When exporting to Quick Time I get an error message: error user parameters list. How do I fix this? I am not using the hard drive, not a portable, and have scanned my computer.

How to set QuickTime export setting to 1080p as default? Thank you! ;-)

HI there,
I was wondering how to set the export settings to 1080p when exporting a video (after trimming for instance)...
It is set to "Movie" by default, I'm not to sure what resolution or data rate "Movie" format is (identical to original file)... since according to apple the other export options are:
Thanks.

Cool, so would it be the same if I save the file as "Movie" or "1080p" once I've trimmed the original file?
No, the 1080p option would re-compress the file as a 1080p H.264/AAC file. This means the compression format may be chaged from its original compression format and that the quality MAY be reduced due to the process of recompression. Basically, it all depends on what the original compression format, settings, and quality were like to begin with. If the original data was in a low compression editing format, then recompressing the data to H.264/AAC should produce a much smaller file with little or no loss in visual quality while recompressing a high compression format may produce little or now change in the file size but noticeably reduce the visual quality. Since "quality" is a highly subjective term, you should really be running your own tests to see which output you prefer rather than asking for opinions from others here.
Also, my question was if I could change the default export settings:
Depends on what you mean by "change" the default settings. The Apple H.264 presets are context adaptive in nature. They are, within certain limits, self-adjusting depending on the video content being transcoded and the specific preset selected. For instance, small target dispay dimensions will produce lower average data rates which means the final file will be smaller but you cannot manually change the frame rate, set key frame frequency, set a/v data rate limits, create custom anamorphic encodes, manually set the profile/level combination, set the entropy mode, etc.

Quicktime Export options are missing (only in AME)

Hey,
I already searched around for a while and also found another thread in this board, as well some info in the official documentation, saying that AME only installs certain export options, if it's not installed within the proper package of applications (like premiere or after effects).
Well, I did install it as part of the Master Collection, and also have both Premiere and AFX up and running.
The Initial install was a horrible procedure, since there was still some photoshop cs6 beta file lurking around and just wouldnt leave, even with the CS cleaner tool.
When I finally managed to install CS6, everything worked fine, except one major flaw.. When I export a file from premiere as a quicktime, everyhting works as it should. But when I hit "send to AME", the quicktime preset just doesnt make it's way over to the media encoder, but I have only h264 and 4 other formats to choose from. Just no QT available. (I'm on a mac).
I already tried installing the entire package over the original installation, but it didnt help. I also have CS6 installed on my macbook, where everything works perfectly fine. I compared the media encoder folder on both machines and it's identical in size. In the library I wasn't able to find any media encoder related files.
Please, does anyone have any Idea how to get QT export in ame up and running again without going through a complete cleansing of my system and reinstall the whole package? I'm in the middle of a project now and would really like to have it working.
(it worked before in cs5, btw)

Just like chfilm I have the same problem with AME CS6 on Mavericks.
I came here after having resolved another problem, namely because Premiere Pro (PP)
and AME were not even launching as soon as the Quick Time Bundle Host were being loaded on the splash screen – same thing happened with PP (see screenshot).
A Forum discussion for that is here: https://forums.adobe.com/message/5521256
I followed the correct answer suggestion and deleted two files in AME as well as in PP.
They were called "ExporterQuicktimeHost.bundle and ImporterQuicktimeHost.bundle".
Except, that I didn't have a file called "ImporterQuicktimeHost.bundle" but a plain "ImporterQuickTime.bundle".
Since the Quicktime Presets in AME are now missing, I think that this problem is related to the problem of this thread.
Here is what I tried to resolve the case of the missing presets:
- I tried out the solutions under post #8 (the correct answer)
- and #25 by leejk of this thread.
Neither worked for me.
- I also tried uninstalling the whole adobe suite and used the Adobe Cloud Cleaner Tool and then reinstalled the Adobe Suite.
Nothing changed.
- With the newly installed Adobe Suite, I followed post #4 of this thread Uninstalling AME CC
to make sure, my files weren't corrupted. (If you look into the thread: instead of a version 7.0 I had a version 6.0.)
Btw: Before uninstalling the whole suite, every application, including PP worked – except of AME.

Using Quicktime Export option in a background thread?

Hi,
Take a look at this thread in the Applescript forum for sample code to export files via QT Pro.

Sequence compression setting / Quicktime Export

Is there any advantage to changing the sequence compression setting to "None" and re-rendering before exporting a sequence using DVCAM footage captured from a DSR30 via FireWire? My normal compression setting is DV/DVCPRO.
How about leaving the sequence settings at DV/DVCPRO and changing the Quicktime export setting from "current settings" to "uncompressed 10 bit" or 8 bit?
I'm still getting artifacting when compressing to MPEG2, even with compression markers at transitions and encoding at 2-pass VBR and burning the DVD at 1x.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

I decided to check out the Compressor discussion group - full of near suicides like me bemoaning the gross infusion of MPEG2 artifacting after upgrading to Compressor 2.
Appparently, popular opinion says the VBR feature is faulty and Apple is waiting until mutiny ensues before addressing the problem.
So I have encoded at 1-pass, 7.2 bitrate, best motion estimator, segmenting OFF, using Compressor, as suggested by some kind soul in the group, and then importing into DVDSP.
I then burned the DVD and viewed it on my bigass TV.
NO ARTIFACTING! Plus compressor took SIX minutes to MPEG2 the 40-minute FCP movie. And, yes you can see in the Compressor preview window that FCP has inserted compression markers at all edit points.
So by selecting settings for what Apple terms lower quality output, I get higher quality output in a fraction of the compression time!
I am fearful Apple is hiring enemy combatant programmers, lowering the morale of editors worldwide by making their work look like poo.

Quicktime export options, want 480x360, can I????

Currently Iphoto 5 when you go to (share > export) to export to quicktime it allows 3 sizes. Small (240x180) Medium (320x240) and Large (760x480).
Since I like to use 480x360 I have to go through a second process and export from quicktime again to get that size.
Is there any way to add this option to Iphoto5 so that it exports directly out of Iphoto in that size or is something I'm missing?

idealconcepts:
No. Even iPhoto 6 has only those three options. You may have to create your slideshow in iMovie where you have greater control over the exported size.

Need help setting export options

I'm working on replacing our old RDC component with the new Java SDK.
I purchased Crystal Reports 2008 and downloaded the SDK. Now I'm trying to run a simple example exporting a report to word. I've built it off of the other export examples I've seen on the site. None of them seem to give me an up to date example of how to set export options though.
Exporting seems to work when I export using this:
ByteArrayInputStream byteArrayInputStream = (ByteArrayInputStream) report.getPrintOutputController().export(ReportExportFormat.MSWord);
But not when I do this:
ExportOptions opt = new ExportOptions();
opt.setExportFormatType(ReportExportFormat.MSWord);
RTFWordExportFormatOptions myOptions = new RTFWordExportFormatOptions();
opt.setFormatOptions(myOptions);
ByteArrayInputStream byteArrayInputStream = (ByteArrayInputStream) report.getPrintOutputController().export(opt);
Is there something I'm missing? I want to be able to explicitly set my export options - especially for other export formats like excel.

Unfortunately I must still be doing something wrong. The csv is exported but it comes back with gibberish characters in the file instead of what is in my Crystal. PDF comes back fine but the other export formats (xls, doc, csv, etc.) all come back with gibberish characters.
Here is an example of the csv export code I'm using::
ExportOptions opt = new ExportOptions();
CharacterSeparatedValuesExportFormatOptions csvOptions = new CharacterSeparatedValuesExportFormatOptions();
csvOptions.setSeparator(",");
csvOptions.setDelimiter("\"");
opt.setExportFormatType(ReportExportFormat.characterSeparatedValues);
opt.setFormatOptions(csvOptions);
ByteArrayInputStream byteArrayInputStream = (ByteArrayInputStream) report.getPrintOutputController().export(opt);
I don't believe I can use ReportExportControl - it doesn't seem to be a part of the SDK I downloaded(but maybe I'm missing something) - I need the SDK version for Crystal Reports 2008.
I do have Microsoft Office 2003. Maybe this is causing issues?

EPub object export options CS6

Hi,
Is it true that it is not possible to set object export options as part
of an object style?
Ariel

Thanks Steve.
Seems a bit feeble.
I'm thinking of writing a script, in that case. Select an object. Run
the script. Select an object style from the list the script gives you.
Click OK (or Done). Now all objects that have the selected style applied
will have the object export options of the selected object applied to them.
What do you think?

Export Quicktime movie is not rendering video track, just the audio track. However, everything works when using Quicktime Conversion menu options. What is wrong with my setting for Export Quicktime movie?

When you converted the original files via MPEG Streamclip, what did you convert them to?
Have you tried trashing your preferences in FCP? Trashing FCP prefs is usually the first step when FCP is performing strangely.

It will allow you to archive your current preferences if you wish to restore them later.

Quicktime 7.1.3 not showing the Flash FLV Exporter option.

I have a macbook with FCP 5.1.2, Quicktime 7.1.3 and Flash Pro 8 installed.
The same as with my G5, but different release of FCP (FCP 4.5 HD in G5)
On my G5 all is fine. I see the FLV export plug in.
The problem is in my Macbook : I can't see the FLV export plug option in Quicktime (export) nor in FCP (file>export>via Qt conversion).
I've made the same installation process in both machines.
Perhaps a problem with the Flash 8 Professional installation on Intel Macs ?
(That installation was well finished)
Anyway, I can encode with the FLV standalone encoder that comes with Flash 8 pro, but sometimes the plug in is a shortcut way to get a FLV file on the fly.
Could anyone help me to resolve that situation ?
Many thanks in advance. I always got a solution from you Guys!
Daniel

QuickTimeKirk, thanks for the reply.
Yes, I think as you that the problem is from FLV exporter from Flash 8. It is not Universal. I will not go backward with QT. I prefer to wait until the UB Flash 8 Pro see the light..... or Flash Pro 9 (for sure it will be Universal)
Thanks again !

Adding several audio tracks to quicktime export setting .

I am trying to add several tracks of music to a quicktime movie , created using the export option from iPhoto, but it will only play one track even though I selected 4 tracks and made them default .
Any genius out there ?
Thank you

Are any of these tracks DRM tracks from the iTunes store? That will certainly kill the process. Others have reported similar issues but there's not been a one size fits all fix.
There is a workaround but requires a little extra work. Join the 4 tracks into one new track with either Garageband or another audio editor like the free Audacity. Then add the new track to iTunes and into the slideshow.
You can search this forum for "slideshow music" to get other posts on the subject and some possible solutions to try.

What export options in Quicktime Pro or Final Cut Pro should I select to export HDV video in .MOV files to highest quality Windows-compatible files?

I have some HDV video files imported through iMovie to .MOV files with Apple Intermediate Codec.
I need to convert these to Windows compatible video files of the highest possible ( least loss) quality. What export options in Final Cut Pro or in Quicktime Pro should I select? The codex in the converted files must not be Apple Intermediate Codec, for which there is no Windows version.

Okay, I read the whole Flip4Mac website.
Flip4Mac is an application for Apple computers.
Perhaps my question was unclear. When I posed it I was thinking of asking somebody with an Apple shop to do the conversion for me, and wanted advice on settings for his QUicktime Pro /Final Cut Pro that would produce the highest quality Windows -compatible files.
The Windows version of Quicktime will not play Quicktime files with Apple Intermediate Codec. You get black screen video, although the audio does come through.
So here's what I need: I need a Windows application that will transcode Quicktime files in Apple Intermediate Codec, with no loss or very little loss, to WIndows-compatible files. All Windows, all the time. Thank you.

Best export options in QuickTime Pro to burn a dvd with?

I'm trying without luck to establish a workflow where i edit original content (combine image and sound, add credits) in QuickTime Pro then i need to burn the resulting movie to a dvd. This seems near to impossible.
I have finally figured out i need third party software to do more converting before it can be burned (i worry that every conversion robs a bit more quality - i had to do conversions initially to get my content from dvd given to me by the videographer or from my VHS-to-DVD converter into QT Pro, what a pain!). So i've got something called DVDFlick to convert into ISO image containing VOB structure, then use ImgBurn to actually burn the ISO image to cd, to get a playable dvd.
What i can't figure out is what is the proper format to export out of QT Pro? I tried DV/DVPRO and AVI both, but those resulted ultimately in audio skips on my commercial dvd players, as well as a movie that won't play the audio in Windows Media Player, but will in other DVD software players.
I was under the impression i needed to export as MPEG-2, but i can't find that anywhere in QT Pro export options. I notice there is an MPEG-2 add-on for Windows from Apple Store, but it only talks about playback from dvd, not going in the opposite direction like i am, where i want to save as MPEG-2 from Quicktime Pro. Please help make sense of all this
-steve

Sorry, but you cannot export from QuickTime as MPEG-2. As you discovered, the MPEG-2 Playback Component is, as the name implies, for playback only. You'll need to work with the developer of your DVD creation software to determine why you're getting audio skips. Normally a DV export works well, but as they say, your mileage may vary. Any export will depend on the quality of the source media. You may need to look into different software for creating and burning your DVDs if DVDFlick continues to give you problems.

Quicktime Pro closes out when i click on Export:Options:Settings

Hi I have a Latitued D630 Laptop running Windows XP pro with a Nvidia Quadro NVS 135m graphics card. When I go to File, export, options, and click on any of the options under video quicktime will close completly out. I remember when i first installed quicktime and opened it up it gave me an error that talking about the buffer. I am no longer to get the error message to research it online.
I narrowed it down to my graphics card because if i uninstall my graphics card and try the same steps it works just fine. I have tried to find older drivers for my graphics card and they all do the same thing. I called dell on the issue and they have no clue.

+I have a Latitued D630 Laptop running Windows XP pro with a Nvidia Quadro NVS 135m graphics card. When I go to File, export, options, and click on any of the options under video quicktime will close completly out.+
Some people with that issue have reported that they can get past that crash if they go into their QuickTime Control panel (Advanced tab), and select "Safe mode (GDI only)". (Click OK and restart QuickTime after making the settings change.
Does that bring any relief in your case?
