Sharing large [3.5 gb] videos for viewing on other computers [for sending overseas on flashdrives]

I've made a video of my tour of Andalucia, and I'd like to share it with my companions on the tour. I've convinced PE 12 to burn a BluRay disc that looks excellent for viewing at home. Now I'd like to make a HD version that I can copy to flashdrives and send overseas. So far, however, I can't figure out what settings to use for high quality. Can anyone in the PE community help?
Thanks,
Hugh Goodheart

"Your description suggests a network problem, with the
networking software losing track of the fact the file is already
open.
That said, you might find it useful to store documents intended for
shared editing in a OneDrive folder. This is designed to allow two or more
people can edit a word document concurrently.
Once you have OneDrive
operational, click OneDrive in the header of a SharePoint or Office 365 site,
then click the ellipsis (…) to the right of the entry. Then click ‘Share’ and
invite the other user to view or edit the document, and click ‘Share’ once more.
To add to the list of people already sharing a document, click the ‘Shared with’
icon in the ‘Sharing’ column and invite the additional person to view or edit
the document, and click ‘Share’ once more.
When someone invites you to
share a document, you’ll typically receive an email notification with a link to
the document. Clicking the link opens the document. If you have edit permission,
your changes are automatically saved.

How do I unlock a file for viewing by other computers

Please be kind, I'm not a computer whiz!! I am trying to share a file between computers (both Mac's). I have gone to the file sharing folder under preferences and checked the boxes I wanted (or thought) would allow me to do this. I can access the other computer but when I click on the file that I want to look at I get the message "unable to access file because you do not have permission to view". Well, that stinks. Is there a way to "unlock" that file for sharing purposes? I need to put that file on my iPad as well as my new MacBook Pro

Pooper: A .cws file is a ClarisWorks or AppleWorks template: a file that, when you double-click it, causes the parent application (C'Wks or A'Wks) to create a new file that is an exact duplicate of the template file, except that it's unlocked and ready to have text entered into it. The template file is locked, not by using the "locked" checkbox, but by virtue of being a template instead of a document. A template is locked by definition, so you won't change it by mistake, and can use it over and over as the basis for many new documents.
Instead of saving all your documents as templates, save them as documents. In AppleWorks or ClarisWorks, this will result in their having .cwk instead of .cws as a filename extension. The necessary options can be found in the "Save" and/or "Save As..." dialog boxes in Appleworks or ClarisWorks — probably in a pull-down file format menu. I don't use those apps myself, so I'm not certain what those dialog boxes look like in them.
The issue of other people not being able to open the files you email to them is unrelated. Anyone who doesn't have AppleWorks or ClarisWorks will be unable to open files that are written in its native formats. If you trashed your copy of AppleWorks/ClarisWorks, you wouldn't be able to open them yourself. Files that you will want to share with people who don't have A'Wks/C'Wks should be saved in a universal file format such as RTF or plain text.

Best view for Video for 5800

Kindly let me know in which resolution should i convert video for Nokia 5800 so that it can be viewed perfectly.
e.g.: 320 x 240, 320 x 480, 320 x 200, 240 x 180.
Also audio quality in what Kbps ? shouls i keep while converting.
I had converted 1 video it seems video is stretch.

The 5800 records video in VGA 640x480, so that ought to be your benchmark. The 5800 screen is 640x360 pixels in landscape mode, effectively therefore widescreen, but when I tested this model I had no issue watching videos that I had converted to MP4 using WinAVI so the screen should not be causing the distortion.
I'm not a video expert and I have my software on standard settings so I can't offer much further advice on conversion configuration.

Getting videos for web viewing right

Using Xserver on Quad Mac G5 and QTSS. I would like to stream videos like the one in Apples live events. Quite impressive. http://www.apple.com/quicktime/qtv/mwsf08/
Using FCP pro 5.1.4 compressor 2.3 and selecting QT 7 for download. Using this on a web site produces less than desirable results. Usually blurry video or I get the "Q" in the movie template of iWeb and have to wait some time for it to download to start playing.
What are the tools used to create the high quality videos in these live events?

I'm tagging this one also.. I'm a new convert to the Mac (one more sleep until Mac Pro deliery!!). I normally do 10 megs for 2 minutes of 640X480 WMV video for web delivery and thought that was good when editing on the PC.. until I started to see some of these tech tutorials also.. and yeah.. crisp! But more importantly, is that thought the 100% viewing size might be on the smaller size, there isn't a lot of visual quality loss when expanding the view to 200% or more.. Now THAT was impressive..
I want to learn all of this.. =) So much stuff, so little time.. sigh

I am trying to use my IPAD to video students in my conducting class, then email them the video for self evaluation. However, many of the video clips are too long to email. Is there anyway to compress the video clips and still email them so they can view

I am trying to use my IPAD to video students in my conducting class, then email them the video for self evaluation. However, many of the clips are too long to send. Is there a way I can compress the clips and still send them via email so they can open and them using Quicken?
Muzakmn

It depends on the clips' content, their current format, and how much you would need to compress them, but in most cases and with most email systems, it's difficult to impossible to compress a clip enough to be able to get it through the attachment size limits of most email providers and still have the video be comprehensible. You'll probably need to find a web site or other method where you could post the videos for download by the students.
You can try compression and trimming, though, and see if you can get the video small enough to email. An attachment often has to be 3MB or less to go through, though it depends entirely on the email systems on both ends. If you look to the right under "more like this" you'll find similar threads on the subject.

Shared Photo Stream not showing video on Mac

Hi,
I can now see videos in my shared Photo Stream using IOS7 so that seems to be working fine. I can also see the video when viewing the public website for the shared Photo Stream. However, for the same shared Photo Stream I cannot see the video on my Mac using iPhoto. Is that supposed to work now too?
Thanks,

I am not aware that video is supported - and do not find any documentation saying so - there is documentation updated on Sept 18 saying that it does not - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486
Which photo formats does My Photo Stream support?
My Photo Stream supports JPEG, TIFF, PNG, and most RAW photo formats. My Photo Stream does not work with video.
Wherer are you seeing that it is supported?
I do see some editorial material indicating that it is and in those there is no mention o fthe Ma - only IOS 7 and Apple TV version 6
http://teachmeios.com/apple-introduces-video-sharing-via-photo-stream-in-ios-7-a nd-apple-tv-6-0/
So I'm not sure how it is suppose tto work but for not it appears that it is not for the Mac based on the limited info I've found

Lip-Synced Music Videos for YouTube?

I have been creating music for 20 years (home studio), and would like to create videos for some of my original songs (currently on mp3 or wav files), then upload to YouTube. I know virtually nothing about video or video editing. I was wondering if Premiere Elements would be a good editing application for my purposes. For each video, someone would film multiple video takes of me lip-syncing to a pre-recorded song. Is Premiere Elements sophisticated or precise enough to allow excellent synchronization between separate video clips and an audio track for lip-syncing purposes? Would you recommend something else (for PC)? Thanks.
Greg

Greg,
The ONLY advantage to PrPro in your stated need, is to do the Audio editing in Audio Units, but then as you are working in Audio already, you probably have a favorite DAW, and that will give you even more control. That is NOT to say that PrPro does not have other pluses, but just not that would likely apply here. Hey, one's gotta' get something for the extra $600, right?
I'd get the trial of PrE 9.0, and test with it. There are a few limitations on certain formats, but it's pretty full-featured for a trial. Just know that it will place a watermark on the Exported/Shared footage, so you cannot deliver/upload that, and get clean, watermark-free footage.
Unless I missed something (I do most of my editing in PrPro, so do not put my PrE through all of its paces), the operations will be almost identical.
For syncing, just remember to work in Timeline View Mode (only way to work in PrPro), and turn Snap OFF (the S key togglesn Snap), otherwise, you will be trying to force little increments, and the Audio will jump about, and Snap onto cuts, etc. Just toggle it back on, when you go back to the Video editing, as it makes general alignment much easier.
If one is doing any Speed change, PrPro might be a bit easier, and offer more control, but not THAT much.
Now, if you do not have a DAW, that you love, then you might consider the CS5.5 Production Premium suite, with Audition included. One can easily do some pretty heavy-duty Audio work in that program. My workflow would be to edit the Video, and then Import the Audio and the Video into Audition, where I would tweak the Audio to perfectly (within that 1 Frame for Video), while watching the Video. Audition will offer the ability to work with Envelopes for the Audio, and adjust the Speed almost infinitely, while maintaining Pitch. However, that is not a cheap suite, and there will be a bit of a learning curve, if one has not used Audition, or a similar DAW before.
Good luck, and let us know how the PrE trial works out.

Compressing Video for DVD Burn Makes Text Look jagged

Hello,
I'm currently at the final steps of a lengthy video production project and am struggling to make the text elements of my finished video display correctly after compression prior to burning it to DVD.
I create and produce music for a living and don't have nearly as much experience with video editing. I'm a bit new to all of this and am using FCE 4.0.1 to create my video & Compressor and DVD Studio Pro 2 to compress and author video for DVD.
*My main issue is this:*
I'm using an imported still image as the title card for my film. It's a mixture of large plain Helvetica Neu font text with some additional stylized lettering created in Photoshop (which is why I'm not using FCE's built-in text generators for the title card). The typography isn't very wild and crazy, it's basically big bold letters and a few gentle curves. I exported the image (1200x600) from Photoshop as a .png and imported it into FCE.
When I export my finished video file (.png title card and all) out of FCE, I export it as a raw uncompressed Quicktime file:
Apple Intermediate Codec 1440x1080i
29.97 fps
Pixel Aspect Ratio: HD (1440x1080) (Anamorphic not checked).
Field Dominance: Upper (Odd).
(It displays in quicktime at 1920x1080 though.)
After initially exporting from FCE, the title card image and all the other text in my movie created from FCE's built-in text generators look fine. It's only after I compress the finished movie in DVD Studio Pro or Compressor that I get jagged looking edges on the curves of my letters, primarily the title card image (the text generated by FCE's generators holds up okay).
In compressor I'm using the "MPEG-2 6.2 Mbps 2-pass settings for DVD" preset and in DVD Studio Pro. Using '2 pass VBR', 'Best' motion tracking, 'best' and 'highest quality' on all the compression settings I can find. I'm encoding at a total rate of 6.5Mb/sec max and 6Mb/sec average. These are standards for compressing to DVD and since I'm preparing a master for reproduction, I've been told I shouldn't increase the data rate over this or I'll run into player compatibility issues down the line.
Any ideas on how I can make this text image last through the compression process and still look clean and crisp without having to increase the data rate of compression? I'm going to play with different file formats for now, but it that doesn't work I don't know where to go from there.
Thank you for any help insights you can provide.

I started with a variety of HD raw footage (most of it gathered on Canon 5D Mkii SLR Digital camera in the form of: H.624 1920x1080) but converted all my raw footage prior to editing into:
Apple Intermediate Codec 1440x1080i
29.97 fps
Pixel Aspect Ratio: HD (1440x1080) (Anamorphic not checked).
Field Dominance: Upper (Odd).
I edited everything in Final Cut Express 4.0.1 using the AVCHD Apple Intermediate Codec 1440x1080i60 at 29.97 fps sequence preset.
When I finished editing all my video I exported it as a raw uncompressed quicktime file which is also:
Apple Intermediate Codec 1440x1080i
29.97 fps
Pixel Aspect Ratio: HD (1440x1080) (Anamorphic not checked).
Field Dominance: Upper (Odd).
But when played in quicktime this finished video displays at 1920x1080, which I'm happy with. (I'm assuming this is the proper behavior of Apple Intermediate Codec? It seemed to take 1920x1080 footage, converted it to 1440x1080, and then spit it back out as 1920x1080 after the whole editing process.)
But seeing as how my issue is with an image file I'm creating in Photoshop and importing into my video sequence, I don't quite understand how the rest of my footage would really effect it. I've made sure to create the image using the same dimensions and pixel aspect ratio as my sequence frames by using one of the standard Photoshop screen templates (HD widescreen 1440x1080). I save my title card image as a non-interlaced .png file and import it into FCE.
When I place the imported image on the timeline, FCE doesn't resize it because it matches the frame dimensions of the sequence. When I view the image at 100% in FCE's viewer all of the image's lines, curves, and shapes display properly as they appear in my original photoshop file.
But for some reason FCE treats this imported .png image file as a 'rendered proxy.' So while it looks fine in FCE prior to rendering and exporting, when I export the video sequence containing this newly imported title card image, the resulting uncompressed quicktime file contains jagged horizontal lines across some of the characters in the title card image. It almost looks as if there's some interlacing issue going on.
However after much experimentation and trial and error I landed on a custom compression setting in Compressor that seemed to take care of this issue. I did as you recommended and selected a high quality 7.5 Mbps encoding preset (7.5 Mbps max/6.4 Mbps average), but noticed a 2 pass VBR rendered better results. What really seemed to do the trick was adding a deinterlace filter to the compression preset, and that miraculously seemed to eliminate the jagged lines in my title card image, restoring it to its original appearance (at least during my initial inspection in Compressor's preview mode).
After letting Compressor crank away, I looked at the finished compressed video in quicktime and the jagged interlaced-looking lines in my title card image have returned. Compressor's preview was somehow misguided.
Now my plan is to burn this compressed video to a DVD and view it on a TV to see if maybe these jagged lines in the final compressed version are only being caused by viewing on my computer's monitor. I'm hoping this is the case, otherwise I'm at a loss of what to do next.
If you need any more details please let me know. Otherwise I hope this is enough to give you a better idea of what issues I'm dealing with.
Thanks again for your insights.

Merely clicking the Preview icon in the Dock doesn't cause it to open anything, unless you had one or more windows open the last time it quit.
If you're sure you've installed the latest version of Flash, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test.
1. If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, triple-click the line below to select it:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
Services ▹ Open
from the contextual menu. A folder should open. If there is more than one item in the folder with the words "Flash Player" (not "flashplayer") in the name, open the respective Info windows, check the version numbers, and delete all except the latest. You may be prompted for your login password. If you get the same error after doing that, re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from this page:
Adobe - Install Adobe Flash Player
Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
2. If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked Enable plug-ins.
3. Select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.
4. In the Safari preference window, select
Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
Close the window. Then select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.

Making an explanatory video for users of Azure

I went to MSDN to post a question to a forum on Azure, but when I click 'ask a question' it takes me here to "machine learning" instead of to "features", "pricing" etc..
Anyway, the question is this. I had a trial version of Azure, and I put up maybe 800 meg of videos and I also used Azure media services to get URLS to them that I could view in a webpage.
I looked at my costs (my bill), and it looked like I was only getting charged about a dollar a month.
I couldn't believe this, and since I also did not know how to terminate my account, or even delete the storage that I was using up, I just stopped paying.
Now, I want my website users to get their own storage from Microsoft, and I want to give them an explanatory video that shows them how to use Azure media services so that they can store their own videos, and also post the URL to my website, where they can
watch those videos with some features added by my website.
But I need to be sure I understand the billing, before I create this tutorial video for them.
If they put up perhaps 40 videos of 100 meg each (4000 meg is about 4 Gigabytes) and use the media services etc. Are they really only going to be charged a few dollars a month?
Thanks,

Hi Gidmaestro,
A Media Service account is tightly coupled with one (or more) storage accounts. If you already have a storage account, you may choose to assign it to your new Media Service account. Please refer to
http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/details/storage/ for the azure storage billing details.

Is there a way to "center" video for DVD distribution?

This may be a long story so hear me out...
For the past year or so, after every great sports win by my alma mater Michigan State University I make a highlight video for web distribution. My workflow for doing so goes like this:
1. Record straight to DVD from Tivo or live TV using Panasonic ES10 recorder
2. Extract clips using Cinematize (uncompressed full quality setting, automatic adjustment 640x480)
3. Import clips into Final Cut Pro and edit
4. Export full quality uncompressed Quicktime
5. Export H.264 for web viewing
Well this work has found the attention of someone in the East Lansing (where MSU is) city council. They would like me to throw together a short little video to be played at bars in East Lansing after the MSU mens basketball tournament games.
I have done a few tests simply taking the uncompressed Final Cut exports and making a DVD in iDVD out of them. The results, while OK, aren't the best. I'm thinking there isn't much I can do there because I'm not working with the best source material (going through a number of compressions - Tivo, DVD recorder, iDVD, etc).
But one thing I did notice though is my fancy iDVD created menu looked pretty slick with the video scaled down. The video was crisp and clear.
Is there a way to scale my video down so that it doesn't play full screen? Almost doing a 4-sided letterbox. I'm envisioning the video scaled down, centered on the TV.

Yes, I think I understand what you want to do...
You can scale the video down or up to pretty much any size you would want to use;
When your video is in the timeline, double click it, and it will open in one of the video preview windows (I belive its called the "viewer" window), for me on my dual screen, its the one on the left;
A few tabs will appear at the top of the the Viewer window, Video, Filters and Motion; Click on the motion Tab...
When there the video will disappear a time line where keyframes live will appear, since you have not used key frames in this clip for motion, there will not be any there;
You will see to the left of this a few pull downs, Basic Motion, Crop, Distort, Opacity, Drop Shadow and Time Remap;
When you have the basic Motion twisty selected, you will see, Scale, Rotation, Center and Anchor Point;
The one your interested in for what I belive you wan to do is Scale. You can click in the box that defaults to 100 (meaning 100 percent) and change this to anything you want.
By changing it this once it will make the entire clip play at that new scale. You can get creative and keyframe it over time using the little diamond shape button with the right and left arrow on each side. You can add a key frame at any point int he time line; and it will scale (in this case) to each setting you have set a key for. It interpolates the scale at each point in the time line when you set different scales etc... you can fiddle with this and get some good ideas for other projects if you want;
For what I belive you asked for, no key frame is required as you want it to start and finish att he same reduced scale.
I trust this helps you out, and hopefully I read your question correctly;
p.s. if you leave the Center at 0, and 0 it will be centred, but its important to note you can use that to chance the position of the video in the video frame, again not needed for your request - but handy to know....

Why haven't I been able to watch YouTube videos for months? :(

I'm hoping someone might be able to shed some light on this issue I've been having...
I have an older MacBook Pro (bought July 2007) running OS 10.4.11, that hasn't been able to access YouTube or YouTube videos for the past several months. When trying to access the website on Firefox or Safari, the page takes forever to load and I get the "Connection has timed out" error. I've tried loading it on several different wireless connections, none of which should have any firewalls/proxies set. Embedded YouTube videos don't show up (there's just a blank space where they should be), and embedded HD YouTube videos will show the first frame but will not load or play.
I've never had any problems with YouTube before, but didn't turn my computer on between Feb and May of this year (I was traveling). I figured I must have missed some important update. But I'm currently running the most recent versions of Firefox (3.6.9) and Safari (4.0.3), Adobe Flash (10.1), Quicktime (7.6.4), and Java (v9 for OS 10.4). Updating these hasn't helped any. I also reinstalled Firefox entirely.
I don't have any issues loading any other websites, or playing/viewing other kinds of embedded videos, or any other videos. As far as I can tell, my internet browsers don't have any firewalls or blocks set up. Other laptops and desktops on the same wireless connections I've tried can access the site and embedded videos without issue.
Does anyone have any ideas as to what else I could try? I'd love to be able to get back on YouTube...
thank you in advance!
-Ann

I understand that you can not access youtube website at all .. this can be due to a variety of reasons ..
what you describe looks like a dns resolution error .. try this
go to terminal and type
sudo nano /Private/Etc/Hosts
you will be prompted for your password ..enter it and note that your input won't be visible ..
if all goes well you will see something like this :
# Host Database
# localhost is used to configure the loopback interface
# when the system is booting. Do not change this entry.
127.0.0.1 localhost
255.255.255.255 broadcasthost
::1 localhost
if you see that try adding these lines EXACTLY AS YOU SEE underneath that page
74.125.43.103 youtube.com
74.125.43.103 www.youtube.com
and press control and X together on your keyboard
now back at the terminal type exit and hit return
reboot your machine ..
see how it goes
hope this helps
