Sharing Video Clips with iphoto

When I import video clips into iphoto everything works perfect. I can view and hear video. But when I share or export with QT Pro I lose the audio track. I am using a Sony Cyber-shot digital camera. I have searched and searched but I cannot find an answer to this question. HELP!

Your Sony camera probably make MPEG-1 files and QuickTime (or any app that uses it) can't extract audio from these "muxed" file formats.
Download and install MPEG Streamclip (free). It can convert your .mpg files to other formats (.dv for iMovie or iDVD). Audio track comes along, too.
If your camera creates MPEG-2 formats you'll also need the MPEG-2 Playback Component (sold at the Apple Store for $20).

Why is a video clip from iphoto not compatible with imovie?

i have a video clip in iphoto and when i try to add it by dragging it into the videos in imovie, it says "the file will not be imported. it is not compatible with imovie". this video clip was taken with my friend's point and shoot type camera, then put on her computer, then put on a flash drive, then put on my computer. thank you so much for any help!

Welcome to iMovie Discussions.
Some "..point and shoot.." cameras create movies in an iMovie-compatible ".mov" format, but others create .avi files, or they record in the MPEG-1 format which iMovie can't unscramble.
Not all point and shoot movies are compatible with iMovie, even if they play using Apple's QuickTime movie player which iPhoto relies on.
These non-compatible movies need to be converted to .mov format, or some other compatible format such as DV or AIC, before trying to import them into iMovie. If you have QuickTime Pro, you can just open the movie clips and then use 'Export' to save them in the .mov format.
..More details from me - or others - later; I'm dashing out right now for a bite to eat..

Is it possible to rotate a video clip in iphoto? Thanks.

I recorded a video clip with the camera on it's side and once uploaded to iphoto it found that it was still on it's side and the 'rotate' button at the bottom is not lit up. Is it possible to rotate? Thanks, I would appreciate your help!

No. You'll need to use Quicktime Player to rotate and export as a new file. It's explained my léonie in this topic: Movie clip rotation

How do I import video clips from iPhoto if it doesn't recognize the video clips in iMoive

I'm trying to make a movie using iMovie and I recorded some clips using a Sony Digital Camera and iMovie won't let me upload the video clips from iPhoto. I try to import them but when i try to click on the file, it won't let me. Like its not bold like other files (It will let me upload video that were taken with my iPhone) I have iMovie 09.
What do I need to do?
Thanks!

Do you plan to put each video clip in iDVD to be playes separately? If so then here's how:
1 - open iDVD and select your theme.
2 - click on the Media button at the bottom right and then on the Photo button at the top.
3 - in the search window type in ".mov" (or the extension of the video clips you plan to use).
4 - all of the video clips with the extension you entered will be displayed and you can drag them into the menu area at the left.
Another way would be to put all of the video clips in an Album and click on that album to view and drag the clips:
Remember, the order that they are added to the menu will be the order that the buttons will highlight when you scroll thru the buttons with a DVD player remote.
This will give you a menu with a separate button for each video clip (up to 12 in a menu with some themes).
If you want to play all of the clips one after another you could create a slideshow in iDVD with the "+" button at the bottom and drag the video clips into the slideshow as you would still photos. Set the slide duration to anything but manual and don't apply any transition.
That will let you play all of the clips sequentially.

I don't want to import video clips from iPhoto!

iMovie automatically imports video clips from iPhoto, and I don't need or want this to be done. I don't want to delete or move those clips from iPhoto, so is there a way to prevent the automatic transfer?

Go to your Hotmail account on the web (NOT in mail), make a new folder (or folders) for the mail you want to keep and move the messages into it.
Mail (and all other email clients) will download all messages in the inbox unless previously downloaded. That means downloaded with the client you are attaching now.
Until that is done do not setup the account in mail.

I am having trouble dragging a video clip from iPhoto to iMovie.

I am having trouble dragging a dropping a video clip from IPhoto to IMovie. Has anyone done this? Is this even possible?

I had this problem too, and I don't think it is possible; I'm pretty sure the only videos you can put on iMovie are ones you record with the built in camera on the computer, or a video camera.

I have video clips with 4 channels of audio, I can only hear audio recorded on channel one, how do I hear the other channels......?

I have video clips with 4 channels of audio, I can only hear audio recorded on channel one, how do I hear the other channels......?

What version of Premiere Elements and on what computer operating system?     Elements 13 on Windows 7
What is the brand/model/settings of the camera that recorded these videos?        ony PMW 320
When you import them into your Premiere Elements project, what does Premiere Elements Properties for that import give for
the audio description in the way of number of channels? If you open the Audio Meter (Window Menu/Audio Meters) and you play back
the video in the Premiere Elements Editor, how many channels does the Audio Meter display?
I just drag and drop video and when playing back only channel 1 will appear
What is your intended export for this video in terms of audio as well as video compression and formats?    MP4
I think you can only use audio if it's recorded on channel 1 or it does not recognize it.
Thanks for the help if possible,Kevin416 873 8374

Does version 12 support producing video clip with AMR audio codec?

From some documents i used as reference to proceude some videos for my phone Premiere Elements 8 can produce video clips with AMR audio codec. I bought today the Premiere elements 12 but I can not find a way to set AMR audio codec for my video clip. Only AAC audio codec seems available. Is it possible to add AMR codec to 12 version?

Neurona17
Adobe typically supports only current version, and, if you purchased from it, is strict on "within 30 days of purchase": for money back on that current version purchase. I do not believe such a thing as a "change the license for other earlier release such as 8 or 9" exists at Adobe. But, you could ask. If you wish to purchase one of those earlier versions that supports AMR export, you might still find some online.
Is the before import conversion of AMR to WAV a viable alternative?
You wrote
Unfortunately so far I have not been able to generate any useful video clip for my system with this 12 version.
Is this in regard to the AMR requirement or to any video without the AMR audio?
Online I have seen that there is a download for the AMR audio codec. Does your system now show that you have such a codec installed on your computer. If not, I am not sure if download of this codec would place it in the Premiere Elements Publish+Share export settings choices, similar to import of some .avi video codecs. (Sometimes 3rd party codecs can create problem, so proceed with caution if you pursue that AMR audio codec idea.
Please update us on your progress when you get a chance.
Thanks.

How do i import video clips from iphoto to iMovie

how do i import video clips from iPhoto to iMovie

I've found dragging & dropping onto desktop & then drag & drop into iMovie works okay

I recently loaded Snow Leopard. I have iPhoto 08. I can no longer play the video clips in iPhoto.

I recently loaded Snow Leopard on my iMac. I have iPhoto 08. I am now unable to run the video clips in iPhoto.

Upgrade iPhoto.

Insert a video clip with audio in a sequence

I've created a sequence out of three subclips and renamed and saved it. When I try to add another video clip with audio to the end of the last subclip in the sequence it only adds the video, not the audio.
Please advise

Edit the video with sound to your timeline, when you are ready to replace the video with pictures, lock the audio tracks by clicking on the locks at the left side of the timeline:
Clicking on the locks will lock the tracks and will protect them from being affected when you replace the video with pictures.
Remember to unlock them when you want to edit or add more audio to the sequence.

Capturing Video Clip with iSight(?)

Is it possable to capture a video clip with the built in iSight?
Ypo be played back in Quicktime, etc?

Hello polevod & Hilton,
Nice response polevod. And Welcome to Apple Discussions!
For Hilton, in addition to the above suggestions, I personally use EvoCam for capture of our family weekend iChat's. It's a try before you buy app that is well worth the $25 registration fee. Been in use for almost 2 years and all app's should be so simple to use. Good Luck, and be sure and check back to let us know how you make out.
Respectfully,
Bill Gallagher
