Transcoding int 3gp and mp4 format

Hi all,
Is it possible to transcode a given video format to 3gp or mp4 format in java,preferably using jmf.

There is more to a video file then it's extension, lots of codecs out there. I'd like to see native support for more codecs but until that happened. Use a program to convert the videos to MP4.
A great program to do this is which also happens to be free and one of the best programs for conversion is HandBrake. Some advantages, videos play amazing when converted to the native format. If you want you can also scale the video to match the resolution of the phone (800x480) which will produce smaller file allowing you to store more videos on your phone.
You can download it here.

  • 8330 limited to .3gp and .mp4 for video

    It seems to be a well kept secret that the BlackBerry Curve 8330 only supports video formats .3gp and .mp4 Simple Profile (SP).  There have been many forum queries on this subject.  In many cases the person asking has the 8330 and wants to work with .avi files.  The responders often assume .avi will work (since it does with all other Curves) and ends up pointing them down a dead end street.  I also notice that most of the forum queries never finish with a resolution.
    This limitation puts a real damper on my ability to capture video with the 8330 Curve Video Camera and send it to friends and family.  Many of whom are novices at computers.  Requiring them to figure out how to watch a .3gp file is just wrong.   .3gp is the only format in which the Curve Video Camera captures, so when you email it, that is what they get.
    Also, many of the recommended programs such as BlackBerry Video Converter do not work since the output  produces .avi files.   So far, I have struck out completely putting any format of video on the 8330 with BlackBerry Desktop Manager and actually getting it to work.
    I know VLC and Quicktime will play captured 8330 videos (.3gp format).  But how many novice computer users have VLC or Quicktime?  And why should they be required to obtain them when Windows comes with Windows Media Player?
    Can someone explain why the 8330 only supports .3gp and mp4 (limited to mpeg-4 SP (Simple Profile)) when the other Curves (8300, 8310, 8320, 8350i) all support .mp4, m4a, .mov, .3gp, .avi, and .wmv?

    Hi niteshkumar482,
    Welcome to the Nokia forums!
    It plays wmv audio, and mp4 format is just a container. Different mp4 videos may have differing audio and video stream configurations, some may play, some may not.
    As for the MP3, did you perform a hard reset on your device?

  • 3gp videos and mp4s on the iphone

    hi there i did have a samsung d900 with lots of videos on there i have manged to put them on my pc, ok i want to upload them to my i phone though itunes i see a list of videos on there all ready what folder on my pc is it getting this list from as there are vid clips in there i dont want. can i upload and how please anyone help
    also does the iphone upload 3gp and mp4??

    You can just drag and drop your video folder (say from Explorer) over into the iTunes library and the videos will appear in iTunes.
    iTunes will only transfer MPEG4 (and only those coded properly) to the iPhone. There is a full list of specs but in general the max bitrate should be no more than 1500 (1000 is better), with 640 the max resolution.

  • How to make a slide show or edition including mpeg and other formats

    Hi,
    I am i bit puzzled by the use of iphoto/imovie/itunes.
    I have a Sony camera which generates jpg photos and mpg videos; besides, i have 3gp and mp4 videos from cell phones.
    Firstly, i imported all of them to iphoto. I used a automator workflow to help importing from hotsynced Palm centro files, to discover the first problem with the 3gp files: they could not be iported by workflows.
    Still, they could be seen in iphoto, but then i tried to make a slide show. My idea was to put the photos and videos of a certain event to be watched together, or at least to be able to watch the videos in a sequence, without having to click on each one.
    I didnt get it in iphoto, so i switched to imovie. it was even worse, since it cannot import the mpgs and the 3gps (the jpg photos were ok). What could i do about that? is there any converter or other way?
    then i tried the itunes, and it was the opposite: it imported and played in sequence the mpg videos, but not the photos. This is a workaround anyway, since the program expects to play movies, and makes my daughter a "star", but that`s ok, she is one to me.
    i'll be thankful for hints on how to make the imovie compatible with the 3gp and mpgs, or finding some way to do this edition in iphoto or even with itunes.
    regards

    I see, it sounds reasonable , i think i will buy the pro and try.
    QT Pro ($30) and MPEG Streamclip (free) complement each other. In many cases one can do things that the other cannot. For instance, MPEG Stramclip can handle/edit multiplexed formats while QT Pro cannot. QT Pro allows layering of data tracks while Streamclip does not. Streamclip merges file streams more easily than QT Pro but QT Pro allows the "Movie to MPEG-4" export to "passthrough" the video while Streamsclip does not. And so on and so forth...
    I was referring to the mpegs from the Sony camera, of which a have hundreds, shot in the last 3 or 4 years, mainly from my 5-year old daughter. Is the above true to these?
    That still doesn't help. By "sony camera," are you referring to a still digital camera (multiplexed MPEG-1) or a Sony video camcorder taking MPEG-4/AVCHD with AC3 audio in an MPEG wrapper, a Sony DVD/HDD camera storing some kind of MPEG-2/AC3 files. On a Mac, the extension MPG normally refers multiplexed MPEG-1 (or MPEG-1 audio layer) files while MPEG normally refers to multiplexed MPEG-2 video content with MPEG-1, layer 2 audio (MPEG2/MP2) but may also refer to files with MP3 or AC3 files in an MPEG, VOB, or TS wrapper. In addition it may loosely refer to elementary M2V video streams (M2V video file paired with a separate AIFF or AC3 file), a standard MPEG4/AAC file (in an MOV or MP4 wrapper) or a standard H.264/AAC file in MOV, MP4, or M4V wrapper). Since the handling, conversion, editing requirements vary with each type of file, it becomes important to what specific kind of content/file container we are dealing with here.

  • Using Compressor 4, How do you create a droplet to transcode from final cut files to mp4, mp3 and m4v formatting?

    Using Compressor 4, How do you create a droplet to transcode from final cut files to mp4, mp3 and m4v formatting?

    Take a look at this section; it's pretty clear.
    Compressor offers settings for each of the output formats you want. (For example, the m4v sttings for Apple Devices.)
    Good luck.

  • How do I move just a single clip in the project file and then convert that into an Mp4 format?

    Dear Assistance,
    I have a project file open.
    At the bottom  of the screen there is a horizontal film strip of images.  I have cut the images into certain segments.
    I want to select one single segment (about 1 min long) and convert only that selected segment into a mp4 format?
    Kindly inform me how the best way to go about doing that is.
    Thank you,
    Ben

    In the sequence you will see the time code and a bar in line with it.
    At the end of all your edited clips in the sequence you will find that the bar ends, this bar defines the work area. 
    Drag each end of the work area bar so it covers only the clip you want to export.
    The select the exporter and select the preset you want and before you start the export where it says whole sequence change this to work area
    Then change the default name and location to whatever you want and start the export, job done

  • Used to convert all my videos into iPhone mp4 format using Any Video Converter - then add it to my iPhone 3GS. But last few days, I cant add video files to iTunes. and the iTunes doesnt even specify the reason except for that "files are not supported"

    Everyting was perfect earlier. Used to convert all my videos into iPhone mp4 format using Any Video Converter - then add it to my iPhone 3GS. But last few days, I cant add video files to iTunes. and the iTunes doesnt even specify the reason except for that "files are not supported"
    Everything is fine.
    -They are the right format
    -Quicktime is updated
    -I have tried simply dragging them into the 'movie' library
    -I have tried going to file<add file to library
    Nothing works, has anyone else had this problem and found a way around it?
    Any and all help appreciated.

    In addition to Mike's suggestions,  you only have 4GB of RAM and Mavericks does use more RAM than other versions. You may also want to look at the apps that startup on login and the possiblity of upgrading RAM.

  • How to burn a dvd created in iMovie with OS Maverics - why is it in MP4 format and not .MOV?

    I have created a movie in iMovie, shared it and put it in a burn folder on my desktop, then tried to burn it. It seemed to work (the hard disc was spinning and computer told me when it was finished) but when i tried to play it on my Macbook Pro (which is where I created it) it won't play. It is in MP4 format. iMovie used to create movies in .Mov format. Is this the reason it won't play and what can i do about it?

    Hi
    A. making a .mp4 file then putting it onto a DVD (via Finder/DeskTop) results in a DATA-DVD - which can not be played by any (to my knowledge) Standard DVD-Player.
    But if inserted into a window-PC and using VLC-player - I GUESS that it will play just fine.
    B. To be played in a Standard DVD-Player You need to do a VIDEO-DVD and to do this You need a DVD-Authoring program (it is a MUST)
    C. Things that use to go wrong are:
    - Using cheap brands of DVD discs as Memorex, NoName etc - I only use Verbatim
    - Using DVD+/-RW - usually do not work, DVD+R usually works BUT not on older DVD-players - I only use DVD-R
    - BURN SPEED - as faster as more BURN ERRORS (WORSE) - in iDVD - Best IS NOT BEST AT ALL - I never go faster than x4 - most often I use x2
    Reg Authoring programs:
    If there is no iDVD on Your Mac (and it's not on newer Macs as Apple discarded it) then You need a program that can do this.
    Your Mac can burn CDs and DVDs - BUT DVD as Data-DVDs not as Video-DVDs - they need a program to be encoded and STRUCTURED as such.
    iDVD is part of the boxed version of iLife'11 and can only be bought outside Apple as on Amazon and e-bay
    DVD Studio pro - Part of FinalCut Studio Pro bundle - this to has expired and can only be bought second handed. (High price and tough learning Curve - but best ever done.)
    Roxio Toast™ - Not as elegant as iDVD - but has many other positive additions (I like it as 10-Pro incl BD-component) (now version 11)
    FinalCut Pro-X which also can burn to DVD but without any nice themes.
    AppleMan1958
    You can also buy Compressor from Apple for $50 US. It will also create DVD and BluRay but without the nice themes.
    Free solutions:
    Burn - a free alternative from Internet. Very simple - Just for doing a plain Video-DVD
    Burn http://www.digital-digest.com/software/Burn.html
    Gives a fairly good resulting Video-DVD
    Free DVD Creator.app - free from Apple Store
    (very simple - Quality ?? not sure - looked problematic reg. Interlacing)

  • Videos recorded in mp4 format throught AMS(development version) not playing on android and Ios device.

    I am using adobe ams(development version) to record video files in mp4 format using rtmp protocol. I am using mp4 as the file extension and as the stream specifier(codec).The videos are saving correctly.When i copy these files on a mobile device(android and iOS) they are not playing.Can somebody tell what I am doing wrong.
    The rtmp url I am using is rtmp://localhost:1935/mp4:videoname.mp4

    Dropbox - defaultcodec.mp4
    Dropbox - h264codec.mp4
    These are the two files that I created .The first file is created by the default codec used by Flash player.
    The second file(h264codec.mp4) is created by using Flash player 11 and as3 . I have encoded the file using h.264/AAC.
    The tutorial followed for creating the second encoded file is Encoding live video to H.264/AVC with Flash Player 11 | Adobe Developer Connection
    Thanks in advance . These two files stream successfully in the web application using flash player and as3 .I can play both of them in VLC too. But these files wont play on any mobile device(both android and iOS).
    Please send me your feedback on this . In the meanwhile I will look into http streaming.

  • Added movie (already converted to mp4 format) to iTunes library in my PC, syncronized to iPad2, now how to locate and play it in iPad2?

    Added movie (already converted to mp4 format) to iTunes library in my PC, syncronized to iPad2, now how to locate and play it in iPad2?

    On your computer's iTunes if you select that video and do 'get info' (control-I), then on the popup on the Options tab change it's 'Kind' to 'Movie' from 'Home Video'.
    To sync it to your iPad, connect the iPad and select it on the left-hand sidebar of your computer's iTunes (if you have iTunes 11 on your computer then you can enable the sidebar via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC), and then on the right-hand side use the Movies/Films tab to select and sync it to the iPad's Videos app.

  • I have a JVC GY-HM100U and when I try to get the video files (MP4 format) off of the the SD card I get the error message OSStatus error -12909...any thoughts?

    I have a JVC GY-HM100U and when I try to get the video files (MP4 format) off of the the SD card I get the error message OSStatus error -12909...any thoughts?

    To be more precise: You MUST shoot in mov. Then drag the Clip bins from the card to you hard drive. Then drag the clips to FCP timeline and FCP asks you if you want to change to the right codec and of course you say YES. Now you can start editing. Can not be more simple. This camera was specially designed for use with FCP.
