Trimming video in quicktime

In Quicktime 7 Pro, when I trim a video, the audio goes out of synch with the video. How can I fix or avoid this? Thank you.

"The movie contains an incorrect time value" error - saving a trimmed video

I am attempting to trim a video shot on my Samsung CL65. The video was shot in High Quality HD 1280 x 720. I open the video in QuickTime and then use the Trim command to remove the last part of the video and then close it to Save it. When I save it I get the following error: "The document SAM_0306.MP4 could not be saved as "SAM_0306". The movie contains an incorrect time value." I think this has to do with an encoding error in the original file or in the trimmed file but I have no idea how to get around it.
Any ideas?

This info probably won't help with your problem, but it's information for others who get this error.
It's probably the software that made the MP4. ffmpegX, for example, and the mencoder program inside it, do this with every H264 encoding when the video is longer than 1 hour. Time codes are correct up to 1 hour, then the seconds value gets wacky (3600 is added to it). Quicktime won't save a movie with a time code like 1:20:3623.120 (although it will correctly display 1:20:23 in the player).
Apple used to offer quicktime scripts that would allow you to see what the time code in a stream really looked like. Applescript appears to have officially and quietly gone missing, though, and those scripts are no longer available online as far as I can tell. There were some really handy other scripts that would allow you to view all sorts of movie properties and manipulate tracks (great for syncing poorly synced sound, for example), but time code problems like the above would invariably mean the movie couldn't be saved.

How do you trim videos in Photo Booth on the OS X Mavericks?

I recently updated to the new OS X Mavericks. I don't know how to trim videos on Photo Booth though. Before I updated, there was a "trim" button on the bottom right side of the video that was playing, but I'm not sure where it is now. Is it even possible to trim videos anymore? Thank you

After you take your video and it appears on that little strip at the bottom, click and drag the video you want to trim onto your desktop. Then right click and choose Open With > Quicktime Player.app (It should be default.)
Then when it's open, press Command-T on your keyboard or go to the Edit menu and click Trim...
Then drag the little yellow handles to where you want to trim it to and hit the Trim button.
Then press Command-S to save it, or click the little share/export on the player controls to send it to Facebook or whatever you choose.
Hope this helps,

Trimming video in iPhoto9

I recorded a clip with my iPhone4 and imported into iPhoto.
I click on Edit and it shows in QuickTime 10 and I trim the video. I rename when I Save As so as not to overwrite the original. The trimmed video clip shows in the iPhoto Library in Finder but not in iPhoto Events. If I try to import I get a message saying it's already in the Library.
How can I trim a video in iPhoto so that the trimmed version shows in iPhoto?

Thanks! You'd think since one can edit and save photos which still reference back to the original, it'd do the same for video.
Humm - it is iPhoto - not iVideo - iPhoto is oriented around simple point and shoot consumer cameras - iMovie is designed to handle movies
At least one would hope that after doing a Save As into the Library it would show up. Apparently it doesn't get added to the iPhoto database even though the edited version is present.
That is correct - if fact you must NEVER make any changes of any sort to the iPhoto library using other programs or the finder - this includes saving photos or videos to it - it is a SQL database and must have total control of its data
Time to make a feature request unless there's an easier workflow than going to the desktop and importing.
iPhoto menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback
However since what you are requesting violates all of the iPhoto database rules I doubt if it will ever be done

Trimming video files on OSX not iOS

Hello im very concerned cos im trying to write a method for trimming HD video files (on oSX not iOS) into 3 seconds file but i can´t find anything useful can anyone help me please?

Well, you can use iMovie and/or Quicktime for trimming videos - those are two, but there is also MPEG Streamclip which can also be used.
If you will use any of these apps and learn how to do it, you can write the instructions. There are also help files accessible in the File Menu > Help within the apps.

Blank, now garbled video in quicktime osx

I have a Samsung SC-MX20 camera, play perfectly in QuickTime Player 7.6 but the video is blank (black) in quicktime X, up until I upgraded to 10.6.4. Now the video is garbled. Funny thing is it plays fine on my (older) imac. Computer is a macbook (non firewire), late 2008 model.
Thoughts?
Rick

I'm having the same problem (no video when I open a MP4 or other video in QuickTime Player). However, I can view videos in iTunes. Candydrop's list is mostly my list too, but I don't have: AC3MovieImport.component or Perian.component.
I do have these that CandyDrop doesn't:
AppleMPEG2Codec.component
DivX Decoder.component
FLV.component
So to sum up, this is my list:
AppleIntermediateCodec.component
AppleMPEG2Codec.component
DivX Decoder.component
Flip4Mac WMV Advanced.component
Flip4Mac WMV Export.component
Flip4Mac WMV Import.component
FLV.component
Any ideas? This is a huge problem for me and I have to have it solved by the end of the day! Ack!

Please help. When exporting a 720p video using Quicktime Conversion in FCP it saves some extra temporary files to my computer. The file is called ICMMultiPassStorage. This file gets so large that eventually the program and exporting process crashes.

Please help. When exporting a 720p video using Quicktime Conversion in FCP it saves some extra temporary files to my computer. The temporary file it saves is called ICMMultiPassStorage. This file gets so large that eventually the program and exporting process crashes. I have been able to locate the file using GrandPerspective and close out of FCP to delete it. But when I try exporting the movie again it creates the ICMMultiPassStorage file again. I have made sure my scratch disks are set to my external hard drive so I know that isn't the issue. How do I fix this problem so these temporary files are not being stored on my internal hard drive instead of my external?Thanks!

Try exporting the timeline "using current settings" via Make QuickTime Movie, then submit that clip to Compressor for the transcode. This should be faster and less painful.

Trimming videos in iPhoto

When I try to trim videos in iPhoto, it tells me I do not have enough memory. I bought the memory on the iCloud, but I am getting the same message. How do I get iPhoto to recognize the memory? I need to make movies with it and iMovie for work. I have an iPhone 6. I have deletedother apps' backup. I have tried and failed to import videos to my home computer (a PC).By the way, still photos work fine.

What system and iPhoto versions are you using? As a test launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Import a couple of videos and test to see if the same problem persists. Does it?

Record camcorder video using Quicktime.

Ok. so since I can't import it to imovie I tried to record a new video using quicktime. It would have worked except that quicktime would only recognize the sound input. Here is a video of the issue.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qc1Wxjx6OmQ
The camera I'm using is a Samsung SC-D453. Is there any way to make Quicktime recognize it?
My other question is. Since this camcorder has a composite-s video out, Can I get a s video to usb adapter that will let me record it to Quicktime? Once it is in .mov IMovie will import it quite nicely.
thanks

Ciao
you could launch the recording application, but it will not
within your FL app. Then you need to know the file name and
location since FL cannot browse the file system of the phone.
Also consider that this type of apps do not work for every
phone since some phones do not allow to execute other applications.
Here some tutorials that you can take a look at:

I can't play Sorenson 3 video on Quicktime X

I have a few videos that I need to convert into a viewable format on my Mac. Currently when I try to play the videos on Quicktime X, all I get is audio but no video.
Upon opening Movie Inspector I see the following:
Format: Sorenson Video 3 Pro, 848 x 480
AAC, 44100 Hz, Mono
I already tried enabling legacy codecs on the command line, but I still can't see the video.
Is there anyone that can help me?

Interesting topic. See if the following helps.
Format: Sorenson Video 3 Pro, 848 x 480
AAC, 44100 Hz, Mono
Believe the Sorenson Video 3 Pro codec was a paid multi-pass VRB upgrade to the Apple Standard Sorenson/Sorenson 3 video codec package. Assume the standard package supports Sorenson Video 3 Pro playback but cannot test this hypothesis as I only have the standard codec currently active and no Sorenson Video 3 Pro sample files available for testing. If so, then...
I already tried enabling legacy codecs on the command line, but I still can't see the video.
Under Mavericks and Yosemite, legacy codecs are, by default, available for passive (playback) support. I.e., it is only necessary to re-enable legacy video codecs is you plan to use them actively for export in QT 7 based apps or similar third-party apps like MEG Streamclip. Unfortunately, the "Modernizer" routine for QT X will only pass the data to the converter if it is programmed to do so. If you have the QT 7 player installed on your system, suggest you try playing the file in that media player. If the file plays, then you can either use this player for playback. In addition, if you have the QT 7 Player keyed for "Pro" use or have the MPEG Streamclip app installed on your system, then you can also convert such files to H.264/AAC for compatibility with all current QT media players. On the other hand. if the files are not playable, then it would seem to indicate that the standard Sorenson Video 3 package does not support Sorenson Video 3 Pro playback.
Also of interest to me was the fact that the FFmpeg codec package also supports Sorenson Video/Sorenson Video 3 content. Unfortunately, nothing was stated regarding "Pro" variation playback support in the articles I read. Basically this means that apps, such as VLC, HandBrake, etc, may or may not also support the playback and/or conversion of your Sorenson Video 3 Content. Would, therefore, also recommend you also test your files in these or similar apps. My personal preference for conversion would be the latest version of HandBrake.

Open a loop of videos on QuickTime?

Hi,
When I select multiple videos and open them at the same time in QuickTime I get a frame for every video, can I open multiple videos that comes up in one single frame and starts automatically playing one after another?

Hello,
No. Unfortunately you can not queue videos in QuickTime. Try another videos player. I suggest VLC, it can handle playlists. Download it from http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-macosx.html

Convert Youtube video into Quicktime?

I am in the process of learning how to use "Keynote '09" (Version 5.3). Is there anyway to convert an youtube video into Quicktime, so that I can play the youtube video in my keynote presentation? I would not want to purchase any expensive softwares or apps for it because I do not use keynote for business but just for my community volunteer work.

Since Google seems to 'own' all videos posted on YouTube most video extractors for YouTube, once widely available, no longer work.
So your question is really moot at this point - I don't know of any way, now, to even download YouTube videos. You could always use ScreenFlow (or a similar product) to 'capture' the video and sound, but that (according to Google) would violate their terms of use for YouTube videos.
Sorry,
Clinton

Can not encode / export videos in quicktime Pro

I have been unable to ever sucessfuly export a video with quicktime pro on my new laptop I got this past July right from the start.
When ever I start exporting a video into the h.264 or other formats the progress will start off at 8% and about 5 minutes later will on average get as far as 21%. But that is as far as I can get. At that time quicktime terminates. I get a Message from the Visual C++ Library saying that QuickTimePlayer.exe has encountered a buffer overun and its internal state has become currupted and must be terminated. When you click OK quicktime Is closed out, and the file you were attempting to create is left on your disk with a file size of 0 bytes.
This is with the latest version of quicktime.
My system spects are
CPU: AMD Athlon X2 4800+
Memory: 2 GB
OS: Windows XP Professional SP2
Does anyone know what is causing the buffer overrun and how I can fix it or get past this problem. Uninstalling and Reinstalling quicktime does not fix the issue and it has been happening since day one like I said.
I typed out the whole buffer overrun error when It occured about 10 minutes ago here trying to post this thread, however I should of known better then leaving the buffer overrun errors open and quicktime ideling with the termination message. Windows Decided to BSOD on my just as I was getting ready to post this message=\

QuickTime is not supported on the 64-bit version of Windows (look here for the official statement), so if that's what you have (as I presume you do from the processor description), it may well not work correctly. Some people have managed to get it working (at least tolerably), but from what I've read, a recent security update from Microsoft has caused a lot of problems. You might try rolling back recent Windows updates and see if you can get things working, but it may just not work for you.

Can I trim videos in the Photos app of the iPad 3?

or do I need another app?

From the iPad User Guide.
“Trim a video. Tap the screen to display the controls, drag either end of the frame viewer, then tap Trim.
Important: If you choose Trim Original, the trimmed frames are permanently deleted from the original video. If you choose “Save as New Clip,” a new trimmed video clip is saved in your Camera Roll album and the original video is unaffected
