Uncompressed video avi

I used Roxio Easy Media Creator 7.5 to convert a movie to "uncompressed avi" (as roxio calls it). It has an aspect ratio of 320x240 and is still around 35 gigs. Huge, I know. My problem is quicktime plays only the audio and doesn't play the video, doesn't even have a blank screen, just the flat audio toolbar. Windows Media Player plays the video and audio with no problem. Does anyone know why quicktime won't play it? I'd like to convert for the ipod hence the need for quicktime. Thanks

It appears that Roxio is using some strange codec, perhaps a proprietary one, and calling it uncompressed. QT usually does not have any problems with uncompressed avi. They are usually identified as "WRAW" in the MovieInfo window and when the header is viewed in a hex editor it has 4 zero bytes in the 3CC+ position. You might see if this Windows freeware will open the video and show a video frame. If so, try saving it from the "Save As Avi" in the file menu. I have never had any problem reading VDUB uncompressed avis (identified as RGB in the file info of VDUB) in QT Player: VirtualDub
If VDUB will not read it then you may need to choose a more standard codec when saving from the Roxio app.

  • I can't export uncompressed videos

    I'm trying to export my videos as uncompressed AVIs so I can compress them on a seperate encoder, H.264, so I can put them on youtube and retain high quality videos.  However, every time I try to do this, once it's finished exporting, I click the video to test it and I only get the audio.  I doesn't matter how big or small the video is or what's on it, whenever I try to export an uncompressed video, I lose the actual video in the process.
    So is there a way to fix this? Or if not, is there a way I can export the video without the enormous loss in quality I get whenever I do an AVI export? Thanks

    sorry I wasn't being very specific.  When I said uncompressed AVI, I mean the videos were orignially AVIs and I simply wanted them to be returned as the raw footage but in the reorganized, edited form I put them in.  Like rearanging the videos without having to encode them again and deal with the loss of quality.  Virtual Dub does this but it's harder to work with and more limited than premiere pro. 
    Still not specific enough. There are two ways of exporting an uncompressed AVI from Premiere Pro: you can set the Format as Uncompressed Microsoft AVI (which you shouldn't; that's only for AJA hardware), or you can set the Format to Microsoft AVI, and then select "None" from the codec dropdown. It's the latter than you want to do.
    You might want to look into the Lagarith Lossless Video Codec or the Ut Video Codec Suite; both are free visually lossless codecs that will be smaller than uncompressed. They'll appear as codec options under Microsoft AVI. Lagarith installs both x86 and x64 (required for CS5) versions; for Ut, you need to install both the 32-bit and 64-bit packages.

  • Exporting Widscreen Uncompressed Microsoft AVI?

    I am attempting to export using the "Uncompressed Microsoft AVI" format but it exports all skinny.
    I had exported using the "Microsoft AVI" format with the "NTSC DV Widescreen" preset and my video is exported just fine. However, I need the video to be in the "Uncompressed Microsoft AVI" format so here are my settings.
    So I try exporting with the "Uncompressed Microsoft AVI" format and setting the aspect ratio to "D1/DV NTSC Widescreen 16:9(1.2121) - the same export settings as the compressed AVI export. But the Uncompressed Microsoft AVI format stretches the video vertically with black letterbox bars left and right of the video. When I export the video in the "Microsoft AVI" format with the above settings, the letterbox bars are above and below the video and the video is not stretched.
    What am I doing wrong? Why do the 2 formats export the video different with their settings almost the same?

    I don't want to make the player have to unsqueeze it. I want to encode it in such a way so the player knows how to properly display it.
    If I encode it as "Microsoft AVI" with the Widescreen preset, then the players display it just fine. So it is POSSIBLE to encode it in such a way so the user isn't forced to figure out how to properly play the video. An audience member should should just be able to click on the video and it just plays correctly.
    What is it about encoding the video as a "Microsoft AVI" with the Widescreen preset, that it plays just fine in a player? How can I replicate this when I don't use a preset? Is it something that the codec is placing in the video that tells the video player to play the video a certain way? If so, then maybe I have to find the proper codec.
    The reason why I didn't wish to encode the video with the normal preset is because I found that I needed to use the "UYVY" codec when I was exporting the video as a "uncompressed Microsoft AVI" because when I did, bright colors within the video no longer looked interlaced. The "None" codec of the "Microsoft AVI" mode also exported the colors well.
    So I need to figure out how to export my video that follows the following 4 criteria:
    1) Does not make my bright colors look interlaced.
    2) does not make my video look skinny
    3) my widescreen video takes the entire width of the screen w/o stretching.
    4) I don't have to give my audience a set of confusing instructions on how to set up their video player in order to make the video look the way it ought to.
    How can I export my video as an AVI file and follow the above 4 points?

  • Problems exporting to uncompressed MS-AVI (PPro 2.0)

    Hi!
    I have done a little film with still images. When trying to export 20-30 seconds from it (just to try it out), the resulting file is unplayable, and seems corrupt(normally I can play uncompressed video). Before I started this project, I did a test project with other still images, exporting to uncompressed Microsoft AVI, and it was no problem. Now it doesn't work, and neither does uncompressed Quicktime.
    Changing the 10-bit YUV compressor to 8 bit results in a file that is playable, but the picture is distorted and made up of narrow lines.
    Exporting to DV-AVI works allright, though.
    The only difference between this project and the previous test project is higher quality pictures, and texts on top.
    Could there be some setting that I need to adjust? Here is all the information I know:
    Computer:
    Dell Dimenion 8300
    Intel Pentium 4 CPU 2.80 GHz
    1,50 Gb RAM
    Windows XP
    Service Pack 3
    Premiere Pro 2.0
    project setting: DV PAL Widescreen
    export settings:
    Uncompressed MS AVI
    work area bar
    10-bit Yuv
    25 fps
    aspect ratio: D1/DV PAL Widescreen 16:9 (1.422)
    Data rate: recompress, maintain data rate
    Bit Depth: use project setting
    Fields: no fields (progressive)
    The pictures are jpg , and the audio is mp3.
    It would be great if someone with knowledge could point to what may be the problem!

    John caught that "higher quality" mention, as did I. I think that the linked article will be helpful.
    Though it does not seem that you are having an issue with the MP3, you might keep this ARTICLE in mind, should you encounter any. Some MP3's never cause an issue, and some users happily use them. In many other cases, however, they do cause issues.
    Good luck,

  • Uncompressed video export

    Hi everyone sorry for my english . But to the point. I've got a weird problem. I created a sequenc in Premiere CS4 from several mov files, in preview window it looked sharp. Next I wanted to export the sequence as uncompressed video (in media encoder I set file format to: Microsoft Avi and codec to: none, pixel ratio: square pixel). Rendered video size was about 3 GB but the quality of the video was very poor, it was very blurred. I'm not changeing the dimensions of the video sequence.
    Please help, i'm starting to pull my hair off .

    i'm using premiere cs4.
    trying to export the video to later compress it with virtualdub, but something gets fcuked up in the process:(
    the video will be like a square after VDUB has processed it. (xvid 2-pass encoding).
    any idea how to keep the original height of the video??
    premiere shows the source and output the same way, so i guess its VDUB that ruins it for me?
    any idea why does it do that?
    cs4 export settings:
    microsoft avi
    video codec: dv pal
    video: 720x576 @25fps
    field type: upper first
    aspect: D1/DV PAL (1.0940)
    my source is 720x576, 25.00fps avi file, taken out from somekind Canon's XM camera...
    or maybe there's a tutorial site of the same process somewhere? with all the details etc..
    thanks

  • 16bit uncompressed video files to large what media manager setting is best

    Hi all,
    I am working with some uncompressed video clips they come in at 25 gb a clip. These are profesional animation clips I am looking to save some disk space and still get near the same quality. I am editing the clips for mobile use so i need to start with a high quality master. any suggestions for what settings i should use with media manager.
    Thanks

    Why .avi?
    Final Cut Pro works with QuickTime .mov files.
    The video card in your MacBook Pro will be fine. The way to avoid rendering is to make sure that your Easy Setup and Sequence Settings match your source material.

  • Cannot encode 1920x1080 Uncompressed Microsoft AVI

    My camera gives me MTS files, which I then almost always encode to an uncompressed avi at 1920x1080 1:1 pixel aspect ratio for editing purposes.  However, suddenly and inexplicably, Premiere Pro and the Media Encoder have both decided that the upper limit is now 1620x1080.  My original footage is 1920x1080, so this makes no sense.  I've tried making sure the software is completely up to date, and this does not fix the problem.
    Does anyone have any possible insight as to what might be going on and how it might be fixed?
    Many thanks,
    Matt F

    Lemme guess... you didn't uncheck the Link Aspect Ratio button?
    By the way, you probably don't want to use the Uncompressed MS AVI option; if you want an uncompressed file that will be a bit more compatible, select Microsoft AVI with the codec set to "None." Other options for losslessly compressed (and therefore smaller) AVIs would be the Lagarith Lossless Video Codec or the Ut Video Codec Suite.

  • Can no longer play my videos (.avi) from my Pentax Camera.

    Please HELP.
    I have been using my Pentax Digital point and shoot camera since 2008. I had no problems watching my videos (.avi) on I photo. They would upload and play as normal. Then all of a sudden about one year ago. They no longer play. The videos on my iphoto uploaded since them don't play, as well as the older ones. Now they dont even upload.
    I have contacted pentax for support and they have no idea how it interfaces with iphoto. They suggestes VLO media browser. But id rather not have two diffrent applications for my media.
    What should I try?
    Does Iphoto no longer recognize .avi??

    Did this start after you upgraded to Snow Leopard?  Do you have Quicktime Player 7 installed on your Mac?  It would be in the Applications/Utilities folder if you do.  If not then download it from here: QuickTime Player 7.6.6 for Mac OS X v10.6.3.

  • Small Flip video AVI files - can preview in Organizer but not Elements

    Hi all,
    I just spent $110 to buy Adobe Premiere Elements 9.  I installed it to my Dell Vostro 1520 Intel Dual Core 2.2 GHz, running Windows 7 Pro.
    I have a few small (5-10 seconds each) Flip video .AVI files (standard definition) to use for learning.
    To learn, I brought the little .AVI files into Adobe Organizer, and can now double-click on each thumbnail and see the video play clearly, no problem, in the Organizer preview window.  All well and good!
    Next I created a new Project in Premier Elements, and used the Add Media button to reference the same little .AVI files.  But when I attempt to preview them in Premier Elements by double-clicking on a thumbnail, I instead see a green/teal-colored rectangle where the video should show in the preview window, although I can hear the audio fine.
    Can anybody help me?  Any thoughts or ideas will be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.
    Meomoto

    Steve --
    I have Windows Live Movie Maker.  It offers many of the same features as Adobe Premiere Elements 9, but not all of them.  For example Premiere Elements 9 offers Picture-in-Picture, nicer titling features, etc., etc.  That's why I've just shelled out $110 to buy Premiere Elements 9 (whereas Windows Live Movie Maker is totally free if you have Windows 7 Pro).
    Windows Live Movie Maker is a PC-based video editing program, and it does not require and does not use use Apple Quicktime.
    So I don't understand why you say Quicktime is a necessity.
    But I do appreciate your reply and your thoughts.
    I'm still looking for someone who has successfully used Adobe Premiere Elements 9 to edit Flip Ultra (standard definition) .AVI files.
    Thanks.

  • Videos .avi with poor quality on iDVD.

    I am new user on Mac. I work with soccer match analysis and I have to use the softaware on windows plataform.
    I creat videos (.avi) with good quality if I watch on Windows Media Player or TV. When I watch on my Mac, they have a real poor quality (defocused and trembled).
    I used to creat my videos on this software (windows) and I burn de DVD on iDVD.
    Do I have to convert my .avi videos to any other extension file?
    When I converted my .avi files to .ogm files the quality was better, but I couldnt use these files on iDVD.
    Are there anything that I could try to get better quality on my video files?

    Hi
    I would convert the .avi to streamingDV and use this in iDVD.
    .avi
    You can use MPEG-Streamclip to convert the AVI files so that QuickTime can play them
    and to streamingDV for iMovie.

  • PSE 7 adding unmanaged files slow with video (.avi .mpg)

    I take mostly pictures (.jpg) with some video clips (.avi or .mpg) from my digicam. The files (pics and vids) are transfered from SD card into my managed folder structure. Then in PSE 7 i right click on the topmost folder of my managed folder structure and select Add Unmanaged Files to Orgainzer.  PSE then Searches for Files To Import by scaning through all of my files currently in the Organizer (i can tell by the displayed thumbs and paths). Pictures are processed very quickly but the import process REALLY bogs down on the video files. This process also generally crushes the responsiveness of my PC (i7, 6GB RAM, ATI 3450 128MB video card, Vista 64bit SP2) even when PSE isn't the active window. I have a CPU Usage sidebar gadget and none of the 8 'cores' are being taxed. In my collection I have according to PSE Organizer 231 video files out of 9359 total files (so 9128 are pics) and my last import took nearly an hour before I could tag the newly added files. In the interim my PC was unusable for other tasks. As the # of videos in my catalog has increased so has the time for the import because PSE for some reason has to deal with all the files already in the catalog on every import, including the troublesome video clips.
    What is going on with the Organizer when videos (.avi or .mpg) are being added? Why is it so slow on each video file and why does the adding of unmanaged files generally crush my system (its useless even when the import isn't dealing w/ a video)?
    For comparison Picasa 3 adds new files (both pics and vids) from my watched file structure automatically on startup very quickly and does not impact useability of my PC and I can even use Picasa while the files are being added. It all happens so fast and with no impact.

    I'm still curious if anyone has any insights on slow Adding of Unmanaged Files to Organizer.
    A new spin on this is after moving a number of files from my camera to disk folder system (via windows explorer) then starting PSE 7 some time later, PSE asked if I wanted to add files from watched folders to the organizer.  I selected No because I needed to do something else at that time and was afraid of the timeconsuming process i mentioned in my original post.  Now after subsequently exiting and restarting PSE with the intent of adding unmanaged files, PSE didn't ask if I wanted to perform this operation.  If No means no for this batch then there should also be an option that says 'Not Now' or 'Later'.

  • QuickTime Problem. Doesn't play video.avi.

    I have updated the system up to the latest - Maverick. After that QuickTime Player doesn't play video.avi. I have tried restarting the app - worthless. Yet, it has been showing 'Converting' for 30 mins. Please, help!

    Hello, thank you for your reply. I have several more questions if you don't mind.
    1. Does it always take that long to convert a file (more than 30 mins)? It seems that it doesn't work. It stops at the beginning and than nothing changes.
    2. Since when QuickTime needs convertation for avi? I thought this is a standart format.
    3. How can I use QuickTime 7?
    Here is what I see during 30 mins.
    Thank you beforehand!

  • Display Closed Captions: Video (.avi) + Subtitles (.srt)

    Hello.
    I am trying and failing to play a video with soft subtitles. Is there a way to do this without using software to hard-code/embed the subtitles onto the Video.avi file?
    - My 'videos' folder contains two files with the same name but different extensions (Video.avi and Video.srt)
    - In the video playback options I have checked the 'Display Closed Captions' box.
    Thanks.

    Hi.  What we do is resize the project as one of the last steps in the development process.  We resize the height only, adding about 45 pixels.  We position the existing project at the top, thus adding about 45 pixels at the bottom as a "footer".  This footer then contains the playbar and also leaves enough room for two lines of closed captioning.  Of course we have to take this extra space into consideration when we do our original screen captures.  We capture at 1005 x 605, then resize twice --- the first time to add 25 pixels to the top for a header, then the second time to add 45 pixels to the bottom for a footer.  Each time we keep the original project the same size and fill the background with color, so the actual screen captures do not get rescaled.  The end result is a published project that is 1005 x 675.
    The other alternative is to position the application you are capturing on a blank desktop background and capture the application window and some of the extra blank desktop background below the window.  But this method prevents you from using the "snap to fit" option when capturing an application.
    I hope this makes sense.
