Using Quick time with UDF movies

It seems that most of my movies are UDF format, and they work fine with Windows media player, but they dont work with quicktime play. Is there something I can do here. I am using a PC XP
Thanks

Can I use quick time player to play movies TV shows

Can I view movies TV shows & other videos using quick time player instead of itunes player?
If so how do I do the switch?

Find the movie in Finder, right click, open with QuickTime.

I have AVI files that I need to be MOV files so that I can edit them in Final Cut Pro. I am going to use Quick Time Pro for this....do I have to 'export' it or can I just 'save as', or is there even a difference? Thanks in advance for your help!

I strongly recommend you use compressor to do the conversion (if it will open the files - since quicktime will open them, it will more than likely do it.
Compressor allows you to customize presets and save them and apply them to multiple files. Although the interface may seem daunting, it's actually pretty simple.
Even if you can edit the avi in fcp, it's not a good idea. Liable to cause problems down the road.

How do I export a Final Cut Express 4 movie using quick time conversion without stretching the image?

I have created a movie in Final Cut Express 4 using videos and still photos of various aspect ratios and resolutions. Some of the photos are verticals. When I try to use File>Export>Using Quick Time Conversion, my images end up being stretched horizontally when the video is finally processed. I have tried preserving the aspect ratio but the video still ends up stretched horizontally. What should my settings be in Quick time conversion? I just want to make a video for YouTube.
Thanks. -Bob

If you shoot in one of the following modes you should be able to Log & Transfer directly into FCE:
HD: 1920x1080/60i (FX or FH mode)
HD: 1440x1080/60i (HQ or LP mode)
SD: 720x480/60i
1080/60p (PS mode) seems to be the default mode in your camcorder. FCE only supports progressive video in 720p50 or 720p60. That's probably why you have had to import via iMovie.
It would be better to upgrade to Final Cut Pro X, the version currently supported. FCE was discontinued over 18 months ago and is not supported on Lion or Mountain Lion.

Can't use Final Cut Express Export Using Quick Time Conversion with iDVD.

I am using iDVD 08v 7.0.4 and until 3 days ago I could import and create iDVD's using Final Cut Express export using Quick Time Conversion. There was an update that downloaded for iDVD. Since then, I can only use Final Cut Express Exports that is a self contained Quick Time Movie.
I have never had this kind of apple and apple problem. I am disappointed that I'm having apple issues like this.

Are you on latest 10.5.x release and latest FCE updates? Your info line says 10.5.1 and you didn't list FCE version. Not saying that will fix problem, but might help. You also might want to explain how you did your Quicktime conversion.

Trying to export a small video using Quick Time conversion

Hi...i apologize if this is a stupid question...i'm still kind of new at FCP. I'm trying to export a small one and a half minute video into a Quicktime file that's less than 1 GB. I exported as a Quick Time movie and it came out to 2.6 GB. I tried compressing using Compressor that and it took over 2 hours so I canceled it. I then tried exporting using Quick Time conversion and it came out to 66 MB, which is more what i'd expect. Except that the picture was only in the upper left hand corner of the Quick time viewer...the rest was black. I tried adjusting the dimensions, etc. but it didn't work. Any idea why this is happening? Are there some standard settings I can use for this? The video is for the internet so I'm not too terribly concerned about the picture quality. Thanks.

What format is your media, Easy Setup and what are your Sequence Settings?
They should all match.
When you export, do so using the following path: File > Export > Export to QuickTime.
Make sure that "With Current Settings" and " Make Movie Self-Contained are selected.
This will give you an independent movie that is not compressed and uses the same codec as your source material.
Depending on how you want to deliver your movie will determine what happens at the next stage.
Post some details about it.

Final Cut Express Quits when exporting using Quick Time conversion to MPEG2

I'm new Mac user and I'm trying to compress a movie from Final Cut Express HD when exporting using Quick Time conversion to MPEG2 format when I do that Final Cut application quits.
and if helps you to answer I have the same problem trying to do the same from iMovie HD and from Adobe Premier 6.5

"exporting using Quick Time conversion to MPEG2 format"
I'm not sure how you can get to that point: I cannot even find MPEG2 in my list of compression types while exporting with QuickTime Conversion... (I have 31 of them, and QT 7 Pro installed).
In any case, if you want to make a DVD and have iDVD installed, you have simply to Export/QuickTime Movie (without conversion): iDVD will take care of compressing your movie for you before burning the DVD.

Why is my Mac not using Quick Time when I want to start some Apple tutorials?

I got a new MacBook Pro this April. When I want to run some applications that use Quick Time, it suggests that I should download Quick Time. When it takes me to the appropriate window, it tells me I already have Quick Time installed with the OS. Why is it doing this?

Hello fmomade,
Some older video and software still requires an older version of QuickTime (version 7) that isn't included with Mountain Lion. It can, however, be downloaded and installed here.
Installing QuickTime Player 7
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3678
A Mac OS X v10.6, OS X Lion, and OS X Mountain Lion-compatible version of QuickTime Player 7 is available for use with older media or with AppleScript-based workflows. QuickTime Player 7 can be used to playback formats such as QTVR, interactive QuickTime Movies, and MIDI files. Also, it supports QuickTime 7 Pro registration codes for access to QuickTime Pro functionality.
To install QuickTime Player 7 on OS X Lion and OS X Mountain Lion
Download QuickTime Player 7 from here.
Double-click "QuickTimePlayer7.6.6_SnowLeopard". Note: This download is compatible with Mac OS X v10.6 or later.
QuickTime Player 7 will be installed in your Utilities folder.
Cheers,

How exactly do I transfer my dvds to my ipod using quick time pro 7?

I keep seeing how to transfer them using the videora software, but can I transfer them using quick time pro 7? if so, where can I geta step by step tutorial on it?

ok. In the link you gave me, it says if I have not
already recorded my movies then to click on a link it
has there, but it's only for mac users, I have pc. do
I need to record my movie if im using a pc before I
can transfer the movie? if so, how do I, since that
link if for mac users only
That link is talking about getting the video off a digital video camera. You want to get it from a DVD and we've already established that you can't do that with Quicktime Pro.
Getting video off a camera using Windows would be specific to your camera and the software you use to do it.

Using quick time videos (for web)

Hi guys,
In my project I am using quick time videos within director,
which work fine when it is published and play back in the
projector. However when I export for web, the videos don't play
back in the web browser. Is there something I am missing when
exporting?
Many thanks,
Rich

Yeah, I did upload them in their relative folder. They are
about 15MB each and 30 seconds long. I don't have a "dswmedia"
foler, what do I need to do with that? The error message I get
is...
"This application requires an Xtra (QuickTime) that either
does not exist or failed to initialize properly. Please make sure
the appropiate Xtras are in the Xtras folder"
Thanks!

Export using quick time

Hi there everyone
I have just exported using quicktime and the appropriate settings in imovie, when I went into idvd to set up and bring in movie it said that it hadn't been prepared for sharing and to share using media browser. Do I have to also do this if I have exported using quick time ?
Or as normal am I missing something
Thanks

Mate trust me stick to the computers i'd say...... It was fun and I miss it alot but its not easy. We were farming a particular species called discuss hanni - asian i think and they are so delicate compared to others, they're the hardest to keep from dying and maintain a decent growth rate but they fetch serious money..... Its ok for the farms in japan and places alike as labour is so cheap but we were here in I Ireland and Labour is lets just say a wee bit on the expensive side. To cut along story short we were flying it we were the biggest farm farming that species in Europe and the first in the world to start using recirculatin water systems ( only use 5% fresh sea water per day ) - less pumping costs and manual cleaning labour costs. We were looking to sell 100 ton a year so needed appropriate investment - around 5 mill over 10 years - along came mr recession investors pulled out and bang. I now wake up in the morning look over the sea and see a ghost farm out on the point....... Thats why I have now ventured into the wedding business ( video booths ).......
Ireland is not in a good place at the mo....
Thanks for help

Explorer starts using Quick Time to play clips "out of the blue" .

When I switched to Safari several years ago I noticed that Explorer did a better job at playing back movie clips so I kept using Explorer for only that purpose and Safari for everything else .
Yesterday all-of-sudden Explorer started using Quick Time to play clips that last week the Explorer player(?) used . Everything had been reset to use Quick Time .
I used finder to see if anything had been modified in Explorer in the last day and found a WAFF cache that was modified at the time of the switch . What is a WAFF cache ?
I put it in the trash and it seems to have fixed it . The clips play in the old manner (sizeable windows) . And everything else seems to still be working .
Does anybody know how and why this happened ?
eMac Mac OS X (10.3.9) Explorer 5.2.2 Quick Time 7.0.3

You'll find the browser settings in the Sys Prefs/QuickTime/Browser. You'll find "helpers" in the Internet Explorer preferences.
What are "helpers"?
I hadn't realized that Explorer used QTime. So I used finder to to tell me what happens when I download and for each clip it downloads a ;
1) Movie_0000.. IETemp Quick Time Movie 10MB
2)Orig_)0000.. IETemp MPEG Movie 3.4MB
and sometimes but I don't know if always a ;
3)IE Cache.waf 10MB WAFF file .
still wondering how the settings were changed and if the IE Cache wa involved ?
