Video export produces huge file

I'm trying to export a 2 min slideshow as an HD h.264 file. Aperture estimates the file size to be ~250Mb, but it instead creates a 1.2GB file. Anyone else have this issue?

Hi Tony - Yes, I selected the highest default option, hd 1080p. What's strange is that the estimate is so far off the actual file size. 1080p encoded iTunes movies certainly have more reasonable file sizes. There is an mp3 file embedded in the slideshow along with some photos and video clips recorded using an iPhone.

Phone made videos exporting as .mov files instead of .mp4

My phone made videos used to be exported as mp4 files, which my dell computer was able to play correctly. The videos are now exporting as .mov which only gives me the audio in the download to pc. Do you know what I need to do to fix the problem?
Thanks

Thanks
Is there any way to have my verizon iphone just make .mp4 files the way my AT&T iphone used to do?
I am guessing it is something to do with the carrier change that is causing the problem . My old phone and new phone are both iphone 4s
Thanks again

Export a huge file as a TIF

I'm creating a huge Illustrator file, 16383 by 12288 pixels. This happens to be the maximum width that Illustrator will allow.
I can export this size as a TIF, no problem. But I'd also like to export this file at 2x size, 32766 x 24576.
Is this possible?

That probably not is a definite No! the only way to get it into Photoshop as monika describes and possible copy and paste.

How to export a video at a moderate certain format and size in premiere CC 2014: No Huge File Results!

I have the latest version of Adobe Premiere, CC 2014 but whenever I want to render and export a video that is typically 70 megabytes in size I can't seem to always see how big the file will end up being for all the formats and I don't want to end up with a video larger than 250 to 300 megabytes in size just for the extremely best or highest quality even though I want the video to be well polished and in better quality than I usually get thee, These videos are usually imported as mp4. What file version of mp4 or otherwise would give me an originally imported video of 70 megabytes an output of no more than or around 300 megabytes or even less without compromsing video quality? I don't want a huge file size as I am uploading it to my YouTube channel via their web interface on another person's machine and they don't have Premiere and only has a DSL connection. So what video output settings should I use for a good quality video that isn't smaller than the original but the same size or a bit higher and not extremely large like MOVs and sometimes mp4s usually are depending on what you do to it and it is outputted.?

Export
Format: H.264
Preset: YouTube (make sure this matches the dimensions of your sequence)
You could further adjust the Target Bitrate but the preset is already setup for a good quality file for upload.
You can also do further reading on Video Bitrates.

After exporting to quicktime file, the file has sound but no video, what am I doing wrong?

after exporting to quicktime file, the file has sound but no video, what am I doing wrong? The self contained movie box is not checked.

Hi
Did You go via Compressor ?
Did You use QuickTime Conversion ?
I don't
I do
• In TimeLine set In and Out-Points to the full Movie/Project
• Select ALL - Clips and Audio
• Go up to Sequence and down to Render Only - down to Mix Down Audio
• then Sequense and Render Selected - Both (Video and Audio)
• then Export and as QuickTime .mov (NOTHING ELSE)
• I use to do - Not Self-Contained as it saves both time and space
Your Start-Up (Mac OS) Hard Disk - Needs lot's of free space to work OK - I never go under 25Gb free space on this one,
Good Luck - Yours Bengt W

Help me publish/export CS3 Flash file as Quicktime Video, no controller

I am working on a simple timeline animation and would like to publish/export my flash file as a quicktime file with out the default controller. I can export it no problem with the controller. Also I tried publishing it as a QuickTime with Flash Track (.mov) and I get this error message. "QuickTime does not support Adobe Flash track beyond Flash version 5. You can however, export a QuickTime move with Flash rendered as video by selecting File > Export > Export Movie.
Also, does anyone know if transparencies are ok if publishing as a QuickTime movie?

QuickTime 7.3.1, and higher, no longer support Flash (.swf) in playback. Previous versions did allow .swf format as a muxed "track" if "Published" from Flash applications as version 5, or lower.
To turn off the controller (none) use the Movie Properties / Presentation tab.
QuickTime does allow levels of transparency and also "alpha channels" in most image formats that support them (.png).

[BUG] Exporting to xls and xlsx produces empty file

When I'm viewing a table with data, and in Actions choose "Export...", turn off "Export DDL", choose "xls" for format, everything else is on default, and either leave empty or enter same name for both Query and Data worksheet names, and specify filter query - export produces empty xls/xlsx file. Only when one explicitly enters different worksheet names does valid non-empty excel workbook get generated with two differently named worksheets.
Either validation should be added for worksheet names, or generating them automatically on export should be supported.
I'm using Oracle SQL Developer 3.1.07.
Kind regards,
Stevo.

Hi Stevo,
Really appreciate you reporting this. There was an earlier, somewhat similar thread on this issue that we blamed on export file size:
Sql Developer 3.1 - Exporting a result set in xls generates and empty file
But you have discovered an important variation that explains it for small export file sizes also. Here is what I verified on 3.1.07.42:
1. Normally if the worksheet names are left untouched (empty), then the names default to Export Worksheet and SQL
2. If the name settings in Tools|Preferences|Database|Utilities|Export|Excel Format are null (empty), there is no problem
3. If the name settings are intentionally changed to a single blank character, then the problem you describe occurs.
So, you may wish to go to the preference settings and intentionally Backspace over each to null it out, then click OK.
In the case of intentionally setting both worksheet names, data and query, to the same non-null value, that is also a problem.

Gary

Export to QuickTime produces two files

When I exported my Keynote file to QT I found two QT files on my Desktop instead of one. One is the visual part. The other is the soundtrack. Is this normal? How can I produce just one file (to send to a friend).?
Thanks for any thoughts or help.

Editing video file in Quicktime Pro and producing a file which doesn't play

Hi all,
I have been editing some mp4 video in Quicktime Pro by setting the in and out position markers and cutting out segments (commercials). I save the file and end up with a .mov file which plays fine in the Quicktime player. (The file is a self-contained Quicktime movie.) At some point in the future, though, when I go to open the file in the Quicktime Player, only the audio plays. The video does not play, and the file opens as if it contained no video. That is, the Quicktime Player only shows the audio controls, and there's no area for video.
The same file plays fine in a Finder window when using CoverFlow/QuickView mode, which is very strange to me since I assume that uses the same Quicktime engine. It also plays fine in VLC.
Any ideas? It seems like there's some attribute on the file which is telling the Quicktime Player not to play the video, only play the audio.
Thanks in advance,
Russ

Any ideas?
First thing I would do when the file opens as an audio only files is check the "Properties" window to see what it says on a track by track basis. I also might try re-compressing the edited file to see if this prevents whatever is going on.

How to produce large Files (100meters and more)?

We are currently working on an architecutre project for which we have to make printed curtains/screens. The maximum of one Curtain
is about 180 meters (600ft). Over the 180 meters we have a pattern, which makes it not so easy to split files into pieces (color gradients, a.m.m.)
Our printing company suggested us to produce everything in a 1:10 scale (1 meter is 10 centimeters) and in 600dpi and they will scale it up with
their rip unit and print it than in 1:1. Final print resolution is therefore 60dpi.
As a start we are doing a 25 meters x 2,5 meters file - which is already super hard on the computer. (all new macs with 16gb ram and adobe creative cloud)
Is there any way of working like with videos - online and offline files? So that we work on a smaller scale and then repeat all the steps on the larger images.
We want to get our workflow optimized as we have to produce 3000 meters of image.
Any Ideas?
Thanks
Georg Kettele

First thing that comes to mind is to ask: Do you really need that high a resolution? Are people really going to be looking at actual print detail from just a few meters away on a project that's nearly 200 meters wide? In other words, are you actually creating fine image detail that matters at the 60 ppi scale?
The second thing that occurs to me is that a typical computer with just 16GB of RAM doesn't seem a good fit for working on gargantuan images. You've avoided doing the math that matters for the readers here, so I'll do it:
60 pixels/inch * 39.37 inches/meter * 180 meters == 425196 pixels width
Assuming your full length print will also be 2.5 meters:
60 pixels/inch * 39.37 inches/meter * 2.5 meters == 5906 pixels height
So your proposed image at this scale will be 425195 x 5906 pixels == 2.5 gigapixels. Assuming you're using 8 bits/channel mode RGB, that's 7.5 gigabytes to store the image exactly once in RAM.
Keeping in mind you'll need to actually WORK on this image in Photoshop, you'll need at least 10x that RAM (for History states, room to run various tools, etc.) and a LOT of super fast disk storage to be able to swap data to the scratch file. Numbers like 96 GB of RAM and several TB of SSD array storage space come to mind to even begin to think about working on such a huge image.
Any image that takes 7.5 gigabytes in RAM is going to be slow to work on no matter what computer you have today. And if you're hoping to work on an even taller image than 5906 pixels, then you start to get into the realm of computers that haven't been invented yet.
Third thing I'm thinking of is that you may have to divide it into smaller chunks and deal with manually aligning things you want to match up.
You could start working at a MUCH smaller scale, lay the groundwork for the layout using things (e.g., paths/shapes) that scale up nicely, then divide the image up for the finish work.

I get the error message in QuickTime "operation stopped the operation is not supported for this media" most times when I try and export an .AVI file as something else (.m4v). I have not touched the file in any way (no trimming, clipping or other editing)

I get the error message in QuickTime "operation stopped the operation is not supported for this media" most times when I try and export an .AVI file as something else (e.g. .m4v). I have not touched the file in any way (no trimming, clipping or other editing), all I want QuickTime to do is export the file in a compressed format. Bizzarely, if I shutdown and open QuickTime many times I can occasionally export a clip as another format (maybe one in 10 times). I have seen that other users have had a similar problem after clipping files in QuickTime but this seems to be a slightly different bug in that all I do is open the file and then try and export the file as is - either way, this is a very annoying bug

@Z_B-B, thank you for taking the time to respond to my cry for help. However, the link you supplied does not address the problem: I am not trying to export from Final Cut Pro to QuickTime, I am trying to export from QuickTime to the rest of the world (like people's iPhones and Ipads) in .m4v format (so I am not emailing my freinds such huge files).
If I were to spend hundreds of Dollars on a copy of Final Pro I could export directly from there and not have to bother with QuickTime, but I do not take enough video clips to justify the cost. I must say that I never had any of these problems before I decided to switch from Snow Leopard to Mountai Lion.

Export to AVI file too large! The secret setting to smaller AVI files is?

The recent death of a internationally respect friend has put me in a position of creating a memorial video for an upcoming event—and it should have been finished 2 days ago! So I'm pressed for time.
The problem is the display format: a large digital picture frame that also shows stereo video, but only in AVI format. We've tried .mov, .mpeg, .divx, .wmv, .vcl, .mpg1 to 4... Nope. It's got to be .avi or the picture frame balks. (Really, any .avi movie plays fine and no other format works.)
So I've taken the 5-minute memorial video, exported it as AVI and it comes out okay—except the smallest file size I can get is over 1.12GB! Whew! By comaprison, exporting to DIVX would get it down to around 100MB with decent quality. But 1.12GB is simply too huge for such a short video.
What's the correct export in FCE for lowest possible AVI yet still have good video?

Note: All video was transferred from a Panasonic NV-GS250 digital tape camera. It's 5 years old.
I've played with three codecs and the lowest file size I can achieve is roughly 400Mb in Cinepak Low Quality at 25fps, but regardless of the Cinepak setting (very low or very high) the picture quality is awful and washy, colors pixelate and come and go—and it doesn't matter if the video is showing still images or motion. Not useful at all. The colors are "millions" and changing that to 256 immediately shoots the file(s) up to over 12GB! (Yet I'd think it should be the other way around.)
Cinepak, DV-PAL, and DVCPRO-PAL are the three compressions I've tried, and the PALs convert with good picture quality and good sound to a minimum 1.2GB all the way up to over 20GB for a 5-minute video; Interlaced or Progressive doesn't reduce anything; of these None is the lowest. I +haven't tired+ DVCPRO50-PAL and neither any NTSC compressions (because I live in Germany). But this is for a digital picture frame—that I cannot change and for some weird reason will only support AVI—and it's not a T.V., rather it's no different that any modern flatscreen computer display. So how should PAL or NTSC make a difference?
Sound compression has been tried at ALaw 2:1 and µLaw 2:1, but they also seem to keep the overall file size too large. So I've been working more with None. Using 8 bit actually increases file size over 16 bit, and I've noticed little difference between mono or stereo.
I've worked with FCE for nearly 2 years and have never had such a headache over file sizes. But now I've met my match with AVI.

H.263 Exports and .mp4 Files

First off I am running CS5 on Windows 7.
I am trying to export videos for Blackberry devices (specifically the older models which I don't believe support h.264 decoding.) On my old computer, using Sorenson Squueze, I was able to produce a file that would play on the older models. I've exported several videos using the h.264 format, which play on newer devices but only play audio on the older phones.
I've been trying to use the mpeg4 preset, but it seems to only be capable of playing 3gp files, and the ones that I export don't seem to play very well, if at all,on the devices. There's the option under the mpeg4 preset to change the Multiplexer to mp4, which I've tried. This always results in an unplayable file. Unplayable in Device Manager, unplayable in Quicktime. Does anyone have any experience with these devices? or with the mp4 multiplexer? Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
I ran the old file, that I was exporting from Squeeze through GSpot, so if any of you can read it and tell me where to start, or conclusively that this file/its properties cannot be replicated in Premiere, I'd be very grateful.

Any chance you can explain what you did/why it helped? I see that you have it on level 3, and have enabled the resynchronization marker... is that what made it work with the mp4 multiplexer?
I used the MP4 multiplexer instead of the 3GPP multiplexer; I think that 3GPP is far more strict about how a file can be encoded and packaged, and the BB seems fine with MP4 as a container. That said, the BB video camera records to 3GPP files, so who knows?
Simple profile is a must; ASP won't work. Levels dictate the pixel dimensions of a file, the frame rate, and the maximum (and probably minimum) bitrate. Profiles actually describe what capabilities an particular standard or "part" has and can use to encode a file; for example, B-frames. To define a 320x240, 30fps, 400kbps file, I had to use Level 3... no biggie. Changing the level will automatically clamp those parameters, so you can see where the restrictions lie. Check here for more information: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MPEG-4
I used CBR, though you could probably use VBR 1-pass; 2-pass is not available. Your content will dictate what's best.
The biggest change I made was setting the Short Header to "No;" this was set to "Yes" by default. With this on, the dimensions were flip-flopped: height became 320, and width became 240. However, instead of being stretched, the video just expanded to the width dimension and stopped, maintaining aspect ratio. Turning this off allowed a proper encode. Resynchronization Markers were on by default; it didn't seem to make a difference. It might with streaming/transmitted video, but probably not with locally stored video.
That's pretty much it; I've typically used Squeeze in the past for my BB encodes, but I was actually quite happy with what came out of Premiere. I might use it going forward.

HELP! Premiere Elements 10 Video Exporting

Hi,
I'm a new PrElements 10 user, and I am on deadline and need some help, thanks! I'm new to video so talk any help getting me through this is appreciated.
Here's the description of the project:
++ I'm making a cartoon video and am using CS5 with Premiere Elements 5.
++ It is for internet use: website, social media, YouTube.
++ I'm by importing jpegs made from .ai files in CS5. I'm not NOT shooting video or importing video into the project.
++ I'm giving the jpegs the appearance of animation by treating them through the use of FX, transitions, etc. I'm not using AfterEffects, so I cannot create animations that way.
++ The .ai files are sized in widescreen 16:9 at pixel size 800 x 450.
++ The jpegs were exported from these files with the resolution settings: 5 and 425 ppi.
I mocked up a short video using some of the jpegs to make sure the settings were right before I did the whole project. Here are the problems I'm having:
1.) the exported video is not showing in Widescreen. The video is goes all the way to the top and bottom of the screen but the ends are squashed in so the content and characters are distorted to appear taller and thinner than they should.
2.) when i change the export settings, some of them correct the problem and some of them don't. This export preset works to get it into Widescreen but the file size is huge: "MP4-H264 1920*1080p 24".
3. Which brings me to compression. Does PrE have compression to resolve this issue- is it in one of the presets- what compression should I be using? Or do I have to buy a compression program? If so, what do you recommend?
4.) Project Set-up: Is this where I went wrong? Which preset should I be using for this jpeg-driven project? How does that Project Preset affect the input settings and output settings? And should I be using jpegs or tiffs or native .ai files???
5) My project preset is HD 1080i. Is this present affecting this exporting result?
Thanks!
