Video file not synching to Apple TV

I purchased the Apple TV in hopes of being able to watch my company's work on the television set in true HD without having to downconvert to a DVD thus having higher quality and less used DVDs. Now, I just exported from Final Cut Pro a DVCProHD 720p 24fps file and imported it into iTunes. It plays perfectly in iTunes but I've tried repeatedly to synch it to the ATV and it says that it was not synched because the ATV cannot play it. What am I doing wrong here?

Here is the officially supported lists:
Video formats supported
H.264 and protected H.264 (from iTunes Store): Up to 5 Mbps, Progressive Main Profile (CAVLC) with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps (maximum resolution: 1280 by 720 pixels at 24 fps, 960 by 540 pixels at 30 fps) in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
iTunes Store purchased video: 320 by 240 pixels, 640 by 480 pixels, 720 by 480 pixels (anamorphic), or high-definition 720p
MPEG-4: Up to 3 Mbps, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps (maximum resolution: 720 by 432 pixels at 30 fps) in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
And here is the link to that info:
http://www.apple.com/appletv/specs.html
You may want to try converting it with Handbrake or something like that instead of the Quicktime utility. Doesn’t the Quicktime utility have an “Export to Apple TV” setting though? It should.

HT4101 I am trying to connect my JVC Hard Disk Drive Camcorder to my IPAD 2 via the Apple camera kit. I am able to down photos, but video files not showing. Camera shows Mass Stoarge. How can I download videos please.

The file name only has 6 characters and I'm not sure what the .mod format is. So that's why they are not seen by the iPad.
Another way to transfer. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

I bought an iTunes Royalty free song to play behind a presentation. What I have seem to have is video file not an audio file. Am I missing a step?I want to download iTunes purchases as a .wavfile of other audio file. Any help would be appreciated.

I understand the confusion. Those tracks are royalty free to the owner of the tracks, yes. The terms of use of the iTunes Store still state, though, that all purchases are for your own personal use and cannot be used commercially:
USAGE RULES
1. You shall be authorized to use iTunes Products only for personal, noncommercial use.
They're probably fine for presentations in a class or to a group at your company, but you probably could not post the presentation or a video using these tracks on a public site. I'm no lawyer, though, to legally define what would and would not constitute "noncommercial". It's probably best to just buy your tracks directly from one of these sites of royalty-free music. Then the use license should be completely clear.

Audio and video are not synched

I'm just beginning with FXP X (8), and just added a file to my event library, and created a new project. Dragged my first clip into the story line, and discovered that the audio and video are not syched. This is original footage from a video camera, no modifications or added tracks. But clearly the words of the speaker on camera are not synched with the video, both in the event library and in the story line clip. Is this operator error (lol)? TIA for any help, I'm stuck on square one.

You can right click on your clip in the storyline and Detach Audio.
After that, you can slide the audio until it's in sync or if it changes sync over the length of the clip, there is a way to correct that as well.
First, in the video, skim the playhead until you can see something that will "mark" a specific start of a sound and set a Marker (type M). Then select the audio portion (already detached) and find the start of the matching sound and type M (adds marker to the audio.) Turn on snapping and slide the audio until the two markers snap.
If you need to correct sync drift, use the same technique for markers near the end of the clip, but instead of sliding the complete audio clip, Retime the audio clip (type command-R) (set the playhead over the video marker - snapping won't work when retiming) and adjust the end of the audio until the two markers match up. Preserve Pitch (from the Retime menu) should already be selected.

Sony WX7 .mts video files not imported into iPhoto 11

Apple indicates iLife ’11 supports AVCHD (.mts) files, however, I've been unable to get iPhoto 11 to import video files from the Sony WX7 camera. Photo's are imported properly via both usb and directly from the SD card reader in my Macbook Pro (i7) 2011, however, video files are not. I've read that iMovie '08 supports Sony AVCHD 2011-model video cameras, but iPhoto 11 appears not to.
Mac OS X v10.6.7, is fully up to date. Has anybody found a solution?

Not sure where you are seeing that AVCHD is supported in iPhoto '11 but it is not - use iMovie to import your AVCHD movies - that works for my my Sony DSC-HX5

Panasonic GH2 video files not compatible

iMovie (and Final Cut) cannot import the mts video files from the latest video cam by Panasonic the GH2
BTW: RAW photos also dont import in iPhoto..
Apple is not ready for the GH2 yet.... Hoping for an update soon

hello
If it's not too late, I found a solution to import 24 P movies from a Panasonic GH2 Full HD to my macintosh.
you only need a software which is called "ClipWrap" It is very easy to use and it transform your MTS files in apple Prores files that your mac can read. (precisely, my Final cut pro, beacause for I Movie, I really don't care)
have a good day.

How do you burn a video file not compatible with quicktime?

Hello all,
I am very new at this so I apologize if the solution is very simple - i just can't seem to work this iDVD thing...
I've searched through the forums and can't seem to find exactly what I need, please point me in the right direction if a solution has already been posted elsewhere.
Okay, so my problem is trying to burn movies to DVD. I don't actually have to use iDVD, but it's the only solution i've come up with. My problem is when I add a movie file (lets say, something that will ONLY OPEN with VLC), and press preview, no movie files show up... but when i put in a video file that will play with quicktime, the preview works fine.
So i suspect the preview wont play because the file is not compatible with quicktime.
have any of you tried this? All i want is to be able to play a downloaded movie on the dvd player downstairs
regards,
Peter

iDvd is not a general burn utility. However, there's a very good chance (whatever that file is) that Toast will burn it to Dvd-R. And if not (which is unlikely) then do as suggested already and use Mpegstream Clip. It's 100% free! However Mpeg 2 playback component may run you a few bucks (if needed).
Or the alternative is to invest hundreds of dollars in Apple software and use apps like FCP and DVDSP (or FCS) along with QT Pro. Nine times out of ten this combination tends to work well ... but it ain't cheap (not to mention a rather steep learning curve).

ONLY video files not already in library wont transfer to itunes library

I've found NO help from the apple website dealing with this problem, video only importing problems don't even come up in the help sections.
heres an example, i just bought a new cd, i can easily transfer the files from the drive to my library, or from a folder on my computer to the itunes library.
BUT if i have recieved a new video file, in any format, i click - file, add file to library, (file name), open. then- absolutely nothing happens. If i have a folder of videos to transfer, i go to - file, add folder to library, (folder name), open. Sometimes a breif glimpse of the "processing filename" apears in a box on the screen, IF I'M LUCKY. But less than two seconds later, the box dissapears and itunes stops all attempts to put my new video files into its library.
I've tried to remedy this by the following-
I've tried to 'repair' itunes
i've tried to uninstall and reinstall itunes
i've tried to convert the files into .mpv, the file all ready to go for putting it on an ipod
i've tried to restart, reboot, completely shut and unplug computer
i've installed avg a spyware detector and searched for viruses, just in case a virus is effecting itunes or the files i want to put in it-no go
i've tried deleting my library and putting in only the video files, just in case it was full... (i doubt it i had 10 gigs of memory in itunes it should hold more)
I've tried deleting my library, then moving the files in the correcct format to the itunes library folder that has the files backed up to trick it that it was already there before- that didn't work.
I've just gotten a 30g new ipod with video and have transfered over 50 video files to it, there were no problems before, but there are now- its very frusterating especially because I WANT TO WATCH MY TV SHOW ON MY IPOD IN MY ROOM UNDER SOFT FUZZY COVERS! ='S
Has anyone else had this problem? and if so... are there steps to fix it, and WHY does it do this? (for any reason other than hating me)

I myself have came across this problem. I have found that for some reason simply clicking on other parts of iTunes and then adding the video file it eventually adds (most times).
I have also found that when attempting to convert some files to mpeg-4, the same thing has also happened. I have put it down to a bad corrupt file that iTunes does not like.
It could be that the files we are trying to add and/or convert to iTunes are damaged files even if they can be played using other media players.

Encode Video Files not working for avi files

Hi,
I've been trying to convert some .avi files to apple format using Lion's native 'Encode video files' function however keep getting a 'avconvert: source file not found for source file://fileparthhere avconvert: failed to create an export session. Check setup
I can't work out why as this has worked before in Lion and works fine for other video formats. The only thing I've done is remove Final Cut Express HD and can't add it again as I don't own it anymore
Suggestions? Is there a encoder to make this work or should it work anyway?
Thanks

If you click Yes the project file will be updated when you save it. That has nothing to do with the media.
Are the Lesson and Media folders still in the Book Files folder (or whatever it's called)?
Select one of the clips in the browser and use Edit>Item Properties. One of the first lines is Source. That gives you the file path for where your media is supposed to be located. What does it say? If nothing is there, use the File>Reconnect function and point the application to where the media is located.

Some Mpeg 4 video files not working under Window 7

I recently purchased a new PC running under Windows 7 OS. Obviously I have installed the latest version of ITunes and QuickTime player. I transferred all my music and video files from my vista laptop to the PC. The music files play fine using ITunes and the most recent music video files play ok too, but there seems to be a problem with the older music video files. When I try to play one of the older music video files, ITunes asks for authorization for the new PC to play the video each time I try to play the same video. ITunes grants authorization each time, but the video does not play, it shows that the video is playing on the progression bar but the music video is not displayed.
I have tried to play the music video using windows media player, but windows media error message says that it doesn't support the format of the music video.
I am perplexed as to what is going on; why will the newer music videos play through ITunes and not the older ones, and why doesn't windows media player support Mpeg 4 video files?

I want my flash video file NOT to load until I hit play...how can I do that?

I am wanting this to improve the initial download speed of the page. I have already added a Poster Frame to video's, however it still seems to be loading the video file and just autoplaying. Is there a way to NOT load the video file until the person hits play? This is the AS3 script I used...
import fl.video.VideoEvent;
myPoster.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, playMovie);
function showPosterFrame(event:Event):void {
myPoster.visible = true;
function hidePosterFrame(event:Event):void {
myPoster.visible = false;
function playMovie(event:MouseEvent):void {
myVideo.play();
myVideo.addEventListener(VideoEvent.PLAYING_STATE_ENTERED, hidePosterFrame);
myVideo.addEventListener(VideoEvent.COMPLETE, showPosterFrame);
I am using Dreamweaver to put the pages together via the Insert - Media - Flash...then putting the .swf file in the page.
Thanks,
Arguilo

you can start the video and then stop it. it will continue to download (which you can monitor). when the time is right, you can enable the video's play button. before the video's ready to start, you can entertain your users.

Video files not in camera roll

So I re did all my photo and video files and deleted everything fro
My camera roll. All photos and videos were moved into folders on my pc and then synced back to my phone. All my videos did not sync back. The videos were Placed in folders with pictures on computer but they didn't sync in the folders on my phone. Any ideas how to get videos back onto phone?

Photos and videos transferred from your computer are not and cannot be stored in the Camera Roll.
Do you have Include Videos selected under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes?

checked & realised I did not have all the intel parts for my graphics & installed the following:

Same problem & still getting both vlc & mplayer errors as above.
None of this was happening yesterday so I decided to pick through the upgrades & downgrade the ones affecting just vlc/video:
[2014-08-15 00:05] [PACMAN] Running 'pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/libx264-1:142.20140311-4-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz'

[2014-08-15 00:10] [PACMAN] downgraded mplayer (37224-2 -> 37224-1)
the only other thing I think might be causing this is the kernel upgrade but I don't really want to downgrade that because potentially that would mean doing it for all the upgrades!
can any of you archers see what might have caused this as the video file & others have been working fine & I can't see any other bugs or reports of this happening elsewhere.
thanks in advance for you help

so ...odd stuff for sure but I wonder how long this works for & why the above is so blatantly intermittent
I wonder if I could write a script that would check dmesg or a log file for the presence of "*ERROR* Failed to initialize GPU, declaring it wedged" & if found to load a config to enable uxa lol

Video files not showing up in FR

Hi all, this is my first Mac. So far I'm loving it, God only knows why I didn't make the switch sooner.
Most of my video-library consists of the following video file types; .avi, .mov, .mpg and .mpg.
Reading some topics, I found that as long as QT could play these files given the proper codecs, FR would have no problem playing them, too.
So I looked around and found out about Perian - worked to perfection, QT can now play all files.
Problem is, when I place any type of file, including .mov's, in the proper Movies folder it does not show up in FR. The only way I can get files to show up in FR is to add them via iTunes, and the only files I can add to iTunes are .mov's and .mpg's.
Does anyone know why my Movies folder is not "in sync" with FR?

There you go. The other user short name! I never tried that, because I assumed the Movies folder that was in the sidebar from default would be the one. But yeah, all I did was create a Movies folder in the user short name (since there wasn't one to begin with) and voila! Thanks a lot!
And about making saves as reference movies - thanks for that advice, it's been very helpful in getting me started organizing my digital video library.
Still have some qualms about FR, though. The way videos are organized ... been playing with it for several hours today and here are some of my issues:
I like to keep my stuff organized ... I like the fact that I have the option of using either FR or iTunes (cover flow), so that's the route I'm taking using both. Already, things get complicated.
My video media is basically in three groups: movies, TV shows and music (music videos, concerts, etc.).
First off, I've decided to use the FR-designated Movies folder only for saved movie references. This is to avoid clutter, so the actual files are not in the Movies folder. Is this a wise idea? I'll tell you the basis for this decision.
When I first started organizing the files I found that any video placed in the Movies folder shows up in FR under .... yup, Videos->Movies. Be it music videos or anything TV shows. I don't like that. For everything that's not categorized as a movie, I'd like for those files to end up in their proper sub-menu in FR, but they don't. In iTunes, they are all in their proper place, because I've edited all the info so it looks neat and orderly.
Is there a way around that? What I've done to make it seem cleaner, is in the Movies folder with all the saved reference movies, I've organized it like this:
(user short name)/Movies/
- Movie A, Movie B, Movie C
- Other (folder containing all non-movies video files)
So all the files in Other has been correctly arranged via iTunes, so these files show up in the correct sub-menu in FR.
What I mean is that they show up twice in FR, once because they're in the Movies folder and then another time (this is what I want), because I've directed them to a specific category via iTunes, e.g. music videos. I only want them to show up once, not in sub-menu Movies of FR, but either TV Shows or Music Videos ... make any sense?
Please don't tell me it isn't possible, or maybe advice me a better way to organize it.
Also, I'm having trouble getting some files to play. They play fine in QT, but if I change some info in iTunes they won't play in FR ... and the preview thumbnail is just black.
And lastly, wow ... there is a lot of load time, when you start FR up ... it's weird, sometimes there is none, sometimes I'll have to wait two minutes once I've gone by the main menu. I thought using saved movie references would help the load time, since the actual library is not in the designated FR-folder.
That's basically it for now ... 1) organizational troubles 2) playback troubles and 3) load time.
So far, you guys have helped me solve my issue, hope you will again!
Love Mac!
