Video format and another question

I saw someone else ask what video format photos for iOS supports but i had a couple of extra questions so didn't want to hijack his.
I've been using aperture for years but my library was really messy, i'm loving photos overall so far as i hardly used the features in aperture and the interface looked a bit dated. Sharing photos was also a bit of a nightmare compared to the new photos app.
Anyway instead of importing the whole aperture library, which i didn't want to do as it was messy, i decided to start fresh with a new photos library and just copy/drag the photos over from my aperture albums/folders. Firstly, am I right in assuming when i do this, it will actually hardcopy the photo over into the photos library and not just a link or a soft copy from aperture? Therefore i can delete the aperture library once all photos are copied over and i will still have all the original photos in the new app? Just to note, i didn't use referenced files in aperture.
Secondly, unless I'm being really stupid, none of my older videos taken on IPHONES seem to copy over, even from just last year using an iPhone 5. the format seems to be .MOV.
Now, SURELY, apple are not going to release an photos app that DOESN"T support the importing of videos taken on their own phones from just a few months ago?

Hi. Your understanding of how the copies from your old library are not quite correct, but the bottom line is you would be able to delete your old Aperture library afterwards (or at some point, which might be a wiser approach). I used iPhoto not Aperture so I'm not sure if it's the same but take note of what you are actually exporting so you keep any GPS, date, keyword information etc. etc. you might have added.
Some have encountered this movie issue and found that simply exporting it to the desktop before adding it to Photos is enough, others have found the export to the desktop works but not the import into Photos and have had to use Quicktime to export it again to an Apple Device compatible format. Clearly the videos should be supported, I don't believe Apple have decided not to but rather that something has/is going wrong.

Acting a suggestion from another answer in this thread, I clicked on Computer and selected eject...windows did warn me that the device was in use, but also gave me a CONTINUE button, which I clicked and it was ejected...had to go back to iTunes and eject the iPod there also, but it did eject

  • Enquiries on whether fla can be linked to another fla, swf to flv or other video format and buttons to an animation

    I have 3 enquiries.
    1) How do I embed another fla within fla.
    For example, I am working on a fla, is it possible to create
    a link to another fla via a button?
    2) How do i convert a swf file into a flv file or any other
    video format like avi, mp4, etc?
    I am asking this because I realized when I try to import a
    swf into my fla file, I could only bundle it for mobile. Neither
    the progressive nor the streaming nor the embeding options could be
    checked.
    3) After adding tweening motion to an animation, is it
    possible to add buttons to play/pause? Do I have to write a script
    to enable the buttons to work?
    I tried adding buttons (Windows>components>video),
    however, the buttons were not functioning like the case when I
    imported a video. I think it's because adding tweening to an
    animation doesn't really dismiss it as a video file.
    I would greatly appreaciate if anyone could post a solution
    to my problems.
    Thanks.

    I am not so sure that this is a bug, and I have not been able to reproduce this behavior that you are describing. 
    But you can lock it from editing by right-clicking on the graph and go to Properties>>Appearance>>Enabled State --> Disabled
    Also, word of advice for the future: You will get more replies from the community with shorter posts and keeping it to one question per post. Summarize what the issue is, and put the detailed documentation and instructions to reproduce in the actual VI.

  • Video formats and payment

    I am considering buying either Adobe Premiere Elements 12 or 13 but i wanted to know a couple of things first. I will be using this editing software for creating videos on YouTube and therefore i need the software to include the ability to have Multi-Cam videos. Secondly, the recording software that i use (nVidia Shadowplay) saves videos in MP4V format, so i was wondering if MP4V is a format that i can use in either of these programs. And finally, I know that Premiere Elements 12 is a one off payment, but is Elements 13 a one off payment or an annual payment?

  • Video formats and resizing

    Hi All,
    Before emabrking on a further iTunes ugrade I was wondering whether anybody knows whether iTunes will import video into itunes like it does music.
    That is, will it take a mpg file or avi and convert it to mov/mp4 thatit can deal with.
    Also will do what it does with photos and the ipod, ie will it resize (optimise) the video to the QVGA size for display on the new iPod, leaving the high res movie on the computer for viewing on the monitor?
    Anybody have any idea?
    Cheers

  • Video format and specs

    Which video format is the best to use for iPhone 4S ? What are the specs to use when I convert a video? What size? Frame rate? Video bit rate?

    Your screen resolution is 960x640 pixels but the size that you will choose depends of the aspect ratio. If you keep 640 pixel for height you will be safe.
    Keep the original frame rate
    If you don't delete the original video, 2,5Mbps is super for your iPhone (you can try 1,5Mb) and its about 20 MB (or 12MB) per minute.

  • ITunes Error and another question

    So one day I was listening to my 30GB Video Ipod and it froze. I went about restarting it with the hold button, and the rest of the stuff. However, this time it started it was a bit different, it erased all of the songs on my Ipod. Or so I thought. Now when I connect it to iTunes it says that over half of my ipod is filled with "Other" but there are no songs, videos, anything listed. What's the reason for this?
    Also, I tried connecting to itunes store and it says "iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store. You do not have permission to access the requested resource." I'm using firefox and I'm not sure why it's not letting me connect.
    Thanks guys,
    Mike

    Mmm, just been back into my iPod screen and my manual setting was no longer checked! Not changed by me so the install must have overridden the settings I had on the iPod. And guess what, not responding for about the 20th time in the past hour. I have new music to put on my iPod and new videos, I want to be able to do this and I just wish I had not spotted there was an iTunes update as I would not be having these problems. I wonder how much time all the people posting here have wasted since iTunes 7 was released? I initially lost everything on my Nano when I first installed 7 but the 60 GB video was fine. I have passed that to a friend and purchased the 80 GB and with the first release of 7 that was fine (other than not being able to add the playlists mentioned above), but now with this new update I am stuck with an iPod with only a fraction of the music I want on it - that's why I spent money on buying an 80 Gb version.

  • And another question on video

    While I'm here, I have another itunes problem. I bought a daily pass to the Daily Show. It's great, except the quality of the video is TERRIBLE!!! There is a tremendous lag between what I see and what I hear and it looks pretty pixelated. This happens on most of the episodes. I have downloaded many other programs from itunes and did not have this problem. Any ideas?
    Thanks again.

    I am not familiar with the daily pass, but is this video streamed or do you actually download the entire files? The videos you download from iTunes are specifically made for the iPod so they have a 320x240 resolution which would look pretty bad fullscreen on a computer.
    Hope that answers your question.

  • 2 questions: Video quality and another...

    Hey everyone! Newbie to the forum but I have two questions
    1.) I decrypted DVD and converted them (along with other videos) to .MP4 files using Videora iPod Converter. Yet the video quality when connected to the TV is not as good... is there a way I could change this? Perhaps a different program?
    2.) I was also wondering, since you can see the video playing on TV, is there a way you could show the menus and everthing else (games, notes, etc.)??? I have iQuiz and that'd be fun to do on the TV!
    Thanks much. Love the products Apple!!!

    In general, the only thing you can get to appear on a television screen is video content. There are a couple of third party docks that will show some menus (Griffin, DLO). But currently, not notes or games.

  • Quick question(For people who know about video formats and stuff)

    What type of media file is AVI? Because I looked on the list of codecs compatible with iPod and it didn't say if it was compatible or not, maybe it's something else. If you know, please tell me

    For the formats that were not compatible, I converted them, and it then played the video, but with no sound. I want to get South of Nowhere for a friend on my ipod, butt he only format they come in is AVI and MPG. MPG is quicktime, I know that so it won't work. But what is AVI. Of course I could buy it from the iTunes music store, but I am a kid with no credit card, and my parents wouldn't dare trust me with that

  • Video formats and optimum settings for both Mac and Windows XP

    Now this is a strange one: I create a Windows Media (WMV) file and it plays great on the Mac (I have Flip4Mac installed also). However, it doesn't play on Windows XP in MSIE -- but the QuickTime (.M4V file) does. I do have QuickTime installed on the WXP. I guess the following questions are of interest not only to me but to a lot of people:
    1. What are the absolute optimum settings and format for a QuickTime file that will be played on an Apple in Safari or other browser? .MOV? .M4V? .MP4?
    2. Same question for Windows XP. .AVI? .WMV?
    I know there is a lot of already available information on this but I'm looking for a video expert who has troubleshot this to death and has this down and working on an existing website.
    NOTE: I would make it a Flash file but Keynote exports a non-playing Flash format file as does QuickTime, so no luck there. Also, for some stupid reason Keynote separates the audio and video when exporting to a QuickTime movie and what's with that?
    Sorry this got long but not only I, but I'm sure a lot of people have this set of questions. Much appreciated.

    Depends – if you are planning on connecting to an Exchange Server then I would suggest that you install Crossover (www.codeweavers.com) on your Mac’s and then Office 2003/Outlook. I am connecting to an Exchange Server running Windows Small Business Server 2003 and have not had any problems using Outlook and sharing Calendar data between my XP and Mac systems.
    If you are not planning on using Exchange and your mail usage is not that demanding (less than 20 messages daily) the you could use the basic Mail clients that come with OSX (Mail) and Windows (Outlook Express).

  • Upgrading Itunes with an external hard drive and another question

    Okay so about a month ago I transferred my itunes library to my external hard drive. I have since purchased and downloaded new music/video to my Ipod. Here are my questions if anyone can help me please.
    1) Because I moved the library to the external, does that mean I also moved the Itunes program OR just the place where new music is downloaded/purchased and save to?
    2) Upgrading to new Itunes on this computer, will that ruin what I have in my library or just upgrade and keep everything the same like it is now?
    3) Horror story I heard is that when I upgrade, I may have to re-purchase music from Itunes in order for it to play on new Itunes. If that's true then I am paying like $400+.
    I'm not a dummy, but this Ipod and music are very, very important to me. Any help would be very appreciated.
    Sincerely,

    so because you have kept your itunes folder and library on an EHD, I take it you have also deleted the actual Itunes program folder from your computer's C drive?
    Not the program folder, iTunes folder where your music library and ancillary files are kept. I haven't had my iTunes music on any internal hard drive on any computer for years.
    I am trying to delete the music/movies off of this PC as it is my work station as well.
    What steps do I need to take in order to successfully ensure that my Itunes will be secured on my EHD and fully operable should I want to add more music, purchase more music, or delete/re-arrange music as I am doing now.
    Check in Preferences>Advanced to make sure that iTunes is pointed to your EHD. If it is, you should be fine. Then, just to make sure that everything is where it should be consolidate your library: File>Library>Organize Library.
    Follow-up: If I move the program over to my EHD does that mean I can use any PC to download music into the Itunes library from my EHD?
    I don't think you want to move the iTunes.exe file to your EHD. As I understand it, iTunes isn't really happy there and it takes some work to get it there. Just move the library.
    I'm asking because you responded and you're cute.
    Very happy to help but really, I'm not that cute.

  • Time Machine/Capsule -- 2.93GHzx -- and another question.

    I upgraded my PowerBook G4 (1.67GHz and 2 GB DDR2 SDRAM) from Tiger to Leopard 10.5.6. I did so largely to get Time Machine. And then I ran into all sorts of woes doing my back-ups. So I took another step and replaced my external 2TB Lacie drive (that I was using for Time Machine) with a 500 GB Time Capsule. It arrived today and is right now in the middle of its first back-up. We shall see how well it fares with Time Machine. I am crossing my fingers. Does anyone see anything right or wrong I did in this exercise?
    Meanwhile, I am going to take the plunge and buy a new MacBook Pro. I want to load it up. But I have a question: Is the 2.93GHz Intel Core 2 Duo THAT MUCH better than the 2.66GHz Intel Core 2 Duo? It costs $300 more and I’m wondering if 0.27GHz makes such a significant ($300) difference — bearing in mind that I will be running Final Cut Pro, etc, and want the best I can get in strength and speed. But I don't want to blow $300 for window dressing that does not deliver. Bottom line: is an extra 0.27 GHz that significant or that much of a game changer?
    And one more question: Is it OK to use your Mac and its other apps while Time Machine is running? Or does that cause a problem?
    Of course, I’m not asking you all to write a thesis paper on all this but your quick opinion would be gratefully appreciated.
    Thank you -- and thank heavens for this discussion groups.

    Depends on what sort of problems you had with the LaCie. If the problem wasn't with the drive itself, you may not have gained much, if anything. TC's are more convenient in some ways, but also much slower.
    And since you can't partition a TC disk, I'd advise against putting any other data there: if you ever want or have to erase all your TM backups and start over, you'll have to copy that other data somewhere temporarily.
    And one more question: Is it OK to use your Mac and its other apps while Time Machine is running? Or does that cause a problem?
    It's fine. You may have slower response time, especially using the internet while doing a wireless backup, but TM won't crash or fail to back up.
