Videos are wrong format

I bought some music videos and tv shows on itunes. however, it says they are the wrong format for my ipod. i have the 5th generation video so everything should be okay. i also tried reformatting and it said there was an error. it shouldn't even need to be reformatted since i bought it from itunes, right?? HELP!

I think you hit it right on the head I can't seem to get CNN podcasts to run either and I'm sure it has something to do with them not putting them together properly. You would think that a HUGE corporation like that would get it right

    I have just purchased an ipod classic 160GB and decided to sync my itunes music and videos that I purchased via itunes.  All the music sunk but it didnt sync my videos.  It said that they were in the wrong format.  What to do??   I would have thought if I bought the films from itunes it would be compatible with an ipod classic??  How do you change the video format?

    My mistake, it was nothing to do with format.  It woldn't sync because my movies were HD.  HD movies won't sync to an iopd classic 160 GB but when you purchase a HD movie, itunes gives you a SD vervsion of the movie which is compatible with the ipod.  Just needed to go to store, click movies, click purchased and untick the HD box and there you have the SD versions.  Download the SD versions and then sync your ipod and bobs you uncle, movies are on the ipod

  • I have Video camera movies that are HD format.. I am doing editing work on them using Final Cut Pro, but using DV PAL format for the projects I am editing. When I then tried to copy my work done in FCP Project that's originally DV PAL , into a new FCP Pro

    I have Video camera movies that are HD format.. I am doing editing work on them using Final Cut Pro, but using DV PAL format for the projects I am editing. When I then tried to copy my work done in FCP Project that's originally DV PAL , into a new FCP Project that is HD, and tried reconnect media with original HD movies (video), the sequence project got distorted for all the text, shapes used and all.. everything changed its orientation and scale.. Is there a way by which I can preserve my work done on DV PAL and switch it preserving its proportions, scale and orientation, but on a HD project sequence?? Appreciate your help and advice..

    Yes.  A couple of ways that might work.
    First Way
    What you need to do is load one of your hd clips in the viewer and edit into a new HD sequence.  Does it display correctionly? 
    OK, select the clip in the hd timeline and copy (command-c).  Now go to the HD sequence with the material that's distorted.  Select all (command-a) and paste attributes (option-v) and choose basic motion and distort.  That should maek things work.  What won't work is anything that you've adjusted as far as basic motion or distort in your PAL sequence.  That I'm pretty sure you'll have to redo.
    Second Way. 
    Choose your original PAL sequence and do a Media Manage changing the sequence preset to the appropriate HD paramenters with the media offline.  You then should be able to reconnect these clips with your original HD media.

  • When I add media from my dLink surveillance camera, the avi files always land in audio instead of the video area. Why, and how can I get them to land as visual?

    I am trying to edit some of the surveillance videos taken from our dLink camera of the dogs playing when we are not home, but when I import the .avi files, it always just goes to the audio portion (of Premiere Elements 11) and nothing shows up as video. What am I doing wrong? Please know, I am completely new at this program, since I bought it for the purpose of playing with my dLink home camera videos and haven't been able to do a single thing with them as of yet due to how they are importing. I did "get media" from my Bloggie camera to see if that worked, and it did come across as a video and not just audio, so I am not sure why the other isn't working.

    ATR, just to make sure you understand me, all my video clips in my folders appear as the first frame of the video clip when I view my folders as (small, medium, large)icons instead of lists, when saved as .avi files but when saved as .mp4 files, those icons display as a graphic icon of filmstrip with a musical note on it. I do have various other methods to open with (quick time, windows media, winamp or real player) but prefer real player because I like it's quick and easy trimmer that comes along with it, since so many of my videos are just pet antics where you need to clip off the boring beginning and ends of the video.
    I did go on a few of the icons and right clicked, Open With, and tried quick time and also Windows Media and it did nothing as far as how the file was saved for display, and they opened the same no matter which player I used...the actual video opens and plays right at it's first frame... but it's the way it is visually displayed in STORAGE that bugs me because it isn't immediately apparent to me what it is a video of (weddings, outside the house, pet antics)... it makes me have to actually title things and read titles where before I let it just be dates because I had the visual of that first frame as a reference. Obviously, this is a problem for unedited videos only, as anything I actually work with, I do give a title along with the date of the video.
    I also just realized this seems to be the way ALL videos that are wrapped in .mp4 are displayed, as my bloggie camera's videos appear the same way. Now I know why! My other videos display as .avi's so I see the frame. Puzzle solved. Guess I'll just have to learn to live with it, as it seems to be how things display with the various formats.
    Now I need to watch some tutorials to learn how this Premiere program works! It's all new to me, since this is the first time I've been able load any of my videos onto it. I haven't even been able to figure out how to trim on it yet!

  • Continuos acquisition video and record video in AVI format

    Hello,
    I want to make a continuos acquisition of video with a webcam and record video in AVI format with a number of frames per second equal to 60, and with a possibility to choose the period of acquisition in the window '' front panal '' but the problem is that when I selected an acquisition time of 1 minute supervision
    video takes a time of 1 minute but I get an AVI video recorded with a duration of 15 seconds !!

    I'm sorry, you didn't understand what I wanted you to do.  You might have "done the right thing", but I can't be sure.  Your original program (as I understood it) recorded images from the camera for a fixed period of time that you set (so you knew the recording time) -- what I wanted to know for the original camera was (a) what was the recording time and (b) how many frames were taken.
    The second program that you just attached does the opposite -- it records a fixed number of frames (a better way to do this is to use a FOR loop and just wire 900 to N in the upper left hand corner).  If you are going to record a fixed number of frames, then I want to know how much time it takes to record.  You can do this by doing something like what is shown below (with the FOR loop example).
    I realize that this is in the "wrong" version of LabVIEW, but it just involves adding two Tick Count functions to your Camera loop.  If it does say that Delta-t = 15000 (15 seconds), then the main question, "Is the camera recording at 60 FPS", is answered as "Yes".  In any case, we should have enough data to make your code work as you want it to.

  • ITunes detects and plays video at wrong resolution?

    I just reinstalled Leopard on my mac mini, and when I finished I copied my old iTunes music and videos back into the iTunes folder, then got iTunes to import it. All my music and most of my video imported fine, except for all the stuff I'd recorded with eyeTV. In quicktime these files play full screen with no bar, and are listed as 1024x576. iTunes on the other hand has decided that they are 1456x576 and when it plays them squishes them down vertical so there is a black bar top and bottom. They are visible squished...so iTunes is definitely wrong here, anyone know how to fix it though?

    I've seen your screengrabs at macnews.de (would be helpful to publish here either...)
    http://www.webgraphics.at/macnews/Quicktime.png
    http://www.webgraphics.at/macnews/iTunes.png
    the 'native' res of your files is 704x576.. and your .m4v - files are anamorph-flagged, so QTplayer does correctly show a playback size of 1024x576 res.
    but..
    if your files get on the process of copying 'lost' their internal m4v tagging.. (= 'transmorphed' to mov), e.g., you used a fat32-formatted drive for your transfer, these 'metadata' got lost.. then, indeed, iTunes will read 1024 as width for an 'anamorph' video, which results in that infamous 1489 pix width..
    guess, that is a) a user generated error (=wrong copy process, or wrong formatted drive), or we have the finger (again) on a QT 'bug' ... these 'flags' are an excellent option to get lost..
    hopefully, QTKirk will join this thread..

  • Movie won't sync to ipad from itunes- wrong format

    I downloaded the new movie brave in HD, and it won't sync to my first generation Ipad. My settings were already set to download at 720p. It says the movie is in the wrong format? I have NEVEr had this problem

    I've recenly had the same thing.  iPad 1, and as of about two weeks ago, it won't sync any TV videos downloaded from the iTunes store. I can download directly, but would really like to know why I can't sync the content across.  iTunes claims that the videos are in the wrong format. Movies seem to be ok, but TV shows won't go across.  I've made sure everything is checkmarked, and tried selecting directly, I've even wasted a day restoring the iPad and reinstalling all apps as new.  No joy...
    Any thoughts gratefully received!

  • Adding data file to the existing tablespace given wrong format file name

    Hi
    while adding the data file existing tablespace. i given wrong format '/dev/oracle/data/user_data_02' i miss the .dbf extension for this data file.
    Alter tablespace ts2 add datafile '/dev/oracle/data/user_data_02' size 200m
    the data file was created.
    So i want to know. What will happen if the data file is wrong format?
    Thanks in advance

    it doesnt matter what you name the file. oracle will be able to use it. if you need to change the name to meet your naming conventions, then you will need to take the db down and rename the file at the OS level and then startup mount to rename the file at the DB level.
    why are you puting files in /dev? Thats for devices.

  • I'm using ezcap.tv 116 ezgamer capture card to record my PS3, this is on a windows laptop, Im then moving the recorded videos in mpg format over to my MacBook Pro to use IMovie to edit them to upload to youtube but it won't let me import them.

    I'm using ezcap.tv 116 ezgamer capture card to record my PS3, this is on a windows laptop, Im then moving the recorded videos in mpg format over to my MacBook Pro to use IMovie to edit them so i can upload them to youtube but it won't let me import them, even after changeing them to MP4 format, it just comes up with the message: "No Importable Files None of the selected files or folders can be imported. Change the selection and try again."
    Ive even tried opening in itunes and copying from thier but they wont open in Itunes, no message or anything they simple just dont open. its strange because it does open in quicktime player.
    please if anyone has any ideas that can help me please let me know XD thanks.

    First problem: You're fine. The hotter it gets, the more the fans spin up. The computer is designed so that at max load, at max fan speed, it won't overheat (unless it's obstructed by something, e.g. sitting on your bed swallowed by a comforter). It's not the best thing to keep it that toasty for days at a time, but a couple hours at a time shouldn't be a problem.
    Second problem: If something in the trash won't delete, just use Secure Empty Trash and it should be fine. Since .torrent files are quite small, it should only take a couple seconds.

  • Videos are too dark to watch on Macbook pro?

    Ever since I got my Macbook pro a year ago, videos are too dark to watch at any setting.

    Hi Paul,
    Sorry for the late answer. I live in Europe, so that's why I was asleep ;-)
    Basically the command tells your computer to unhide everything on your Desktop, so if you don't have a Desktop, something is definitely wrong.
    My guess is that there's something wrong with your account on that computer. You can check that by creating a new account in System Preferences (click on Accounts, click the lock in the bottom-left corner and then click the "+" button just above).
    Then try mounting "some" media and see if it appears on the new user's Desktop. If not, I would highly recommend to reinstall Mac OS X.
    HTH,
    Jasper.

  • How do I save my video in jpeg format so I can add picture to it and burn a DVD through Photo Explosion version 4

    How do I save my video in jpeg format so I can add picture to it and burn a DVD through Photo Explosion version 4

    LRP
    Thanks for the follow up.
    In Premiere Elements 13/13.1, your export choices are in the Publish+Share section of the project. There are several choices and sub-choices.
    Example: Publish+Share/Computer/and then a list of choices under that, such as, MPEG, AVI, AVCHD, XAVC-S, Windows Media, QuickTime, Image, Audio.
    And each has Presets which define the export settings. Adobe offers default settings which are usually optimized ones. But, it also allows you to customize the preset selected. You do that by clicking on the Advanced Button of the selected preset and customizing the settings under the Video Tab, Audio Tab, and, if applicable, Multiplexer Tab.
    From what you wrote, I thought that you might be asking about exporting a video with a video codec = Photo JPEG.
    To do that you would to to
    Publish+Share
    Computer
    QuickTime
    with Presets = either the one for 4:3 of 16:9 as appropriate for your project,
    and then clicking on the Advanced Button, and then the Video Tab under the Advanced Button.
    Then selecting Photo JPEG for the video codec field.
    Tip: The QuickTime choice is not seen unless you scroll down the list of Computer choices. Use the thin scroll bar to the right of the Computer choices.
    Please explore Premiere Elements 13/13.1's Publish+Share/Disc/DVD with standard or widescreen preset for your creation of the DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc.
    The Premiere Elements timeline destined for this choice could consistent of supported photos and or videos.
    Please consider.
    Any questions and need clarification, please do not hesitate to ask.

  • Slo mo videos are no longer accessible

    I've been taking some slo mo videos lately and was planning to back them up to my raid storage as soon as iPhone's memory went critical.
    So yesterday I noticed I had less than a gig available. So I though I'd back them up tonight. So when I got home tonight I went in to do so and I first checked my available space. Weirdly it was 3,4 gigs... ˆˆ
    Ok I though I probably was wrong yesterday but I should just back up anyway.
    I connected the phone with the photos app and went straight to the slo - mo videos. I was amazed to see that only half or even less than that were available to import! That's when I started to worry. I quickly imported those and went looking for the rest. On the iPhone they still appear there. I had checked to backup everything on the iCloud, keeping the full original file there when space on the iPhone is required. I suppose that's what happened so I tried to find those files on the photos app. Weird... my iCloud photos are not available on the photos app. I mean I don't see an iCloud section there. The actual photos are there I suppose but they seem to be imported from iPhoto. Besides I also import photos using the manual import from the photos app so photos are there but can't tell which ones are on the iCloud.
    If I go to iCloud.com I see all the iCloud photos and all the videos but the slo-mo videos are not the original ones. Trying to download them you get compressed versions in mp4 of the original mov file that I captured. That means that the slo mo is gone. Much of the information is gone, and also the beginning and end parts that were displayed in normal motion are no longer moveable. They are fixed!
    Going to the iPhone the slo mo videos are available but when you try to play them back a continuous loading keeps telling you to wait. They refuse to play back.
    So you can't download them there either.
    Are my videos lost?
