What formats does FCE 4.0 handle?

I have movie files off a Sony Handcam and it is produced as a mpg. Quick time can play them, imovie won't edit them.
Does FCE 4.0 edit .mpg files? If not, any other suggestions?

that's quite normal:
mpeg is a delivery codec. for editing in iM, audio and video have to be individual streams within the file.. mpeg is well-known for 'muxing' the streams.. so, for usage in iM, they have to be de-muxed.
a) use the intended workflow - if your cam is a still-cam with the ability for moving images, import via iPhoto, use the MediaBrowser to get access in iM - this workflow cares for converting
b) .. or, your device is supported by iM (list here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3290?viewlocale=en_US ) = import via 'Import from camcorder' and don't care for codecs ..
c) .. or use designated converter tools as Mpeg Streamclip, to convert into a iM/FCE compatible format...

  • What format does Imovie Accept

    Hello community, i just got a macbook a month ago, and now im trying to make a movie in Imovie, but when i try to drag the video from my usb to Imovie there happens nothing, the format is .AVI
    So does any of you got a idea of what i should do?
    Merry Chrismas from:

    You need to convert the .avi format... I use something from WonderShare but it's $40 - just Googled and found this. Since it's free, it wouldn't hurt to give it a try. You can also try the WonderShare converter for a certain period of time - see if it works for you.

  • What language does FCE come in?

    When I plan to purchase my macbook pro I can choose to have the english version of os x 10.5.1
    I also want to include FCE 4, however I dont know what language FCE comes in.
    Does it support many languages on 1 cd, but installs to your default os language?
    Thank you

    If the Mac OS current language ("primary system language") is in the list of languages in the Get Info finder window for any application, that application runs with the same Mac OS current language.
    If you disable the primary system language in the Get Info window, English is used. If you disable also English, you get some other (enabled) language chosen in a way that is not clear to me... (not alphabetical, not in the displayed sequence...). In any case by disabling what you don't need at the end you get to the language you want, as long as it is in the list.
    Now, don't ask me how to add or remove languages from that list in the Get Info window: there are Add and Remove buttons, but I never used them...

  • HT5639 What format does the bootable usb you create in boot camp have to be?

    I have tried several formats and aeve partitioned my usb but there is always the error when formatting this disk.
    What is the right format?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    When Boot Camp Assistant formats the USB drive, it uses FAT32 (Disk Utility identifies it as "MS-DOS (FAT)") and then, it copies the files. What happens when you try to copy the Windows support software or a Windows ISO onto it? Also, note that if the problem happens when you try to copy the Windows support software, you can download it manually from the Apple website and copy them manually > http://support.apple.com/downloads

    This is what is in the MuVo FAQ at Nomadness.net: <EM>In MP3 encoding mode (line-in), you have a choice of 96, 28, and 60 kbps at 44. KHz. The only other option is auto-sync mode to handle CD tracks.</EM>

  • Are You Trying To Edit A Format FCE Can't Handle? Take A Look Here.

    Lately a number of people have been having problems editing formats that FCE can't handle easily.
    I came across this link for FREE Mac video editing applications:-
    http://tv.isg.si/site/?q=node/873
    You will find apps for Windows and Linux platforms as well.
    I have no idea how good (or bad) they are, but thought that anybody trying to edit a weird format may find them useful alongside FCE ........ I could be completely wrong, but as they cost nothing you have nothing to lose - except time.
    Just noticed the article is over 3 years old, but the apps are still there for download ....... don't know how well they will work on the latest Macs, but you are not paying anything!

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    To summarize your problem:
    1. It happens with more than one version of iPhoto.
    2. It happens in more that one account.
    3. It happens with more than one OS.
    Try some basic remedies. I don't think they will solve the problem, but it can't hurt to try them. Quit iPhoto and delete your iPhoto preferences. To do this, go to your username> library> preferences> com.apple.iphoto.plist. Delete this file. Then reopen iPhoto; it will create a new preference file with all of the default settings.
    Do a verify and repair of permissions using Disk Utility.
    My feeling is that this is a hardware rather than software problem. If the problem persists, I suggest that you post in the PowerMac G5 forum.
    I hope this helps.

  • What format do the Quicktime files need to be in?

    okay so i just got a mac. haven't had time to play with it much. but quick easy (prolly dumb) question.
    what format does the quicktime file need to be in (both audio and video)?
    and
    how do i get my movies into that format?
    *i do have handbrake as well.
    Thanks

    Where did your files come from and what are you trying to do with them.
    BTW, if what you are trying to do involves starting with commercial, copy protected DVDs, using HB, and then making copies of those commercial DVDs, we can not help you here under the Apple Forum Terms of Use. Sorry.
    If your movies were actually created by you or a friend, we will be glad to try and help you figure things out.

  • Item - IMAGE What formats can it display, is there a catch for others?

    We use 10g Forms/App server.
    Couple of questions about the item IMAGE in forms.
    I have a BLOB that I want to display a preview of. What formats does this show and is it the best item to show a preview?
    Also if the document stored in the BLOB is not in a format the IMAGE type can render then I would like to just show a standard image (i.e. a No preview available image). What is best way to accomplish this as it is a DB item and i do not want to overwrite the document?

    The forms version I use just allow JFIF as JPG file.
    But today, all JPG files uses EXIF format.
    Does anyone know if new versions of forms allow this type and if there is a patch to older versions?

    I ONLY use

    or if audio is in iTunes I then I collect needed sounds into a new PlayList - Then I burn this as a Standard Audio-CD (NO .mp3)
    So - for me - no .mp3, .vma or other strange formats - all converted to .aiff
    So I convert all 32 kHz audio to 48 kHz (else my audio goes out of sync.

  • Output format does not match project settings

    I'm a 3d animator creating a personal demo reel. I want to create a quicktime movie.
    1) create a new project, DV NTSC (720x480).
    2) import source material (QT movies and TIF's) that are 720x480.
    3) export using compressor set to a 720x480 format (eg DV NTSC 4:3).
    4) Problem: the exported quicktime comes out at 640x480, and the contents are visibly stretched.
    Why?
    What should I set my project to?
    What format does my source material need to be in before import?
    What should I set compressor to at export?
    I have tried setting the project to 640x480, but then found that I need to scale my source material to 720x480, otherwise it appears stretched in the exported movie.
    Thanks!

    I'd like to do two things 1) quicktime movie that I can put online, and 2) dvd.
    Say I have a TIF still image. It's 720x480. I want to export that out of FCP and watch it in QuickTime Player. I guess my question is how do I make the result in QT Player look the same as it did in FCP?
    I just tried setting the pixel aspect ratio to 0.9 in Photoshop, but got the same result.
    Will I need to have two completely different FCP projects, one for online and one for dvd?
    (yes, the exported file did look the same when I brought it back into FCP)

  • In what character format does CS5 Export HTML?

    In what character format does indesign export html?
    I am having trouble writting a parsing script because text that looks like:
    of mutations to particular “hotspot” regions
    becomes, to my chagrin,
    of mutations to particular “hotspot� regions
    Here is my java code that simulates this problem. Perhaps somebody knows which encoding to choose on Windows 7 pro x64?
        public static int CopyFile()
            try
            StringBuffer sb = null;
            String NullSpace = System.getProperty("line.separator");
            //Writer output = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(outputFile));
            BufferedWriter output = new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(new FileOutputStream(outputFile),"UTF-8"));
            String line;
            BufferedReader input =  new BufferedReader(new FileReader(myFile));
            while((line = input.readLine())!=null)
                    sb = new StringBuffer();
                    //Parsing happens
                    sb.append(line);
                    output.write(sb.toString()+NullSpace);
                return 0;
            catch (Exception e)
                return 1;

    This particular line is the culprit (a case of What You Ask Is What You Get, really a rarity):
    BufferedWriter output = new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(new FileOutputStream(outputFile),"UTF-8"));
    -- and what you see is UTF-8 Encoding in action (rather, what you see with a non-UTF-8 aware text editor).
    Check the Javascript Tools Guide, section "File- and Folder-supported encoding names", for an encoding that better suits your needs. Actually, you might want to check the generated HTML file -- UTF8 is a perfectly acceptable character encoding, but you have to tell your browser it is this one.
    Alternatively, you can always check the string buffer text for any character codes (which are Unicodes) above 126 and replace these with the universal "&#xxx;" notation for out-of-range character codes.
