What's the best quality way to download video taken on my iPhone 4s to iMovie?

Looks like my only options are to email, message or send to YouTube. I want these videos taken to be put in iMovie. I thinking the quality and size of the video file is decrease by emailing it to me.

Another thought. Might this work?
1. Backup my iPhone to my MacBook (instead of iCloud)
2. Sync my iPhone with my new iTunes library (it would now be associated with the MacBook)
3. Restore my iPhone from the backup in step 1 (would this re-associate my phone with the old computer, or would it stay with the MacBook?)
4. Do the restore a second time (to put the apps back in their proper order/arrangement)
5. Sync my iPhone with the music library on the MacBook
6. Set up the iPhone to backup to iCloud again, as it was originally
I don't want to just try it and lose my data. Is this a viable option?

What is the Best Quality Export??

Hi. I am editing a documentary, and i need to know what is the *BEST QUALITY export for my movie out of Final Cut Pro (6.0.2)*. All the video was f*ilmed using the Canon XL1S*. When i export and burn to DVD the image looks a bit fuzzy. I don't know if it is some how compressed, but *it does not look as "crisp" or sharp as the original image recorded onto the Mini DV*. I have been exporting test using the *"Current Settings" of the timeline wich i believe is the DV NTSC 48 kHz* setting. *Please Help!!!*

Shane's Stock Answer #3: How to output lossless Quicktime movies
To export your project so there is no loss in quality, simply go to the File Menu and select EXPORT>QUICKTIME MOVIE. Not Quicktime Conversion, fot this will compress the footage. Make sure the settings match your timeline settings, make it self contained, do NOT recompress the footage, and you are set.
I believe that you are doing it right. Now, to get that into DVD SP the best way possible, you have to use Compressor and the BEST QUALITY presets. Take THOSE resulting files into DVD SP.

You can try these setting. They are from CS5.5 but should work in CS4.
Make sure you check Use Max. Render Quality.

Why can't we see the details of a picture or video taken with our iphone or Ipad? Detail like when it was taken the picture or when the movie was filmed. I think that this very very important for our memories.

Yes, I know that, but it was easier to see it on the Iphone self, like the other company phones. The name of the picture taken should be the date when it was taken.

What is the best practice for full browser video to achieve the highest quality?

I'd like to get your thoughts on the best way to deliver full-browser (scale to the size of the browser window) video. I'm skilled in the creation of the content but learning to make the most out of Flash CS5 and would love to hear what you would suggest.
Most of the tutorials I can find on full browser/scalable video are for earlier versions of Flash; what is the best practice today? Best resolution/format for the video?
If there is an Adobe guide to this I'm happy to eat humble pie if someone can redirect me to it; I'm using CS5 Production Premium.
I like the full screen video effect they have on the "Sounds of pertussis" web-site; this is exactly what I'm trying to create but I'm not sure what is the best way to approach it - any hints/tips you can offer would be great?
Thanks in advance!

Use the little squares over your video to mask the quality. Sounds of Pertussis is not full screen video, but rather full stage. Which is easier to work with since all the controls and other assets stay on screen. You set up your html file to allow full screen. Then bring in your video (netstream or flvPlayback component) and scale that to the full size of your stage (since in this case it's basically the background) . I made a quickie demo here. (The video is from a cheapo SD consumer camera, so pretty poor quality to start.)
In AS3 is would look something like
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.display.Bitmap;
import flash.display.BitmapData;
import flash.ui.Mouse;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.display.StageDisplayState;
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
// determine current stage size
var sw:int = int(stage.stageWidth);
var sh:int = int(stage.stageHeight);
// load video
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);
var vid:Video = new Video(656, 480); // size off video
this.addChildAt(vid, 0);
vid.attachNetStream(ns);
//path to your video_file
ns.play("content/GS.f4v");
var netClient:Object = new Object();
ns.client = netClient;
// add listener for resizing of the stage so we can scale our assets
stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, resizeHandler);
stage.dispatchEvent(new Event(Event.RESIZE));
function resizeHandler(e:Event = null):void
// determine current stage size
    var sw:int = stage.stageWidth;
    var sh:int = stage.stageHeight;
// scale video size depending on stage size
    vid.width = sw;
    vid.height = sh;
// Don't scale video smaller than certain size
    if (vid.height < 480)
    vid.height = 480;
    if (vid.width < 656)
    vid.width = 656;
// choose the smaller scale property (x or y) and match the other to it so the size is proportional;
    (vid.scaleX > vid.scaleY) ? vid.scaleY = vid.scaleX : vid.scaleX = vid.scaleY;
// add event listener for full screen button
fullScreenStage_mc.buttonMode = true;
fullScreenStage_mc.mouseChildren = false;
fullScreenStage_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goFullStage, false, 0, true);
function goFullStage(event:MouseEvent):void
    //vid.fullScreenTakeOver = false; // keeps flvPlayer component from becoming full screen if you use it instead
    if (stage.displayState == StageDisplayState.NORMAL)
        stage.displayState=StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN;
    else
        stage.displayState=StageDisplayState.NORMAL;

MP3 BOUNCING WHAT IS THE BEST QUALITY

what is the best possible mp3 quality to bounce out of logic.
THANKS
FRANK

i recently bought a song from i tunes and itunes has this protective code on the mp3 that does not allow me to import the song into the arrange window.
That's an .m4p file - it's protected and won't load in to Logic. You could burn it to CD, then rip the CD back in to an .aif or .mp3 file and load that in to Logic, but you'll lose quality.
As to your second question: why do you want to protect an .mp3? If you're planning to allow access to file(s) on the internet, consider streaming them, or get yourself an account with someone like myspace.com and allow access that way.

What's the best quality export for a 720 X 480 size, 24fps mp4 file?

Whats the best quality export for a 720 X 480 size, 24fps mp4 file?
This movie trailer will be sent to a distributer overseas.
The export I been resorting to lately is MPEG 2 DV High Quality as oppose to anything HDTV because it just shrinks the picture, obviously lol
Do I have anymore options besides Mpeg 2: NTSC DV High Quality?

Lagarith is a codec that you install separately. A very brief Search would have given you that info.
You can access the Lagarith option (once installed) using the Microsoft AVI format, and selecting Lagarith under Video Codec in the Video tab.

FCP: What is the best quality sequence setting for HD Video with JPEGs?

Hello,
If I am editing digital still images that are 3696x2464, in order to make them into a HD video in FCP what is the best sequence setting?
There are so many HDV settings and I still don't understand the aspect ratio options...
please advise!

Hello,
where do I choose the ProResLT in the setting window? and What should be the Frame Size and Pixel Aspect Ratio? I am trying different options and having a hard time finding a setting that doesn't distort or pixel the image. Please help!
Additionally, would this setting maintain the quality even when the movie is exported and burnt onto a DVD?
many thanks.

What is the best quality encoding ?

I am buring a DVD on iDVD8. I am trying to set the encoding. There are 3 options: Best Performance, High Quality and Professional Quality. Reading the iDVD quide, it was not clear at all, what would give me the best quality.
Set aside the background encoding, and all other factors, what would give the BEST quality out of the 3 options ?
Why Apple could not say that in simple words in the guide ?

Quoting F Shippey here:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=5248366&#5248366
iDVD 6 offers 'Best Performance' (under 60 minutes on a SL disc) and 'Best Quality' encoding (under 120 minutes on a SL disc).
iDVD '08 offers 'Best Performance' (under 60 minutes on a SL disc), 'Best Quality' encoding (under 120 minutes on a SL disc) and 'Professional Quality' encoding (under 120 minutes on a SL disc).
With either version, if your content is under 60 minutes 'Best Performance' will give you the best quality!
If your content is OVER 60 minutes and under 120 minutes 'Professional Quality' in iDVD '08 should give better overall quality than 'Best Quality'

What is the best option for generating .wmv video working on Mac?

I am working on a mac. I need to generate my output in .wmv. I am exporting as .mov then using MacX converter to convert to .wmv. The quality degrades too much. What is the best way to generate .wmv?
Thanks in advance.

YOur statement is way too generic and vague. You have not provided any exact settings, version info, details about the footage etc. That asude WMV is a compressed format and wil always degrade.

What's the best app for taking a video on ipad2?

I am a tennis coach and am looking for an app for my iPad2 to do video analysis. I need to be able to video someone doing a serve and then show it to them in slow motion and be able to pause it. What's the best app for this?

Do some research into HTML5 video. Unless the user is using a modern browser with video playback capabilities, they would need to have an app to provide video playback, as well as the codecs for the video file format that you will be serving them. At this point in time, MP4 is the "clear(est)" winner of the online video formats. However not all browsers provide built-in playback. For instance, Firefox currently does not support MP4. Future Firefox builds will rely on whatever video playback the native OS provides. So coming back to your question - no, there's no real way of guaranteeing video playback on the web. You do the best you can and provide links to users where they can download the appropriate codecs and players and call it a day.
