What's with the multiple "-av" when exporting to QuickTime?

I'm a little frustrated... upgraded to Studio 2, got a new Mac... now everything I export comes in the form of several "-av" files when it used to be 1 big file. I'm not sure what changed, but it's annoying the **** out of me. Any suggestions?

Only thing I can think of...

I think it only matters for the boot drive but it may make a difference

What's with the poor quality when exporting a presentation to iDVD

When I exported I choose high resolution preference. The presentation ran perfectly in Keynote, but when I exported it to iDVD it looked horrible- like low res- the same when I burned it onto a DVD just as a test. Also, when I tried another route- exporting to Powerpoint it saved the file as .pps? What is that? None of my others have done that.

I have iDVD 6 and I exported it - high quality to iDVD. Is that what you mean by iDVD feature?
I read on this discussion something about the slide resolution. I discovered when I first set up the show my resolution was 800x600 and I haven't found a way to change it. I am ready to begin again and set my slide res to the maximum and copy, paste, and resize all my text to fit- then export again. LOTS OF WORK! but I am not sure how else I can resolve this.

Having problems with audio and video when exporting to quicktime

I've exported a couple of keynote presentations to Quicktime and uploaded to youtube with no problems. I've now added a motion background in my intro, which looks great in keynote, but, it would appear that it causes problems. The mov file does play the animation, but, not as it was recorded, the audio then becomes out of sync and the advance on slides is all over the place with some not appearing. Is this a common problem? I am exporting at best quality and 1280 x 720, leaving all other settings as preset. I suspect that if I drop the background altogether it will work, but, it looks so great in keynote that'd be a shame. Any tips?

I'm confused with the aspect ratio when I crop them i know I have to lock the aspect but should I keep it on Original? Also i'm wondering when it comes to export them what size should I be placing if I want to print all sizes.
The crop aspect lock only comes into play while you are actively resizing the crop boundary. LR always works in a freehand manner, except that if the ratio is locked, adjusting the crop frame is allowed to alter its size and location and angle - but not its shape. If the ratio is not locked, you will be changing the crop shape freely if/when you drag the corner or edge handles around. The rest of the time, the lock makes no difference; and it is just as possible BTW to lock a random freehand aspect ratio, as it is to lock one of the standard preset ones.
If you are uploading an exported copy for printing, you could simply upload a JPG made at the original resolution (as cropped for composition and angle) - that is, unchecking the whole resizing section of the Export dialog - and give the printer instructions as to how large the various prints are to be. Or I suppose, you could resize to the largest of the sizes that you require, but you will then need to negotiate a pixels-per-inch "resolution" setting that will be appropriate - since, when resizing to a page size, this figure governs the pixel content of the file produced.
I would suggest that in the case of an export without resizing, where a generous quantity of pixels are included for the sorts of page sizes mentioned, you will likely not see any discernible printed benefit from setting the highest JPG quality setting for your export, but will be fine with around quality 6 to 8 - which brings the file sizes down significantly. Most often, printing services will presume that you have selected sRGB colourspace for your export, unless something different has been pre-agreed.

Trouble with 2nd audio track when exporting to Quicktime - please help!

Ok - I've made my DV movie in IMovie - all ok. When I export to Quicktime the second audio track (an mp3 imported from iTune) jumps up in volume unexpectedly but always in the same place. There is no such jump in the original and I haven't put in any nodes to boost the volume etc.
Any ideas guys??
Thanks

Hello,
Further reading and search in this forum make me think I was right : it seems to be an iMovie 6 bug.

What's with the "RED FLASHES" when I scroll ?

Using Aurora, when I'm on any web page (except Firefox !) and use the scroll wheel on my mouse, I get a RED FLASH every time I start to scroll. This is potentially dangerous as I have a seizure disorder that can be triggered by light flashes (when coupled with
other stimuli).
The Firefox page scrolls without the flashes - what's up ?

Why does iPhoto (9.0/11) not retain the Event name when exporting more than one event? (using File - Export - Album name with number).

Why does iPhoto (9.0/11) not retain the Event name when exporting more than one event? (using File -> Export -> Album name with number).
Exporting a single Event retains the Event name which is what I'd expect. But highlighting more than one event and exporting it renames the images to Events 001.JPG, Event 002.JPG etc.
I was recently on holidays and had all my events nicely split on Dad's computer but when I went to export it I couldn't retain any of this information. Now I have to replicate this all again on my computer.
It wasn't possible to export the entire library as the external drive was fat32 format an I didn't want all of it. It would be nice to export a bunch of events to someone and have it retain the name.
Does anyone have a work around or will this be fixed at some point by Apple?

Using the battery level meter in this manner is comparable to using your car's fuel gauge to calculate miles per gallon. The only thing that matters is the total amount of operating time from full charge to auto-shutdown.
Use the wall-mount charger that came with the iPad and charge overnight. Do NOT use an iPod/iPhone charger. Do NOT use a computer's USB port. Then, operate it normally until auto shut-down (ignore any low level alerts that may appear). An irony is that doing that test to determine the total operating time is also the procedure necessary to calibrate the battery level meter.
I'm not claiming that you do not have a problem. I am stating, however, that we don't yet know. If the above test does, in fact, indicate a problem, read this.
Also, according to Apple:
Use Your iPad Regularly
For proper reporting of the battery’s state of charge, be sure to go through at least one charge cycle per month (charging the battery to 100% and then completely running it down).
Elsewhere, Apple elaborates and explains that two half-discharges (or four quarter-discharges, etc.) equals one full discharge.

Trax and kirt are correct. I'm pretty good with technology, being an engineer and all, and I can tell you for a fact that this 'swoosh' sound (triggered by a successfully sent SMS) can NOT be disabled from ANY menu in iOS 5. The ONLY way to disable it is to flip the silent switch on the left hand side of the phone. This is extremely annoying for some people (like trax, kirt, and myself). For what we pay for Apple products and, in particular, this phone, we simply didn't expect to have to deal with such annoyances. That's why we're Mac users. Please fix this bug.
I feel like I shouldn't have to say this but it bears repeating: turning off message sounds from the 'sounds' menu does not fix his problem. It still emits the swoosh noise. Whoever suggested this clearly didn't try it because it obviously doesn't work. Who posts a solution to a problem without knowing for a fact that their solution is correct? I find that response condescending because he writer is assuming we're not smart enough to have tried it. In reality, it's vice versa.

How can I remove my name from being associated with the GB file I export?

I am using Garage Band '11, 6.0.5.
I am editing an audio recording for a friend.
When I exported the edited recording, it had my name associated with the file as the artist, album, etc.
I searched and found "My info" (in "Preferences") and deleted my information from ALL name, album, artist fields, but it still exported the file with my name as the artist (but it did not list it as from my album this time)?
Does anyone know how/where/what I need to do to remove all references of my name associated with this file I'm editing?
And also, can I change who is associated with a GB file, from file to file (i.e. if editing my audio, use my name & info, if editing for a friend or colleague, theirs? or is the name associated with my GB account universally embedded into every file, no matter if I want it to be mine or not)?
Thank you for your support!
Joe

When I exported the edited recording, it had my name associated with the file as the artist, album, etc.
The problem is, that this information is stored with the GarageBand project, when you first create the project. You have to edit the Preferences, before you create the project.
If the project already exists, you can change this option by turning the project into a podcast. Add a Podcast track (Track menu, Show Podcast Track), select the podcast track, and open the Info panel. Then edit the artist field in the Info panel, before you save the song to disk.
(added: I saw the workaround with the Podcast track first in a post by Edgar).

Having troubles with aspect and size when exporting to CD

I would like to export my pics to a CD so i can send them out to be printed in a lab. I'm confused with the aspect ratio when I crop them i know I have to lock the aspect but should I keep it on Original? Also i'm wondering when it comes to export them what size should I be placing if I want to print all sizes. like some 8x10 and some 4x6 and so on. I'm working with Lightroom 3. Thanks in advance : )

The crop aspect lock only comes into play while you are actively resizing the crop boundary. LR always works in a freehand manner, except that if the ratio is locked, adjusting the crop frame is allowed to alter its size and location and angle - but not its shape. If the ratio is not locked, you will be changing the crop shape freely if/when you drag the corner or edge handles around. The rest of the time, the lock makes no difference; and it is just as possible BTW to lock a random freehand aspect ratio, as it is to lock one of the standard preset ones.
If you are uploading an exported copy for printing, you could simply upload a JPG made at the original resolution (as cropped for composition and angle) - that is, unchecking the whole resizing section of the Export dialog - and give the printer instructions as to how large the various prints are to be. Or I suppose, you could resize to the largest of the sizes that you require, but you will then need to negotiate a pixels-per-inch "resolution" setting that will be appropriate - since, when resizing to a page size, this figure governs the pixel content of the file produced.
I would suggest that in the case of an export without resizing, where a generous quantity of pixels are included for the sorts of page sizes mentioned, you will likely not see any discernible printed benefit from setting the highest JPG quality setting for your export, but will be fine with around quality 6 to 8 - which brings the file sizes down significantly. Most often, printing services will presume that you have selected sRGB colourspace for your export, unless something different has been pre-agreed.

Jittery motion with stills when exported to Quicktime

I've been producing photographic AVs with FCE for a few years now and I've run into a problem with the latest version (3.5).
Any time I use keyframes to do a Ken Burns effect it gets all jittery when exported to Quicktime. Everything plays back fine within FCE - it's only when exported that the problem occurs. The problem didn't exist (for me) with version 3. It seems to be exacerbated by adding a transition but it happens even when there's no transition.
Has anyone experienced this or have any idea what I might be able to do to remedy it.

That's what you did when you switched the field
dominance to none, but you see you didn't see any
effect when you did that.
No, none at all.
I have a fairly major show on Friday night (it's Wednesday pm here now) so I'm thinking I might spend the night redoing it in iMovie. I'm disappointed because I've been doing them in FCE for a few years now and this is the first time I've seen a problem. The only thing which has changed is the jump from 3 to 3.5.
Many thanks for your suggestions.

Multiple problems when exporting 16:9 HDV using Quicktime Conversion

Hello,
I am trying to export a 41-minute long video so that I can post it online. It is in 16:9 HDV Widescreen format, and the computer I am using is an iMac G5 2.1Ghz PowerPC with 2.5GB of RAM. I've been having the following issues so far:
1. It doesn't export the entire video when exporting to WMV. It stops after only a few minutes of exporting, and then when I check it to see how it came out, only the first few minutes of my video are there.
2. When exporting using Quicktime Conversion to being an actual Quicktime file (.mov), it starts but then it stops at 7% and the "Estimated Time" increases from "about 2 minutes", to "about 5 hours"...and then THAT increases a few minutes later to "about 7 hours". I've already increased my memory to 2.5GB (which unfortunately is the most amount that my computer can fit).
3. So far, for .mov, .divx, .wmv, .m4v, and .mp4, I've been having a lot of trouble trying to figure out the exact settings that I should be using for 16:9 widescreen (dimensions, formats, etc). A lot of times, the video has become 4:3, with the video itself stretched from top to bottom (it looks very weird like that).
Any ideas on what I should do?
Thanks.

Hi,
I have the same problem and I can't believe Apple did not think about that. Each time I'm doing a 16:9 movie, it doesn't work with QuickTime conversion.
Read this site, it might help you. I'm gonna try the solution they're talking about.
