What video format are imovie videos?

I am submitting an application video to something and it has to be either mpg, mpeg, flv, avi, mp4, wmv, mov, 3gp, or m4v. If iMovie isn't in one of those formats, can I change it to one of them? Any/All help is appreciated!

You do understand that all of these formats are just wrappers for video codec?  You want to make sure you know the resolution, bit rate, and underlying video codec that you will need to use to submit your video.  iMovie is most efficient when editing videos that are Quicktime files with the Apple Intermediate codec.  If you can export the movie out of iMovie as an Apple Intermediate Codec Quicktime file, you will be able to bring it into the Quicktime Player and export it to m4v or mp4.  You may need to experiment with the settings in the Quicktime Player to get the quality you want.

  • What video formats are compatible in DVDSP??

    I have DVD Studio Pro 4 and I need to know what video formats are compatible in the program? I made an .m2v file but its too large to fit even on a DL DVD so I need to drop the .m2v file into Mpegstreamclip and convert it to something else and decrease the size so then I can drop it back into DVDSP and burn it. Any help with this? What are formats supported in DVDSP? Or, is there another way around my problem (too big of a file)?? Thanks!

    Can you make the audio AC3? That may put you under.
    Also keep in mind that if the 2 hour 2 minute movie is that large in file size, it means it probably was encoded at a high rate which can cause issues (you can try to re-encode the m2v in a couple of ways if needed)
    As to the story issues it sounds like you made a story accidently. Take a look here

  • Can Quicktime Pro convert .mkv video formats to mp4 video formats

    I purchased Quicktime Pro believing it could convert .mkv video formats to MP4 video formats, however, the resulting output file is just a 60kb file from an original 971,936 kb file.
    I registered the key as given to me in the purchase receipt email, I used Export to MRP, I selected the input .mkv file. All seemed to be OK until it ended creating the short 60kb file.
    Suggestions please.

    As indicated on the Apple web site, keying the QT Player for "Pro" use merely unlocks editing and conversion features built into the app but not available without the key. It does not add any new file type or codec support beyond that for which the QT Player is already configured on your platform.
    I registered the key as given to me in the purchase receipt email, I used Export to MRP, I selected the input .mkv file. All seemed to be OK until it ended creating the short 60kb file.
    An MKV file will convert only if you have support for both the MKV file container (which is not natively QT compatible) and codecs to handle the specific codecs contained in the MKV file container if available for QT use.
    Suggestions please.
    I do not normally use MKV files on a daily basis and so, on those occasions when I do need to use them as a source for conversions to mobile devices, I use the free HandBrake application. As I see it, you can either try to add the missing support needed to use QT 7 Pro or you could download HandBrake for iTunes managed/mobile device files or use FFmpeg (on which HandBrake is based) for more general target conversions. As a non-PC user, I am assuming here that the Windows versions of both the HandBrake and FFmpeg apps have the same features as are available in the Mac versions of these apps.

  • What video formats can iMovie edit?

    I was wondering what video formats iMovie can edit? Such as mpeg 2, mpeg 4, etc...
    the specific reason I'm asing is that I'm considering having some vhs tapes converted to DVD's, which I'm assuming would convert them to mpeg 2...and was wondering if they would be editable in iMovie?

    Hi Vapor_action:
    Stop!
    Seriously-you will be MUCH better off if you have them convert them to DV tape for import to iMovie. DVD uses a different compression and it is a real pain to get them into iMovie. In fact, it is easier to get the VHS to iMovie than DVD in my opinion.

    you can drag'n drop all kind of stuff into iMovie (mp3, ogg. wma, aac) - the underlying Quicktme engine will do its best to convert the data into something useful. in most cases, it works, in many not.
    esp. when the sampling frequency isn't 'video friendly' (=not 48kHuz or its even divisors) people notice frequently synch problems.
    Bengt mentioned best practice: aiff/48kHz
    24bit is nice, but the delivery codecs, iMovie supports, don't list it.
    keep in mind: iM is a 15$ consumer toy tool.
    24bit is something from professional studios.-
    and again - aside theatrical audio delivery as THX, 24bit is no 'video format'.-

  • What file formats are supported on a Mac/Quicktime?

    I just need to know what kind of file formats are supported on a mac, or for quicktime on a mac computer. Im trying to make a video from a windows machine work on a mac, but don't know what format to save it in. If anyone could help me out, that would be great!

    Oh, I was not discounting it's utility for your general 10.4.7 (and higher) users. I can think of several situations where it'd be most advantageous. If the user does have 10.4.7 and has permissions to install Perian, then it's near the top of the list of "things nice to have."
    I was just saying that it's generally a good idea to work out everything on the sending end so that all the recipient has to do is open and enjoy. Most of us have had stuff converted to .WMV so that Windows users wouldn't NEED to install QuickTime to see our video, it's the same kind of thinking.

  • What disc formats are supported by Remote Disc

    We just purchased a Macbook Air. We have a Dell PC with Windows XP SP2 that we set up for remote disc sharing (using the most recent version of the Windows remote sharing software). Much to my surprise, when I put the OS X disc into that system, it was immediately available on the Air. I put a Windows application disc into the drive and it was also visible and could be searched on the Air. However, when I put CDs that I had created myself on the Dell, they were completely invisible to the Air. These were created with Roxio DLA, and I had already "closed" them to make them readable by other systems (I can read them on a Dell notebook PC). No copy protection on those. I realize that I could copy the contents of CDs onto the target PC or onto thumb drives and access them. That is an additional and inconvenient step.
    Does anyone have similar experience or know a way to solve this problem?
