Why is Aperture video editing limited to landscape oriented videos only?

I have iPhone videos that I've imported into Aperture 3.  Only the landscape oriented videos feature the pop-up box that allows you to scroll back and forth within a video, trim the video, edit it, etc.  Portrait oriented videos only offer play and pause.
Is this true for others?  It seems a bit ridiculous.  I've done some searching and can't find any references to this elsewhere.

Is this true for others?  It seems a bit ridiculous.
I never noticed, but for videos in "Portrait" mode I also do not see any "Edt" and Trim" options, only the "play" button:

  • HT202020 Why are certain videos that I have taken with my iPhone 4 not supported by Aperture.

    Why are certain videos that I have taken with my iPhone not supported by Aperture?  That's weird.  I expect that since both iPhone and Aperture are Apple products, file support should be seamless between the two. 
    Also, iPhone 4 does not appear as Camera Model in the metadata of the unsupported video file in Aperture .  But other videos I have taken with the same iPhone 4 appear in Aperture and the Camera Model appears correctly.  Why is that?

    Have you done some cleaning and cleared caches on your Mac? Maybe the  com.apple.xpchelper.cache file is missing. Check the folder /System/Library/Caches/
    Re: Import video to Aperture library on Mountain Lion https://discussions.apple.com/message/19304702#19304702
    If this file should be missing, you need to restore it from a backup or reinstall it by reinstalling your system.

  • Why are my video edits not being saved on Photoshop CS6?

    Why are my video edits not being saved on Photoshop CS6?
    I made a TON of edits in a video group, then duplicated that group into another file... and all my edits are gone.
    I spent hours working on this, so please let me know what the hell happened and how I can make sure it never happens again...
    also--why would CS6 come with such a devastating feature?!?! Who came up with this???

    Welcome to the forum.
    I did not see any reference to Save, Save_As, or Save_As_a_Copy. Did you use one of those?
    Good luck,

  • Why when almost completed editing a video on imovie have half the clips developed narrow screen aspect exhibiting grey band top and bottom of each clip?

    Why when almost completed editing a video on imovie, have almost half the clips developed narrow aspect - the rest is still widescreen? The faulty clips have developed grey bands top and bottom.

    Tried to duplicate the situation.
    Most probably I got it wrong but when adding in
    • a photo in 16x9 then I get a black letterbox-ing
    • an 16x9 video taken from a small compact digital Camera and in wrong frames per seconds (30fps) in a PAL (25fps) project - I get this gray banding too. Strange
    May be it has to do with matching different fps in same project - never liked to do that as quality usually suffers and it goes jumpy.
    I use JES_Deinterlacer to get all my material into the same standard first - not letting iMovie or iDVD do that conversion as that gives ME BAD RESULT.
    Someone with clear knowledge on this - Please feel free to fill in and correct.

  • HT202020 why is the video format: .mts not supportet?

    why does Aperture not support .mts videos?

    Your camera uses AVCHD, like the Panasonic, so it might. Note that you cannot drag a MTS clip into Aperture to import it, but Aperture does find the clips buried in the AVCHD file structure when importing from the SD card.
    Hopefully someone with that camera will jump in here, but if not:
    Do you have iPhoto on your system? Try that.
    Is there an Apple store nearby? Take your card to the store and try it with Aperture.
    What is your primary video editing software? If Aperture won't read your video files directly, then your video editor can likely export to a format Aperture can use.

  • Why can't i edit my project in imovie anymore??  (over 1 hr long) - is this a bug ?

    why can't i edit my project in imovie anymore??  (over 1 hr long) - is this a bug ?

    Hi
    There is a limiting factor that's easy to miss.
    • FREE SPACE on Start-Up (Mac OS) Hard Disk
    When this goes low then iMovie, Mac OS and all applications runs into problems. So to get a safe way to work (for me) I set a minimum that I try to never go lower than. (Sorry for strange sentence)
    I never let my Mac (Macintosh HD) go lower than 25GB free space. If it does - then I move away things to an external hard disk (always Mac OS Extended (hfs) formatted - as nothing else will do for VIDEO)
    Else - in iDVD Time is the limiting factor. (iMovie - I never run into any - my monster Vacation epos is >>6 hours)
    iDVD 08, 09 & 11 has three levels of qualities. (version 7.0.1, 7,0.4 & 7.1.1) and iDVD 6 has the two last ones
    • Professional Quality
    (movies + menus up to 120 min.) - BEST (but not always for short movies e.g. up to 45 minutes in total)
    • Best Performances
    (movies + menus less than 60 min.) - High quality on final DVD (Can be best for short movies)
    • High Quality (in iDVD08 or 09) / Best Quality (in iDVD6)
    (movies + menus up to 120 min.) - slightly lower quality than above
    Menu can take 15 minutes or even more - I use a very simple one with no audio or animation like ”Brushed Metal” in old Themes.
    About double on DL DVDs.

  • Export from Aperture to edit in Windows Live Photo Gallery

    Hi.
    I'm hoping to work collaboratively with a colleague, in a scenario where I take & edit photos, then pass them over for a possible final touch up before being forwarded to clients.
    I use Mac OSX 10.6 and Aperture. He uses Windows Vista and Windows Live Photo Gallery.
    The problem we've come up against is this: he is unable to edit the image I've exported from Aperture. I'm exporting as .JPG, and he's able to read them ok - i.e. load it into Windows Live Photo Gallery, but not alter the image.
    Does anyone have a similar workflow, exporting from Aperture, then editing in Windows Live Photo Gallery?
    Thanks in advance,
    PB

    Hi Frank.
    Thanks for the response.
    Agreed, the pertinent question is why can't my colleague edit the JPG exported by Aperture. It's probably also worth pointing out, the same problem occurs with JPGs exported from iPhoto.
    The Windows software usually plays nicely with JPGs by all acounts, just not the ones I send - which I do via eMail or my public space on Mobile Me incidently.
    So, another key question is: all settings being equal (color profile, quality, etc.) are the JPGs as produced by iPhoto and Aperture indistinguishable from those produced by other apps on other platforms - i.e. does the use of JPG enforce a common standard?
    If that is the case, I suspect ours might be a permissions issue.
    According to the Microsoft support page on editing in Windows Live Photo Gallery, the inability to edit a picture is commonly caused by unsupported file type, or read-only attribute set on the file.
    Unfortunately, he and I are not in the same place, and he's not particularly au-fait with this type of problem solving. Hence, before involving him, I'd like to know:
    1. it's possible (i.e. someone else does it), and,
    2. what's involved (at my end and/or his).
    Thanks again,
    PB

  • Why is the Video clip jumpy?

    Why is the Video clip jumpy? I have just installed Premiere Elements 12 in a brand new computer:
    Acer Aspire V5
    CPU AMD Dual Core Processor a-4 APU with Radeon (TM HD Graphics 1.0 GHz)
    4GB DDR3 memory
    500 GB HDD
    Windows 8.1
    The file types are AVI, AVCHD, and MOV files

    northgal
    Lots of ways to go on this. But, I think starting with a definition of the source media and how you are setting up the project is going to be the path to success. So, we need to zero in on questions/answers related to what I wrote earlier
    The properties of the source media need expanding up beyond "file types are AVI, AVCHD, and MOV.
    a. What are the video and audio compression of the files with the .avi file extension and what is the frame size, frame rate, interlaced or progressive, pixel aspect ratio?
    b. What is the file extension for the file with the AVCHD video compression. Again, what is the frame size, frame rate, interlaced or progressive, pixel aspect ratio?
    c. What are the video and audio compression of the files with the .mov file extension and what is the frame size, frame rate, interlaced or progressive, pixel aspect ratio?
    You asked how to go about that. The best way is to run each of the file types through a video properties read out program such as MediaInfo
    http://mediaarea.net/en/MediaInfo
    Latest versions of that MediaInfo have been problematic in that you need to be on guard for any unwanted toolbars and installed "extra" programs (bloatware).
    OR
    We would not necessarily get more information, but we would get enough to put us in a good position, if we run the types through gspot utility (good for codec and basic information)...less bloatware concerns
    http://www.headbands.com/gspot/
    The dialog that you would get from gspot would look like
    Once we know the video and audio codecs, frame size, frames rates, interlaced or progressive frame rates, etc. that we are dealing with, we on a good course to set up the project settings to match those properties, independant of whatever export choices we have in mind. That we will address later after a successful import and edit.
    OR
    A third choice for getting at this information is less productive but can be a good last resort...knowing the brand/model/recording settings of the camera from which these files came.
    Please review and then let us know if you can gather the file properties information details requested.
    We will be watching for your results.
    Thank you.

  • How do I rotate Aperture videos with iMovie ?

    Hi;
    I have some videos stored inside the Aperture library, which are flipped 90 degrees. When I right click on the video I want to rotate, I have the contextual menu wich says ... Modify with iMovie... (this is actually the translation since I use french version of Aperture).
    Clicking on it open iMovie, then I find the video I want to rotate (quite easy..), I do it.
    and THEN ?
    How do I find back into Aperture the edited video ? Should I re-import it ?
    Thanks a lot for help

    Well, it seems I have no choice. I  already tried the export from iMovie to desktop, then back to Aperture and it worked fine. It is just not very convenient. (I use small video clips of golf swings, so I have sometimes to rotate 20 or mode videos).
    To answer to Kirby, I tried also to make some minor changes instead of just rotating the video. Didn't work anyway.
    My initial motivation was that I have seen this ...edit with iMovie.. in the contextual menu of Aperture; I expected a true user-friendly command, but it wasn't.
    Thank you anyway to all the contributors. May be in a next release?

  • IOS 8 all videos only play in landscape view

    TV Shows, Movies and even Music Videos only play in Landscape view, not Portrait.  Is this everyone's experience?

    The Apple iOS 8 Preview site used to have the wording quoted below (still viewable in the Google search preview) but as noted in http://www.macrumors.com/2014/09/12/apple-demotes-icloud-photo-library-beta/, it has been delayed
    Every photo, every edit, every album now lives in your iCloud Photo Library, easily viewable and consistent on all your iOS devices. Automatically.

  • Imovie hangs on opening at Aperture videos.

    I am still using iMovie 9.09 because the new version  (10) does not sort videos by date.  It hangs on opening however every time it gets to aperture videos regardless of the fact that I don't have any in there.  It also won't even let me force quit! Help!!

    Yeah Me too. However I got there in a strange way. I was recording one more(thin mint) voice over and when I finished ( 6 seconds) the little beach ball from **** came on and kept kicking sand in my face for 4 hours before i realized i got eaten by the imovie shark.
    I called the genious bar to set up an appointment and basically found no geniuses willing to belly up to the bar ( 2 stores). I then called appl care and what it finally came down to is messing around inside the package files eliminating one additional event at a time and seeing if i can even get imovie to open up that project again.
    One thing Imovie should have that I have commended Microsoft on for years is the "backup to here every 5 minutes". What would be better is back up rotationally up to 20 copies. At any rate I am stuck with the beach ball as booby prize. THat one project will not open up.
    Does anyone havea succinct and comprehensive understanding of the way imovie projects are structured on disk? I am working now at the level of opening up the project properties list and poking around the arcane maundering in there ensuring all of the relevant pieces are pointing to files that exist. Other than nothing -- Apple has been of little help in doing the following
    1 Telling me which files i can safely delete and which should regenerate from first causes
    2 Telling me what all the various files do and what they should look like ( yeah i know its an apple just poke the do what i mean button)
    3 Explaining to me why I can see every clip that goes into that movie, but why I movie wont let me frankenstein it together with some kind of imovie property editor.
    4 Concisely providing a layout and explanation of the structure of an imovie project ( Oh yeah i remember - Those arent the files im looking for -- move along ...)

  • Does Aperture import movies? If so, can I use Aperture to edit them?

    iPhoto allowed me to organize video as well as photos. Does Aperture have that capability? If so, can I also use Aperture to edit videos? If not, does that editing have to occur in iMovie?

    See  Aperture 3: About Video and Audio formats in Aperture but notice the top of the document it says this is an example of some supported formats so if your's isn't listed it still Aperture still might import it.

    Sounds like a problem between your external DVD player & your TV.  Start w/the basic & easiest.  Use a drive cleaner on your external DVD player.
