Why is Shake Exporting to QuickTime Only?

Hi.
Despite the list of available formats for exporting from Shake, Quicktime is the only format which works. The other options such as Photoshop and jpg are creating a black icon for a file folder labeled as "exec". What settings need to be changed for access to all options for export?
Thank you.

Wonderful! I never thought of providing an extension to file names, thinking Shake would have been more intuitive than that. Extensions are not needed when exporting files to Quick Time. Nevertheless, it works which is the important point.
Thank you.

  • Exporting using quicktime only gives me stills

    Hi,
    I'm using FCP 4.5, and have been using it for a couple of years. This afternoon I was batch exporting a bunch of short videos, and when I viewed the results, they were all the correct length, but only a still image.
    When I did the same operation yesterday, it worked properly. And when I tried to re-export things I'd previously exported properly, I'm only getting stills!
    What gives? I haven't changed anything, nor have I installed updates.
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Thanks for the reply. I'm working with several source formats (DV, .mov, and others). They all seem to be suffering the same thing.
    Our use of FCP may be slightly uncommon. We do speech research, and we usually need to generate many very short clips out of a longer one, so I segment a video, 'make independent clip', move to the asset pane, and re-name as appropriate. When I've segemented everything, I can export or batch export directly out of the asset pane (rather than the sequence). Up until very recently, this has been easily done.
    I've done a little more experimenting now. Quicktime conversion works on the sequence, but not on the clips in the asset pane. And file/export/quicktime movie (as opposed to quicktime conversion) works from the asset pane. But I'm still stumped - I can't do what I need to do.
    One more detail - it's possible that iTunes was updated around the time that this snafu started occurring.

  • Exporting Keynote to  quicktime only 1 song on my playlist plays

    When I tried exporting into quicktime only the first song on my playlist played with my presentation. Any ideas?

    I just posted this on another similar inquiry. THis may help. I posed a similar question so check the thread "Bottom line...etc." If you follow the guidelines below it should work. The final result is one QT movie with all slides and music. The product was so much nicer than the iPhoto slide shows (although they are OK too. (I don't know about the video in the Keynote might work as described in the initial post here.)
    Here is what the final answer was, at least for my situation:
    "YESSSS!!! Even after meeting with 4 Geniuses and 1 Creative the answer was still a definite bottom line, "Maybe." Until, I finally realized that the one setting that I was not using correctly was in the Export> QT> Playback. I had been using "Manual" and not using the "Fixed Timing" out of fear that it would change the custom settings that I had on each slide. However, that is not the case. The settings on each slide remain the same even though in this option there are settings for slide duration and build duration. I do not know what those options do but the bottom line is I now can Export to QT and then import to iDVD with both sound and video as one file and they work fine both as an isolated QT file as well as a QT/Slideshow in iDVD. Thanks for the help from all the contributors both recently and quite awhile ago when I first faced this challenge.
    Peace,

  • I am using FC Express HD, and for some reason, when I export a Quicktime movie, the final movie will only play audio, and the video is black.  I only get the actual video if I export as self contained, or if I exportusing quicktime conversion. Why?

  • Why does quicktime only export audio

    Why does Quicktime only export audio when exporting .mov files? I used to do it all the time with this same version. Now it doesn't work. I see a lot of other posts asking the same question and no answers.

    MOV files are audio and/or video content wrapped in an MOV file container. The first step in solving your problem would be to determine what codec components were used to create the source files and then determine if they are still supported by you current system configutation and/or conversion work flow.

    Good to hear that you've had some success with the import.
    I tried 3 times to do it before I finally changed it to H.264, and it worked on the first try.  The quality of the compression was terrible with those settings compared to my standard settings, but I'm just glad it worked.
    Rather than Share>Export using QuickTime and then choosing your own settings for H.264, you may get a better result if you simply use the Share>Export Movie option. Alternatively, use the Share>Media Browser option (as I mentioned in my earlier post). You will be presented with a range of sizes to choose from. Depending on your target, it's usually best to select the highest size available, such as Large, HD 720p or HD 1080p. However, for producing a DVD it's best to not go beyond the HD 720p size, as the DVD will be downscaled during encoding to Standard Definition in the appropriate size for either PAL or NTSC.
    In my experience, both these options (Export Movie or Media Browser) produce a video file of excellent quality. The files will be in H.264 format and will have the file extension .mov or .m4v depending on the size of the export. I'm assuming that your camera records HD video in AVCHD format.
    These files work well with iDVD (or other DVD authoring programs). The export process for the presets is optimised by Apple to produce high quality video files at a reasonable file size. So, selecting a preset may give you a much better result. Choosing your own H.264 settings when using the "Export using QuickTime" method could be why "the compression was terrible". You may have selected a data (bit) rate that was too low. There is always a trade-off between quality and file size when compressing video.
    So, to summarise, try one of the Apple presets using either Share>Export Movie or Share>Media Browser.

  • Enough Disk Space Exporting to Quicktime once...now NOT.  Why?

    Attempted to export my video to Quicktime...and the first time no problem except that when I was working with iDVD, saw that I had titled my chapter markers too large as they were running into each other and overlapping. So, I went back over my video project...edited and changed my chapters to single words...and when I tried to export to Quicktime again about 30 some minutes into the process the message came to screen saying I did not have enough disk space.
    So...I saved my video to an external drive as a back up (to be safe)...then reopened the original video project file from my system's hard drive saved in my "Movies."
    Using the hard drive icon on my desktop I then deleted two files saved there, which included a copy I had made as well...(by deleting, thinking I'd make available perhaps disk space). I then re-saved my project with a new name to my system so that the project was saved only once. Note- a couple weeks ago in preparing for this project, I transferred whatever other completed saved movie projects, Quicktimes and so forth to my external drive, and deleted existing files on my system's hard drive. I have therefore only one other three minute video project and Quicktime in my "Movies" folder.
    Okay...so I then emptied my trash (thinking that might open disk space) ...and once more tried to export this video to Quicktime. Again, the message not enough disk space came up.
    Again, remember...the FIRST time I attempted to export the project to Quicktime it DID succeed to go thru the entire process, and showed up in my media content of iDVD. I also had exported it at the higher Quality setting in "Safe" mode.
    Thus I presume my original video fell within the allotted disk space or it wouldn't have made it to iDVD to begin with. Why do you suppose after making my edits to chapter titles, now...there is supposedly not enough disk space when exporting?
    thanks

    I realize I may have erred (not knowing 'til reading in the manual later...that not setting a high enough disk space size at the time of capture may cause this problem). I may I suppose have to redo the entire video, and figure out how settings are supposed to be changed.
    Let's say I was a dummy and didn't first assign disk space to the project like I should have...(something I'll have to learn how to do) ...I would still like to know why the entire process first succeeded to export to Quicktime at my higher quality settings? Why DID it export...why DID it work, and not now?
    Why DID it first have enough disk space apparently such that working in iDVD the completed video was available...but I would have had to burn it with problems in chapter titles.
    I know disk space was unaffected by chapter markers. I fixed chapter markers because in iDVD they were too long and overlapped. It wasn't until AFTER that fix trying to export again...the video suddenly was out of disk space.
    My video is 90 minutes in length. A teaching instructional video. Where do I locate size and available space on my drive? Isn't that shown at the start of making the video? I have looked.
    The drive is my internal drive of my Mac 10.4.3 an intel duo core...2 GB

  • Export in QuickTime with "Only Hyperlink"

    Hallo! I've a problem! When export in QuickTime from KeyNote, setting "Only hyperlink", the keys with the
    action back do not only work while next it works. This happens even if inserts the numeration of the page. Can you help me??!!! Thank you very much!

    OK, I may have found the source of the problem: when i tried to play the movie file that I had inserted in Keynote on my PC, Quicktime asked for a codec. In Movie Inspector, I saw that the video was encoded in FLV1...
    Any idea where I can get this codec for QT WIndows (I'm searching for it and haven't found it yet)

  • Why is EXPORT to Quicktime "greyed" out? GB3?

    Wondering why export to quicktime is greyed out.
    In addition, is there anyway to export tracks individually?
    Thank you!

    FWIW, I know the work around, export to iTUNES, drag to desktop (if preferences are set up right, in iTUNES) it will be a AIFF file.
    Just want to know why quicktime is greyed out unless of course it needs video or images in order to work as export to quicktime!
    thanks!

  • Export to quicktime best (and only) way to go?

    I have a 160 gb Apple TV. I use a Canon HG 10 1080 X 1440 AVCHD. In FCE the only good way to export (that I've found) is export using quicktime. But it takes only about 90 or seconds or less of video exported to consume one gigabyte of disk space-- an Apple TV can only accommodate perhaps 2 or three hours of FCE exported video plus all the other stuff I've got on my Apple TV.
    In FCE I have tried compressing to high definition MP 4, playing with the various settings, but it doesn't seem to come close to export using quicktime. I've incrementally tweaked every setting and lots of combinations of settings and nothing seems to come close to straight quicktime.
    So I guess the best (and only good way?) way to export hd video from FCE is with straight quicktime?
    Are there any media players with gigabyte hard drives that can play .mov files? I don't think there is adequate room on Apple TV-- the hard drive is way way too small. You can't keep more than a couple hours of hd videos there.

    The reason you can tell the difference between Quicktime and Quicktime Conversion is, as I've said before, because Quicktime Conversion compresses the video whereas Quicktime Movie leaves it uncompressed.
    FCE is a single program, FCS is a whole suite of programs that include Final Cut Pro for editing, Color for color correction and such, Motion for motion graphics, Soundtrack Pro for specialized audio editing, DVD Studio Pro for DVD authoring, and Compressor for compressing. I believe what you mean when you ask about exporting is whether the compression is different in Final Cut Studio. Because FCP can export to Compressor for advanced options of compressing, there are many more ways to export than in FCE.

    When I export fla as .mov, QuickTime only plays first 15 seconds. How can I make it play the whole file?

    Try Deleting it from your device, then download again from purchase history.

  • Quicktime export plays on only some computers

    I exported a small iMovie file to Quicktime and emailed it to various people. These are the results:

    Does iMovie export to Quicktime 7? Shouldn't any computer (esp. the G3 iMac)be able to play it without Quicktime 7?

    Hi Tarkin:
    QuickTime 7 performance on G3 and G4 systems: (from the HD Gallery page)
    The advanced H.264 codec makes it possible for QuickTime 7 to play back High Definition video on a personal computer without additional hardware required. However, you'll still need a G5 system to display so much media.
    For 1280x720 (720p) video at 24-30 frames per second:
    1.8 GHz PowerMac G5 or faster Macintosh computer
    At least 256 MB of RAM
    64 MB or greater video card
    For 1920x1080 (1080p) video at 24-30 frames per second:
    Dual 2.0 GHz PowerMac G5 or faster Macintosh computer
    At least 512 MB of RAM
    128 MB or greater video card
    I doubt the graphics card is powerful enough in the G3.

  • Why Can't I Export to Quicktime from Garageband?

    Has anyone else experienced this or would know how to fix it...
    I created a .mov file from Keynote and brought it into Garageband as a Video Track to sync the music to the Keynote presentation. Now I'm ready to Export to Quicktime from Garageband. When I choose the Export command from the 'Share' menu in Garageband, it runs through two dialog boxes - first "Creating Mixdown" and then "Converting..." - after the second dialog box disappears no Quicktime file is created.
    I have tried several things to remedy this, but have had no luck - such as updating to Garageband 3.0.1, running Disk Utility, restarting the computer. I also made sure to check the Preferences in Garageband before exporting.
    Can anyone tell me how I can get it to export?
    Also, the final Garageband file size is approximately 180MB and the presentation runs approximately 8 minutes. The final file will need to be 'full quality', as it will be shown from a projector at a meeting.
      Mac OS X (10.3.9)   Keynote v3.0.0; Garageband v3.0.1; Dual 1GHz G4; 1.5GB SDRAM

    Which export did you use?
    Try going into prefs->export, enable the export to disk option.
    Than in the Share menu choose export to disk.
    Then do a search on the name of your song (in the Finder) and see if it shows up.

  • Export to Quicktime Movie rerendering. Why?

    Hi
    I have a DV project edited in FCP 5.11 which is all completely rendered. It's actually made up of a number of sequences joined end to end each of which is rendered before rendering the final 'top' sequence. There are some heavily rendered motion still sections in there, so I don't really want to render them again.
    However when I Export to Quicktime Movie, using the current settings, ie not making a self-contained movie, it takes hours to render and looks like it is rerendering everything I painstakingly made sure was rendered to full quality already. Is there anything I can do to stop it doing this? (I am doing this to make things much easier for Compressor, rendering the whole project as a referenced movie.)
    Thanks for your attention.

    Just checking that you are, in fact, leaving the menu as Current Settings... and not changing it to match the settings of your timeline...
    Also, you say you are not making a self contained movie - you've left that unchecked? Are you sure you don't have any gray realtime bars over the top of your clips - resize, dissolve, etc don't require rendering until export. You need to check the Render All menu (opt-r) under Sequence has everything checked...
