Why no more clips and just one big .mov file?

I had been working in iMovie and iDVD 4 for some time up until present when I upgraded to iLife 6. One of the things I like about ver. 4 was that the whole movie was saved as a file but there were also the individual clips saved as well. I could use these clips when creating my iDVD project. Now I see that those clips are gone and there's just one big .mov file to drop into my iDVD themes. Why did they do this??? Is there some benefit to this that I'm not understanding? Maybe I don't have something set correctly in the prefs.? Is there anyway around this so that I have control over what part of a movie gets dropped into my iDVD themes?

Thank you so much, Matt. That did the trick. I would've never thought of that. I was beginning to figure that the clips just had to be somewhere else that wasn't obvious to me. I couldn't believe that they would do away with that. Thanks again!

Hi Stephen, thanx...
Yes, we are talking about FCP X...this is the thing:
I worked on a project a few days ago and went to share - export movie.
Today, i opened the FCP again, to make some changes, and when i enter to the project, it shows me as one big clip.....i dont see it says compound clip....and i tried anyways pressing break appart clips...but nothing....could it be that i made it compound before exporting it..? if so how can i recover the un-compound version >?
I tried to import the saved .mov file, but it opens the same....as one long clip...

Why can't I send just one song off of an album as a gift?

iPad 2, iOS 7.0.4

You'll need to use iTunes on your computer to be able to send a single track. From an iOS device you can only gift entire albums.

I have an ipad 2 and just rented a movie. When I try to load the movie to the ipad it indicates that it was not copied to the ipad because it cannot be played on the ipad. How do I fix this?

How to Combine an .m2v and and an .AC3 into one QT.mov file

A few years ago I converted a .mov file into an .m2v and an .AC3 using Compressor 1.2 (that was for DVD Studio Pro 3.0). I lost the .mov and now need to combine the two files into one QT .mov file. How can I do that please?
I have QT 7.1 3 in OS 10.3.9 and also the QT that came with OS 10.5.8 (I can run either OSs.) (I know that the combined file will be of poorer quality compared to the original .mov). I have Aimersoft Total Media Converter 2.0.4 which can convert video from one form to another, but it can't combine (at least I don't think so).

I lost the .mov and now need to combine the two files into one QT .mov file. How can I do that please?
If you don't have software to do this directly, basically you would have only two other options. The first would be to mux the M2V and AC3 files and then convert the "muxed" file using a compatible converter. The second, would be to convert the audio and video files separately and merge the converted files in a video editor, QT Pro, GarageBand, or a similar application.

Color and output settings for .mov files?

My GH3 shoots either AVCHD, Mp4, or its own variant of the .mov files, up to 60fps and 'all-intra'. Fine and dandy. The .mov files are the easiest to use as they are always just one file, no 'related' files to copy over etc. I'm trying to figure out how to do my grading in Sg, then render for final output so that I can then take that file and port for various possible uses such as dvd, standard computer use, web use ... typical modern stuff.
I've tried setting the timeline to various settings including gamma 1.8 and essentially "none", tried various setting in the render-output panels, using PhotoJpeg or H.264 as the "base" and then trying either no calibration or various choices there ... and still having troubles finding how to match the Sg monitor to the final output.
Any general or preferably specific ideas? I've searched a number of places, and ... this is something that is just mentioned in walk-throughs everywhere I've looked, if it even gets that much. Neither the Adobe movies nor Lynda-dot-com cover this ... and I've spent a couple days doing nothing but this. So ... ideas?

Same here, I find it unbelievable this occurs and there doesn't seem te be a solution. Is it something developpers know about but can't solve so ignore all the discussions about it?
It seems so simple to me: whether the monitor is calibrated or not, whatever monitor it is, when I place the exported movie window in Quicktime, and one in VLC, next to the Speedgrade window, all on the same monitor, it all should look the same right?! Ok, so I hear Quicktime does its own calibration while playing.
I'm working on a project now which are product films, the end result is a room where everything is white (not overexposed, all details are in there), the product black and blue, plus a model (brown skin).
I'm including a few screenshots of the same shot in different players. Speedgrade, VLC, Quicktime, MPEG Streamclip. MPEG Streamclip comes closest to the Speedgrade monitor. How can I possibly sell this to my client? This is shown on laptops at presentations, beamers via laptops (probably all Windows), big screens with a built-in mediaplayer etc, and most important: online! on youtube/ vimeo.. Not operated by experts, no control over which player is used.
The films will probably almost always be shown by someone doubleclicking on the file, so it opens in the systems standard movieplayer, Quicktime or Windows Media Player. It just has to look good in this! How do I do this?
When I place the exported clip on top of my Speedgrade timeline, it does change (the whole histogram range shifts brighter).
edit: I now exported with Automatic Color Calibration ON, the results has better contrast/ resembles contrast I see in Speedgrade. Placing this clip on top of my Speedgrade timeline shows almost exactly the same. Export to ProRes4444 AutCC: Histogram expands tiny tiny bit, can't see a change in the monitor it's so small.
Export to ProRes422 AutCC: Histogram expands a bit, you can see a slight change in the monitor (whites bit brighter, black bit darker). But acceptable.
No change in the color differences though! Skin colour varies huge in different viewers, highlights have more green/ more magenta.
speedgrade
quicktime
vlc
mpeg streamclip
These screenshots look exactly the same as how the colors are in the viewer the screenshots comes from, even when I place this browser window next to it on the same (calibrated) monitor.
Thanks for any tips..
Peter
edit 2: The frustration gets worse. Playing the clip (prores 422 with Automatic Color calibration) in Preview (Mac, by hitting spacebar when on the file in Finder) shows EXACTLY what I see in Speedgrade monitor! It feels like the solution is out there somewhere but I can't reach it (cause no one will actually play the video in Preview).

HT1368 Why can't I add just one **** song to my wishlist? Why itunes trying to be greedy and make me buy the whole album. I don't think so - amazon here I come!

Want to add just one song to my wishlist not the whole album - please help. Without using iTunes Radio - using the iTunes Store

On an iOS device you can only add the whole album, if you only want to add individual songs then you will need to use your computer's iTunes.

In 4.0.1, if I have multiple firefox windows open, when I try to close one window, it closes all. Why can't I close just one window at a time?

I open multiple Firefox windows so that I can quickly Alt+Tab between windows instead of using my mouse to point to tabs. When I close one of my Firefox windows, the browser closes all my windows. What happen to the "Close" feature under the File tab? Why don't I have the option to close only one window at a time?

I don't understand what happened above, but ericn1, wasn't your problem that you tried to close one browser window using the red X, and ALL of them closed? How did any of the above help you solve your problem? jscher2000 gave you alternate methods of closing windows but said that closing a window with the red X "should" work. It doesn't work, because it is closing ALL your windows, not just the one you are clicking on. I am now having the same problem. with Firefox.
Understand I do not have the problem with any other program. In other words, I can open multiple windows in Paint Shop Pro, IE, Notepad, etc. and close one with the red X and all others remain open. It ONLY happens when using the Firefox browser.
The red X should close only the window that you are in when you click on it.
NOW, before someone suggests tabs, I don't like them and don't use them. My choice. Before someone says my browser is out-of-date, (3.6.13) I am using it because it was the last version that worked reliably on my computers, both at home (Windows 7 Professional) and my office (Windows XP Professional).
When I updated to the last Firefox browser, both computers started seizing up (nothing worked and had to reboot using power button) Removing that version of Firefox and going back to this version solved that problem. Fact remains, version has little to do with this problem. I've seen other posts around the net about this with different (newer) versions of Firefox.
So . . . does anyone have a solution to this that doesn't involve using keystrokes or hot keys to close windows instead of the red X that should work properly?

More small datafiles or one big datafile for tablespace

Hello,
I would like to create a new tablespace (about 4 GB). Could someone if it's better to create one big datafile or create 4 datafiles with 1 GB each?
Thank you.

It depends. Most of the time, it's going to come down to personal preference.
If you have multiple data files, will you be able to spread them over multiple physical devices? Or do you have a disk subsystem that virtualizes many physical devices and spreads the data files across physical drives (i.e. a SAN)?
How big is the database going to get? You wouldn't want to have a 1 TB database with 1000 1 GB files, that would be a monster to manage. You probably wouldn't want a 250 GB database with a single data file either, because it would take forever to recover the data file from tape if there was a single block corruption.
Is there a data files size that fits comfortably in whatever size mount points you have? If you get 10 GB chunks of SAN at a time, for example, you would probably want data files that were an integer factor of that (i.e. 1, 2, or 5 GB) so that you can add similarly sized data files without wasting space and so that you can move files to a new mountpoint without worrying about whether they'll all fit.
Does your OS support files of an appropriate size? I know Windows had problems a while ago with files > 2 GB (at least when files extended beyond 2 GB).
In the end though, this is one of those things that probably doesn't matter too much within reason.

Why have "My Alerts" and "Just Added" not been updated since April 2nd?

What's going on here?

Same here. I hope it's just a temporary issue because I rely on "My Alerts" to "follow" the artists I listen to. Since I listen to a lot of artists, it is the only way I can keep track of releases from them. The only other alternative: check each and every one through search everytime I'm on iTunes!

Capturing One Big Video File

I can't seem to find the setting to let me capture one video file in PE7. It seems to create several and all I want is one. Which setting is it?
Thanks,
Brian

I'm with Hunt. I thought if you turned Scene Detection off, it would produce one big file. But I guess I'm assuming you're capturing DV-AVI from tape. If PRE is giving you fits, WinDV is a very nice (and free) capture utility that would produce one, big file for you.
I haven't yet worked (much) with HDD / flash card source assets, but I believe in that case the source would be in different files, no?
Just out of curiosity, why do you want one, big file versus several smaller?

How can I store a word file in database and other one download this file

My dears:
I want to upload a word file at my form then store in database
and other one user want to download this file
I Use developer 10g R2

thanks more

If you take a look at the WebUtil page, there is a demo which can be downloaded. Look carefully at the option to upload to DB. If you want to manipulate the doc you can use OLE. This is also offered as part of the example.

Be sure to carefully review the included ReadMe file as it includes some minor configuration required to use file upload/download functionality.

JMF does not play sound for .avi file and no video for .mov file

Hi,
I am trying to use JMStudio to transmit media files from one computer to another.
However, when I try to transmit .mov file it only plays audio no video is displayed on other computer.
And when I transmit .avi file I can see the Video on other machine but it does not
play any sound.
I tried using capture devices like - webcam and mic and they work perfectly fine.
Can anyone please tell me the solution for this.
Thank you in advance.

I discovered the same problem too..
I think it is a general Format problem.
When i analyzed the tracks in my .avi and .mov files before rtp streaming with jmf, I found each media containing just 1 track..
This track was a video track, no audio at all.
Other formats I tried, like .mpg, revealed both audio and video tracks, and performed perfectly.
I'm still on more research.. will get the solution to you if u don't find one before I'm done..

Downloading Youtube clips off of net into .mov files-is this possible?

Hello, is there a way to download a youtube clip off of the internet and get it into a .dv or .mov file? I would like to get it into a quick time file and onto a CD. I will post this in the other forums, but if anybody has a solution, I appreciate it. Thanks.

Yes it is very easy.
First, download Perian
http://perian.org/
no Quicktime user should be without it, but I don't know whether you need it for this exercise, as I already had it when I started using Youtube.
In the Window menu of Safari, choose Activity.
You will see all elements of the page-
Double-click the element which is of the flash movie file (this is usually the largest one if loaded, or the one which is still loading if movie is still loading)
The flash movie will download, but you need to add .flv file extention on the end of the filename.
It will then work with Quicktime, just like any other movie.

Why no more clips and just one big .mov file?
