WILL FINAL EXPORT FROM QUICKTIME OVERWRITE OTHERS

I have a project that was created using jpegs and mp4's that were exported using the H.264 format, I initially exported entire project with H.264 only to not be able to play on LG Google TV... after talking to LG, realized I needed to save project with video format of MPEG 4 so I did using MPEG 4 BASIC using quicktime out of I-movie... however, I did not convert the mp4 slides inside project to MPEG-4, they were left in the H.264 format will my final export to the MPEG 4 format overwrite those inside the project to also be MPEG 4 so that the tv will play them?? The entire project is a slide show.

Thank you for the info... I have done just what you suggested, but left the mp4 inside the slide show, saved/imported with the h.264 formatting hoping the final export to MPEG 4 BASIC for the entire slideshow would overwrite those MP4's used in slideshow (that were exported as H.264, and then imported back in for final presentation export). I am wanting it to be played on LG Google TV and know now that the tv doesn't recognize the H.264 video formatting so thus my re-export of project using MPEG 4 BASIC, tv will read this format codec... along with several others but not H.264... it will read H.63 & H.64 along with DIVX 3.11, 4.12, 5 & 6 The only thing at this point that I can figure is that the mp4's i used as individual slides with moving parts and exported using H.264 then re imported to use also need to be re exported using the MPEG 4 BASIC so that hopefully I won't receive the message of "This movie can't be viewed/played on this television/device" stumped and hoping for a resolution...

Exporting from Quicktime for optimal editing in FinalCut Express

I've read that it is recommended to export H.264 for best quality in Quicktime, but Final Cut Express doesn't play H.264 in real time. It forces you to render if you want to edit in the timeline. What is the best format to export from Quicktime in to enable real time editing in FCE?

To convert the file so that FCE doesn't need rendering you need QuickTime Pro and do the following:
- open the file
- menu File > Export...: then select +Export: Movie to QuickTime Movie+ and click Options.
- In the +Video > Settings+ dialog select:
- Compression Type: DV/DVCPRO-NTSC (or DV-PAL) and make sure that:
- Frame Rate: 29.97 (or 25), Quality is Best, Scan Mode: Interlaced, Aspect Ratio: 4:3 (or 16:9 if anamorphic)
- In the +Sound > Settings+ dialog select:
- Format: Linear PCM, Channels: Stereo (L R), Rate: 48000, Quality: Normal, Sample size: 16 bits
The result is a .mov file (not .dv) that doesn't need rendering when imported to FCE to a sequence with setup DV-NTSC (or PAL).

Exporting from Quicktime to reduce file size

I'd like to export from quicktime to a smaller file size. That is, I have a 16.9 meg file I want to optimize for my website. When I try exporting it using the share function, there's no audio on the exported file. I've tried the Export function as well, using Movie to Quicktime movie settings, and the default H.264 compression. Same result...no audio. What settings should I use that will retain audio and shrink the file size so it'll load faster? Thanks.

QuickTime Pro can't extract audio from MPEG-1 files (muxed) so only the video is converted.
MPEG Streamclip (free) can export to QuickTime formats and include the audio track.

Keynote 08 will NOT export to Quicktime

I think it is ever since I installed Leopard or Keynote 08 that my Keynote recordings will not export to Quicktime. During 2007 I made many Quicktime movies using Keynote all of which exported successfully.
When I click on "Export" the function commences. The movie will then play in a Quicktime window with my voice over recording which I made in Keynote, but it will NOT save as a Quicktime movie that can be used elsewhere.
Does anyone have a workable answer to this issue.
Thanks

The other work around that I've found is to tell it "send to iDVD" but then quit iDVD when it pops that up. You'll end up with just the quicktime file it created.
What I noticed is that when a "quicktime export" plays in QT, it has a fps rate of like 7 or 8 or even 13 but the dynamic "playing fps" goes up to 30 during transitions and back to 0 when there isn't a transition. At least with the iDVD cheat you end up with 24 fps. That may work for some people, that is film rate, but I'm in need of NTSC DV 29.97. So I import it into Final Cut Express, and do an export conversion.
I don't use audio, so I don't know how that would work in this cheat, but since your voiceover (I'm guessing based on trying to put music to my slides) is one entire track, you can add that in FCE before that export and line it up there.
If anyone else has suggestions to get a 29.97 export correct with the "export to quicktime", I'd love to hear it. This cheat takes too long for my work.

Firewall nags every time I start an export from quicktime!?

Every time I start exporting from quicktime the firewall asks me to allow incoming network connections and to enter my admin user name and password.
I've checked the firewall in system preferences and quicktime is on the application list and set to allow incoming connections.
I've also tried reinstalling quicktime but to no avail.
Any ideas on what might be causing this?

Go to "/Library/StartupItems/LexSleeper.app” and delete the file. You'll likely need to use an admin password and be prompted to enter your password before the app will be Trashed. Reoboot and the message should be gone and you should be able to empty the trash.

Photoshop CS5 won't open a PNG pct exported from Quicktime

I exported a move to still from Quicktime Pro, using the PNG compression settings, and when I try to open it in Photoshop CS5 I get the error message "Could not complete your request because the PICT contains data that is no longer supported in this version of Photoshop." Photoshop CS4 has no such compunction. And I was able to open them in CS4 and recompress them and get CS5 to open them, but this is really annoying. I often have to make screengrabs of Quicktime movies. Looks like I will have to do it staight from within Final Cut and not use Quicktime to do it.
I have included a still of the error message:
And a still of the Quicktime compression settings:

"I am curious. How can changing the the extension of a file format trick photoshop or software in doing something that it can not do.
I thought that it did not have the engine to translate the data. So what happens to a file by simply changing the extension. Is the data altered ?"
That's a real good question and something that's been a frustration since the introduction of OS X. Such behavior was never a factor in an Apple OS until Unix. Such nonsense was always part of Windows behavior. It seemed to me it was actually worse immediately after the transition from OS9 to OS X, then improved, now is very stringent again.
I have thousands of Illustrator files (suffix .ai). I have been working with several other vector programs lately, including Intaglio, a Cocoa product. Intaglio refuses to recognize a .ai file, although it is nothing but a plain text file with proper PostScript code. If I save the file out of Illustrator as an EPS file (suffix .eps) Intaglio has no problem opening it. The difference between a . ai file and the same image as a .eps is only a subtle change in some of the PostScript comments in the file, but nothing that really changes the graphic data. So why does the program give an error message with the .ai file that it is an Unsupported File type?
Even more perplexing, if I simply change the .ai suffix to .eps, Intaglio is perfectly happy with the file. It opens and displays perfectly. Nothing has changed in the file data by changing the suffix.
This kind of behavior seems to be an interaction between applications and the OS. The application calls the OS to perform certain functions and the OS demands a particular convention of the file name, or it sends back an error message and the application stops at that point.
Have you noticed that the OS asks if you really want to change a file name suffix? That's how insistent it is that the name be a certain type.
TextEdit is a program with no graphic capabilities. If I try to open a PostScript file with it, it balks. (I don't want it to display the graphic page layout - I want to edit the content of the file) A PostScript file has mostly plain ASCII text that can be read and changed by anyone who is familiar with PostScript. (There also can be some long streams of binary image or font data. Such data can't easily be edited, but a programmer could locate it, remove it, or move it around in a text editor program). TextEdit will not open a .ai or .eps PostScript text file as text, unless I change the suffix to .txt. Older (OS9) editors have no such problem and other "programmer editors" ignore the suffix also.
Programs should (and can) open and display (or reject) files correctly by the nature of the data in the file without any need to examine the file name.
Apparently, some applications (Graphic Converter?) have decided to ignore the file name nonsense and deal with the actual file data, as they should just like OS9 and previous Mac Oses did. But OS X "conforming programs" insist on the strict Unix way of doing things.
I have always felt there was some kind of passive-aggressive, arrogant insistence on this by the Unix/NeXT programmers who came with Steve Jobs when he returned to Apple. Early NeXT/OS X implementations of the Mac Desktop were very un-Mac-like and were eventually changed after howls of protest from the Mac community. But they never relented on the file suffix thing, apparently insisting that the human-readable file name was critical to the machine's understanding of the file type.
All this nonsense is unnecessary as the very simple workarounds prove and very inconvenient for the user. There's just finger pointing and standing on principle and insisting on adherence to some pedantic specification, rather than operational effectiveness.

Export from Quicktime to Flash

Hello, I have several Quicktime trailers (1 minute and 8
minutes long) that I want to encode in Flash so that I can place on
my website. I can either export from Final Cut Pro using the FLV
codec or use my Flash 8 encoder. These are my questions:
1. Does one way produce better quality than another? I have
also heard that Sorenson Squeeze produces better quality
compression than either of these two methods. Is this true?
2. I imported the QT movie (.mov) into the Flash 8 encoder
and saved using Flash 8 medium quality. I then placed the FLV file
on my site. However, when the link to the Flash file is clicked,
the flash movie does not play; it asks you if you want to download
the file. When I download the file, it will not open. What am I
doing wrong? Shouldn't the flash file stream open?
3. Are there any tutorials available on QT to Flash that can
help me?
Thank you for any advice you can offer me.

Hello,
I think you posted this in the wrong forum, here is the Adobe Captivate forum.

Exporting from FCX to other programs

How easy is it to export from Final Cut Pro X to other programs such as Pro Tools and After Effects? Have there been problems when going between FCX and these programs?

Either that or select the photo you want and drag it from iPhoto into the open window of the other application. Most apps will accept photos that way. You will get the full version of it that way.

Export from Quicktime...and...no sound. Why?

I have a 16.9 meg movie file and when I export it from Quicktime there's no sound. Why is this, and is there any way around this? I've tried using MPeg streamclip to export it, and it will, but the file ends up being bigger than I'd like. I'd like to shrink it down to about 4 or 5 megs.

You cannot export the sound from a muxed file like an mpg file, as this article from Apple states:
QT Mpeg Limitations
Fortunately there is a workaround this limitation, in the form of this freeware that will export both the video and sound from mpegs:

Keynote 3.0.2 Will Not Export to Quicktime

I have a put together a Keynote presentation that uses a Quicktime movie on one of the slides. The presentation plays fine within Keynote, but when I try to export the presentation to Quicktime, the export stops and tells me there's not enough memory or there's something wrong with the file. The message comes up when the export procedure reaches the slide that contains the Quicktime movie. Is it possible to export a Keynote presentation to a Quicktime Movie if the presentation has a movie in it? That's like a movie inside a movie. I can't get it to export to QTime.

The other work around that I've found is to tell it "send to iDVD" but then quit iDVD when it pops that up. You'll end up with just the quicktime file it created.
What I noticed is that when a "quicktime export" plays in QT, it has a fps rate of like 7 or 8 or even 13 but the dynamic "playing fps" goes up to 30 during transitions and back to 0 when there isn't a transition.

Export from QuickTime: Just the music

Posting this under QuickTime and GarageBand2.
Is it possible to export just the music from QuickTime Player? If so, how?
To, for example, iTunes. And/or burn song to a CD?
Brought in some music I created via keyboard and a music program called Band-in-a-Box. Plays perfectly in Quicktime, but I want to get it into iTunes, or burn it to a CD.
When going through GarageBand 2, I lose some of the original sounds and effects I created.
It comes into QuickTime as MIDI.
I'm using QuickTime Player 7.5(v149.5) Computer specs are below.
Thanks.

MIDI isn't really "music" (in the CD sense).
QuickTime Pro could export what it "hears" into an AIFF file (like those found on CD's).

Flash Export from Quicktime not available

Just installed Flash 8 on my mack book pro (os 10 .4.9) but
the option to export to .flv from quicktime pro is not coming up in
the menu. Does anybody know why this is not appearing. The
component is installed but not showing up in quicktimes pull down
menu.
Any help would be great, thanks in advance.

I am having the same problem. Except I had installed CS3 and
I had encoded quite a few quicktime files to FLV. Then today for no
reason the flv option is gone from the quicktime menu. I haven't
done anything different from yesterday to today. I installed the
new version of Mac os X last week but that didn't change anything
in my quiktime. So I am really getting annoyed at this and really
don't have time to be chasing ghosts all day.... You know you just
want your tools to work when you pay for them... So if anybody has
any info that would be great.

Will Not Export To Quicktime Error -1

Keynote has worked exporting to Quicktime perfectly in the past, but now says i don't have enough memory to export to Quicktime with an error or -1.
Just had plain text with me doing voiceover for about 20 minutes.
Have done it before with no problems.
I tried going to Library and removing the preferences for Keynote thinking maybe something got corrupted, but no dice.
Any help would be appreciated!

Was able to export after rebooting.

Export from Quicktime as DV Stream to FCP: Always requries audio rendering.

Hello,
I am trying to export some mp4 files to DV Stream so that I can import it into FCP. I want to do this without having to render in FCP.
When I export at DV Stream NTSC 48.0 Khz, I don't have to render the video but the audio always needs to be rendered. This is very strange because my audio sequence in 48.0 khz. I'm totally bewildered.
Thanks.

I am using quicktime player to export out. Are there specific export settings to use?
It looks like when export at quicktime, H.264, it compresses it. Then when I import into FCP, I have to render the video when I do my subtitling over the video... is there any way to avoid this?
