.MOV editor???

hey not sure if this is the correct place to ask but does anyone know how to edit a .MOV video file??

or is there anyone that can do it for me?? i just want the begining and end of my burnout video
removed its only a 30sec vid

Try using Sony Vegas... It's an editing program but it would work, no doubts.

How big is the file? If it's not too huge, upload it and I'll have a look at sorting it out, what file type do you want it to become? Or edit?

the file is only 3 meg ive somehow managed to convert it AVI but i just want to delete some of the vid ill speak to you over the weekend on TS if your on cheers for the reply

Sure mate, I'll hopefully be around.

I've been working almost non-stop on sony vegas over the last week, I will happily do it in about 5 mins and upload it to youtube..

or a note for peachy if you want to do it and I hope I'm not pointing out the obvious, output the sony vegas file in Codec SONY AVC then choose the Internet <resolution> option. This way you don't lose any quality but the file size is tiny. For example, my 15GB 2:22-second clip was only 112mb in this format and you can't notice a loss in quality.

cheers boys im goin to uplaod it soon just trying to find a web site to to it www.youshareit.com ???

aaaahhhh found one megaupload

i just need the vid edited so all i end up with is a 10 sec vid from 20sec mark to the 30 sec mark
does that maka seeennnsssae

Ah, well it seems Middy knows more

Used Adobe Premiere and output in QuickTime Movie format again

C44u2, did you edit it or am I still required to edit it?

Actually it looks like you better give it a try Middy.
The quality has dropped with my edit.
Adobe Premiere really only loves working with DV format.

if you could do it for me mate id appreciate it im hopeless with editing cheers for all your help guys

and thanks heaps c4 i didnt see your upload

Haha, you can't go wrong with Vegas, just edit it Middy, you know what your doing

I'll be asking you how to do stuff soon I'm sure ;D

I'll do it now. Do you need anything done to it at all or just the raw clip segment?

As soon as you open the file in Sony Vegas, the .MOV file quality is reduced a fair bit. As far as I am aware, there is no way around this.. maybe next time you do burnouts you should take a proper camera


Anyway, here's the best I could do with it:

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=DUOINPDI

Filename: Burnout.mp4
File Format: MPEG-4
Size: 2.33 MB
Pixel Size: w266xh470

sweet you are a champion middy thankyou very much

No worries man, any time

That looks like (de-)interlacing isn't working properly.

Stabby, the original resolution of the original was 480x272 (the clip was recorded on its side) at a rather bizarre resolution.

When you pull this into sony vegas, to render an output clip without black sides you need a pixel aspect ratio of 0.32000, but the minimum render pixel aspect ratio for sony vegas is 0.5000 strangely.

Therefore, the only way to output the clip without black borders was to manipulate the original pixel size. The picture above was the first result, in the released clip the quality isn't half as bad as it was in that picture as I found the optimal resolution whilst keeping a pixel aspect ratio of 1.0000 was 267x471 (which automatically changes to 268x472 when outputting, leaving a slight black border).

Therefore my final effort was just to leave the pixel resolution as 266x470.

Maybe changing the default deinterlacing settings may help, I'll look into it next time I come across it, thank you for the point-out

it wa recorded off LMB-Mics I4 i think the phone is more homo than him lol

I hate Vegas and avoid it like the plague now so I'm not going to be any help with it.

If all you want to do is simply change the format, maybe try a more low-tech program like VirtualDubMod. It's super basic and I find it works fantastically for converting video streams - it will not convert audio streams but it will let you add and remove audio tracks.

Got to love VirtualDubMod combined with DubMan for batching file format conversions.
I used VDubMod to change FRAPS output to DV format so Adobe would play nice with it. But now I have lost where I installed the files for VDubMod so I didn't try and convert the file before editing. I think I may have archived it off to my NAS. Will have to get that back on the system ...

you lost me after the word vegas lol

on the iphone if u want to watch it on tv or pc u have to hold it on the side would have been nice to know this as there is no editor on the piece of shit to rotate vids, but on the phone itself it shows it the right way round. sorry fellas (but not really)
