Video file on Mac turns into .jpg on PC when transferred

I'm trying to transfer my photos and videos of the desktop computer iMac to a PC via a hard drive external. I've formatted it as I had to. I took a small sample to test. The problem I have is that my video files on Mac turn into a .jpg on the PC file.

How can you transfer them? To change the extension itself? Never heard say that happen on any computer system, let's assume that I would try to make the copy using double Commander called free file manager on OS X and the PC to be sure we have file transfer control

  • Put links to video files in web pages - want option 'Open with' when the viewer clicks on the links.

    If I go to a video file that is stored in my computer, for example xyz.mp4 and right click on it, one of the options is 'Open with' and several options for example QuickTime player, RealPlayer are presented for me to choose. But when I add the file to a web page and create a link to it for example http://sillyvideos.com/xyz.mp4 and then I right click on this link (on the web page) in my Firefox browser, I don't get the option 'open with '. My question is: is it possible to put a link to a video in a web page, so I or other viewers can click right on it and benefit from the option 'open with' (so we can choose the drive to open it, without having to download first in our computers)?

    Normally what happens, is that the server sends the content with one or more headers that dictate what Firefox did with the video.

    For example, if the content is sent with a header that Firefox can play internally, then Firefox can open the video in a tab and use a built-in player. You can see with MP3s when the server says that it is "audio/mpeg" content. However, if the server sends a content type that a capable of handling plugin, Firefox can attempt this plugin.

    Normally Firefox will assume that the content is meant to be displayed in the browser, unless it is an unknown type or has a content-disposition header set to "attachment". In these cases, Firefox usually has open/save/Cancel dialog box.

    I don't know what kinds of choices you want to offer visitors to your site, but if you thought giving them a choice of the players external , sending to content-disposition: attachment to make appear the probably the most logical open/save/Cancel dialog box. With smaller files such as JPEG and PDF, I did it with a script on the server side (for example, a PHP script). I don't know if the script would work with multimedia files.

    If you want to provide more choices, you might need the buttons or links in the page.

    This example applies to a PDF file, but the same idea applies to the image files and it can work with files more mainstream media. (In this case, you change the script to specify the correct content type.)

    Implementation of the PHP approach, you follow these steps. This assumes that your server supports PHP (most do so) and that your Web host allows you to download PHP files.

    (1) save the following as getpdf.php file

    http://www.jeffersonscher.com/RES/getpdf.php.txt

    (2) using a FTP software or your server download function, copy getpdf.php into the same folder as your PDF file

    (3) test with your link. In the address bar, or in an e-mail, insert the following text before the name of the PDF file:

    getpdf.php?f=
    

    Thus, for example, this direct link to the PDF:

    http://www.jeffersonscher.com/RES/Mixed_Content_Blocking.PDF

    would become this link to the PHP file:

    http://www.jeffersonscher.com/RES/getpdf.php? f =Mixed_Content_Blocking.pdf

  • pictures turn into a 'temperature card' when editing

    Hello

  • Video files pasted/exported on USB or HDD twice?

    Hey all,.

    When I download a video or export some of my own and put them on a USB Flash drive to connect to my Samsung Smart curved TV, rather than a single video that works on the USB port, there are two files. Who says: "unable to read the selected format" and another who plays very well.

    It's frustrating, because instead of only 40 videos on my USB key, I have 80. And half do not work, which is difficult to navigate as it shows only 8 videos through the screen of the TV.

    This problem is not moved when the Flash DRIVE has been formatted for WINDOWS ONLY, he started since I erased and reset it as MS-DOS FAT *.

    Thank you!

    These files are not additional video files, are Mac system files, they are hidden on a disk as Mac OS X, but are visible when the drive is formatted under DOS.

    I delete these files before sending video on USB memory drives customers using an application called own ejection, it is free software and is available for download here: own ejection

  • Import Itunes M4V video files

    Hey guys I'm new to the Forum and I tried looking for other discussions to help but did not find what I was looking for so I hope someone can help or redirect me. I just downloaded a video file to iTunes, a TV show, I want to change. This is my first time downloading something from iTunes that I usually get my videos by other means, but I just learned that the video files cannot be imported into Adobe except DRM protection on iTunes products are stolen and then converted to another file as H.264. Only problem is that I don't know where to go to remove the DRM from my file and find something that I would trust to download on my computer. Can someone help me with something I can use to remove the DRM or knows of any way around this. I'm just trying to practice some video editing on an episode of TV that I bought, so you'd think I'd be able to do what I wanted with her, but apparently not. Thank you.

    Yes, that's amazing considering I bought it and that's why people resort to other measures. Thanks for your comments guys, I found a way to get what I need without breaking the protection.

  • FMS4.5 live stream with multiple video files as a single source?

    I use Flash Media server 4.5 and I read the tutorial if I want to play the live stream, I may need to use the Live Media Encoder.

    But what I found in media encode is I manually set up everything and it only supported cameras.

    But in my case, I have several video files keep the receipt of another program and place it on the filesystem (server).

    My goal is use the Flash Media server to perform a live boardcasting with these video files one by one.

    This means when customer watch a live streaming, they won't notice the server plays mov1, then mov2, then mov3, then mov4... and so on.

    You can imagine I try boardcast say a sequences live during 60 s,.

    the video file will be not recorded entirely after 60 seconds, but not for every 10 seconds, I will deliver a video file,

    so that when watching the live of HLS customer (for example http://xxxx.com/live123( )

    When time reach 10 seconds, a video file available mov1 and FMS should boardcast this video on live123.

    When the time achieve 20 seconds, a video file available mov2 and FMS must immediately follow the boardcast mov1 on live123.

    and so on...

    FMS can dynamically create a new session of streaming (call by code),

    so that when the customer a download of some video files to the server, the FMS log new stream streaming only cilent video files?

    boardcasting as configuring the size of the screen, bitrate, etc. must be predefined on the server.

    (e.g. customer boardcast on http://xxxx.com/live123, CustomerB boardcast on http://xxxx.com/live124...)

    so the fact that possible to use FMS perform these ideas? or y at - it approaches?

    I am very new to FMS, if I have any misconcept FMS or media encoder (live), please do not hesitate to correct me.

    Thank you!

    Hello

    To have OUT load videos from sources of files, to be released at this stage, you need third party software like ManyCam.

    Otherwise, FMS can use source files and a playlist-like, side Publisher.

    Thus, you must request script on the server, server to play files and publish (publish side Server) to be subscribed by customers. Essentially, we ask the server to replace GFFE/encode streams published by sources to have the publishing server-read the file stream.

    http://help.Adobe.com/en_US/flashmediaserver/ssaslr/index.html should give more information on how to do it.

    Thank you!

  • Can Media Encoder take a sequence of images in the watch folder and turn it into a video file?

    I use OSX and Media Encoder 6 (6 pm) and does not know how the spyware file take a .jpeg or .dpi sequence and turn it into a single video file.

    I tried to copy all photos in the folder of the watch, who made 60 video files individual (one for each image).

    I tried to make a subfolder in the watch folder and copy images in there... to which Media Encoder did nothing.

    What Miss me? Media Encoder will take image sequences and make out like an audio-less video for me?

    Thanks for any imput.

    Hi action_packed,

    This is the documentation: http://helpx.adobe.com/media-encoder/using/add-items-encoding-queue.html

    Still image sequences are not supported as a source through spyware records footage. If a set of still images is placed in the watched folder, each individual file will be added under a separate item in the queue rather than the entire sequence as a single piece of film.

  • How to make a file saved in the widescreen format to burn widescreen? When I try to burn in idvd, it turns into 4:3.

    I use FCX. I saved my video in a file and I am trying to burn on a dvd.

    It is recorded in 16 / 9, but when I try to burn using idvd turns into 4:3. What I am doing wrong?

    But a better question is what can I do to stop this? Thank you.

    If you export 1920 x 1080 or 1280 X 720 square pixels and the iDVD project is set to widescreen 16 X 9, it must encode and display correctly. However, iDVD does not translate the anamorphic (e.g. 1440 x 1080) formats well. So, if your project FCP HDV (or DVCPRO HD), export it to the CPF in format Pro ResMaster and bringing in iDVD.

  • How to split a large video file into several episodes/files?

    Hi all

    I have a 52 minute video I need to divide into 3 separate files until I can modify it (so I can download it on youtube as 3 separate episodes). I know how to separate the layers and make all make the base edition etcetera, but I'm stumped on how to turn those divide the layers into separate files.

    Any help on this is much appreciated.

    Thanks in advance

    If you split just a video using Premiere Pro or The Adobe Media Encoder directly. You will save a lot of time. In the SOUL, you can set a duration for the three segments. In Premiere Pro just create three sequences and add them to the render tail. It's really basic things. You should study upward.
