[SOLVED] [X5] Import MOV files?

[Shohreh]

Hello

I recorded a few video files with a cheap digital picture camera that look like this file:

Code: Select all

c:\>ffprobe.exe -i MVI_5908.mov

Input #0, mov,mp4,m4a,3gp,3g2,mj2, from 'MVI_5908.mov':

VideoStudio can't import them. What would be the best way to convert those files so that they can be imported, preferable without an re-encoding?

Thank you.

Hi

You cannot convert a video to a different format without re-encoding.

Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer?

Thanks for the tip.

It works when convering just the audio and the container format:

Code: Select all

ffmpeg.exe -i input.mov -c:v copy -c:a libmp3lame -ab 128000 -ar 44100 -ac 2 -shortest -f mp4 output.mp4
