Export Videos from iMovie to FLV on Mac El Capitan

Summary: Failed to export videos from iMovie to FLV? Take it easy. To achieve that, you need a professional video converting program to convert iMovie videos to FLV as you need. Read this article, you will get the best solution to this problem.

I've edited some videos in iMovie and I need to export them to FLV (Flash Video) for a website. I've tried Share-Export video and Share-export using Quicktime, but iMovie (09) does not have "Export to FLV" as export options!

Actually, the Flash Video FLV file format is a container file format used to deliver video over the Internet. It has been accepted as the default online video format by many sites. Notable users of it include YouTube, Hulu, VEVO, Yahoo! Video, metacafe, Reuters.com, and many other news providers. iMovie does not natively support FLV output. A workaround is to share the iMovie other format video to YouTube and then download the video, which would be in FLV format. This method is time consuming and you'll need a YouTube Downloader in order to capture your video from YouTube. Alternatively, a professional Pavtube iMedia Converter for Mac gives you hassle free experience. You can output your iMovie videos in any format on Mac (Mac OS X El Capitan, Yosemite, Mavericks and Mountain Lion included) and than convert them to FLV (Flash Video) in 3 easy steps.

Import Sony CX405 XAVC-S/AVCHD/MP4 to Sony Vegas Pro for Editing

Summary: Have you ever captured some videos with your Sony CX405 but not able to upload to edit them on Sony Vegas Pro? This article will help you a lot to solve this issue.

“I have captured some videos clips about 20 or so with my new Sony CX405, the recordings are in XAVC-S/AVCHD format with 4K resolution. I would like to edit them on Sony Vegas Pro so that I can share these interesting videos with my friends through Internet or on YouTube. But the problem is, my Sony Vegas Pro has no ability to edit such high definition files, I want to find some apps can import the Sony CX405 XAVC-S/AVCHD to Sony Vegas Pro. Can anyone suggest something to help me out?”

Vegas Pro is a contemporary NLE designed for complete creative control. New features include advanced archival tools, sophisticated audio metering, and the Vegas Pro Connect mobile iPad companion app. Vegas Pro 13 comes complete with DVD Architect Pro 6, Dolby Digital Professional Encoder, and plug-in collections from FXHOME, NewBlueFX, and iZotope.

As it claimed, Sony Vegas Pro 12 is the first native 4K XAVC editor. Sony Vegas Pro 12 and the latest version Vegas Pro 13 support a complete 4K workflow when you're working with 4K XAVC and XAVC S. Of course, working with 4K files can be taxing on your computer, especially if you don't have the most powerful machine to edit on. From our tests it looks like Sony Vegas Pro 12/13 has to create a lower resolution proxy file to display in the NLE while you edit, so you have to wait for the proxy file to be created before you can edit any 4K footage. In this process, it will cost some time.

Well, if you don't like the way, or have the old version of Sony Vegas Pro that doesn't support Sony CX405’s 4K video, an alternative way is to convert 4K video with Pavtube Video Converter and then import to Sony Vegas Pro directly. This video converter perfectly works as the Sony CX405’s 4K to Vegas Pro Converter that helps you convert XAVC, XAVC S or any 4K files to MPEG-2, which is the best format for Vegas to edit with ease. No expensive add-ons or plug-ins are required. With it, you may also transcode 4K video to Avid Media Composer, Adobe Premiere Pro, Windows Movie Maker, Pinnacle Studio and more NLE programs highly compatible formats for editing. If you are a Mac user, please turn to Pavtube Video Converter for Mac.

How to Edit Sony A7R II 4K XAVC S in Avid Media Composer on Mac

Watching Sony 4k video is highly intriguing and gives real life experience to the viewers. But editing those super smooth and high definition videos is a Herculean task and can transform into an agony when you a lack a super computer. When you got a Sony Alpha a7 II, you can easily shot some 4k XAVC S footage. Then you would wanna know how to use the Sony A7R II XAVC S footage in Avid Media Composer or other NELs. Since there are users complained that Avid Media Composer doesn’t natively import or AMA link A7R II XAVC S files, I will show a workaround in this page. Just learn the Sony A7R II XAVC S to Avid MC workflow.

When importing and editing Sony A7R II 4K XAVC/XAVC S videos in Avid Media Composer, users always encounter video and audio problems, as XAVC (.mxf) or XAVC S (*.mp4) format is efficient, but simply isn’t engineered to maintain quality during complex post production effects processing. Uncompressed HD format delivers superior image quality, but data rates and file sizes can stop a workflow dead in its tracks. Well, Avid DNxHD format delivers both efficiency and quality without compromises. So, before transferring Sony XAVC/XAVC S to Avid MC, you’d better convert Sony XAVC/XAVC S to Avid DNxHD for smoothly editing.

Overall, UFUWare XAVC/XAVC-S Converter for Mac is just one of the best Avid XAVC Converter for you to transcode XAVC/XAVC-S files for Avid smooth editing on Mac (Yosemite/Mavericks included). The program is capable of converting Sony XAVC/XAVC-S to DNxHD, MPEG-2, Apple ProRes, AIC, etc on Mac OS X for smoothly importing and editing in various non-linear editing systems (NLE), including Avid Media Composer 5.5/6.0/6.5, Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, iMovie and more. If you’re using a Windows PC, please turn to its equivalent Windows version – XAVC/XAVC S Converter. Below is the workflow of Sony XAVC/XAVC S to DNxHD MOV conversion.
