I tried following these instructions https://pantherfile.uwm.edu/type/www/116/SoftwareTutorials/QuickTimePro/DougProu ty_QTPro_Tutorial/QuickTimePro_DougProuty.pdf
But can't find where to choose the frame rate. So when I add it to my video it goes away so quick you can't even read it.
Can anyone please help me with this.
Thank you.
Windows 7
Those instructions are very old and not intended for a single image.
In your case you need to give your still image some "time" (duration). Easy to do with QuickTime Player Pro.
Open any audio file in QuickTime, make a selection (in and out points) that matches the duration you wish for the image file. Let's say an mp3 with a ten second selection. Leave this window open.
Open your image file in QuickTime. Select All (Edit menu) and Copy. Close this window.
Switch to your audio file selection. From the Edit menu choose Add to Selection & Scale. You'll see the window expand in dimensions as your image is added.
Open the Movie Properties window (Windows menu). You'll notice it now has a "Video" track.
Single click on the Video track and then click the "Extract" button (upper left of the window). The ten second video track will open in a new Player window.
Close the audio file window without saving.
Do a "Save As" on the image video track. Give this new .mov file a name and location. Leave the window open.
Select All and copy the ten second video track. Switch to the movie file you want to add it to and move the playhead to the end. From the Edit menu "Paste" the ten second video. It will be added to the end of the movie.
Save As (self contained) and name the new video.
Thank you for your response! I may try again. In the meantime, I actually found Microsoft Movie Maker. SO much easier. I also can't seem to get my video in Quicktime to save and when I try saving using export, the quality is terrible! I have a Nikon D800, so it's a high quality video. It took me less than 5 minutes using Movie Maker and it saved a high quility video. Annoyed I paid for Quicktime when Movie Maker is free and WAY easier!! Oh-well.
Thank you again for your response.
I have a question, was this a .mov? Just curious because Windows Movie Maker does not support .mov
That's where QuickTime Pro comes in. You have to convert from .mov to .avi to get WMM to accept it, then with alot more steps it becomes a .wmv
It's an .MB file. ?? I don't know much about videos yet, so not sure what the different file extensins mean or do. lol I just upgraded my camera this year and just started playing around with the video. 😀
I do hope Quicktime will come in handy eventually. Right now I just need something simple. Add music and a page at the end of the video.
How to add an image at the end of a video?
