Best format and codec to use in my situation?
I want to send my friend an SD card with videos I took on my iPhone. Unfortunately, he doesn't have access to a computer at all right now, which means he needs to watch the videos on his point & shoot camera. I don't know exactly what model or brand, but it's one of those really basic $100 ones. It shoots video, but it doesn't shoot HD video or anything, only 480p.
I'm going to put the iPhone videos into Premiere Pro and I want to export them to the right file extension and codec for a regular point & shoot camera to read them. What is your best guess here?
There's no codec or process that will do what you want. A point and shoot camera can't even play the video or stills it captured once moved to a computer and copied to another SD card and re-inserted in the camera…
You can keep trying, but ot won't ever work.
Generally, step 1 for cameras and camcorders is to "format the memory card in the camera". There are several reasons to do this - one of them is a "database file" gets set up on the memory card. It keeps track of the stuff the camera captures through the camera's lens. That way it can play things back or display them. When you introduce a memory card that has images and video from another source (in this case your iPhone), there's no database and camera has no idea where things are on the memory card or what the files are that are there.
No "best guess" needed. What you propose to do will not work, period. This is positive 100% reality.
Point and shoot cameras will only play videos they have taken.
- Which converter you use for converting videos to iPhone format? I have been trying to convert videos to iPhone 4s (ios 8.1) format with several videos converters, but nothing helps. After converting, videos not shows up in iTunes "by dragging or by adding file option". Any solution would be helpful. I'm on Windows 7.
- What is the best iPhone app that shoots in high quality TIFF/RAW format? I'm looking for an app that shoots higher quality images than the default iPhone camera takes. I have an iPhone 5s if that matters at all.
- What is the best cellphone provider for this situation? College student graduating in a year with no job and some money saved. Have iphone, but don't care about model except it has to have LTE other than that i'm fine with any model with it. Only use it for occasional calls and texts, but mostly daily browsing and reading via safari. What would be the best provider for my situation? At the moment on my parents verizon plan, but not sure if verizon is the best for my situation, any suggestions?
- What format do you use for your iPhone music? MP3 320kbps or AAC 296kbps? I was wondering if anyone of you guys knew which is better quality? Is the 320kbps MP3 format better than the AAC 256kbps? The AAC takes less space but will i know the difference?
