Re: How do I convert an mp4 file

2019-06-07 Thread 'Janina Sajka' via MacVisionaries 
OK, I can confirm that ffmpeg is installable with homebrew, and that it
will convert.

Here's the quick overview:

1.) Install homebrew. There are several web pages that can guide on
this task. Here's just one:

https://brew.sh/


2.) Use it to install ffmpeg at the terminal:

brew install ffmpeg

3.) Use a command to extract your audio into a format you can use in
Amadeus. Here's an example that I keep in an executable script under
/usr/local/bin that provides me a 24-bit wav file. It could just as
easily be 16-bit.


#!/bin/bash
#Use ffmpeg to extract 24bit to audio.wav
#One argument is input file
ffmpeg -i "$1" -acodec pcm_s24le -ac 2 audio.wav



The above should leave an audio.wav file in your current working
directory. Rename or further transform as needed.

If you want 16 bit instead of 24, just change that value in the
operational line above.

Good luck!

Re: How do I convert an mp4 file

2019-06-07 Thread 'Janina Sajka' via MacVisionaries 
Handbrake is about keeping the video. In rereading her post, the problem
is not the Mac, but Amadeus.

I'm now thinking she really does need something Amadeus will by happier
using. So, that means ffmpeg and a file conversion on the Terminal, imo.

I'm going to see if I can get home brew to install ffmpeg. I'll report.

Re: How do I convert an mp4 file

2019-06-07 Thread 'Janina Sajka' via MacVisionaries 
VLC will play those files, as will mplayer for osx.

These days I'm using ffmpeg to convert among formats when I need to do
that, but I do that on the Linux command line. I would expect I could
install the ffmpeg tool using Home Brew on my Mac, though, which would
make conversion in the terminal quite straight forward.

Let me know if you want to know more about that.

Best,

Janina

I need to take a file created from Skype, which is an .mp4 file and convert it

Re: How do I convert an mp4 file

2019-06-06 Thread CHUCK REICHEL 
Hi tim,
When needed I use to import the mp4 in to itunes then go to itune preferences 
change the import option to mp3 and export it that way.
Unless something changed that should still work.
The draw back to going from mp4 down to a mp3 is the quality degrades even 
further! ;(
If you need to do that give that a try.
If its a bunch of files I set up an itunes playlist just to do that and then go 
back and delete the audio files from the drive.

Re: How do I convert an mp4 file

2019-06-06 Thread 'Tim Kilburn' via MacVisionaries 
Hi,

Well, if they're mp4, then they should actually open.  Not sure why you're 
having issues with specific mp4 files.  In either case, you could use HandBrake 
to convert them to other formats.

Hi,

Your Mac should open mp4's just fine.  QuickTime, which is stock on your Mac 
will natively open mp4 files.
