Getting android videos to work - praetor - 04-05-2019

So, I really want to do video editing, but getting video taken on my Pixel 2 to be usable inside Composer or Media Illusion is not working.

What's a good file format to work with MP4 video taken on an Android phone.


K. Thx. Bai

I use Media Illusion myself and use single frame tif images for it. The downside is that you have to do the audiotrack seperate, thats a bit annoying while putting the videoclips together. I still have a problem with it, so I do the audio sync stuff on a linux machine.

I think, this is the only reasonable way for most video editing software on IRIX. There is also the OMF file format for Media Illiusion, but I have never found a way to convert it. There is almost NO information about Media Illusion on the internet, but I think that counts for a lot of commercial software on IRIX ^^

I thought as much, which makes sense how they did alot of post-production.

The added bonus is I can slip in a single frame of porn into my videos as an homage to my most favorite SGI produced film, and my second favorite film ever -Fight Club  Biggrin
