I have a workaround to get the MP4 trimmable Even if the original file was something recorde s a screenshot of the Mac. I'm not convinced there wasn't a bug in some versions since sometimes files would not save/export no matter what I did. I might have used something else to do the conversion. I thought I was doing all of that in QuickTime but I don't see those settigns in the current version after giving it a quick look. I think I remeber saving the problem file as an mov which is what you are forced to do and then converting the file to mp4 later. One thing I did try when this happened and it seemed to work. I wonnder if the timecode did not save properly when the file was saved and the problem gets compunded as the file is edited. When I've had that issue it has been with things such as captures of old videotape that has started to degrade. mov as the filetype, but I have a theory. I don't have a definite answer for why you are sometimes forced to use. I've had some of the problems you mention. I usually just used the split clip function. I wasn't using the trim function much since I never got the hang of that. In fact, I was using it to shoot and edit some of the video chats as well as a few other things. I've used Quicktime Player quite a bit for the kind of editing you're doing. Not sure why I didn't answer the first time. Then sometimes it won't let you make even 1 split without disappearing. Sometimes it will let you make multiple splits before it disappears. *I've noticed that sometimes the CMD + S option will be available after you split 1 clip, but then disappear after another split.

So what gives? How can I get QuickTime 10 to save as MP4 consistently or save to MOV at an acceptable file size like QuickTime 7 Pro does? When QuickTime 10 does let me save as an MP4 files (situations 1 and 2), the file size is the same as QuickTime 7's MOV files. Well, lo and behold, if I trim this same original video in the same way using QuickTime 7 Pro and save it as a MOV file, it is only 61 MB (as you'd expect). Well, considering that the video length was reduced to only about 17% of the original length, you'd expect the edited video to be around 60 MB. The MOV file QuickTime 10 saved was 208 MB. For example, today I was trimming a 355 MB MP4 video. The problem is when the 3rd situation happens (only option is MOV). It won't let me use CMD + S *, but if I try to close the video, it will prompt me to save as a MOV file.

It won't let me use CMD + S *, but if I try to close the video, it will prompt me to save as another MP4 file.ДЈ. It lets me save the trimmed video using File > Save (CMD + S) as another MP4 file.Дў. Well here are the three situations that could happen:ДЎ. When I'm using QuickTime 10 to trim these videos as described above and click Done, I obviously want to save the trimmed video. Most of the video's I'm editing are in MP4 format. After you are finished, you press the Done button. Any unwanted clip can be clicked on and deleted by pressing the Delete key.

The method is to go to View > Show Clips (or press CMD + E) and then move the playhead to where you want to split the movie into 2 clips and go to Edit > Split Clip (or press CMD + Y). For some reason, I only thought you could trim the ends of movies with QuickTime 10 (using CMD + T), but recently discovered you can divide the movie up into clips, so you can delete the clips you don't want even if they're in the middle of the movie. Since it's a 32-bit app, I'm trying to get used to using QuickTime 10 to accomplish this same task, since I won't be able to run QuickTime 7 Pro in future macOS versions. Just removing the portions of the movie that I don't want in order to save hard drive space. For years, I've been using QuickTime 7 Pro to trim videos.
