Is there a correlation b/w Error -2048 and MPEG-4 files greater than 2GB?

I am having considerable difficulty in getting any of my DVD/movie files greater than 2GB to upload into my iTunes library. Anyone else having this difficulty? Through another problem, I discovered that iTunes ability to play video is based a thinned-down version of the Apple's QT engine, which prompted me to try and open these files using QT Pro; however, there too, I am getting a peculiar -2048 error suggesting it is not a movie file. The files were created using WONDERSHARE and I am experiencing difficulty with only the files that exceed 2GB in size.
For WONDERSHARE users, here are my relevant settings:
RESOLUTION: 720*400
CODEC: H.264
FPS: 30
KBPS: 2,000 or 2,500 (toggled in between both to manage file size for longer movies, like 3 hour Bollywood epics)
Any help on this matter woudl be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Tabish

Jon,
Thanks for your response. I have inserted commentary below:
I am having
considerable difficulty in getting any of my
DVD/movie files greater than 2GB to upload into my
iTunes library.The 2 GB
restriction is usually on your source file -- the DVD
VOB -- or associated with Fat-32 file system. I have
H.264 files as large as 3.8 GB for SD content.
The file system is NTFS. I am not sure what you mean by DVD VOB.
I discovered that
iTunes ability to play video is based a thinned-down
version of the Apple's QT
engineiTunes can access the
entire QT structure. The iPod and TV players are
limited to a modest QT sub-set.
O.K. But, QT still cannot open the file. If the files are corrupt, how come they only become corrupt at 2+ GB.
however, there too, I
am getting a peculiar -2048 error suggesting it is
not a movie file.If issued by an
Apple application, this error code usually equates to
"noMovieFound" at the referenced location. This could
be a path error or refer to a movie interrupt during
conversion (as when your 2 GB plus source file
terminates prematurely) and the target file is not
closed properly (and is likely not recognized as a
valid QT file).
CODEC:
H.264In which profile?
Again, not sure what you mean by "profile."

Error -2048 and corrupted movies. Help!

I recently transferred several large quicktime movies from one firewire hard drive to another. Now, it appears they were corrupted during the transfer! They display an error -2048 and Quicktime "cannot understand" them.
It's hard to believe that an entire file can be corrupted and beyond repair after moving from one hard drive to another. Is there any program or method I can use to recover or repair them? Thank you

I heard from another forum that there is a way to fix files from the terminal. Does anyone know anything about that? I've got to get these files back...

Error 2048 not a movie file

QT 7 pro was working fine at first.Now when I try to play a video file I get "error 2048 not a movie file. The file plays fine in another player. Also QT will play a QT movie but not a file. I have QT installed on two computers with the exact same problem on both. please help.

Yes the format of the files is windows media video files. They play successfully on real player and on VLC media player.
They were also playing on itunes,but now they won't play on QT or itunes. By play a movie I mean the movie was downloaded as a QT movie. The desktop icon says QTmovie. The files That give the 2048 error have real player on the desktop icon.I have uninstalled and reinstalled, even disabling norton before reinstalling still error 2048 on QT. P.S. Itunes and QT were downloaded as a bundle, whatever the problem is is affecting itunes because now when i add files to library they don't show up.

Premiere Elements - Error 2048 couldn't open file......Question

Windows 8.1
6 gigs of ram
I get the following error when I attempt to open a created file for viewing.
"Error- 2048: Couldn't open file.....not a file Quicktime understands.
I am creating the file in the default NTSC 720 format. I get the same message with trying to wide screen format.
This error seems new as it did not use to happen.
Can someone explain how to correct this error. In researching the problem I came across:
1. trying third party repair software (which doesn't seem to solve the problem.)
2. that the error refers to an error with the movie rendering (as opposed to the audio.)
Been working on this for four hours. Any help is certainly appreciated. Thanks.

What version of Premiere Elements on your Windows 8.1 (assumed 64 bit)? For now I will assume 11, 12, or 13.NT
Please confirm that your export setting from Premiere Elements were
Publish+Share
Computer
QuickTime
with Presets = NTSC DV 16:9
and that you did not customize the settings, just hit save to get your widescreen DV.mov export.
That export should be fully playable with the latest version of QuickTime.
If you confirm that QuickTime player is rejecting it with your error 2048, then uninstall and install QuickTime
with the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled.
a. Try to open the existing DV.mov again in QuickTime
and
b. Create a new DV.mov in Premiere Elements and try to open it in QuickTime.
What are the results from a and b?
We will be watching for your progress.
Thank you.

I'm trying to download the new version of itunes. durig the install i get a message that I need to verify that I have sufficient privilege. Then I get a message of a Windows error 126 and a missing file MSVCR 80.dll. I've tried everything on the support site and nothing works.

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.

Error 36 and External Drive File Copy Problem & USB Connections

In attempting to copy a folder with some 200G+ of files from my iMAC, with OSX 10.6.7, to an external portable WD 1Tb HD, newly formatted to HFS+ (journaled), and connected to the iMAC via a USB cable to the USB port on the iMAC keyboard, I kept getting an error message that Finder could not complete the operation as some data couild not be read or written and transfered, and gave the "Error Code -36". After some searching ont he internet for this error code I came across a host forums discussiong the error code BUT all referred to it being the result of MAC OS hidden "dot-underscore" companioned files being created when the MAC OS X file system copies or moves files to a FAT16 or FAT32 volume. This was not the situaion in my case a both drives were OS X formatted HFS+. Eventually I came across a very vague reference to the error also occuring when the cable connection with the external HD was not solid. I reconnected my external HD and attempted the file transfer again - with the same result. Eventually I decided to plug the external HD into a USB pot on the back of the iMA itself, rather than the keyboard set. Sure enough the error issue disappeared - the transfer successfully completed.
So my question relates to the "usb connection" challenge with iMAC. the iMAC has only 4 USB ports on the back directly. I did have two desktop external HDs plugged into 2 of these USB ports at the back of the iMAC, as well as a WACOM pad device into the 3rd, and an EPSON 3880 printer into the 4th, and so was forced to employ the ports ont he keyboard for portable HD. So - what's the answer in a situation where the 4 are insufficient and it would appear that the keyboard ports seemed to be unpowered?? Any suggestions?

It's actually a Time Machine backup drive which is formatted in Mac OS Extended (Journaled). I wish I'd copied the exact error message.
I believe it was something to the effect of "Error 36: The file could not be copied because some of the date could be be read/written" or something along those lines. Next time it comes up I'll copy it. I have Drive Genius running with DrivePulse, but it doesn't ever seem to start.
My biggest concern is that this is a sign that the drive is failing. When backing up, it also slows, or stops midway through and just hangs there. Though I haven't done a lot of extensive testing on that because if the drive is failing, I don't want to speed that process up any more.
To add to the complication, there is a second external drive which Time Machine is also backing up for me. There is one particular file, the Virtual Machine file, I was trying to get off the other external drive and it produced the same problem. That's when I went into Time Machine to try and retrieve the file that way and it did the same thing. The other external drive is making some sounds, but it doesn't sound like a distinct clicking, more like a more pronounced version of the normal constipated hard-drive sound. The Time Machine drive, isn't making any obviously strange sounds at all.
So, I can't tell whether the drives are failing or if it could actually be that particular file itself causing some strange problems.

Does this mean that one row in KAPOL has to be changed from within SAP?
Or could it be an error/bug within R3load?

Error in VL01N(Delivery qty is greater than target qty while taking return)

Hi Experts,
I am facing a problem "Delivery Quantity is greater than the target quantity" while doing the inbound delivery from VL01N t-code for sales returns with reference to return order.
I am trying to do the inbound delivery for the same Quantity which is in return order but still it is showing error.
I have checked my configuration and could not find any mistake under this process. I am not able to identify the error. In my delivery item category we have put "B" under over delivery check which is our business requirement.
If I remove "B" from delivery item category, i am not getting any error in inbound delivery but which is not right way of doing.
I could not find suitable query in SDN. Can any one please share your expertise to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance,
Regards
Srinivas

You have to check the following:-
a) whether for that return delivery, picking is not activated
b) whether customer master or material master is maintained for over delivery tolerance
c) whether in VD51, any overdelivery tolerance is maintained
You can also have a look at the following notes:-
1) Note 151901 - Check of delivery quantity is consistent
2) Note 322588 - VLSP:incor.checks for qty to be delvrd during split
thanks

Error -2048 and beyond...

Hello everybody,
I've got a very simple question, and I hope the Apple employees will be paying the required attention and thought to the question I'm about the ask:
Why do we, the iPod movie customers, have to struggle so much on finding the right way to convert common movie files (.avi, .mpeg, .mov) to the only two formats that iPod actually supports (MP4 and M4U)?
Just a suggestion - if your product only supports one or two uncommon formats, why not make it easier on the consumer and give him the software which does the basic operation of converting the most common formats to the one or two being supported by iPod.
Why letting the consumer spend another $25-30 on the software on top of what he spent on the product itself?
If anybody here can enlighten me with some new updates regarding the conversion softwares, please do...

"Why do we, the iPod movie customers, have to struggle so much on finding the right way to convert common movie files (.avi, .mpeg, .mov) to the only two formats that iPod actually supports (MP4 and M4U)?"
Nothing common about the .AVI container. Thousands of combinations of audio and video codecs. Use third party convertors on that format for better success in your export.
General rule is that it must first play in the QuickTime Player before it can be exported.
No one from Apple will respond in these Discussions pages. These pages are "peer to peer".
The iPod supports dozens of formats as long as they meet the "specs" used on your particular device.
http://www.apple.com/ipod/specs.html
Open a MPEG 1 file and it will "play" with QuickTime. The "Pro" upgrade can't (never did) export any audio from these muxed track formats. Use third party software to convert your MPEG-1 files.
MPEG-2 (format of most DVD's) also requires third party software help. QuickTime doesn't "play" DVD's.
MPEG Streamclip (free) can convert many of these files to QT formats that can be used on your iPod. It even has an MPEG-4 "preset" export feature that is foolproof.
Non commercial (not "Hollywood") DVD's can be converted via the Apple MPEG-2 Playback Component and the tool mentioned above.
iTunes also includes a "video" to iPod conversion feature. Since iTunes is free you may not have needed to spend any money on your "conversions". Just drag your video to iTunes and set your preferences for the proper conversion format.

HT1449 Is there a way to "Organize Library" and *move* the files, rather than *copy* them?

I was trying to move my iTunes Library from the old iTunes Music folder to a new-style iTunes Media folder.
The Organize Library command wants to copy my 219 GB library. Is there any way to do the same thing but move the files instead? There's no way I'm going to be able to free enough space to make a copy of my whole library, and I would really rather not move the whole thing to an external drive, just to move it all back to the proper folder on my internal drive.

Let's recap.
Your iTunes media library is in an old school layout, library in the usual location of <User>/Music/iTunes containing a media folder called iTunes Music. You have updated the iTunes preference for the media folder to <User>/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media but, as expected, most if not all your media is still on the old path. And you want to rearrange your library to the current layout.
Correct? If so then the following steps will sort out your library:
Change the media folder preference back to <User>/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music. Close & then reopen iTunes.
Use File (iTunes?) > Library > Organize Library > Rearrange files in the folder "iTunes Music" to get iTunes using the new internal structure for the media folder. Ignore if this option is grayed out, you've already done it.
(Sorry, I'm a PC user so a bit hazy on precise layout of Mac menus)
Use File (iTunes?) > Library > Organize Library > Consolidate files to pull in copies of any files that made it into the iTunes Media folder or are scattered elsewhere.
Delete the now redundant folder iTunes Media.
Close iTunes, rename iTunes Music as iTunes Media, start iTunes, check under iTunes > Preferences > Advanced that the media folder preference has automatically updated to .../iTunes Media, correct if required.
(Optional). Close iTunes, rename the library file iTunes Library as iTunes Library.itl then click the icon to start iTunes and immediately press and hold down option. When prompted to choose or create a library click choose and browse to the renamed file.
I could have suggested using Doug's script Re-locate Selected but the process above is much more efficient. You could use this however at step 3 to avoid the temporary duplication of the files from iTunes Media or housekeeping for any other files stored ourside of the iTunes Music folder.

Is there a clearer video tutorial on zooming and panning in on clip than this?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_0kt60VAyb8&feature=related
This is sort of helpful, but despite over thre hours work, I cannot get my clip to do what I want.
I need Video Tutorials, not text instruction. i'm dyslexic and simply see gobbldeegupe when looking at written instructions.
Thanks, everyone.
This is the clip in question...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t6LWzo5n_sg
I want to zoom in to avoid seeing my lady at right of screen, who basically stopped acting in the scene. The zoom in will be effective anyway, since we are zooming in on an annoyed man. The image would need to zoom in, but not the center of the image. So a pan up also needs to be applied.

That Tutorial covers the basic mechanics of a Pan & Zoom with Keyframes on the Fixed Effects>Motion>Scale (Zoom) and Motion>Position (Pan).
The next step is to learn about Interpolation in Keyframes, where one can adjust how things appear. The Keyframes, that the author used were Linear, so they start at full-speed and end at full-speed. Through Interpolation, one can adjust how the motions begin and end. The Help File covers Keyframe Interpolation ver well, and as there are quite a few choices, with different results, is important when one chooses to alter Interpolation.
What aspects would you like more detail on?
Only thing that I saw, that I would have included, would have been near the end, when the author click-drags on the last Keyframes, one at a time. That can be done, but one can also Lasso the Keyframes, and drag them all together. I'd have shown each way. I would also have shown the "scrubby" characteristic of the numerical coordinate box, as that can be useful too. Many operations in PrPro have more than one way to do things, and to cover each, does make a better tutorial.
Let us know what else could/should be added, or where you are having an issue.
Good luck,
Hunt
PS - rather than the graphical change in Position, that the author used, I usually rely on the numbers, but there is nothing wrong with the graphical method - just personal choice and how one likes to work.

Is there a correlation b/w Error -2048 and MPEG-4 files greater than 2GB?
