I can´t see QuickTime videos in Firefox, Chrome and Safari

Hi! why I can´t see QuickTime videos in my navigators? I have the application installed in my mac, QuickTime 10.0, what can I do? please! Thanks.

I just posted this same issue just minutes ago, no replies huh?
On Safari, it works fine for me. But not on Firefox.

Video Stutters, Freezes, Gaps, and Silence (QT conversions)

I've been having trouble with some videos on my iPod and my computer. On certain files, so far on those more TV show length or more, about every 30 secs the video freezes for a bit, then continues but without audio. This has happened only on the iPod, in iTunes they might barely freeze but audio continues with video normally and mostly with non-iTunes videos, mostly encoded in QT. Another problem I've been having is that MPEGs and AVIs downloaded on computer have no audio track according to QT but when played the audio workes fine. Obviously the converted video doesn't have the audio either. Both these issues have a been a major concern and annoyance, though I'm not sure how much is the iPods fault or QT's. I'm thinking the stutter is due to coflicting format, maybe corruption, or inferior tech on the iPod. Thanks.

Time Capsule Video Stuttering in OSX and not Windows Vista/7

Hi,
I have a MacBook 1.6 GHz D-core. I store all my video content on my Time Capsule, 500GB. Whenever I try to stream a video over the network, via TC, it stutters. Whether that be SD or HD content.
When I try to stream the same content on Vista or Windows 7 I have zero problems.
The suttering happends about every 15 seconds and seems like it skips a frame or two. The audio cuts out as well but it's less than a second long and the video goes back to normal. It wouldn't be a big issue however it happends about 3-4 times a minute and I find it annoying.
I'm not sure why I have no issues on Vista/7 but have problems with OSX. Any advice?

Recording User Events (such as pauses) during Quicktime video watching?

Hi everyone,
There's likely to be some way to do this but I spent 1 hour googling and couldn't find anything useful so I thought I'd give this a shot in case any of you have any hints or advice!
I'm interested in embedding a Quicktime video in a webpage and having a client stream it. I want to be able to detect when the client pauses or stops the video, when the client restarts the video, etc. Essentially I'd love to be able to log data every time the user triggers some event (such as by clicking the pause button). I know one can trigger different events using sprites, but I think those are only for inside the Quicktime video itself, not for catching events on the player (such as hitting the pause or stop button).
If anyone knows how this might be possible to do, I'd love to hear about it. I think the Mac OS X server might have some related capabilities, but it's about $500 which is above my budget limit. (I need this capability for a side project)
Thanks a lot!

Have you installed any applications to your n95-4 (n958GB) phone, and installed it to either phone or mass memory? The problem only starts occuring after installing applications to phone or mass memory.
I am not sure if the issue starts after an application is isntalled on phone memory or mass memory.
I have duplicated this issue and IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE N95-4. I duplicated the issue on 2 NOKIA N95-4's. If you install an application, lets say for example youtube for mobile and Yahoo GO on phone memory; the video recording will start to pause every 3 or 5 seconds. This only happens when mass memory is used.
The pausing will not occur if you switch to phone memory. There is no fix and I hope nokia is aware of this problem and hopefully they are working on a fix. I hope the next firmware update will include the fix.

How to open and burn some QuickTime videos?

A friend uploaded some Quicktime videos for me and I've tried to save them to my desktop by using file>save as. But then, the desktop icon won't open, and I haven't a clue as to how to burn them even if I could play them:-(
TIA!!

If you use a DVD and burn it all you will be doing is copying the movie file. You will not be able to play it on your DVD player (if that's what you want to do). To recode the movie to play on a player or through DVD Player on your Mac you need a program like Toast Titanium. Other than that you can insert a blank DVD into the optical drive and burn a copy of the movie.

Can I synchronize and playback two different quicktime videos?

I have some quicktime video from my iphone that I would like to view side-by-side on my computer using Quicktime. Is there a way to have two separate quicktime movies play back synchronized so that if I stop one video, it stops the other? I also want to be able to go frame-by-frame and have both movies stay in lock step.
Basically I am trying to analyze my golf swing. I have a good swing and a bad swing on video with the same club and I have pretty consistent tempo. I want to be able to play back both swings and see if I can figure out what I am doing in one, but not the other.
I tried to search for this but without success. Thanks for any advice on how to do this. I am using QTPro 7.7.1 on Windows 7 Professional

Well, both frame rates should be the same since the video was taken on my iPhone 4s
"Should be?" I tend to use camcorders rather than mobile phones for video recording. In the past I have found the frame rates less than consistent. However, I do not have an iPhone 4S and so I have no personal experience in this area. In the past the iPhone usually described the recording frame rate as "up to 30 fps." The iPhone 4S says "at 30 fps" so maybe they have improved frame rate consistency—but I'll still stick to a camcorder.
When I trimmed the files I also did a "save as" and not just a save so I don't know what else I should have done prior to merging the files.
Basically, I have found that a frame rate of 29.97 (NTSC) trimmed randomly from two separate files can vary in frame alignment due to the variations in the location of the dropped frame used to average the frame rate to a non-integer value. In addition, the presence of a timecode track in one of the files to be merged can also create synchronization problems depending on your specific work flow. (I.e., in such cases I normally create an new player, copy the file without a timecode track, and then extract the secondary video track for merging to the "new" player or re-compress trimmed files so they have common start start frame and drop frame points.) There may may be other potential problems but these are the most common ones for me.
Here is an example of one of my "comparison" files. In this case, I am comparing an H.264 track video track against a ProRes 4-2-2 video track containing the same material.

What can I do to improve a blurry quicktime video that was SMS'd to me it is a 1.24MB .mov file and I have QuicktimePro. It was taken on an Iphone but I am not sure with what software.

What can I do to improve a blurry Quicktime video that was SMS' texted to me? I think it was taken on an Iphone and it was sent to me as a 1.24MB .mov file and I have Quicktime Pro if that helps. I REALLY need to make this as clear as possible, the audio is good, video is blurry. Here is some additional data:

anything I can even try? Sender is off the grid? I don't need a production ready copy just viewable?
You can rescale (stretch) the size of the display but this will only make it blurier and/or introduce pixellation. When the file was encoded at a lower resolution much of the original data was thrown away to make the file smaller. This data is gone/missing and cannot be recreated from what is left. What you've got is all you have to work with. Any filters you can apply will require re-compressing the file again which will likely introduce more artifacts and increase the size of the file without really improving its overasll quality.

I made a duplicate copy of an imovie HD project and when I updated the titles on the copy, the video stuttered . I'm using Snow Leopard OSX. The length of the movie increased unexpedtedly too.

I made a duplicate of an imovie HD project so I could have two different versions. I tried making the copies both by using File> Duplicate and the Save As command in imovie.
When I changed the title on the copy, the video stuttered when I played it back. Also the overall length of the movie increased by about 6 seconds throwing off some sync even though the replacement title was exactly the same length in seconds and frames as the one I replaced.
any thoughts how to fix this?
I'm using OSX 10.6.8.
thanks.

*24 December 2009*
*Dear Mac Users:*
Hello. Thanks to AppleMan1958 for answering my question about how to edit an iMovie project
on another computer.
Here is a question related to the process of transferring the iMovie '09 project file from my friend's
computer to an external drive so that I can edit that project in iMovie '09 on my MacBook Pro:
How do I know if my Smart Disk FireLite portable external drive is formatted to MAC OS X Extended (journaled)? How I do format this Smart Disk FireLite USBFLB80C to MAC OS X Extended (journaled)?
When I connect the Smart Disk FireLite to my MacBook Pro via USB, open iMovie '09, and select View
Events By Disk or rather "Group Events By Disk," an icon for the FireLite external drive appears, but there is a yellow triangle with a black exclamation mark on the icon for the external drive. What does this "warning" mean? There are MP3s of music on the same external drive and they open just fine in iTunes. The one iMovie project file that is already on the drive will not open up in iMovie.
So, how do I properly format this external drive in order to transfer an iMovie project file from my friend's computer so that I can edit it on my MacBook Pro using iMovie '09?
Sincerely,
Corey

Quicktime video looks different in Firefox and Safari, is there a fix?

My full problem is described in this thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=4451761
but to keep it simple, my immediate issue is that Safari and Firefox are displaying my video differently. Firefox appears darker and Safari appears brighter. With my monitor set to a gamma of 1.8 (default for OS X) Firefox looks perfect and Safari looks washed out, and with my monitor set to 2.2 (Windows default and all-together better looking) Firefox is too dark and Safari is perfect.
All I want to know is WHY they look different and how to fix this.

Thanks for your response. While this may work with audio and video originating from your own computer it doesn't seem to effect audio and video viewed from the Firefox 5.01 browser which uses a QuickTime plugin. Audio and Video viewed from Safari and Firefox 3.6.19 work fine which leads me to believe the QT plugin and Firefox 5 browser are not working correctly.

Quicktime video (.mov file) will not load and play in Firefox 3.6.16

I have a computer with Firefox 3.6.16 installed that will not play Quicktime videos (.mov files) in the browser. This is a desktop computer.
Another computer (laptop) with exactly the same version of Firefox installed will load and play them perfectly in the Quicktime player.
Both computers have Quicktime addin 7.6.9.0 installed and designated as the default application for Quicktime movies.
Both computers play the videos correctly in IE 8.
When attempting to play the video in Firefox, the player window opens and attempts to load the video, but soon seems to freeze leaving a black window open where the player should be.
From what I have observed, this seems to be a problem related specifically to this computer, and since the video plays in IE I have ruled out the firewall blocking loading from the site.

Hi, I've exactly the same problem, 'cept I've XP Pro. When I say exactly, I mean the format used is HDV 1080i60, along with everything else there.
And I'm right there with you. Why Quicktime can't play a natively encoded HDV Quicktime file (using Final Cut Pro), is beyond me, but basically, I've used K-Lite Codec Pack, and Quicktime. Neither work, although Quicktime does ask for internet connectivity to download resources or something similar (I don't have Internet Access at home). I've used VLC on a friend's PC, and, while it works, there is a very strange, and irritating flicker where there's heavy movement
Where can I get the resource needed, as another party needs to view the clip, and they already have it. So if they can update their codec library or similar, then that would be much better (as I wouldn't need to upload a FullHD Video again)
thanks

Problems transferring videos to iPhone, iTunes and now QuickTime

So I wanted to add a video to my iPhone 4S, but iTunes would not allow this, as the "file could not be played on this iPhone". After reading a few threads about this, I tried adding the video to iTunes to see if it appeared under "home videos" or "recently added", and then convert it, so it would be watchable on my iPhone, but nothing happened. After reading some other discussions where someone said you should open the video in QuickTime and export it to iTunes, I tried that, but QuickTime says "the movie's file format isn't recognized". I tried this with .mov, .mp4, .avi, and so on, but QuickTime doesn't want any file format. The files open and play in VLC just fine.
What's the problem here? Once I think I have the solution, there's another problem, and I'm starting to get pretty angry with this.
Mac OSX 10.7.5., iPhone 4S: IOS 5.1.1., iTunes 11.0.1. (12), QuickTime: 10.1., if anyone's wondering.

Has to be synced. But you can change it so that only the ones checked will sync. Go into iTunes with your iPhone connected and scroll through the tabs. There will be an option to sync only the checked media. So uncheck the ones you do not want.
There is no drag feature available for iPhone like there is for iPod. It has to sync to folders and playlists

Question mark on quicktime videos and links

Question mark on quicktime videos and links. Anyone have a clue about this one

That video presentation is great for Mac OS, but not
XP. Doesn`t happen on all sites, so is the problem my
end or the other?
What is exactly your problem?
If you see a question when you visit a site where a QuickTime movie is embedded, there are possibilities. One is that there is a link made to the QuickTime, and QuickTime cannot access it. The second possibility which most people have is that you don't have an appropriate decoder for the QuickTime video. I only responded to the first case. And the second case is discussed several times a day.
