Audio but no video for Quicktime in Safari-help?

When I open a Quicktime file in Safari, only the audio will play---blank screen for video. I can play the video in an AOL browser, but not Safari-this only started with the newest upgrade . Anyone else have this problem? Thanks for any solution.

Thanks again, QuickTimeKirk.
I think the audio rate was to blame. I changed the audio format in QuickTime Player 7 Pro from (I think) Linear PCM to AAC and the kbps number from the default value 128 to 64. Then I changed the mark for the video rate from automatic to the option of setting a limit and set a suitable limit. That way I was able to control the total kbit/second rate for the exported .mov file so that it got a reasonable size.
When I compare the source .flv file with the produced .mov file for the case when they have about the same total kbit/second rate, I can see that the .mov file is smoother or has less detail than the .flv file although the difference is not big. Increasing the video rate limit in QuickTime Player 7 Pro causes a bigger .mov file with better quality to be produced.

  • Audio but no video for .mov file.

    For Windows XP (Home Edition 5.1.26700 Service Pack 3 Build 2600):
    My QuickTime Player 7.6.6 shows a window but the window is empty only the audio is present.
    The same or similar is the case in VLC, RealPlayer, and DivX Player.
    Additional information from my Mac OS X:
    - The .mov file plays perfectly on my iMac in my QuickTime Player 10.0(114).
    - Cmd-I reports for the .mov file: codecs: H264,AAC.
    - The file is produced by AddMovie version 1.8.6 from a .flv file and the developer states:
    ’AddMovie uses Mac OS technology "out of the box" so to speak. In other words all it does is call system functions that in turn call the codecs installed on your system to do their job. I don't write any codecs (i.e. compressor/decompressors - i.e. exporters/importers) - other third party developers do that. So, getting the output of AddMovie to be compliant for other software depends on your choice of these third party add-ons, and the selection of them in the preferences window.‘
    - Perian 1.2.1 and Flip4Mac 2.3.4.1 are installed.
    - VLC version 1.1.2 is installed and it plays the .mov file with audio but no video like QuickTime Player in Windows.

  • .m4b files play audio but no video in QuickTime

    I recently upgraded to Lion, after which QuickTime no longer displays the video with my .m4b files.  It plays the audio fine, but none of the video slides that are in the files. I spent time on the phone with tech support, and all they could suggest was using another media player such as VLC.  But that doesn't answer the questions as to why QuickTime no longer plays the video in .m4b files.  Does anyone else experience this?

    I have found the solution - forget about QuickTime, use NicePlayer,
       Download NicePlayer for Mac - Play DVDs and QuickTime movies. MacUpdate.com

  • Chromebook flash player works except at IMDB, plays audio but not video for movie trailers.

    Using Flash version 15.0.0.189.
    14 q039 Chromebook
    I have been using my new HP Chromebook for a couple of weeks now.  Very trouble free and fast, with little bloatware.  This leaves me with time to pursue funny little inconvenient glitches like trying to figure out why I have audio and a black video screen in native (small) and full screen modes at IMDB (Internet Movie Data Base).  Yes, I tried their FAQ and the Adobe FAQ without a resolution.
    I am an old mouse who knows that somebody above the maze that I am in, will know exactly where the cheese is.

    I'm having the same problem on both windows and mac OS. This seems to be a bug because QT 7.6.5 plays them fine on either machine, but QT 7.6.6 does not. I have over 2000 files encoded using h264 which played perfectly before the upgrade. I tried logging in under a different user which does Not work. I notice also when I view them in the finder window there is no poster frame, only the letters MPEG4 under the quicktime logo
    I hope this is an easy fix. I don't want to re-encode all those files and upload them to my web gallery.
    Help!
    Thanks

  • .MOV files from iphone - audio but no video in QuickTime

    iphone 3gs, latest DirectX and Quicktime. Downloaded .mov files from iphone don't play correctly in QuickTime. The audio is there but there is no video, just a black screen.
    I tried switching the video to "safe mode". This does show the video, but its terribly choppy and unwatchable.
    I believe something changed recently with an update to itunes or QuickTime. Any ideas?
    Thanks.

    How do I get this file to play?
    By installing the proper video codec component if available as advised by application. See the video "Format:" entry in finder "Info", QT "Inspector", or "Property" window. Basically you must have the same playback decoder installed on your second machine as was used to encode the video the first. Sounds as if the component configurations on the two machines are not the same.

  • HT201335 Hi I have an Apple TV Gen 2 and an iphone 4S.  I am able to see the Airplay icon on my iphone however when i press it there is no mirroring slider button. I have latest software on both devices. I can only here audio but no video for real racing

    Has anyone experienced same issue?

    I have read of others having had this button dissapear. Apparently if you totally shut the pad down and reboot it will then reappear.
    Hope that helps

    H.264 video should be supported by your basic Snow Leopard operating system. The DVCPRO HD family of codecs is part of the Apple "Pro" codecs package which is normally installed as part of a "Pro" video editing suite installer or contemporaneously installed separately as part of one of the newer pro editing apps like FCPX. if you already have one of these pro suites or apps installed or available, then re-install the correct codec package that is missing. If not, you will need to purchase a Pro suite or app to be able to install the required codec package.

  • Video clips have perfect audio but no picture in Quicktime, VLC has perfect audio and jittery picture... How is this fixed?

    I have a Canon 550D and a class 6 Sandisk extreme 3 card which I have been taking great photos and film clips.
    Yesterday I captured some content and when I put it into my macbook pro, the images were clear as per usual however the videos only appeared to play the audio in aperture 3 and also in quicktime.
    I then tried the videos in VLC and it had perfect audio once again but with picture this time. This picture quality seemed to freeze.be jittery.
    Has anyone had/fixed this before..?? The content I have captured was of a once off opportunity for work...

    hi,
    thanks. i already have that. wmp 9 for the mac. (i forgot to post that in my list.)
    every darn thing i have does the same thing.
    audio but not video
    i clicked on "open in rosetta" for flip4mac and now it does open once more but the same...no video.
    i don't understand why nothing is working.
    do i have to upgrade fliprmac and buy it to make it work? i am not going to do that tho.
    this is really frustrating.
    i'm curious - suppose i send it to you - unless i can put it here somehow - and see if you can
    open and listen and watch?
    i tried it on my ibook and the same thing happened.

  • Audio but no Video on a Quicktime ".mov" file

    I captured a clip from my video camera, which is HDV 1080i60, using Final Cut Pro HD. I can play my video clip on my G5 , in Quicktime, but when I try to play the video on my MacBook Pro I get a white screen and just the audio plays. I tried importing the clip into iMovie HD on the laptop and get the same results... audio but no video.
    I tried downloading and re-installing Quicktime 7.1.2, and NOTHING! Same thing still happens!
    Any help would bre GREATLY appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Ezi

    Tried what you mentioned in the last post. I checked the Quicktime folder in both machines and they match exactly.
    As an experiment, I tried copying the contents of the Quicktime folder of the G5 to the MacBook pro after re-installing Quicktime 7.1.2 again... and NOTHING! Still get just a blank white screen and audio.
    When I do the "Get info" from Quicktime, it tells me the format is: HDV 1080i60
    I really thought copying the contents, ALL the contents, was really going to do it! I'm losing my mind at this point!
    Again, thank you so much for the help... In the meantime, I will endeavor to persevere!

    ...Here you can see "TV OUT", where it says "widescreen" make sure is ON.
    I have my iPad Video set to "widescreen", but it didn't make a difference when I briefly tried it with a HDMI connection from my iPad2 to my Samsung TV.  The video was letterboxed as was the iPad homepage when it was displayed on my big TV. 
    I didn't try a streaming video so I don't know if that would be letterboxed or not.  I do have a movie on my iPad and I'll give it a try (perhaps tomorrow).  If it isn't letterboxed, I'll post it here.
    Overall (at least via HDMI), I was very unimpressed with the process.  The picture seemed washed out and the resolution certainly suffered.  I don't remember what my test video was, but the results were what one would expect with a SD signal.  At this moment I don't see any serious usage of this process for me.

  • Audio but no video on .mov files

    I'm trying to watch a tutorial disc (working with Ableton Live). The video files are .mov, the disc comes with the install for Quicktime 7.03. I have Quicktime Pro 7.12. When I try to play the video files, I get audio but no video.
    When I try to play the files in VLC Player, I get video but an audio error (and no audio)...
    Anyone familiar with this issue (I've searched the forums and found similar issues, but nothing the same as this...)?

    Nothing about Sorenson 3 (video track) AAC (audio) or Apple BMP (image format layer) that would keep the file from playing on your machine.
    Do you open these .mov files directly from the CD (double click) or is there some app that is used from the CD to play them?
    Try a double click and test the files while logged in under a different user account.

  • I get audio but no video unless I play the file from UTube

    I get audio but no video unless I play the file from UTube

    Use a different browser?
    Firefox (from Mozilla)
    Opera (from Opera)
    Safari (from Apple)
    Chrome (from Google)
    ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in.
    Even if it's just to redownload the driver. I recommend another browser.

  • Blu Ray Burned in Encore CS4 play audio but no video

    I've burned this project multiple times and everytime I get the menus and the audio, but no video when played on a Blu Ray player. The same disc plays fine in computer/laptop. And when I tried a shorter version of the project (10 minutes vs. an hour and a half for the original) it plays fine everywhere. Could the file size be causing my disc not to play in a BD-R player? Then why would it play on a computer/laptop?
