Avi file from PC user has audio but not video

When I play a .AVI file from a PC user through Quicktime pro, I am getting no video, but can hear the file fine.
Any ideas what may be wrong?
Playing it on a PC gives full video & audio
Cheers
Justin

Using VLC is about as simple as it gets and if that will not play the avi they are encoded in a very rare codec. One last thing you can do is open the avi in QT Player and open MovieInfo in the Window menu. If it says they are encoded with an Indeo codec then there is no way to play them in OS X. There are Indeo codecs for the Classic environment but none for OS X. Indeo codecs for Classic

What site are you trying to watch? I just tested 3. The you tube app streams from the pad to apple tv fine, as long as the source video format is ok. Checked a site called funny or die.com. Most of the videosmthere stream to apple tv fine. A few have a different format, and do audio only. Netflix does not stream at all, but you can get to netflix directly from apple tv. Whether or not it streams is directly related to the format of the video. Some do, some dont.

I deleted by accident an avi file from my ipad. I'm not close to the pc where I can connect to my itunes. How can I retrieve it? Ipads don't have trash cans?

You can't. You'll have to connect to your PC.

Burned dvd has audio but no video

Anyone ever have this problem: Burned a DVD from imovie and it works on the mac. When trying to play on dvd player, it has sound but no video. Anyone?

First thing you might do is in iDVD, use the menu option to "Delete encoded assetts" in case the previous garbage from the last project or burn is messing things up. If that doesn't work here are my standard list of things I do when I have issue or even just before I go to burn a new project...
Run Cache Out X (free download) to clear all system and application caches.
Run MacJanitor (free download) to do all the Unix Cron Maintenance scripts.
Run Disk Utility (Applications -> Utilities) and repair disk permissions on your start up drive (typically your internal drive). Also verify any other drives mounted on the system.
Run Preferential Treatment (free download) to check for corrupt/damaged application and system preference files.
Reboot your Mac.

Getting audio but not video during playback using Airplay-

I'm using my iPad 3 to stream content from my Amazon Prime video account the via Airplay to my Apple TV. I'm getting the audio, but not the video. Are these units capable of doing what I'm trying to do, do I have to set up certain settings to do this? Help!!!

How do you know or find out if that's indeed what they're doing of if something is after all technically awry?

Flash player 11.6.602.180 plays audio but not video...

Very similar to problems reported by others. Just started recently... flash player on Win 7 and IE 10 plays audio but no video... just black box or blank.
Have reinstalled flash player several times... including following all clean install instructions several times. Installation completes and and tells me it's installed successfully.
Have carefully matched IE settings to allow activeX content and have enabled the flash player object and turned on active scripting for all zones, etc. Still no video.
Going to the flash verification page shows a blank box where the current installed version should be.
If I look in control panel under Flash Player it tells me the activeX version is 11.6.602.180 and that the plug in is "Not Installed"... could that be the problem?
What can I do to fix this? Thanks in advance for any help.

FCPX has audio but no video

Videos play fine in QTPro but when loaded into FCPX there is no video. What's going on here?
I just downloaded FCPX on a new MacbookPro ( MAC OS X Lion 10.7.1, quad core I7). FCPX is version 10.0.1 configured with most current updates. Videos have .mov extension and are DV 720 x 480 and were created in FCP 6 in when converting VHS to digital. Vids play just fine in QuickTime Pro on the MacBook. No prior version of FCP was present on the new computer. I'm pulling out what little hair I have left so any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I'm having exactly the same problem; it happens on every file I import regardless of file size. I've tried it on some quite small files (1 minute of AVCHD footage imported from DSLR, for example). It also happens on imported .mov files. The symptoms are:
1. Thumbnail image is visible in event browser
2. Audio waveform is visible in event browser
3. Skimming plays audio but there's nothing but a gray background in the canvas/viewer
4. Placing the playhead in the middle of the clip and pressing the spacebar to play results in an extended beachball (at least 30 seconds for even a short clip) followed by the appearance of a black video image in the canvas/viewer plus the audio playing normally.
I called AppleCare about this and we walked through some diagnostics; nothing fixed the problem, but creating a new test account on the Mac DOES result in the problem going away. Following this determination, I:
1. Deleted FCPX and all its projects, events, folders, and preferences
2. Booted to safe mode
3. Rebooted to user mode
4. Repaired disk permissions
5. Reinstalled FCPX from the App store.
No effect; the problem is still there. Clearly something about my user account settings, or something about other software installed, is causing the problem. However I cannot figure out what it is.

I need to delete files from my iMac hard drive, but not from my other devices (that are sync. to iCloud). How do I do this?? My Mac is a 24-inch Mid 2007 running on Mountain Lion. Thanks for your help.

I have recently recieved messages indicating that my start up disc is almost full. Consequently I need to remove some files from my hard drive. I've backed up my hard drive onto a NAS system & onto an external harddrive. The problem now, is that whenever I try to delete a file, a message comes up saying that if I remove this file from my hard disc it will remove it from all my other devices that are syn. to it. How do I remove a file (movies) from my iMac but not from other devices.
Thanks for your help
Robert

You're right - this question has nothing to do with iSync!
You're best bet would be to buy yourself an external Firewire or USB 2.0 hard-disk. There's no way you'll get 150gb onto an 80gb drive - certainly not in an instantly accessible way.
Your new Mac would've had the Migration Assistant appear during the initial OS install. This allows you to connect your new and old Mac together via a Firewire cable and automatically transfer your important files from old Mac to new.
Once you've all the files off your old Mac, re-format it and re-install the OS that came with it. If you boot up the Mac from the OS install DVD, there is an option to re-format the HD and install the OS.

Android kitkat issue in loading swf file from device. URL found but not working

Hi,
I am facing one issue from a very long time regarding file access in Android Kitkat version 4.4.*. I have developed Adobe Air player application for android and it is working as expected below kitkat version but not on kitkat.
I am following this methods -
NativeApplication.nativeApplication.addEventListener(InvokeEvent.INVOKE, onInvoke);
public function onInvoke(event:InvokeEvent):void
                                    var newFile:String = String(event.arguments[0]);
                                    trace("Received new file from Android: "+newFile)
Received URL form device in Android Kitkat -
/storage/emulated/0/.iProfData/swf/playListFiles/ContentCreation/Ma_V2_522/en/Animation/27 031_1_Welcome screen.swf
file:////storage/emulated/0/.iProfData/swf/playListFiles/ContentCreation/Ma_V2_522/en/Anim ation/27031_1_Welcome screen.swf
                - Loading this URL using loader class in AS3 AIR but not working.
file%3A///storage/emulated/0/.iProfData/swf/playListFiles/ContentCreation/Ma_V2_522/en/Ani mation/27031_1_Welcome%20screen.swf
       - Have used also by doing escape character but still it is not working showing file not found both SWF and mp4 case. (Mp4 case NetStream.Play.FileNotFound)
By using the above methods I can have swf or mp4 video url but when I am loading it, It is not working giving error message "File not found/ IO Error". I have read that if use escape character then it will work but I have used escape character also but it is not working.
Humble request you to please advise how can I solve this issue.
Best regards,
Sunil Kumar

Starting in KitKat, Google requires that applications have permission to access files on the system. You must specifically add either the READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE or WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permissions in order to access files. Adding either one of those permissions should let you read/access files on the device. Prior to KitKat, you didnt have to have these permissions listed in the manifest to access files.

Avi file imports into Premiere CS5.5 but not CS6

I'm trying to move a project from CS5.5 to CS6. I have several SD avi files that CS6 says can't be imported because they're "damaged or un-supported". After several experiments I found -
1) The existing CS5.5 project works fine.
2) A new CS5.5 project can import the files that fail in CS6.
3) The files play fine in Windows Media Player.
4) Removing Media Cache and Preview files had no effect on the issue.
I'm running Premiere 6.0.3 (most recent Cloud version) on 64-bit Windows 7.

Exactly what is inside the files?

Burned dvd plays audio but not video

I just completed the first part of a wedding video and it burned fine. I just finished the second part and it looks and plays fine in imovie and idvd preview. However when I burn it and try to play it the dvd will only play the audio. the dvd starts like it's going to be fine, but the video stalls on the first frame and the audio continues. does anyone have any suggestions. I am trying to avoid starting over, but I don't know what else to do. I tried eliminating the first clip in case it was corrupt, but that didn't help.

Problem: Exporting audio, but not video

After exporting my finished movie, some clips are gone but others play just fine. The audio for the missing clips is perfectly intact, but the video is just gone! Instead I get a still image from the previous clip with the missing clip's audio acting as a voiceover. I need to finish this project by next week, so please respond quickly.

Be sure the video clips you are using have the correct codec. I had this problem, re-exported my video using the H.264 codec and it worked find.
Good luck!

Front Row plays audio but not video of MP4 H264 AAC files

SL 10.6.6
Here's the problem:
Take an MP4 movie file encoded with H264 and AAC thats plays with no problems in QT, iTunes, Front Row
Open this file in QT7Pro, add a mask using a GIF file then export as MP4 using video and audio pass through to avoid re-encoding
The new video file plays OK in QT and iTunes but only plays the audio track in Front Row - the video is just presented as a blank screen
This happens to every file i've tried it with.
I've tried trashing all front row caches/prefs/app support folders, installing/uninstalling/re-installing perian. i've tried changing the file extension to .mov .m4v .3gp - still the same problem the file plays perfectly except in Front Row
All the posts I can find on this topic seem to refer to subtitles causing a problem - these files have no subtitle track
Any suggestions?

I have faced the same problem exactly. Some seasons and one movie I have detected so far, do not show any video at all. If I open the same files in iTunes, they show ok. If I open the same files in QuickTime thought no video also. I guess it has something to do with QuickTime then. Try it yourselves in order to see if it is the same problms with you guys. If that is the case I will try to extract an older version of QuickTime from the installation package via Pacifist and see if that works.
Even if it doesn't work I am pretty sure they will come up with a new update fixing this, but the point is that Apple isn't used in making bugged updates, up until recent. What is wrong with them lately?
Anyway, as soon as I have news in the afternoon I will let you know

MP4 files have audio but not video

Using Premiere Pro CS6, I have no video when importing clips shoot with the new Canon HF G30. The clips are shoot in 1080P @ PF25 (25P). The audio is fine, but there simply is no video. Importing AVCHD clip from the same camera has no problems. Any suggestions as to how I get these clips imported with both video and sound?

Here they are:
MP4:
And the AVCHD:
Remember, I have tried importing both clips in Premiere Pro CS6, and the MP4 clip shows no video. The AVCHD clip does.
