Bridge CS 6 preview problem with video files

Hey Community,
I have a problem with the preview in Adobe Bridge Cs 6.
With the pictures and photos everything is fine, but every kind of video format is not displayed as a preview in the preview window, so that I have to open each video manually by doubleclicking on it, so that it is opens in Quicktime.
Is there an opportunity to get that fixed? I just see the Quicktime or VLC-Icon, nothing more.
I tried to purge to cache, to set everything to defaults but nothing worked.
Thank you in advance und best regards.
Alex

Doubleclicking on the files in Bridge causes that quicktime or VLC or itunes (depending on the file format) will open that, but bridge does not handle anything?!
Bridge CC and Bridge CS6 both handle my .mov files from EOS 1Dx and iPhone without any problems. The show in the preview window and can be played with sound in this same window. (MacPro with 10.8.4)
Purging cache is what it is, it dumps the previous cache of the preview and forces Bridge to create a new one, nothing else is set to default.
First try a reset of preferences and hold down option key while restarting Bridge and choose reset prefs. then try again.

Problem with video files

Hello,
I'm looking for a PC software wich suport the N8 video files.
When i try to import the movies made with my N8 in Adobe premiere pro, there not opening.
The only way i found out was to convert them in quicktime the reconvert them in APP. But it's taking a very long time and a bit of the quality.
Do someone know an editing software for PC which can DIRECTLY open movies filles from a Nokia ?
Thx.

Hi Kionoka1,
The N8 saves video files as .MP4, so when you import, you will either get an "unsupported format" message or the audio plays with no visual.
Have you tried to rename the file extension from MP4 to MPG or M4V. This should invoke an alternate import module that will correctly handle the file.
Hope this helps,

Problems with Video files in LR4

Hi,
I installed LR4 over LR3. When I try to play a video file in LR4 nothing happens. I cannot import video files or synchronize them.
I also noticed the LR4 hangs for about a minute when I lauch it...
What's wrong? I have Windows 7.

I had a similar problem, but it was with .mov, .avi, and .3gp movie files. When I tried to import these video file types, LR4 would simply hang. Here is what I did to fix the problem.
- Close LR4
- Find a file of the same type using your file explorer that will not import. Right click on it and select Quicktime as the default player. (remember, LR use QT to render all its video)
- Open the video file and confirm that it plays under Quicktime
- Reboot your machine. (this is really only to kill some LR processes that may still be running)
Once your machine restarts, load LR4 and import the video. It should work at this point.

Problem with video file for iMovie 4

I'm not completely sure if this is the right forum for my question, but...
I sent out some old family videos to be converted into movie files (.mov files). The problem is that they came back with each file at approximately an hour long. I want to be able to edit them (add chapters, add background music, etc.) and make copies for each family member on my computer. I tried importing the video files into iMovie, but it said that they were too large and that I could import them after buying QuickTime Pro and chopping them up into smaller portions through that.
I had two questions. First, would I be able to do this with QuickTime Pro and then use iMovie or iDVD to create the DVDs without any (or too many) problems? I'd rather not spend the money to buy QuickTime Pro and then find out it was a waste because it didn't work. And second, is there some other program (preferably free) that I could use to cut these videos up into smaller portions?
Please help! Thanks!

Yes, QT Pro can do it for you.

You can also buy iLife '05 or '06 as none of these version has the length limitation.

Problem with video file SEEKING (Seek.java)

Hi,
I have a problem with seeking the video file, actually mpeg2 file. I tried the Seek.java example from sun web site (http://www.cs.odu.edu/~cs778/spring04/lectures/jmfsolutions/examplesindex.html#seek) but it doesn't work. When I try to call getControl it returns null.
fpc = (FramePositioningControl)p.getControl("javax.media.control.FramePositioningControl");
if (fpc == null) {
System.err.println("The player does not support FramePositioningControl.");
System.err.println("There's no reason to go on for the purpose of this demo.");
return false;
Does anybody have some idea how to make a player that will support FramePositioningControl ???
Or do you know some java dvd player that can be used in java application for free?
thx a lot

try {
     Manager.setHint(Manager.PLUGIN_PLAYER, new Boolean(true));
               player = Manager.createRealizedPlayer(new MediaLocator("file:"

          } catch (NoPlayerException err) {
               err.printStackTrace();
          } catch (CannotRealizeException err) {
               err.printStackTrace();
          } catch (IOException err) {
               err.printStackTrace();
if (player == null) {
System.out.println("Trouble creating a player.");
return;
FramePositioningControl fpc = (FramePositioningControl)player.getControl

Premiere cc problem with video file

when I import the video files in the project not are recognized in succession, but in random order, and when I move them in the timeline audio and video are not linked.
help me please

first, to make sure it brings in the audio and video make sure "source patching" is on.
then two ways to bring in footage. either by filename or by the order in which you select them from the bin. if you want them to be brought in by filename, make sure the column is sorted by name, select all and from the bin menu choose "automate to sequence". choose sort order. if you want to choose clips in random order in bin, use ctrl to add clips to your selection, one by one in the order you wish. then from the menu choose selection order, or click the button at the bottom of the bin project bin window.

Problem with Video File Names

When I did the last big update for my Storm 9530, all of my video files did the following. I ripped some DVD's and editted the names to what I wanted them because before they said "DVDRIP..." when I was done. When I got my Storm, I put the files on it and they worked fine. However, after the upgrade, all the file names in my list are back to what the file names were before I editted them right after they were ripped. But, when I select the properties for a file, it has the correct file name and when I try to rename them it has the correct file name highlighted. I've tried deleting them all and readding them but it always goes back to being wrong. Is there a way to fix this so that I can put my files back on and know what each of them is without having to look at the properties of each?

It sounds like you you need to change a setting in the view somehow. I think what is being displayed is the media tag information. I hope this helps point you in the right direction.

Problem with video file playback

Hi,
I just converted a music DVD file to ipod using itunes. It plays fine on my 5th gen ipod, but I'm unable to scroll through the file to the point I want to hear - it lets me scroll but then automatically reverts back to the beginning of the DVD (ie. 0:00). Is this normal and unavoidable (I really don't want to have to listen to an hour's worth of video before I get to part I want to hear) or is there something I can do about it? Thanks very much.

I have the same problem and I know that it is due to my PCI Audio driver not being compatible with WIndows 8.1.
iTunes isn't the only program that can't direct sound to the built-in speakers anymore. The obvious solution would be to update the drivers, but unfortunately Dell does not provide an updated driver for my model, so I am stuck with that.
However, saying that, only my laptop speakers are affected by this. I can use sound fine on applications where I can choose the output device and direct sound to the head phones, but for some reason iTunes does not let you choose the audio device manually.
To listen to music I imported the iTunes Library in Windows Media Player and changed the audio output using the following instructions: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/c00d11ba
However, I would also like to rent movie's from iTunes,
Would be great if iTunes would let you choose the output device, too, like most other applications using sound from Skype to Windows Media Player,...

Problem with Video File on my Imac

since a week when i open a .avi file my computer become really slow and it take like 5 min to open the video in real player or quicktime but for the rest like .mp4 or any other type every thing work just fine. so what the problem and how can i solve it?
Thanks!

I have had this happen when I did not have the proper audio codec to play the avi. The video was fine, but apparently it threw a mini fit trying to figure out how to play the audio-some kind of surround sound stuff.
I normally recommend just downloading VLC and don't worry about using quicktime for playback.

TS3623 I rented a movie and can watch preview perfectly with video and audio feed as signal strength is at top when I checked. However, when I purchased rental video is fine , but I get scratched sound for audio. Any thoughts to fix?

I rented a movie and can watch preview perfectly with video and audio feed as signal strength is at highest when I checked. However, when I purchased rental video is fine , but I get scratched sound for audio. Any thoughts to fix? I rented movie within week and it worked. All previews of movies and show also works.

I have a suspicion that the problem is not in the recording device itelf, but rather in the playback-software, which is struggling with an unfamiliar audio format/codec/whatever-it's-called... I opened the file in QuickTime Player 7 (7.6.6) and selected "Show Movie Properties" and it says:
"Video Track: H.264
Sound Track: Integer (Little Endian)"
All current Mac systems support Integer (both Big and Little Endian) audio natively. The fact you can hear anything at all proves that the audio is playing back. The most likely problem would be a malfunction associated with the mic pickup.

Problems with .ARW files and auto toning

problems with .ARW files and auto toning
let me try to explain this because this has happened in past and never found a way to resolve but i lived with it
now that I have a Sony A7R the problem is more serious
Firstly i take pride it making the picture happen all in camera, i use DRO lvl 5 to get enough light, like when i'm shooting at dusk. DRO its like doing HDR but in a single file, it lightens the darks. in my camera i'm happy with results
but when I upload them to lightroom, they come out near black.
allow me to explain
lets say I import 100 images
i double check my preferences and everything is UNCHECKED when it comes to importing options, there is no auto toning, nothing.
as the images import i see a preview in the thumbnail which looks fine.
i double click on one to enlarge it, hence leave grid view.
for a brief 1 or 2 seconds, i see the full image in all its glory but than lightroom does something funny, it darkens the image
one by one as it inspects each image, if it was a DRO image it makes it too dark.
to make this clear, the image is perfect as it was in the beginning but after a few seconds lightroom for some reason thinks it needs to correct it.
how to prevent lightroom from doing this, i want the image exactly as it is, why must lightroom apply a correction>?
i think it has to do something with interpreting the raw file and lightroom applies its own algorithm.
but here is what i dont get.....before lightroom makes the change i'm able to witness the picture exactly as it was taken and want it unchanged..
now i have to tweak each file or find a profile for it which is added work.
any ideas how to prevent lightroom from ruining my images and just leave them as they were when first detected...
there are 2 phases...one is when it originally imports and they look fine
second is scanning each image and applying some kind of toning which darkens it too much.
thanks for the help

sorry thats the auto reply message from yahoo email.
i've disabled it now
thing is, there is no DRO jpg to download from the camera
its only ARW. so my understanding is when i use DRO setting, the camera makes changes to the ARW than lightroom somehow reads this from the ARW.
but then sadly reverts it to no DRO settings.
because i notice if i take normal picture in raw mode its dark but if i apply dro to it, it comes out brighter, yet when i d/l the image from camera to lightroom, which is an ARW - there are no jpgs. lightroom decides to mess it up
so in reality there is no point in using DRO because when i upload it lightroom removes it.
is there a way to tell lightroom to preserve the jpg preview as it first sees it.
its just lame, picture appears perfect...than lightroom does something, than bam, its ruined,.
what do i need to do to prevent lightroom from ruining the image? if it was good in the first place.

XDCAM-EX problem with .MOV files on Premiere CS6

Hello!
I've been working in a video project on Premiere CS5 with video files .MOV from a JVC camera and from a Sony XDCAM EX. I've installed the Premiere CS6 TRIAL. The project has been converted: I get to watch and edit the .MOV files from the JVC Cam, BUT I can't load the media .MOV from XDCAM EX, It says the codec is missing or unavailable... I got the same problem with some .DV files working before on CS5...
I looked for the codec info and I found this one: MediaCoreQTCodecRulesCS6.xml
It shouldn't be working?
Why if all the files were working with Premiere CS5, They are not with Premiere CS6, being this one the latest version of the software? Is it due to be a trial version of the software?
I would really appreciate your help on this issue!
Have a good day!
Zoila

Officially you need FCP installed to work with XDCAM EX Movs. Are you on a mac or PC?
However, this is an update for quicktime on macs that gives you the XDCAM EX codec:

Not sure if there's an equivalent for PCs.
