Can't play HD video 1080 In quicktime in windows

Hi
When i try to play a HD movie in quicktime it takes a minute then a dialoge box apears and it say don't send, send, or debug. i try all three the videos is not playing. I have the latest version of quicktime 7.6.2 and i have windows xp Proffesional. Intel pentium 4 1.81 Ghz 2 of Gb Ram

What format are the movies (i.e. with what codecs were they created)? Alternatively, from where did they come?
Note that a 1.8GHz Pentium 4 system probably isn't fast enough to play 1080 content without at least some stuttering, if it will play at all. Apple specifies that HD-quality videos purchased on the iTunes Store requires a 2.0GHz Intel Core 2 Duo or faster processor, and HD movies from the iTunes Store are only 720p quality.

  • Can't play .tod video files with QuickTime X and Lion

    I have a JVC Everio videocamera that generates .tod files in HD. With MacOs Leopard and QuickTime 7 I had to install the Everio component for QuickTime and it worked, so I could watch the videos in QuickTime and import them to iMovie HD. But with QuickTime X and MacOs Lion I cannot do any of those, and I cannot even install the Everio component. If I change the extension from .tod to .mpeg, QuickTime can reproduce it, but I cannot import the file either to iMovie HD or to iMovie of Lion.
    Any suggestion?? I would rather prefer not to have to convert the files before importing due to time spent and to possible loss of quality.

    .TOD is as you imply a JVC video format. It contains MPEG2 video and MPEG1 audio which makes it similar but not identical to what might be on a DVD.
    MPEG Streamclip for Mac (free) can read .TOD files and save them to other formats, including more standard MPEG2 formats. However in this case MPEG Streamclip is still going to require the chargeable Apple MPEG2 QuickTime Component. Using MPEG Streamclip to convert to say a standard .m2v and .m1a pair of files would not lose any quality as you are merely changing the container and not the video and audio, if you changed to H.264 then you would potentially lose some quality.
    It is still possible to install QuickTime 7 on Lion and QuickTime 7 will work with older style QuickTime components, possible including the JVC TOD one. You need to download and install QuickTime 7 from here http://support.apple.com/kb/DL923
    This link may also be of use http://www2.cli.co.jp/products/ne/update_qtc_for_gzhd7/qtc3e_update.htm
    Note: If the JVC QuickTime component is only written for PowerPC chips it will never work on a Mac running Lion, in view of the apparent considerable age of Everio cameras this seems likely.

  • Why does Quicktime tell me it can't play certain videos created with my Phantom 2 v3 drone ? I fly it and switch back and forth from video to still pics and while I may have filmed four videos sometimes Quicktime tells me that one of them can't be pl

    Why does Quicktime tell me it can't play certain videos created with my Phantom 2 v3 drone ? I fly the drone and switch back and forth from video to still pics and while I may have filmed four videos , sometimes Quicktime tells me that one of them can't be played . Checking the info shows that each of the unplayed videos was saved in the same mp4 format as the playable ones yet some of my most important videos won't play . It's getting very frustrating .

    first; I use Perian, that helps even though it is no longer supported, (must have for avi files)
    the apple-cores at apple have gotten very sloppy -- quicktime is a bit finicky and flakey. 
      example,   occasionally (when copy file from quad's card to hard drive)  the avi will show up as a 'mov' file and qt plays it no problem and no conversion.
    but that is very occasionally,  most of the time qt won't convert the file,   -- iMovie won't open an avi without Perian installed  ,  I don't know how that effects qt.
    qt 7"pro" is no good either, (qt 10 does everything it does and for NOT the extra $35)  
    I have gone to VLC  and MPlayerX  for direct playback for drones and cameras.  

  • Quicktime Pro 7.2 Can't Play Lynda Videos Chris Orvig

    Hi,
    I can't play Lynda videos from "Photoshop CS3 for Photographers" with
    Chris Orvig.
    They all have the .mov extension. Quicktime Pro gives an error msg,
    "error -2048 Couldn't open the file <XXXXXFILENAMEXXXXX> because it is
    not a file that Quicktime understands".
    I tried Windows Media Player and Media Player Classic from K-Lite, but
    neither can play it either.
    All my other videos are playing ok. After the error I installed every
    codec from K-Lite Codec Pack Full.
    It's still not working.
    How do I fix this, where do I find a patch?
    I've sent an email to Lynda technical support.
    Windows XP Pro SP2
    Quicktime Pro 7.2
    K-lite Codec Pack Full - All Codecs Installed
    Windows Media Player 9

    I can also verify this (QT Pro 7.2 exporting to .mp4 not compatible
    with video iPod [firmware 1.2.1 on both 5G/5.5G units]).
    This results in the unusual situation where custom H.264 output
    is operable on the iPhone but not the iPod.
    Example: your iPhone should play
    http://homepage.mac.com/retiarius/sample.elements.mp4
    but it won't transfer to a video iPod.
    Yes, the workaround is to 'export for iPod' or do the conversion
    within 'iTunes', but this in many circumstances will generate
    larger files.
    The closest description of this situation is:
    http://lists.mplayerhq.hu/pipermail/ffmpeg-devel/2006-September/015930.html
    Perhaps Apple will release a video iPod firmware update soon
    to get the 'uuid' atoms and whatever watermarking they are
    using these days straightened out.
    I'm surprised this hasn't been noticed more by video podcasters
    who dutifully use Apple's own QT Pro encoding tool to optimize
    filesizes via the tunable H.264/.mp4 codec settings.

  • I can't play certain videos from the internet on my macbook

    I can't play certain videos from the internet on my macbook.
    When using Sarfari or Google Chome, I am unable to play some videos on the internet. News clips, posted videos on blogs, and tv episodes from their own network websites. Youtube videos are fine. I doesn't make sense.
    I tried downloading an update for quicktime, but the computer claims that quicktime is up to date. Yet, the videos and tv episodes don't play.
    I have checked for the most recent software updates, and everything is up to date. Nothing is wrong with the hardware either.
    Any suggestions would be awesome! Thank you!

    In addition to Flash, you might need some other plugins.  Microsoft videos are mostly in Silverlight, and you'll want Flip4Mac to play WMVs.  Perian contains codecs for pretty much every video online.

  • My QuickTime player us not playing .avi files and says I need a codec I can't play no .avi files on QuickTime. How could I fix this because I want to play these files with QuickTime.

    My QuickTime player us not playing .avi files and says I need a codec I can't play no .avi files on QuickTime. How could I fix this because I want to play these files with QuickTime.

    Hmm . . . comes with a Utility MPEG2 Component ML app with no explanation of what it's for?
    The utility app is an "assistant PKG installer." It allows Lion and Mountain Lion users to install the older QT MPEG-2 Playback Component installer PKG file which is not allowed to run on its own under Lion or Mountain Lion since these operating systems already have a QT X only MPEG-2 component embedded in the QT embedded structure. Without this utility you would have to either copy the component from an older system to your Lion or Mountain Lion system, use Pacifist for installation, or manually open the PKG contents and transfer the component to the appropriate component folder.
    As to your "discussion" regarding the playback of AVI file types, there are really only two strategies here:
    1) You can add component support so that QT can play the files natively or
    2) You can convert the file contents to compression formats that are natively compatible with the unmodified QT component configuration.
    Each user should decide for his or her own self which approach best suits their needs for a particular source file. In most cases, conforming the system's codec component configuration to play the source file directly results in higher video quality since no transcoding takes place but this strategy will not work if a codec which is required is not available for the user's operating system. On the other hand, converter utilities tend to support more built-in codecs and are easier to use since the user does not have to concern him or herself with the nature of the particular source compression formats but at the risk of some potential loss in visual quality. As to what converter to use, once again this is a matter of personal choice. In the case of commercial converters like iSkysoft, the codecs are built in while MPEG Streamclip accesses the host operating system's QT codec component configuration. I personally prefer the free HandBrake app for AVI, MKV, TS, MTS, and M2TS conversions since it has an exceptionally full-featured X.264 GUI with some user options that 97% of users are likely to never use.

  • How can i play encrypted video(.mp4) in iphone app?

    Hello,
    I want to play encrypted mp4 video in my app.
    How can i play encrypted video in iphone app?

    Thanks for your assistance. Unfortunately I'm still not able to get this to work.
    First, I don't see an export to Quicktime in AppleTV format setting. The only choices that I have are export to Quicktime in Full, CD, email or streaming video format.
    I tried both full and CD but I still cannot get it to my AppleTV. Once the video is in Quicktime format I drag and drop the file into my iTunes library. It shows up in the movies directory on Itunes but when I sync Itunes with Apple TV - nothing. Everything else syncs but just not the quicktime movie.
    Any ideas?

  • I cannot (anymore) play a song on iTunes, nor can I play a video, ie. You tube.

    I cannot (anymore) play songs on iTunes, nor can I play a video, ie. You Tube.

    I have done a google search, and I used a suggested fix by going to Quicktime; Preferences); Quiktime Player; click on audio source; close Quiktime and iTunes; restart.  It then works for both iTunes song and You Tube video.  But when I restart the computer, it no longer works.

  • Can't play the video in my Lumia 520

    Hi
    I always love the work of nokia and this time trailer app is just Nice but there's a problem.
    I have downloaded 6 trailers and only 1 is able to play.
    Rest of them says "sorry we can't play this video on your phone".
    I have no idea what's wrong with my phone.
    Please help.
    I have a Lumia 520.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi @livinglife,
    Welcome to Nokia Support Discussions! 
    What is the error message displayed when you try playing the video? Have you tried using mobile data? If yes, does it show the same issue? What fixes have you tried so far? By the way, are you using the same phone model?

  • Can I play home video on my ipod touch?

    Can I play home video on my ipod touch?

    So, the only way to watch home video in ipod touch is via itunes? Because in fact i'm trying to use my ipod touch as a video monitor for my DSLR camera while i use it for filming. I thought i could use the hdmi adapter for ipod touch, but everyone tells me that it might not be possible, so i wont buy it without knowing if it is possible or not. I wonder if it is phisicaly possible, so all we would need for that is someone to develop a softare to use the hdmi adapter to watch a video into an ipod. I say this because my camera has a hdmi video out, but it could be with simple RCA cables too. Someone think it is possible?

  • HT4437 Can I play a video from the remote app onto apple tv whilst simultaneously stra,ing music to other speakers via express?

    Can I play a video from the remote app onto apple tv whilst simultaneously stra,ing music to other speakers via express?

    Thank you for that, I wanted to make sure I was trying to replicate the same thing as you. Just tried it now, works fine for me.
    Of note though, this will take a relatively well performing network to achieve this, I have such a network, if your network is not as good as it might be, you might encounter problems.
    For the avoidance of doubt, I used the remote app on my phone to get my iTunes library on my computer to stream music to 3 of my Apple TVs, I then used the remote app to control another Apple TV and get it to stream a music video from my computer to it. Of interest I managed to do this while my wife was using yet another Apple TV (not with the remote app) to watch something else from iTunes on my computer.

  • I can't play YouTube videos on my IPhone! What's the problem?

    I can't watch YouTube Videos on my IPhone 4 (iOS 5.0.1 No jailbreak) The Debug Console from Safari tells me, that there's a mistake in the JavaScript. How to fix it? I already spoke with Google, but they didn't have a problem. I can open other website and by example videos from Vimeo, but I can't play YouTube-Videos.
    I hope, you can help me!
