Can't play or encode h264+ac3? in TS file

hi! im trying to reencode a h264+liba52 in a .TS container to h264+mp3 in avi container, but either mencoder and ffmpeg give me a 0kb file and doesn't encode, i try playing the file with no success in mplayer, but in vlc it plays 3 seconds and then hangs, the funny part is that a ffmpeg -i gives me detailed file info and correct "Duration" of the movie:

maybe the DTS-HD is messing the playing i think
You're right.
DTS_HD is not support in regular archlinux package.
I found this:

This patch was apply marth 17. So, try to install last mplayer svn and make another test.

How can I play a game that utilises a powerpc file on a mac running OS X Yosemite?

I just bought Warcraft 3 the reign of chaos and when I try to run the disk to install it I get a pop-up message saying that apple no longer supports powerpc Files. I'm preferably looking for a free solution to this problem.

If your Mac came with Mavericks as the default OS X, then it cannot be downgraded anyway. There is no way you can play a PPC Game on an Intel Mac that cannot be reverted to at least Snow Leopard. All you can do is try to get a refund and see if they make a version that will work on Yosemite (or Mavericks).

Can not play songs due to something with original file missing.

Hello, Just recently a lot of my songs can not be played because all of a sudden When i try to play the song it says, the song "song" could not be played because the original file could not be found, would you like to locate it? but it just happened to a ton of my songs after i finally decided to have it all organized into the itunes folder, didnt realise i hadn't before.
I have about 300-400 or even more songs that are recieving this error message.

kidsbesides74 I am with you there man, I know I sound like the usual Mac poster, but yes I have been a Mac head forever and have had every iPod/iTunes since the first, but I am STUCK, I have tried all these suggestions, but I can not get the bulk of my iTunes collection, ( 2000 of over 4000) songs to play because of the same problem, It just says that this Apple ID does not exist even though I can see it right there in the >Get Info for each of these songs. I will have to call Apple directly in the morning, I just hope they don't do that thing where they say that I must be doing something wrong. Is there a limit of two Apple ID's , I now have two Apple ID's here at the house and a third at the office could that be the problem ? if so, how do I get the songs I paid for folded into my other account?

Can't play any video...

I'm on a dell optiplex GX1 with an nvidia mx 400 card, this same card worked on the model that came before this machine fine but i just noticed that i can't play any type of video, not standalone files of through the mplayer-plugin. any help would be appreciated. i also tried the different options for the nvidia driver with/out "RenderAccel", disabled dri and glx in the xorg file, and still nothing, though everything else works fine. i also tried the different outputs in mplayer too. if it helps, this is the output i get from an .avi file:

This looks bad, mplayer doesn't even try to do anything, I have absolutely no clue what happens here? But I have another q: Why do you run mplayer in background?

QuickTime can't play H264+AAC file??

I have a H264+AAC file,
it played on VLC player is ok,
but it can't play on QuickTime,
have any tool can detect what's wrong?
is it incorrect file format?

Maybe you can learn a bit more about this mysterious movie. In quicktime (and probably VLC too) there is an Inspector (in Quicktime it's invoked by Window->Inspector or Command-I. It may provide more information about the nature of the video even if it's not playing normally.
If you can post a screen shot of an Inspector window maybe we can be more helpful.

What file format should I use if they can't play H264?

I output my final AE animations with the Animation codec for editing.
When I create a version of an animation for the client to review, I use the H264 codec. It looks good, and the file size is reasonable.
But what do I do if the client can't play videos with the H264 codec? This pops up with older computers, even if they have Quicktime 7 or higher.
(Worth noting - the Mac that I bought last August doesn't have Sorenson 3 on it. I don't know how to get that one back.)
Best,
Mike

Mylenium
That's a good point, which probably explains why some of the OP's clients have problems when others don't.
For the purpose of others seeking to enable Quicktime Legacy Codecs, I should mention that Mike (the OP) contacted me off-Forum to enquire specifics on how to do so. The specifics are:
On a Mac, go to System Preferences/Quicktime/Advanced, and check the Legacy Codec box.
The same is accessible within Windows by launching Quicktime, then choose Edit/Preferences/Quicktime Preferences/Advanced.

No it can't, you need SWF to load the file within.

Encoding H264 for the iPod?!?

How do I encode a valid moviefile that can be played back on the iPod aswell be used on the web and in my Podcast?
I've had problems finding the baseline profile for my encodes.
Resulting in non compatible files.
The source is PAL DV, and the final should be something around
700kbps, AAC Stereo 44.100, 25 fps, H264
Any suggestions?

Seriously, there are Windows apps out there that can do a better job making iPod files than Compressor!
I was reading an article on a respected and very popular macintosh related site - http://www.macintouch.com/ - about how to compress video for playback on an iPod and they didn't even mention Compressor.

It works fine with VLC using the codec avc1 , so the fix might be to use coreavc codec with mplayer, unfortunately mplayer-coreavc-svn from AUR does not compile :S
Thank you

It actually worked!
Can't see what was the problem with mplayer but now it plays perfectly
Thank you!

Can't play VDO tutorials of Apple's web sites

I'm using Mac mini with Mac OS X 10.7.1 in school's proxy server. The port of proxy is 8080.
My problem is my mac can not play VDO tutorials of Apple's web sites,http://www.apple.com/iwork/tutorials/#pages-hero (and other VDO of Apple).
Every attempt to play these VDO, there is a authorization pop-up asking for username and password of the proxy server. There is no VDO after filling it but soon another authorization pop-up again.
I called Apple technical support. He asked me go through Youtube and movie download from iTunes. All of those were OK. He concluded that the only problem is VDO streaming and send my case to his superior (senior advisor). Apple's senior advisor said that "probably" there is a problem with the setting of the server. The technical support team admitted that they are not familiar with networking.
I asked our IT, he suspected that my problems came from Mac software. He said that Windows PC use the same proxy port to view those VDO tutorials but Mac software change the port of VDO streaming from 8080 to 80 (they checked it). This is the first problem. So every attempt to play that VDO requires new authorization with user name and password. The second problem, Mac software would not accept the username and password that required by proxy server for the new port. So, no matter how often I filled up username and password it won't work.
Help, please.

I was having problems opening some downloads (using VUZE) using quicktime
Are you referring to "Vuze" the "torrent" app? If so, then what was the source and compression formats for the files you downloaded? While I would expect Apple files directly downloaded from the Apple site to be compatible with the QT player, files posted by other sources could be in any compression format and would either trigger the message you got, not play, or not even load to the player. The normal work flow in such situations is to determine what compression formats were used to encode the downloaded file and then install the same components if available for your system--not arbitrarily download QT components which have not useful function or which may create component conflicts.
Neither of which could I also get to open my downloads, so I deleted the file.
What file did you delete--the downloaded installer, the installed component, the QT Player, the video file you downloaded, or something else?
Now I can not play any of the videos on the Apple website.
How are you trying to view them? In a browser? Opening the file as a URL in the QT Player? As a downloaded file?
Quicktime is the diverted program but I have no idea what to do from here. Can anyone please please help me with this.
Have no idea what you are talking about here. Is this a setting in the Vuze software? If so, you need to go the Vuze forum to get more information.
I should add, I have sound when I play the tutorials. just no visual, and I get no message to download QT either.
Once again, how are you viewing the video? What compression formats are involved? If using the QT Player, what does the "Inspector" window or Finder "Info" window say about the file?

Is there a way to create a cd or dvd of photos that can be "played" on a regular dvd player?

I have a lot of pictures that I'd like to burn to a cd or dvd that can be "played" or "viewed" on a tv via dvd/blueray unit. Can this be done? If so, how?

Export the slideshow out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar. Select Size = Medium or Large [iPhoto 8 (09)] and earlier or 480p [iPhoto 9 (11)] or later.
Open iDVD, select a theme and drag the exported QT movie file into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
Follow this workflow to help assure the best quality video DVD:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
If iDVD was not preinstalled on your Mac you'll have to obtain it by purchasing a copy of the iLife 09 disk from a 3rd party retailer like Amazon.com: ilife 09: Software or eBay.com. Why, because iDVD (and iWeb) was discontinued by Apple over a year ago.
Why iLife 09 instead of 11?
If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides themes from iDVD 5-7. The Software Update no longer installs the earlier themes when starting from the iLIfe 11 disk nor do any of the iDVD 7 updaters available from the Apple Downloads website contain them.
Currently the only sure fire way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:
This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:
You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.

Is there a way to check if my music(s) can actually play?

Hello everyone. I'm planning to buy an iPod Shuffle.
This question will decide if I'll buy the iPod Shuffle or wait for iPod nano.
My firend who own the iPod shuffle said there's a case when certain .mp3, which is a supported file type, just won't play due to many possible reasons.(like encoder, etc.)
I know that the problem can be solved by letting iTunes convert the files into its preferred format, then that converted files should be able to play on the iPod shuffle.
I have no problem with that case if I'm ripping musics from a CD AUDIO. But if the file I want is already a compressed format like MP3, I wouldn't want to lower its quality even further by converting it to AAC or any other compressed format.
When there are hundreds of music files onto the iPod shuffle, and if 2 or 3 of them will never play, you never know since there's no LCD or browsing features. To check hundreds music file by playing them one-by-one in order is a pain.
But let me state this I do like the iPod Shuffle more than iPod nano. If there's a way to check if EVERY music files in my iPod are playable, I'll choose iPod Shuffle over iPod nano.
To sum up the question : Is there a way to check if every music files in the iPod shuffle can actually play?
Thank you very much. ^_^

The shuffle will load from a specified play list in the order of that play list if you set it not to choose randomly.
You do not have to play the songs all the way through to test them. If a song starts you can skip to the next one and test it.
You have to test the songs on the shuffle becuse usually the songs will play in iTunes and on other iPods. The only shortcuts I have found are:
1. If one song from an album will not play then all will not play (this is music store purchases) Thus you can test one song instead of an entire album.Ooops CD - i think I just dated myself.
2. I have only had problems with songs from the Music Store. YMMV A very small number of songs.

I have a mid 2010 macbook pro laptop can i play a region 2 NTSC format dvd on it without problems?

as said in the titel any help would be very helpful thanks

It would have been useful to know what region you are in!
DVD Player: About DVD-Video Regions
Region encoding is the mechanism that enables motion picture studios to control the worldwide release of their movies. It is required by the DVD Forum (http://www.dvdforum.org/forum.shtml) in all commercial hardware DVD players. Every DVD-Video disc contains one byte of data representing a region code, which limits where the disc can be played.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2397
Once you have set he region in DVD Player five times it cannot be changed.
Instead, use VLC to view videos from different regions:
