Cannot read videos on the Canvas

Hi all!
I'm still getting used to FCE 4.0, but something bothers me: I can't read videos on the canvas screen. I either get sound an a blue screen with a "non rendu" (it's a French version), image, but no sound (get beeps) or the blue sreccn and the beeps.
What gives?
Thanks in advance,
Claude

This happens if your clips do not match your sequence settings. What exactly are the item properties of your clips? What are the item properties of your sequence? When you put the first clip into the timeline, do you not get an option to change the sequence to match the clips? If that does not happen the clips are probably in a format that is not supported by FCE, but I'm only guessing without any real information.

  • When using Final Cut Express, the video in the Viewer window looks fine, but when I insert the video into the Canvas Timeline it appears to lose resolution, and look fuzzy and blurry. Are there preferences or settings for the Timeline that cause this?

    When using Final Cut Express, the video in the Viewer window looks fine, but when I insert the video into the Canvas Timeline it appears to lose resolution, and look fuzzy and blurry. Are there preferences or settings for the Timeline that cause this?

    Thanks David. I had to convert the mts file to Quick Time (using AunSoft Conversion software) before I could import it into Final Cut Express. And I made sure I kept the size of movie (720 X 480 with letterbox) to compliment what I set my Panaconic AVCCAM video recorder at (720/60). Even after I fully render it, it still looks fuzzy in the Canvas window at the right that plays what I have editing down in the Timeline. A friend that edits some using Final Cut Pro helped me to narrow things down to this problem. This is also wierd. If my Viewer window at the left is set to 200% to get the person's head the same size in the Canvas window at the right we needed to put it to 400%. Does this make any sense. We think we need to control the Time line resolution somehow but cannot find any options from my manual, or the help, or in the various drop down menus. Do you have any clue? What is going on?

  • I recently upgraded to 4.o, then reinstalled 3.6.17 (then upgraded to 3.6.18) & have since encountered many problems. Facebook doesn't function properly, and I cannot watch video on the NYT website. Please help!

    I cannot make any comments on Facebook & I cannot view video on the NY Times website. On some other websites I cannot scroll through slideshows. This seems to be strictly a Firefox issue: none of these problems occur on Safari or Chrome.
    I'm on a Mac OS 10.6.8. Everything worked before this change. To rectify, per instruction, I have cleared history, cookies & cache; updated Adobe flash; started in Safe Mode & tested all extensions; upgraded and tested all plug-ins and add-ons; created and tested new profile. I do NOT want to upgrade to 4.0 or 5.o. I've spent weeks trying to repair this to no avail; (it shouldn't be this hard. I've been a Firefox user since its inception, but Chrome is looking like my only alternative.) Can anyone please help?

    In my case it seems that Firefox just doesn't "see" (or can't find?) the coupon printer application anymore after the FF update. (and yes, my add-ons are enabled - to answer the tech support people's first question).
    For me, the coupon printer doesn't even show up in my Firefox "Add-Ons" list anymore. Is that what people typically see when they're saying the coupon printer "doesn't work" with FF? The coupon printer was visible on the add-ons list before my FF update, and now it's totally Gone! It seems that Firefox just doesn't "see" (or can't find?) the coupon printer application anymore since the FF update.
    When I'm on the coupons.com site and I click "print coupons", it tells me I haven't installed the application. But it Is installed on my computer, I can see it in my folders, and it works on IE, so it's definitely there.
    BTW - I have uninstalled/reinstalled the coupon printer application. I have tried all the suggestions on the Mozilla help/forum sites, as well as the Coupons.com web site. I have closed and re-started Firefox after the installation. I have also shut down and restarted my pc after installation. I tried installing the application with Firefox open, and tried it again with Firefox closed. I've even cleared out all my cookies/history associated with Coupons.com.
    ... I can't think of anything else to try, except for the "solution" of using IE for coupons.
    If it Really is a problem on the Coupon.com end of things, do you think it's worth it if we bombard the coupons.com support team with messages saying they need to fix the problem? (or just a waste of time?) ;(

    Ziatron is correct that Flash does not work on an iPad, but it does work on a Mac. See Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.160.

  • TS5148 When I try to play a movie on Netflix from my IPad, I get a pop up saying: Cannot play video. "The connected display is not supported".

    When I try to play a movie on Netflix from my IPad, I get a pop up saying: Cannot play video. "The connected display is not supported".  I have updated my Apple TV, tried restarting it, and have tried using my IPod Touch all without any luck. This display has worked in the past. This just happen a couple days ago.
    Any ideas out there?

    I have been successfully using my Apple TV with my iPad2 to access Netflix through airplay (mirroring) and suddenly it won't work.  It says "the connected display is not supported"  What's up?
    Also when I try to stream Netflix through my Apple TV menu on my television it says "An error occurred loading this content.  Try again later.  But trying again later doesn't work any better.
    Now the only way I can watch Netflix is using my small iPad screen.  It appears the problem is with streaming Netflix through my Apple TV

  • Itunes cannot read contents of the ipod.  go to summary tab in ipod preferences and click restore to restore to factory settings

    I plugged in my ipod to install the latest version of itunes on my computer and I got this message:  "itunes cannot read contents of the ipod.  go to summary tab in ipod preferences and click restore to restore to factory settings".  I can't get rid of it and now have zero songs on my ipod but all of my songs are in my library.  Help, please.

    Sorry, my mistake, the nano has a flash-based drive so most of that post won't apply, although you might see if the DFU restore section works.

  • I cannot read, use my iPad outdoors?  Cannot read books, surf the net; nothing.  Apple sold me a screen guard to helpmwith the glare, 've adjusted the settings to just about every combination but still nothing.  HELP!!

    I cannot read, use my iPad outdoors?  Cannot read books, surf the net; nothing.  Apple sold me a screen guard to help with the glare, I've adjusted the settings to just about every combination but still nothing.  HELP!!

    Turning the brightness up as much as possible will help a little. However, as Skydiver notes, screens like those used in tablets and cell phones don't work well in bright sun. That's why I have a Kindle for reading outside. Not to mention, I'd feel a lot less awful if I got sand in a $100 ereader than if I got it in my $700 iPad.

    If this page doesn't help then you will need to try contacting iTunes Support (you will probably need to give them images of the front and back of the card, and possibly its receipt) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then iTunes Cards And Codes

  • I cannot view video in the viewer, canvas nor preview

    HELP! I already threw away my old FCP and QUICKTIME Preferences. I just downloaded the updates. HELP.
    I originally had FCP 4.5 and upgraded to the FCP
    Production Suite 5.0

    I installed Final Cut Pro 5.0 Production Suite. I had 4.5.
    Now when I try to edit I cannot see any video on the browser, canvas or viewer. I'm not sure what the problem is? I have threw away my FCP preferences, my quicktime preferences. I upgraded Pro Applications 2005-01 and 2005-02. I am now downloading MAC OSX 10.4.3.. I have 10.4.2. I went into disc utilities and did a disk verify then disc repair with my hardrive and my La Cie external hardrive. Everything was fine, but still I cannot see any video???? I also added more memory. I now have 2.5 GB of memory.
    Help... Thanks.

  • Cannot see video on my canvas, just hear the audio

    I do not know how this happened, I been working on layers, moved v1 up to v2 when doing layer and all of sudden, I double-click on the timeline to see it in the canvas, and I just hear the audio and do not see the video. I did some research and they said to delete my preference plist list and user of final cut express, and i almost had a heart attack, I lost everything, hours of work. Fortunately, I went back to the trash to retrieve and I had my video.
    I am working on a video for a dear friend, daughter's party.
    Help. TIA

    Where are you saving your project files? It sounds as if you deleted the wrong files. Trashing preferences does not require trashing any folders that can contain project files or media. If you're trashing a folder, you're sending the wrong items to the trash.

  • Can't see video in the Canvas window

    Something's just gotten turned off and I can no longer see an image in the Canvas window.
    I can hear the audio as the sequence plays, but there's no video.
    What's happened?

    Just figured it out: "Wireframe" had gotten selected instead of "Image + Wireframe" (in the Canvas drop-down menu).
