Clip Notes won't play/no controls

I export Adobe clip notes from Premeire Pro CS4 and when one tries to open with Adobe Reader 9 there are no player controls, so the video clip cannot be played. I am running Vista 64 bit. Does Adobe Reader 9 not work with clip notes?

You would think that Adobe might do us the courtesy of letting
Prelmiere Pro users know that Clip Notes aren't going to work anymore with Adobe
Reader 9.x or later. Adobe Tech Support seems to be clueless about the issue. Does one hand know what the other is doing?

Clips suddenly won't play in iMovie

I have several projects I'm working on in iMovie. All of a sudden some of the clips that I'm using to create my projects won't play in iMovie any longer. When the project gets to the portion of the video where that clip is, the video freezes until the next "good" clip comes up in the timeline. All the while the music still plays over the frozen video. Also, the clips are taken from longer video clips that still play in iMovie. For example, in one case a video clip is 11 seconds long and I'm only taking the first 4 seconds. It is these 4 seconds that won't play. The rest of the clip plays fine if I bring it into the project but the first 4 seconds that I originally had in my project won't play no matter what I do. Thus I know it is not the format of the clips. Also, the clips still play fine in QuickTime, just not in iMovie.
I've tried suggestions such as deleting the iMovie preferences file (plist file), taking the movies out of the Movie folder, restarting iMovie, closing iMovie, moving my projects back to the Movies folder, and re-opening the projects to no avail.
I'm using
Mac Book with OS 10.6.4
iMovie 8.0.6 (821)
Quick Time 10.0 (114)

Video clip previews won't play.

Videos won't play in Adobe Premiere Elements 10, but play fine in other programs on my computer. I've tried rendering it, installing a new hard drive for scratch disk, and saving the file in different locations. Once when I applied video merge to a clip, it played. I am editing videos blindly and can't take advantage of most of the features of the program. It's really frustrating. Any ideas?

What is the video card/graphics card that your computer with Premiere Elements 10 uses?
If it is NVIDIA GeForce, then you have the well known and documented Premiere Elements 10/NVIDIA GeForce issue which is remedied by rolling back
the driver version to about May 2013. Please review the following
ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE10: NVIDIA Video Card Driver Roll Back
as well as the Announcement on this matter at the top of this forum.
Basically you will need to plug your information into the following NVIDIA fields to determine if there is a driver version for your card that is old enough to be used.
NVIDIA Driver Downloads - Advanced Search
If you are a Windows 8 or 8.1 64 bit user, you will probably find that old enough drivers do not exist for you. Then non NVIDIA GeForce card or Premiere Elements 11, 12, or 13.
Please review and consider if any of the above applies to you. If not, then we will explore alternative troubleshooting.
Thank you.

IMovie 9 - Video is edited, shows the project clips, but won't play at all? Please Help

So i've finished all the editing on my project, But now it won't play. The clips show on the project reel (left side) but doesn't show the video in the viewer on the right side. Space bar just sent the red tracking bar back to the beginning but won't play. Hitting the play button makes nothing happen, and playing full screen doesn't play the video either.

Guitar notes won't play below D2?

On GarageBand for iPad, when I try to play a note below D2, it doesn't make a sound. Is it a bug or am I doing something wrong?

Logic Pro X: One MIDI note won't play

I am having a strange problem with Logic Pro X. I use a Yamaha CP33 as my main MIDI keyboard, connected by USB. In the past couple weeks, a strange problem has emerged - one of the notes from the keyboard, the B-2, to be specific, just doesn't trigger. At first I thought the key was broken, but it's okay, because:
- all keys work fine when I use the keyboard's analog audio output
- all keys work fine in MainStage
- the non-functional key moves up and down if I choose to transpose the notes on the keyboard.
So I have concluded that it's a software issue specific to Logic. I have already tried reinstalling the Yamaha USB MIDI driver, it didn't help. Could it be some obscure setting in Logic that is messing things up? What do you suggest can I do to fix this?

Hi
You may have set up LPX to use that MIDI note as an automation control, or as a keycommand
a) Go to Preferences;Controller Assignments & check there
b) Go to Preferences Key Commands and check there
Might be quicker to reset aboth?

When I press space to play the clips/movie won't play at all

There are no signs that the clips are corrupt, there is no yellow warning triangle etc. But when I press spacebar the screen changes as if it were to play but the line doesn't move at all and the clip stays 'frozen'

have you tried closing all your apps on your computer and then restarting it to see if that solves the problem ?

Letter "A" is appearing on clips and clips not appearing until play pressed

Hello All,
Two challenges:
1. I have the letter A appear on clips when placed in the browser window. This wasn't happening before. Any idea what it means?
2. When I paste into the browser from the canvas, the clip doesn't appear until I move the head back, and press play. Any idea about this?
Thanks.

Jerry,
Thanks for the advice. When you mention tutorials on FCP, I assume you mean someplace other than the software package. I say this because I was pretty surprised that it didn't come with some tutorials. Then again, this is for some pretty experienced people, and I'm holding down the other end of the range.
If the aforementioned is true, could you point me in the direction of some meaningful tutorials at this stage of my experience? I came across a couple, but things like adding a vintage look to my footage is the least of my worries right now. So any links or 3rd party tutorials (Free or Purchase) would be appreciated.
Cheers,
DG

Embedded audio and video clips won't play in a pdf doc.

I have an EPK with embedded clips that won't play. I've udated all my software, and followed the isntructions for allowing 3rd party content ot be stored. Macbook Pro with all updates installed.

The "wm" part of the file extension is a Windows Media Player format.
They are not compatible in QuickTime without third party software help.
http://flip4mac.com is the Microsoft recommended method for Mac users to view WMP formats and they offer a "beta" version for Snow Leopard users.
Your AVI file has the same troubles but the fix may be a bit easier to fix:
http://perian.org (for the codecs) and the older QuickTime Player.
To install QuickTime Player you use your Snow Leopard DVD and the "Optional Installs" package.
It will install in your Utilities folder.

Clip Notes streaming export causes Reader media clip error

MacPro HDV captured into PPCS4, export OK to Adobe Clip Notes streaming, uploads .mov file to my FTP site OK. The .mov clip plays fine locally in QT. When I open the clip notes pdf in Acrobat 9 Reader for Mac or Acrobat 8 Pro on Vista, both give the same error on opening: Javascript window - error reading media clip. The clip does not load into the pdf, and I can not get error information to debug.
Answer: I need QT streaming server. The Clip Notes streaming is true streaming, not progressive-download or pseudo-streaming. I did not see this in the Premiere CS4 documentation.

I'm using Vista 64.
I was having the same problem with the transport controls not showing up.
I set AcroRd32.exe to run in XP mode and that fixed the problem with the embedded movie file.
Transport controls show up.
Thanks.
I hoped that would also fix the QT streaming problem.
However, if I select "Streaming" and upload it to my server then when the Clip Notes tries to play the file it says "
This happened also before I set AcroRd32 to XP mode.
No problem with "Clip Notes Windows Media" format. It uploads and plays fine.
The .mov file is on the server. I can play it fine in a browser.
Any ideas why Adobe Reader won't play a streaming .mov file in Clip Notes, but will play a streaming .wmv file?
You really need to use QT so you can scrub the timeline.
.wmv files don't let you scrub!
Adobe why haven't you after all these years made Clip Notes use flash?
If you did it would truly be cross-platform.

Clip Notes + Streaming QuickTime = broken?

I guess this is more of an AME or Reader issue, but figure that PPro users are the most common users of Clip Notes...
I've tried exporting a Clip Notes PDF with streaming QuickTime video from both PPro CS3 + AME, PPro CS4 + AME, and standalone AME CS4, and all of them report an error: "Acrobat has encountered an error while playing this media clip:"
If I use QT but select to embed the file, it works fine. If I use WMV, either embedded or streamed, it works fine. I have confirmed that I'm setting the URL correctly in the Clip Notes settings. The QT spit out by the Clip Notes export plays fine in QT Player, so I know the video itself isn't broken. I'm attempting to play/view these using Reader 8.1.3.
Obviously, the solution would be to not use QT, or to at least embed it, but it's a much larger file than can be comfortably sent to my client (who isn't that technologically savvy). I like the QT option because of the ability to easily navigate/rewind the video.
Anyone else experiencing issues with Clip Notes and streaming QuickTime?

Clip Notes timecode issues

When I export a portion of the timeline as a Clip Note, the PDF viewer always shows the starting frame as 00. When I import the Clip Note comments, the comments appear but always referenced to the first frame of the sequence and not to the portion of the sequence I exported.
Any ideas, or is this just a bug?

Quicktime won't play videos online. ???

I just downloaded quicktime, and then restarted my computer. But it still won't play videos online. I'm not sure if it is like this for all sites, but i have one site in particular that won't play videos. Any ideas? I have Windows 7 by the way.

I come across this a lot, actually. I'm tired of having to switch to Firefox in order to view certain quicktimes. Here's a clip that won't play for me:
http://www.chartoonz.com/index.html
I can't figure it out because Safari will play quicktimes, even other h264 quicktimes, but then I'll run across an h264 on someone's site and I get the question mark.

I am having problems using mov files imported into a project. I get the message "Not rendered" in the Canvas and clip won't play. Can anyone help?

When clips won't play without rendering in the Timeline, it usually means that the clip's specs don't match the Sequence settings.
A .mov file could be made from any number of codecs; the QuickTime Movie designation is merely a container for video files of all kinds. Since FCE only works with the QuickTime DV codec and the Apple Intermediate Codec (AIC) natively, if your mov files aren't one of those two, you need to convert them PRIOR to importing into your FCE project.

Clip Notes in CS4/Acrobat 9: exports transcript, no controls for QuickTime

When I use the Transcribe feature, then export my project to Clip Notes, it exports every transcribed word as a separate comment. There doesn't seem to be any way of suppressing that, and there doesn't seem to be a way of deleting a transcription either in PP or in Acrobat. The result is that the reviewer sees all these comments and has to fight with Acrobat to insert new comments. When I import the xfdf back into PP, I get the whole transcription loaded into markers along with the reviewer's comments. Unless I open every one, I can't tell what's what.
Is there at least a way of deleting the transcription in PP or Acrobat?
Also, if I export the video as QuickTime, there are no player controls in Acrobat. I only get player controls if I export as Windows Media. That means that some Mac users won't be able to use my Clip Notes exports. I've seen others asking about this, but no answers. Any ideas? I'm running this under Windows Vista Ultimate.

But I find it amazing that there's no way to delete the damn thing. Adobe made a big deal of transcription, but it seems they didn't regard it as more than a gimmick, since they did it half-baked. I think you're right that it's best not to use this "feature".
I don't know if it's necessarily half-baked, so much as it is an overly optimistic appraisal of the capability of the technology at this point in time. I mean, it does create words, and sometimes very interesting ones at that
What's interesting to me is that when I tested out the transcribe feature back when Adobe released the beta of Soundbooth CS4, it was MUCH more accurate--and I was testing it on the mixed, final soundtrack of a documentary captured from Betacam SP. The transcription wasn't anywhere near 100%, but it was actually usable. Now, it struggles on pristine audio from a single, clear voice track. Wish it wasn't so...
Anyway, you can stop the transcription from appearing in a Clip Notes export. Check out the following screenshot for the how-to:
