Clips encoded using format Windows Media not playing on WMP

Aloha folks,
Has anyone had this little glitch...have no idea if its my machine or encoder being short a codec.  The file loads but will not play.  The file does not appear to have any problems within the Preferences
thx...don

Aloha Don,
WMV files, and I assume that this is what you mean, can be tough to edit. Having the proper CODEC is for playability, and not editability. Some do, but some do not. See this ARTICLE, and you'll get a bit of an idea of what can be in that "wrapper."
Windows Movie Maker will likely Import and edit these files. You can Export as DV-AVI Type I, and that will probably do OK in PrPro, though there can be OOS issues with Type I files, as PrPro likes Type II's much better.
Good luck,
Hunt

    When I have video clips on my timeline, they do not play in the monitor screen. I hear the sound track but can not see the image. To test if my new files are somehow the problem, I went back and used video files that I used successfully a year ago, and they no longer play in the monitor window. I hear the sound track, but do not see any video. Have I changed some setting that controls video playback in the monitor window?

    Thanks for the follow up.
    Missing in this equation were the version of Premiere Elements that you were using and the computer operating system on which it was running. But...
    The deed is done. But.....Until now and after you went ahead and moved to version 12, we now learn what version of Premiere Elements you were using. We still do not know the computer operating system involved.
    You just said Premiere Elements 10. Premiere Elements 10 is hit by a serious known display issue if the computer uses a NVIDIA GeForce video card/graphics card. In this issue, the only remedy is to roll back the driver version to about May 2013. The description of the problem and how to do the roll back are described in one of the Announcements at the top of this forum. What video card/graphics card does your computer use?
    On another front, Adobe will be releasing a new version of Premiere Elements any day now. No one but Adobe knows the feature set for the new version. That type of information is announced at the moment of release of the new version.
    So the remedy to the problem that you presented in this thread could have been...
    1. Rolling back the NVIDIA GeForce driver version to about May 2013 if possible (Windows 8 or 8.1 64 bit, may not be possible)
    2. Move to another version of Premiere Elements (which you did)
    I offer the above for consideration so that you can review your decisions. We are pleased to learn that Premiere Elements 12/12.1 works for you.
    Please do not hesitate to ask questions and ask for clarifications, but remember that the answers are in the details.
    Best wishes,

  • Advice on how to make Windows Media Player play DVD's not the Tosh player

    I do not want to use the pre-installed Toshiba Media Player to play DVD's, I want to use the installed Windows Media Player. I cannot change the default DVD player to WMP in Control Panel as the only options are either Toshiba's or Nero's player.
    WMP can play CD's, MP3's etc but cannot even read any DVD in the drive. Anyone got any advice on how to do change this?
    It;s a Toshiba Satellite Pro C850 with Windows 8 installed

    The free KLite Codec pack which equips the OS including Media Player for DVD decoding, thus all your currently and even most future installed players. http://codecguide.com/
    It comes in varying sizes but even the smallest version enables WMP for DVD's
    After installing KLite, you right click the DVD drive within Windows and select the "Open With" or "Play Disc" menu option and select Windows Media Player.
    You can also just use the Windows Run Box / Search box and enter
    dvdplay
    which activates windows Media Player DVD menus.
    Microsoft hasn't always included DVD playback in Windows and then started offered it as a fee based upgrade for XP and Vista, before finally including DVD playback in Windows 7 in what some Microsoft insiders said was an apology for Vista before removing it again in Windows 8.

  • Widescreen footage using the windows media encoder of Matrox 100

    I use PPRO 2.0 with the matrox 100 card. I will encode a footage, shoot in widescreen. Normally when I have a 4:3 picture I use the Matrox mediaencoding for WMP and this works fine. But the matrox mediaencoder settings doesn't have a widescreen setting.
    Using the PPRO encoder in widescreen setting,  the picture is distorted, maybe because of the many time dicussed Matrox system.
    Can anyone give me suggestions to encode a matrox build footage into a mediaencoded footage using the matrox media encoder or otherwise?
    Thanks
    Chris

    Thanks for replying.
    The solution I finally use is to export the AVI in windows media encoder and encode it to WMV format. This works but is as bit more time consuming than directly use the Matrox encoder in PPRO as I use for 4:3 footages (which have no widescreen option).

  • "NOT RESPONDING" message whenever I start using my Windows Media Player

    I don't know what it is that causes this - if it's something to do with having the lesser expensive Hewlett-Packard computers, but this is the 2nd HP laptop I've had and the one thing I've had in common w/both of them is that, one, I got them for under $500 - about $445 or so, w/tax...anyway, I suppose that the more expensive HPs are better and wouldn't have petty problems like this - but anyway, - the last one I had & this one I currently have - the last one was a Windows 7 and this one is Windows 8, so the O/S has nothing to do w/my problem.  Anyway, it's like this:  every time I turn on the PC, then get it all revved up & ready to go, etc. when I turn on my Windows Media Player (WMP) the thing comes up on screen and it sometimes takes a few seconds, since I have about 740 CDs worth of music on here, but anyway, once the CDs show up on the WMP album page (where they're put up in alpha. order of LP name, as opposed to artist names, etc) - and so, when I go from the "A"s downward, just paging through it, looking for something to listen to, for instance, it ALWAYS, inevitably, without fail, gets stuck, sometimes sooner, sometimes later, but usually by the time I get to the Cs or  Ds, the thing gets stuck and freezes up on me and I can't do anything w/it. Then, when I try to click the mouse a couple times or whatever, I get a message at the top of the WMP box - on the top of the box it reads "Windows Media Player", like usual, but when it freezes up like this and it stays stuck for anywhere from 10 seconds up to a minute sometimes, the message that pops up right next to the "WMP" label on the blue border reads "NOT RESPONDING".  99% of the time, it just takes a little patience and sometimes just clicking the mouse buttons a few times and/or hitting a few keys on the keyboard (not hard, just randomly pressing down on some) - then it will finally come back & unfreeze and I'm usually able to continue browsing through my catalog, but there has been other times when it seems to be in worse shape - it'll read "NOT RESPONDING" for a while and no matter how much I click the left or right mouse buttons, tap the mouse on the pad, or whatever, it might come unstuck for a few seconds, then, I think I'm OK again, but sometimes, as soon as it looks unstuck, I can't get it to move at all and right away the "NOT RESPONDING" message comes right back up (and the page fades a little too) - in fact, lately, just before I did a refresh thing on my PC to try & get things to work better, it was giving me big trouble, it would just sit there, stuck, frozen up and nothing I did would unfreeze it.  I'd be frantically trying to unstick it, but no matter what I did, it'd still be frozen and when it does that, I can't get it to do anything.  Recently, when it would do this, sometimes, if I had not tried to get too far down in the alphabet, I can get a certain album open and get it to start playing, but the "NOT RESPONDING" message will pop up now and again, but the music will play all right, uninterrupted. 
    Anyway, this is very annoying.  It's been happening for so long now, that I basically take it for granted that it's going to freeze up on me when I 1st bring it up.  I have no idea what's causing this to happen; like I said, this happened when I had a previous HP laptop that was working with Windows 7.
    Kind of a long-winded way of putting this issue to anyone, but I just wanted to be clear and specific. 
    Is there ANYONE out there who owns a cheapo HP? (not a Compaq, the computer co. HP bought for that purpose, to make their cheap computers and differentiate them from the HPs) - But I wonder, it's been so long since I've even checked -does Compaq even exist anymore as a separate entity from parent co. HP?  If not, then that explains why there's a difference between HP laptops that are $400 or so (at Best Buy) and the more slick, expensive HP laptops that have all the bells & whistles and usually run over $1000.  Of course, I'm not about to shell out twice as much money to buy an HP just to see if the more expensive ones don't behave the way their cheap models do.  I also had a Toshiba I bought about 3-4 years ago and I had even more problems with that - one instance was when the CD drive went out on me and I had to ship it in to HP (still under warranty, thank heavens) and they put a new drive in and shipped it back to me.  It also crashed one time, and got infected with a virus or two or three, which meant I had to re-set the computer back to the original factory settings and, not having an external hard-drive with which to back up all my music, pix, documents, etc (my music is the most important stuff on my computer to me), which meant that I had to go through this long hassle of replacing all the music I'd lost. I have a lot of my own hard copies of CDs, but there were so many more CDs that I didn't have copies of, so I had to visit the library over & over, checking out as many as 25-30 CDs at a time on a lucky day, when the library had a lot of the CDs I needed to replace in my WMP.  I don't want this to happen again, so I am going to get an external hardrive but I still don't know for sure if that would work. At least, by resetting the PC to factory settings I was able to get rid of the virus(es) that were screwing my computer up badly 
    So - has anyone out there had any similar problems?  If so, I would appreciate any help or suggestions you may have as to how to deal with this sort of thing. 
    Thanks a lot.  Hope to hear from one of you out there in the future. 
    Have a nice 4th...

  • Using ITunes Tutorials will not play.  Using windows XP.  All software up to date.  I know others have had the same issue, however I have not seen a solution.  I appreciate any advice.

    iTunes Tutorials iwll not play.   Using windows XP.  All software up to date.  I know others have had the same issue, however I have not seen a solution.  I appreciate any advice.

    I have traced the problem to a corrupted profile.  When I captured the images in question, I also used Color Cherckr to create a profile for processing.  When I apply that profile to the adjustments I make, I can no longer "Edit In".  If I use another profile, even one that I created using Color Checkr at a different point in time, I don't have the issue.  Something seems to have corrupted the new profile.  I will re-create the profile and see if the issue is resolved.

  • "Offline material is present in this export and will be encoded using the offline media graphic"

    This comes up every so often with my renders.  I have a 28:30 minute project that is 100% complete.  All the files are present locally, and nothing shows as offline or missing.  I've gone through the final sequence frame by frame and NOTHING is offline or missing.  But when I want to send it out to export, I get the message above in the title.
    What's strage is if I ignore it, then sometimes the final render WILL have display the offline graphic even though it didn't display as such in the Premiere timeline.
    Often, restarting Premiere and reopening the project irons that glitch out just fine, but I have one particular project that seems to do it every time. I've tried the "import into a new project" trick, but with no luck.
    Clueless in Exportville

    Hey Guys,
    Anybody find a solution to this yet? I am working with Premiere Pro cs5, working with r3d footage, and am having the "offline material is present" error pop up when I try to export using adobe media encoder. Prior to that error box popping up, there is another dialogue box that says that premiere has detected that there is an update to media encoder, I am running media encoder 5.01 and tried to update it but it tells me all files are up to date.
    Anyways back to the problem, there is only one shot that is affected and is rendered with the offline media image( this clip also happens to be a different colour(green or teal) than the other clips in my sequence(which are blue or greyish), not sure if this is an indication of anything. I reimported the clip, and re did the edits and then exported just that new small section to see if the error would happen again,this time however, when I did the export, instead of  "queue", I just hit "export" ,and the export happened without media encoder actually opening. The file came out fine,even though I had the offline media present pop up, the video was all good. I know I changed a couple of variables in that troubleshooting, so now I am trying the entire sequence with the "export" button instead of "queue" button in the media encoder pop up box, hopefully that will help. The only downside is that it seams like it takes way longer to export this way than in the queue.
    I'll report back to let you know if that helps and if I can reproduce the error with the "queue" button.
    EDIT
    Both exports worked, so it must have been due to the re importing and re editing of the clips, however I still get the error message "offline material is present..." I guess I'll see what happens next time I do an export. Cross my fingers.

  • 3GPP media not playing correctly with QT7.1

    Hi!
    I have one file (3GPP media) that plays awfully bad with QT7.1. There are a lot of "squares" and strange colors that appears the whole time while playing. The same file plays OK with a free player called VideoLAN (VLC). Why can not QT7.1 play the same file as good as VLC on the same computer? What can I do to fix this?

    i did read somewhere a while back that Cyberlink (creators of PowerDVD) were developing a software MPEG2 encoder that would allow software-driven analog tuners to work with MCE, but i haven't heard anything since...
    the actual limitation is down to Microsoft themselves

  • Windows iTunes not playing any music

    I have iTunes and just recently it is not playing music. Other music files will not play as I have set iTunes as my default player. But videos will play. Also, when I play music on another media player like Windows Media Player and RealPlayer music plays. In iTunes the pinhead telling the time of the song does not move. On my keyborad I have always been able to press a button that would raise, lower or mute audio. I cannot change the volume of the computer and whenever i press the mute button it says "Mute Off" no matter how many times I push it. Finally, in the bottom right hand corner of the computer where the small icons are there used to be a volume control button. That is no longer there and I have set Windows to always have it in the toolbar. If anyone could help me it would be great! Thanks.

    okay, that rules out a creepy possibility.
    let's try for some more standard problems.
    if you're running itunes 5.0.0.35, 5.0.1.3, 6.0.0.18 or 6.0.1.3
    try:
    iTunes for Windows: Audio files do not play in iTunes 5 or 6
    if you're running a higher version of itunes, or the compatibility settings thing doesn't seem to be a factor
    try a careful standalone QT 7.0.4 reinstall.
    download and save a copy of the QT 7.0.4 installer to your hard drive. (we'll run the install from there rather than online.) switch off any antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the install.
    Quicktime 7.0.4 Standalone Installer
    if that install goes through okay, does your itunes play back properly again?

  • Export options for use with Windows Media Player

    In Captivate 5, what formats can be exported to (now that AVI is no longer a choice) that will work with Windows Media Player? Unfortunately a Flash based file is not an option in this instance.

    Hi there
    You could publish from Captivate as FLV or F4V, then use a conversion utility to convert to AVI if you want.
    Cheers... Rick

  • CVP Media not played

    Hi,
    I am presently setting up a lab to test CVP applications. My setup is quite simple with CVP 8.0, Voice Gateway 2811 and Layer 2 switch, ICM components ICM 8.0 ON Vmware. I started with CVP Comprehensive setup and found the media not beign played. Troubleshooting this further i have gone to very basic of playing a Hello World App using Standalone setup. Tryng to kick in a basic hello world also does not play the successful installation of VXML Server.
    The setup is simple as x-lite(ip)  phone calling 1002(Dialed number) on the Ingress/VXML gateway further initiating the Hello World Apps. The show http client gives me a clear url and having that pasted on the web browser plays the file too.(logs attached).
    Debugging vxml shows me a handoff error but i am not able to figure out the exact problem. I have tried the IOS as recommended in the BOM for 8.0 and few ios are as below.
    c2800nm-advipservicesk9-mz.151-3.T.bin
    c2800nm-advipservicesk9-mz.124-24.T2.bin
    Hope i am not missing on anything simple here.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    I have replaced the handoff file but results are still the same. Pls let me know how do i attach the files as it is not giving me any option to attach. Anyway logs are blow.

    When I try to read PDF files, windows media opens not Acrobat reader, although I have checked acrobat reader to open these files.

    fwiw - A combination of Acrobat / Adobe Reader that are not the same release is not recommended/supported by Adobe.
    As long as you have to use Acrobat 9 it'd be best to stay with Adobe Reader 9.
    Good to know is that the Acrobat 9.x product family passed into "End of Support" mid-year 2013 and is not compatible with contemporary OSs.
    Be well...

  • Using a video purchased from itunes for use in windows media player

    I purchased a tv show on itunes and I was wondering if there was any possible way to view the video using windows media player,
    thanks

    Sorry but no. The copy protection will only allow play in iTunes or on a video-capable iPod.

  • How can i download movies from a website that use the windows media extention it specifically sends the media through the windows media extension

    '''there is a website i visit frequently and i have tried all the downloader extensions how do i download the movie from the sight if it uses windows media extension'''

    Thanks for the excellent advice, all! I started with BitPim, and have hit a bit of a deadend with the application not being able to detect the phone - I can manually set the port location to the phone (and it shows up as an LG device), but then get a "false" and no connection. So I suspect that's something on the phone end blocking access from a computer via USB... I'll dig around on that a bit.
    Thanks, also, for the suggestion to buy a BlueTooth adapter - that's my next step in this... although after reading the link/review about Verizon's attitude toward open file transfer, I may be severing my ties with them. I've been happy with the phone service, but this is really annoying.
    This is what happens when you assume that Mac people exist in the rest of the corporate sphere..! To think that I would assume that a phone/camera with a USB cable would actually be capable of connecting to a computer and transferring files!
    Thanks, again!
