Compressor Error: "QuickTime Error: -6662"

Anybody know what "QuickTime Error -6662" is? I got this after a failed encoding. I was trying to transcode DV25 material down to the iPod format.(H.264 for iPod)

Interestingly, I modified the Compressor iPod preset to not do MultiPass and Compressor handles the files fine. Perhaps it did run out of memory, though the machine that I'm using has 2GB of RAM plus a lot of HD to spare. Perhaps the multipass mis-manages the memory? Or perhaps it did indeed just run out. Is there a recommendation for free HD space?(if Compressor caches to the drive)

Batch monitor Quicktime error -6662

Does anyone know what Quicktime error -6662 means.
This error was displayed on one of three alternate version of the same file in the batch monitor window. Two of the alternates finished with no errors, and one failed to finish, displaying this Quicktime error: QuickTime Error: -6662

Here's a little more info on the problems I'm having with compressor.
I noticed today when trying to launch compressor, it failed due to no video memory being available. This was due to a KVM being attached to the mac pro and when I shutdown the monitor at night this also diconnects the monitor via the KVM being powered down.
This may have an affect on the video cards memory, causing the video memory to show zero memory in compressor. Only restarting the mac, while connected to the monitor resolves the memory issue.

Final Cut Pro 7, Compressor, or Quicktime X do not recognize MobileMe

I'm having issues uploading my movies from Final Cut Pro, Compressor, or Quicktime X to MobileMe. For both FCP and QT X, when I "Share" using MobileMe, it says that either my Username or Password is wrong. I know for a fact it's not because I can use them to login here or on iTunes. It worked before, but now after I did a Pro Application software update, it doesn't let me. I'm not certain that's the direct problem, though. When I try with Compressor, it just tells me it failed uploading.
I tried using both "username" and "[email protected]"
If I use "[email protected]" it says there is some sharing error which I never heard about.
How can I fix this problem, or is anyone else also experiencing this bug?
BTW, every thing else works fine.
Thank you.

Have you tried the full login including "@me.com or @mac.com"? This seems to work as far as FCP or compressor "recognizing" the MobileMe account. Yet when I do it through compressor, even though it says the job is done and all is well it never actually uploads it to MobileMe. It seems to work fine through FCP though.

Compressor and Quicktime crippled

I am sitting here rather bewildered about the lack of speed in Compressor and Quicktime Pro 7 in regards to outputting a file to an iPod file at 640 x 480. 4 hours or more to compress 43 minutes of video? This is crazy considering that these applications are supposed to be "Native" to the intel chip now. I am using a new core2duo 17 inch laptop.
Talk about slow...I bought new equipment and software for this type of speed. I cannot help but wonder if th speed to the iPod setting was crippled so that we would buy more iPod TV episodes from iTunes.
Anybody have any methods for faster compression? I have tried the export from FCP to a self-contained movie. I then tried the compressor mode for the iPod, but changed the movie into a 640 x 480 standard. That is a little faster, but not much. I also tried the same thing in Quicktime, but that seemed just as slow.

The reason why it takes so long, is because H.264 is extremely demanding. 4 hours for 43 minutes sounds pretty normal to me.
What you could do, is to use MPEG-4 instead of the default iPod preset which uses H.264. Just select the iPod preset and change the codec from iPod for H.264 to MPEG-4.
iPod can play the following video formats:
H.264 video, up to 1.5 Mbps, 640 x 480, 30 frames per sec., Baseline Low-Complexity Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 kbps, 48 Khz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
H.264 video, up to 768 kbps, 320 x 240, 30 frames per sec., Baseline Profile up to Level 1.3 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 kbps, 48 Khz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 x 480, 30 frames per sec., Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 kbps, 48 Khz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats

Compressor 2 - Quicktime error 0 revealed

After upgrading to the latest version of QT, FCP5, DVDSP4, and Compressor 2 with all the latest fixes I could not compress a 1 hr 46 min video on my quad G5 without getting the dreaded quicktime 0 error message. I spent days trying to get around this and finally settled on getting the job done through DVDSP, (see my post "compressor 2 what works for me").
I finally decided to track down the problem by spliting my project in half to see which half was failing. Then I spilt that half in two and so on for hours until I found the problem video. Turns out I had a "spin 3D" transition between a slow motion clip at 50% and a clip at regular speed. I added 1 sec of regular speed to the slo mo clip so the transition would fall between to clips at regular speed and the problem was solved. My 1hr 46 min video compressed in 3hrs 30 min. (still not as quick as the 1 hr 10 min from DVDSP4 but thats another story).
Conclusion - "Quicktime error 0" seems to be Compressors way of saying "sorry this is too complex for me." I am sure there are other combinations of transitions, filters, etc. that will cause this problem as well so APPLE, IF YOU ARE READING THIS we need a fix.
I will try more expirements but complexity in the time line seems to be the cause of compressors failure due to quicktime error 0.

I am having the same issue. I have recently purchased quicktime pro and updated to lion, I dont know if that is that causes the failure but this *****! it's the 4rth time i try to compress a 15 minute file, it takes about 3 hours and when there is 10 minutes to go.... pooooof!!! game over!

Compressor error - Failed: Quicktime error 0

I'm sending my FCP sequence directly to Compressor and I'm getting this message after I submit: "Failed: Quicktime error 0". It's a 34 minute sequence. I'm using DVD Best Quality - 90 Minutes as my setting. I've googled this error and I'm seeing some folks suggest that there may be a corrupt file in the FCP sequence. Others say that it may be an insufficient RAM issue (not my issue). My questions:
- Has anyone seen this before? If so, how did you resolve?
- If this is due to a corrupt file, how would I go about finding that corrupt file?
Any help would be appreciated. I'm up against a deadline about to get into panic mode. thanks!

Michael,
Try cutting your sequence into ten minute segments to narrow down the problem, if indeed it is a corrupt clip or file.
You may also want to post your sequence settings, also do you have any stills in your timeline, if you do are they in RGB color space and not CYMK

Compressor error "QuickTime Error 0"

I am trying to compress a 7 min. video using Final Cut Studio outputting directly to compressor, after about 45 min. of compressing I get the error message "Failure Quicktime Error 0"
Settings: 2 pass VBR 6.7 - 7.2, 16 x 9
This movie does have alot of transitions, effects etc.
I am able to compress a Sorenson version for review.
Any guidence would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
James

...Some more info on this topic.
I tried the same process on another G5 and got the same error so I don't think it's a machine specific related problem. I also tried rendering the video via Quicktime export uncompressed and got the error: FXScript Divide by 0. Now I think it must be one of my effects or several that is causing the problem.
I am going to go back to previous versions of the project and see if I can render, then perhaps I can isolate the problem. I'll let you all know if I solve it. I have searched the threads and google but have only found more people with the problem and no solutions.
Thanks,
James

Compressor: Failed: QuickTimer Error: 0

When compressing with Compressor I get error message: Failed: QuickTime Error: 0
This happens when I am exporting from Final Cut Pro HD (photo Jpeg video), and also when I am compressing from Final Cut movie file (with current settings and not self contained).
Does anyone know what this error message means?
Cinema Craft encoded same files without problem!
Powemac G5, dual 2Ghz, 1.5 GB ram, 150 gb free disk space, OS X 10.4, all software with latest updates (freshly installed on formated drive)! I have even tried to turn off one processor with CHUD tool.
On G4 dual 1Ghz, 768 MB ram, OS X 10.3 works OK.
Thank you!

Use the System Profiler to review what is in the system and console logs. You may find a message or error there that will tell you more about what is happening. Note, there will almost certainly be other warnings or errors in these logs, that's fairly normal, you want to look for something that is related to QuickTime or Compressor (et.al.) or one of the files you are trying to process.

Compressor Fails "QuickTime Error: -50" for h.264 Encoding

When I try to compress movies of 720p resolution or greater to h.264 Compressor often fails right at the start with
"QuickTime Error: -50". Any idea what this is or whether there's a workaround?
This is on an 8-processor Mac Pro (16 GB RAM) configured for 7 distributed processors via Qmaster. Export from QuickTime Player works, but I'm not gaining any benefits of multiprocessors. Other compression (to, say, ProRes422) seems to work fine with these files.
I suspect some kind of memory issue, but it seems to only be happening for h.264 compression, and while these movies are rather large, this machine is quite the beast, with adequate RAM.
Help?

Hi:
I've been experiencing all sorts of issues with compressor, somewhat like this. I think my quicktime plug-ins are the culprit. Example, I have been exporting directly out of Motion with no problems lately, but when I export to Compressor I see my "Flip4Mac" import window several times, then Compressor either fails to export, or crashes.
I would suggest trying a direct export from FCP or Motion, or whatever your source is. See if that works. Just bypass Compressor and choose your HD DVD option from the export window. It does the trick with Motion.

Compressor Error Code -50.

Sent a FCP v7 movie to Compressor v4 for H264 conversion. First movie went just fine. Second movie has failed four times with Error Code -50. Any ideas?
Trying FCP conversion now.

Russ,
I usually have a problem explaining my issues in my mind.
Compressor faied on 5 occations trying to export to a .mov using the H264 cpdec, if I am using the correct language.
FCP was successful Exporting a Quicktime Movie, also a .mov, using the H264 codec.
Why Compressor failed and FCP was successful is my question now, or why is Compressor failing.
Thanks for the reply.
I don't know if I will have any issues like this with my new Mac Pro all the new FCP, Compressor, Motion, but this all was on my older G5 and I had to get them out before all is lost.

Compressor error mesage while trying to export

I how do I fix this issue while trying to export my project ? Tbhis message appears when trying to export.
"The operation couldn’t be completed. (com.apple.Compressor.CompressorKit.ErrorDomain error -1.)"

You probably need to update the software to a version that works with Mavericks.

Compressor Error- No Such File Or Directory Help!

I was trying to export something from final cut pro in compressor when compressor gave me the following error- Failed: HOST [Avi-Zephyras-iMac.local] error reading source file /Users/Avi/Movies/Final Cut Events/2012 Event/Original Media/Photo125: No such file or directory
I really would appreciate some help! Needs to be exported this weekend.

I got the same error message, and found a similarity in our two cases that led me to the solution
Both of our filenames had an "&" in them. Notice that your original filename was photo125&126, but the error message only said photo125? My file had an ampersand, but the error message similarly only listed the name up until the ampersand.
So I duplicated the file in Finder, removed the original from my project and replaced it with the new one, sans &, and it worked just fine! And it's my first distributed encode with Compressor and Qmaster, so double win!

Compressor error message "Unable to connect to background process"

My compressor application became corrupted and showed 2220 hours to convert a FCP file of 65 min to a 90 min mpeg2. After re-installing Compressor every time I try to submit a file I get the error message "Unable to connect to background process"? I tried resetting the background as instructed in the manual but continue to get the same message?
Anybody ever encountered this problem?

Ya I am also getting the same problem I asked here on forum.
