Corruption in AVCHD play

Whenever I import AVCHD from my Canon VIXIA HF-200 into PE12 it will play fine then for a few seconds it will pixelate and flash (corruption) for a few seconds then play okay again, in a five minute video it will do that 4 or 5 times and will render out that way. The raw video will play on another computer fine with no corruption, to be fare windows media player and the VCL player will do the same thing so it isn't just PE12. Sounds like a no brainer right, it's my computer. I've got more than enough horse-power and RAM and it's beatiful video until I get the second or two of corruption in every video.

I am correct in that your AVCHD video from your Canon camera has a file extension of .mts?
I am assuming that it is 1080p (1920 x 1080 @ 29.97 (NTSC) or 25 (PAL) progressive frames per second. What are you or the program setting for the project preset independant of whether you see an orange line over the Timeline content for the file (not talking about the orange line that run horizontally across the middle of either the video content or the audio content...this is over the Timeline content)?
What happens if you rename just the file extension from .mts to
.mov or .m2t or .m2ts
Does that have any impact on the Windows Media, VLC, Premiere Elements Timeline play back of the file?
Are you recording to a memory card (what rating)? How are you introducing the video to your computer from the camera?
How does the video play back in the camera?
Did you say that you had the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer with Premiere Elements, Windows Media, and VLC player?

HT201272 I downloaded an album but one of the songs is corrupted, it only plays for about 4 seconds. When I try to re-download using the iTunes Store and "Purchased", it won't give me the option to download it again. How can I get the song I PAID for!!??

Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting that track from your iTunes library and redownload it via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes.
If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if it re-downloads in the same state then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

How can I fix corrupted audiobooks category--plays too fast and is gravelly?

How can I fix corrupted audiobooks category--plays too fast and is gravelly? Other music categories are unaffected..

On the audio book (and podcast) playing screen there is a playback speed selector. It is the box on the right hand side of the screen right below the scrubber bar. It say either 1/2X, 1X or 2X, the playback speeds. Tap the box to cycle through the playback speeds.

Corrupt songs will play in quicktime - but won't copy to HDD.

Hi All,
Background/Symptoms: My macbook pro (2008 unibody) crashed a little while ago. It started being really sluggish, so I tried to install an update and during the update I got an error. I turned off the computer and it wouldn't boot past the apple logo. When I started it in Verbose mode I was getting a disk input output error.
What I've tried:
1. Took it to the genius bar, after the tests on the HDD he said that it appeared to be fine and to try reinstalling the OS.
2. I tried booting it up in target disk mode to copy my files over to my imac and was able to get off a good portion of my documents. When I tried to copy over music I would get an error 36 saying that it couldn't be copied, I went through the artists individually and it said this for about 90% of them.
3. I tried reinstalling snow leopard (that was my current OS) but about 1/4 the way through the install a big exclamation mark appeared and it said the install failed.
4. After the failure above, I did an archive and install of Leopard (not snow leopard) and was able to get the OS up and running.
Current Situation:
So with the semi success above, I can view my music in the previous systems folder from the macbook pro's new OS. When I try to add the music to itunes, it says it's corrupt and won't add. I get the same error (36) when I try to copy it from the previous systems folder to an external hard drive or just to the desktop of the macbook pro. Here is the weird thing. When I open the corrupt files in quicktime player, they play! On one of the songs that I'm testing, only the first 3 minutes plays and then it ends, but on most of the others it will play fully. Is there a way to scan for the corrupt songs and only copy over the ones that aren't corrupt?
Thanks in advance, please let me know if there are more details I can provide.
~Greg

I have experienced that when there is something a little quirky about the files. Personally, what I would do in your situation is use iTunes to convert the files to AAC using these instructions: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1550 Then see if the AACs transfer to the iPod.

.mp3 files that used to play now say 'the file is corrupt' but they play fine in google crome. Do you have problems with your default mp3 player?

I've posted a number of mp3 file links on our website. All have been functioning and playing well until this week, they are no longer playing when clicked on. The new tab opens, thinks, then says that the "video cannot be played because the file is corrupt". These files are able to be downloaded and played from individual computers and will play fine in other browsers - such as Google Chrome.
Not sure if there is an issue with Firefox default mp3 player?

I assume that this is because of the way the MP3 file is encoded.
Sample rate: 22050 Hz
Bitrate: 32 kb/s
If I open the file in a tab then I see a media player, but inspecting the page source shows a video tag with no source attribute, so Firefox seems to have a problem with decoding the media header despite the audio/mpeg content type.
I don't know what to do about this apart from playing the file in an external player or play the file via an object or embed tag to make Firefox use a plugin.
Using a bookmarklet like this to force an audio tag doesn't work as well:
<pre><nowiki>data:text/html,<audio src="%S" controls>
</nowiki></pre>

IPod touch won't play ANY music, only skips. All music plays when FROM ipod when plugged into iTunes. No, songs are not corrupt, I was playing an album through iTunes from my iPod and for no reason iTunes froze and now I'm having issues with my iPod.

So I was playing an album from my iPod through iTunes like normal, and the album ended. I switched to iTunes view to change to a new one and it said "iPod is done syncing" (I did not choose to sync, nor did anything appear different). I tried to click on a song to play and iTunes froze. I had to restart iTunes and when I ejected my iPod (properly) the syncing sign was still turning on my iPod. As of now my iPod only skips through every song I try to play, but when I plug it into iTunes every song FROM my iPod plays perfectly.
No, I do not want to "factory reset" my iPod. No I do not wish to do anything crazy long or hard to fix this. Everything was working fine before when it decided to do this with very little effort, therefore I would like it fixed with very little effort.
I have tried resycing my iPod multiple times (every time I eject it from iTunes it appears to do so properly [iPod icon goes away] but the syncing icon still appears on my iPod).
I have almost 58 GB of music on my iPod so I'm not interested in starting from scratch. Also a good portion of my music is on a computer I don't have access to anymore so that's out of the question. Since the music seems to be uncorrupted (still plays from iPod in iTunes) I want a way to fix this iPod issue without having to erase anything.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
You said:
No, I do not want to "factory reset" my iPod. No I do not wish to do anything crazy long or hard to fix this.
That may be necessary, It is not what you want to do/not do but what is required to resolve your problem.

DivX upgrade corrupted quicktime AVI playing ability

I recently upgraded my DivX player and converter, after doing this my Quicktime player stopped playing AVI files. which is probably a good 85% of my videos and movies which i cant get to reformat to Mp4, MPEG or any of the other formats that it will play. Anyone have this happen before or have an idea of how to fix. and yes i have already tried to uninstall all the DivX components and it didn't resolve the issue at all.

and yes i have already tried to uninstall all the DivX components and it didn't resolve the issue at all.
Was QT 7 closed while you did this? QT 7 initializes the codec list each time the player is opened. So if the player was open while you uninstalled the codecs, the the changes would not be recognized.
Anyone have this happen before or have an idea of how to fix.
If you have the Perian package installed and had no previous codec conflict problems with the older DivX component, you might also try removing and reinstalling the Perian package. Some users have reported that DivX and Perian codec components may conflict with one another when installed in one relative order but not another. I.e., it appears the order in which codec components are initialized may or may not create problems.

Have you tried using the free HandBrake utility to convert your AVI files to MPEG-4/MPEG-4 AVC in MP4 and/or M4V file containers?

Windows Media Player 12, Windows 7 does not play AVCHD (.mts) video in embedded mode, but does in normal mode

I've run into a problem with WMP 12 on Windows 7 involved in playback of AVCHD files. When run in 'normal' mode from Windows Explorer, WMP opens the video file and plays it back beautifully. However, I'm building an application with
WMP embedded. When running WMP from within the application (c#), the same AVCHD plays audio but no video.
I've seen this type of problem before with respect to audio playback of mp4 files in WMP from embedded-mode: the MP4 license prohibited audio playback when run from embedded mode but played the audio fine when WMP was launched from explorer.
I was able to solve this particular problem by using a 3rd party codec pack.
In this case, I've tried a number of packs K-Lite, etc., but to no avail. My problem persists. I suspect perhaps I've encountered a similar licensing-type issue with a SONY CODEC and the state in which WMP is playing back files but I
have not yet been able to track it down.
Any ideas?

Hello,
It seems that you are using the Windows Media Player control in a window form forum,
as far as I know, the Windows Media Player control does not raise an exception when it encounters an error such as an invalid URL. Instead, it signals an event. Please try to set an event to try to catch the expcetion as described in the link below:

Error 69 corruption fixing advice and further questions

a few months ago i started getting error 69. i consulted apple who told me to use their method. at first, i tried syncing but i had problems syncing as it would take way too long and i would actually fall asleep. i also noticed that if i tried syncing the same area again, i might find different files, suggesting that they had been skipped over or the corruption was spreading. i found 10 files and then gave up because the syncs took too long.
A few weeks ago, a friend of mine suggested i split them into groups and sync, which i tried.
at first i copied all artists into a a file of their letter, example:
playlist 'A'
-artist>>is>>(Name of artist)
(repeat)
and for unknown artists, i rated them all with 1 star and listed it like:
playlist 'Unknown Artist'
-album rating>>is>>1star
i did this until all artists of one letter were in the playlist, as far as i knew. i also checked "only add checked songs" because the already found corrupted files were unchecked.
when the playlists were complete, i started the process. i would sync to the ipod while watching the top bar for the bad files. while doing this i noticed that the files did not take as long to sync as the first time i had tried. after, i would review all the files synced in the ipod to check if all would play fine. while doing this i found that sometimes, the ipod would make noises when starting a new song.
i found all the bad files i could find like that (101 files in total), deleted and replaced them all.
after doing this, i thought i was done, and attempted to sync all playlists. it was taking very long again and making very loud and weird noises. i tried calling apple but it was too late, so i researched and found something that said the newest version of itunes syncs faster. i downloaded the newest version last night, planning to call in, tell of these new problems, to find if they had anything to do with the corruption, and sync this morning. This morning i called and told of my syncing problems and asked if they had anything to do with the message. the apple expert told me that i should bring the ipod in to be looked at in an apple store and i am planning to do that soon. i then started to wonder if it could be problems with the ipod (i have and ipod classic) rather than itunes and my music files.
i decided to sync, feeling that most likely i had found all the corrupted files. the ipod was still taking very long to sync. i also noticed that there were only 2400 files in total being synced to my ipod while in total i have 2566. halfway through the sync, i recieved an error 69 message.
i decided that the error is probably within the 166 that i missed and proceded to change the smart playlist setup as so:
Playlist 'A'
-artist>>starts with>>A
i continued this for all letters and for unknown artists:
Playlist 'Unknown Artist'
-artist>>does not contain>>A
(repeat until all letters and numbers are covered, so that it would give me all songs who's artist's names contained no letters or numbers. i did not add symbols because i do not have any artists starting with symbols, therefore found it irrelevant.)
when i added up the contents of the finished playlists, i found that i only had 2556 song on the playlists which means 10 are missing. i have not yet proceeded to try and fix my problems again. instead i did more research.
after telling my full situation, and researching a bit, i have a few questions:
1.is there a way to categorize the songs into playlists that guarantees no songs will be left out?
2.what kind of corruption causes error 69? (note: the corrupted files would play on itunes and windows media player fine, but would not sync to the ipod. also, if a corrupted file was skipped, it would sync to the ipod, and not give an error message, but simply not play on the ipod.)
3.are there different kinds of corruption that causes error 69? do they have names? please explain them.
4.can the corruption spread? if so, how? through itunes? through my actual music folder? and how long does it take? (note: i keep my music sorted by artists, alphabetically, from A-Unknown. when trying to play on the ipod, i found MANY (about half) of my 'H' playlist would not play, meaning they were corrupted and had been skipped. i also found that if 1 song from a given artist was affected, 1-2 others usually were, and in extreme cases, all songs by the given artist. Also, these problems started around May-June of this year {2009} and i started using the categorization method in September of this year.)
5.could the problems have been caused by the ipod itself, meaning that all this work i've done was a waste of time? could they be fixed with repairs, or simply getting a new ipod? (note: in my research i have found people who claim that after repairs or getting new ipods, their ipods synced fine, with no problems. Also i have found people who claim that this is a problem with the ipod's timing, and if play/pause is pressed rapidly and repeatedly on the ipod itself when the error 69 message appears, the ipod will keep syncing, or that the error message can be bypassed by clicking 'OK' on it,right clicking the ipod sign on the bar that contains library, store, devices, and etc., clicking "Reset Warnings", and then clicking 'sync' again. Source: http://www.ghacks.net/2007/12/03/itunes-error-69-when-syncing-ipod/ )
6.could these problems be fixed by uninstalling itunes and using a 3rd party audio management software, such as Media Monkey or Fobar200? (note: there is a person who claims that this error is part of many 'traps' set up by apple and that by using a third party program, these errors become nonexistent, and all files will sync perfectly. Source: http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/678275 )
Sorry for the long post but i wanted to get all information and questions down to get to the bottom of this problem.
Please help as best ash you can.

Why doesn't my converted video play in iTunes but on my iPad?

Hey folks,
I most recently converted my AVI DVD Backups to comply with my iTunes / iPad / iPhone environment.
One of the TV Shows ("Arrested Development" if anyone cares) shows some kind of awkward behavior:
Device
Sync / add to Library
Plays
iTunes
yes
no
iPhone 4
yes
yes
iPad 1
yes
yes
The files doesn't seem to be corrupt, as they play perfectly fine on VLC, but when I launch them in iTunes the Video window opens in the correct size, but remains black. Even if I stream the movies through home sharing to other iOS devices it plays fine. I used iFlicks to convert the files.
File metrics:
Thanks

ITunes 8.2.1.6 will not play most of the songs in my library

Since downloading iTunes 8.2.1.6 most of the songs in my library will not play on my computer. I am afraid to update my iPod for that reason. It is not album specific or iTunes purchased/cd ripped/ or internet downloaded specific either. Has affected songs in all categories. When I right click on "Info" of these songs I have found that they are recognised as AAC audio files - but "Profile", "Channel" & "Encoded by" headings & information is absent. Songs are present on my hard drive & do not appear to be any different than other songs on the same albums added at the same time & which do play in iTunes !!
My Library holds over 300 GB's of songs & I guess over 80% are affected .. Any help or suggestions to solve this major problem would be much appreciated ..

iTunes refuses to play/read file, it cannot recognizes headers, or recognizes those as corrupt, but giving no error messages. The problem is the stored artwork(s) on your music files. To correct this, select the files that are corrupted/cannot be played on iTunes&iPod, click "Convert ID3 Tags...", then select v1.1 from the dropdown box (first, try this on a few to see that my solution is working).
By doing so, iTunes replaces headers, but your ID3 tags will not be changed (I assume you are using ID3 v2.4), nor you'll lose any info or anything else. This works as a hotfix for those files. If you try to replace headers via another program, your information will be truncated, and any artwork stored will be deleted. So I recommend this one.
You'll see that iTunes cannot play most of the files that has artwork(s) stored in them. New version hasn't fixed this problem, and it has risen with iTunes 8.2.x. If it's going to take long, I suggest you should go back to 8.1.x.
With best regards,
lyravega, goekhan.
