DVCPRO HD and QuickTime Player 7.6.6 (1709) Pro

1. A video production company gave us 500 GB of .mov files with the DVCPRO HD codec.
2. QuickTime Player 7.6.6 (1709) Pro does not read the files. It gives this error message:
"The document "BEFORE-A1" could not be opened. A required codec isn't available."
I read the 2010 thread on "Cannot play a .mov file on quicktime" and I'm wondering if one of these plugins will work from this web address:
DivX
Streambox
Autodesk
Flip4Mac
Glue Tools
MXF4Mac
Please help. Thanks

Don't know about those that you have listed. The codec DVCPro is part of the package installed when you purchase Final Cut Pro. But it looks like there's aftermarket providers of these codecs one of them being this company:
http://www.calibratedsoftware.com/store/MacOSXIndividualStore.asp
You might also ask if the video production company could send you a zip file of the codec from one of their Final Cut workstations. We had similar situation where I work only the production company was usinga NewTek video codec (SQ2). We had to beg them for the installer which they put up on a website temporarily and we downloaded it. We had no other way to view and transcode without that original codec.

  • How do I update my iTunes because I accedently only updated iTunes and not iCloud thing and quicktime player. How do I do it?

    The window of iTunes updater popped up and I accedently only downloaded the iTunes and not iCloud thing and Quicktime player. Any ideas how I can download them now?

    Go "Start > All programs > Apple Software Update". When Apple Software Update launches, does it offer you the QuickTime and iCloud updates?

  • Where do I find Windows Media and Quicktime player I need them for online classes

    For Angel learning I need windows Media and QuickTime player for the site to work properly. I had both add-ons in my earlier version of Firefox but they didn't carry over into Firefox 4 I'm disappointed in this version the look sucks and the pop-up blocker menu doesn't work.

    Go to the following page:
    [[http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/downloads/windows-media-player]]
    That's the download page for WMP. Use WMP 10.

  • HT3775 mpeg-2 file using OS 10.8.2 and Quicktime Player 10.2

    I'm trying to open an mpeg-2 file with Quicktime Player 10.2 and OS 10.8.2. Apple says the playback component for earlier versions of Quicktime is already built in to this version, but I'm getting video only--no audio. My Sony blue ray player has no trouble playing the same file via a flash drive and the USB port. Is there a component or an update that I need?

  • .avi files crash finder and quicktime player after Flip4Mac component mess

    The .avi files that are downloaded directly from my camera cause the finder to crash as it tries to preview, they will cause Quicktime Player to quit unexpectedly, and Final Cut Pro will see them as corrupt. The files still open in VLC so I know they aren't corrupt.
    I think this may have happened because the stupid 'Flip4Mac' program suggested that I remove some conflicting components. I accidentally lost them and I'm not sure which ones they were.
    I tried re-installing Quicktime 7.20, but that didn't seem to do it. Does anybody know which components I should be looking to re-install? Maybe the ones that commonly go with FCP and Quicktime? Or does anyone know which components Flip4Mac will identify as conflicting?

    http://perian.org for your AVI files.
    Remove any browser plug-in that has an x in it's name as Perian replaces them (with better compatibility).
    I don't use Flip4Mac but what I've read about it suggests it is used by WMP formats (not AVI).
    AVI was invented by Microsoft and they discontinued the container nearly ten years ago.

  • ITunes and QuickTime Player give me a QTCF.dll error when trying to launch

    When i try to open iTunes on my laptop it gives me an error saying:
    iTunes.exe - entry point not found
    The procedure entry point
    QTCF_CFUniCharGetUnicodePropertyDataForPlane could not be located in the dynamic link library QTCF.dll
    i also get a error for quick time player displaying the same message for Quick Time.exe
    i have uninstalled both programs and reinstalling them several times. i have also check to see if they work on other accounts on my laptop. they do not work.
    Message was edited by: Nemesis2010

    The procedure entry point QTCF_CFUniCharGetUnicodePropertyDataForPlane could not be located in the dynamic link library QTCF.dll
    The most common cause of that one is a misplaced older version of the QTCF.dll lurking about in your system. On an x64 system, the best place to start looking is in the C:\Windows\sysWOW64\ directory.
    Do you see a QTCF.dll lurking in there? If so, try dragging it out onto the desktop. Can you launch iTunes and QuickTime now?

  • ITunes and QuickTime Player

    I found a cool .WAV I want to use, but I cannot get it to work. Its icon is the music/iTunes one, but I need it to be QuickTime. I'm a newbie at this sound stuff...

    Drag the file into iTunes and convert or export it as needed, or drag it onto the QuickTime Player icon in the Dock and play it from there.

  • SSL and Quicktime Player: QT crashes if it opens a web video via https

    Hello,
    it was running some test-videos, I think, some weeks ago very well - as I can remember. After some days quicktime client starts crashing when it opens a .mp4 file from a https: connection. Thers a message concerning the certificate from quicktime then it crashes.
    It crashes also on another computer. Quicktime plays the same file via a http connection (that is not secured via ssl) very well.
    Safari is playing the https(ssl)-file with quicktime very well.
    If Safari runs the ssl video and finally completed do load the full video I can copy the https:-URL to Quicktime player - and it plays the video very well.
    Via quicktime streaming server the .mp4 runs too - but its not secured - I think
    What can I do? Thank you for any suggestion.
    Best regards.

    Dear Paul,
    thank you for your concerns - but I don´t want to give the address to the public.
    I hope for your understanding.
    Best regards

  • New to MAC and Quicktime player won't work

    Let me begin with the fact I just converted to a Mac using the Snow Leapord 10.6.6. So I am still learning the ropes. When I click on my Quicktime player icon on my docking station nothing happens and the application never opens. Shouldn't it open? I am used to the PC when you click on the Q icon the player would load. If it is suppose to open the player how do I fix that, since the Quicktime 10 player came standard on my macbook pro? Thanks so much!
    AKA: mac virgin

    Hello - I have the same problem as Matt since upgrading to Snow Leopard.
    My QT icon shows in the dock and the QT options are at the top of the page, but
    none of my videos work, and QT was already in place when I purchased my iMac.
    I've tried right-click and/or holding on the QT icon, but it doesn't give me the
    option to "remove from dock". I can't remove the icon from the dock at all.
    Any help would be gratefully received.

  • Quicktime player won't upgrade to Pro

    I've properly entered registration code and the panel shows that I've been upgraded but none of the Pro features are active and it still shows that I'm only able to use QuickTime Player. I've restarted computer which is running OS X 10.4.11 and Pro still doesn't show.

    no. the menu bar says QuickTime Player and the functions associated with Pro remain greyed out.

  • Cannot open TIFF files since installing iTunes and QuickTime Player.

    iTues+Quicktime is preventing use of Alternatiff, that is a Firefox plug-in TIFF image viewer, from displaying the image. Instead the Quicktime symbol appears but is unable to display the image. I uninstalled iTunes and without any other change, the plug-in works. I installed iTunes, making sure it is not selected as default media player. When iTunes started both it and Alternatiff plug-in functioned correctly. However, Upon exit from iTunes my TIFF viewer stopped working again. Uninstalling Quicktime (leaving iTunes) enables Altermatiff but then iTunes doesn't work
    It is critical that I get bot iTunes and a TIFF viewer plug in to work.
    HELP!!!

    Excellent news, Bulent!
    I hope Quicktime does not, later, try to take over again.
    Good point ... next time you do a QuickTime update directly from the Website:
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/
    ... very near the end of the install, there should be a screen with a "Configure File/MIME types" button. Click the button, go to the MIME types, and make sure that that TIFF image entry is unchecked. That should avoid the problem in future.

  • DVCPRO 50 and Quicktime

    Is the DVCPRO 50 codec part of the QT codec line up for Mac and windows? Or is it only part of FCP?
    -Lars

    Only part of FCP as I understand it. But the codecs might be downloadable from the Panasonic site.

    See Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates. It may pay to uninstalll all Apple components and delete the folders set out in the second box before reinstalling. In principle you ought not need to reinstall QuickTime.
