Error playing Motion JPEG 2000 video

I just cannot get to play a video file that was encoded to Motion JPEG 2000 lossless format - when opening "an unknown error ocurred". Does Quicktime support this specific format, is there a difference between the free application and Quicktime Pro?
The file itself is ok since I can play it using ffmpeg's command utility ffplay.exe

I don't use that, but a quick Google shows there is a specific codec to install... maybe several versions, such as paid or free?

Playing Motion JPEG

I have an old analog capture card on my PC (miro dc20). I would like to be able to play these motion jpeg files on my mac and edit them as well. Usually you can just download a motion jpeg codec for the pc and it will play these old files. What is the solution for my mac so I can throw the old frozen TV dinner box they call a pc out the window?

I found a workaround solution for my problem. It won't allow me to play my old files but if I just convert them on my PC to a .mov in DV format, the results are perfect. It stinks because I have about 500 music videos in the old format and they will all have to be converted. I'll just convert as I go I guess. I'm still curious if there is a codect though. My G5 will encode alot faster than my 450 mhz Dell

AVC HD from Panasonic Lumix movie mode does not play on the iPad. Motion JPEG mode does play the videos, however there is no sound. Any suggestions?

AVC HD movie mode from a Panasonic Lumix camera will not play on the iPad, the format in the camera is not compatible. However, Motion JPEG mode in the camera will play the video on the iPad but there is no sound. Any suggestions?

Ok, I was an old fool, there is indeed a setting on the Lumix LX5 camera which seems to allows both audio and video, although not AVC HD, the camera must be set to Motion JPEG and subsequently NOT to PICT Bridge, rather to PC for the output. Anyone who decides to purchase a Panasonic Lumix should be aware of this. The iPad 2 will display Lumix perfectly in 720p which is enough for the old fool. The Sony NEX5N at twice the cost will do 1080p, but on the iPad and our TV the difference I suspect will not be noticeable.

HT3775 Is there any thing I can do about playing a video that's avi through QuickTime Player that isn't apparently a motion JPEG only?

I am trying to play a show that is avi but it wont play because it isn't a "motion JPEG". Is there anything I can do about this or any application I can get that will work better than QuickTime Player?

HD - Motion JPEG-A vs Animation for home movies transferred to video ?

Hi,
A vendor offers a "1560x1080p HD" transfer of home movie film to one of 4 formats.
We'd like to preserve as much useful information as possible in case the very old film deteriorates, but also would consider editing in future. The choices:
High Definition Quicktime Motion JPEG-A - 50GB per hour
High Definition Quicktime Component video ~ 290GB per hour
High Definition Quicktime Animation ~ 370GB per hour
High Definition Quicktime Raw ~ 490GB per hour
They suggest Motion JPEG-A as a "a very good compromise between high quality images and a reasonable data rate" for most users."
To my eye (on a 21" computer screen) their 2 second clips look about the same (but the source doesn't seem very sharp). My 2009 iMac doesn't seem to choke on playing 2 second clips of each format.
Any help in choosing which format to order would be appreciated.

As far as the codecs, my unschooled tendency has been to avoid lossy compression when possible. (I always keep an original TIFF (LZW) image when converting to JPEG for import to PPT...)
This is fine if you have sufficient disk space available. However, there is quite a range of data rates here. Motion JPEG would allow about 19 hours of content to be stored per TB of storage space available while RAW reduces that amount to less than 2 hours. Since it is likely you would want to use this format for long-term archival storage, whatever drive(s) you you use to hold the data would be, more or less, "dedicated" to this purposed for as long as you intend to hold onto the data. Further, it you want to protect the data by RAID redundancy, these storage capacities could be reduced by as much as half-- i.e., less than one hour of RAW content per TB of drive space to less than 10 hours of RAW compressed video. So one very important question is how many hours of content are you talking about and how many drives/drive systems are you willing to dedicate to the non-temporary storage of your content.
I have no video editing experience (outside of fumbling with MPEG Streamclip).
MPEG Streamclip is a very handy utility and works fine for cutting and merging segments. However, if you plan to add titles, transitions, layer addition sound tracks, work with theme styles, or apply "motion" effects, then you will likely want to do your editing in a dedicated video editing app. And, since iMovie is probably already available to you on your current system, it would likely be something you will "play" with at some time or another in conjunction with the content mentioned. Hover, if this is the case, you will not want to re-compress the files for editing in the iMovie '08 (or later) app. As previously mentioned, the "new" version of iMovie does not like the Animation codec. And, which it will accept and "edit" the content, when exported by iMovie, it produces a "black" display output and would not, therefor be a viable option for "native" iMovie editing. (Am assuming Apple still has not "fixed" this problem in the most recently released update but have not personally checked on this since this version only runs on an Intel platform and I do most of my editing on an old PPC G5 model.) Again, just a "heads up" in case you plan to go this route.
Current use of the transferred film might be to trim/edit segments to burn standard SD DVDs. I suppose the most far-out use of these 1080p files would be to make HD Bluray discs - in a future where both my Mac has a burner and my TV a player.
As previously indicated, SD DVDs would most likely limit your final encodings to 720x480 MPEG-2/AC3 or MPEG-2/PCM burns, any of the stated target compression formats would more than suffice. Further, even a 50 GB/hour format equates to something on the order of 110 Mbps or about 8 times what is typically used for SD Motion JPEG and should, as indicated, provide adequate "headroom" for "visual perception" equivalents. (I.e., your final quality will likely depend more on the quality of your source films than on the codec you select.) In fact, if the source fils are of really good quality, you may even be able to create short HD videos and burn them to DVD using the latest version of Toast. Of course, you would still need an HD player to view them. (There are, however, other issues with color sampling/space which may or may not be significant to you.)
In my case, the ease of work flow is just as important as the quality of the final product. The MJPEG format, in addition to requiring less non-temporary storage space (i.e., fewer drives/systems), also is, I believe, one of the formats that "thumbnail" most quickly in iMovie (and/or GarageBand). This may or may not be important to you as far as editing goes. As previously stated, it is also a video format that is native edit compatible with all versions of iMovie. As such, given what you've said thus far, I would lean toward recommending it as the more suitable compression format at this point.

Resizing Motion Jpeg video without applying any transcoding

Hello,
My apology if this is a silly question.
I have Motion Jpeg video clip, which I need only to resize from 1920x1080 to 768x432.
I want to leave codec, output fields and everything else as it is.
What would be the best way to do this?
Thank you so much for your advise.

I would recommend doing the resize through compressor as it should intelligently scale the image. Although downscaling isn't as drastic as going up, it still can cause problems. If your compression settings are kept high you should notice any more compression with most codecs, but I can understand your concern with JPEGs.
The other option is to convert to a codec such as animation which is uncompressed, down scaling within compressor. Then convert the animation back to a Motion JPEG. No quality will be lost.
The final option is to use QuickTime 7. open the file as usual in QT7 (has to be 7), press Command + J to access Movie Properties. Select the video track and choose and enter the scale in the boxes below. This will resize the video, just hit Command + S to save the file. This alters the display size only and the file will retain its 1920x1080 size information, thus the overall file size will not change.
Good luck.

Error playing very long Smooth Streaming videos.

I’ve run in to an issue playing very long VOD videos. I’m running a C# Windows Phone 8.1 Universal App. A 318 minute long VOD video plays fine but a 394 minute long one gives me a MediaFailed event with an error
code 0xC00D36C4 when I try to play it. Same thing happens with all streams that are longer than 394 minutes. The MediaFailed-event is thrown from a MediaElement-object. All the videos are smooth streams with Playready DRM and use the same encoding.
Looking at the network traffic, the player does not even try to load any video or audio chunks, only the manifest, so I’m guessing the error happens when parsing the manifest document. Some sort of integer overflow
perhaps?
With an older Windows Phone 8.0 C# application using an older Smooth Streaming Client SDK library the long videos will play just fine. The Smooth Streaming Client SDK is the latest, version 1.0.141016. Is there some
known maximum length for a VOD stream on Windows Phone 8.1?

Hello,
The Smooth Streaming components are not supported in this forum. I would recommend that you post on the Gallery's Q & A page for the project:
https://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/b837ddf3-6884-436e-aeb7-35c6151a8933
For completeness that error equates to MF_E_UNSUPPORTED_BYTESTREAM_TYPE. This error usually occurs when the media type being offered by the bytestream is not a known type or does not match the type in the manifest. This can also happen if the content is
protected by PlayReady and the Media Engine cannot load the dectryptor.
Again your best bet is to post to the project's Q & A page referenced above.

Cannot found url error when i try to play my camera recorded video from my iphone 4S running ios 5.01

I got an error cannot Find url when i attempt to play my camera recorded video from my iphone 4S 32 gig. I try to restart my phone but still no luck. There was no problem previously, but suddenly i got this problem with no reason. I also unable to copy the video to my computer using itunes. So please helppp...
Thanks a ton!!
Note: My iphone 4S is running ios 5.01.

See if it helps to delete the firmware file and download a new one:
Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw)
iTunes uses "ipsw" files to restore your iPod or iPhone. If those files are unusable, then try deleting them, renaming them, or moving the file to a different directory. This will cause iTunes to download a new copy of the IPSW. When a restore issue is specific to a user, it is likely due to an unusable .ipsw file. If removing the .ipsw file does not resolve a user-specific restore issue, then the issue is caused by other user-specific security software settings or iTunes preferences. Creating a new user will also cause new .ipsw restore files to be downloaded in the new user. You can find the ".ipsw" files in these locations:

Are there any Registry keys/ Permissions / C:\Documents & Settings / Security / Applications that require All Users - Full control
any suggestions - thanks.

I'm not sure what's going on here so I've forwarded this along to our DRM team. Please be aware thought that Citrix is an unsupported platform.

Since I have updated my iOS on my ipad2, when I tryto play a video, I only get sound, no motion from the video.

On my ipad2, when I try to play a video, I only get sound and no motion from the video, since I update to the latest iOS.

I am pretty sure that will not work. Does your TV have HDMI? You will need this:

QT: Poor video quality for gradients when Motion JPEG A/B codec used.

Hello,
I have a problem using the Quicktime (7.6) and the Motion JPEG A/B codec.
My workflow is as follows:
1. Create animation with Quartz Composer. This animation should use gradients from dark red to white.
2. Export the animation as Quicktime film (MOV), set full HD (1920x1080), duration e.g. 2 minutes.
3. Open exported MOV with Quicktime(Pro)
4. Export again to Quicktime film, now choose Motion JPEG A for codec, set quality to best.
5. Check the exported film. The gradient is not smooth, I see bright and dark lines. The quality of the gradient is poor.
I checked the other codecs. When I use "Animation" then the gradient is smooth and beauty.
Unfortunately I have to use Motion JPEG codec due to customer requirements.
Does anybody have an idea, how I can improve the quality? Maybe internal QT settings? Other external Motion JPEG codec ?
Thanks in advance
LeKarmar

Hello QuickTimeKirk,
Thank you for your reply.
I need Motion JPEG A/B or PhotoJPEG This is my "final distribution format" required by the customer.
I have problems not only with the red color. Even using grey, blue or yellow gradients produces bad output.
You're right. Animation codec produces what I will accept and want, but the files are huge sized and my customer doesn't accept this format.
Please note, that I already set the high quality playback setting in Quicktime.
Regards

URGENT: Motion JPEG?? Sequence problems

HI
I have a sequence that instead of having DV PAL in the settings has Motion JPEG A - will this be ok to go into DVDSP for a DVD video project??. This sequence has a few issues with frame size which I've made posts about and trying to rectify.
In the edited sequence I changed the Motion JPEG A to DV PAL, is this ok?? I'm about to try and test this out - but wanted to ask the forum for your urgent advice.
The 1024 x 576 frame size is wrong also - I tried making a new sequence with the 720 x 576 settings and copying and pasting my AV into the new timeline. The template graphic was ok, but the video within it is all stretched!!!
I'm starting to panic now.. as I need to send this off for sound then to the client tomorrow first thing...
Hope you can help.
Cheers, Margie

Hi Karthik,
I'm not trying to create an animation for a webpage. I'm exporting the movie as a JPEG sequence for use in Final Cut Pro (as it's the cleanest way to recreate a flash animation in a movie file format). Exporting as a GIF Animation however creates the same problems as when I export as a JPEG sequence... the timelines within timelines (movie clips) don't move at all (the movie clips are animations of various carbon molecules moving in a larger animation of a lot of other things going on). Also, exporting as a GIF Sequence yeilds the same result... foreground elements move while background elements (movie clips) don't move. Strangely, everything DOES move when it's exported as a SWF file... except I can't use a SWF file. I've already tried exporting the file as a MOV file and it's too graphic-intensive and causes a lot of freezing in the animation when it renders as a MOV file, and when I try using various 3rd party SWF converters to convert the file to .MOV or .DV format, it also gets bogged down by the heavy graphics and freezes and skips.
The only way that it works is when I export it as a JPEG sequence because the computer doesn't have to render it in real time, but for some reason, movie clips within the timeline won't play. I'm hoping someone here knows a way around this, or a setting I can toggle to make it work. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks for trying though Karthik!

Losing contrast and color when converting Motion JPEG OpenDML to H.264

Hey
I have a Canon IXUS 850 IS which makes "Motion JPEG OpenDML" movies.
The files are kind of big, so I am trying to convert to a better codec.
But when I try converting to H.264 with Quicktime Pro 7 I always loose color intenseness so basically contrast.
Not sure if its a general problem or a settings problem.
I am converting at 2000 kbit/s, key frame automatic and MultiPass
with no restricted profiles.
Anybody have an idea how I could compress this video without loosing so much image quality?
If you want to see what I mean, ceck out the original and the converted video in my .mac public folder in the folder "Motion JPEG OpenDML".
.Mac name tbiegner
Thanks a lot for any help

Well I seem to have found a solution instead of converting to mp4 I am converting to mov with h.264 codec.
The conversion it a lot better if I select best quality the quality is as good as the original but the file size gets even bigger than the original actuaqlly double the size.
When I select low quality I get about the same size and quality as when I convert to mp4.
In the end what I find strange is, why mp4 makes automatically a "low" quality compression and there is now setting to change the quality.
Really a bit strange but at least I have now found somewhat of a solution.

JPEG 2000 conversion

A client just asked me to deliver a video in JPEG2000. I don't see it as a export option. I did however reset my sequence settings to JPEG2000 compression, but what do i do next. I am so not familier with this format.
Scott

Sorry, I know nothing about JPEG 2000 except that it is used for both very low end delivery such as mobile phones and very high end work like digital cinema.
For grins, I took a sequence I was working on, set the sequence settings from ProRes to JPEG 2000, rendered, and it would not play back at all on my 8-Core in FCP.
Exported that rendered timeline to a QuickTime movie, and it will play in QuickTime 7 Player, but only at 15 - 20 fps.
We'll have to wait until someone with more knowledge steps in.
