FCP5 QT7 files blank video

Hi folks,
My captured FCP5 HDV files play fine in FCP on my edit system (Dual-processor tower w/ OSX 10.4.5).
But when I want to open them from my hard drive on my own Intel iMac OSX.4.6. in QT7 (for viewing, logging etc.), the audio plays fine, but video is blank. I've re-installed QT7, to no avail.
Thx for any tips

it may be that FCP's ability to playback HDV in Quicktime is because it installs a quicktime component to add this capability
... look in your /Library/Quicktime folder. do you see "AppleHDVCodec.component" ? if not, try copying it from your edit system to your iMac and then see if you can view your HDV clips
i can't guarantee it will work as there might be a PPC/Intel codebase issue, but its certainly worth a try
hope it helps
Andy

IChat File Transfer/Video Chat won't work... :(

Hi Everyone,
I am trying to get ichat to allow file transfers/video chatting on my Mac, I have a feeling that the setup through the routers that we have are not allowing it to function as it is constantly giving me errors. My set up is a Cable Modem hooked into a Netgear WGR614 v6 and then an ethernet wire running from that router to a Linksys WRT54G v8. I have the WRT54G set up with the following settings:
IP: 192.168.1.136
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
Gateway 192.168.1.1
Static DNS 1 and 2: Are my IP's DNS servers
Static DNS 3 is blank
Local IP address is .199 with a subnet of 255.255.255.128
I have DHCP enabled starting at .200 with 30 users
My computer is also set up statically at port .233.
The Netgear WGR614 v6 is set up with the following settings:
Get IP/DNS dynamically from ISP
DHCP Range from 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.51. Router is on a subnet of 255.255.255.0 the linksys is set up statically to the Netgear
SO, this brings me to my issue, I am trying to get ichat file transfer/video to work, I have followed the instructions for setting up portforwarding from portforward.com for ichat on both the netgear and the linksys. On the linksys, i set the IP address to forward to as my computers (.233)
On the netgear, i set the ip address to forward to as 192.168.1.136 (the static IP of the linksys).
Anyway, I am hoping someone can point out what I am doing wrong as I am still getting this error: An AIM error has occurred. Unable to talk directly to your buddy. I am also getting this error: An AIM service error occurred. The server message was: Serv:RequestTimeout.
My OS X firewall is off.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP IN ADVANCE!!

Hi,
I am not sure I have understood your Networking here.
You say the Netgear is getting an IP (Via DHCP) from the ISP.
You go onto say it is at 192.168.1.1
It issues IP addresses from 192.168.1.2 through 192.168.1.51 and the Linksys has an IP outside this range at 192.168.1.136
Your computer is at 192.168.1.233
As both devices are using the 192.168.1.xxx group and doing DHCP (even with restricted groups) how does the computer know which one to connect to ?
You should be able to change the group that each device is using for it's own network (I would suggest the Netgear)
You should also turn Off DHCP (to the LAN) in the Netgear so it's own network (subnet) only goes as far as the Linksys.
Similarly in the Linksys make sure DHCP is Off or change the Mac to use Manually (Static) with DHCP.
Both devices can do UPnP found in the Administration tab in the Linksys and the WAN page of the Netgear.
Turn Off/disable all Port Forwarding in both devices.
It may also pay to copy across the Linksys and Computer the DNS server IPs from the Netgear.

H.264 export blank video

Using Quicktime or FCP to export h.264 results in blank video, audio ok. New problem. Tried reinstalling quicktime 7. No luck.
Any ideas?

Any ideas?
If by "blank" you are referring to a "black" video display with good audio, check the video data rate of the exported file. If very low, the problem may be associate with attempts to limit the video data rate below the minimum needed for the complexity, size, and/or profile you are using for the particular content. Also, not sure if FCP is now plagued with such problems but iMovie '08/'09 produces a "black" display with certain source video codecs--primarily Animation.

I just purchased Time Capsule today. I ONLY want to use it as an external drive. I do not need it for Time Machine. I need to free up room on my computer. As of now, I can't even load updates. I can see the TC in my finder, but when I click on a file or video to drag and drop, I get message that TC can't be modified. Help please!

I agree with Kappy.. passing files and especially via wireless is slow as slow.
Just need to be sure your TC is the new AC model??
And the OS on the computer is Lion?
Have you completed the setup of the TC via the utility? You do still need to get internet via the TC so it has to be plugged into the main router..
Give us the full picture of the network.
Then we can help you get into it.. whether you should put your files on it is another question.

Options missing on iMovie under File Analyze Video

Hi. I just got the new iLife 11 and was looking through the video about the people finder on this page. http://www.apple.com/ilife/imovie/
However, when I look at iMovie on my computer I don't see the mark camera pans option under file-analyze video and the button that shows the keyword editor is not there. How do I get these options to appear?

Wow! Didn't even know that was there! Thanks for the speedy reply. Has that always been there? And would you mind just giving me a brief description of the other things it enables and how to access them? Because I didn't know what most of the other stuff was on the list. Thanks so much for your help!

Unix program to identify file and video types

A co-worker gave me a link to this script which I am now using to quickly identify and sort batches of video files. It labels them with file format, video codec, view size and frames per second. Its not very polished but if you get the one from the download link at the bottom of the page you can just double click and drop a folder in the window.

Can't create blank video layer in photoshop CS

Why can't I create a blank video layer in photoshop CS? (Mac)

yes i just did. no change in menus.
and yeah creating new normal layers does create blank video layers but the keyframe animation doesn't work. i have to position the layers one after the other so it looks like something animated, it's ridiculous.
sorry for posting three pictures but here i hope this clarifies things a little

Thanks for your suggestions. I checked to see if the options you suggested were set incorrectly but they were set to sync all. This led me to think the problem was actually in the iphone. I re-initialized the iphone and did not allow the system to restore any of the previous settings. In essence, I forced the phone to reset to factory settings. Then my video podcasts started syncing. All is well now. I did notice that I had seven podcasts selected that were "HD" presentations, and as such, are not compatible with the iphone. I don't know if this had anything to do with my earlier situation, but now I'm getting the video podcasts automatically. I'm happy. It wasn't much fun forcing the iphone to forget all of my preferences and I'm still customizing the phone now several days later. I think I have everything working and back to normal except I haven't identified any of my email accounts as of yet. Thanks for your help.

Blank video uploads to YouTube (bug?)

Hello -
I'm uploading my video to YouTube. It did it absolutely fine the first time, but then I noticed a bad edit so tweaked and re-uploaded.It uploaded a completely black video. Sound was fine, and the length remains correct; but twice it uploaded a blank video.
I quit and reopened FCPX, which fixed the problem.
Anyone else spotted this?

Yeah, so it's right after the initial compression within ReelDirector that the problem begins occuring. I've emailed the developer of this App and hopefully I will have a solution. I'm a little nervous considering I seem to be the only person on the internet with this problem, i can't find it anywhere else. :/

Opening mp4 files without video

I try to open mp4 files with video but some files opens video, some not. I can not fix the rule, becouse all files are mp4. I noticed "Auto open video panel when loading video files" in preferences is "on", so video panel is all the time open but video does not appear. I have Soundbooth CS4 and working with Windows7. I do not remember if I had problems when working with XP few months ago. Right now evidently I have problem. Can someone suggest what I should adjust in my Soundbooth or what I should pay attention to, when loading audio-video file ???
Regards

Discovered the issue.
For mounted drives you need to use the nativePath property.
For cross platform applications you can simply replace() the delimiter with the .separator property.
Also for some reason the skin wouldn't load, despite the fact that I had chosen it in the component selector.
I ended up setting the myFLVplayback.skin property just before I added the component to the stage.
On a related note, does anyone know if there's a difference between publishing an app with included folders, and simply publishing the app and adding the folders to the .app directory after the .app folder has been published?

Adobe Media Encoder different audio file to video file.

Hello,
I've been encoding files from several different DVD's and when I play the encoded file the video is correct but the audio is from a completely different file. This is I am assuming is because the file names on the DVD's are the same i.e. VTS_01_1.. etc. When I realised it was doing this I permanently deleted the incorrectly encoded files, sorted all of the correctly encoded files into seperate folders for each DVD. This did not work even though media encoder was creating new file names for each file it encoded. I then re-named all of the correct files and re-named the files that I was about to encode. I have also cleared the media cache database. The files on the DVD's are fine and play as they should with the correct audio. What do I need to do to get the files to encode with the correct audio?!!! Thank you!

Try this - in Project Bin, right-click the clip in question and select "Make Offline". Then right-click again and choose "Link Media" and point it to the correct source file. Could be that the pointers got all confused as like you said, as sources had the same names.
If that fails to resolve the problem - cleaning the Media Cache only works for projects that no longer exist, or are on a drive that is disconnected. Assuming that maybe the Conformed audio that is being used in the background is messed up, try this - close Premiere, then RENAME the project file, for instance add an "x" to beginning of filename. Now open Premiere (new project), then clean the cache again. Since it can't find your project, it should then remove all temp renders from the drive for that project.
Next, rename project to original name and open and it should conform audio again as if just adding media for the first time. Hopefully for correct clips this time, if you have moved media around on drive to eliminate overlap of file names.

Mov files dropping video and audio frames CC 2014

I have been experiencing playback issues in Premiere and just got off the phone with Adobe support. It appears that there is known issue with .mov files dropping video and audio frames that will likely be fixed in the next release. My entire project is .mov files and we need to get some serious editing done to complete a rough cut of our film. As a bandaid, we have reverted the playback renderer to software only and I am experimenting with different preview file formats to see if I will have less dropped frames. I want to avoid converting my media from mov files at all costs as this would be very time consuming with over 100 hours of footage.
Please let me know if you have any other workarounds!

Welcome to the forum.
Unfortunately, MOV can hold all sorts of "stuff." See this article for some more detail: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/440037?tstart=0
Can you let us know what is inside that MOV "wrapper?"
Thanks, and good luck,
