G711 movie file work with QT6, but no audio with QT7
G711 (PCM) QuickTime mov files played fine for us on QuickTime 6 and 6.5. But since we upgraded to QuickTime 7, the audio playback does not work anymore.
You can download an example file from here:
ftp://ftp.gatherworks.com/private/g711.mov (285K)
When I downgrade to QT6.5 it works again.
Is there anything wrong with these QuickTime movie files?
Casper,
Okay I want to sing the friendly ghost from the show when I see your name.
I burn avi all the time in Toast 7.1.2 Toast and I usually convert them to divx to fit 10-11 hours of video on there, but I've done it with DVD video. A friend lent me a movie once with no sound and here is the problem that will work everytime. You need to download the VLC player to get it to work right. Here is the link: http://www.videolan.org/
Didn't even know they had an intel one as I have the other version on my Powerbook and just transferred it to my intel one. Once it is downloaded you click on the orange striped cone and then you will see a little VLC box come up. The most effective way to view any file is to go to File up top and then scroll to open file (I've down the quick open file too and then you see a open box and a button that says browse next to it. Click the browse and find the movie or divx you want to watch and click open and then okay, then click the play arrow that is on your desktop and viola. You can go up top too and go to video and click full size screen etc.
If this was helpful or solved your problem please click the helpful or solved button up top. If this doesn't work let me know too.

How can I make my AVCHD mov. files work in premier pro?
I used Panasonic HDC-SD60 for a short film for work. This has over about 40 clips with around 3 hours of footage However when I import the .mov files from the media browser the audio seems fine but the footage is in a sort of slow mo, and out of sync. I want to edit and do post-production using adobe premier pro, and after effects. However the footage seems to be working in final cut X. There is no lag with playback on quicktime either. What's making this happen? I've read about variable frame rates, it's seems most common in iPhones and tablets? Is that something that the panasonic do as well? Is there a fix? Or should I jump ship and make do with a slightly more limited features of Final Cut?
That does not specifically say Variable FRAME Rate, so I don't know a cure... but, see below

I have an older Sony digital camcorder, and I am having trouble importing the movie files. Sometimes I get the audio in iTunes without the picture. I have a Pinnacle Dazzle interface. What am I doing wrong. Is there a way to skip the dazzle device?
Chances are the pinnacle is producing .avi files or MPEFG1/2 streams - iTunes may know how to decode the audio but not the video. Download Handbrake and try running the Pinnacle files through it and adding to iTunes - use Universal format unless you have a specific device in mind.
Keep copies of the originals.
Another option might be to try to install Perian. Can't remember if the Apple MPEG2 plugin allows MPEG2 to be played in iTunes.

I cant play videos on Facebook with Firefox but I can with IE. I am using Firefox 4.0.1
Firefox now always stores the old session, and you can access it by going to the History menu and selecting "Restore Previous Session"
If you want Firefox to display the message to save the session, it can be turned back on by changing some preferences.
# Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
# Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
# Locate the preference '''browser.tabs.warnOnClose''', if its value is set to '''false''', double-click on it to change its value to '''true'''
# Repeat this for these 3 preferences '''browser.warnOnQuit''', '''browser.warnOnRestart''' and '''browser.showQuitWarning'''
If you always open the last set of tabs, an alternative approach is this:
# Click the orange Firefox button, then select options to open the options window
# Go to the General panel
# Change the setting "When Firefox starts" to "Show my windows and tabs from last time" -

I can not open my.mov files on my mac. I would like too. I use to b able to look at them but for some reason i can not. I tried downloading quick time 7 but i have had no luck. Is there a way for me to open them? I just finished updating my system software so maybe that had something to do with it? Please help.
drrbr1,
Mavericks changed how media was handled on OS X. Apple moved away from the old Quicktime frameworks (that were started in the 80's IIRC). Now the OS uses AVFramework. It is why Quicktime X (QTX) & Quicktime 7 (QT7) can play different formats.
QT7 used a series of codec plugins (encoder/ decoder) to add support for formats that Apple never supported (like DIVX, WMV, Ogg audio etc). Many users installed plugins like Perian to add these codecs via a simple installer. Perian may still work on QT7 apps, I haven't tested Perian on 10.10. Perian is clearly out of date & abandoned now, see perian.org or see the site of the old codec.
AVFoundation & QTX has no ability to add extra codecs - you get support because the format is correct for AVFoundation to play, you get a dialog that converts the movie or the third option is that AVFoundation can't convert & simply chokes & doesn't allow playback.
Apple have nothing to fix. The reason the movies don't play is because the new framework uses 64bit for everything. The older codecs are not 64bit & since Apple didn't write those codecs they won't fix them either. It may seem like I'm apologising for Apple, but it isn't entirely their fault, things move on.
I'm afraid you need to work out what codecs you have contained in the files (.mov is just a wrapper around the data - the codec is the key to reading the data). mediainfo can help with that
https://mediaarea.net/en/MediaInfo
It will list the details of the codecs - from there you need to find an app that will convert to a supported format.
It sounds like you have a sound format that is not compatible with AVFoundation - that means all apps the rely on AVfoundataion no longer play those files (Finder & iMovie use AVFoundataion).

Why is an mov file showing up as a black screen with only audio?
I am importing a mov file into elements 11 and it is only showing up as a black screen with audio. The clip will play in other programs on my computer but is not importing into elements 11. The file was created on my panisonic camera. I am pretty new to video editting and am quite frusterated. I'm assuming it is some sort of codec issue but don't know how to proceed.

Video files work on computer but not on published site
I am definitely missing something here.
I redesigned my website with iWeb and I am very pleased with the results. (The original site was done with Dreamweaver but then I migrated to Mac.)
I published it to my computer to check everything and then put it up on my server with a ftp program (filezilla. works for me). The page shows great on internet.
I now want to add a page with a newly created video. I drag the video clip on to the movie page I created. It is an avi file. On my computer it all works fine but when I publish it (to my computer to be sure it is OK), the video clip does not show up on the new page. I have tried with Safari, Firefox and Chrome. Same story on all.
I am afraid to upload it to the internet before I sort this out.
So my two questions would be:
1. What am I doing wrong?
2. What file formats does iWeb support?
thanks for any help.The Miro Video Convertor is useful for format conversion if you want to provide as many as possible to encourage html5 playback in most browsers.
If you don't want to be bothered with all this, fallback players will use an MP4 (or MOV) in most situations and fallback to flash for browsers like IE. Examples are JW Longtail, FlowPlayer and VideoJS.
This method uses the QuickTime plugin. The problem is that, in a lot of cases, browsers will ask permission to run the plugin and visitors shouldn't be made to jump through hoops to get the movie to play.
Its worth the extra effort to make sure that as many of your website visitors as possible can just click and play.
A lot of people resort to Vimeo and YouTube but the problem with them is that visitors are tempted to leave your site at the end of the movie. Vimeo is better than YouTube in this respect and also has more customizing options.

Published a Mov File and I get a Quicktime Symbol with a ? What can i do?
I published a site with iWeb with a .Mov file in it about 20 seconds long. When it finished publishing, i checked out the website and instead of the video playing, i see a QUICKTIME symbol with a (?) question mark on it. what can i do to make this work. should i format the .Mov file to avi, mpeg-4 or another? help me guys, pls. thanks.
It's not an iWeb issue. Rather a QuickTime one.
Your original movie is 29,1MB (rather large for 20 seconds) and 960x540 pixels and Apple Intermediate Codec.
It is displayed on your webpage as 772x450 (not proportionally).
When I scale it to 800x450 (proportionally) and export it to QuickTime as h.264 and Faststart it only is 709kB.
About 1/40th. And hardly any noticeable loss of quality.
Lately there's an influx of videoprofessionals who have difficulty putting their movies on the web. Perhaps some masterclasses would be in order.
I'm not a professional, but I think I know a trick or two:

Just trying to create a unique name if something exists.

end getUniqueNameThere are numerous errors in your script, and it's a large script so there might be more, but these are the standouts for me:
At line 48 you:
set fileName to get name of startFile
which is fair enough - you then use this to see if the file already exists in the destinationFolder. However, if it does the logic about how to deal with that is flawed.
At line 56 you catch the error:
on error errmess number errnum -- oops (should probably check for a specific error number)
log "Error " & errnum & " moving file: " & errmess
set newName to my getUniqueName(fileName, fakeTrash)
set name of fileName to "this is a unique name" -- or whatever
set name of fileName to newName
--Now move the renamed file to the fake trash
move file fileName to fakeTrash
--now move the startfile to destination folder
move file startFile to destinationFolder
end try
so let's focus on that.
56: catch the error
57: log the error
58: generate a new unique filename
59: change the name of fileName to some other string
Hang on, wait a minute.... we already ascertained that at line 48 you defined fileName as a string object that indicates the name of the file. This is just a string. It's no longer associated with the original file... it's just a list of characters. Consequently you cannot set the 'name' of a string, hence your script is doomed to fail.
Instead, what I think you want to do is set the name of the startFile to the unique string. Files have filenames, and therefore you can set the name.
You have a similar problem on line 64 where you try to 'move file filename to fakeTrash'. fileName is just a string of characters. It isn't enough to identify a file - let's say the file name is 'some.psd'. You're asking AppleScript to move file some.psd to the trash. The question is which some.psd? The one on the desktop? in your home directory? maybe on the root of the volume? or maybe it should search your drive to find any/all files with that name? nope. None of the above. You can't just reference a file by name without identifying where that file is. So you probably want to 'move file fileName of destinationFolder...'
There may be other problems, but they're likely to be related - all issues with object classes (e.g. files vs. strings), or not being specific about which object you want.
As I said before, though, I might be way off - you don't say where the error is triggered to make it easy to narrow down the problem. Usually AppleScript will highlight the line that triggered an error. Knowing what that line is would help a lot. -
Created site in IWEB 08, works on Safari but looks different with Firefox?
I created a site with Iweb 08. I used Safari as the viewing browser and was happy with how the site looked. I then used Fetch to FTP the folder to the web server. When viewing the page on the server with Safari it was great, but when viewed with Firefox it was all frigged up. I didn't try it with Internet Destroyer cause personally I don't like it. I then published the page folder to Web.Mac.Com. The site works great on both browsers when accessed through web.mac.com. Is there something missing when accessing the site on my original server? My thought now is to remove the site from the original server and just bite the bullet and fly it on web.mac.com. Appreciate any thoughts
I think part of my problem was trying to move content made with Dream Weaver into IWEB. My site was made with Dream weaver originally. I pasted it into IWEB, thinking it was possible to do. It was to a point. I had to redo all my links and buttons and so on, but the pictures and text content seemed to look fine. After somewhat completing the site I published to a folder and used Fetch FTP to move the site to the server I was using. That is when i got the different looks in different browsers. I then published to the .mac server as I had a 60 day free trial. Low and behold the site looked good on the 2 browsers I have on my new IMAC. I switched over to the Windows side of the IMAC and logged into the site with IE 7. It looked good there too. So I ended up going with the .mac account to host the site
www.unitedpuett.com. I then had to redirect from Network Solutions, my registrar for the site, so when the address was typed in it would direct to the .mac server. This was another chore but was solved easily by

MOV files are just wrappers and they need to be in the proper format to be viewed. iPad 2's can view H.264 encoded movies with Main Line Profile 3.1 at 720p, while iPad 3+ can view 1080p movies encoded with H.264 HIgh Profile 3.1. If you have the movie on your Mac, you can drag and drop it to you iPad with Pic Share It. It will automatically convert the movie if it not in the proper format, so you can view it on your iPad.
