HD picture does not play but audio does. Why?

I have a MacBook Pro 2010, I have HD footage that is at I believe 1080p and only the audio will play, not the picture, it is just black. I have tried opening the clips in quiktime, final cut...any suggestion or help. Tried to do updates but can't quite figure it out. Thanks.

Hi. I think what you need is Imovie. It will play HD video clips. Do you have it in your Macbook Pro. You show OS 10.6.8 If so should be Imovie 9.0.4  http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1412?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US  This is the update for 10.6.8

  • Video will not play but audio does

    I transfered some .mov files from my friends mac and tried playing it on my pc. It plays the audio but not the video on Quicktime. I tried using the VLC player and it says some thing about "icod." I tried many converters but they all failed.

    Load one of the videos into QuickTime Player, open the Movie Inspector (from the Window menu), and post the information shown in the Format section. That will provide some important information for diagnosing the issue and suggesting what to do.
    Regards.

  • Captivate 7 saved project randomly does not play slide audio in preview project.

    I created a training project with over 100 slides. Each slide has an audio track that I recorded, When I preview each slide it sounds fine. When you preview the entire project, some slides randomly do not play the audio track. Try it again and other slides randomly don't play. How can I fix this and prevent it from happening?

    I concur, but do not have the device with me today, and was wondering if this is a common discrepancy. Has anyone tested Captivate output with slide audio into DPS? Does it work?

  • Why does my video  not play while audio does?

    Using iMovie 9 found that after bringing a clip from clips pane into my project that I could no longer insert or edit the project. The green insert cursor remained but all was frozen. After quitting, video clips in project pane will not play while audio (both audio from the actual clips and music) does play. When mouse hovers/scrubs over the clips in the project pane the video clips do come alive but not when i press space bar or play buttons (play full screen /play project from beginning buttons) in bottom left of window. Strangely video in clips pane do play when I press space bar.
    I tried creating a new project and importing clips but no video will play. Same thing applies to all my imovie projects. Another strange thing, the other projects will play when I click on Play Fullscreen button but not my most recent project. Instead, when I click Play full screen button the Last (ie. last in alphabeitical order) of my projects plays instead!
    I would really appreciate some help with this. Have spent a lot of hours on the project and seems like I can't even start again.  

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - 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
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    If not under warranty Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

    A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.

  • Files recently downloaded from Canon Legeria FS306 do not play the audio. Can hear audio on camera or downloading same files to a PC. Also hear audio on earlier files downloaded from same camera to iMovie '11. How do I avoid problem & recover lost audio?

    Files recently downloaded from Canon Legeria FS306 to iMovie '11 do not play the audio. I can still hear audio on the camera or by downloading the same files to a PC. Can also hear audio on earlier files downloaded from the same camera to iMovie '11. How do I avoid this problemand recover lthe ost audio?

    The first thing to try is to run Software Update (the Update tab in the Mac App Store.). This was an issue a couple of releases ago, and an update seemed to fix it.
    If you are already at the most recent version of iMovie, then I don't know how to solve you issue. Maybe someone else will have some ideas.

  • In my 3G iphone why animated picture will not play any free application that support animated?

    In my 3G iphone why animated picture will not play any free application that support animated?

    If the animation is based on Flash. it will not work. iPhones have never had Flash capability, as Adobe has never provided it. Search the forums for "Flash" to see at least 5000 explanations.

  • Video will not play, yet audio does.

    Like the header says, all of a sudden I go to work on a project I've never had trouble with and the video will not play; it is frozen wherever the cursor is. Yet the audio does play. I've tried clearing cache, clearing premiere cache, gone all over the internet to try and find an answer, of course India is closed right now, so no help there, not that they really give it anyway. So I'm asking if anyone might have experienced this one and figured it out despite Adobe. I'm on a PC with Windows 8 and terabytes and terabytes of storage; plenty of space left on disc, too. As I said; this has never been even a hint of a problem Just started up today. This even beats most Adobe "beta testing" problems they heap on us unsuspecting sheep. So I'm completely flummoxed. A prize to whoever knows what's up with this! It's a new one on me... Thanks in advance to whichever genius knows the answer! :-)

    OK, I found the answer by myself and wish to share it with those having the same issue. It turns out that the saved workspace can corrupt allowing audio to play, while video remains frozen. The fix is to change the workspace. Go to WINDOW, after creating a new style workspace and save the new workspace. Problem fixed. Also, if there are already a number of other saved workspaces that involve video you can simply change to that one and it will be fixed. Delete the corrupt workspace. That's it! This was discovered through a simple process of elimination which proves that bugs really can surface anywhere for no intuitive reason. Hope this helps you!

  • Dictophone problems (does not play recorded audio)

    Hi, everyone. I have a very big problem with my Ipod 4g touch.
    I've made several audio notes by standart dictophone. But two of them are not playing. Also the're not displaying in iTunes. I don't want to loose these notes, because they're very important.
    The length of the first audio note is 2 hours 20 minutes.
    The length of the second audio note is 1 hour 25 minutes.
    I already made several notes with length = 1 hour 30 minutes, and they played correctly. Please help - what should I do?

    Yes, it just sits instead of auto-playing.
    I can't figure out what's going wrong. I can manually start the audio behind the scenes using the web console. Here's how:
    * Select and copy the following line of script:<br><br>document.querySelector("audio").play();
    * Double-click the MP3 to call up the player
    * Press Ctrl+Shift+k to open the web console
    * If necessary, click next to the caret (>>)
    * Paste and press Enter to run the script
    At that point, the MP3 should start playing and you can close the web console. Obviously that shouldn't be necessary, but Google's code usually is too complex for me to debug.

  • I applied a template to a page with SWFs and now that page does not play the SWFs. Why?

    I applied a template to a page with SWFs and now that page does not play the SWFs (just a blank area where the SWF should be). When I detach the template it will play the flash file. This site will eventually be updated via Adobe Contribute. And I just discovered that when applying a template to a page that uses HTML datasets (Master/Detail),it no longer reads the Master/detail regions and displays a blank. Any thoughts?
    [Moved to Dreamweaver forum by moderator]

    Firstly, you shouldn't really 'apply' a template to a page, you should create a child page by going to FILE>NEW>Page from Template.  Too many things can happen when applying a template the way you are doing it. eg:; editable and non-editable regions not matching up and being asked where to place these regions and in all likelihood, you end up with 2 or more of the same region.
    When a swf file is inserted into a page, a corresponding Scripts folder is written automatically is stored in the root of the site - it is also linked to in the head of the document. What I believe is happening is that when you apply a template to the page, the Template has no idea that there is a swf file on the page and is not aware of the correct link to the Scripts folder.  If you do a test and add the swf file to the template page itself, I bet that the links to the swf and the scripts folder are correct - because DW knows the correct path to the script file.   Hence the reason the page probably works when you detach it from a template.

  • Playhead not moving, but audio is playing

    I think I have a compatibility issue that I need some advice on.
    I'm running Audition CS6 on Windows 7 and have an Mbox2 mini that I use for recording.
    I have downloaded the latest standalone driver for the Mbox2 from Avid (9.0.2.65) and almost everthing is now working in Audition.
    I can record and play, but the playhead never moves.  This is obviously annoying as you can't see where you are in the track.
    I'm guessing it's a driver issue and that Audition isn't getting the time location, but not really sure.
    Please let me know if you have any ideas how to resolve this.
    Thanks.
    Tim

    Although with Avid anything's possible.

  • ITunes 11.1 on Windows 8 will not play/rip audio CDs

    Problem:
    I cannot play or rip audio CDs using iTunes on Windows 8. iTunes does not show any errors. It recognizes that I've put in an audio CD with tracks (and, in fact, matched the tracks in the iTunes database). When I click the Play button, it just skips from one song to the next.
    Stats:
    - OS: Windows 8 Media Edition/64-bit
    - BDRW: LG WH14NS40
    - iTunes: 11.0.1.126
    Background:
    I built a computer and installed a BDRW. The BDRW uses Windows drivers, so no additional software was installed.
    The burner reads CD/DVD data and video just fine (haven't tested with BluRay yet).
    When I put an audio CD in, I couldn't listen to it in either iTunes or Windows Media Player.
    After following the directions here -- http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_8-pictures/dvdcd-player -not-playing-audio-cds-win8-laptop/791e04c0-628e-42a8-8014-43cc782511a4 -- I could hear it on Windows Media Player, but not on iTunes.
    I could not rip any music using iTunes: all it did was create a bunch of 1kb files.
    Question:
    How could I have iTunes play Audio CDs again?
    Thanks in advance.

    Correction: iTunes 11.1.0.126, not 11.0.1.126
