HELP....AVCHD / MPEG files not playing correctly!

I have been trying to download video that was shot with the new Sony FS100 camera that I'm told are AVCHD or MPEG files to my older Adobe Premiere Pro 1.5 timeline, but they are not playing correctly. When I reverse the field dominance, the image plays better but the sound is strange (I was able to speed the sound to 450% and it worked better, but then the balance of the sound from the clip is lost somewhere.).
Any suggestions to make these files play and work correctly? I tried converting them to AVI files but that showed up completely black on the timeline! Anything I've tried either affects the video or audio negatively! I try either makes the image play or stutterThis was shot in regular SD format, NOT HD, so they should be able to play on a standard timeline. Can anyone suggest anything to help please? Much appreciated!

Thanks for your reply, I ran it through Media Info. Here are the results:
Container & general information:
MPEG-PS: 290 Mib 4min22s
1 Video stream: MPEG video
1 Audio stream: AC-3

Please let me know where to go from here. Thanks so much!

Rewrapped AVCHD MTS files not playing correctly

I'm using a Panasonic HDC-TM700 camera to record 1920x1080 60p. The camera records to the AVCHD format which yields a .MTS file. Final Cut Pro X still does not support importing from this camera. I've tried the various tricks mentioned in these forums such as creating a camera archive, importing directly from the SD card, using Panasonic's AVC CAM restore tool, etc. Nothing has been sucessful, so it looks like it's back to re-wrapping the .MTS file to a .m4v file. To do this, I'm using the Rewrap2M4V apple script combined with ClibGrab as described in other discussions. My newly wrapped m4v clips play just fine in Quicktime Player. The movie inspector reports a FPS of 59.94 and a resolution of 1920x1080.
When I import these clips into Final Cut, however, I see two green or black empty frames about every 28-30 frames. This occurs when I'm previewing the clip from the event library and when the clip in in the timeline. The timeline is set to 1920x1080 59.94p, though I've tried 60p and saw the same behavior.
When I export the clip to a h.264 .mov file, I don't see the green or black blank frames, but the picture is garbled in those places.
For what it's worth, I've installed the updated QT codecs. Any ideas?

I don't know what conversion engine clipgrab uses, but i have had success with the old Final Cut Express using ffmpeg based software to re-wrap the .MTS files from my panasonic GH2. I use Media Converter (an ffmpeg front-end) and if you go to their presets page you'll find presets i made to do it. Give that a shot maybe. Another thing you can try to do if that still does not work is a 'standards conversion' of the re-wrapped video to ProRes in JES Deinterlacer.
good luck!

I tunes update 10.5 and music files not playing correctly

After I updated iTunes to 10.5, a vast majority of my music files do not play correctly. When they do play, they sound as if they have been super compressed and I cannot figure out why. I have un installed/re installed, checked all of my drivers and even scanned my library for viruses. Is there anyone who may have any info that may help fix this problem? I would be eternally grateful.

I have just downloaded a free program called burn and it burns music perfectly and yet itunes still wont work and comes up with the same error report as above so i do hope this helps apple to fix the bugs in there latest 10.5 itunes update.

.AVI files not playing correctly on G3 iBook

With the help of JulieJulieJulie and others I am able to import my mpeg 4 video clips (they are in .avi format on my Casio Exilim EX S600 digital camera) into iPhoto and play them without any difficulty on my G5 iMac and my G4 Powerbook. This morning I imported a group of these files onto my daughter's G3 iBook running Tiger 10.4.5 and iPhoto 5. I tried using both the EX_M4S2 component as well as the Casio .avi importer to view them with the same bad result. The clip starts and then becomes badly distorted, kind of like an impressionist painting through bad glasses--all blurry and wiggly. I then tried viewing them with mpeg streamclip and they also didn't play properly--they just kept stopping. Any idea why the G3 iBook would not be able to play them properly? I have Quicktime 7.0.4 Pro running on all three Macs.

Something you might try as an experiment (if you have a FireWire cable and your iBook G3 has a FireWire port) would be to start-up your G5 in target disk mode and then boot the iBook with the option key down, select the G5's hard drive to boot from and see if playback is noticably better - the system would be running from the hard drive in the G5 which is a 3.5" (vs. the 2.5" drive in the iBook) and runs considerably faster. If playback improves then drive speed would appear to be a factor. Or the OS and QuickTime version installed on the G5 vs. that installed on the iBook since the iBook would be using the software from the G5 hard drive.)

Why are certain sound files not playing correctly in iTunes?

I have had iTunes for years and have never had prolonged or unsolvable problems with anything playback related until now. I recently acquired some music, and it plays perfectly when I use WMP. When I added it my iTunes library, however, the audio is compressed during playback and there is a lot of skipping and blips going on in every song. It still plays perfectly in WMP, but not matter what I do the same thing happens in iTunes.
For reference, here is what the original audio songs like
http://picosong.com/cNPn
And here is what it sounds like in iTunes
http://picosong.com/cNPe

I have a similar problem. When I try to play TV episodes that were downloaded (in .m4v format) using iTunes, QuickTime (7.0.4) will play video without audio, and when I press "stop", QuickTime locks up!
My system used to play these files PERFECTLY, until I downloaded some shareware video format conversion programs (that didn't work, anyway). I believe one of them installed a shared DLL or CODEC or something that is conflicting with QuickTime. I'VE UNINSTALLED AND REINSTALLED QUICKTIME AND ITUNES COUNTLESS TIMES, trying to follow different people's advice, mostly from posts on this site, but nothing helps!!
The thing we have in common is that it sounds like you also have other video software that could have conflicting CODECs or shared DLLs. DOES ANYBODY KNOW HOW TO TRACK THIS PROBLEM DOWN??
And why doesn't Apple make a CLEAN uninstaller and a COMPLETE installer? People shouldn't have to do the manual registry editing and file deletions that other people are recommending!!!!!

Audio files not playing correctly on website.

My husband's website just was rebuilt and we are both having trouble with his recording samples page. The Webdesigner says that it is working fine. When we go to play an audio track, then we click on another audio track the 1st audio track is supposed to stop so the next one will play. However, this is not happening. The second one starts playing over the 1st. I have updated Firefox and am using 26.0. The webdesigner states that it works fine when they test the browser at their office. Can someone please let me know if there is something like a plug-in I am missing. His website is www.peteroprisko.com and the link to the recordings page is here http://www.peteroprisko.com/index.php/recordings-samples. You need to click on product details to pull up the recordings for each album.
In addition, I am unable to add the product to my shopping cart. Again we were told by the webdesigner that this works fine.
I tested both of these issues in Internet Explorer and they both work as they are supposed to, just not in Firefox. So I am convinced it is the browser.
Thanks for your help!

I see the same happening in Firefox and in Google Chrome. 
Clicking the play button of another song doesn't pause the song that is playing, so I hear multiple songs playing simultaneously. 
I am on Linux, so can't test if it works in IE, but it sounds that the code is only compatible with IE.
Clicking Add to chart makes Firefox send this request:
*http://peteroprisko.com/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&nosef=1&view=cart&task=addJS&format=json&quantity%255B%255D%3D1%26option%3Dcom_virtuemart%26view%3Dcart%26virtuemart_product_id%255B%255D%3D4&_=1390935644403
Which gives this response, but it still displays Cart empty

MOV files from Ipad not playing correctly in 2010 Windows PPT presentation

I inserted .mov files taken from Ipad 2 into a.ppt on my work PC. I saved these files to the folder containing all of the videos I am showing in the ppt-- the same folder where the .ppt is located as well. Then I inserted them as I do all videos (I create ppts often for work) -- and the clips that are horizontal play fine but the vertical ones do not play correctly- audio and video not in sync. any remedies? (using ppt 2010, converted files to wmv, didn't work either). I should add that when I viewed these files on my PC (by just clicking the file) they play fine, but they are not rotated correctly. This must have been my fault when I took the videos. However, when I insert them they are rotated correctly but just don't play right - looks like a Japanese movie. please help!

Embedded Quicktime not playing correctly in InDesign PDF - please help!!

ok - I have an issue that I can't work out and I'm hoping someone can help - tried searching for an answer to no avail. I've just built my first interactive PDF portfolio in InDesign. I should point out that I'm a producer/editor, so my knowledge of InDesign & Acrobat is not extensive. The PDF includes some embedded Quicktime movies. The movies play normally on one of my monitors (Samsung 1680x1050), but will not play correctly on my other two monitors (2x Samsung 1280x1024) - the audio plays and the play controller appears to be working but the video area is just all white...HOWEVER...if I open the PDF and play just one of the videos on my 1680x1050 monitor first, then all videos play correctly on all monitors. Have tried opening the PDF on another desktop and the movies do not work (in the same manner as above)- also tried on my laptop and the movies play correctly. Please help if you can - I need to get this out to clients and I'm baffled!! Thank You!

Ive got youtube videos converted to mp3 files on my itunes, they used to play fine but since the recent update they do not play correctly. how can i fix this?

Try running these songs through MP3 Validator to see if there any issues.
If nothing else, convert them to another format such as AAC via iTunes using the instructions in this Apple support document.

FLV videos not playing correctly in Captivate 6

I am running into an issue where my FLV video is not playing correctly when my Captivate project is exported out and saved to the web. The FLV video is about 20 mins long (~100 MB) and it is being streamed from Kaltura. The FLV video is inputted into the Captivate project as a multi-slide synchronized video across 27 slides. The slides themselves are imported from Powerpoint. The problem that we are running into is that the Captivate project and the FLV video play correctly when viewed with decent bandwidth, but they do not appear to play correctly for users with slower bandwidth. However, if a user views the videos independently of Captivate, they can view the videos correctly, even at slower bandwidth. I have tried hosting the Captivate files on several different webservers, including an LMS. But the issue continues and I'm searching for any type of answers that might help.
Thanks for reading and any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
Nathan

Nathan,
Your welcome, if that is the case, then can you try and insert the MultiSlide Video, you can insert the streaming video URL.
You can add the server to you computer as network Drive and then browser to that location, once you do that, the options to add the Video as Streaming can be chose and your Vidoe would remain insync with main playbar, users can play and pause content that way.
See if this can be implemented at your end.
Thanks,
Anjaneai

Some of my songs on itunes are not playing correctly...

i moved all my music files to my external hardrive, and they were working just fine. but for the last month, some random songs are not playing correctly!! they sound like how a scratched cd sounds (skipping, etc..., and then it just stops and it skips to the next song). the songs were playing perfectly before, it was all of a sudden, and not all, just some of them.)Also, the same songs that are not playing can not be transfered to my ipod... (tear)

Well, several people have now replied to this post, but if you mean Apple, the answer is "no". This is a user support forum, and Apple do not provide product support through it.
If you want to report a problem with something you have purchased, open the iTunes Store and login to your account. On the home page at the very bottom of the screen, you will see a link that says "Purchase History". Click this, and click the "Report a Problem" button and follow the instructions.

Embedded QuickTime files not playing sound

I'm having trouble getting older, embedded QuickTime files to play properly. Many of them do play but without sound.
An example:

Example: http://www.linguistics.ucla.edu/people/schuh/lx001/Web_Quizzes/Quiz_07/07_Quiz_m edia/0706_split_brain_red.mov

Is this a Yosemite issue? Not being able to play older QuickTime 7 files properly? I'm not sure what else the issue could be since everything seems to work fine in 10.7, 10.8, and 10.9 (unfortunately, I have been unable to test this in 10.10 or 10.10.1). Maybe I'm overcomplicating a simple issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Some very interesting observations which peaked my own curiosity due to on-again, off-again nature of the playback. I suspect this is either a "bug" or represents content handling changes that are currently in the process of "evolving." Not a web site programmer so I used iWeb to run some contrast-comparison tests on how audio was handled by the plug-in software when directly accessing the content by its URL and via the page embed strategies. My results mirrored yours in that:
1) All legacy codecs tested (A-Law, IMA, QDM2, QPV, and u-Law) in an MOV file container played correctly in the QT 7 player.
2) The same files all played correctly when content was accessed by the plug-in software directly using the URL reference.
3) None of the files containing legacy audio compression formats would play audio using the plug-in software using a web page embedding strategy.
4) An MP4 (H.264/AAC) version of you original clip played correctly in all instances.
5) Replacing your QDM2 audio track with an AAC audio track in the original MOV file allowed the file to play correctly in all instances.
Based on these observations, I suspect the problem is in the way the software is currently programmed to handle (or rather ignore) the embedded strategy content. However, as you indicated, it is probably time to update your files. Not only did the H.264/AAC version of your original file play in all instances, but it used less than 45% of the file space/bandwidth for the settings I employed as compared to your original "0706_split_brain_red.mov" original file.

The music is not played correctly on my iphone (on Laptop it's ok)

Hi all
I loaded some songs from my laptop to the iphone4 (on the laptops the files are ok) but when I played on the iphone ....The music is not played correctly - I get some cuts and it's jumping from one song to another. A total reboot or update to the latest OS did not bring any change.
Thanks

I too have this problem which seems to be replicated several times in discussion groups. I've swictched off iTunes Match, backup up and restored my iPhone and nothing helps. I'll try other discussion threads but if anyone has a solution, PLEASE post!

Playlist not playing correctly since updating

Playlist is not playing correctly. Anyone else have this problem and fixed it? 80 gig old black Ipod 5th generation. Since updating Itunes, play the first song, then will jump around to different songs not in playlist....

You can do a font test to see if you can identify corrupted font(s).
*http://browserspy.dk/fonts-flash.php?detail=1
You can try different default fonts and temporarily disable website fonts to test the selected default font.
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced
*[ ] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"
You can check for problems with preferences.
You can check the gfx.downloadable_fonts.enabled pref on the about:config page and make sure that it is set to true (if necessary double-click the line to toggle its value).
Delete a possible user.js file and numbered prefs-##.js files and rename (or delete) the prefs.js file to reset all prefs to the default value including prefs set via user.js and prefs that are no longer supported in the current Firefox release.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Resetting_preferences
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problem.
See "Creating a profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over problems.
