HT3775 avi file what is the require codec

i dont understand why the avi file will not play on quicktime

There is no single codec for movies that have .avi extensions. AVI is a container format, not a specific type of file. An AVI movie may use one of the Indeo codecs (there are at least four that I'm aware of, none of which have been ported to Mac OS X) or one of the various flavors of DivX, among other possibilities. You'll have to find out what codec was used for the movies you want to view to determine what you need. Note that not all codecs for the various .avi movies are available for QuickTime. 
If you want to try "hit and miss", Perian, which rolls several codecs into one package, might work. If not, you can try the codecs at http://www.divx.com/ and http://www.3ivx.com/ and see if one of them will work for you. Do not install both Perian and the DiVX/3iVX codecs at the same time. 
If you just want to play the movie any way you can, you can also give this player a try:

  • How to solve "this type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed"?

    Hi all,
    I've just started using a new computer with WIndows 8.1 within the last week and have loaded my Adobe Premiere Elements 11.0 software into it.
    In trying to view and edit a video I created on my old computer, I got "Media Pending" and "Media Offline" notices as soon as I began. The source files are located on an external drive with a permanent letter designation. I began the process of reconnecting my Project Assets files with the source files this morning, but have now encountered a new roadblock. Each time I try, I get the message "this type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed." It offers no information or options other than to click "OK," which is not very helpful.
    All the source files are located in one folder on my external drive. I have been able to reconnect the JPEGs and the mp3 source files but not the AVI video files.
    Here are three screenshots. The first is the "Media Offline" message, the second is the message I receive when I try to reconnect my Project Assets to the source files and the third is a screenshot of the codecs installed on the new computer.
    Here is my new computer information:
    Model: Del Inspiron 3847
    Intel Core i5-4460
    CPU @ 3.20 GHz  3.20 GHz
    RAM 8 GB
    System type: 64-bit, x64-based processor
    I hope someone can guide me. What do I need to do to solve this problem?
    Thank you.

    Thank your for the information supplied.
    But, what are the properties of this .avi file that you seek?
    Video Compression
    Audio Compression
    Frame Size
    Frame Rate
    Interlaced or Progressive
    Pixel Aspect Ratio
    Right now of prime interest is the video compression that is being wrapped by that AVI wrapper/container.
    AVCHD.avi
    MotionJPEG.avi
    XviD.avi
    DviX.avi
    other
    There are instances were a particular video compression or a particular container/wrapper format is each supported by Premiere Elements, but
    not a combo of those particular two. But, in this instance, I suspect this to be a MotionJPEG video codec issue, but your details will
    point us to the actual situation, and we will plan troubleshooting strategy from there.

  • Error Message: This type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed?

    I am trying to get media from my computer, and I only receive this error message :
    This type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed?
    What should I do? I have a window 8 laptop. My video files are from my itouch/ipod. I am using Premiere Elements 7.
    I have used this software with success before. HELP would greatly be appreciated!

    Did both laptop 1 and 2 have QuickTime (latest version or any version) installed on the computers with Premiere Elements 7 when you got this "this type of file......" message?
    If you go to the opened Premiere Elements 7 projects involved and look at Share/Personal Computer/QuickTime, do you find that QuickTime Presets are shown and that you find export settings choices under the Advanced Button/Video Tab and Audio Tab?
    Look at the file name of the video. Do you see any irregularies in the name of the file, dots and such?
    If you record new iPod footage, open a new Premiere Elements project, and import that iPod footage, do you still get the error message? Putting aside, iTouch, what model iPod are these videos coming from?
    Thanks.

  • This type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed.

    About two months ago, I was able to edit these files and create videos from them. Now I get the following message: This type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed.
    Aside from regular Windows updates, nothing has been added or removed from my PC.
    I’m using fully patched Windows 7
    Premiere Elements 8.0
    Canon T2I Hi def movies are .MOV

    I can't believe that tech challenged moi is replying to the codec issue.  I bought a new computer with Windows 7.  I won't go into the tech issues with a Windows update....   Anyway I downloaded Photoshop Elements 8 and figured out how to import my photos and videos to Photoshop on the new comptuter.  Photos were fine but videos wouldn't play.  I got the messages about Apple's Quicktime required and then the "required codec is not installed".  I went "What is a "codec"!
    I downloaded Quicktime which went smoothly but I still had the "required codec not installed" message to deal with.  I researched and found that it referred to compressed/decompressed files(?)  Next I googled "Windows 7 codec download" (not even sure if there was one).  There was!   I clicked on the first result and downloaded the codec.  The info stated that this codec should read 99.9% of video files.  Went back to Photoshop and clicked on the blue video thumbnail.  It worked!!!  The video played just as it did on the old computer.
    Hope this helps someone else.  Now why would Windows 7 not include this codec in the first place.  I never had to download one before on other computers.  Only Quicktime needed downloading.  Oh, well.

  • Where is the required codec for Quicktime 7.2 to view MPEG-2 files?

    I have quicktime 7.2 running on Mac OSX 10.7.2. I have some movies in the MPEG-2 format. When i clik on them to play them, quicktime opens and says the required codec isnt available. Whats wrong, and where do i find the right "codec" to play the files?
    PLease help...
    Thx in advance!

    OK, did some digging and this is the deal.
    Inspite of Apple's vague description, the MPEG-2 codex works only with QuickTime 7 (which matches my installation). You do not need to have QT 7 Pro to view MPEG-2 files, but you do need it to transcode MPEG-2 to other formats. The plug in does not allow creating of MPEG-2 files.
    You can also try searching download sites such as MacUpdate. There are shareware and freeware  utilities that claim to convert MPEG-2 files, but I can't vouch for them personally.

    Description of the add on is here: http://store.apple.com/us/product/D2187Z/A#overview
    You can download QT 7 for free from here: http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/

    I have tried to view videos created in premiere elements 10 and I get the following message: "this file type is not supported, or the required codec is  not installed.  When it opens there is a red screen in the monitor panel with Korean writing which also appears in the place of each clip in the video.  I tried uninstalling and reinstalling premiere elements 10, but that did not have any effect on the video.  Do you have any suggestions?  I researched codec, but do not understand them at all.

    In case you did not find it, the following is a copy/paste of the Announcement on Premiere Elements 19/NVIDIA GeForce
    that appears at the top of this forum.
    Premiere Elements 10 NVIDIA Video Card Driver Roll Back
    If you are a Premiere Elements 10 user whose Windows computer uses a NVIDIA GeForce video card and you are experiencing
    Premiere Elements 10 display and/or unexplained program behavior, then your first line of troubleshooting needs to be rolling
    back the video card driver version instead of assuring that it is up to date.
    Since October 2013 to the present, there have been a growing number of reports about display and unexplained workflow
    glitches specific to the Premiere Elements 10 user whose Windows computer has a NVIDIA GeForce video card. If this applies
    to you, then the “user to user” remedy is to roll back the NVIDIA GeForce video card driver as far as is necessary to get rid of
    the problems. The typical driver roll back has gone back as far as March – July 2013 in order to get a working Premiere
    Elements 10. Neither NVIDIA nor Adobe has taken any corrective action in this regard to date, and none is expected moving forward.
    Since October 2013, the following thread has tried to keep up with the Premiere Elements 10 NVIDIA reports
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1317675
    Older NVIDIA GeForce drivers can be found

  • Adobe Premiere Elements 12: This type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed

    Hallo! I use Adobe Premiere Elements 12 on my computer (PC, windows 7). When I try do re-open my projects on Adobe Premiere Elements I get the message: This type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed. The file type of my saved projects is: Adobe Premiere Elements Project (.prel). The same happens when i try to re-open the auto save files. This is very annoying because I losse all my earlier work. I would be really grateful for help. Best regards, Stefan

    With the QT Player installation, you should have Apple's H.264 CODEC.
    Maybe this ARTICLE will give you some tips on the GoPro footage.

    Welcome to the forum!
    On the one hand, I may not be fully qualified to answer you, because I have no knowledge of codecs, either what they are or what they do, and have never used them. On the other hand, I use movies often in my KN presentations with no problems.
    First, I import the movie into iTunes. Then, when I want to insert it into a KN presentation, I find it through the Media browser, and drag it onto the slide. (I suspect I don't need to import it into iTunes, and could drag it, or otherwise insert it, from wherever it resides. But all that's secondary.) If I want the movie to start immediately after the transition, without delay, I don't apply an animation to it. And that's exactly what happens: as soon as the slide before is finished, the movie starts. I can do this for full movies lasting an hour or more, but I usually just want a piece of a video, which I get by editing the original movie in QT.
    I hope my low-tech answer helps you.

  • Error occured while converting the file track #1 the required disk can't be found

    I have old CDs, I have new CDs and I have a relatively new MacBook Pro (3 years old) running current software on 10.9.4 OSX Mavericks. My updates are good on my iTunes but it won't let me import ANY CDs that I OWN! Is this the new Apple and it's iTunes update?
    Can we not legally put our CDs onto our phones or iPad/iPods any longer? Must I go garage sale-ing for a personal CD player? The code reads; "Error occured while converting the file track #1 the required disk can't be found". My cd drive is fine btw. It reads and shows on my desktop and will also play when I double click the CD icon and play the .aiff file.

    I kind of have the suspicion if you were no longer allowed to put CDs on iPods it would be front page news, not something you alone would discover.  Anyway, there would probably be a clear message to that effect rather than a technical error message.   I would take the technical problem route first rather than suspect you have been targeted for persecution.
    Have you restarted iTunes?  Have you tried restarting your computer? 
    Personally I prefer third party rippers such as XLD and Max and you could certainly try one of those to at least isolate the issue to iTunes.

  • Receive message after importing serveral songs from CD into iTunes (latest ver 11.1.5.5)... "Error occurred while converting the file 'songname'.  The required folder cannot be found."  CD/DVD ROM is no longer recognized until restart.

    Consistently receive the following message after importing serveral songs from CD into iTunes (latest ver 11.1.5.5)...

    CD/DVD ROM is no longer recognized until computer is restarted.

    I have the same problem.  I recently moved my music from a Vista PC to a new Laptop with an external CD drive. It will copy one song from the CD and it will show in the Music file and then I get the message ' Error importing a CD - Folder not found'.  I must unplug the CD drive and plug it back in.  I have seen no fix for this problem.

  • What is the required hardware to control AMC servo amplifier model 30A20AC?

    Hi everybody,
    What is the required hardware to control "Advanced Machine Controls" servo amplifier Series 30A-AC, model 30A20AC?
    The interface hardware should connect to a laptop, and run in real-time.
    Tnank you

    Hi Nkhbeik,
    I went to ni.com/motion >> choose NI Motion Hardware.  I then filtered out the hardware that did not support Real-Time by clicking on Real-Time on the left hand side of the page.  There are a number of results returned.  Depending on how many axis you need, you can filter the results further.  Any of the results can be used with the appropriate connector, either a cRIO chassis (for the 9505), a PXI Chassis (for PXI formfactor), or a PCI Extension device for a PCI card.  I hope this helps!

  • What are the required things to do the debug?

    hi Experts,
    What are the required things to do the debug?
    thanks in advance
    sekhar

    Hi,
    There are different ways to go in debugging mode.
    One way is to go to the transaction and put /h + enter in the top blank space.
    The other way is to but a breakpoint in your program.After you execute the program,it will stop at the breakpoint and go into debugging mode.
    The thirdway is to write break-point in the code at a specific point.On execution it will stop at that point.
    A fourth way is to write break (your user id).It will stop only for you and then you can debug it.
    Hope it was useful.
    Thanks,
    Sandeep.
