HT3775 how to play a sony video?

How do I get the Sony video I took to play on my MacBook Air?

Quicktime X is a great little piece of software. However, Quicktime X is very finicky on which codec/file format it can decode/play.
Luckily, there are DOZENS of alternative video/media players and extensions available for the Mac. Some of them are even FREE. Some of the better FREE ones include...
PERIAN (quicktime extension)
http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/22923/perian
QUICKTIME 7.6.6
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL923
VLC Media Player
http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/5758/vlc-media-player
NICEPLAYER
http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/15136/niceplayer
... And if none of those work, there is a possibility that, that video file may be corrupted.

  • How to play a AVI video file in Nokia 5230

    Hi, Can anybody please tell me the procedure how to play a avi file in Nokia 5230.Thx in advance.

    5230 can't play .avi files out of the box you need to install application like smartmovie player or core player to play it. These two, unfortunately, aren't free. A work around is to convert .avi files to .mp4 format using a video converter like Super by erightsoft(google for it).

  • How to play Youtube/Hulu videos without disabling hardware acceleration

    I have the Acer AspireRevo AR3700 nettop computer.  I cannot watch any Youtube or Hulu vidoes without disabling hardware acceleration.  I hear sound, but I do not get any video; all I get is a black screen.
    The computer has the latest Nvidia Ion processor.  One of the major selling points of this computer, along with this particular GPU, is that it can play videos WITH hardware acceleration.
    I have searched far and wide on the web and the only solution I can find is to disable hardware acceleration.  Unfortunately, that defeats the purpose of having the Nvidia Ion GPU.
    Please advise me on how I can get the videos to work without having to disable hardware acceleration.  I DO want to take advantage of hardware acceleration, so please do not tell me to simply disable it.
    Please help.

    The native Android Youtube player does a much better job of handing video playback than embeded flash in a browser.

  • How to play a GP video clip on a PC

    I cant play a GP video clip sent to me on my pc what download do i need and where can i get them

    With "GP video clip" are you referring to the .3gp files that phone cameras usually save videos as?
    If so, the Nokia PC Suite comes with a "View multimedia" app that can show them on Windows:
    http://www.nokia.com/pcsuite
    Apple's QuickTime player can also show the videos (on a PC running Windows or a Mac).
    I should think that the latest RealPlayer can do it on PC's, too.

  • How to play back AVCHD video files without jerkiness result?

    Hi all, I have an iMac 27" 3.06Ghz as well as the new MacBook Air 13 1.86Ghz, and both have 4GB of RAM. When I tried to play back AVCHD video files (*.mts) recorded from my Canon HF200 HD camcorder, the play back is always jerky and choppy. I have tried various software like Perian for QT, VLC, MPlayer Extended, all have the same result. However, I can play back other 1080p files like MKV and MOV just fine.
    Is the jerkiness problem that I am seeing due to underpowered hardware? or is it I am not using the correct software? Note that I am not trying to edit HD videos, I just want to be able to play them back smoothly. I can play the same files on Windows 7 natively without any issues.
    I am curious if any of you have the same problem. Please help!
    Thanks in advance.

    Swaza,
    Just thought I would jump in and share some experiences with .tod and .mod files.
    I too have the JVC GZ-HD7 camera and I can confirm that the new version of the MPEG-SC 1.93beta will open and convert .tod to .mov for use with iMovieHD. I am not sure that the files can be used with iMovie08 since I have not tried, but it will work in iMovieHD just like any other qt or .mov file import.
    Also, you can use the QTpro plugin that came with the camera (should be on the CD as the only MAC software available.) This will allow you to open the files in QT and convert them to any other format needed. This plugin unfortunately does not allow QTpro to open the older .mod files of previous JVC cameras. For that you can still use MPEG-SC.
    In my experiences over the last few weeks, having mistakenly dumped all of my footage onto my hdd as I used to do with my older JVC cameras, I am now stuck with 3 hours of footage on my HDD as .tod files. I have been struggling to find the right blend of codec type, compression amount, fps, and quality to convert these files in an acceptable resolution (1920x1080 full - another mistake since iMovie08 will not import this quality but will import the 1440 CBR mode.) Converting these files is a nightmare and has become a stain on my otherwise wonderfu lexperience with this new camera (It is an awesome camera despite what negative stuff the "Canon fanboys" are saying!) It takes an unbelievably long time to convert. And you will find that when viewing these files in QT either as .tod or even after converting to .mov, they will be jerky and stutter. I believe this is more to the fact that the files are just really huge. Playback inside of iMovie06HD was perfect for me though.
    Hope this helps out and I hope others may offer solutions as to what codecs they are using and what settings they are using to keep the quality as high as possible when converting these files.
