HT3775 .MOV format not recognized?

I recovered a video from my sd card, it is a .MOV video, but quicktime will not recognize the format? any suggestions?
The error message is
"The document 'File123.MOV' could not be opened. The movie's file format isn't recognized"

I attempted to play the videos but they are coming up as 00:00 in length
A better description of what I had done. I had purchased a recovery program for my SD card. The program worked and recovered everything, photos are find, mp3s are playing, but the videos are the only thing that do not work.

Movie format not recognized

I have a first generation Apple TV. I have used a software to convert DVD's to MP4 and it used to work great, but now a message comes up saying "format not recognized"
Any ideas why? Any ideas on how to fix it?

Compressed H.264.mov format not recognized in DVD pro?!

Hi,
I just compressed my 12 minute HD film using the "create a DVD" 90 min HD setting in compressor. That resulted in two files, one is a Dolby Digital Professional 2.0.ac3 audio file and is recognized in DVD pro, while the other is the video file H.264 6.75Mbps.mov.
Here are the video file specs:
Quicktime movie
615.6 MB on disk
Dimensions:
Codecs: H.264, Linear PCM, Timecode
Dimensions: 1920 × 1080
Audio channels 2
I tried using the regular 90min setting but I was seeing a loss in quality. I'd like to burn a good quality dvd using the compressed files, but I can't import the video file into DVD. I would greatly appreciate any help/suggestions. Thank you so much!

The conversion in scale from 1080 to 480 is probably the most frequent cause of quality dissatisfaction. Because you are inputting a 1080 file, Compressor will automatically turn on Frame Controls (which is accessed via the Inspector). Open Frame Contols. IMO, the Resize Filter should routinely be set to Best for jobs like this.
Also in the Inspector, go to Encoding>Quality and check the bit rate is set to 7.7 Mbps. If it is (and it should have defaulted to that rate, leave it unchanged.
Open Preview and mark in and out points for a short representative section of your movie. Then submit.
In DVDSP open up Preferences and verify that your Project Setting is SD DVD. Verify in General that display mode is 16:9 Letterbox.
Bring the two files into DVDSP. Use the Graphical view to delete the menu icon. Control click on the Track icon and select First Play. Build and then either waste a blank DVD-R or use and reuse a DVD-RW for the quality test. Then Format. When the DVD has been burned, evaluate by playing from your player to your TV.
Hopefully you'll like the result and can then proceed to complete the full project.

HT3775 Hi, my mac which is on 10.7.5 osx. but when ever i insert any mpeg/avi video cd it shows the file format not recognized. i am fed up of this. plz somebody help me. what should i do now.

hi,
i am using 10.7.5 lion there are a lot of problems in this OS.
like most of the programs quit's unexpectedly. some programs does not work on it. like adobe cs5 is not working. everytime time when i do click on adobe cs 5 icon it shows a message "To open “Adobe Photoshop CS5,” you need to install a Java SE 6 runtime, but you are not connected to the Internet.To install a Java SE 6 runtime later, open “Adobe Photoshop CS5” again" while i always remain connected on the net.
2. when ever i insert an avi or mpeg video disk it shows the file format not recognized. to **** with this macbook pro n its 10.7.5 lion. the same disk works/runs on windows on windows systems.
plz somebody help me what should i do now.
[email protected]

it sounds like a fualty installation of Lion, this may happen from time to time.
The best thing to do in this situation is to reinstall Lion. You will not loose anything doing this, but you should always keep back ups of your information.
http://www.apple.com/osx/recovery/
basically hold Cmd+R on boot..
first go to disk utility, verify and repair your disks and permissions. Exit out of Disk utility and then go directly to "reinstall Lion"
choose that and let it reinstall.
Adobe CS6 does need Java to run.
To play your movies you might need to get an application called VLC. VLC is a free app and will play most videos and music files you throw into it.

you have a 64bit intel mac, so get the one for that.

I have iphoto 6 and my pictures are no longer showing. I have tried importing them but it just give me an error msg. (file format not recognized) I have tried rebuilding the iphoto library but that doesn't work either. Any suggestions?

I have iphoto 6 and my pictures are no longer showing. I have tried importing them but it just give me an error msg. (file format not recognized) I have tried rebuilding the iphoto library but that doesn't work either. Any suggestions?

How did you rebuild?
Try these in order - from best option on down...
1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
2. Download <a href="http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/"><b><u>iPhoto Library Manager</b></u></a> and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new *iPhoto 6* library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Rolls and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Roll Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

Why do I keep getting "format not recognized" error?

Hello,
I was trying to play any of the video podcasts from Nick Jr (e.g iCarly, Drake and Josh) for my kids and I kept getting a "format not recognized" error on my APple TV and when trying to play on my PC with iTunes, the video doesn;t play at all. This seems strange to me as these podcasts are rated in the Top 10 under "kids and family" genre so they must be working for others. I was able to play other podcasts in this genre such as the Sesame Street podcast. Any ideas why these Nick Jr. ones aren't working for me?
Thanks!

I have been having the same problem - with podcasts AND with Movies and TV Shows bought through iTunes. I was hoping the recent 3.0 upgrade would fix it, but no such luck. While this was an occasional problem with iTunes 8, it seems to have turned chronic with iTunes 9.
The annoying "solution" that seems to work is to unplug and replug the Apple TV and quit and restart iTunes. Even then, while watching TV Shows or Movies continuously it seems to work, but after any interruption, either due to shutting off the Apple TV or letting it go to screen saver for an hour or so between shows or movies, iTunes loses it from the device list, and the "format not recognized" message returns.

Is there a way to restore photos from Drop box to my desktop iPhoto in a large batch instead of one at a time? I tried and a zip file was downloaded but won't open. Says file format not recognized.

Is there a way to restore photos from Drop box to my desktop iPhoto in a large batch instead of one at a time? I tried and a zip file was downloaded but won't open. Says file format not recognized. I see how to do it one at a time with the "download" button in Dropbox but that's so cumbersome for lots of photos.

When I tap a photo in my iPhone photo gallery, the photo appears but there is always a "this movie format not supported" alert and then the alert goes away and the photo appears. These are photos I've taken with the iPhone and aren't even movies.

It's very odd. I take photos with my iPhone and then later go to view the photos in the Photo Gallery on my iPhone. The photos to appear, but I keep getting "this movie format not supported" alerts, even though I am looking at photos taken by my iPhone. The alert appears briefly just after the photo appears and then the alert goes away and I can see the photo. They are just still photos and not movies. Why wouldn't the iPhone recognize the format of photos it is taking?

That thread helped for a time. But now it seems as though my computer is back to slow again. But, some of the jargon is over my head as well. Not sure I knew quoite everything they were talking about. But thanks a lot for that, it helped I probably just need to reread it and follow the instructions again. Thanks so much.

Date format not recognized -- urgent help needed

Hi,
I'm having a problem when start sqlplus in dos command window. If I start it from C:\oracle\ora81\bin, it won't started and error message showing like 'Date format not recognized' and then come back to DOS.
I do have OWB installed which also has SQLPLUS installed so that there is no problem if I start it from C:\ORACLE\owb92\bin.
For some reason, the path is setting as C:\oracle\ora81\bin before C:\ORACLE\owb92\bin so the default always goes to 81 folder.
If restart the DB instance, and this problem is gone. But it comes back after some application running (our own application and Oracle provided OMBPlus ). We double check our own application, and there is no where to "alter session ...".
Any help will be very appreciatged,
Thanks,
Daming

I'm having a problem when start sqlplus in dos command window. If I start it from C:\oracle\ora81\bin, it won't started and error message showing like 'Date format not recognized' and then come back to DOS.
Do you have a file called 'login.sql' in the folder 'C:\oracle\ora81\bin'? If there is one, is there an 'alter session' command in this file?

This is not recognized! The test code is as follows (removed error checking for clarity).
ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
// Get the PIM data.
ContactList contactList = contactList = (ContactList) mPim.openPIMList(PIM.CONTACT_LIST, PIM.READ_WRITE,"Contacts");
// Get an Enumeration of the contacts and loop until they are all backed up.
Enumeration enumContacts = null;
enumContacts = contactList.items();
while(enumContacts.hasMoreElements()) {
// Get the contact
Contact contact = (Contact)enumContacts.nextElement();
String[] data_formats = PIM.getInstance().supportedSerialFormats(PIM.CONTACT_LIST);
// Use 2.1 format for time being.
mPim.getInstance().toSerialFormat(contact, baos, "UTF-8", data_formats[1]);
ByteArrayInputStream bais = new ByteArrayInputStream(baos.toByteArray());
// This is where we get the "Format not recognized" message.
PIMItem[] items = PIM.getInstance().fromSerialFormat(bais, "UTF-8");
This is as basic as it gets and is driving me nuts. Why am I getting this error?
Any help is very much appreciated.

have u tried using data_formats[0] instead of data_formats[1] in toSerialFormat method? and if that doesn't work try using "VCARD/2.1" directly as the format

Adding options=(!strip) to the PKGBUILD will skip that step, but make other binaries significantly larger. If you just get the output but that package is built successfully, I would ignore it.

Youtube : movie format not Spported

Something very weird is happening on while watching Youtube on wi-fi. It goes like this
1. Search some topic - Works fine
2. Select a video for playing - works like a charm, even HD videos start play back almost immediately
3. Select another video - ERROR MESSAGE "MOVIE FORMAT NOT SUPPORTED"
4. SWITCH FROM WI-FI TO 3G - SAME VIDEO STARTS PLAYBACK WITHOUT A GLITCH
This happens for quite a few of the videos but not all.
Has someone experienced this ?
Please give some solution to this.
Some details
1. Apple IPhone 4 GSM
2. IOS 4.3.5
3. Internet connection speed - 10 Mbps, speed test results also shows the same.

I have gotten so sick and tired of not being able to see a lot of the flash videos in YouTube (desktop version) on my iPad 2 that I created a way around it on my website. Now all I have to do is paste the URL of any YouTube video that doesn't work into my search bar and it plays straight away with no lag or loss of quality.
