Imported VOB clip only plays 8 secs on Timeline (should be much more) PrePro CS5

I’m new to DVD files so please bear with me.
I have a DVD disk of some VHS home movies. The footage was converted and put on DVD by a service that does that as a business. The service included a menu and a viewer to watch on a computer if desired. It plays on fine but need to edit it.
The DVD files are as follows:
AUDIO_TS:
(empty)
VIDEO_TS:
VIDEO_TS.BUP
VIDEO_TS.IFO
VIDEO_TS.VOB
VTS_01_0.BUP
VTS_01_0.IFO
VTS_01_0.VOB
VTS_01_0.xmp
VTS_02_0.VOB
VTS_02_0.xmp
PrePro shows only the following files as Supported Media:
VTS_01_0.VOB VTS_02_0.VOB
VIDEO_TS.VOB VTS_01 and 02 will import but not the TS.VOB file. Error says, “The file has an unsupported compression type.
The VTS_02_0.VOB imports and plays fine but not VTS_01_0.1. It only plays 8 seconds and the file is 0.99GB in size.
The properties of all these files show Type of file: NeroShow Time.Files7. So I’m to assume that the service that made the DVD used Nero to burn the DVD.
Is there a work around to this or am I doing something wrong?

  • When importing rendered clips from davinci into premiere they look darker and more contrasty.

    After importing the graded and rendered clips from davinci into premiere pro cc they look darker and more contrasty. I've checked the exported files from DaVinci and they look totally fine if you play them with any media player, but when I import them in Premiere Pro CC, they appear darker and way more contrasty than I've graded them in Resolve. Anyone have a solution for that?
    Thanks!
    Andrew

    This is a long-standing and complicated issue.  To start with, different media players interpret footage differently.  You can hope for the best, but there can be no expectation that footage in one player will look the same in another.  Ridiculous, but true.  The situation is further aggravated by different display cards and different monitors, and no prevailing standards of how color and levels are interpreted.
    In your specific case, you need to look at the waveforms, in Resolve and in PPro.  It sounds as if the blacks are being crushed in PPro, which could mean you're monitoring them at 64 in Resolve, but they're being output at 0 or remapped to 0 in PP.   This may also relate to whether you've monitoring with data or video levels in Resolve. 
    Is there a setting in PPro which covers how values are mapped, as data or video?  I think so, but just can't recall....  Anybody?  Staff?

  • HT201272 1 track from iTunes is only playing until 3:50 (should be 14:48). Rest of album is OK. Happens on computer & iPod. How do I fix that track? "Purchased (new)" on right side of iTunes doesn't give me a Music option - just Apps and Books.

    Hello,
    I've purchased and downloaded an album from the iTunes store. It has 5 tracks. Tracks 1-4 are all fine. Track 5 is broken - it should have approx 15 minutes of music, but only plays to just under 4 minutes. This happens on my computer and on my iPod. How can I fix this please?
    I've tried going to the "Purchased (new)" option in the quick links on the right hand side of the iTunes store. I thought I'd see an option for "Music" on the page it takes me to, but I don't get that option: I only see Apps and Books.
    I'm using the computer that I purchased and downloaded the album from. It is authorised for this account.
    I'm not aware of interrupting the download yesterday - it all seemed OK to me at the time and I thought it had completed successfully.
    The album is Dvořák: Cello Concerto, Zuill Bailey, Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra & Jun Markl. It's the last track (In Nature's Realm) that's got the problem.
    Thanks for any help.

    Unfortunately you can't redownload music in all countries, as you have found.
    You can however contact iTunes support regarding this issue here:

  • Playback of clips only plays between 4 and 12 frames

    Hi all,
    I am fairly new to Premiere, have used After Effects CS4 to produce some clips, but need something that handles editing better, and I thought I would give Premiere CS4 a try.
    Unfortunately, I can't get Source or Sequence preview working.  I click the play button and the video plays for about 1/2 to 1/4 or a second (between 4 and 16 frames) and then stops, returning to the place where I hit play.  Almost like I had selected an in and out of 14 frames and hit "play in to out".
    The duration of the playback is random, but never more than a full second.
    The computer I am on is:
      Model Name: MacBook Pro
      OS: Snow Leopard 10.6.2
      Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
      Processor Speed: 2.4 GHz
      L2 Cache: 3 MB
      Memory: 4 GB
      Bus Speed: 800 MHz
      Chipset Model: GeForce 8600M GT   
      Bus: PCIe
      VRAM (Total): 256 MB
      Vendor: NVIDIA (0x10de)
      RAM Size: 4 GB
      Type: DDR2 SDRAM 667 MHz
      HDD: 500Gb 7200RPM (50% empty)
    Apple system updater says I am up to date.
    I have Adobe Premiere CS4 installed (trial) 4.2.1 (003 (MC: 166418))
    Adobe Updater says I am up to date.
    I have done the following to try and resolve:
    * Tried different source files (mp4, mov)
    * Tried rendering a video in After Effects CS4 as MOV H264 and importing
    * Tried putting still frames on the time line and playing those (no effects, no transitions)
    * Tried playing no video, just music
    * Ensure that "clear all markers" is done on the source and preview monitors
    * Ensure loop is not playing
    * Force in and out markers to a 5 second clip and press play
    * Full deinstall and reinstall of all adobe products (I had some CS3 left overs that I cleaned out)
    * Deleted all adobe application preferences folders before reinstall
    * Deleted plugin cache
    * Created new projects and tried all the above.
    I have tried shutting down every other program before running Premiere, it is definitely not a resources problem, there is 3Gb of RAM free and CPUs sitting at 5% when I try this.
    I am looking at buying Premiere, but if I can't get playback to work it's a bit of a waste
    Anyway, any help or pointers would be appreciated!
    Mikel

    Thanks everyone for the long thread and lots of comments, unfortunately I have tried them all.
    I even purchased a full copy of Premiere Pro (as part of a Masters collection set) and this still has not fixed the problem.
    The screen recording of my problem is exactly the same as the one linked to here: Screen Recording 2 720p.mov, and I am also going to open a support ticket with Adobe.
    Another point is that it even does not work on a tiny video that I used (320 x 240px)  Still same problems.
    This is very frustrating.
    It should be noted that After Effects and Encore both play videos fine in a similar situation, it is just Premiere that is bombing out.
    See the first post for my configuration, it is still the same, except now I own a full copy of Premiere Pro as part of CS4 Masters collection.
    Any further ideas?

  • Clip pane plays well but timeline does not!

    When I view my clips in the pane, they are ok. When they are dragged down to the timeline, they are very jumpy. I am now in iLife 5.

    I don't search your orginal posting, so I have to ask: the original material is from a mini-dv camcorder? HD or dv? HD material needs some converting before used in iM, a iMacG4 needs probably some time to do so, esp. when the imported clips is looooong (it converts the whole import, not just the edited part....)

  • Songs imported into Itunes only play for a few seconds

    I seem to have a problem with some of my songs in my library playing for a few seconds and then itunes jumps to the next song. I have played these songs before and they were fine. Once this happens once it always happens to a particular song. Anyone have any thoughts?
    thanks

    I think I might have found an answer - importing a folder and or Limewire!
    Either Limewire mess's with the files, folder or your system or iTunes attempts to stop illegally downloaded files being played. iTunes might also do it if importing a lot of files in one go.
    I imported a music folder that isn't mine from our home network drive that has a few tracks in it downloaded through Limewire. I re checked some of the files in Ableton Live and they are actually damaged! So I tried importing one of the Limewire tunes again individually after finding some info online (links to the pages at bottom) and the track plays no prob now. I also un-checked the "look for shared folders" in iTunes preferences.
    For about 2 years now I haven't been able to import more than 3 files at a time which is why I imported a whole folder (about 50 tracks) just after the software update and C.D importing.
    My concern is that importing a whole folder even without any Limewire downloads in it might well be treated this way by iTunes. Most of the tracks in our network drive folder that have been downloaded through Limewire are legit direct connect transfers from producer to producer or legit submitted tracks!
    Hope this helps.

  • My songs only play for 6 seconds

    My imported music is only playing for six seconds then going to the next track. All of my purchased music works fine though.  The imported files also play in their entirety on Windows Media Player so I know it's not the files' fault. Any suggestions?

    Sure your gone for the day, but no luck. Still get 15 sec and then on to the next song.

  • How come this sound only plays once?

    Here is a program that illustrates what I am doing:
    import java.io.*;
    import javax.swing.*;
    import java.awt.event.*;
    import javax.sound.sampled.*;
    public class soundApp extends JFrame
        JButton button;                
        Clip clip;
        public soundApp()
            setDefaultCloseOperation(EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
            setSize(300,300);
            File file = new File("tada.wav"); 
            try
                AudioInputStream audiosource = AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(file);
                DataLine.Info info =
                    new DataLine.Info(Clip.class, audiosource.getFormat());
                clip = (Clip)AudioSystem.getLine(info);  
                clip.open(audiosource);
            catch(UnsupportedAudioFileException e){}
            catch(LineUnavailableException e){}
            catch(IOException e){}
            button = new JButton("Play sound");
            button.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
            public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e){
                if(e.getActionCommand().equals("Play sound"))
                    clip.start();   //HERE IS WHERE I START IT....sorry for caps.
            Container contentpane = getContentPane();
            contentpane.add(button);
            setVisible(true);
      public static void main(String[] args)
          soundApp soundapp = new soundApp();
    }How come the clip only plays once?

    well the answer is simple, because once the clip will stop the sound will stop too. you have not used any loop or anything that shows that the clip should go on forever. you can give some condition like play the clip unless some other button is pressed or some othe action is performed or so on. just use while or any or iterative or conditional statement to get your ay out.

  • My current os x is 10.9.5, using final cut express vers. 4.0.1.  I have imported .mov clips created with a older mac os x (lion) and converted them to import into fce. after doing this as well as putting clips on the fce timeline when playing back t.h

    My current os x is 10.9.5, using final cut express vers. 4.0.1.  I have imported .mov clips created on a older mac os x (lion) and when I wanted to import them into fce, a quicktime conversion window opened up and converted them (I haven't experienced this in the past). I then imported the converted quicktime clips into my fce project.  After doing this I took selected clips and put those edited clips on the fce timeline.  When playing the video back in the fce timeline,I noticed
    1) the video wasn't playing back smoothly like the original content
    2) when looking at the timecode reading of the timeline, the timecode was sputtering as well as the video and audio.  I exported to quicktime just to see if that was consistent, it was.
    When I play the converted quicktime content independently of fce,  it plays normally (no sputtering of timecode, video and audio.  Need help to resolve the sputtering playback of converted video content in the fce timeline.  I've never experienced this before.  Any suggestions?

    When you say you converted the clips before importing them into FCE, did you convert to AIC or DV and do the converted clips match your FCE Sequence settings exactly?  If not, go back and convert the original files again, using the intended Sequence settings as a guide.

  • Can't get clips to play in timeline without rendering

    I am new at this so bear with me. I uploaded two 3 minute clips (live band footage) into FCP 5.0.1 Clip one is from a canon hv-20 1440x1080,29.97 fps, data rate 10.6. Second clip is from a pannasonic 3ccd...720x480, 29.97 fps data rate 3.6. The sequence settings are 1440x1080,29.97 fps, hdv1080i60,audio rate 48.
    The problem (besides that I don't now what I am doing) is that when I drop either clip into the timeline , I get the red line. what am I doing wrong and or how can I correct it?
    Thanks in advance,
    Carl

    #28 Having to render every clip in the timeline
    Shane's Stock Answer #28: When I put a clip in the timline, I have to render it before it will play. Why?
    Your clip settings MUST match your timeline settings. If you have DV/NTSC material, you need a DV/NTSC timeline. The frame rate, audio rate and dimensions (4:3, 16:9) all need to match exactly. In Final Cut Pro 6, this is easy, because when you drop a clip into the timeline, it asks if you want to set up the timeline to match the settings of the first clip you drag into it. Click YES and you are ready to go.
    However, in FCP 5.1 and earlier, it is a bit trickier.
    The most important thing you need to do is properly set up your project from the start, and the best way to do this is to choose a setting from the Easy Setups, located under the Final Cut Pro menu.
    Once you do this, you’ll need to create a new sequence. This is because the sequence that is already in your new project is setup for the typical default setting of DV/NTSC, or for the settings of your last project, which might not match what you are currently working with. So delete SEQUENCE 1 and create a new sequence:
    This new sequence will contain the settings you chose in the Easy Setup menu, and should match the format you captured.
    NOW MIND YOU...you are working with TWO DIFFERENT video formats. Once you set the sequence to one format, you will have to render the other. You are mixing HD (HDV from the Canon) and SD (DV from the Panasonic). For someone who is very new to this...this won't be an easy thing.

  • Clip won't play audio in timeline

    I can play and skim my clips in the event browser fine and can hear the audio, but when i bring it down in to the timeline the audio does not play only the clip, and yes in the toolbar the for the pop up menu for the append buttons all is selected, so both audio and video appear in the timeline...
    Cold someone assist please?

    The same thing is happening to me, just as Allan first described:
    I can play and skim my clips in the event browser fine and can hear the audio, but when I bring it down into the timeline, the audio doesn't play, nor does a WAV form appear in the timeline. Once in the timeline, the clip only shows/plays the video without sound.
    This is an entirely new problem for me ... Any help?

  • An event in one of my libraries no longer has the event icon next to it's name just the name only. I can't view the clips in the event or import new clips. I've tried deleting the event and nothing.

    an event in one of my libraries no longer has the event icon next to it's name in the browser just the name only. I can't view the clips in the event or import new clips. I've tried deleting the event and nothing. After control clicking the event it shows all the media that has been previously imported. But it does not allow anything to be done to the event including deleting. This showed up at the beginning of a normal import session. This is fortunately the back-up evant.

    Did you perhaps mess with the contents of the library in the Finder?
