Impossible to playback H.263 coded .mov

When opening a movie clip coded with H.263 an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException occurs. The file used for the test has uncompressed audio so that cannot be the problem. When playing a movie clip coded with Cinepak there is no problem.
Complete exception:
java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException

file = filechooser.getSelectedFile();
player.setMediaLocation("file:///" +
file.getAbsolutePath());
player.prefetch();
Does anybody have an idea of what is going on?

I should add that I'm using the all java version of the JMF, since it is a requirement that the final application is platform independent.

Playback buttons for flash movie

Hello, im having some difficulty adding a play, pause and
stop button to a movie I imported into flash.
The movie was imported using the import wizard in flash 8. I
did not add a skin because when I tried adding it , the skin would
not show through once I imported the finished swf file in
Trainersoft. ONly the movie would come through. So, then I decided
to add my own playback buttons to the movie. I imported the movie
again using the import wizard, i did not select a skin. The movie
was imported fine into flash. I added a play, pause and stop
buttons as new symbols each in their own layer. I added the correct
action scripting to the buttons, i preview movie and the buttons
appear correctly but nothing happens when I click each of the
buttons, the movie keeps playing without reacting to me clicking on
either the pause or stop button, or the play button.
Here is thte scripting im using.
For Play: on (release) {
myButton.onrelease = function() {
trace("onrelease called");
on (release) {
play();
For Pause:
on (release) {
myButton.onrelease = function() {
trace("onrelease called");
on (release) {
stop();
For Stop
on (release) {
" Movie".gotoAndStop (1) ;
I would love to hear from someone to help me out. Thank
you!!

First, create your play button. Click on it, and open up the
Properties Panel (Shift + F3). Type in:
play_btn for the <Instance Name>.
Then, create a new Layer in your Flash file, called Actions.
Click on the first frame of the Actions layer, and open up the
Actions panel (F9).
Type in:
stop();
play_btn.onRelease = function(){
play();
}

I am having the same problems. My guess is that a lot of people are having the same problems and just living with it. Those of us who know where to go on the Internet come here to find a fix.
It seems Verizon has some explaining to do. Maybe they should try Beta testing new software a little better. I would rather have to wait longer for something that works. I am sure that some manager or director said this is close enough, deploy it and we will see what happens. Well, you are seeing the problems. Time to fix your mistake.
All of us are telling our friends about the problems. The longer this goes on, the more people we will tell about it.
Wouldn't you rather us be telling our friends that their is an error in the new interface and that you are working hard to fix it?
If you want to be up front about this, then just tell us. We are adults and can handle it. If you made a mistake, own up to it and give us some credit for doing your Beta testing in the field.
Customer Service is all about telling the truth and if you made a mistake, admit it and lets move on with a fix. I do not want to be told again that I should be able to unplug it, power cycle it, try the on-board diagnostics, etc., etc.......
I am going to be repsonding on a daily basis to keep this topic at the top of the list.
Time to come clean. You will feel better Verizon.
Let's talk tomorrow.

Playback head won't move - no error

Hey guys, I don't really know how to describe this problem but I'm going to give it a try. I am working in Flash cs3 using as3. I have a project with 5 scenes and button nav to jump between them. When I test the project scene 1-4 play fine however when I get to scene 5 the playback head doesn't move, it just stays parked on frame 1 (button nav works, animation does not). When I re-arrange the stacking order of my scenes the same problem will occur in a different scene that had previously played fine. This issue only occurs when i test the whole movie - if I test any scene by itself it plays fine. I am not getting any AS errors which adds to the frustration. Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Tim

Button to jump to scene 5
stop()
nextbtn51.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,nextbtn51Click);
function nextbtn51Click(event:MouseEvent):void{
gotoAndPlay(1, "Section 5");
I don't think this is the problem, when I change the scene stacking order it causes the same problem in a different scene. The strange thing is if I delete one of the larger scenes before the scene 5 it will then play fine. It's a fairly large file, are there any ram limitations that might cause an issue like this?

As far as I know, the iPad cannot presently playback a full length movie from a DVD or any other source. Are there any plans to add such a capability to the iPad in the future?

Phil0124: Sorry, I guess that I may not have communicated clearly initially. The reason that I asked about the DVD reading capability in the first place is that I would like to be able to watch a movie "stand-alone" (like on an airplane) on my iPad without having an internet connection. If VUDU is strickly a streaming service that wouldn't satisfy my needs after all. After looking into the iTunes store offerings, I can see that I can either purchase a movie or rent one from them. Either way, as I understand it, the content would then reside in a file in the iTunes folder in my computer (if rented, this would just be temporarily) and could be viewed on my computer and/or transferred to my iPad for viewing. Considering the legal question, isn't there a copy being made and transferred into my possession. So,what's up with that?
Yes Vudu streams. iTunes does not. If you buy or rent a movie on your computer through the iTunes store, then you are legally entitled to transfer that movie to your digital device as long as that device is under the Same Apple ID used to download it to the computer, and is authorized to view the content. Usually this is the case if your device is synced with iTunes on the computer This is legal and covered by the terms of use of the iTunes store.
If your rent a movie on your computer you can also transfer it to your iPad but it will be removed from the computer as rentals can only exist in one place at a time. When the rental period expires the movie will be automatically removed from your computer or device, wherever it is when the rental period expires.
If you buy a movie on your iPad these can be transferred to your computer using the Transfer Purchases button on iTunes on your computer while the iPad is connected to it. Rentals on iPads or other mobile device cannot be transferred and must be watched in the iPad or device that download them.
All of these methods through the iTunes store download the complete movie to the device or computer, so no internet connection is required for watching at a later date.
Rentals have a 30 day life as long as they haven't begun to be watched. Once the movie has been started then it has a 48 hour expiry period. That is you must finish watching the rented movei within 48 hours of rental as after that it is removed from the device. You can watch it as many times as you want in that period of time though.

Slow playback on Roku2 of MOV file after Adobe Premier Element Export

I have video files from a flash camcorder that encodes as MOV files. This plays back fine on Roku2 using Roksbox and also on Real Player.
When I export a video file from Adobe Premiere Elements 4 the playback through Roksbox to Roku2 is horribly slow, with no audio. The exported file from Adobe Premiere Elements plays fine on Real Player.
I have tried a host of different setting in Adobe (H264 and MPEG4 encoders, frame size, max bit rate) all to no avail. Perhaps I am missing a critical setting. I think the problem is somewhere in Adobe Premiere because I have been successful in using Full Video Converter Free 9 program to produce MPG4 files and they have played back fine through Roksbox and Roku2.
Any suggestions very appreciated.

To find the codec details, use the programs below

It would SEEM that your output file has "something" that does not match the file that works... so use the above to find out the details of the file that works, and set your PreEl output to match

AS3 coding - movie in swf file doesn't show

I would be so greatful if someone can help with this. I've been sitting for days to find my mistake but my inexperience really holds me back here
In my spelling game I have letters falling out of the sky - players have to click on them. I tested one letter in this swf. It works as I planned but it was only one letter hard coded.
So now I have many levels and I added the letters needed for each level in arrays generated through a loop. They trace correctly, but they do not show up in this swf.
I'm sure I am just missing a bit of code in the function or didn't addChild correctly. I doubble checked that the missing MC is not behind the background by turning the backgroung off, but it is not that.
Where am I going wrong?

                                    a[ivar] = a[p];
                                    a[p] = t;

part of your problem could be that I am only seeing that you create one instance of every letter but using this letter multiple times in your Arrays
check this code:
var a:A = new A();
addChild(a);
addChild(a);
addChild(a);
addChild(a);
addChild(a);
addChild(a);
for (var i:int = 0; i<=stage.numChildren-1;i++){
    trace("checking");
    if (getChildAt(i) is A){
        trace("A found");
Flash will throw no error and you might think that you actually put multiple instances of A on stage, but in fact Flash only creates one instance.
similar thing with your code:
[a,a,f,f,f,g,g,h,h,i,i,n,n,n,o,o,o,o,s,s,t,t,t];
addChild(activeLevelofTilesArray[i]);
will not add multiple instances of your objects if you only use the new keyword once for every letter.
Another thing: Why do you need WordArray to be dynamic?
Using dynamic has some caveats: http://flexblog.faratasystems.com/2006/10/02/actionscript-3-dynamic-classes

QuickTime 7.6 crashing on playback 5.1 m4v movies

Also with perian disabled.
On mac mini.
Good to have Pacifist

Let me add some news.
QuicktimePlayer 7.6 even crashes when you try to feed it with movies compressed with Handbrake and multi audio tracks. But this has to do with HB generating tracks with "unknown" language.
You could download "Subler" which lets you edit mp4 files. Change the language to English for example and save file optimized.
Than open in QT and make the edits audio assignment described here:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1706701&start=0&tstart=0
That is all very complicated and time consuming.
I'm sure the problem for Apple is to make 5.1 passthrough and normal stereo system sounds work at the same time. You can see how problematic this is when you change the volume in QT or iTunes when playback a 5.1 audio file. It always has to be full up for passthrough.
If you chose passthrough in any App you'll loose sound output for all other apps.
That's why it is offered in ATV. But with a normal mac, you want a lot of different Apps to work at the same time, even if you have QT open and watch a movie with 5.1.
Apps like Plex don't have to deal with this. They kind of "Highjack" the whole system for their tasks.
I'm very confident that Apple handles all these problems with a new Quicktime in SnowLeopard.
ps
I've written this in the "iTunes for Windows" category already.

Impossible/to heavy to find new movies in iTunes

sry for my bad english
Current its nearly impossible to find new Movies in iTunes.
section Movies - "purchase new movies" (dont know thats right translation for "neue Kauffilme")
Last time i go to this section it give 943 Movies and now gives 1.041 Movies ...
OMG
It gives nothing to sort the Movies wisely.
Only "Name", "Release", "bestseller" and "bestseller all time".
All 4 Options are sensless.
I wrote 4 suggestion to iTunes but i dont get a response - absolute nothing. (8 or more months ago)
At this time i must visit all 1.041 Movies and i must decide what is new and what is old ... but 1.041 Movies ... i guess i dont find all new Movies and its boring and waste of my time.
1 or 2 years ago iTunes reset the List and the category has "only" 100 - 200 movies - ok, thats barely ok but not 1.041 ...
I need a option "add to iTunes" and its easy to see which movies are added in last time (i must only notice the last added movie) or i need a easy alternative to export the list from all new Films from this category and i can import the list in excel and when apple add new movies in iTunes i can compare the old and new list and i see what is new and what is old.

That usually worked for me too. However there are some small differences with content encoded by Handbrake 0.9.2 vs 0.9.4. I'm running some tests to see if Handbrake is the "problem".

[solved] video playback stops when I move any window in xfce

Hello,
when I view a video with xine or mplayer and I move/resize any window the video playback stops.
In xine the audio still plays, in mplayer video and audio stops.
When I stop moving or resizing the window the playback continues.
Is this normal in xfce or xorg in general ?
Do other desktop environments handle this without stopping the video playback ?
How does it work on your systems ?
I am using the "nvidia" driver (geforce m 8600 gt - notebook). I haven't tested it with "nv".
Last edited by baro (2009-04-28 15:03:21)

ok, there is a setting for hiding a windows content on resizing for moving.
I thought this would just apply to the window I resize and not to all windows on the desktop.
Unmarking those did fix my problem.

IDVD stops when coding movie

I run iDVD 7.0.2 and iMovie 6.0.3. System 10.4.11
When I create a DVD in iDVD it always stops after rendering menues and says:
"There was a problem when coding moviefile".
iDVD gives this message immediately when it starts working/rendering the movie file from iMovie.
No other application running meanwhile.
There has never been a problem w. iDVD before, I`ve done a lot of discs.
What`s wrong!
Please help me!

I`ve tried a new user account
I`ve reinstalled Quicktime
I`ve reinstalled iDVD
But it won`t work, same problem.
My intuition tells me there is some kind of incompability between the iMovie version and the iDVD version, but I don`t know
Shall I try an older iDVD theme from the program? Now I try a new theme from the latest iDVD version.

Premiere Elements 11 - No audio on playback using MP4 or MOV video files

Hello,
I've recently started using Premiere Elements for a project I'm working on and I'm learning as I go.
When I'm adding a video that plays audio in another program to Premiere, the audio won't play.
I've checked the audio and audio hardware settings and they both seem fine. The mixer is not muted and when I publish the file, there is still no audio.
Any help or suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks,
Dale

DovSolomon
I am assuming that you are working with Photoshop Elements 12 and Premiere Elements 12. On what computer operating system are they running?
Can you open your .avi file in the Elements Organizer 12 and playback the file there and hear audio in the playback?
We have just helped a Premiere Elements user resolve a no sound with .avi file in another thread. Her answer was to update Premiere Elements 12 to 12.1 (See opened project Help Menu/Update.) Why is there no sound on avi files?
The details are in the link cited in my conversions with the user Vickie.
The full video and audio properties of the problem files are needed to evaluate situation such as you describe. In the case of the other user, she was not able to give us anything beyond .avi file. But, fortuately that 12.0 to 12.1 suggestion came to the rescue nonetheless. Bottom line is that, if the 12.0 to 12.1 Update does not resolve your issue, then we will need to go "by the book" and gather file properties, project settings, and the like to try to target the cause of your audio issue. Have you added to this project any narration clips from the program's Narration Tool?
If you create a new project, can you hear the audio from this .avi file in it? Is the problem confined to one .avi file or to any of these .avi files that you import into new or pre-existing projects. Can you hear the audio from non .avi files?
Looking forward to your follow up.
Thanks.

How can I improve playback of HD QT movie

I created an HD Quicktime movie from FCP > Compressor that plays flawlessly on a new iMac at my local access station. The same file played from the same external Western Digital hard drive plays in a jerky, stuttering fashion on my G5 at home. I transferred the file to my computer hard drive and have the same jerky results. My local access station tech friends have no clue as to exactly why I am having this trouble. Any ideas from the knowledgeable group on this forum? Should I post this question on a Power Mac G5 discussion board?

I don't know how to determine if my client's computer will be able to play the file until she fires it up and tries to play it . . . which raises an interesting philosophical question.
If the file plays flawlessly on the iMac, the same computer on which the file was created, is it the viewer's responsibility to have the equipment to successfully play the file, or is it the file creator's responsibility to create a file that will play, regardless of the equipment limitations of the client? Just as there is no recourse for the deficiencies of my G5, how can the creator be responsible for the equipment of the file, if the file is created with a standard codec such as H.264? Unless an esoteric configuration is used in the process that inhibits a late model computer from being able to play the file, I would think it's the responsibility of the viewer to have equipment that can handle the needs at hand.
A simple analogy would be a consumer purchasing a book. It's up to the reader to make sure that they have the technical ability to be able read it, either by having enough light, the right eyeglass prescription, or knowledge of the written language. How can the publisher be responsible for the technical fulfillment of the consumer to actually be able to read the book? They can't . . .
Any thoughts about this?

Apple tv giving playback problems for purchsed movies

My movie purchase on apple tv keep stoping to load every 15 minutes while im watching the movie. Has his happened to anyone else? My signal strength is strong and i have watched other movies on my apple tv and not had a problem. Can someone help?

Are these locally stored movies or streaming via iCloud?
Signal strength isn't always a good indicator. Check istumbler or netsumbler for interference.
