Mega player 541 small clips during playback

hi everyone.
i'm having this issue with the mega player 541.
during playback small noises (like clipping or cpu drop in multitrack programs ) randomly.
as they are random i'm sure that the mp3 files are not corrupted.
has anyone this same problem? i guess it could be a firmware problem, but no update is available.
thanks!

in that case, you should try using different MP3 encoding software, or a different MP3 codec, in order to rip music to MP3 format.
or use WMA instead, i find the sound quality to be better, and the files are generally smaller too, so you can fit more on your player

Seeing time remaining on a clip during playback?

Is there a way to see the time remaining when playing back a clip (preferably to the out point)
I am wanting to use it for playback during a live event, but so far all I can do is give estimated time remaining, or do it the old fashioned way and back-time it in my head using notes and the current playhead position time.
I know it's risky using it for live playback rather than a dedicated video playout server, but it allows me to make last minute edits so much easier
thanks,

Hi Tracy,
I would suggest these things:
Do this first: Premiere Pro CC, CC 2014, or 2014.1 freezing on startup or crashing while working (Mac OS X 10.9, and later)
If that doesn't help, Change the Video Renderer to Mercury Playback Engine software only under File > Project settings > General. Delete previews after clicking on OK.
If nothing helps, try this:
Go to the following locations:
Location 1: When in Finder, click on Go > Go to Folder > ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe
Location 2: Go > Go to Folder > ~/Library/Preferences/Adobe
Location 3: Documents > Adobe
In all the locations, rename the 'Adobe' folders to 'OldAdobe'
Launch Premiere, accept the License Agreement and see if it works.
Note: You will lose your customized workspaces, keyboard shortcuts and media cache.
Thanks,
Rameez

DivX player - QuickTime - no sound during playback

Trying to play avi files on this MacBook - downloaded QuickTime 7 and DivX player for Mac - both play the video wonderfully but with no sound - My computer is not muted - nor do I have the DivX player muted - playback is fine on the Windows side using GOM player - Would be gratefull for any advice on how to resolve this issue

Are you actually using both programs at once? After putting DivX on any of my machines clicking a file would open it in Quicktime and play just fine, also I saw this today I havent tried it myself but people seem happy with it

Also give VLC a try
Good luck

Premiere Pro CC 8.2.0 Hanging During Playback

Hi there,
On of our editors has been experiencing Premiere hanging up on them multiple times a day during very basic actions like copying small clips or playback. The project she's working on is a 2 hour feature around 65MB with all ProRes footage on a file sharing server connected via 10GbE with the project file and media cache located locally. The editing station is a 2014 iMac with 4GHz i7 and 32GB RAM. I'm not too knowledgeable about Premiere but am wondering if there are also some settings or changes to their workflow that could optimize working with this project. There are tons of audio and video layers in the project and I'm wondering if that could be affecting performance? Again, I'm no expert but any thoughts as to why this is happening would be a huge help!
Thanks,
Jonathan

No we didn't. Thanks for the suggestion Kevin, I'll do so and then post with an update with any progress.
Thanks,
Jonathan

Mega Player 515 "Reading" Problem

Has anyone experienced problems with the Mega Player 515 (256MB) hanging during connection to a PC? It also causes windows (XP & 2000) to freeze up as well (until you disconnect the player).
I've just bought one and was copying some MP3s onto it using Windows Explorer when it just froze up during a file transfer, with "Reading" on the display (normally it says "Connected"). There was still plenty of spare memory (32MB) left. After disconnecting the USB cable, the player plays the songs fine and my PC unfreezes, but the same thing happens as soon as I plug it in again. There is no mention of the term "Reading" in the manual.
The only way to get it to connect to my PC was to delete all the songs manually from the player's menu and start again. After trying this, the player froze again after downloading only 67MB!!
I have the latest firmware (vers 2.08) and have tried the player on another computer; with the same result. Any help here?!!

I had the same problem. My firnware is newer though - 3.00.13
After trying to copy files to it froze, I then restarted my PC. It no longer is recognized by windows and does not want to start. I think the firmware is corrupted.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!

I'm seeing a strobing effect during playback of clips and timeline in FCP7. How do I fix?

I'm seeing a strobing effect during playback of clips and the timeline in FCP7. Footage isn't corrupt. Apple techs said its not hardware after their tests at the Apple store. I did a full reinstall of FCS. There's 4GB of RAM free at all times during playback. The problem is still there... How do I fix this?
Strobing:
By strobing, I mean there's only about 1 ever 10 frames playing back for me. Everything is rendered and the comp settings match the clip settings. It's not constant though, but the strobing is triggered at certain points on the timeline and effect a few clips after that (10 seconds or so at a time), and then when the next clip is displayed on the timeline the strobbing stopps and is reset back to normal playback... until another random clip is encountered by the playback head to which then the process repeats. Also, when strobbing is happening and I move the playhead back a few seconds, or pause & play, or even forward a little on the same strobbing clip (basically when i inturrupt the playback process) the strobbing STOPS! I can watch the same footage that was strobing without it strobing any longer until I move back the playhead far enough and try again, then the strobing is triggered again. I hope this all makes sense, it's very picular and I've seen or heard of nothing like it in my 4 years of editing in FCP7.

SStrange my enough the problem started occurring a few hours into the project. The only thing I can think of is that I shot with all Canon 5D mark iii footage when I usually shot with a mark ii. My workflow hasn't changed and I have never had this problem. I've also used other mark iii footage in the past without a problem but I don think I've edited entirely with mark iii footage

IDVD slideshow DVD pauses video and audio during playback...messages about sleeping DVD player

I have just burned a slideshow on iDVD from iPhoto book project. During playback, the DVD player pauses with photo visible and audio stops for same time, and then resumes after about 5 seconds. I thought the MP3 (purchased from Amazon because it was not in iTunes) format may have been the issue, so, I converted to AAC, and rebuilt slideshow from scratch using AAC music. During Preview playback, the problem does NOT exhibit...only when played from produced DVD on both computer or DVD player. I only have this one pause at same time on every DVD burned. Is AIFF a probable solution? I saw a message saying DVD player "Sleeping" or "DVD player waked from sleeping" at beginning and end of this pause.

Whoa!!! I'd back up here and make sure you have your "T" s crossed before your continue with 10,000 discs! What were your bitrates for the main track and Bonus features? Did you use AC3 audio? DVD has a bitrate ceilings of 9.8 for video. Its also important you check your bitrates in a viewer to makes sure your OK.
Bitrates are the most crucial part to control in DVD.

Clip's video momentarily freezes during playback

When playing a clip from the Clip library or in the Project timeline the application will periodically freeze; any keyboard inputs (such as hitting 'K' or 'L' during playback) are buffered. Everything on the screen freezes but the audio continues to play. After a couple of seconds the application will unfreeze and the video will "catch up" with the audio. The buffered keystrokes will then take affect.
(It's possible to skim the clip and it will not freeze during this. Skimming backwards and forwards at variable speeds works without a problem.)
For example, I choose a clip that is 11:37:44 in length. The first time the clip is played it freezes about 6 seconds in, then unfreezes 3 seconds later. The second time it doesn't freeze at all but plays straight through. The third time the clip is played it freezes about 4 seconds in and then unfreezes.
It's the random nature of the problem that is so vexing.
I'm running FCPX Trial 10.6.0 on a MacPro 1,1 with 16GB of RAM, running 10.7.5 and using a 2TB eSATA-connected RAID 10 drive. The OWC enclosure is fed by a SeriTek/2ME4 PCI card and the MacPro has been upgraded to an NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT graphics card. There is 584.29 GB available out of the 2TB.

I logged out and logged in as a different user. I fired up FCPX and imported the same event file from the book.
It did not freeze once during playback.
I then imported one of the clips (.mov) I had imported from tape. Again, no problem whatsoever.
I removed any applications launched during log-in and logged in as normal, launched FCPX and it still exhibited the same problem with freezing.
Since all of the media is on the same (RAID 10) disk and the only difference is the account I've logged in with, it appears that there is a process running under one account that is responsible for the momentary freezing. If I find what it is I'll report back.

Footage jumps in Final Cut X and Quicktime during playback

I did a simple SLOW pan shot with my Canon C100 with the media being recorded on to the Ninja 2. I transfer the media from the Ninja 2 on to an External Thunderbolt Hard Drive. When I play back the footage it jumps around. I also tried the clip in the Apple store and got the same result.
When I play the clip on my friends PC it plays smoothly.
I'm shooting Pro Res 422, 10 Bit rate, using a Mac Book Pro, OS 10.9.5, Final Cut X 10.1.3 and I have 16 gigs of ram.
Why is the footage jumpy?

Greetings Vibrant
I was thinking that your problem may lay in the SD card being not quick enough to capture the camera's 10 bit HD vision and was dropping frames etc but, you mentioned you are recoding onto an external Ninja 2 so surely that must be quick enough to record the output of the camera you would think.
I'm tending to think that your MacBook Pro, in particular it's graphics card, is not up to the task of playing back 10 bit full HD content.
Your best bet to decipher if it's the Ninja 2 thats the problem (dropping frames during capture) or the MacBook Pro during playback would be to export/convert the vision into H.264 or something smaller in size and bitrate and then play that back on the MacBook, another Mac, iPad, iPhone etc. If it's smooth, then the MacBook would be the problem. If it's still jumpy, then the problem could lay with the output to the Ninja, or the Ninja itself.
Have you tried playing back the vision from in-camera/Ninja connected directly to a HD TV ??
I've been having a **** of time these past few weeks with my newly acquired Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera with jumpy vision. Tried all of the above, sending the vision in it's native form and also numerous varying conversions, from my 27" Quad-Core iMac to my MacBook Pro, iPad Air, iPhone 5, to my TiVo's and even last night burnt onto a DVD to playback in my Blu-Ray player in the theatre room. All to no avail. I've purchased a second expensive SanDisk Extreme Pro 95MB/s card thinking the first card was a fake or something, and the new card has made no difference either.
I even completely formatted and clean installed OSx Mavericks on my MacBook Pro just to double check, but it's still choppy.
The vision even plays back choppy in the BMPCC through HDMI to a HD television but not as bad to be honest, so i'm now, after all this testing, consigned to think the camera is kaput, as the vision looks more like a huge vertical sync problem on my camera, as opposed to simple dropped frames as this camera is prone to with not so good/unsupported SD cards.
Hope that helps you a little in running tests to find where the problem lies with your vision.
P.S. I read recently during my last two weeks of wasting far too much time troubleshooting my own problem that it's best to NOT have journaling enabled on your external disk(s) that you use to capture and edit with in FCPX. Apparently Journaling slows down the read/write of the drive potentially causing stuttering to high bit-rate HD video. I'm about to disable journaling on my FCPX disk and test the outcome shortly.
Although, you are running Thunderbolt disk so you wouldn't think such a fast medium would be affected by such a thing. But, stranger things have happened .

IMovie Project seems to skip and pause very briefly during playback

I am creating a video montage in iMovie '09, though when viewing the project during playback the video does not play smoothly and seems to skip and pause very briefly while continuing to play. Each clip separately played smoothly prior to its addition into my iMovie project.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

What kind of clips are these?
Specifically, if you right-click on a clip in the Event Browser and select "Reveal in Finder", then right-click on the clip in the Finder and select "Open with...QuickTime Player, and then hit Command-I in QuickTime Player to open the Inspector Window, what codecs are mentioned next to the word "Format:"?

Premiere Elements 11 crashes during playback after adding PiP

I have Adobe Premiere Elements 11, up to date, and Windows 7 home up to date. This is a new problem that just started with my most recent project. I have done these types of edits and PiP's many times with success with the same type of source video formats, etc.
The problem: I add a small clip of video over the main video timeline as Picture in Picture. It adds to the timeline successfully and I can even play it back ok (before rendering). If I add a transition to the front of the PiP, it will crash during playback (pre-render). Or, if I render the timeline before adding the transition, it will also crash during playback once it gets to the PiP.
I tested PiP with still pictures and that works ok, it only crashes on video PiP. I have tested different video formats (from GoPro and from Panasonic camcorder) with the same results (crashes). I have uninstalled Adobe Premiere as well as Quicktime and re-installed them, same results. I am quite frustrated with the constant crashes, especially since I have done a dozen or more videos the same exact way using the same cameras and same types of video files.
Any help is appreciated.
Justin

So I created a new project using the project preset "DSLR 1080p30 @29.97". Everything worked fine in that project using the same source videos and doing PiP (tested with both methods).
I opened the project that was giving me problems and the PiP worked when using your approach of dropping the PiP clip onto Video 2 then scaling it down. I then deleted that PiP and re-added it the way I was doing it before, and it crashed the first time I tried to play it back.
I closed down Elements and again tried to reproduce the crash the same way, but this time it worked and did not crash...I tried multiple times to reproduce the crash, sometimes it would, sometimes it wouldn't...
So, I don't know exactly what the problem is. Lastnight I could reproduce the crash every time by either rendering the PiP or adding a transition to the front of it (then playing it back), every time it would crash. Now it is behaving differently.
At any rate, I will start using the correct project settings going forward and know that I can PiP using the other method as well. Maybe the project that is giving me problems is just corrupted or something, I'll toss it an start anew.

In making a "highlights" movie, using clips from different imported iMovie events, can I delete the larger iMovie event file from the Events browser and still work w the smaller clips in the Projects browser w/o having the larger files still loaded?

I have sucessfully imported 150 Sony digital 8mm movies (each one hour in length) into iMovie as 150 iMovie events. I have since successfully converted them from their original 13 Gb (.dv) file to an exported smaller 1.3 Gb (.4mv "large file") movie that I am happy with, using the iMovie projects browser. So now I have 150 " .4mv" movies on my internal HD as well as about half of my original raw data " .dv " movies on my internal hard drive.
Due to their large size (over 2 Tb), I do not have all the larger raw data (.dv) files on my 2Tb internal drive, just about half of them. What I want to do now is to create a new project in the Projects browser for each of my kids, and reload, starting with Tape #1, each of these larger files and do a highlights movie for each of my kids, wherein I pick out smaller clips from each 1 hour .dv iMovie event and paste them into the appropriate kid's Highlights project in the Projects browser.
Here's my question: If I load the first 5 large files back onto my internal HD, and paste in various shorter clips into each of my kids' Highlights project, and then if I delete those first 5 large files (they are backed up on 2 other 3Tb external HDs), can I keep doing this (reloading the next 5 large .dv files to work with), and ultimately take each of my kid's Highlights project and export as a .4mv movie EVEN THOUGH the earlier large .dv files are no longer on my internal HD, OR does my iMac need to have all these larger files loaded on my internal HD for me to eventually export each of my kid's Highlights project to a .4mv movie?
I have a 2011 era 27" iMac desktop w 2Tb HD internal and 250 Gb flash drive, and Lion OSX and iMovie 11.

Thanks. I tested it out and you were correct. I loaded 2 .dv movies from my external HD back onto my internal HD, and got them re-imported into iMovie, took a few short clips from each of the 2 iMovie events and pasted them into a new project in the Project Browser. Then I deleted these 2 "source clips" from my internal HD, closed iMovie and then re-opened it and found that iMovie would NOT export the smaller clips for a "highlights" .4mv movie without the "source clips" being available.
I read your link on Quicktime. It talks about mostly trimming, which is what I did with each iMovie event before I took each one as a project to export as a smaller .4mv file. But if I use Quicktime (do I need QT Pro or basic), what advantage is it to me to use QT over iMovie (I must admit I am a novice at iMovie and have never used QT or QT Pro as a tool)? Will it then convert any edits I make to a .m4v movie or do I need iMovie to do that?
Does QT allow trimming multiple segments out of a movie during one edit session, or can you only do 1 at a time? By that I mean that, for example, when I use Sonys Picture Motion Browser for my .mts movies, you can only set one Start and one End point for each edit/trim you do: it does not allow you to set multiple Start Stop points like iMovie allows in its Event or Project browser. You can only do one "trim" at a time, save it and then reopen to do another trim. not very useful.

My apple tv stalls during playback. How can I fix this?

My Apple TV stalls during playback. I am hooked up through ethernet so I'm certain that it is not a network issue. What happens is that after a few minutes of normal playback the movie that I'm watching simply stalls. It looks like AppleTV is trying to reboot it. if I rewind it briefly and restart the movie by pushing play it seems to be fine. But it it stalls again after a few minutes. I have to do this very often and it becomes quite distracting when you're trying to watch a show.
One thing I have noticed is that if I pause the program before it stalls and leave it for about 15 minutes I can watch a large portion of the show uninterrupted.
The files are in my iTunes library. I don't seem to have this issue if I'm playing the files from my iPad via AirPlay. I have restarted, reset, and rebooted AppleTV several times and it still keeps doing it. Any suggestions out there?

640 x 480
Widescreen 16:9
These settings are contradictory. Please post a screen capture image of the QT "Inspector" window to confirm what encode matrix setting, PAR display setting, and Scale display settings are actually embedded in your file. Also please confirm whether or not the source material was widescreen and it is 4:3 aspect you wish to correct at this point. If not, then please state the height at which the transcoded file was encoded and the target aspect ratio at which you want files to play in all media players.
Once compressed it plays back in Windows Media Player as 16:9 video.
When played back with Quicktime it is squished into a 4:3 format.
Different players dispay content aspect differently.
Why is this happening and how can I fix it?
QT 7, for instance, displays the file using specific Scale dimensions and if these dimensions are not equivalent to PAR/anamorphic playback settings, then the file can display differently in differently media players. As to fixing the problem, that depends on which setting you are trying to fix and what platform/software is available.

Premiere Pro CC 2014 - Black flickering lines during playback and when exporting video

I am fairly new to Premiere and have recently started using creative cloud on my new MacBook Pro retina - 2.3 GHz Intel Core i7 - 16GB Memory - OSX Version 10.9.4
I shot a music video using my friends camera and all the shots were absolutely fine, I dropped them into Premiere and started editing the video together.
Some of the clips are perfectly fine during playback, although sometimes my playback stutters a little, but some of the clips have strange horizontal lines that flash through them when I watch it back. I have only used basic things such as the highlight/shadow and sharpen tools in Premiere. I thought that it maybe fine once I exported the video but when I open up the exported file on my desktop in Quicktime the little black flashes/glitches are still there in some of the shots.
Here is a screenshot you can see a line halfway between the top of my head and the top of the screen, when you watch the video there are lots of these flashing about.
Could this be something that I have set up wrong?
CPU/GPU related?
Thanks,
Jordan

Hi there,
thanks for the reply!

I tried that but it didn't work unfortunately, Mine was already set to the one you said, I tried the other but no change
