.mov files displaying choppy/glitchy

Hi, I am having some trouble reviewing some clips in Premiere. The footage I was given has some 29 fps .mts files and some 60 fps .mov files (they were shot on different cameras). The .mts files look fine when I review them but when I play the .mov files they are extremely choppy and slow and often I get a "media pending" screen. Could someone help me out? Do I need to convert the .mov files to work with the .mts files? Is is just my laptop that is having trouble processing the files (and if so how do I fix this?)

I upgraded to the latest Premiere and the clips are loading a bit quicker but I'm still getting these
sort of glitches and a lot of 'media pending' messages. I've tried exporting pieces with the glitches as quicktime files just to see if that would remedy the problem but it doesn't fix anything.

  • Why don't .MOV files display thumbnails in XP?

    Can ANYONE see .MOV thumbnails in XP? If so, how? I have the most recent version of QT loaded, but .MOV files show a QT logo, not an image preview.
    .WMP and .MPG files will show a thumbnail.
    Is there something I am missing?

    James,
    Thanks for your response.  The image was on a site I maintain.  I have already replaced the image with a jpg, which works fine.  I believe I can duplicate the problem, if you think it is worth it.  Gimme a few...
    http://www.oaksbible.org/Contents/about2.html is the page with the png I restored to use.
    http://www.oaksbible.org/Contents/about.html is the page with the replacement jpg
    Just checked.  The png still does not display on iPhone(5) or iPad(3).  The image was also made by me in pixelmator and both (png and jpg) were exprted from pixelmator.
    thanks again,

  • Playing .MOV files are choppy on DVDs

    I record audition videos using the front face camera on my iPad 3 so it would be in the required 4:3 format and in pure .mov format (no conversion needed).  It plays fine even when I play it on my Windows desktop.  My problem is when I play them from the Standard DVD I burned them to it is choppy.  Sometimes the video freezes and the audio plays normally or the other way around.  If I replay the same video again it still happens but at different times.  I bought the iPad because I thought the issue was with the conversion from the camcorder mpeg format to mov format; but the video is now in pure mov format straight from the iPad.  If I copy the video from the DVD to the computer it plays fine so I know the file is good.  I have tried different brands of DVD disks and also different DVD burning drives, same result.  I have use the Windows burning app and InfraRecorder app, same result.  I am considering something like NERO 11 but do not want to get stuck with something else I do not need if it does not fix the problem.
    Is there some magical procedure I need to do to get the videos to play smoothly?
    Equipment at home: Win XP PC, Win 7 64-bit laptop, iPad 3

    Now a technical question:  How does changing the Data rate affect the quality of the video?  I started with an 8x CD speed (2400 kbits/sec) but wonder if I should up it to a 12x or 16x.  Since I am not sure what speed DVD-ROM the viewer will have I do not want to go too high and end up with choppy video again. But then again, any computer (Apple or PC) now-a-days should have a ROM drive 16x or higher, don’t you think?
    Not sure if you are referring to the burn speed here or the encoded data rate of the file. Slower burns usually better in terms of the "burn" quality which may make a differece to some CD players. Encode data rates improve video quality up to a point but, of course, increase the size of the file you burn to optical disc. I normally use an 8X burn rate for maximum device compatibility and limit encode data rates to the 4.0 to 5.0 Mbps range. This is about the same data rate range used on single layer MPEG-2 DVD players and usually provides a "quality ceiling" greater than MPEG-2 DVDs since the H.264 codec is more efficient.
    Also, is the Video Data rate and Optimized for CD/DVD-ROM the only things I need to change?  I did not touch the Motion or Audio side leaving them at the default settings.
    These two settings are the most critical since they determine how much data is packaged and how it is packaged. Frame rates, key frame rates, and other settings determing how data is distributed per unit of time but are more frequently used to improve the rendering of objects in motion or having complex motion vectors, better rendering of fades, change the "per pixel" data rates, etc. How you manipulate these settings is often a matter of personal preference depending on the actual content of the mendia and is frequently the reason why proper encoding is considered an "art" by some.

  • Stop .mov file displaying before fully loaded

    I have several Quicktime files generated using Keynote '09 that are embedded in HTML. They work fine and are not too big (all under 10mb). They are set up as slideshows and use hyperlinks to move forwards and backwards. They do not use the Quicktime controller.
    What I want to do is to somehow (and I'm not fussy how!) stop the viewer using the links before the files fully download. The reason for this is that using the links before the file has downloaded produces some strange behaviours. For example, if you click the forward button on the first frame before the file downloads it goes to the second frame then back again, then forwards to the second frame and so on—it sort of gets stuck in a loop.
    I am a very new Quicktime user and any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Why thank you Ricktoronto, it works!
    Apologies for not getting back sooner but I thought my account was set up to notify me if I got a reply. More dumbness on my part, no doubt!

  • Imported MOV files are running choppy and I can't edit in the source window..anybody can you walk me thru how to fix?

    My MOV files are choppy in the SOURCE window where I'm trying to edit.  Please help....I have a camera that I use for that is drone footage no audio and it imports fine; never choppy easy to edit.  Now I'm trying to import video from my Lumix; it's bringing in audio that I don't need but the files are choppy and am unable to edit.  Have been watching tutorials but I can't seem to fix the problem still. 

    Thanks for your patience with me.  I have tried what you mentioned and dragging the clips in question to the new item icon.  Sometimes it works fine and others it gets hung up again.  However, I'm used to editing when the file is in the source area (upper left corner ...see file attached...screenshot).  When I do the task you mentioned it immediately puts the entire clip before I edit in the lower right and it doesn't appear i can edit as easily.  Does that make sense?
    I'm starting to think my computer isn't powerful enough?  ):

  • Seamlessly Concatenate (Stream) a list of MOV files

    I have three questions:
    1) Is there a way to seamlessly play a list of MOV files? For example, input would be a list of URLs for MOV files, and the output would be the MOV files displayed sequentially without any pauses or blips. The MOV files would be streamed to the screen and concatenated on the fly.
    I have tried this:
    1) Set the setMediaLocation to a MOV location
    2) start the mediaPlayer
    3) wait until the getState of the mediaPlayer is no longer playing
    4) reset the setMediaLocation and play the next file.
    This way has annoying pause in between each MOV video clip. This is probably because the movies are not prefetched beforehand.
    2) Is there a way to seamlessly stream a MOV files when they become available? For example, if I have a list of 5 MOV files and only the first one is created, when the URL for the next MOV file becomes available, is there a way to play the next file without a pause or blip?
    3) Is there any way to get rid of the pink background that occurs when you move the frame that contains an MOV file? A windowListener maybe?
    Thanks! Any help in answering these three questions would be VERY MUCH appreciated!

  • .MOV files Media offline Line Premiere CC  - Any ideas. ?

    Hey all.
    I am have a problem with .MOV files displaying in the premiere timeline.   The .MOV files were converted to that in the Go Pro software.
    A/ I have just opened a project via a USB 3 raid drive. The project was created on a windows 7 machine running Premiere CC. 
    B/ Now I have opened it on a different newer windows 7 machine with more Ram and I7 compared to I5
    C/ All of the .MOV footage is no longer displaying.  I have installed Quicktime on the machine and it makes no difference.
    Any ideas what is stopping the footage displaying? .  It is showing Media Offline.  I checked and all of the footage is still in the same place on the raid drive. 
    Machine one  Windows 7 Now has a paid version of Full Premiere CC ( I can still open it on this old I5  Machine )
    Machine Two Windows 7 Trial  version of Premiere CC   The footage was edited on the other machine while CC was in Trial version so,  I feel that is not the issue.
    Any idea are appreciated, Am I missing a Codec ?
    Thank you for any input.

    This was this Free codec that I needed.

    The .MOV Go Pro Footage is now working.  It is now just the .MOV lower 3rds from Audio Jungle that are not displaying.

  • .mov file does not display on the web-site

    iWeb is easy to use but my simply link to a .mov file does not work. I am working on the Domain file on my Desktop so I can move it between computers, and it renames the media file in the inspector from name.mov to name-1.mov. In the end the site does not display the animation.

    Are you linking to this file so that it can be downloaded from your website?

  • .mov file won't display video

    I ran across a DXG digital video camera/camcorder/MP3 player/voice recorder, model 506v yesterday, on sale for $89.
    <http://www.dxgtechusa.com/index2.html>
    I couldn't resist.
    The manual says it can shoot video in both .avi and .mov format, and that the .avi is better quality. Since I use a Mac, and prefer the .mov format I shot a brief scene on my deck in .avi format, then switched to .mov, and shot the same scene. In the little camcorder window, both played back with video and audio. I then imported them into my laptop, and found to my surprise that-
    1) the .mov (QT) file opens to a white video screen and you can hear the audio (This is not yet in iMovie/FCP) In other words, I got
    audio but no video visible. It's 'there', because when you ask QT to 'show
    movie properties', it shows a video MPEG 4 -- you just can't 'see' it.
    2) the .avi file opens as expected, both video and audio displayed, though it does still need 'conversion' to get the sound in iMovie/FCPro.
    Why, pray tell, would the .mov format not work?
    Hal
    Here is the 'movie info' for two of the files, one .avi, one .mov:
    MPEG0001.AVI
    Format: XVID Decoder, 640 x 480, Millions '.mp2', Mono, 44.100 kHz
    FPS: 30
    Data Size: 9.32MB
    Data Rate: 4648.66 kbits/sec
    MPEG0002.MOV
    Format: Apple MPEG4 Decompressor, 640 X 480, Millions
    Microsoft ADPCM, Mono, 44.100 kHz
    FPS: 30
    Data size: 9.65 MB
    Data Rate: 4702.07 kbits/sec
    PowerMac G4 -dual 800, MacBookPro   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  
    PowerMac G4, dual 800-MacBookPro   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  
    PowerMac G4, dual 800-MacBookPro   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    FYI:
    I tried VLC, and it worked - in that it opened both the video and audio, but I couldn't figure out how to save it using VLC in a format that would work in QT/iMovie.
    I then decided to conduct an experiment, a very 'scientific' experiment: I went to Version Tracker, and got a list of video converters, then using the criteria of 'at least' four stars , and 'cheap' -- either free or shareware -- I download these three:
    EASYWMV<http://www.easywma.com/wmv/>
    iSquint<http://www.isquint.org/>
    DivX<www.divx.com>
    The first one, EasyWMV worked: it converted the .mov file to a .mp4 file, which opens both audio and video in QT, and imports into iMovie.
    The other two didn't work, in that they couldn't/didn't display the video.
    The EasyWMV only converts 1 minutes of video for the free version: for $15, you can get the full featured version.
    Since there is no appreciable improvement, in using a .mov format vice the .avi file, I'll probably stick with the .avi file format, and use MPEGStreamClip to do the conversion.
    That being said, I'm still curious: I'd like to know why QT doesn't open the .mov (which I think of as a QT format) file? Presumably it doesn't have the proper 'codex'?

  • I need IE9 to display 1st frame of embedded movie file

    I have embedded a .mov file into my site. The movie itself, the first frame is a photo. On safari & firefox on my mac, the video appears with the photo as the first frame (which is what I want). However when I view the page on my mum's windows laptop using IE9, the first frame is black. The video plays fine, I just need it to display the first frame rather than a black frame.
    The code that I have used is
    <embed src="http://www.theamateurchef.co.uk/userimages/AppleCrumbleP.mov" autoplay="false" controller="true" loop="false" pluginspage="http://www.apple.com/quicktime/"" height="378" width="477"></embed>
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Ally

    Yeah.... works fine for me in IE9 also.... eventually. The problem may be that you are not waiting long enough to view the video, especially if you are on a slow connection.
    The video file is NOT being progressively downloaded... meaning the entire file must download before the first frame displays. The reason for this is most likely that the MOOV ATOM is placed at the very end of the video file... so the vid player doesn't get the signal to start playing until the very last part of the video file is downloaded.
    This is a common problem with many Quicktime video files. There are a number of ways to "swap" the MOOV ATOM from the back of the line to the very front... start here:
    http://renaun.com/blog/code/qtindexswapper/
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8c8oqNX4b3k
    Another method is to open the vid file in QuickTime Pro and re-save the file. This will usually correct the index problem.
