Mp4 (h.264) movie stucks during playing

Hello,
there is a problem with my Premiere CS 5.5 (Master Collection): after I export my project to h.264 (HDTV 1080p 25), it stucks in my media player (vlc) for a few seconds in the beginning, around 10 sec:
it freezes for a moment and than jumps 2 or 3 seconds. But it is OK when I upload it for example youtube and it runs perfectly in windows media player, too. It has started from one day to the other
and I haven't changed anything in/on my computer. I tried to watch these films on other computers too, also in vlc; some of them played perfectly and others made the same freezing in the beginning.
Any ideas? I tried different codecs and export settings, nothing has changed yet. Oh and an important thing: if I don't put any effects on the clips, it works perfectly....
thanks!

Try reducing the 'Target Bitrate' and 'Maximum Bitrate' in your Media Encoder settings.

  • MP4 H.264 video won't play in Flash Player

    I am using a Mac Book, OS X 10.8.5; FireFox 32.0.1; Flash Player 16.0.0.305.  I am trying to play video (MP4 H.264 format) that works on VLC, Quicktime Player & Real Player but won't play through Flash Player.  Why?

    I'll take a look at the GPL sources to see how the firmware encodes the video output, I think the mpeg encoder might be built into the firmware's Linux kernel (instead of a stand-alone encoder program), I see references to the IBM mpeg2 headers but I'm not sure. But honestly addressing this possible bug is not the first thing on my todo list, but I do fidn this report interesting enough to merit investigation. 
    May I ask what you are using for the Samba server (aka windows shares)? Do you use your desktop PC, or perhaps a NAS server? 
    As an interim thing to try, I advice you install VLC media player to view the files, or to use VLC to examine the media files properties to see what you can findout. 
    IF you must use Windows media player, then I suggest you look into the combine community codex package.

  • Apple Tv rented movie shutdown during play, not highlighted as hired / able to replay, fraud!

    Rented Epic tonight
    Started watching and it shut down during play, for no reason
    Cannot Replay cause it doesn't appear as rented.
    Connection is allright (duh, hense this post)
    Apple Support unavailable.
    Thank you for ruining my evening and stealing my hardearned cash.
    This goes out the window, along with my thoughts about it.

    Ok nw the rented film is on the iPad which won't play and when I looked at the Mac I was greeted with an error message saying that the film could nt be transferred because the file had already been transferred somewhere else!  Thing is I can see it on theioad and the Mac still!
    Obviously the film Kees checking where it as you can't watch it in two places at the same time. I can understand that but I knw it's not anywhere else.
    The only thing I can think of is if when time machine backs it up it thinks it's being watched!
    Any ideas anyone?

  • VideoDisplay component to play mp4/h.264 content

    Hi,
    I want to build a simple video player that plays HD movie
    content.
    Can the VideoDisplay component in flex builder 3 be used play
    mp4/h.264 content?
    If so how is it done as I have tried setting VideoDisplay's
    source to a local MP4 file and it will not play? I know for sure
    that the file is loaded and that it is h.264.
    Can anyone please help me?
    Regards
    Adam

    Hey chief,
    I think you'll find the answer to this issue lies in your
    encoding, not in Flex.
    The VideoDisplay component plays FLV files and H.264. Your
    video file must adhere to the MPEG4 specs. If you've created an MP4
    file using an Adobe product, this should work if you did not stray
    too far from the Adobe Media Encoder settings, like trying to
    squeeze the file size down too far. Flash player 9.0.115.0 or later
    must be used to view H.264 video.
    If in doubt, use AME to create a small MP4 clip at default
    settings (use something like "web banner 320x240") and see if that
    plays. If it plays, start going through all your encoding settings
    and see if you set something out of spec--like maybe the audio
    settings. Just use straight AAC for the audio, 48kHz, 192 kbps
    bitrate. Video, use NTSC (fps shouldn't matter...) progressive,
    square pixels, "main" profile, "level" of 3. Change the Bitrate
    encoding to CBR (you are probably using VBR for high quality, but
    just try it).
    Any of these settings may trip Flex up. You just have to
    experiment. If this doesn't work, send me some more info on how you
    created the video file.

  • I need an app for my Mac Pro to convert MP4 to MOV  format to play in a DVD player

    I need an app for my Mac Book Pro to convert MP4 to MOV  format to play in a DVD player.  Thanks

    Quicktime can do this.
    Open the MP4 in Quicktime Player. From the menu bar, File >Export > select quality. The subsequent file will be saved as .mov
    Alternatively, you can simply change the extension on the mp4 file to mov since the codec is the same.
    *I should mention that .mov format is not DVD format (TS_VIDEO), and the DVD will not play in a DVD player, even if you successfully burn the file to it.

  • Dynamic Streaming - problems with MP4 (h.264)

    Hey Flash Guru's
    Im wondering if anyone have had any similar problems with the MP4 (H.264) format when implementing Dynamic Streaming using a FMS server?
    Basicly we developed a player that detects the users bandwidth and plays the appropiate VOD stream (500, 1000 or 1500 kb/sec). Its tested with NetLimiter and works perfectly switching bitrates/files during the movie with both MP4 (h.264) and FLV (On2Vp6).
    The problem occurs when you seek (jumps in the progressbar). When playing the MP4 files the player often uses 2-10 seconds to start the stream again. But when using FLV files the seeking is seamless and starts the stream within 2 seconds everytime.
    So my question is if the FMS servers, Flash or the Dynamic Streaming got an issue with MP4 files?
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Best regards
    Bo

    H264 content does take quite a few images to get rolling before playback starts.  That's normal but it shouldn't take 10 seconds - it sounds like your buffer length might be overly long and it's taking a while to fill up after the seek.  Consider keeping a short buffer like as small as 0.1 seconds for playback starts.  Once you get your Play.Start or your Buffer.Full message then you can adjust the buffer length on the fly to something longer to handle the bumps.
    It's also possible that you're getting the high bandwidth stream again when you seek by mistake.  Check your server logs to see that you're getting the play that you're expecting there.

  • How do I convert an .mp4 h.264 file into a simple Mpeg 2 file...

    I've had Quicktime for quitesometime now.
    I'been been through many QT versions but version 7 series, I think has problems.
    I've been dl'ing .mp4 files, with h.264 codecs.
    Quicktime plays them wonderfully but I'd like to put the movies on my media servers and stream them to my network dvd players(thin-clients).
    They can stream mpeg 1 and 2 great, as well as Xvid, Divx, and even VOBs'.
    I installed Quicktime 7 along time ago, and tried an export to many different data file formats. I would either get no video or no sound. I have just about every codec needed to do any conversion to Divx or Xvid.
    I also installed 3ivx.
    Can anyone tell me how something so simple can be so difficult? QuickTime, if it plays it, and shows that its capable of exporting to different formats, should be able to do the job.
    Beleive me, I know what your thinking. I've going as far as formatting, reinstalling Windows XP Pro, Updating, etc many times just to try to re-encode these .mp4 files into something big, yes, a large RAW file. Something that can be easily converted into anything else such as the basic old Mpg 1 or 2 file...
    Please, any help would be apprecaited!

    I tried ffmpeg but it just doesn't seem like it does a very good job at converting. I dont know why, but I think its because the .mp4 file has 6.1 sound or that new acc codec.
    I'm not sure about it, but when I do use ffmpeg, the sound doens't come out.
    Thanks!
    Dave.
    QuickTime doesn't have the capability to export to
    MPEG-1 or MPEG-2, at least not without third-party
    codecs (and I'm not aware of any for Windows for
    those formats, though there could be some somewhere).
    You might want to take a look at the open-source ffmpeg which can
    convert H.264 to MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 (as well as a
    number of other formats).
    Hope this helps.

  • H.264 mov to Flash

    Adobe says Flash now "supports H.264 encoding". Since this
    encoding is QuickTime engine (ISO standard), how do I get an
    H.264-compressed MOV file to play in Flash Player? (e.g "import to
    Flash, export as FLV" or some such).
    Thanks in advance.

    OK I know this is and old post.. but it is EXACTLY what I am looking to do.. only instead of starting with an MOV file encoded with H.264 I am starting with an MP4 file encoded with H.264.
    When I follow chabotjeff steps above.. what I end up with after exporting my movie containg the FLV to an SWF file is a white screen that plays the audio but NO VIDEO shows up at all  :-(
    Here are links to all my fiels for reference:

  • Convert video to  mpeg4 h.264 .mov on iMac

    how do I convert my video to mpeg4 h.264 .mov on my iMac 10.6.6?

    I have problem with the same thing. Getting my videos into MPEG4 format in good quality.
    I tried according to these instructions but the quality is really bad.
    Sound is perfect but the video picture is really bad.
    Any idea what to do?
    I have used a program from handbrake.com to convert the .m4v files into .mp4.
    It does the work but when putting the videos online on WP blog it takes ages to get the video to run. It must first upload (several minutes and then it starts to play).
    Have anyone any idea what to do to get tehn play smoothly online?

    I turned on my mac this morning after using Qt all day yesterday with no problems
    I get this message
    The document “BOULET PEANUT - OFF LINE 3-QuickTime H.264.mov” could not be opened. An unknown error occurred (-101)
    Also QT will not play the audio of the files
    I'm on a mac pro, 10.7.4
    Everything updated
    Any know whats up and can help solve this, it seems to be a software related problem to QT 7 or X

    Exactly the same by my iMac.
    "The document ... could not be opened. An error occurred (-101)"
    I can play the same video with VLC player but not with QuickTime.
    QuickTime and iTune can not play anything at all.
    VLC Player however can play all medias without any problem.
    All my apps are uptodate.
    What could be the problem?

  • After loading k-lite can't view converted h.264(mov) files on quicktime

    Got an hd camcorder for christmas that records in the h.264(mov)format. Could only play files on quicktime 7 but processor to slow and video stuttered and lagged audio. Downloaded binks radtools to convert file to avi, which played farely decent in quicktime. Decided to try k-lite codec pack to see if i could improve on this. While instaling, k-lite told me "the preferred source filter that "h.264" is set to is invalid" and asked if it could remove it from the windows registry. thinking this could be problem i click yes. k-lite did not improve viewing with its instaled player and when i tried to play my converted file in quicktime i get only white screen but good audio. removed k-lite but still get same results with converted avi file in quicktime. (I think the preferred source removed was a nero application)
    Does anyone have any ideas on how to repair this? I want to purchase quicktime 7 Pro to convert files to avi but not if i am going to get the same playback results.

    If you can't find it in QuickTime Pro, ask the person that created the files.
    FWIW, you'd be better off just capturing the DV tapes in FCP directly.

  • Export multichannel mp4/h.264 with Adobe Premiere Pro CC

    Dear community,
    we currently test the Adobe Premiere Pro CC trial (German) on a Windows 7 Professional PC.
    However, we are not succentful in exporting a multichannel mp4/H.264 clip.
    We haven't found an answer on our issue so far, so I hope that this question was not answered several times before in this forum.
    If we chosse the H.264 exporter, we cannot select a multichannel audio export (only mono, stereo, 5.1).
    In contrary, if we select the Quicktime exporter, we are able to export our sequence with a 4 channel audio master with 4 mono tracks, but we can only export it with a DVCPro Codec in a mov container.
    If we try to select a HD H.264 preset we get an error alert stating that the preset contains a not compatible video codec.
    What are we doing wrong?
    Thanks for every suggestion.
    Thanks in advance
    André

    Thanks for your thoughts, Richard.
    Your are right, we currentky use the Adobe Premiere Creative Cloud version.
    We managed it to solve at least the error message. It was caused because Quicktime was not installed together with the Adobe Premiere Pro / AME setup on our computer.
    After we installed Quicktime 7 manually, we can select a Quicktime/H.264 preset without any problems within the exporter settings.
    However, the Quicktime/H.264 export dialog seems to only allow a mono or stereo audio export. No multichannel-audio export.
    This possibility is only displayed in Richards case, if we select the Quicktime exporter and an Uncompressed Video or DV preset.
    Our question to the Adobe developer guys is the reason behind this limition? Other video authoring prograns can export a mp4 with H.264 Codec with multichannel AAC without any problems.
    How can we do this with Adobe Premiere Pro (not necessarily via Quicktime)?
