MPEG2 Playback Component, Does it work on ALL QT versions?

I'm running QT version 7.0.3 and OS 10.3.9. I just purchased the MPEG2 QT Playback Component and when I play files such as MPEG2 and VOB, it plays without audio. Does the MPEG2 PC work only with QT 6.4? Or can we make it work with 7.0.3?

I'm running QT version 7.0.3 and OS 10.3.9. I just
purchased the MPEG2 QT Playback Component and when I
play files such as MPEG2 and VOB, it plays without
audio.
That's what it does - just plays back mpeg-2 encoded video. If you want to play both video and audio from DVDs use Apple's DVD Player or try the VLC media player at http://www.videolan.org/vlc/
The playback component gives Apple apps like FCP and DVD SP the ability to playback mpeg-2 video. It also works with MPEG StreamClip at http://www.alfanet.it/squared5/mpegstreamclip.html
Does the MPEG2 PC work only with QT 6.4? Or
can we make it work with 7.0.3?
There is a Windows version and a Mac version and they are NOT interchangable.
If you have the Mac version it works with Mac QT 6 and QT 7 (although you may need to reinstall it depending on how you upgraded to OS 10.4 and QT 7).

Does the QT MPEG2 Playback Component install & work with QT X ?

I am installing a new iMac with Snow Leopard.
Does the QT MPEG2 Playback Component install & work with QT X ?
(btw, I have already done the optional install of QT7 from the SN DVD).

Does the QT MPEG2 Playback Component install & work with QT X ?
I cannot get "muxed" MPEG2 content (e.g., VOB) file to load in QT X but both QT 7 Pro (with usual audio limitations) and MPEG Streamclip still function normally under Snow Leopard. (Since I don't normally use QT X, I had to actually run a quick test to see what would happen and haven't really performed any real tests. So take my comments with a grain of salt at this time.)

Mpeg2 playback component for OS 10.3.9. or converting mod files

Hi,
I want to convert mod video files so that I can work with them on the mac. Someone suggestes using mpeg streamclip (which I have, version 1.9.2) and mpeg2 playback component (I have version 6.0.2.)
Unfortunetly, when opening the mod file streamclip asks me to update my mpeg2 playback component. Here comes the problem:
The current Apple MPEG2 PlayBack component seems to be only available for OS Tiger (10.4.9. and higher). I am using OS 10.3.9. and QT Pro 7.1. and I would very much prefer to stay with this setting.
1) Does anyone know where I could get an older version of the mpeg2 playback component?
2) Or, is there an alternative way, instead of using the mpeg2 playback with quicktime to convert the videos into something iMovie (I have iM 4) or another programm can work with?
I found this website, would that be of any help? http://www.modconverterformac.net/
3) Which other program (thirdparty) besides iMovie could I use to cut and view the videos on the mac? I have Final Cut Pro, but it is too complicated for me.
Thank you very much,
Janik

Apple QT MPEG2 Playback Component conflict w/Mavericks

I am running OX 10.9.1, Mavericks. and wnat to transfer my VOB files from DVD into iMovie for editing. Per the instructions in this discussion (https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3951 ), I installed MPEG StreamClip. I also purchased the Apple QT MPEG2 PB component - oops! - BC the Apple store says I actually don't need it if I'm running Lion or later. Per the Streamclip site (squared5.com) ,even though Apple says the QT PB tool is not needed, Streamclip still needs it. Fine, whatever. With Streamclip installed, I attempted to install the QT MPEG2 PB tool, but I got this error code: "QuickTime MPEG2 can't be installed on this disk. This software is intended for an earlier version of Mac OSX." For fun, I tried transferring my VOB files from DVD into streamclip, but that yielded another error that teh tranfer would not be complete, adn owuld be missing elements. That's true - the files I transfered to streamclip are now audi only.
So it appears that I need the Apple QT MPEG2 PB tool, but it's not available for Mavericks. Or am I missing something else? If streamclip won't work on MAvericks , is there an alternative QT MPEG2 PB component? Or, can you please show me another way to get my VOB files from DVD into iMovie?
Thank you very much, and I appreciate your time.

I found this info frm samberl in australia (in this discussion thread https://discussions.apple.com/message/17333072#17333072), and it enabled me to install the QT MPEG2 playback component. Although all the instructions are directed toward Lion users, apparently it also applies to Mavericks.
"You need to delve deeper into MPEG Streamclip, Lion and Quicktime MPEG2 playback.
From the MPEG Streaclip website.
"The installer of the MPEG-2 Playback Component may refuse to install the component in Lion. Apple states the component is unnecessary in Lion, however MPEG Streamclip still needs it.
To install the component in Lion, please download MPEG Streamclip 1.9.3b7 beta above; inside the disk image you will find the Utility MPEG2 Component Lion: use it to install the MPEG-2 Playback Component in Lion. The original installer's disk image (QuickTimeMPEG2.dmg) is required.
The current versions of MPEG Streamclip cannot take advantage of the built-in MPEG-2 functionality of Lion. For MPEG-2 files you still need to install the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component, which is not preinstalled in Lion. You don't have to install QuickTime 7."

Automatic Selected Item of List Builder Component Does not work (anymore)

Hi all,
Í'm working with Xcelsius Engage 2008 (version 5.3.2.0) and the automatic selection of an item at runtime of the list builder component does not work anymore. In a previous version it worked very well.
Here's the case: at runtime I want that the list builder component automatically puts the first item in the list to the destination section and selects it, so that a graph can show the underlying pushed data. In the previous version it worked o.k., but now at runtime the destination section remains empty at startup. If I interactively select an item from the source section to the destination section and update the list builder, the data is shown correctly, but it must done automatically, which worked o.k. in an earlier version of Xcelsius 2008...
This are my settings of the list builder component (which was running correctly earlier..):
-at the general tab I defined a range of labels
-at the general tab I defined 2 data column insertion series
-at the behaviour-common tab I defined selected items: position mode; items: the first item of the label list; insert items at runtime
-all of the data comes from an external xml data source
You can find an example of the visualisation at: http://onderzoek2.evinet.nl/projecten/10169/dynarap.htm. You will see that at start-up there is no item visible and selected in the destination section of the list builder....
I've tried every combinations of settings, build up the component from scratch, but its not working (anymore).
Greetings Erik-Jan Vriens

Hi njnits,
Print view button is a standard component of Xcelsius: look at it in the IDE
Exporting to Powerpoint is also a standard functionality, so yes. For this particular dashboard/report all data resides in an external xml-file which have to be accessible for Powerpoint
All visualisations, not only the table, in this/report fetch their data from an external xml-file, but a QaaWS-connection will also do the trick. You will have to write this dedicated service. In our case the xml-data is also generated automatically.
The external data is best defined as a sort of matrix, consisting of approx. 100 columns by 1000 rows. I agree it takes a lot of Xcelsius but it does the job....
Hopes this info helps....

MPEG2 Playback Component Installation

Have recently purchased and downloaded MPEG2 Playback Component. Still cannot read MPEG2 files.
After completing installation procedure, program stays as .dmg and does not appear as .app in Applications.
Normal ? If not - how do I get it into Applications

also purchased the mpeg-2 playback upgrade. I have a sony handycam. I can now playback video just fine but there is no audio.
Most Sony Handycams use the MPEG2/AC3 "muxed" compression format. AC3 audio is not natively compatible with QT and, even if you install an AC3 codec, is not playback supported as a multiplexed file. If you want to keep the original MPEG2 video and still want audio playback in an "muxed" file container, use the free MPEG Streamclip app to convert the MPEG2/AC3 file to an MPEG2/MP2 file. This approach is reasonably fast since it retains the original video and only re-multiplexes the AC3 audio as MPEG-1, Layer 2 audio which is playback compatible with QT with the QT MPEG-2 Playback component installed. If you want the file to be compatible with QT and mobile devices (e.g., iPod, iPhone, iPad, TV, etc.), then use MPEG Streamclip to convert the content directly to H.264/ACC content targeted for the device(s) desired. This approach takes more time since both the audio and the video data must be converted.

Mpeg 2 playback component doesn't work with OS 10.9.5

What version of mpeg 2 playback component works with 10.9.5?

Hello wishzoom,
If you are running OS X 10.9.5 Mavericks on your Mac, you should not need the MPEG2 Playback Component, as noted in the following article:
OS X: Unable to install QuickTime MPEG2 Playback Component - Apple Support

Java does not work at all upon using the update manager to update to firefox 3.6.10 for Ubuntu 9.0.4

OS: Ubuntu 9.0.4
Browser: Firefox 3.6.10
upon updating to firefox 3.6.10, java does not work at all.
websites that use java do not work at all anymore, when they worked just fine before the updating thru update manager. e.g. hulu website cannot play any of the shows.
i can give the folder of bookmarked pages i tried.
how to do that on here, i've yet to see if possible.
i can even give saved text from the terminal concerning certain attempts.
when i updated thru update manager, it gave some weird java plugin that wasn't there before "The IcedTea Web Browser Plugin IcedTea6 Java Web Browser Plugin (execution of applets on webpages)".
i uninstalled this as instructed by an answer found in one of the pages i saved, cuz it was conflicting w/another java program the updater said i needed. right now, i don't remember for sure what it was. it perhaps was realplayer flash or Java itself. w/all the hours/days of searching i put in, it's difficult if not downright impossible for me to remember all the specifics of what i tried.
i've searched throughout many webpages (including many searches on mozilla, ubuntu, java, etc) for instruction in fixing the problem.
oh, and incidentally, on the Java site, when i try the verify test of Java, firefox pops up with that yellow bar right below the slew of tabbed website windows, giving the statement "additional plugins are required to display all the media on this page. (w/link to) install missing plugins ." which is what i do, go thru the requesting plugin installation. it comes up with, guess what, the IcedTea Java Plugin. i click on the 'next' in the "Plugin Finder Service" box that pops up, & all it gives me is "No plugins were installed. IcedTea ...Plugin failed. and the link 'find out more about plugins or manually find missing plugins'". the link takes me to some of the very things/plugins that wouldn't install in the first place. the Java test failure is a LOL funny, as what plugin it is saying is required (IcedTea) is a recommended alternate program to display the very test in the first place.
i followed the given instructions on those many searched pages, in every case (barring what i may have just plain missed), but to no avail.
i've even gone to the point of trying to reinstall the previous 3.5.13 firefox version, from mozilla site. even that wouldn't install.
i've tried installing Java for my sys direct from it's site. nada.
now it's time for me to post the problem & perhaps someone will come up with some kind of "dummy" way to fix it.
until then many sites a regularly use are totally useless to me on this fast puter.
the only way i can get to use such sites, are two choices: 1. use a dinosaur laptop, which is slower than molasses & cannot handle to any streaming stuff, or 2. use an available internet access puter at the library. but useage for ea person per day is limited to only one hour a day. and one can end up waiting for an hour or more ( in the busiest periods) to even get to use one.
so, is there anyone at all, who knows any for-sure working fix for this problem?
thanks muchly :^D
p.s. i can't pay anybody any money for such help, as is required in certain sites (e.g. Java website), cuz i don't have any.
i can pay in labor tho, if there is someway to find someone who can physically be at this puter w/me, taking me step-by-step
sorry for the 20-pg essay. i hope it was all clearly understood. if, not, well, clear communication is always what is needed, ask away.

My New Tab Page does not work at all. I just have the empty squares with nothing in them at all?

My New Tab Page does not work at all. I just have the empty squares with nothing in them at all?
I know how to use about:config & have had the usual problems with newtab page tiles but this is more like a bug- using 33.0.1. Doesn't show tiles icon in top right corner just shows a gear that is used to hide the empty tiles that I can't fill with sites. First it would only show 2 rows of 4 columns even though I had it set to 5 & 6 then few days later for no reason they went empty with a serrated line around the tiles & can't drag from the bookmarks---- really bloody annoying!!!!!!! Possibly a setting in the about:config but i can't fig it out?

My iPod dispalys this message:
"Connect to a computer. Use iTunes to restore." When I connect to a computer, iTunes doesn't recognise it. The iPod 5th Gen does not work at all. How do I fix my iPod without losing any data?
I have seen the Apple webpage suggesting the "five R's" (including restore). Before doing anything, I want to be sure that restoring or any other action is not going to delete or risk my data.
I would be very grateful if anyone can suggest a fix for this problem, in a way that will not risk my data.
Thanks in advance!

Did you try a hard reset with the iPod still connected to your PC? Have you tried multiple USB ports, preferably high powered USB 2.0 ports?
To do a hard reset, first make sure the hold switch is in the Off position, then press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
Have you also worked through each and every single troubleshooting suggestion in this Apple support document?

what to do my ipod touch 4g is updated to ios6 now it has a white scren and wont turn off and to top it off the homebutton does not work at all please help me

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
-When it says place the iPod in recovery mode use this program instead of the buttons.
RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

QT7 and MPEG2 playback component - upgrade or purchase?

I upgraded to QT 7 but now I can't play back MPEG2. Is there an upgrade for the MPEG2 playback component or do I have to purchase a new copy?

If you moved up from version 6 then yes and you can get a free upgrade.
Log in at the Apple Store using the same account ID as your original purchase and click the downloadable software purchase link to see.

Solution to missing MPEG2 Playback component FOUND!

This solution is for those that have purchased Final Cut Studio HD, and then found the MPEG2 playback component mysteriously missing.
Well, from digging and digging around I found my answer. Check for the existence of /System/Library/QuickTime/QuickTimeMPEG2.component by using command + F (find function). If you find this file, and it's not properly placed in the /System/Library/QuickTime/ folder....then there is the problem. Simply copy and paste that file into the directory mentioned above..
I give credit for the idea to Apple Forums user Dave Jablinsky. Thanks a million!

Please mark this post and the other one you posted on the same subject as solved.

MPEG2 Playback Component gone

Hi Folks-
I have posted this on the Quicktime forum, but thought there might
be more help here.
I have extracted from a DVD using Mac the Ripper (legally-
it's for a client who shot the original footage himself, and
built a DVD out of it). I have then opened MPEG Streamclip
to convert to QT so it can be edited in FCP. However, somehow
I have lost MPEG2 Playback component from QT Pro 7.1.3
(did I lose this when I upgraded from 6?). Am trying to DL from Apple
website, but even as I log in, Apple keeps screwing up my address
info (says I'm in US, when I'm in Canada) and won't let me check out.
A call to Apple and I hear that possibly MPEG2 Playback component
is now not available in Canada (!#@$@#).
Anybody have any experience with this cross border availability issue? Anybody have any suggestions for another workaround?
Did I lose MPEG2 Playback Component just by upgrading to 7.1.3?
(I know other things get lost when upgrading from 6 Pro to 7 Pro, but since MPEG2 Playback Component is an add-on, it didn't occur
to me that it would be lost...
Also- further to the above, I cannot play any m2v files on my box...
Thanks,
Ted

[(I know other things get lost when upgrading from 6 Pro to 7 Pro, but since MPEG2 Playback Component is an add-on, it didn't occur
to me that it would be lost...!/b]
Pretty sure everything from a Pro Key in 6 gets wiped out when going to 7, including add ons such as the MPEG Playback
What software are you running? Final Cut Studio? Playback component is included. Can you roll back your system? (Do you have a pre-QT 7 system back up?)
You can try backtracking your QT install, such as this one -
