Need codec pack for h.264 to play .mp4

I bought a motor sports camera that records HD format that doesn't seem to work with any media player I have!
I quote from their website under the trouble shooting section:
"+If using Windows Media Player or Movie Maker, make sure you download the latest HD-capable version and also download a H.264 decoder to update media or movie maker. CoreCodec CoreAVC is one company that offers a codec pack for h.264.+
+VLC media player is another video media player program that you can download for free, which supports .mp4 h.264 files+"
I don't use PC, I am using my MacBook Pro and I have iTunes, iMovie, VLC, QuickTime Pro, DivX and Real Player but none can run the recorded movies.
Any help would be appreciated. And thanks in advance to all.

Thanks to nobody as I see nobody jumped in... but it turned out to be a problem with the camera itself. Shipped it back and got it replaced. And the problem disappeared.

Codec pack for QuickTime like Windows?

Hello,
I'm wondering why there is no any codec pack for QuickTime in Mountain Lion like windows? or why Apple just can't support .mkv files?
QuickTime really has a great quality than other players and I hope Apple or some developer make something good like windows Codec pack.. they have got always codec pack for windows but for mac never or so hard to find.
I hope apple consider this..!!!
Developer please make something like that and sure all will buy it from appstore you guys would be rich.. come on.. if it would cost 1$ you would be rich but you can make it more like 5 to 10 or more $
Best regards,
Alex

Apple's position is that H.264 is a modern highly efficient codec that is suitable for all uses (which is true enough). However a lot of files already exist in other formats. Sometimes it seems some people wilfully choose the most esoteric codec possible just to make life difficult.
The nearest you can get to a codec pack on the Mac is Perian. This adds support to QuickTime for many formats including MKV files.
You can get Perian here http://perian.org/
It might also be worth installing Flip4Mac which adds support for playing WMV files, you can get it here http://www.telestream.net/flip4mac/overview.htm

HT3775 i need codec format to support audio to play movies?

i need codec format to support audio to play movies

Just download the free, open-source media player VLC. It plays pretty much anything.Get VLC here:

Also, beware of dodgy internet sites that say you can't play a movie and offer to install a 'codec' for you. They're typically malware or spyware.

What's a good codec pack for Mac?

My friend recommended K-Lite Codec Pack, but it only works on PC and I have a Mac. Is there a good codec pack for Mac?

I keep running into video files that I have to figure out how to convert to something After Effects can work with. Such as .3gp from an Android phone.
That's not a "codec pack" issue, you just need a good all purpose conversion tool or two. Apple Compressor works well as do all of the other products mentioned here. Another good tool is a cheap PC with free Microsoft Encoder (or whatever they're calling it these days). You can pull in all kinds of aggressively non-Mac friendly files and output to any of several lowest common denominators.
Bringing in weird and highly compressed consumer movie files isn't as simple as converting to an editing codec (which raises the question, why are you bringing these clips into AE and not Premiere?) you also need to figure out how to do frame rate conversions, scale adjustments, and color space tweaks.

Avi codec pack for mac??

Hi,
We have recently switched over a few mac machines and are slowly getting the hang of them. After having issues playing back avi's on the machine i have downloaded the Perian codec pack for mac which allows me to play the files in quicktime etc and get audio output. I still have the problem however that when imported into Premiere/Encore etc i get video but no audio??? I dont want to have to convert all the files into compatible mac files as i just want a codec to install which will play them and solve the problem. The files are DivX codec built.
I find it odd that files will play with audio in quicktime on the machine but not in the adobe software. Tried reading around this on the web but have turned up nothing after Perian that helps. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ian

Thanks Hunt,
You seem to reply to most of these posts, so thank you very much for giving up your time to help others, much appreciated.
I have both converted the files - in a rather drawn out way through a couple of freeware programs to give me an mp3 audio file macs don't seem to mind - and and burnt DVD's on mac and PC to check for quality on both machines.
We have to work with DivX a bit for clients to create conference openers etc and if they specify footage from the web etc its generally the only format we can get it in on short notice. Horrible but the way of the world it seems.
Currently running mac book pro's for on site edit machines on the highest specs available for purchase i.e. i7 processor 7200rpm internal hard drive etc and Adobe CS5 and have to say that the 'macs never fall over' hype isn't true. Apart from having their file preferences for use which is a pain when crossing projects over from both platforms i have found both new macs crash when worked hard using premiere, after effects and photoshop/illustrator. We find CS5 has far fewer bugs and is more stable than CS4 mind you.
I'm sure that may queue mac lovers to put me straight on the much fabled shiny machines however.
Cheers, Ian

No management pack for MPSeal. Management packs are sealed by using the MPSeal tool that is located in the SupportTools folder of the Operations Manager 2007 R2 distribution media. This is a command-line tool that creates a sealed .mp file from an unsealed
.xml file. After performing the sealing process, you can install the sealed management pack in your management group.

Windows codec pack for 7D Mark ii CR2's

Hi,
For all my previous Canon camera's the Microsoft Camera Codec Pack (6.3.9721.0) was sufficient to view the CR2 files in picture viewer & explorer, a feature I enjoy very much to quickly delete blurry pictures or pictures with a bad frame.
CR2's from my new Canon 7D Mark ii don't seem supported by this codec pack yet. Any other ways to view CR2's in explorer/picture viewer?
Kind regards,
Arne

It's normally that when a brand new camera hits the market there can be a bit of a delay before 3rd party vendors support that new camera's RAW files.
I see that Adobe has support for it as does Apple. I see somewhat recent updates from them (December) that now include support for the 7D II.
But as I check the Microsoft website, I am unable find a Camera Codec pack released after 4/2014 -- which is prior to the release of the 7D II camera. That would imply that many owners of recently released camera models are in the same boat with you. You're waiting on Microsoft to release an update to have native support in Windows.
It used to be at least a 3-6 month wait for RAW support from anyone other than Canon (after release of a new model). But I've noticed in recent years that Adobe and Apple are now MUCH faster about getting the RAW support out to the public.
The work-arounds are to (a) use Adobe to convert your RAW images or (b) use the Canon utilites to convert your RAW images. Adobe would let you convert them to .DNG (Adobe's universal "digital negative" format -- their version of RAW). Using the Canon EOS Utility you can convert them to TIFF, which is 16bit and lossless (so you keep all the adjustment latitude you wanted out of a RAW image.)

Codec pack for Mac?

Hello,
My mom just got a brand new Imac. She lives about 300 miles from me, so my help to her is limited. I was there when she ordered it and to help her set it up. But now I'm home again.
I downloaded and installed codecs from Apple's Quicktime site. That fixed a few things.
I've been exposed to PCs for quite some time and have found it much easier to dload a codec pack that includes everything a typical user would ever require for playback of video in Media Player. I haven't seen anything like that for Mac. Do they exist? Where could I find them?
Thank you

Microsoft Camera Codec Pack for Windows 10?

Is there a version of Microsoft Camera Codec Pack that works in Windows 10 technical preview? I'm having problems installing the latest for Windows 8.1, more accurately it won't install whatever I do, regardless of compatibility mode.

I may have expressed myself badly. I did not had problems with this in Windows 8 and 8.1.
I am only having problems installing the Microsoft Camera Codec Pack in Windows 10 (to be more specific, Enterprise Edition, build 9926).
My best guess is the changed system numbering is behind the problem, which you pointed out right.

Codec pack for 5800 xpress music

how do we play films of divx format and others from our phone to the tv.. please help

for the above problem,
nokia 5800 doesnt support divx file format, as there is no application that can play these for the nokia 5800. you have to convert your video files to mp4 in order to play them on your phone, and then connect it (using cable out wire) to your tv to play it there.
the tv-out cable came with my phone in the box, it should look similar to this one below:
try downloading this free video converting tool. i use it all the time with all my vids, very sweet and easy.
click here to direct downlaod
after you add your video, choose: video presents> ipod> ipod (640x480) MPEG high quality, and then convert
should work after this because it works on my 5800

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.

K-lite mega codec pack/quicktime codecs to play other files

I want to be able to use quicktime for all video files on my new ibook 14'' so i tried downloading the k-lite maga codec pack but i think its only for windows because every site i tried to download it from opened it in a .exe file. basically i was wondering if there was a site to find a version of k-lite to download that works with os x tiger or if there was another codec download that would enable me to play other media files on quicktime (wmv,mpeg-4). i already downloaded the divx codecs to play .avi files but i really want to be able to play those other files

Flip4Mac can play wmv file in Quicktime. It doesn't handle Real Media though.

I cant play some avi movies i need codec

i cant playe my avi movie because i need codec for my quick timer what codec do i need or maybe ther are missing

Quicktime 7 can play AVIs, but Quicktime X cannot. You could download Quicktime 7, get VLC, or convert your AVI to a Quicktime-supported format like m4a using http://www.macroplant.com/adapter/

Hi all ,anyone knows some usefual Codecs for H.264 live video/audio

I'm headache about the JMF codecs ,they are too few ,and seems inefficiency, anyone knows pure java codecs for H.264 or MPEG4 ?And I think it's better a open source one ,do my thanks , guys!

Here are some basics....
FMLE creates RTMP protocol streams that PCs and Macs watch with Flash players. iOS devices don't understand RTMP (Flash), only HLS delivery of 10 second chuncks of downloaded video playback. Both systems understand H.264 video, but iOS wants to see AAC audio not MP3.
You didn't state how you are live streaming, meaning what bandwidth delivery service you are using. Live streaming only via RTMP won't get you to successful iPad and iPhone HTTP Live Stream. On-demand delivery to iOS devices normally requires .mp4 video files to be hosted, which Macs and PCs also understand via RTMP delivery. But unless your delivery service can convert .f4v or .flv files to .mp4 on the fly there is no easy way to to get to iOS via the direct file output of FMLE as of today. Sometimes we upload live encoded project files to our www.Wistia.com account for PC, Mac and iOS delivery. This is a YouTube / Vimeo paid type hosting service for on-demand only.
Some commercial CDNs (Content Delivery Networks) today allow an inbound live RTMP into their system using FMLE. Then they re-mux that RTMP stream into HLS delivery for iOS. Some work well using the native MP3 audio codec (Internap), but most require FMLE to have the AAC audio codec installed from Main Concept for $200. Or people use Wirecast from Telestream which is $500 per license to be able to run two instances on that one license.
In my 15 years of being a big commercial webcaster here in Silcion Valley, I have yet to find the perfect simple and easy and affordable RTMP to HLS live and on-demand delivery system. We currently do it different ways with multiple providers depending on the job. More offerings are coming out now and we try them all as they come down the pike.
