No video in Viewer/Canvas, only audio

I use Final Cut Pro X since Day One and I survived bugs and endless beachballs on my 2011 17' Macbook Pro.
A week ago FCPX stopped playing any video in viewer/canvas while scrubbing. Only audio is audible. Impossible previewing a single clip or playing the timeline. The beachball is immediate and the program hangs and need forced exit. This happens whatever the video source is: only audio plays. Same reinstalling from scratch 10.0.4. Trashing preferences and using quickfix from Digitalrebellion didin't help.
A momentary solution has been creating a new administrator user and working from there, with many limitation and commodities I have "on the other side".
I can't identify anything particular that might have caused this! Quicktime runs fine and so do Final Cut Pro 7, iMovie and all the video compartement.
I searchead the web but nobody seems to have follen in this situation.

Have the same problem. Did you ever find answer?

YouCam video won't play - only audio. Used link from apps page. Can see screen capture.

Hi there,
We recorded a 1 minute video using Cyberlink Youcam (the one on the 8.1 apps page, as opposed to the one with shortcut on the main desktop page - Youcam5.) We can see te screenshot of the video, and hear the audio for entire duration of recording, but the video screen is only green. Help please!

I understand that when you tried to playback your recording from YouCam 5, you can hear the audio, but the screen remains green.
Have you done all your Windows updates?
Is you Direct X, Adobe flash player and or Direcrt X up to date?

Video is not importing, only audio

I am trying to import a video to do a couple really quick edits (I just need to trim a few seconds off each end and would like to use a fade in/out transition at the beginning and end), but when I import the video, it doesn't work. I can hear the audio playing, but I only see a static frame shot for the video. Nothing ever changes/moves.
First I imported it as a .mov file, but then I read somewhere that .mov doesn't play nice with iMovie. So I converted it to an mp4 movie file. I can watch both (undedited) versions in Quicktime without any issues, so I don't believe there is anything wrong with the original file or the conversion.
Any ideas of what I am doing wrong?

One thing I forgot to mention: The original video was shot on my Nikon D7000 in HD and was imported into Lightroom for a couple quick color corrections. Then it was exported from Lightroom. The exported/edited video plays perfectly in Quicktime. So there is some sort of breakdown between in iMovie's capability to import the video.

Source window video won't play, only audio - can someone help?

First time on this forum. Using Pr CS4. After capturing DV clip and opening in the source window - if I click on the play button in the source window the video makes a movement like it is going to play but then freezes. The audio from the clip still plays. I can scrub the clip in the souce window just fine. Could it be that I don't have some of the playback settings selected correctly. I should note that I have already put the clip on the timeline.
Thanks,
Gary

Quarter rez is like built-in proxy editing, and works well here. Just follow the workflow guide for the latest version of the RED plug-in.
The new workflow guide says this:
Please note that the presets have been updated. For the new fractional resolution feature to be enabled, you must be using a preset from this release. Pre-existing timelines will need to be copy/pasted into a newly created sequence for the new decode options to become available.
Does that apply to you?
The latest version of the plug-in also has a "new" Source Settings dialog. Format/resolution are now done on-the-fly from the Program Monitor display settings. I include that info only on the off chance that you haven't noticed it yet.

Just tried to video chat and got only audio

Hi! I am using iChat version 4.0.2 and was unable to video chat with my sister today. We could hear each other, but not see each other. On both ends, the only video we saw was from our own cameras. I tried changing the quicktime streaming to 1.5 and bandwith limit in iChat to none and restarting still to no avail. I use ATT DSL in LA with and airport extreme and my sister uses Time Warner cable in NC (not sure what equipment and she is a PC user)

Hi
Has the PC end set up as per these instructions?

Also, if she has a bandwidth limit setting, as she is Time Warner, maybe she should try 500kbps.

DVDSP Help - Video not playing in Viewer during some assets, only audio...

Video not playing in Viewer during some assets, only audio until paused. once you hit the space bar or pause, the video shows up in viewer? same results when burnd to disc.
when dragging cursor through out timeline (track 1) video shows up in viewer fine too.
any advice on what could be wrong?

Hi Crazy Dan:
It's a kind of bug in DVDSP Simulator. If you build your project in your hard drive and test it with DVD Player all video will play fine.
I would like to tell you where exactly the problem is located, but it's just a Simulator problem.
Try building your project.
Hope that helps !

No video playing in canvas or on monitor but audio is fine

I was setting chapters markers on the timeline for DVD export and somehow hit the wrong key so when I play the video on the timeline, the audio is fine and is heard on my monitor but the video doesn't appear in the canvas (black only showing) and shows only the first frame of the particular clip on my monitor. I checked video external settings and it is set to 'all frames'.
Any ideas how I screwed this up. It's in the settings as I went back to an autosaved version from 5 minutes previous and the same problem.
thanks for any assistance.

The key, btw, is w.

Hi, I have problem with importing MOV files from SJCAM 4000. MOV files are in supported formats for Adobe Premiere Elements 11. But if I'm importing MOV file, only audio part is imported, video part is not imported. How can I solve this problem?

Hi, I have problem with importing MOV files from SJCAM 4000. MOV files are in supported formats for Adobe Premiere Elements 11. But if I'm importing MOV file, only audio part is imported, video part is not imported. How can I solve this problem?

haben
From looking at the specifications of your camera (SJCam 4000), we know already what video compression your camera is using. It is H.264.
A H.264.mov file should be supported by Premiere Elements 11. On what computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 11 running?
Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer? And, are you running QuickTime and Premiere Elements 11 from a
User Account with administrative privileges? Please go to Premiere Elements 11 Publish+Share/Computer/QuickTime to confirm that you find
presets there for the QuickTime choice there.
What are the properties of these H.264.mov files - is it 1080p30 (1920 x 1080p30) or something else? Do you know if this camera is recording with a variable or
a constant frame rate?
Please review and consider and then we will decide what next.
Thank you.

Lenovo B520 sends only audio, not video to tv

Hello. I want to play what's on my B520 on my TV. However, only audio is sent out but no video and whatever desktop image (desktop background image, not programs or anything else). I can hear the audio from my computer on the TV. I can also see whatever image I have set as my desktop image (behind all the icons). But I can't even see my desktop icons and if I'm playing some video or something my TV plays the sound portion but just shows my desktop background image with no video being sent other than that. Can somebody please tell me what I'm doing wrong? I have a JVC TV but it's showing the desktop image so something is being sent from B520 so I don't think the problem is with the TV. Please help.
Solved!

it sound like you have extended your desktop not cloned it press and hold windows key then tap P to cycle through the options, duplicate or second screen is the option you are after

Can't see video on dvd only audio

I do not get video when I play my dvd only audio. I played this exact dvd yesterday and it was fine. I also played it on my t.v. and it played fine. Any ideas?

Hi
Brand of DVD used - matters
Type of DVD - also matters - DVD-R or DVD+R or DVD+/-RW ?
BURN SPEED - Matters GREATLY - Best IS NOT BEST - I never go faster than x4 - most often use x2
So please tell - What You used - as this matters to a great extent.

Imported a video file and there is only audio.

Imported a video file and there is only audio. It was originally captured from VHS onto a PC. It took over 24 hrs to import the 4.24 GB mpg.
Is there something I need to do since it was a mpg from a PC?

I use Steve's method all of the time, and edit the Audio output in Adobe Audition. You will want to Export/Share to PCM/WAV @ 48KHz 16-bit, and keep that format both going and coming back into PrE. Remember that you will be working with an Audio file, that is the full (or almost) Duration of the Timeline. When you Import that edited Audio file, give the program a few moments to Conform that newly Imported PCM/WAV for editing. I suggest not touching the computer, until Conforming has completed 100%, and the little progress bar in the lower-right of the GUI has disappeared. If the Imported Audio file is short, and your computer is fast, you might not even see that progress bar, but the Conforming has taken place, just the same.
I like to keep the original Audio on its Audio Track(s), and just use Window>Audio Mixer to Mute that/those Track(s), leaving only my edited Audio on its own Track un-Muted. This is a "fail-safe," just in case I change my mind along the way, and wish to revert to the original Audio for some reason. It is much easier to Mute-Unmute, than to gather up all of that original Audio again.
Good luck, and happy editing,
Hunt

QuickTime stand alone not playing video, only audio

Am running QuickTime stand alone on my PC with Windows XP Home 2002. For some reason the .mov files that were created with my digital camera will not play video (only audio) on this computer. The files seem to play fine on other computers. Have also found out that I can play downloand or streamed videos (only audio).
Can't figure out why video won't play. Other video formats (.avi for example) play fine through Windows Player.
Any insight? . . . anyone?
