Playback artifacts with MOV files from GH3

I have successfully played and edited MOV files from GH3 on this computer, but I suddenly (End of August) started having rendering artifacts in preview, after rendering in the timeline monitor, and on export. I've tried several different MOV files with the same issue. I've uninstalled and reinstalled Quicktime. When I first open quicktime after an installation, it plays the source files cleanly. But after I run Premiere Pro, I can't get clean playback in either PP or QT. I've disabled the Nvidia Drivers for the GeForve GTX770 video card and still get the artifacts.
Any ideas about what might be going on?

Thank you so much for your reply.
Yes, I have CUDA installed. I see the artifacts in the source monitor as well as the timeline monitor. I have tried exporting in several formats and the artifacts appear randomly in all outputs. I can get a clean export of the same files and projects from my laptop - HP Zbook.
Quicktime Player also displays the artifacts, but when I uninstall and reinstall Quicktime the display is clear until I try to edit again in Premiere. Then the artifacts start to appear randomly in Quicktime Player as well.

Issues with .mov files from Canon 5d mk3 - since Mavericks upgrade...

Hello,
Ever since I upgraded my OS to Mavericks, Premier Pro has been refusing to 'see' .mov files in my projects. In the timeline the bits of .mov footage are appearing as red blocks, in the preview pane you get 'Awaiting media' then the red block of doom.
So currently I'm having to convert footage from .mov to mp4v - then it seems to be OK. The upgrading to Mavericks could be a coincidence ... but before that I had no issues with PP.
This is my system:
Processor 2.8 GHz Intel Core i5
OS X 10.9.1 (13B42)
Graphics ATI Radeon HD 5750 1024 MB
Memory 12 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
I would love some help/ideas on this - it's doing my head in having to convert .mov files, and having to back convert stuff in my existing projects ... please help!
Best - Abbottssnapper

Help: Working with .MOV files in FCP and forced to RENDER FOR EVERY EDIT

I'm working with .MOV files from my digital camera in Final Cut Pro and every time I make a new edit, I have to render it in order to see it in the canvas.
How do I make it so that I don't have to render every edit in order to see it?
(I've worked with files straight from a DV camera, and editing went fine. I'm assuming it has to do with the .MOV files)

DV Cameras are not the same thing as a Digital camera. Digital cameras offer video on a limited basis and it's usually highly compressed in a non-editing format such as MPEG-2 or similar. NLEs are made to work with video cameras, not still cameras which is why you're having trouble.
That's not to say you can't edit video captured with a digital camera, but you need to know how to prep it for editing. Some digital cameras shoot at odd frame rates and they all use some form of compression that is not typically used in editing. This means that you'll likely need to convert your clips to an editable format first using Compressor.

Premiere Pro CS6 issues with .MOV files

I am having problems with .MOV files from my Nikon 5100.
They play very choppy. Multicam REALLY has issues with the .MOV files as it will play ten frames and freeze. Usually crashing Premiere altogether.
Anyone know how to optimize my system to play these .MOV files so the can be worked with? I've updated my videocard firmware and Quicktime.

Anyone know how to optimize my system to play these .MOV files so the can be worked with?
The logical steps would probably be:
Get a better PC
Don't use QuiRcktime but rename the .MOV file to .MPG
Tune your system. Also for Win7: Adobe Forums: Guide for installing and tuning a Vista...

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.

Black frames on playback and render with .MOV exported from Avid

Hi there,
some of our customers experience troubles while importing quicktime .mov files from last Avid Media Composer versions (latest 6.0.x, 6.5.x and 7.0.x versions).
Using any Avid codecs for export, when clips are played in AE, black frames appear on video, these are also present on renders and exported files.
Playing the same clips in other softwares and media players, the video is clear.
As we discussed with Avid support, Avid made changes in his software and codecs and it sounds like AE doesn't correctly interpret it.
Have you already heard of (or experienced) such troubles?
Best regards,
Sebastien GEFFROY,
CTM Solutions.

I'm having the same problem, but can't get a clean render out using a different codec.
I was trying to render all my After Effects compositions out as Quicktime with DNxHD 120 selected. This would give me random full frames of solid red. Every single render.
So, I tried selecting Quicktime NONE and most of the renders would just abort with the bleating lamb noise.
So, I tried AVI uncompressed. Every single composition rendered out, but every single rendered clip had exactly the same glitch - A solid black line that spans the bottom of the frame and increases in size every frame until it fills the screen. Then the picture returns and a couple of seconds later a full frame black flash. Same pattern and same duration - every clip.
So, if DNxHD codec has a problem and Quicktime has a problem and AVI has a problem I'd say it's safe to say that it's probably not a recording codec issue. How can three different codecs present a problem?
I've checked my source files. It doesn't matter what drive I place them one, either an internal solid state drive, or USB3 spinning disk in a caddy or network path to a NAS raid, or system drive, they give the same problems.
It doesn't matter what the source files are either - Tiff sequences from 3DS Max, JPG timelapse sequences from Nikon camera, video camera files, Quicktimes, AVIs, you name it - Broken renders.
So, I'd say that having tested my input files and tried many render codecs that the problem lies in between - Either the Computer or After Effects itself.
Now, up until Creative Cloud I was using my trusty old CS2. That worked fine.
If you read the internet it's full of people having rendering problems when using CS6 and CC.
Now, in my understanding, the main difference between me using CS2 and CC is the Adobe software - GPU renderer.
I am using the exact same workflow on the exact same equipment:-
HP Z1 Xeon E31280 @ 3.50GHz
Windows 7 64 bit professional
8GB DDR3 RAM.
Nividia Quadro 3000M.
I'm close to giving up. I'm going for a full system re-install, the gound up this bank holiday onto a brand new empty system drive.
I'll follow it with trying out various Nvidia drivers.
Can anyone point me to a definitive answer? I have trawled many different forums, with people all having the same issues and no one has an answer.

.MOV files from iphone - audio but no video in QuickTime

iphone 3gs, latest DirectX and Quicktime. Downloaded .mov files from iphone don't play correctly in QuickTime. The audio is there but there is no video, just a black screen.
I tried switching the video to "safe mode". This does show the video, but its terribly choppy and unwatchable.
I believe something changed recently with an update to itunes or QuickTime. Any ideas?
Thanks.

How do I get this file to play?
By installing the proper video codec component if available as advised by application. See the video "Format:" entry in finder "Info", QT "Inspector", or "Property" window. Basically you must have the same playback decoder installed on your second machine as was used to encode the video the first. Sounds as if the component configurations on the two machines are not the same.

I cannot open a .mov file from MAC on a PC

I have a Mac Dual G5 with Mac Os X 10.4.8 and I was making a short HDV movie(only 4Giga) in FCExpress.
I export the movie in H264 1920 X1080 in the QT Conversion window and save them in a .mov file (with blue QT label).
After saving I can open and view the movie with the Mac, no problem.
I make a copy on a DVD for mine friend.
I will open the movie on his PC but it don't work.
He had a Pentium Dual 840 3.2 Ghz Window XP Pro service pack 1 and 2, 2wDirectx9 2 giga Ram 256 nVidia Ge Force 6800
On the PC we install also Quick Time Pro 7.1 for Windows with register number.
When we activate the .mov file on the PC(.mov file from the Mac) we see the Quick Time window in black or white without image.
We try many times but we cannot find a solution..
To day we buy by the Apple Store QT MPEG 2-Playback Component for PC.
After installation we have every time the same problem, no image in the QT windown.
What can I do?
Thanks for assistance

Dear Sir
I find a solution for the problem.
What you say is correct, it is a codex problem.
I download a other program Cineform Aspect HD.199 U$.
Now I can open easy everyone .mov file on the PC(.mov files from the MAC).
Mine conclusion: QuickTime Pro for Windows don’t support H264 codex,
and don’t support any .mov file from the MAC !
Apple make big publicity on their website for QT Pro 7 for Windowns.
They say “QT Pro 7 for Windows support H264 codex”.
I try many days with Apple Support team, they don’t find a solution.
Good evening and thank you for assistance,

Unable to import movie files from iphoto '08 into imovie HD

I have recently bought a 2008 macbook (2.2 GHz) and have recently downloaded imovie HD in addition to owning iLife '08 due to its extra capabilities. I have found that I am unable to import any of my movie files from my iphoto library folder as it seems to need to open the actual iphoto application before the files can be accessed. In addition, when not using any specific program it would be nice to be able to access my photo/video files within the iphoto folder without iphoto automatically opening as the default viewer.
Any ideas??!! Thanks.

.. and I import AVI video clips directly without converting to .dv, without problems.
lucky you.. .avi is just a container, no 'format'/codec .. I can show you dozends of .avis, which will NOT import into iMHD6, due to being playback-codecs, not convertable by the underlying Quicktime engine into separte, editable audio+video streams ..
.. If you convert to .dv, the size just blows up.
dv is 13GB/h and a codec meant for editing; e.g. it stores every frame (video=30 frams/sec) of a recording, as mpegs usually doesn't do so.. = your Mac has to estimate content, when converting and 'recovering' the content = lossy process.
iMHD6 is a dv-editor; the mpeg4 feature is only a toy, to spice up iSight recordings.. for sure, the QTengine can convert a lot, but too much conversion (from one lossy codec, e.g. divx, into another, e.g. mp4) means a (dramatic) loss of pic quality..
my 5€ cents ..

What OS are you running.. this is usually only a problem in Mavericks.
If so I recommend you mount the hard disk manually..
Use Go, Connect to server.
Type in the IP address if static.. eg
AFP://10.0.1.1
Or the name.. but you will have issues unless the name is short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.. if you are using bad names.. fix it by a full factory reset in airport utility and give it all names that comply to the above.
Type in
AFP://TCname.local Where TCname is replaced with the actual name.
You will be asked for the password the first time which is public unless you changed it.. please remember to save this in the keychain.
Copy files then to a new directory you create on the TC.. do not place files inside the TM sparsebundle. Nor directly under the main directory.

Is there a way to move files from one folder to another without copying and pasting and then going back to delete the original?

Is there a way to move files from one folder to another without copying and pasting and then going back to delete the original? The cut and paste function is not available and there's no "move to" function. Am I missing something? It was so easy with Windows.

Drag the files, or press Option when pasting them; this accesses the Move To function.

I think it does that for QuickTime if you don't define the lineStride value in the VideoFormat (lineStride = pixelStride * width).

I can no longer play quicktime mov files from a canon firestore

I can no longer play quicktime mov files from a canon firestore from an HDV camera that play on other macs and play in vlc. It happened all of a sudden. Files that I could play before no longer play. It seems to be something wrong with the quicktime codec management because the files do not play in premiere and final cut pro. In FCP it says: File Error: 1 File(s) recognized, 0 access denied, 1 unknown. These files work on other computers. I have four drives and it doesnt matter which file i attempt to open on each drive, these files are unreadable on this system. Please help. Possible issues might be a corrupted index, but i dont understand how that can go across four different drives.

Apple kindly updated Quicktime and rendered Firestore files unplayable. I think a recent update of iTunes was the culprit.
Solutions: What I did. Wipe the system disc. Re-install Snow Leopard. Re-install FCP7. Don't update Quicktime or iTunes to anything after Jun 2011. QT v7.6.6 is the last good version. That'll get your files back.
A colleague tried a different approach. For this you need a pre-July 2011 version of the file QuickTimeComponents.component. It is in the system/library/QuickTime folder. Delete your current one and drop in an old one.
However if you're working with Final Cut X, I think you screwed until Focus and Apple work something out. My address is on my contacts page at teevideousadotcom if you need any further help.

Using Migration Assistant to move files from old PC laptop to new MacBook Pro that has Windows 8 installed containing Outlook

When using Migration Assistant to move files from old PC laptop to new MacBook Pro, that has Windows 8 installed containing Outlook, will emails, contacts and calendar entries be moved to Outlook on the new MacBook or into Mail, Contacts and Calendar?

I doubt they will. But then I'm not sure as I used a migration program once about 18 years ago and totally FUBARed the system I had at that time and I've never used one again.
For me the reason to have a new system is to start fresh. Installing only program that I now use and manually copying data over from the older system.
Not sure your older version of Outlook, and the outlook mail boxes, are compatible with Office/Outlook for Mac 2011.
A better place to ask this question would be on the MS Office for Mac forums.
Hope it all works out for you.

IPhoto reads wrong date of .mov file from iPhone 3GS...help!

Hi all
Need some help/advice please.
I have a bunch of files I am importing in to iPhoto that were initially downloaded to a windows laptop. I used Graphic Converter (GC) to successfully rotate and align the creation/modified dates so iPhoto reads the correct date. Now GC edits the .jpg and .avi file metadata fine, but wont edit .mov files from my iPhone? So now the iPhone videos are strewn all over the place in iPhoto compared to where they should be date-wise. Any ideas on how to fix this issue?
The .mov files in GC show the correct creation date, but iPhoto reads the actuals file's modified date instead of the internal creation date? So strange?
Thanks
Jared

iPhoto gets it's date and time from the Photos Exif metadata, not the file creation or modification dates. It will only use those if your photos have no Exif.
If you subsequently export these files then the created and modification dates a re very likely to change.
You can adjust the date and time rather more easily in iPhoto (Using either the Photos -> Adjust Date and Time and/or the Photos -> Batch Change commands) You can also write the corrected date and time to the Exif of the oriignals files, and export it along with the file in the future.
I'm not sure what's up with the dates on these mov files, but Movies don't have an Exif. You might want to check with the makers of Graphic Coverter for help.
You know that you can move pics and movies around inside iPhoto, right? Drag them from Event to Event?
