Premiere Elements 9 - importing MPEG files hear sound but no picture

Have just bought a new Dell XPS8300 i5-2320 3.3Ghz 12MB RAM 1.5TB computer and have Premiere Elements 9. Am trying to put video from my Olympus VR-310 camera into Premiere Elements. Have downloaded the MJPEG Codec. When I bring the video clips in, I can hear the sound but get no picture. It is either a blank black or blank turquoise screen. I've looked at suggestions on forums and have downloaded the latest Nvidia GeForce GT545 driver for the computer and have checked everything using GSpot. The video plays fine in Windows Mediaplayer, Quicktime and VideoLAN. Am now running out of things to try. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Unless the Oly version of the MJPEG CODEC is not compatible with PrE (that can happen, and not just with the MJPEG CODEC), you should not need to convert the footage to WMV. Still, that will depend on exact tweaking of the MJPEG CODEC by Oly.
As for VLC Player (and MediaPlayer Classic HC, and probably for others, like GOM Player, as well), those players contain their own set of CODEC's, though mostly for playback.
As mentioned in that CODEC article, linked above, there are basically 3 uses for a CODEC:
Used for playback - the vast majority of Video CODEC's
Used for encoding - still, a large sub-set of the Video CODEC's
Used for editing - a much smaller sub-set of the Video CODEC's, and usually limited by the exact NLE program
With the Oly MJPEG CODEC properly installed, I would test editing the footage natively, as I would anticipate that should work, with no WMV conversion, with produces heavily-compressed files, that require a lot of processing power to edit.
Good luck,
Hunt

i can hear sound but no picture for airplay from ipad

I am having an issue with airplay as well. I am trying to play Spartacus from Showtime website on my iPad. It has the Airplay icon available. I click on it and only the audio is playing on my TV....no video. Any suggestions?

I can hear sound, but no pictures, on some news internet locations.

Greetings to all, I have a Windows 7 64--bit laptop. I can hear sound but no pictures. Why is that ? Thank you. Ldxrunner.

Greeting Hiro, I can hear sound at http://news.yahoo.com/video/ecuador-volcano-erupts-045906534.html. At first, I see a black square, then I see bluish circle, followed by musical notes.Then the screen stays black. I see a black square and then after the video ends, I see in the upper left corner of the black square, a replay icon. I have VLC version 2.0.3.

Premiere Elements 9: .AVI file - no sound

I am using Premiere Elements 9, video files imported using the import function in Adobe Organizer from an Insignia NS-DV1080P digital video camera. File format is .AVI.
The videos play fine from the organizer and other video players, however when I edit the files with Premiere Elements 9 the audio is all but lost. There is an audio track in Premiere but the sound is so quiet as to be nearly gone. Increasing the audio using the volume controls makes no difference. Video is also very jumpy.
I have used different presets, but have not found any difference between the various settings.
System info:
Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit
AMD 2.60 Ghz Processor
6GB RAM
Has anyone come across this problem, or do you have any idea how to fix it?

Welcome to the forum.
AVI is but a wrapper, and can contain a lot of different "stuff," both Audio and Video. This ARTICLE will give you some background, and some tips on finding out what is inside the AVI files.
Some cameras also record a mono signal, and this can often lead to very low dB levels in PrE/PrPro. Often, just doing either a Fill Right, or Fill Left will get the levels up to adequate. In some cases, one would need to duplicate the mono file and align it with the original. I would Pan one Left and one Right. The mix-down will be 2-channel anyway.
Also, you can increase the Gain of the Clips, by Rt-clicking and choosing Audio Gain. Just Click-drag on the 0.0 to increase.
There are other possibilities, but where you seem to be observing this in your workflow, I feel that they are unlikely candidates. We can address them, should the above not help out.
Good luck,

Adobe Media Encoder CS4 converted FLV files have sound but no picture

Hi,
It would be great if anyone can help - I am using the latest trial version of Flash CS4. I have used the Media Encoder to convert mpg4 files to FLV however the resultant files play with sound but no picture - just a black screen. Is there a solution to this issue?

mostly this problem is caused by lacking of
some nessery codec. Which means when reencoding your video to flv, it can not generate the video.
Does Riva FLV encoder needs any extra codec? I am using Moyea Flash Video MX 6. It do not need any extra code. It needs in the former versions but in version 6 it can convert nearly any video format now.

Stor.e TV + - playing .mkv files have sound but no picture

I've just transferred all of my .mkv files onto my store TV + but most of them have sound but no picture?They play fine on my PC...
Also,anyway of changing the icon on the folder to the actual dvd cover on the store TV +?Sick of looking at yellow folders!!
Thanks..

Hi
Found the StorE TV+ specifications on this Toshiba page:
http://www.toshiba-multimedia.com/eu/store-external-hard-drives/tv-plus/
The Store TV+ supports the video formats:: MPEG1 (DAT, MPG), MPEG2 (VOB, MPG, TS/M2TS/TP TRP), MPEG4 (AVI, MP4, MKV), VC-1 (WMV), H.264 (AVI, MKV,MOV, MP4), RM/RMVB (RM/RMVB)
The MKV files are supported by MPEG4 and H.264 video format.
Are the files recorded in this formats?
How about playing other files i.e MPG or AVI?
Furthermore I would recommend checking the connection to the TV.
Here is a user manual which I found on the Toshiba page:
http://www.toshiba-multimedia.com/Global/Manuals/Store/Manuals/STORE_TVplus_User_Manual.pdf
It shows you how to connect the Store TV+ correctly.

My Mov. files play sound but no picture on Quicktime Player

Please help - I don't know much about computers - called the apple support line and they weren't very helpful.
I'm a Mac OS X Version 10.5.8
What do I need to do to play my mov. files? They play on my friends mac but not mine. They were originally edited in final cut pro and saved as mov.
Help please?

I am having the same issue. My .MOV files wouldn't even open, so I converted the files to the Apple Intermediate Codec using MPEG Streamclip as per the Apple Support Tech's instruction. The file will play now, but with no video. What else do I have to do?

VideoDisplay playing flv with sound but no picture...

Hi Everyone,
I'm hoping someone can help with an annoying problem that
isn't making much sense to me.... I have an mxml component that is
based on an HBox, which houses a single Video Display control. In
the main application file I add this component which houses the
Video Display control to a canvas using addChild. What I then do is
I play different flv files by containing each flv file name in an
array, and then bind the next flv name to the source of the Video
Display control in order to play the correct video... so in other
words...

<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
[Bindable] private var _arrFLVs:Array = new Array("vid1.flv",
"vid2.flv", "vid3.flv");
[Bindable] private var _currentFLV:String;
[Bindable] private var _i:int;
public function init():void
_currentFLV = _arrFLVs[_i];
]]>
</mx:Script>
<mx:VideoDisplay width="398" height="282"
id="videoDisplay" autoPlay="true" source="flvs/{_currentFLV}" />

I have other functions which increment the _i variable. So
basically what happens is when the video has finished playing, an
event handler executes which is listening for the end of the video,
the event handler then executes another function which removes the
component with the video player from the canvas and adds a
different component to display a series of images, once the images
has finished cycling through what it needs to cycle through I
remove that image component and add the video component back onto
the canvas to display the next flv. This process repeats itself
once all videos has been shown and then starts over again. The
problem I'm experiencing is that every now and then when the video
is supposed to be played, it gets added successfully to the canvas
using addChild, the correct source gets assigned to the video
player, but i see no image when it starts playing. I hear sound,
but no picture. I know the correct source is being assigned to the
video player because I trace it before and while its playing the
video, aside from tracing the source, i hear the audio of the flv
currently playing so i know its the correct flv - only problem is
that there is no picture. The picture not displaying happens
randomly, so for example if the first 4 flv's have finished playing
the 5th won't show a picture although i hear the sound, then the
6th will work fine. When the entire process begins again, the 5th
will work fine, but the 6th and 7th flv won't. This is what totally
confuses me.
What I don't understand is if the correct source has been
assigned to the video display control and the correct flv starts
playing, why do i hear sound but no picture?
Could this be some sort of bug in the flash player? I'm using
Adobe Flash Player 9,0,28,0.
If anyone can provide me with some advice/opinions/idea to
give me some sort of clue that would be grand :).
Thanks for your time,
- Tony

I had this problem before. I found that if the VideoDisplay
component had not finished all inititialization functions before I
assigned the new flv, then I got sound with no video. Try listening
for creationComplete for your VideoDisplay component before you
assign the video source to see if that solves your problem.

Premiere CS3 and mpeg files

Befor to install the CS3 version of Premier, I would know if Premiere to recognize mpeg files or must rendering it (so Premiere Pro 2)
Thanks.

Based on reading a LOT of problem reports, importing files from a DVD camcorder or other MPEG device, or Ripping DVD files rarely results in success in Premiere... do not be fooled by movie industry advertising into thinking that "DVD Quality Video" is suitable for EDITING... it is not... a DVD is designed to be for PLAYBACK only... and that includes trying to edit a Standard Def MPEG or VOB file!
You should also use WAV sound files, not the compressed MP3 format, To work with AC3 files in Premiere, it MAY work to copy the ad2ac3dec.dll file from the Encore DVD directory into the Premiere directory
Go to my notes page http://www.pacifier.com/~jtsmith/ADOBE.HTM
Click the internal link for editing compressed files... read
There are other products better suited to your task... but if you only have DVD type files, you should convert to DV AVI... go to the VideoHelp link in my notes and look for a program to convert
The only SD (Standard Def) files that Premiere really likes are DV AVI type 2

Problems importing .mpeg files

when i import mpeg files into final cut, the video plays, but no sounds come out. so even when i put it into the timeline, there's no audio track. am i doing something wrong?

I thought his question was that his video was playing but he couldn't hear any music, if he downloaded his music from i-tunes which comes in a mpeg-4 file, final cut pro does not support the mpeg-4 he will have to change it over into a aiff file to make it work, I believe that is what he was asking but maybe I am wrong.

Can Premier Elements Import Subtitle files?

Can Premier Elements Import Subtitle files in one of the following formats (DFXP, SBV, SRT, SSI, TXT, VTT)?
Thank you,

No. Premiere Elements does not support subtitles. If you want subtitles you can workaround it by having two versions of your video, one with text added to the video track and one without - but you wouldn't be able to toggle between them during playback.
Cheers,
Neale

Uploaded my pictures from my iPhone to my MacBook- Some of the videos I made show that they imported and play sound, but no picture- are they gone?

I Uploaded my pictures from my iPhone to my MacBook… Some of the videos I made show that they imported and play sound, but no picture… are they gone?Becuase they offer to delete what was imported, so to save space i did... Is there anything I can do to restore the picture?

Do your videos play in QuickTime Playerwhen you reveal one of them in the Finder with "File > Reveal > Original"? Try to open the revealed movie in QuickTime and see if it plays.
Check the format of the movie. You can see it in the Inspector in QuickTime Player from the "WIndow" menu: Window > Show Inspector.
iPhoto does not support all movie formats and codecs that QuickTime player can play, and not all frame rates.
See: Using AVCHD video with iPhoto '11
If the movie does not play in QuickTime Player either, install QuickTime 7 for more codecs.

What is the driver version for your NVIDIA GeForce GT640?
There is a known issue specific to Premiere Elements 10 and NVIDIA GeForce. The Announcement at the top of this forum tells it all - detailed description of problem, references, fixes, and fix details.
The following is a copy paste of that Announcement....
If you are a Premiere Elements 10 user whose Windows computer uses a NVIDIA GeForce video card
and you are experiencing Premiere Elements 10 display and/or unexplained program behavior, then your
first line of troubleshooting needs to be rolling back the video card driver version instead of assuring that
it is up to date.
Since October 2013 to the present, there have been a growing number of reports about display and
unexplained workflow glitches specific to the Premiere Elements 10 user whose Windows computer
has a NVIDIA GeForce video card. If this applies to you, then the “user to user” remedy is to roll back
the NVIDIA GeForce video card driver as far as is necessary to get rid of the problems. The typical driver
roll back has gone back as far as March – July 2013 in order to get a working Premiere Elements 10.
Neither NVIDIA nor Adobe has taken any corrective action in this regard to date, and none is expected moving forward.
Since October 2013, the following thread has tried to keep up with the Premiere Elements 10 NVIDIA reports
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1317675
Older NVIDIA GeForce drivers can be found NVIDIA Driver Downloads - Advanced Search
A February 2014 overview of the situation as well as how to use the older NVIDIA GeForce drivers for
the driver roll back can be found http://atr935.blogspot.com/2014/02/pe10-nvidia-video-card-roll-back.html
Please refer to the following for the driver version history of your NVIDIA card
Based on history, you should be using

I can't hear sound but audiwaves are showing up

I recently had this problem. My program was working perfectly but one day, when I plugged my headset, there was absolutely no sound. What i don't understand is that the audiowaves are moving but I hear nothing. I tried: the bars and tones things, changing audio material even completely changing editing program but it still doesn't work.
I really need your help
PS:I have a usb headset if that can change something.

Hey, I think its just my pc that as problem because my speakers work but my
headset doesn't works so its probably my pc. I am pretty sure its a
connection problem(ex:usb ports). Finally, I really appreciated your help

How can i import mpeg files into iMovie?

how can i import mpeg files into iMovie?

Where are your MPEG stored?
I have hundreds of old MPEGs stored in my nexternal drive, but unfortunatly i was not able import them into iMovie. I did the following trick: I created a new set of a folder and subfolder and called it "Virtual_CAM/DCIM" and saved it on my desktop. Then went to Disk Utilities>File Menue>New>Disk Image from Folder. Then selected the folder on my desktop and clicked enter. I moved the .dmg file to my external (or just keep it on your desktop). I clicked on the .dmg file. It shoud be visible on the Finder. Open your Imovie and import as you do from your camera.
