Problem playing video

Since upgrading to Lion today, I cannot play any video on Apple's website using Safari. Not an issue with Firefox. I have an iMac Core i7 8 gigs ram

Did you buy it quite a while ago, Manok? If so check your Available downloads to see if there are replacement copies available, as per Roy B's post here:

Problem Playing Video in Premiere Pro CS4

I am having a problem playing video in premiere pro. When I input any movie clip and try to play it in both the timeline and in the preview mode, the audio works fine but the video only plays a few seconds worth of footage at a really slow pace so that it takes up the entire time. For instance if I load a 3 minute video, the sound is normal but over the coarse of that 3 minutes I will only see a small number of the frames and they are cycled through in ultra slow motion.
All the clips play normally outside of premiere. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the program. I have premiere installed on my laptop and it works fine. I have tried rendering the video first and it still doesn't work. I have tried holding shift before the program is loading and it did nothing. I have downloaded all the updates too. Videos seem to play fine in After Effects.
Also, I am having trouble when importing HD video into premiere and after effects. For some reason the programs freeze when I try to import footage from my Creative Vado HD pocket video camera.
Here are my computer specs
Windows Vista Ultimate 32 Bit
Intel Core2 Quad q8200
ATI Radeon 4670 Graphics Card
Gigabyte Motherboard
4GB of 800 Mhz RAM
This is really frustrating. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Keith,
The file extension .AVI indicate a "wrapper." All sorts of stuff can be in that wrapper *. Some of that stuff will play/edit fine. Much will not and create issues, as you have seen. Your camera uses a CODEC to create those .AVI files. That CODEC is the issue. I recommend G-Spot to find out what the CODEC is. Some times it's just a matter of having the proper CODEC installed on the computer. Most of the time, it takes much more than that - hence Eddie's links on "conversion." At least G-Spot will get us all on the same playing field, and explicit help can follow - probably to study Eddie's links. My guess is that your camera uses some form of DivX CODEC, hence the problem that you see.
Good luck,
Hunt
* Think of .AVI like the foil wrapper on a stick of gum, when you remove the outer lable. You know it's gum, but not what flavor. Could be Juicyfruit, or Spearmint, or Double-mint. G-Spot will tell you the flavor. PrPro likes some flavors, but hates others.

Sound Problems Playing Video's in iTunes

When i play videos (either ripped or bought from the iTunes store) in iTunes the sound is all broken up and clipped. However they play fine on the Vieo iPod my PC is sync'd to and, critically, iTunes audio files play fine on both PC and iPod. Any ideas? Settings for sound seem fine. I've even upgraded the memory on my Vaio to 1Gbyte in case it was that but nope

Should have said if I start quicktime seperately from iTunes and play a video stream from its website the sound is fine, however, if I open an Mpeg4 iTunes video file the sound problem occurs just like when i play a video in iTunes from the store or an Mpeg4 file from the hard drive that I've bought from the store or ripped from DVD

Problems playing videos on quicktime

i am trying to play videos saved on a wireless external hard drive, but the video and sound plays slow and choppy. My QuickTime app is fully updated and the movies used to play great. Any ideas?

Oops! In my effort to simplify my explanation, I reversed the actual mechanism I wanted to describe. As more experienced users are aware, the dropping of frames is what occurs when the the player in not capable of processing enough data fast enough. (E.g., when playing very large display files having complicated video codecs using very high data rates on a wireles network having insufficient bandwidth.) In the case to which I was referring, the playback by the player overruns the ability of the wireless device to provide source data. If this difference is great, playback may actually freeze to allow addition data to be cached by the player. In instances where this difference is very small, the player may only stop for a fraction of a second which is long enough for your eyes to interpret the stop as a playback "jitter." While this is not the only possible problem here, it can be a common one for files having unspecified compression formats, display dimension, file data rates, and/or wireless bandwidth.

Problems playing video within flash application on windows 7

Hello, I am trying to debug a problem with a stand-alone flash player application. I have been given some educational content that has been packaged as an adobe flash player application for windows.
This program has embedded mp4 files. I can see the files on disk also and I can play them fine with every video player on my PC.
However when I play the videos inside the flash application they video sticks, replaying the first frame over and over (the audio continues fine). I don't think this is a problem with the adobe application because it works fine on several other machines.
This seems to be an issue with one specific machine (windows 7) and how it interacts with this application.
The properties tab on the abobe player exe shows a version of 11.4 r402.
I have tried to research this online and also on these forums but all advice seems targeted at the players for browsers, and this is something different. I am not sure how it is produced, I think perhaps by some adobe packaging product the provider is using.
I also realize this may be the wrong forum but it was the best match I could find.
Any tips and pointers greatly appreciated!
thanks
James

Any ideas here? Even a suggestion for a better forum would be great.
I am really confused that the videos play fine with media players I have but not within the adobe player app.
Any suggestions?

Problem playing video made from final cut

In my digital media class we use intel mac pros with the newest version of final cut pro. I made a 4 minute horror movie using a sony FX-1 HDV camera.
When i exported it from final cut, i exported it as a quicktime using the HDV 1080i60 video codec. Then i brought the finished final cut quicktime clip in quicktime and exported it as a pure .mov file that is 881 megabytes in size.
After that i put it on my flash drive and brought it home to my windows XP machine with specs listed below.
I attempted to play the movie and it said i needed a codec to play it. There was no video but the audio was clear and pristine.
Obviosly my PC is well beyond that of a normal consumer PC (seeing as it was built as a gaming PC) and it cant be that i havent met the requirements.
I cant find the HDV 1080i60 codec any where on the internet and the apple support team doesn't list a phone # to call.
I also have a 22" sceptre 2ms 300 nm, 2000:1 contrast ratio monitor capable of playing 1080p video so it cant be the monitor.
can anyone help me to play the video. Im running the newest version of quicktime 7 pro.
Help me plz, i would greatly appreciate it.

Export to QuickTime movie and set the size to 1080 and the codec as H.264.
Adjust the audio codec also to help reduce the file size.

Problem playing video then audiobook

Has anyone else noticed any issues when going from playing a video file to and audiobook. My ipod will continue to play the audio from the video while the audiobook is playing. If I shuffle songs between switching it works as usual.

I just tried it, it does the same thing to me.
I have to go to Music and play a song first, then the audiobooks will play fine.
I am getting tired of all these little annoying bugs.

Help! weird problem playing videos

When I start playing a video, the picture looks good. About ten seconds in, I see all kinds of white distortion so bad I can barely make out the picture. When I press a button or adjust the volume the distortion clears up for a few seconds, but then goes back distorted. If I leave the ipod plugged in to the computer the video is all clear, but the second I unhook it the distortion reappears. So, I plug it into the wall charger thinking it's a battery/voltage issue. Nope. I'm lost.

Sorted it, I accidentally gave the file a file name more than eight characters!

Problems playing video in iMovie

Hi, I copied some video footage over from a friends macbook onto mine but now it wont play. It's an .mp4 file and it plays the sound but only with a black screen. I have tried it in various video playing software such as VLC and Quicktime but they are all the same. When I open the video in iMovie, it shows the images in the video so I know the data is there but again, when i play it, a black screen. Help?! Is converting it to another file type likely to help recover the data?! Please don't tell me the video is lost as I have no way of getting it back again!!!

Problem playing videos from Youtube on Nokia N8

Since a few days ago, I have some problems to reproduce videos from Youtube on my nokia N8. (The phone is updated with the latest version of Symbian OS.)
What is the symptom: Basically the images and sounds are "cut or chopped" .. the videolooks "pixelated".
This situation is similar to when the PC is necessary to have some video codec and then the videos are seen and heard wrong.
The problem occurs on the browser and in other applications like Xenozu "(in normal and high quality). I have a flat rate internet, but the problem happens also via wireless.
Other videos and systems work fine, for example RedBullTV.
Its very strange. .. I do not know what happens! : (
If anyone can help me .. thank you very much!
Regards.

In http://m.youtube.com/app I receive the message " incompatible device "

Problem playing videos, display driver.

When I open my program(Adobe Premiere Elements 10) and I choose a project, a message pops up saying "we have detected an incompatible display driver." How do I update my display driver? Why hasn't this message ever popped up before?

Well, "never" might be a bit too strong, BUT if you look through the PrE, PrPro and PS (yes, Photoshop now relies very heavily on the video driver, as of about CS 5), you will see hundreds, if not thousands of posts that basically state: "Windows told me that I had the latest driver, but that was from 2010, and I now see that nVidia (or AMD) has 25 newer ones... " I suppose that there HAVE been times, when Windows has gotten it right, but I have not seen one. The same holds for most driver utilities - they are so out of date, as to be useless. Without doing a spreadsheet of all such posts, and counting the times that Windows "got it right," vs how many that it got it very wrong, I would say that the best one could hope for with Windows and judging the video driver to be about 1:1000, and maybe even less. I contend that Windows is almost completely useless at determining if the video (and audio) driver is the latest one.
As nVidia and AMD/ATI release a new driver, almost monthly (AMD is really cutting back on their driver updates for some reason), the Web site is the best place to check, and by a significant margin. The mfgr's. Web site will be 100% correct, all of the time.
As for just the deletion of the BadDrivers.TXT file, if one still has an obsolete video driver, the program SHOULD just regenerate that file. Now, if they HAVE updated the driver, deleted the BadDrivers.TXT file, it should NOT be regenerated, at least for an nVidia, or AMD/ATI chip/card.
It is just like my tire inflation warnings on my autos. I can reset the warning message, but if I do not change the inflation of my tires, a new warning message is generated.
Just my opinion,
Hunt

Youtube problem when playing videos in safari

Whatever youtube video i play it just freezes and glitches and the whole video window and webpage becomes unresponsive whether im on youtube or watching a youtube video on another site, the video is unwatchabe and i have to reload the page over and over and sometimes it will eventially play okay. I have no problems playing videos through firefox.
I have tried empyting the cache, cookies and all the other browsing data, i have tried reinstalling flash player, i have cleaned my computer and still the problem persisits. I have no problems with any other video sites or flash windows, its just youtube (typically).
I need help to get to the bottom of this!

Hi..
Quit Safari.
Open System Preferences > Flash Player then select the Storage tab. Click: Delete All
You need to uninstall the current Flash plugin then reinstall new > Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
Launch Safari From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache (yes, do this one more time).
Now try a video.
BTW... if you have the ClickToFlash extension installed, that can prevent Flash based video from streaming. It can also be installed as a plugin in /Library/Internet-Plug-Ins.
And check to see if Safari is running in 32 bit mode. Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info. If the box next to: Open in 32 bit mode is selected, deselect, quit then relaunch Safa
