Proprietary Kodak MOV Compression. Please help!!!!! Please
Im stuck you guys, Please help me. Im not a Noob, Ive been on the phone with support for Kodak, Quicktime....Ive been all over doom9, howard forums, here.....even made a post on myspace
Here is the deal put as simple as possible.
I have a Kodak EasyShare C340 Digital Camera. The camera Records and recognizes A proprietary Motion Jpeg A (mjpeg) MOV Format, with u-law 2:1, mono, 8000 khz audio.
My camera has an a/v output which is use to blow up its sd memory stored pictures/slideshows/videos onto a tv. I would like to convert and compress video files from my PC, Replicating that proprietary kodak mov compression, so i will be able to save my pc video files to my camera's sd memory and play the saved files through the camera's A/V output. You follow?
Again, ive been everywhere, and im not a noob. I have many converters and programs to do just about anything i would want to video and audio. I have Quicktime pro, super, Imtoo complete package, advanced x....to name a few. I know how to convert video. I understand format, codec, compression on an intermediate plus level. Im seeing most beginners having issues converting the cameras mov file to an avi (or something more component friendly) format, but i seem to be the only person who is trying to do the opposite.
Ive downloaded Gspot and video instector to identify the format/compression settings of the MOV files from my camera, but they are unrecognizable. Quicktime does however provide basic file info for these vids.
I have ripped Dvds, Xvid and divx Avis, dvr recorded Mpegs etc.....that I would like to be able to run on my camera. Ill convert these videos to MOV using the closest info i can find to replicate format settings that the camera would recognize and when i put the videos on my camera's sd card, the camera sees that there is a file but says it cant recognize it.
I have a Windows XP machine. I dont know where else to turn for Help. Please anyone. Someone has to have wanted to do this before.
Thanks in advance
P4 1.7 Custom Windows XP Pro
Should i copy this into the compression group?

My keynote seems to be misbehaving. Me, a teacher was preparing a ppt on keynote.all of a sudden, the navigator column to my left goes black and nothing seems to move. Please help! Only 12 hours before I take class.
Hi KRKabutoZero,
Welcome to Apple Discussions
You may want to look at Knowledge Base Document #58042 on A flashing question mark appears when you start your Mac.
Do you have access to another Mac? You may want to backing up your files via Target Disk Mode (TDM) as well as running some utilities (Knowledge Base Document #58583 on How to use FireWire target disk mode.
You may want to invest in a utility like DiskWarrior from Alsoft. It is great for troubleshooting drive malfunctions.
As said before, you may also want to bring your iBook to your local Apple Store/Reseller.

When trying to make a purchase for a movie I get a security information required field then I select continue and it brings me back to original screen to purchase movie. Please help.
It's telling you to verify your billing information (credit card, address, security code), which needs to be done in iTunes via computer.

CANT WATCH MOVIES OFFLINE please help me....
So I downloaded mission impossible to my iPad from my iPad, and then from my computer. I need to watch it offline, but whenever I try to play it, it says could not load movie. PLEASE HELP ME
In the Forte Project Explorer, click on the FileSystems tab. Right-click on the top-level node ("FileSystems") and select "Mount Jar" from the context menu. Navigate to j2ee.jar and select it. The jar should then show in the list of FileSystems.
The imports should then be found. -
Unable to play some movies from Netflix on my iPad. When I click on a movie an error message comes up "Cannot play movie. Please try again later." I contacted Netflix but have not been able the help so I am wondering if it's my iPad. I didn't have a problem before but I have recently upgraded to iOS 7.1. Also is a certain amount of storage needed to play a movie? About how much is that?
Hello all,
I have an iPad 2 16GB with iOS 7.0.3 and Netflix version 5.0.2. I cannot watch netflix on an External LCD monitor that I have through VGA out. I use bluetooth speakers, so the AirPlay is going to that for Audio. Before this update, this combo worked without an issue.
So as of Friday Nov. 8/2013, I contacted Netflix support, and they said they fixed the problem on their end, and the fix is on the Apple side of things, and to contact Apple support.
So, I contacted Apple support, and the first person I spoke to said I would have to agree to pay a $35 fee for 30 days of support to this problem since my unit is out of warranty. I said this isn't a hardware issue, it's a software issue, and I'm not willing to pay to fix a problem you created. So I got a Senior Level advisor on the line, and she was helpful, and she's looking into the issue for me and said she'll contact me sometime on Tuesday or Wednesday (Nov. 12 or 13) to let me know of the issue.
Here's the thing: this is a combination of Netflix and iOS not working correctly with any of the Apple Authorized Dongles. This is truly a code error that some hot shot programmer had major oversight on, and their management didn't catch it either. There was no reason for Netflix to rush to get this Netflix update going until Apple sorted out the bugs in iOS 7.
Anyway, if I hear anything from Donna (the advisor), I'll post it and let you guys know. In the mean time, good luck! -
I ordered a movie on iTunes back in April, the movie didn't finish downloading, I got a message that there was an error, so a few days later, I downloaded it again. This time I used my husbands bank card, which has a different number, but is connected to our joint checking account. I noticed the duplicate charge for the one movie. PLEASE HELP ME FIGURE OUT HOW TO GET CREDIT FOR THIS DUPLICATE CHARGE! Or at least get some itunes store credit. The movie was "Miss Representation" the number on my invoice is: MGSG1YL7
PLEASE HELP! I've tried getting this resolved several times, with the bank and through the itunes help desk to no avail!
E-Mail me please!
Thank-you,
LoriWe are all itunes users just like you.

"QUICK TIME IS UNABLE TO PLAY THIS MOVIE. PLEASE TRY AGAIN."
I edited an iMovie video and shared it on my MobileMe Gallery. I can play it back fine from home, but when friend try to view it, they see only the first frame of the video, but hear all of the audio - with the error message "QUICK TIME IS UNABLE TO PLAY THIS MOVIE. PLEASE TRY AGAIN."
Trying to view it again produced the same result.
Any suggestions?Something odd here.
I too get the same message as you, if I inspect element (cntl + click) there is no mention of a movie, if I try to download it, nothing happens, are you sure the movie is actually there, check your idisk/Web/Sites/_gallery/100036 -

I have an external hard drive which has my i-photo on it & some movies from i-movie that I have on disk now. But for some reason my ehd has a caution symbol on it & I can't move my event to free up space on my hd so that I can export i-movie events. Help!
Usually the caution symbol means that it's formatted as a PC compatible format like NTFS or most likely FAT32. For iMovie to use it the ehd must be formatted Mac OS Extended. Then iMovie will show it without the caution symbol and you can drag/drop open any Event/Project from that hard drive.
To find out if it's formatted as PC:
Go to the desktop, holding down the Control key click on that ehd and in the pop-menu choose 'Get Info'
Under Format: It will say whether or not it's Mac OS Extended (Journaled). The only way to undo a PC formatted ehd would be to copy everything off of it first, Erase/Format the drive using Disk Utility in the Applications>Utilities folder on your Mac, choosing the Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format in the pull-down menu there. -
Move System Preferences Help file back into System Preferences folder?
How do I move System Preferences Help file back into System Preferences folder. I unintentionally moved it. My Mac blocks putting it back. Suggestions? Thanks!
Somehow I managed to delete my System Preferences shortly after upgrading, and was able to use the 10.4 one for a while until I applied the patch. Luckily, I already had Pacifist, and with your directions I was able to get close enough so that I could find the Applications folder within the ContentsofEssentialsSystemSoftwareGroup > ContentsofEssentials.pkg > Applications > SystemPreferences.app.
For that, I owe you the deepest gratitude and a gigantic THANK YOU. My System Preferences is now fully reinstalled and working wonderfully.
Pacifist might actually be worth purchasing. -
Trying to export a movie compressed with H.264 out of AE
I am having some issues with exporting a movie compressed with H.264. I am using AE CS3. When I output with the settings of this image:
http://intuitionusa.com/ae.gif
I get an error message that is below in the image. I have to leave Quicktime in the top settings in the output module and then select H.264 in the format button. It allows me to render out, but a message appears saying it is better to select H.264 from the "format" dialog box.
* Also, when I export out to H.264 the file size is much larger than just using quicktime pro. I think it might be better to export an uncompressed file from AE and then use QT pro to compress but that is going to use up a lot of disc space.
SHoutzagerYou're probably getting that error because of a frame size/codec conflict.
Your comp is 900x600, and the MainConcept codec is looking for a frame size of 720x480 (NTSC DV).
Using the Quicktime wrapper to export the H.264 is a fine optioin, however, AE will not do as good of a job compressing to that codec as Quicktime Pro, or a dedicated compression application would do. AE can only cache a limited number of frames for the compression process (frames before and after the current frame), and as a result, the compression quality and filesize will not be as small as they could be by using a different tool for the job.
As such, your supposition about rendering out an uncompressed/losslessly compressed movie and then running it through QT Pro (or another compression application) yielding superior results was a correct one. -
I have rented a movie on iTunes and it says I'm running out of time to watch but it is not downloading the movie can someone help
It does take some time for a movie to download, could it still be downloading ? Also the rental tab is only there when you have rented a movie. If all else fails talk to iTunes support, they have helped me in the past.
