Qt and codec problem

Ever since I had to reinstall my OS, QT will not play avi files. I had this same issue a while back and Perian fixed it. I redownloaded Perian after the reinstall, but certain avi files still won't play.
Also, I downloaded Divx and Xvid to try, and those didn't help. Now, I can't trash the Divx codec and the Apple codec that goes with it. Help?

These are the downloads and the settings you need in order to view/hear pretty much everything that the net can throw at you: The setup described below has proved repeatedly successful on both PPC and Intel macs, but nothing in life carries a guarantee!
It is known to work in the great majority of cases with Safari 3.0.4, QT 7.3 and OS 10.4.11.
Assuming you already run Tiger versions OS 10.4.9 or above (this has not yet been verified with Leopard) and have Quicktime 7.2 or above, and are using Safari 2 or 3, download and install (or re-install even if you already had them) the latest versions, suitable for your flavor of Mac, of:
RealPlayer 10 for Mac from http://forms.real.com/real/player/blackjack.html?platform2=Mac%20OS%20X&product= RealPlayer%2010&proc=g3&lang=&show_list=0&src=macjack
Flip4Mac WMV Player from http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/wmcomponents.mspx (Windows Media Player for the Mac is no longer supported, even by Microsoft)
Perian from http://perian.org/
Adobe FlashPlayer from http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash
(You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.)
In Quicktime Preferences, under advanced, UNcheck Enable Flash, and under Mime settings/Miscellananeous only check Quicktime HTML (QHTM).
In Macintosh HD/Library/Quicktime/ delete any files relating to DivX (Perian already has them).
Now go to Safari Preferences/Security, and tick the boxes under Web Content (all 4 of them).
Lastly open Audio Midi Setup (which you will find in the Utilities Folder of your Applications Folder) and click on Audio Devices. Make sure that both Audio Input and Audio Output, under Format, are set to 44100 Hz.
Important: Now repair permissions and restart.
The world should now be your oyster!
You should also have the free VLC Player from http://www.videolan.org/ in your armory, as this plays almost anything that DVD Player might not.

I just ran an Apple software update and lost video in my Final Cut 7 running on OS 10.6.8. It is indicating a codec problem. Any ideas on how to fix this?

I just ran a software update and lost video in my FCP 7 timeline (OS 10.6.8). I get an error message that there is a codec problem and get either a green or black screen. Anybody have idea how to fix this?

what happens if you create a new apple prores 422 sequence and drop bars and tone into it.
Does it display correctly? If so, I'd assume the the prores codecs are ok.
Not sure I"ve worked with hdv2 material. You may need to reinstall your os and fcp and not do the latest software update. People have definitely reported problems with hdv material after the update. Maybe someone will speak up with an alternative solution.

Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum Pro Mic/Codec problem

Okay, I'm running a ZS Plat Pro and I'm having some problems with my mic settings for some reason. Here's the deal:
My headphones are plugged into my external hub with the mic into the Line In slot. I have sound, theres power, that's all good. The problem lies with my microphone settings somewhere, I dunno where, with a possible codec problem I'm guessing. Here's why.
I can't get ANYTHINGto pick up in my mic. All the settings are correct in Control Panal and in my Creative Volume Control. Line In is selected for Recording, the volume is up, it's not muted, my headset is not muted, and the gain is turned on on my external hub, yet still nothing. Here is where hopefully someone can help. I can get it to work in Ventrilo when I go into setup. In setup to test with, I have to select a Codec from a list to use to test with. Meaning, there is NO current selected codec to test with. Once I select one, it works.
What I'm guessing is somehow, my computer doesn't have a current codec selected for my mic to work with. IE: MSN, Yahoo, Windows Sound Recorder, control panal/sound and audio/test hardware... they all come up detecting no sound at all, when in FACT, I know it works in Ventrilo when I select a codec.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled the card with up to date drivers. Can anyone help at all please? Thank you.

RENDER and AVI and CODEC issues

I've ripped a DVD clip from Handbrake-- AVI file and Codec is AVC/H.264 video/MPS audio (that's how it is) and it will go into FCP ok and to the timeline. It needs rendered and so begins the problem.
It says, there's a "render error and not enough disk space/free up with render manager?" There's PLENTY of space. I deleted all rendering in the render manager for good measure and I have 350 internal GB of space and 500GB external HD. Room is not a problem.
Never had this problem before. Suggestions?

why is Final Cut giving me a Render error when I clearly have plenty of space and it's never done this before.
You converted the files to the wrong format...pure and simple. FCP doesn't like dealing with those codecs. I think it's bad that it even lets them work initially...because it leads people into the false belief that FCP will work with those formats.
The codec you chose is one FCP doesn't work with, that is why you have having issues. You need to convert to formats you find in the EASY SETUP list. ProRes is the HD codec of choice.
Trashing preferences won't help. You need to convert ALL of your footage to the proper format, give those new files the same names as the ones you are working with now....and relink to the new files. And then fix the sequence settings to match. THis is a big mess that will take effort to fix.

Premier CS4 - codec problem?

I have a DVD-R with several .avi files on it. It was mailed to me for use in a project. I cannot tell you what type of camera or what software they used to burn this dvd. I tried to use the clips in Premier, but they would not work. I can open them in WMP. I'm working in Vista 64 with CS4.
I went into properties to see what extension and codec was used. Though the extension says .avi, the codec says "MainConcept (Adobe2) MPEG Video Decoder". The size is 640 x 480.
Can anyone tell me how to convert these .avi files to files that can be read by Adobe Premier CS4? I don't see that codec listed. I read the file on ImTooVideo Converter, but that doesn't seem to list the solution to this particular problem.
Suggestions?

Bill - I used Adobe Encoder and it encoded the files to .avi from whatever it actually was. However, it did not encode the audio. I have good quality video with no audio. I tried a couple of times.
Any idea on how to convert the audio now that the video is done?
I can't download that Gspot program. The video computer is off line w/no virus protection. I really try not to add anything to that system. It's very touchy - using windows vista 64 etc etc.

New document about sequence presets and codecs missing from Premiere Pro

If you're having problems with sequence presets and codecs missing from Premiere Pro, see this document for solutions for this activation issue.
This document relates to the following problems:
- missing sequence presets when creating a new sequence
- Encore error: "Encore will not launch in non-royalty bearing mode. The application needs to be serialized with a royalty bearing serial number."
- When opening a project in Premiere Pro: "Error Adobe Premiere Pro: This project contained a sequence that could not be opened. No sequence preview preset file or codec could be associated with this sequence type."
- When importing footage, the footage is missing audio or video.
These failures are all because Premiere Pro and Encore use some codecs that require activation before they can be used. If activation of these codecs has failed, these codecs will not be available to use.

Well done.

Serious M-Audio Profire 610 sync and dropout problem

After an, over a month, waiting for a solution to the problem from m-audio, I have to post the problem to the community:
I m using an early 2009 8-core MAC PRO with M-Audio Profire 610, using it for video editing with Final Cut Pro (and sound design with Pro Tools).
The problem is that since I've updated the machine to 10.6.7, I m experiencing VIDEO dropouts in Final Cut, the very first playback seconds of EVERY video track (on every codec) that I try to preview and at any point of it.
Also, occasionally, the audio-video sync is lost and I have to pause-play in order to gain the sync back on..
When I switch the audio output to Built in audio or Display audio, the dropout and sync problem disappears. When I switch back to Profire 610 the dropout starts again.
The video and audio settings and the tracks encoding are the same for at least 2 years now, since I m working ALLWAYS with my P2 panasonic DCVPROHD camera, with which I have shot and edit in my MAC PRO multiple videos, including a feature film..
I have tested the problem on two Macbook pros (early 2007) that I use for the shootings and the problem is there also !(when I plug the Profire 610)
The last think that I 've tried on my main unit, was:
-do a zero data format to my vertex 2 ssd boot drive,
-do a clean install of Snow Leopard (10.6.0)
-restore the system from a time machine backup (the os still remains 10.6.0)
-run 10.6.6 combo update
-uninstall the profire driver
-repair permissions
-install the profire driver (for 32 bit 10.6.6)
-repair permissions.
The problem's still here.
I m stuck with my projects here… Is there a solution out there?
Thank you very much for the attention
Diamantis

So, to be clear, it happens when the FirePro 610 in connected, and does not happen when it's diconnected?
That is obviously directly related to the FirePRo 610 having some hardware latency issues on an OS level. That's up to M-Audio to fix. There was never anything wrong with your Mac, there's something wrong with the M-Audio unit, obviously.
Do you have a FW hard drive plugged in? If so, will it work correctly without any other FW devices connected?
It could be defective.

IMovie iShowU and codec

Ok folks... you have been 2 for 2 so thanks thus far...
I have a video that was created via screen capture w/iShowU
the settings used included Apple Animation for compression <which seems to be a big mistake... :(
The settings I used was
Record System Audio <which worked fine>
Normal Frame Rate: 40
Quality: MAX
Compression: Apple Animation
Capture size: 1068w/608h
so the problem is...
I save it
as ishowu mov file
I can import it directly to imovie or quicktime
either way I can see the mov file playing and hear the audio
BUT when I export it to file / movie no matter which settings I try it exports as a BLACK screen but I do have audio !
SO.. it must be a codec problem right ?
I have tried three diff compressions and I still cant get the mix right and the exporting to work but to a black screen !
Thanks !
iam

The Animation Codec is the culprit. Do a search on animation in this forum, and you will find a lot of info on this. You will need to convert it into a codec that iMovie supports before importing it.

Hi Danny,
Per my understanding that you can't get the expect result by using the expression "=Count(Fields!TICKET_STATUS.Value=4) " to count the the TICKET_STATUS which value is 4, the result will returns the count of all the TICKET_STATUS values(206)
but not 180, right?
I have tested on my local environment and can reproduce the issue, the issue caused by you are using the count() function in the incorrect way, please modify the expression as below and have a test:
=COUNT(IIF(Fields!TICKET_STATUS.Value=4 ,1,Nothing))
or
=SUM(IIF(Fields!TICKET_STATUS=4,1,0))
If you still have any problem, please feel free to ask.

BOSD, Battery issues and Heating problem after iOS 8 upgrade

i have upgraded my iPad mini to iOS 8. Ever since I upgraded to iOS 8 am facing blue screen issues and heating problem as well. This is really frustrating even the patch iOS 8.0.2 dint solve the problem. Are you guys listening our complaints. When will you fixing it.

The same thing happened to me on my 2012 Subaru Outback. I'm not sure this will help you since you have a Honda, but I'm posting this just in case.
I paired the audio on my car with my iPhone 6. However, when I turned the car off and back on again, the iPhone would not pair automatically. I had to manually connect the iPhone with the car. Turns out there are two separate bluetooth pairings on my car: one for phone which allows up to 5 devices and one for audio which allows only one device. So I did the second bluetooth pairing for the phone (had already done the audio), and that fixed it. YMMV

you hit 1
RockCrabs health is 7
RockCrab hit 7
your health is 24
you hit 1
RockCrabs health is 6
RockCrab hit 7
your health is 17
my point is whatever some one hits it always repeats that
my expected output would have to be something like
you hit 1
RockCrabs health is 9
RockCrab hit 9
your health is 37
you hit 3
RockCrabs health is 6
RockCrab hit 4
your health is 33
you hit 2
RockCrabs health is 4
RockCrab hit 7
your health is 26
you hit 3
RockCrabs health is 1
RockCrab hit 6
your health is 20

Remote and IR Problem

A rather odd and annoying problem has recently been occuring on my MBP. A couple days ago my remote (after working without fail for over a year now) suddenly stopped working. Yesterday night and this morning it started working again but after a while it stopped again. I've read dozens of support articles which haven't really helped because there seems to be another problem.
Most articles have stated that there is an option to disable the IR receiver in the "security" window under system preferences. When the IR and remote are not working this option disappears but when they are working the option is present. I have also tried replacing the battery without any result.
I am now thinking that it might have something to do with heat buildup because it is mainly occuring after the laptop has been on for about a half hour, so I am going to try to borrow someone's fan.
If anyone has any suggestions to solve this I would appreciate it if you could help. Thanks!

LG Ally text message and gps problems

hello. ive been with verizon for about 10 years maybe. ive been overall happy with the service and customer service. but the prices should be alot lower.lol. i started out with the motorolas then switched to the lg phones. only problem with the motorola was the speakers. not loud enough. could never hear the phone ring. the lgs usually suffer from the same problem.
i had a few phone problems but nothing like this lg ally. im on my second one and about to be my 3rd one in about 3 months. 1st phone i had every problem under the sun. this phone i am suffering from text message problems and gps problems. i suffer from what everyone else has problems with. the messages wont send. they will eventually lock up. it will show the envelope with the red explanation point ( i think thats the graphic). then usually everytime when i sent a text the texts will close. it will send then bounce back and show up as a draft and i have to resend it and wait for it to go thru. finally the last problem with the texts. when i send a text a phone number from my contacts shows up and freezes on the screen. its in white text with a black background. its the same number every time. it stays on the screen until i restart or pull my battery out.
gps. when i open up google gps that comes with the phone i make sure the gps is on... when the directions are found and the map pops up 9 out of 10 times it just keeps saying searching for gps. the turn by turn never is found. the 1 time it does it takes a good 10 minutes to be found. atleast on my first one ally the gps did work 8 out of 10 times. it just took a good 5-10 minutes for gps to be found and show turn by turn.
anyone else have these problems? where you able to fix them or did you need to get a new phone? the 2.1 update was supposed to fix problems. i think they just made it worse. the ally is supposed to have 2.2 froyo. where is it. is it ever going to get it. i got this phone because i like the lgs and the keyboard. also the sales representative on the phone was giving the lg ally rave reviews. why couldnt he say dont buy this go with a motorola droid. this phone is the biggest junk ever made

I do apologize you are having trouble with your device I looked in our information system on the LG Ally in reguards to issues you are having it states if you have the Free Droid Security anti virus protection application down loaded it will cause the phone to lock up or freeze. Check and make sure you do not have the application on your device. Check you GPS settings and make sure correct. Go to Settings; Location & Security; make sure GPS is on wireless network. If this does not fix issue you can try doing a Master Reset on your device. Make sure your contacts are saved in your G-mail account or through Back Up Assistance.
Master Reset/Soft Reset:
Factory Reset option 1
From the main screen, touch menu tab
Touch Settings
Touch Privacy
Touch Factory Data reset
Touch Reset Phone
Warning: This will erase all data from your phone, including:
Your Google account
System and application data and settings

Turn off the phone
Press and hold "home" + "end" + "volume up or down" keys together for a few seconds when the device is power off
Once device displays boot information, release keys.
Soft Reset
Press the Power key.
Touch Power off.
Touch OK.
Press the Power key to power on the device.
or
Remove battery cover, remove battery and reinstall.Also there is a new update for LG Ally it will be the Froyo 2.2 but there is not release date available at this time it will post on your device when available. Hope this Helps. Leslie
