QT Export to H.264 Files Crashing FireFox and my Mac Pro

I'm trying to create videos viewable on Apple mobile devices. Using QT Player 10 (114), I did an export and got the m4v file and support other files and the movie works fine on the mobile devices plus Safari. But FireFox crashes HARD, and I can't Force Quit as my Mac Pro is even crashed. I tried again. Crashed again.
Then I tried using QT Player 7 Pro which on export creates a bit more code and parameters, and again Apple devices and Safari work fine, but FF and my Mac crash hard.
I have to hard quit my computer in after trying to open the exported files from QT. Has anyone had this same experience or any advice how to fix this?
Yes, I exported for both iPhone and Computer.
QuickTimeKirk are you around? Have any input? Help!
Thanks,
Steven

I use the same intial settings as I see in the Apple ads Hollywood movies. But get much higher file sizes. What is the trick to getting the same quality and small file size I see in the QT and Apple ads?
Many factors are involved here. Try reading the following document which covers many of the elementary basics.
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/tutorials/h264.html
Once you master these techniques, you can then move on to more advanced strategies which optimize encoding based on changes in the actual scene content (e.g., complexity of motion vectors, lighting, application of editing effects/filters, etc.) and manually keyed into the project by the user. Afraid others would have to help you here as this is beyond my current level of expertise.

    That could be the problem. If you actually mean DWCS6 and not DWCC 2014.1.1 when you say "latest" (check out Help > About Dreamweaver for your actual version) it requires the older Java SE 6 to be installed on the Mac. See if reinstalling it helps...
    Java for OS X 2014-001
    If you're using DWCC 2014 and updated your OS after having DW installed, you may need to reinstall to work out the kinks. Using the Cleaner Tool from Adobe to reinstall will give you a completely fresh installation...

  • Export using H.264, file won't retain aspect ratio

    Hi,
    I'm attempting to export a file using Compressor, and the "H.264 LAN Streaming" setting. The finished file doesn't retain the original aspect ratio (16:9) but creates a file that has is 4:3.
    After several attempts and checking all the obvious stuff, I started thinking maybe it has something to do with using video with different frame rates in this project. My camera is an HVX-200 and I shot primarily in 720/24p but also had some shots at 60 fps. Just wondering if this could be causing any problems.
    It's probably some simple thing I've just completely overlooked, but I'd sure appreciate any help. The couple of times I've posted here I've received great input, so thanks in advance.

    You have to set the dimensions. DVCPRO HD is an anamporphic format, so it will export anamorphic. Unless you give it 16:9 dimensions. Like 640x360.

  • Latest Quicktime Plugin crashing Firefox and IE

    The latest Quicktime plugin, 7.2, is crashing both Firefox and IE.

    If Athlon 64 is a 64 bit system, I've read here at the discussion's that it is not supported by QT. But other's may be able to confirm that. The only time I've expierenced QT crash is when I've not had the correct driver for Nvidia, or hard lock up when I had hardware not configured properly.If the computer does not meet the system spec's for high definition H.264 the computer will also crash. The latest version of Firefox 2.0.0.7 and QT 7.2 work fine together.

  • Why is the audio file stop playing midway through a .mp3 file in Firefox and not in the IE browser ?

    I added an audio file on to my website, http://www.widescreenonlinereview.com/COMIC-REVIEWS.html. However, the mp3 file stop midway though the song, but the .mp3 file plays completely in the IE Browser.
    I tried update Firefox, but I lost some major add-on, which me caused to return to my present Firefox browser, and the .mp3 file still would not play completely in the updates browser either.

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    ''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
    Thank you.

  • AVI files crash Finder and Quicktime

    I am trying to put together a video using some .avi files i have on an external hard drive. But every time i try to open the file in quicktime, preview it, or import it into final cut express, it either crashes the finder completely or quicktime gives me error messages such as "mac os error 51","mac os error 1009",or "mac os error 6." i know that quicktime will open these files because i opened them on my macbook pro. Both the imac (the one with problems) and the macbook pro are both up-to-date.
    Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    I have a similar problem with avi files, crashing the Finder. In the columns view mode, when I click on them and it should shown the preview, the little gray wheel keeps spinning and the Finder goes up to using almost 100% of the CPU and the avi file is "in use" if I try to delete it. Only solution (that I know of) is to relaunch the Finder.
    I have no problems playing the files though, it just takes longer than usual to open the files. I believe it started happening when I updated to Quicktime 7.4, and having read about numerous bugs of this version, I got VLC player and set it as the default program to play .avi files. It had basically fixed the problem for a while (no Finder crashes, still a bit slow but faster than QT) until it started again. So it doesn't seem to be just a Quicktime problem?
    PS: Do people from Apple actually give answers in this forum or even read it?

  • .avi files crash finder and quicktime player after Flip4Mac component mess

    The .avi files that are downloaded directly from my camera cause the finder to crash as it tries to preview, they will cause Quicktime Player to quit unexpectedly, and Final Cut Pro will see them as corrupt. The files still open in VLC so I know they aren't corrupt.
    I think this may have happened because the stupid 'Flip4Mac' program suggested that I remove some conflicting components. I accidentally lost them and I'm not sure which ones they were.
    I tried re-installing Quicktime 7.20, but that didn't seem to do it. Does anybody know which components I should be looking to re-install? Maybe the ones that commonly go with FCP and Quicktime? Or does anyone know which components Flip4Mac will identify as conflicting?

    http://perian.org for your AVI files.
    Remove any browser plug-in that has an x in it's name as Perian replaces them (with better compatibility).
    I don't use Flip4Mac but what I've read about it suggests it is used by WMP formats (not AVI).
    AVI was invented by Microsoft and they discontinued the container nearly ten years ago.

  • EXS 24 audio files missing from G4 to mac Pro. Export solves, but why?

    Hi. I recently upgraded from G4 DP to Mac Pro (huge jump). While some of my sample libraries work straight away...others do not, claiming "file not found" when I know they're there.
    A cure that works is to go back to the G4, load the files into EXS24 there, export them to my external drive and then run the mac pro off this. The "export" seems to be the critical step and seems to re-create the apparently missing audio files.
    It's very slow as can only do one at a time. Is there something obvious I'm missing here?
    All thoughts welcome
    Jonathan

    I have this too and I haven't been able to find any info on the net about this.
    I have no audio transitions or effects at all.  Would love to find out how to fix this.

  • I downloaded a file in Firefox and it will not let me open it. It did say the download was complete! what can I do?

    Why is firefox download not allowing me to open files I have downloaded when it says the download was complete.
    == This happened ==
    Not sure how often
    == I downloaded files yesterday and today

    It is possible that your anti-virus software is corrupting the downloaded files or otherwise interfering with downloading files by Firefox.
    You can try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.
    Do not forget to re-enable the scanning in your anti-virus software after you are finished with downloading and installing.
    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_save_or_download_files (Disable virus scanning in Firefox preferences - Windows)

  • How can I download zipped CSV files in Firefox and ensure this happens automatically in future?

    When I attempt to download a zipped CSV file in Firefox, the usual pop-up window appears asking what Firefox should do with this file... even after I select "Open with" and choose my Zip File Manager and tick the box that says "Do this automatically for files like this from now on", this pop-up continues to appear every time I come to download files

    @Corel
    Thanks, I had forgotten all about potential server side problems.
    @Conners81 <br/>
    If sample problem files and links are publicly available maybe you could include an example of the link being used, preferably to one of the smaller simpler files.
    *What is the website you are using?
    For comparison an example you may like to try
    * site providing .csv data [http://www.ofcom.org.uk/static/cmr-10/WAL-3.4.html]
    ** a small few lines csv download file [http://www.ofcom.org.uk/static/cmr-10/csv/WAL-3.4.csv]
    ** similar info as a pdf chart [http://www.ofcom.org.uk/static/cmr-10/pdfs/WAL-3.4.pdf]
    Of course you have the added complication of the zipped file.

  • Unable to run flex files in Firefox and Safari

    I created a flex program that loads an XML document. In short
    what I did is as follows:
    var XML_URL:String = "data/GetData.aspx?documentId=123";
    var XMLURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest (XML_URL);
    loader = new URLLoader(XMLURL);
    The document loads up perfectly fine ONLY in Internet
    Explorer, but it does not load up at all in Firefox and Safari.
    I was told it could be some sandbox rules problems. So i
    tried crossdomain.xml, but that didn't solve the problem either. I
    believe the problem should be something else.
    I always thought Flex/Flash is suppsoed tobe browser
    independent. Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Hey there,

    because the program works perfectly in IE.

  • Adobe Flash Player Update Crashes Firefox 34 on Mac OSX6.8..Suggestions?

    Kind of sad. All was working well last week. Now very little is.
    I have OSX6.8, Firefox 34.0.5 on iMac.
    Downloaded and installed Adobe Flash Update yesterday. It appeared to install okay but Firefox hung up (whirling globe of death) on an Adobe Tab and nothing could be accessed on Firefox.
    Ultimately had to uninstall Flash.  Still Firefox hanging up...wouldn't reset or safe start.  Ultimately had to trash Firefox app. and drag over an earlier version (19) from a back-up drive and let Firefox update itself overnight.
    Today I installed an earlier version of Flash 11.5.502 from an old saved installer.
    Firefox and tabs now open, but there are still many problems with accessing common websites, logging in, commenting, and watching videos.
    Anyone have any suggestions? Can Adobe/Firefox get together on this problem??
    I am stuck on OSX6.8 due to regular and necessary use of Rosetta. I really liked the way everything worked prior to this latest Flash Update nonsense.

    Thanks for getting back. Yes, as I mentioned, I did uninstall all other Flash Players and restarted because I had read about that tip. I also tried downloading it from the .pkg and no luck there. Also from Safari instead of from Firefox. Is this Flash Player 10.3.183.7 a stand-alone plug in or is it an update to one I should already have? Also, what is the Flash Player Debugger for. I am a mac OS 10.6.8, intel based. Any other suggestions are appreciated.
