QT Uncompressed files display with White Screen

I'm stumped.
I have a few QT files that are uncompressed 8 bit. On my new 8 Core Intel Mac, a G5, and a Mac Mini I can see this file just fine. We're running 10.4.9 and QT 7.1.6. The Mac Minis and G5 are bare bones and have no codecs listed in the Library/Quicktime folder except Apple Intermediate (default).
On all of my Intel XServes however, with the exact same installed universal binary QT codecs as my 8 Core, these same QT uncompressed files only display a white screen. In get info the codec is listed as Uncompressed 8bit 4:2:2. Last time I checked Uncompressed didn't even require a codec.
Any ideas why the XServes can't read these QTs? I've even updated the QT to 7.2 hoping there was an Intel bug, but that didn't fix this.
Thanks!

There is no single codec for movies that have .avi extensions. AVI is a container format, not a specific type of file. An AVI movie may use one of the Indeo codecs (there are at least four that I'm aware of, none of which have been ported to Mac OS X) or one of the various flavors of DivX, among other possibilities. You'll have to find out what codec was used for the movies you want to view to determine what you need. Note that not all codecs for the various .avi movies are available for QuickTime.
If you want to try "hit and miss", you can try the codecs at http://www.divx.com/ and http://www.3ivx.com/ and see if one of them will work for you. You can also give this player a try:

  • My phone keeps displaying a white screen with the apple, then occasionally flicks to a blue screen, but won't turn on! HELP!!

    My phone keeps displaying a white screen with the apple, then occasionally flicks to a blue screen, but won't turn on! HELP!! I have had it on charge all day and have tried plugging it in to my computer to sync.

    Restore your software using iTunes.
    Turn your device off and connect your cable to the computer, but not the device just yet. Start up iTunes. Now, hold down the home button on your device and plug it in to the cable - don't let go of the button until iTunes tells you it's detected a device in recovery mode. Now you can restore to factory settings.
    You should be able to restore your backup file after this procedure. If the problem comes back, you either have corruption in your backup file, or a serious hardware problem that should be looked at by a tech at the Genius Bar (make an appointment first).

  • Iphone 3gs shutdowns random, it fails to turn on, it displays a white screen with colors lines

    I have an iPhone 3GS. It It shutdowns random, it fails to turn on, it displays a white screen with colors lines.

    I have the 3GS and it recently started the RSD.  At first I thought it was just the batter not holding a charge and being lower than what the display showed.  However, even when fully charged the RSD's occur mostly when loading either Apps or web pages in Safari.
    I have not experienced the white screen and colored line, yet apparently.  Is this the logic board like in the MacBook's?

  • My iPhone 3G is suddenly displaying a white screen... otherwise, it's unresponsive.

    My iPhone 3G is suddenly displaying a white screen... otherwise, it's unresponsive.  I can't turn it off/on.  It just charged all night and the alarm woke me up.  I updated my contacts, check my email, then the white screen.  I'd appreciate help with this.  Thx.

    My problem has been resolved thanks to suggestions!  :-)  I first tried to reboot by simultaneously holding the power and home buttons.  That didn't work initially so, I tried the second suggestion which was to resync from iTunes.  After that, the white screen went away but, the iPhone was completely dark and unresponsive.  I then tried the reboot again and this time, it worked!  Thanks again for the help!  :-)

  • TS3274 words w/friends has frozen up and displays a white screen.

    words with friends froze up after a play and displays a white screen.  Other apps working ok.

    See if you can force quit the app. Double tap the home button. Flick sideways if needed to get the preview up on your screen. Flick that preview up and off the screen then single tap the home button to exit the mode. Then try your app again.

  • Apple Hardware Test Stuck with white screen

    hy every one..............

    also inserted application cd....
    apple logo appear and after some time with spinning wheel it stuck with white screen....What that means
    please help me out....
    what can i do???

    If you are still using Snow Leopard -
    Shut down your computer and disconnect all peripherals (keyboard & mouse if pertinent) from your computer.  Now reboot.
    If the Mac starts up normally, shut it down again and then plug in one of the peripherals (keyboard or mouse first) and start up your computer again.  If it does so successfully repeat the process, adding one peripheral at a time until your Mac acts up.  At that point, disconnect the last peripheral you added, reboot your Mac and search the peripheral vendor's website for an updated driver. 
    If no driver exists or the problem remain after installing the new driver, try a different cable or a different port on your Mac.
    If none of the above works, again disconnect all peripherals from your Mac, hold down the "shift" key to start up in "Safe Boot" mode. 
    If the Mac starts up correctly, restart without pressing the "shift" key.
    If your computer still does not start up properly, shut it down and restart it while holding down the Apple+Option-P-R keys; keep holding "all 4 keys" down until you hear the startup sound "twice."
    If none of the above work Disconnect all peripherals from your computer. Boot from your install disc & run Repair Disk from the utility menu. To use the Install Mac OS X disc, insert the disc, and restart your computer while holding down the C key as it starts up.
    Select your language.
    Once on the desktop, select Utility in the menu bar.
    Select Disk Utility.
    Select the disk or volume in the list of disks and volumes, and then click First Aid.
    Click Repair Disk.
    (If Disk Utility cannot repair, you will need a stronger utility (3rd party) - Diskwarrior or Techtool PRO)
    Restart your computer when done.
    Repair permissions after you reach the desktop-http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25751 and restart your computer.
    Remove any 3rd party ram.
    Reinstall Snow Leopard - This will install a "fresh" copy of Snow Leopard without archiving old system files but leaves the rest of your files in place.
    If your computer is still under warranty or you have Apple Care, take full advantage of it by letting tech support deal with your problems.  It's what you're paying them for.
    Out of warranty - take the computer to an Apple store or an AASP.  Whichever is more convenient for you.

  • NOKIA C3-01 is displaying a white screen when turn...

    Its been almost a year since I bought my nokia c3 from saudi arabia. Yesterday my phone was working fine, left it on table and when i came back to check it. it went beserk with white screen; although i kept hearing msgs and emails being received. I turned it off immediately and took out the memory card, willing it might work. I turned it on again but no changes just white screen.It gave me the beeping sound that i know to enter the phone code. After i entered it, it started with nokia welcome soundtrack but only gave me a white screen. Is it a software or hardware problem? I kept reading about ways to solve it but with no success. Plz note that my last backup was on 26 june 2012 and many info where stored in last 15 days. So i dnt wanna lose data. Also a similar problem occured two month after i bought it, but then it gave me it needed a software update. I did the update and everything worked fine. Also two weeks ago, my phone fell in water but it was turned off. I dried it without the battery for 3 days, turned it on, and it worked normally. I need an immediate help plzz its a plead for a lifeline. I just cant do any troubleshooting or update bcz  i need to see whats on screen instead of blank white.
    thanks in advance,

    Hi Almach89, 
    Welcome to Nokia discussions board! 
    We are sorry for the inconvenience. I advise yout to try and back up your data with Nokia Suite. If you do not have it installed on your PC yet, you may do so with this link. 
    Then connect your device to it and go to Tools > Back up. Also go to Synchronise > Synchronise now > All. Once the sync is completed, check the different tabs to see if the data has been correctly synced. If this is successful, your data will now be safe (please use your own judgement).
    You may update your device from the updates tab to see if that fixes the screen issue. 
    Alternatively, please take your device to your nearest Nokia Care Point or call your Local Careline, please find the details via this link. 
    Feel free to post any other questions you may have. 
    Regards,

    jpg and pdf formats don't support transparency. You need to use a format such as tif, png or psd that does.

  • My ihone only displays a white screen and I want to fix it myself.

    my iphone will only display a white screen can I fix it and how can I?

    At this point, you probably be better off saving up for and purchasing a new one. Apple will not help you since you opened the iPod up.  A third party repair company may be able to help but the cost will likely be near the cost of buying a new Nano.

  • TS1702 only coming up with white screen

    my ipod touch 2nd generation 32gb only coming up with white screen. i could hear the click that we hear when the ipod or iphone makes when it get started. then the white screen goes off.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • My itouch will only display a white screen, is this fixable? help!

    My i touch was working absoluty normally, then one day it would only display a white screen. I can still see it on my computer however it is showing that the memory has been wiped. I tried to restore it to its original settings, but it still displays the same white screen. I have drained the battery fully, and tried holding the buttons down for 10 seconds. Nothing is working and im now confused. Can anyone advise me please? thank you.

    When restoring an iPod to factory defaults/new iPOd does not solve a proble it is most likely due to a hardware problem.  I would make an appointment a the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
