Quick Time opens internet.wmv files as text files

I'm trying to open internet video files that are generally .wmv files. Quick time does not open them, rather they open in a text format. Ideas? Thanks!

As the above poster said, you can download Windows Media Player for Mac to view .wmv files, or you can use my preferred method. Although it will cost you $9.99, you can download Flip4Mac's WMV Player. This is a Quicktime Codec that allows you to watch .wmv media within Quicktime and within your browser ending up as a complete media solution. You don't need two different applications.
Hope this helps,
Ryan.

I am having problems exporting my time lapses from quick time pro i need to save my files as photo jpegs but the standard video compression window will not open fully,

i am having problems exporting my time lapses from quick time pro i need to save my files as photo jpegs but the standard video compression window will not open fully, it just keeps my mac (old 1.6Ghz 2.5 GB sdram G5 still good for most stuff i need) spinning for ever but i can see compression type H.264 selected and the other setting but i can not select any other options as it still thinking but never opens! why is this happening how do i get round it?
my work flow is: 300 images shot on a 5d mark II medium jpegs opened in Light Room cropped to 16:9 then exported and opened in quick time i can save a .mov H264 giving me files sizes of 14 mb for a 16 second time lapse, mp4 9 mb. the only way i can get large files is saving as a self contained movie then i get 300mb files.
i need to save my files 1920 x 1080 photo jpeg codec as i want HD quality.
i am sure there is a simple way round this?
thanks guys!

It is very difficult to offer troubleshooting suggestions when the "os version" you are using is unknown as each os has their own troubleshooting solutions.

Quick time player require codec to play avi files , where can i download it free

quick time player require codec to play avi files , where can i download it free?

Try installing Perian. AVI is a container, not a format, and no single component can open all AVIs.

I just downloaded iOS 6 on my iPhone 4 and now can no longer open internet links that were texted to me. Anyone else having the same problem?

I just downloaded iOS 6 on my iPhone 4 and now can no longer open internet links that were texted to me. Anyone else having the same problem or know how to fix this?

The SMS links thing is highly annoying. You don't have to copy/paste however. You should see an icon like this: (>) to the right of the text bubble with the link. Tap on that, the in the screen that opens, tap "Visit".
Alternatively, you can tap twice directly on the link, then hold your finger down after the second tap.
Still unnecessarily difficult, but not as bad as copy/paste.
What I don't get is why can't I find any mention of this change or how to fix it (if even possible) elsewhere online?

Hi,
In the documentation for the saveAs function it has the following params
cPath The device-independent path in which to save the file.
cConvID (optional, Acrobat 6.0) A conversion ID string that specifies the conversion
file type.
cFS (optional, Acrobat 7.0) A string that specifies the source file system name.
bCopy (optional, Acrobat 7.0) A Boolean value which, if true, saves the PDF file
as a copy. The default is false.
bPromptToOverwrite (optional, Acrobat 7.0) A Boolean value which, if true, prompts the user if
the destination file already exists. The default is false.
In order to get a text file saved you need to specify the correct cConvID.
See the documentation for the valid convID's - http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/10/Acrobat10_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.519.html
Please note the Acrobat SDK contains all the information and does not require much installing ( as it is a zip file(on windows) and a disc image (on Mac) it just needs extracted)

Hi
You could use OLE to integrate SAP with Excel - create files, execute macros etc. (search for DOI on SAP help), but this will only work on the presentation server, so you couldn't run it as a service in background. I suppose your e-mails are sent through the internet, hence the requirement for encryption -- or maybe your client doesn't trust its network people! For this you really should use strong encryption -- anything less, you might as well send plain text. One solution to this would be to send the email down a VPDN -- this would encrypt all traffic between source and destination. Another would be to encrypt the file just before it is attached to the email. This could be done within ABAP, but perhaps a third party public key encryptor would be better placed. This could be invoked via a system command call, or as an RFC. A third solution would be to have your mail server handle the encryption.
Heres the link for the above explaination

How to make the Open/Save dialogue download the text file instead of JSP

I am currently coding on a JSP program, which searches the database and writes the resultset into a file on the server, and then allows the client to download this tab delimited text file onto their local machine. But I met a problem, when the default Open or Save dialogue appears, it shows that it's trying to download the running JSP file from my local host instead of the newly-created text file. Despite this, when I click OK to either Open or Save the file, a warning dialogue will appear saying: The explorer cann't download this file, it's unable to find this internet site or something like that. I get no error message from the server but I was always told that Javax.servlet.ServletException: getWriter() was already called. What does this mean?
I guess maybe this is caused by the mix use of outputStreams in my program. I don't know if there is a way to directly read the resultset from the database and then send it through outputStream to the client. My solution is: first create a file on the server to hold the resultset, and then output this file to the client. I did all these in one JSP program: Create file on the server, search database, and then read file and output the contents to client. Is this correct? I attached my code, please feel free to correct any of my mistake? Thanks!

Thanks. I believe something wrong with this statement
in my program:
You are correct there is something wrong with this statement. Seeing how you are doing this in a jsp, not really what they're made for but thats another topic, the output stream has already been called. When a jsp gets compiled it creates a few implicit objects, one of them being the outputstream out, and it does this by calling the response.getWriter(). getWriter or getOutputStream can only be called once, other wise you will get the exception you are experiencing. This is for both methods as well, seeing how the jsp compiles and calls getWriter means that you cannot call getOutputStream. Calling one makes the other throw the exception if called as well. As far as the filename problem in the browser goes I'm guessing that it's in IE. I've had some problems before when I had to send files to the browser through a servlet and remember having to set an inline attribute of some sort in the content-dis header inorder to get IE to see the real filename. The best way to solve this is to get the orielly file package and use that. It is very easy to use and understand and does all of this for you already. Plus it's free. Cant beat that.
ServletOutputStream outs =
response.getOutputStream();
because I put a lot of printout statement within my
code, and the program stops to print out exactly
before the above statement. And then I get the
following message, which repeats several times:
ServletExec: caught exception -
javax.servlet.ServletException: getWriter() was
already called.

Quick time v.7.1.3 play mpeg files without sound

From day to an other day, I dont know why, but quick time stop to produce sound and it is affect too the player of Itunes. It is the same effect for all my mpeg files.
My mpeg, codec MPEG1 muxed, files look ok because mplayer OSX play them correctly.

Hi! I'm having a similar issue. Also on QT 7.1.3 and the latest Flip4WMV, all of the sudden a couple of days ago I lost audio on my MPEG files. In addition, when the video first starts, it pauses for 0.5-2s and then starts playing. The audio indicators at the bottom show a quick spike and then nothing.
I opened the Audio MIDI Setup and under the Audio Output section is says Output Is Not Supported! I also tried the Garageband trick and it does not work.
WMV and MP4 video play just fine. It's only regular MPEG files (I assume MPEG-1 and MPEG-2). And all my files play just fine in VLC and MPlayer2.
Any help would be appreciated.
TIA
Curt

How can I open in java file a text file?

Hi !
For example I have a java file name Pencil.java and I have a text fie name Box.txt
I want like that if ( a == b ) {open Box.txt}
How can I do that ?
Thanks.

Yes I want to see what this text file contains. Like clicking to a text file with mouse and opens. Then I can see what it contains.
I have a Java document Pencil.java and I have a text file Box.txt
I will write a java code in pencil.java ( that I dont know ). Then when I enter a number from keyboard with
Scanner write = new Scanner(System.in);
int a = write.nextInt()
if (a == b) { } opens Box.txt
For example
I write to command prompt
java pencil
It wants from me a number : I will enter 3.
It is same as b .
Then Box.txt file opens.

Quick Time (Mountain Lion) won't play .AVI files.

Since all of you probably already know the information I typed in the headtitle, I have a question. So obviously .avi files can not be played on this version of Quick Time that comes with Mountain Lion, but, would buying a Quick Time Pro solve my problem? I'm ready to pay 30$ for the program, but first I'd like to know would it enable me to play .avi and all sorts of other video files? Ofcourse I read it does play all sorts of files including .avi, but I'd like to hear it from somebody who actually uses Quick Time Pro on Mountain Lion. Thanks for your help in advance!
Dino Sertovic
P.S. I already have tried VLC, I use it but that's not the solution I'm asking for. Nor that, nor other programs such as MplayerX. I'm interested only in Quick Time while it never breaks, deinterlaces my footy nice and is very simple and user friendly.

You don't need to buy Quick Time Pro. Quick Time Pro is just a paid add-on to add features to QuickTime Player 7. You don't need the Pro features for just playing. The player in your Applications folder is Quick Time X. QuickTime Player 7 should be in your Utilities folder (which is inside yoir Aplicatioins folder). If it's not there, download it from:
<http://support.apple.com/kb/DL923>
QuickTime Player 7 will play .AVI files if you install Perian
<http://perian.org>
then replace its A52 codec component

Quick Time , opens but crashes

On my computer, are installed the following programs that appear in the Control Panel:
Apple Application Support ver 1.3.2
Apple Application Support ver 1.4.1
Apple Mobile Device Support ver 2.5.1.3
AppleSoftware Update ver 2.1.1.116.
The Quick Time does not appear in Control Panel, but appears on the scroll bar, opens but crashes.
I use Windows 7 Ultimate.
When I try to uninstall or reinstall the programs through Control Panel, the following message appears:
Could not open key.

Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel.
Would someone help me?

Apple Application Support ver 1.3.2
Apple Application Support ver 1.4.1
Doublechecking ... (I wasn't quite clear on this from your post.) Are you able to uninstall the version 1.3.2? (That should have been uninstalled automatically when your 1.4.1 was installed.)

How to convert Labview log file to text file?

I want to open the log file in Excel or other text editor. Is there any special format of Labview log file? I thought it just binary, so I used a general program to convert binary file to Ascii file. But it failed because of the format of the log file format. Is there any other way that I can read log file in Excel? Thanks a lot.

Dennis Knutson wrote:
Are you refering to the front panel logging option? The actual binary format is going to depend on what controls and indicators you have on the front panel and their data types. There is an example of using the file i/o functions to read one of these files in chapter 14 of the user manual. The problem you'll have if you write a program to read a log file is that every time you add or delete a control/indicator, you'll have to rewrite your program and then you'll be unable to read older log files. You'd be better off writing your own log routines. Then you would control the binary format. There are shipping examples that you can look at for fbinary file storage.
Yes, I am referring the front panel logging option and I will read the maual first. Thank you very much for your help.
