Quicktime doesn't show last frame of mpeg4 movies

Why can't I see the last frame of a small mpeg4 videoloop in quicktime (w276 h276 30fr/s 11 frames)? The frame does exist when opening the file in editingsoftware.

mpeg4 video is not frame accurate
if you created this video add a few seconds of black to the end

Missing last frame of my movie when compressor makes QT movie???

Hello again everyone,
I was compressing movies just fine, trying to figure out what is best compression for my movie when all of a sudden compressor made my last frame of my movie disappear! It shows it in the preview window but not in the batch window preview, and not when it actually compresses. Do I have to re-capture, or add a frame in FCP one frame more to compensate???
Anyone...

Thanks for your response.
Forgive me, please, but what is ide?
I guess I should retrace steps a bit.
I created an fla of my primary clip. It's actually 1428 frames.
The last frame has the action: gotoAndPlay("loop start"); (I forgot I'd changed the frame number to a label)
Frame 290 on this fla timeline has the frame label: loop start
It works as expected when exported as .swf.
When I put the primary movie .swf inside of the preloader movie clip's .fla on the third frame of the content layer, and export that .fla as an .swf, that's when I notice the actionscript of the primary movie clip is gone.
Am I right in believing you can nest .swfs and keep actions?
Thank you again for your assistance.

IPhone 5 is in lost mode but doesn't show last known location

HI there. My iPhone 5 was stolen a couple of weeks ago and it finally got put into Lost mode today. The problem is that it doesn't show the last known location of the phone! I thought it had to since it had to connect to get online to get put in Lost mode and to show location? Any help?

Hello townout
It all depends on the situation, but if it entered into Lost Mode for only a brief moment, then your iPhone may have gone offline after that and will not show a location. The phone would still need to be connected to either a cellular network or Wi-Fi network to be tracked.
iCloud: Use Lost Mode

Show last frame in sequence

Hi there!
Does anyone know if there's an option to display the last frame of a sequence rather than black? I'm so used to this coming from Avid and FCP.
I mean why display a black frame...?
Black is not very useful to cut to. I'd like to see the outgoing frame of the last clip in a sequence to have a better feel for choosing the right clip.
Or is this coming up in a next update maybe...?
Greetings Björn

Hi shooternz,
look at the image I posted. When at the end of sequence the last frame (of the prev clip) gets offset in Y a bit so you know you are really at the end of the seq.
Somehow this is making me grin a bit Since ever I worked for TV or as an editor this "seeing last frame of seq" is standard. Not a feature to ask for actually. It's like JKL, how come you're not familiar with that?
In case you think that being a strange behavior it is indeed a very professional one as it does so only(!) at the end of the sequence.
I just think it's too bad for such a brilliant app like PPro not to be as Pro as it could be.
Adobe PLEASE!!! at least as a selectable option.

Purchased Great Gatsby and it doesn't show up in my purchased movies, and it will only let me view the Extras.

I purchased the Great Gatsby, and when I say I want to play the movie now, it takes me to the Extras Preview but doesn't let me play the movie, and there is no play option anywhere. It also doesn't even show up in my purchased movies section. Any thoughts? I am able to download it to my computer, but I want to watch it on my tv, not my laptop.

I would report it to iTunes Store support - I think you are saying that you were able to play it via the Computers icon from your laptop - this mode does not support Extras (typical as that's how I'd use them but can't as you cannot download Extras to iTunes any more).
There are several examples of people trying to play movies from the cloud where the menu does not have the play option.

Quicktime doesn't show up

I just posted a website with a few Quicktime files. They do not show a thumbnail. I dragged them in after I "saved as" Quicktime for the web. It told me the files might be too big as I dropped them in the page. They are about 10-12 MGB. What am I doing wrong?

Hello, I'm not an expert (so I recommend to wait for one) but I kind of had the same trouble. I was exporting my files from iMovie HD so if that is your case, there you can manage the size of your movie using the Share option above then add them to your page.

Set Date and Time - 5 Week Month Doesn't Show Last Line

Hi all,
I'm working with Labview 9.0 (32-bit) on Windows 7 with a 125% system font size. When I open the Set Time and Date dialogue box, months with five lines of days cause the window to cut the last line in half. Is there any way to fix this? I've tried messing around with picktime.vi in [LabVIEW]\resource\dialog\, but it won't change the dialogue box (and I'm told that it's not supposed to?).
I can't upgrade to a new version (my company only recently upgraded to Labview 2009, and wants to keep it for stability reasons) and I can't change the system font size because 125% is the standard. Someone suggested changing the font sizes in Environment to be smaller, but I can't do that either - I need the current font size.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I don't think you are going to be able to.
You said you can't change the font size from 125%, that it is "the standard". Whose standard? The Normal setting for Windows is 96dpi.
I know I had problems in the past when we used an older NI program written in LabVIEW. Because we used it on a Laptop with a small screen, I wanted to have a larger Windows setting to make text readable. But it would cause problems because the layout of the front panel and location of buttons and such were based on a "normal" Windows setting. What would happen with a Large setting is that buttons would grow and start overlapping.
LabVIEW is a program where changes from the default Windows settings aren't often handled very well. If the Time/Date dialog is based on a LabVIEW VI like it appears to be, then I'm not surprised using a different setting will cause problems.

Quicktime Doesn't Show Me Web Page Movie Content

I need help setting preferences (if that's the problem) in Quicktime. I can't see movies on a lot of websites. On one site in particular, I know the webmaster and he says he knows it's running fine. Something is up with my QuickTime. It's never worked. Any help?
For example, the above mentioned site is:
http://www.edswurld.com/index.html
I can see the movie "Behold! The Pool Shot Take Two!" (it's preceeded by a big blue Q) but I can't see the movie "Pool Shot. Take One!" (a little blue lego with a question mark on it appears). This is not a pro site, but this problem occurs on pro and personal sites for me.
Thanks for your help!

Heather, welcome to these discussions.
The reason you can't view "Pool Shot. Take One" using your Tiger Mac is because the video uses Windows Media Player format (maybe not installed on your machine.)
Download WMP from the Microsoft Site. You'll also need Stuffit Expander (not included on a Tiger Mac) to "unstuff" the downloaded .sit file.
They should also work on reducing the "background" .mp3 file to a more Web page friendly size.
Your Mac is doing just as it should. Maybe they could make a better Web page (including notices about file formats and download links) for the media files.

.mov from HD vidcam doesn't show all frames in QT

Just bought an HD videocam with SD card storage. The movies import to my Mac in .MOV format. When I play them in QT Pro the sound is fine but the video is VERY choppy, freezing the image for several seconds at a time while the audio plays on.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Your G4 is probably too underpowered to play large HD files.
Instead of 1080 shoot at 720 (if available on your camera).

IWeb doesn't show JPEGs and PDFs after move to new computer.

I bought a new Mac mini (running OS X 10.8.2), moved all files from the old one, installed the most recent Domain.sites file from the old computer into the new computer's User/Library/Application Support/iWeb, but now iWeb opens with all embedded .jpg and .pdf files missing and a long list of "missing file" error messages appearing on startup. All of the .html, .png, .gif, .css and .js files appear to be working O.K. Everything in the "Sites" folder is unchanged since iWeb worked perfectly in the old computer. What can I do to fix this?

Version 1.1.2. I didn't realize until you asked and I checked, that iWeb has been discontinued and I must have transferred my version over from my old computer along with all the other applications. I see I can still buy an old CD version of iLife '09 from third-party vendors that includes iWeb '09, which is presumably version 3.0 and upgradable to 3.0.4 -- near as I can tell the last version before the program went out of production. Evidently iWeb 1.1.2 has compatibility issues with OS X Mountain Lion? I don't want to buy iWeb '09 (the other components of iLife '09 are useless, since 2012 versions were shipped with OS X 10.8) unless I can get some assurance it will work with my existing files. I have RapidWeaver 4.4.2 but I don't have time to recreate everything from scratch. It's frustrating that there's evidently no way to export all the work I've put into my iWeb website over the years into a form that can be edited using other web design software. Or is there? I bought RapidWeaver expecting to be able to open and edit my iWeb files. It's all HTML and JavaScript, isn't it? Why aren't all my files interchangeable between web design programs?

Sim Controller Doesn't show up anymore when testing movie

I am publishing an app on AIR for Android 3.2 in Flash Pro CS6. Everything was working fine, but then all of the sudden the Sim Controller stopped coming up when I test my movie.
The app makes pretty heavy use of the swipe feature, and without the sim controller I have to debug-publish to my phone every time which is quite annoying.
Has anyone else encountered this problem?

Bro come on, you are hijacking my thread!
Go to new-> discussion to ask a question.
But to answer your question, you can't just drag and drop things in the library list.
Try organizing them into folders to make it easier. Also, you pull out the library panel so that it's really wide you will see other columns. Click the heading of those columns, and you can sort everything by date modified or alphabetical by as linkage.
Did you use a decompiler or something? why are your movieclips numbers instead of names?

How do I loop back from the first frame to the last frame?

Hi there,
I'm currently working on the framework for a product viewer.
I have:
a movie clip called 'viewer_mc' which contains the images take from different angles of the product. The actionscript generates a script on the last frame of this that returns it to frame 1.
a button instance called 'autoplay_btn' which plays through the movie clip from whatever the current frame is, and stops on frame 1.
a left and right button which serve to move the movie clip frame, to give the appearance that the product is rotating.
I have succeeded in getting it to:
have the movie clip play through once, return to frame 1 and stop.
have the buttons return functions when held down, that move the frame in the movie clip using nextFrame and prevFrame commands. The right button successfully loops round to frame 1 and continues functioning to give the appearance of continual rotation.
The last problem I am experiencing is getting the left button to act in the corresponding manner, going from the first frame to the last and continuing to function.
Here is my actionscript so far:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
var lastFrame:Number = viewer_mc.totalFrames;
var thisFrame:Number = viewer_mc.currentFrame;
var backFrame:Number = viewer_mc.currentFrame-1;
1. This is the part that gets it to play through once before returning to the first frame. I think perhaps the problem I am experiencing is because of the 'viewer_mc.addFrameScript(lastFrame-1, toStart)' part i.e. although I'm holding the left button, its returning to this script and therefor getting bounced back immediately to the first frame. However, there is no flicker on the screen which you might expect if this were the case
Note - as this is a generic product viewer which I can use as a template I am using lastFrame etc. as opposed to typing the value in
function toStart (){
          viewer_mc.gotoAndStop(1);
viewer_mc.addFrameScript(lastFrame-1, toStart);
2. This is the functionality for the autoplay_btn that will play through a rotation / return the viewer to the initial (frontal) view of the product (frame 1).
autoplay_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, autoplay);
function autoplay (ev:MouseEvent):void{
          var startFrame:Number = viewer_mc.currentFrame;
          viewer_mc.gotoAndPlay(startFrame);
3. This is the functionality of the right button, which when held, moves the movie clip to the next frame via the 'rotateRight' function based on the 'nextFrame' command. It loops back round to the first frame due to the 'viewer_mc.addFrameScript(lastFrame-1, toStart)' script generated on the last frame of the movie clip, as is desired.
right_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, rightDown);
function rightDown(e:Event){
    stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,stoprightDown); //listen for mouse up on the stage, in case the finger/mouse moved off of the button accidentally when they release.
    addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,rotateRight); //while the mouse is down, run the tick function once every frame as per the project frame rate
function stoprightDown(e:Event):void {
    removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,rotateRight); //stop running the tick function every frame now that the mouse is up
    stage.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,stoprightDown); //remove the listener for mouse up
function rotateRight(e:Event):void {
    viewer_mc.nextFrame();
4. This is the functionality of the left button, which when held, moves the movie clip to the prev frame via the 'rotateRight' function based on the 'prevFrame' command. And this is where the problem lies, as although it works for getting the movieclip back to frame 1, it does not loop round to the last frame and continue functioning, as is wanted.
left_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, leftDown);
function leftDown(e:Event){
    stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,stopleftDown); //listen for mouse up on the stage, in case the finger/mouse moved off of the button accidentally when they release.
    addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,rotateLeft); //while the mouse is down, run the tick function once every frame as per the project frame rate
function stopleftDown(e:Event):void {
    removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,rotateLeft); //stop running the tick function every frame now that the mouse is up
    stage.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,stopleftDown); //remove the listener for mouse up
I'd imagine it is probably my logic for this part that is really letting me down - I can do a similar function in actionscript 2, but am trying to learn actionscript 3 just to move with the times as it were, and struggling a bit. Still this is only a few days in!
function rotateLeft(e:Event):void{
          if(thisFrame==1){
                    gotoAndStop(viewer_mc.totalFrames-1);
          } else{
          viewer_mc.prevFrame();
Any help you can give me would be gratefully received. For an example of the effect I am trying to achieve with the autoplay button etc. I recommend:
http://www.fender.com/basses/precision-bass/american-standard-precision-bass

Thanks for getting back to me.
Here's the code without my comments / explanations:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.events.Event;
var lastFrame:Number = viewer_mc.totalFrames;
var thisFrame:Number = viewer_mc.currentFrame;
var backFrame:Number = viewer_mc.currentFrame-1;
function toStart (){
          viewer_mc.gotoAndStop(1);
viewer_mc.addFrameScript(lastFrame-1, toStart);
//last image of viewer_mc = first image of viewer_mc
autoplay_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, autoplay);
function autoplay (ev:MouseEvent):void{
          var startFrame:Number = viewer_mc.currentFrame;
          viewer_mc.gotoAndPlay(startFrame);
right_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, rightDown);
function rightDown(e:Event){
    stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,stoprightDown); //listen for mouse up on the stage, in case the finger/mouse moved off of the button accidentally when they release.
    addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,rotateRight); //while the mouse is down, run the tick function once every frame as per the project frame rate
function stoprightDown(e:Event):void {
    removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,rotateRight); //stop running the tick function every frame now that the mouse is up
    stage.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,stoprightDown); //remove the listener for mouse up
function rotateRight(e:Event):void {
    viewer_mc.nextFrame();
left_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, leftDown);
function leftDown(e:Event){
    stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,stopleftDown); //listen for mouse up on the stage, in case the finger/mouse moved off of the button accidentally when they release.
    addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,rotateLeft);//while the mouse is down, run the tick function once every frame as per the project frame rate
function stopleftDown(e:Event):void {
    removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,rotateLeft); //stop running the tick function every frame now that the mouse is up
    stage.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,stopleftDown); //remove the listener for mouse up
function rotateLeft(e:Event):void{
          viewer_mc.prevFrame();
The definition of the rotateLeft function is where the problem lies I think - I've taken out my poor attempts at doing the logic from the previous post. If I were to write it out long-hand the statement I want to write is: 'If you get to frame 1 and function rotateLeft is called go to the end of the movie clip'.
The reason I have to use the viewer_mc.totalFrames-1 definition in the addFrameScript call is the addFrameScript function is 0 based i.e. if you want to call frame 1 of the movieclip you have to return a value of 0 in the addFrameScript (or such is my understanding of it anyway). As such, the last image in the movie clip will need to be the view obtained at 360 degree rotation, which is of course the same view as at 0 degree rotation. As a consequence, the last frame in the movie clip is superfluous for the user, but necessary for the overall effect to be achieved. And, in addition, to keep up the effect of a 360 degree view when the rotateLeft function is called it needs to skip that last frame to go to the lastFrame-1 (or totalframes-1), or in other words, the view of the image prior to completing the full 360 rotation.
the variables thisFrame and lastFrame are defined at the very top of the script. Like you said they might need to be defined or called on again elsewhere.

SWF files doesn't show in flash

I converted some videos into swf files. I opened them in flash player and they all look fine, but when I imported one in flash and put it in the scene the only thing visible was a small white circle, like the one that appears at the center of the objects when you select them. It couldn't be moved, it could barely be selected and it doesn't show up when testing the movie. I don't need to edit the video in flash, I just want to put it together with other elements, something similar to this http://mawichan.deviantart.com/art/Oban-WEB-PAGE-381429374
I have the suspicion that they don't work because they were not originally made in flash, since I have worked with swf files in flash before, but those were banners previously made in flash.
However I would like to hear the opinion and/or advice of someone who knows more than me, I am still a beginner.
Thank you.

video files should be played in flash using the flvplayback component (or using the netstream class), not converted to swfs. ie, create a fla, add an flvplayback component to your stage and, in the properties panel, assign the component's source to be your video file. (use a relative path.)

Purple bar showing on composite video on last frame

Hello, I've been struggling to know why this bar shows in the end of my video on its last frame. Although on export it doesn't show.

All right. It has been about 10 hours with no response. Maybe we ought to tell muhammad that the stupid purple bar at the end of the sequence is a completely unnecessary indication that he is at the end of the sequence. As if he didn't know that he was at the end of the sequence already. A nice black frame generally works pretty well to tell someone that they ran out of media.
