Quicktime error -50  failure

hello all..i searched the boards and cant find an answer. i have produced some videos in FCP (6.0.6) and exported as a quicktime (7.6.4) self contained movie. I then opened compressor (3.0.5) and summitted 2 jobs as: +Name: H.264 for Apple TV Description: H.264 1280x720 video @ 5Mbps, progressive. Audio is 44.1 kHz, stereo File Extension: m4v+ and +Name: H.264 for iPod video and iPhone 640x480 Description: H.264 video @ 1500 kbps, progressive, multi-pass. Audio is 44.1 kHz, stereo File Extension: m4v+. I keep getting an error: quicktime -50 error. What am i doing wrong? last week i did the exact same job type with quicktime movies and no problems, now, problems! thanks in advance.

OK, thanks Tom. I didn't know this even existed until now. This thread is for a friend, so I'll let you know if your suggestion helps.

  • Export To YouTube - Quicktime Error -50

    While I have exported this project for YouTube via Share, I had to make some additional edits = Re-shooting two smalls pieces of footage. Now when I try to export via the Share option in FCP-7, somewhere in the conversion, the exporting stops and I get the following Quicktime Error:
    Share Failure
    Quicktime Error -50
    The YouTube conversion stops at that point. I did upgrade to 10.6.8. I have never come across this error before. Anyone have an idea what is going on??
    Thanks!!
    Sky.

    Thanks!! As it turns out, after reading many comments on the Creative Cow, I tried a couple things first before trying your suggestion (which was also recommended on the Creative Cow site). Since I had just updated to 10.6.8 I repaired permissions. I also checked all the clips in the sequence since I did a lot of coping and pasting. Turns out the two new clips I added i accidently pasted some filters two or three times. After deleting the duplicate filers, the was able to export just fine. I suspect the added filters caused the issue with Quicktime.
    Thanks again for your help!!

  • QuickTime Installation Error 1905 - failure to unregister

    I got the following errors when installing QuickTime:
    "Error 1905.Module C:\Program Files\QuickTime\QTOControl.dll failed to unregister. HRESULT-(a number). Contact your support personnel."
    Three more errors were the same, but listed QTOLibrary.dll, QTUIPanelControl.dll, and QTSystem\QuickTimeCheck.oxc as failing to unregister. My operating system is XP.
    Suggestions to fix these errors, or a way to contact support personnel?
    Thank you.

    Hi Dee Gee, I got the same error when downloading itunes from the Apple site. When I called Apple support they tried to sell me a support package.
    I thought I had deleted all of quicktime (i hate quicktime) from my PC, but I was wrong.
    Have you heard what this error message means??

  • Quicktime "plug-in failure" in safari 8.0.5

    I have OS X Yosemite 10.10.3 and get a quicktime "plug-in failure" in safari 8.0.5 when playing mov files at http://www.time-science.com/timescience/timelapse.asp

    So it's something unique to my setup
    I wonder how to fix it.
    Tried uninstalling adobe flash, restarting and reinstalling as I noticed that idea in some web searching
    This is what I get for the "Flowers":
    Sorenson Video 3 is a legacy codec that is only passively supported under Yosemite. QT 7 and the QT browser plug-in can still play this content. However, QT 7 Pro can only export to this compression format if the codec is turned back on by the user. (I.e., active QT export support of the "legacy" codecs was turned off under Lion.) Further, Sorenson Video 3 is neither QT X or QL "playback" compatible but can be converted natively by QT Player v10.4 if desired.
    Not sure if your error message is supposed to indicate that the QT browser plug-in is missing or is simply corrupted. Problem could also be in the way the web site is coded to play the files but I am not a site programmer so it would do me little good to examine the code use. On the other hand, I do already have a "Test" web site set up for a user trying to get his files to play in an older version of Safari so I added test pages for the Sorenson files from the site you referenced. See if you can play them from my alternate test pages. If they play there, then the problem may be site, otherwise, if they still don't play, you may need to reinstall the browser software.

  • In attempt to burn blu-ray, I get QuickTime error 0.  Takes hours to export a 7 minute movie from timeline, then get notice it fails.  What's going on here?

    New problem just started 24 hours ago.  When I try to export from the time line to create a QuickTime file, a 7 minute movie on time line takes 3 hours to export and then the export fails, where as a few days ago, that export would take about 10 minutes at most.  I get the same failure notice when I try to share to blu-ray, DVD, or Vimeo.  Tried to use compressor, no such luck as compressor failed to make a .mov file.  I get QuickTime error 0 message about 5 minutes into trying to share to Blu-Ray now.   Does anyone know what is going on here?  I'm running latest update of Snow Leopard on an intel Mac Pro and the latest update to Final Cut Pro X.  I've also installed QT 7.6.6 to use in creating time lapse movie files.

    Same problem here, too. Final Cut Pro X 10.0.3 on OS 10.6.8. However, it is only doing it on ONE of my projects. A 4-second test project burned successfully.
    I'm  actually going to use iDVD to burn copies for a few people, so I only need the movie file from FCPX.
    Would someone please post best export settings for use on a DVD? In FCPX, the project is  in HD (1080p) with all media optimized to ProRes 442. I know it will have to be down-sampled to DVD resolution, but I've always been curious to know what settings will result produce the best possible quality in DVD resolution.
    Thank you!

  • Compressor 2 - Quicktime error 0 revealed

    After upgrading to the latest version of QT, FCP5, DVDSP4, and Compressor 2 with all the latest fixes I could not compress a 1 hr 46 min video on my quad G5 without getting the dreaded quicktime 0 error message. I spent days trying to get around this and finally settled on getting the job done through DVDSP, (see my post "compressor 2 what works for me").
    I finally decided to track down the problem by spliting my project in half to see which half was failing. Then I spilt that half in two and so on for hours until I found the problem video. Turns out I had a "spin 3D" transition between a slow motion clip at 50% and a clip at regular speed. I added 1 sec of regular speed to the slo mo clip so the transition would fall between to clips at regular speed and the problem was solved. My 1hr 46 min video compressed in 3hrs 30 min. (still not as quick as the 1 hr 10 min from DVDSP4 but thats another story).
    Conclusion - "Quicktime error 0" seems to be Compressors way of saying "sorry this is too complex for me." I am sure there are other combinations of transitions, filters, etc. that will cause this problem as well so APPLE, IF YOU ARE READING THIS we need a fix.
    I will try more expirements but complexity in the time line seems to be the cause of compressors failure due to quicktime error 0.

    I am having the same issue. I have recently purchased quicktime pro and updated to lion, I dont know if that is that causes the failure but this *****! it's the 4rth time i try to compress a 15 minute file, it takes about 3 hours and when there is 10 minutes to go.... pooooof!!! game over!

  • Compressor error "QuickTime Error 0"

    I am trying to compress a 7 min. video using Final Cut Studio outputting directly to compressor, after about 45 min. of compressing I get the error message "Failure Quicktime Error 0"
    Settings: 2 pass VBR 6.7 - 7.2, 16 x 9
    This movie does have alot of transitions, effects etc.
    I am able to compress a Sorenson version for review.
    Any guidence would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you,
    James

    ...Some more info on this topic.
    I tried the same process on another G5 and got the same error so I don't think it's a machine specific related problem. I also tried rendering the video via Quicktime export uncompressed and got the error: FXScript Divide by 0. Now I think it must be one of my effects or several that is causing the problem.
    I am going to go back to previous versions of the project and see if I can render, then perhaps I can isolate the problem. I'll let you all know if I solve it. I have searched the threads and google but have only found more people with the problem and no solutions.
    Thanks,
    James

  • Quicktime Error -2045

    Hi everyone,
    I am trying to render a Motion 5 sequence in Final Cut Pro X (10.0.6).
    When I send the render to Compressor (4.0.5), it appears to render successfully with the CPU maxing out at 100% for a few minutes and disk activity occuring as it would use source files for rendering. My problem with this occurs a few more minutes into the render when my Share Monitor alerts me that "Quicktime Error -2045" has occured.
    Has anyone else experienced this problem?
    Thanks for your help.
    Andrew.

    I've never had this. Is this M5 sequence something you exported out of M5 and then imported into FCP? Could you export it as a movie out of FCP and then import that into Compressor?
    Kind of a vague explanation form Editcodes: Indicates failure to write a file properly (which you knew). Suggested actions (again from Editcodes) change the disk you're writing to; disable 3rd party plug-ins.

  • HT4714 i cant export my video to any of the destinations on my list.. it keeps saying QuickTime Error -50 what do i do cuz if i cant use it i want my money back

    i cant export my video into anything i keep getting a QuickTime Error -50

    Unfortunately, these boards have too many similar complaints.
    There are variety of things that seem to cause these exporting failures. Most seem to relate to corrupted clips. Here's a list of fixes that have worked to solve some of the reported problems.
    First it's worthwhile to trash preferences; use this app.
    Turn off Background Rendering.
    From within FCP, delete project render files and event render files. Select a short section and export without rendering. If it works, export the full project. If it doesn't work…
    Create a new project. Copy the old project and paste into the new project. Export a short test and if it exports. export the full project. If that doesn't work…
    Create a new user account.
    Good luck.

  • Mysterious Quicktime Error -50

    Just tried to do a compression (I took the standard 640x480 iTunes compression setting and turned on reverse telecine, for what it's worth) and got a failure with "Quicktime Error: -50"
    Needless to say, this microsoftian error message (absolutely accurate, and totally useless) refers to an error code that is unfindable either by google or searching on developer.apple.com.
    Suggestions?

    The error is usually because of something in your Final Cut sequence. Every time I have received this message it has been linked to a filter of some sort. Export a self-contained quicktime movie and then compress that instead of exporting directly from your timeline.
    Hope this helps.

  • Got Quicktime error: -50 when using compressor 3.0.5

    What is Quicktime error: -50? Can't find anything about it. please help.
    Thanks,
    Gina

    This thread suggests the problem is either an incompatible filter in the timeline that compressor doesn't process or using a two step transcode, i.e. HDV>ProRes>h.264, with the failure happening in the transcode from ProRes to h.264.
    EXACTLY what are you doing when this happens? Codec of source file(s) brought into Compressor, output file type, are the source self-contained or reference, where are the source files located and where are the output files being written?

  • FRM-41211 Integration error SSL failure

    Hello
    Environment Client/Server Developer 6i.
    i installed developer on a new clinet machine to rum my application. every thing is fine but when he tries to run any report the following error occured:-
    FRM-41211 Integrarion error SSL failure runing another product.
    and i have re-install the devloper but the error is stand.
    any solution?
    regards
    aaks

    As Petr said make sure you're reports25_tmp is set in your registry and that the directory exists AND you have the rights to write to that directory.
    You can also get this error if you try to issue a 2nd asynchronous run_product call to run a report and there is another one running. For this, Oracle has two 'solutions'.
    1) Do not run more then one asynchronous report per session
    or
    2) Use a delay loop before calling the next report.
    It's been my experience that #2 is worthless as, if it works, is doing pretty much the same thing as #1. I really hope this gets fixed (for good) at some point...somehow. <G>

And the report will not start.
    But if I press the button again, all will be fine.

    PLease help!!!!

    It is a bug in Forms 6i and possible workaround (from Metalink) is:
    WORKAROUND as follows :
    This brings up the Background Engine on startup and minimizes it.
    1. Create a shortcut for rwrbe60.exe and do a CTRL+C to copy it.
    2. Right click on the TASK BAR at the bottom of the screen and get the TASKBAR
    Properties box up.
