QuickTime stand alone not playing video, only audio

Am running QuickTime stand alone on my PC with Windows XP Home 2002. For some reason the .mov files that were created with my digital camera will not play video (only audio) on this computer. The files seem to play fine on other computers. Have also found out that I can play downloand or streamed videos (only audio).
Can't figure out why video won't play. Other video formats (.avi for example) play fine through Windows Player.
Any insight? . . . anyone?

Quicktime 10 will not play video, only audio

Hi -
I cannot get my .mov files (with codec that is DV/DVCPRO - NTSC, Integer (Little Endian)) to play video in Quicktime 10... it will only play audio. That said, my .avi files from my digital camera play fine. I am running Snow Leopard 10.6.4. Any thoughts?
Thanks!

Since I am paying extra for HBO you would think that HBO wouldn't care if I watched HBO To Go on my TV using Apple TV. What is the difference to them if I am watching on my phone, iPad, computer, or my TV. If this app did start working on Apple TV, then HBO might get more people to shell out the $15 for HBO. Maybe we should figure out who we can talk to at Apple? If this app starts working on Apple TV you would think more people would throw down the $99 for Apple TV.
it has nothing to do with apple.
the developers of the app and owners of the rights of the content are the only ones who can make it happen.

Quicktime not play video only Audio with Lion

I am trying to watch avi file through Quicktime the I only get audio and no video after Lion installed.
I downloaded Perian again
Whats the problem?

There seems to be an issue with the version of Quicktime X (10.1) in Lion and Perian version 1.2.3.
The are several options in terms of other media players (VLC, MPlayerX, RealPlayer [ugh…], and others…) that will handle FLV files with ease. Alternatively, you could run your video files through an encoder (HandBrake, MPEG Streamclip, SmartConverter, etc.) converting the files into something QuickTime naturally understands like an MP4 or MOV.
But, you were probably happy when everything just worked with the QuickTime / Perian dynamic duo and just want it the way it was. It seems the best way to make this happen, is to go back to using Perian 1.2.2, for the moment anyway. Seems to do the trick for anyone with this problem, so…
1. Remove Perian 1.2.3 from the system.
Quit all your apps, expecially QuickTime. Open System Preferences and click on Perian. You're looking for the "Remove Perian" button; just click and if it asks, type your password. Next, back to the main System Preferences screen where you right-click(or control-click) on the Perian icon. A menu pops up with the choice to remove the Preference Pane. Click on it and Perian is officially uninstalled.
2. Restart the computer
Probably overkill, but better than having to repeat the process because you didn't.
3. Download and install Perian 1.2.2
Get it here: http://perian.cachefly.net/Perian_1.2.2.dmg , or here:http://www.videohelp.com/download/Perian_1.2.2.dmg
Once its downloaded mount the disk image, but proceed with care. Perian will likley try to upgrade itself right after you install it. Best thing to do: disconnect from the net for the install process. Then as usual double-click the "Perian.prefpane" file, choose who you'd like to install it for, and enter your password as needed. Finally, right before reconnecting your machine to the world, uncheck the "Automatically Update" box in the Perian preferences.
Try testing one of the FLVs in QuickTime or QuickLook and with a bit of luck, radio becomes TV.
Oh… and on the off chance it doesn't work and you want to watch some FLVs? Use VLC (http://www.videolan.org), or convert them with HandBrake (http://handbrake.fr).
Good luck!

Drop Zone will not play video - only still frame

I have a generator template with drop zone, in and out.
When I select the video clip to use in the drop zone it shows as a still freeze frame - video does not play. Only the first frame displays.
This was a bug that Apple said is fixed in the last version... it is still a problem for me.
Anyone know about this?

Motion Template.
To quote FCPX 10.0.08 "Drop zones are no longer reset to the first frame of video after application restarts".... this is in the 'What's New' in the App store.
But if you use a drop zone in a generator template, FCPX only displays the first frame - no video. Many users reported this bug on the eearlier version. Some tried using a compound clip but this did not work for me. The bug is nto fixed.
I need to select a part of two different clips in the timeline on both sides of the template to ceate a transition - one ingoing and one outgoing.

ITunes after 10.8.3 combo update doesn't play video, only audio with a black screen

My iTunes has been randomly playing really old QuickTime files as I've had iTunes start in 32 bit mode. That worked for a while, but like I said, it has stopped working and iTunes is back to not playing older QT movie files. Fine.
Now, however, iTunes didn't play a PROTECTED file that I purchased from the iTunes store. I made sure my computer was authorized to play the file, the store said my computer was already authorized. iTunes plays the AUDIO of the selected video, but only shows a black window where the video should be playing. It did this for several videos. I was confused.
I restarted my computer and now iTunes is playing the file as it should. It is not however playing my MPG QuickTime movie files that it has played for years.
What is going on with the software? I've followed the threads telling me to remove Perian, remove, Filp4Mac, restart, run in 32-bit mode, etc and nothing is now working when those solutions worked just last week.
Any input about what I should try next would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Chad

Timeline won't play video, only audio

I just switched computers recently (windows 7 to Windows 7) and when I re-installed Premiere CS5.5 on my new computer the video in the timeline wouldn't play.
The timeline video box just shows a media offline graphic even after all the media was reconnected.
When I press play, the playhead moves, but it will only play the audio and only shows the media offline graphic for the video. I tested a few of the clips to see if they'd play in the source monitor, and all of them played fine. It's just the timeline video window that won't play.
It started working yesterday for some reason I don't know, but when I reopened the program it was back to the same problem.
I've looked at a ton of posts, but none of them seem to have this same problem.

There are 2 main types of video in the project I'm editing: h.264 (MOV) from a Canon T3i DSLR, and MPEG-2 from an HDV Camcorder. None of the videos will play video in the timeline monitor, but the playhead moves and the audio plays (the video just shows a media offline graphic, although all the media is connected). All videos will play in the source monitor regardless of codec. This leads me to believe that codec issues are not the problem.
Graphics Card: NVIDIA Geforce GT 620
Graphics Driver Version: 9.18.13.3788
I have updated to the latest nvidia driver in the past week. There was another thread similar to my problem (http://forums.creativecow.net/thread/205/874787) where the guy figured out it was because he had 2 graphics cards, and that his timeline monitor was running off the wrong one. However, his description of what he did to fix it was not very clear, or at least not for my amount of knowledge.
There was another thread where someone said to downgrade to an older driver, and that didn't work either. here's a
screenshot of what it looks like when I play a video in the timeline:

Clips not showing Video, Only Audio on FCP X

I'm working on a video on Final Cut Pro X and am still rusty on it compared to the previous verisons. I have several clips I have to put together into a longer video. However when I try to put the clips onto the timeline, I only get the audio portion, not the video portion.
I tried importing the clips again after deleting them from the project, still the same issue. The clips are playable through Quicktime and also in the FCPX's preview window.
I was messing around with some shortcut keys earlier today, picking some tricks up so I think I might have pressed something that somehow disabled the video from showing up, leaving only the audio portion.

Quicktime player does not play video clip on desktop but plays in iPhoto

QuickTime player opens the video clip but the screen remains blank and no sound either. What am I doing wrong? It plays perfectly well in iPhoto.

Do they not play in iTunes?
They should play in VLC:

ITunes treats video's as audio files, won't play video only audio

Hi,
I have the latest iTunes version & the latest OS X lion updates. Late 2009 27" iMac, intel core duo 2, 3.06 ghz. Forgive me if this comes across as rude, I'm used to being able to find my own solution to problems, and this has been frustrating me on and off for years. For as long as iTunes has had music video's and air play available I have the problem of my music videos, movies or video files of any type (all purchased for iTunes store) will only play the audio, no video. The old work around was to disable 'look for remote speakers' and then the video's would play fine (i googled it again to make sure there wasn't a newer work around). However that is not an option now, as iTunes automatically looks for airtunes speakers. The only work around I have found is to disable my network connection in system preferences, then go to iTunes, tell it to try and connect to the remote speakers. Once it fails to find the speakers, all video files work perfectly. Once the network is re-enabled its a 50-50 shot that the fix will work for a while before the problem returns. I have had this problem in pretty much every version of iTunes sense they released music videos. It's not a constant problem either, sometimes videos play fine, most of the time they don't without the workaround. (the problem was present in Snow leopard, leopard and I want to say Tiger, but its hard to remember about Tiger.) I have submitted this problem in the 'submit feedback for iTunes' several times and nothing. I am hoping one of you smart people out there might have an idea for a permanent fix. I wanted to send an email to apple support, but they say I must purchase support because my hardware is 'out of warranty' even though its a software problem, so they are no help. Any help or suggestions you may have are extremely appreciated.
Thank you,

my apple tv will only play audio from my i pad2, i have the icon and select apple tv, the sound transfers but the video remains on my i pad2.
it used to work,
hope someone can help cheers

Websites and third party Apps need enabling before they will allow AirPlay of Video content. Some Website/App developers have not enabled their products, some simply haven't got around to it yet, others have stated that they won't be enabling AirPlay (likely as a result of licensing issues).
I have created a User Tip to list Apps that have been tested with Video Airplay, if you have any Apps that you have tested please leave details in the comments at the bottom of the User Tip or email me if you don't have commenting privileges.

Quicktime 7.2 not playing videos on Apple site

When I try to play the video on the Apple site about Leopard or the one about iLife, it plays a couple of seconds and then freezes up. If I click the arrow to start it again, it goes back to the beginning of the clip, plays and freezes again. I have the latest updates for Quicktime 7.2 on my Mac Mini which is running OS 10.3.9. Any ideas?
Thanks.

This could be normal. Basically these are fast-start downloads from the web site. If it is a busy time of the day (Internet usage wise), your connection may be downloading data at a slower data rate than the player is playing the data. If this is the case, simply try a smaller version of the movie which plays at a lower data rate and which your connection may be able to keep up with or try watching when there is less traffic. Normally, if you touch nothing, the player will reset the size of the buffer needed and automatically restart playing when enough data has been cached to memory.

Airplay no longer plays video (only audio)

All was well for the last few months between airplay and my Ipad 2 until this morning when all of a sudden I annot stream video from any app between my Ipad 2 and Apple TV. I have noted a few other users having the same problem in the last few hours. I have tried resetting the Apple TV and no luck.

As Airplay works with your local network and there haven't been any recent updates that could affect Airplay, reports of others having similar issues are likely coincidental. In addition to your Apple TV try restarting the iPad and your router.

On what computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 13 running? Have you updated 13 to 13.1 yet using an opened project's Help Menu/Updates?
If not, please do so.
You have not given us enough information with which to help you.
What are the properties of your source file that is presenting in the project with audio but no video?
Quickest way to gain that information is from brand/model/settings of the camera that recorded the video.
I am looking for
video compression
audio compression
frame size
frame rate
interlaced or progressive
file extension
pixel aspect ratio
What does the file's thumbnail look like in Project Assets after it is imported....thumbnail with no image (gray), thumbnail with only an audio icon
within it, or other? On the Timeline, what do you see represented in Video 1....nothing as opposed to Audio 1 where you see the audio portion of
the file?
Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer along with Premiere Elements 13/13.1? Are you running the programs as
administrator?
Is your video card/graphics card driver version up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of the card?
Let us start here. Based on your reply details, we will customize troubleshooting strategy for you.
