Still Cant Play MP4 Files

Hi
The first time I downloaded QT 7.4 , I couldnt play MP4 files in QT and FR. I then had to reinstalled QT 7.3 with Pacifist and it was all okay. Today I downloaded Version 7.4.5 (25) and the same problem cropped up! I thought Apple would have fixed it by now! Anyone else facing the problem? Before installing I had run permissions. I am on the latets verion of Tiger

What's the nature of the files that can't play? Do you hear the audio but can't see the video? Were they converted from .flv using TubeSock or iSqunt? If so, when you download the latest iSquint, it comes with the Debreaker app that fixes those files.
There are other solutions like using Pacifist again or using an old version of a component, but both of those mean that, with every update you'll be doing it again. If your files are of the specific type listed above, that fix has worked through the last few updates with no problems.

  • My N73 can't play MP4 file

    Hi,
    I'm using N73 now,just bought it. When I tried to play a MP4 file by using RealOne, it promted "unable to play media file". However, when I move the memory card to another N73, it played well.
    My version is V 2.06.... I know there is higher version V 3.0... but I dont think it must be upgraded to play MP4 file.
    Can any one help me please.
    Thx alot

    Btw, the other 2 n73 phones that you used to play the video must have a new firmware, yours is too old!!
    You mean the latest FW lets N73 to play DIVX video files without installing any 3rd party software like smartmovie?

  • Playing mp4 files on iPad

    Hi All, this a desperate cry for help before I finally junk my new iPad: I am currently enrolled in an online program running on the Adobe Connect platform. The multimedia files (mp4, pdf etc) can not play on the iPad despite several attempts. Any explanation to this and suggestion on what to do?

    You need an app to play those files....I am pretty sure. I play mp4 videos just fine on the app Goodplayer...the older version! The currently available Goodplayer app may not play mp4 files, since they had a dispute (exhorbitant fees) with Dolby, who banned their software use on Goodplayer and several other apps. I understand that there is an app available at the app store that has Dolby software, in that they collaborate with Dolby in some way. Be sure to check capabilities and limitations before you buy any such app. I don't know about pdf files.

  • Nokia n85 not playing MP4 files

    Hi,
    I never used the video podcasts, well I just tried to use some nokia video podcasts and they were in MP4 format. To my surprise my phone says it can not play the format and so it just played it as the audio file. I was reading at GSMArena.com and looks like N85 does support MP4 files.
    Can any one help me on this? How can I play MP4 files on my phone?
    Thanks,
    Harpreet
    N85
    Software ver: 30.019
    RM-334

    Well, podcasts are mainly encoded in AVC@640x360 or 480x320. N85 plays AVC only at 320x240 resolution or lower. It has nothing to do with the container, in this case .mp4.

  • Front Row won't play .mp4 files

    I just recently started using Front Row and, for some reason, it won't play .mp4 files. The said files are in my Movie folder and show up in Front Row's "Movies" menu, but when I try to play them it says "Selected video could not be played, format was not recognized."
    Please help!!

    iTunes only supports MP4s encoded using the Main Profile, but many MP4s that you can download from the web are encoded using High Profile. These need to be converted.
    You can use an app like VideoSpec or MediaInfo to list the encoding characteristics of your MP4s.

  • Can't play .mp4 files anymore

    This has nothing to do with an iphone, and ipod or an ipad. My Macbook Pro running Lion 10.7.2 will not open or play .mp4 files any longer.
    I've tried opening it in quickview and it shows up as a black screen that never plays.
    It does the same when i open it with Quicktime X.
    If i try opening with Quicktime Pro 7, it says 'The movie contains some invalid data' 'The movie could not be opened'.
    someone please help me, i don't know what's going on, and i'm a video editor, so i need to be able to work with these files like i have been for the last few years

    i can dropbox it to you. it's about 107MB
    and i don't restart the computer. i shut it down completely and i've tried pressing down Command R and the power button all at once and holding Command R down after letting go of the power button
    i've also tried holding down command and r and while they are pressed down, then i press the power button.
    none of these tedious combinations have worked.
    what's your email and i can send you the file once i have it up on drop box.

  • Still cant open embedded files with Adobe Reader 10.0.1

    Hi!
    In the first version of Adobe Reader X you had to disable the Protection Mode in order to open PDF-files on a network drive or that are embedded in a i.e Word document.
    I have now upgraded my version to 10.0.1.
    The first issue seems to be solved (open files on a network drive). But I still cant open PDF files embedded in another file??
    I get the error message: The Program used to create this object is AcroExch. That program is either not installed on your computer or it is not responding. To edit this object, install AcroExch or ensure that any dialog boxes in AcroExch are closed.
    And if I try to embedd a PDF-file myself into a document I get the same result.
    As soon as I turn of the Protection Mode it works...
    Is there a way to keep the PM on and still be able to open documents???
    Regards Daniel

    I'm not sure why Adobe hasn't looked into this.  One description elsewhere in the forum seems to suggest that if the computer has had older versions of the reader installed, it will work -- somehow the embedded file needs an older registry key.  I have yet to try installing older versions of reader onto my machine.  This machine has only had reader 10 installed on it.
    I tried the recommendation that is given in another thread.  Turn off running reader in protected mode.  The first time I did it, it didn't work.  The second time I unchecked the "use in protected mode" box, I closed and then reopened reader.  Now I can open embedded pdfs in word.

  • HT4609 error -2048  when it doesn't play MP4 file

    I thought itunes would play MP4 files, but I got the error -2048, what does this error mean??? with Xp OS
    Keep smiling !!!

    Yes you'll likely need to re-rip the album to your iPod.
    How many songs are reported in your iTunes library?
    When you said you selected your entire iTunes library and made sure they were not set to skip when shuffling, how exactly did you do that? 
    There seems to be a missing piece of information here that would help explain the differences in numbers.

  • I thought quicktime plays .mp4 files

    I downloaded quicktime to play a file extension with a .mp4 extension and quicktime says it wont play and there is nowhere to download nothing to make it play. How do I play .mp4 extensions? I tried downloading like 20 programs that are suppose to play .mp4 files and none of them worked.

    The downloaded file is probably stored at C:\Users\<User>\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPhone Software Updates. In general it is probably best to "download and install" updates than download and then install later. Note that you cannot revert to the older firmware if you don't like the update, even if you have the old .ipsw files.

  • Finder cover flow not playing .mp4 files

    Recently I found the option to play video files while in the cover flow view in a finder window (click on the right pointing arrow that appears when hovering over the thumbnail).
    This week when I try playing a video (.mp4 files), I can see that the video is playing but it is not displayed. I know it is playing because I can hear the sound track, can see the reflection of the video below where the display of the video should be and the progress circle works.

    This was fixed in the 10.6.4 update.

  • How do i play .mp4 files via Dreamweaver CS3??

    Hi,
    Using Flash CS3 the RTMP path to the .mp4 file is:
    rtmp://localhost/vod/mp4:sample.mp4 and it works fine to play
    .mp4's, mov's etc.....
    In Dreamweaver CS3 it wont accept any combination of paths.
    Unlike Flash CS3 which only requires the single String,
    Dreamweaver has two boxes that need to be filled in: The Server URI
    field and also the Stream Name field.
    Like FMS 2, where you don't name the streams folder in the
    url, Dreamweaver CS3 is looking for it ie the "media folder" which
    has replaced the "stream" folder.
    Where in Flash CS3 you have to use the convention
    mp4:sample.mp4, Dreammeaver will not accept anything.
    Any help here would be appreciated

    I assume from the silence that Dreamweaver CS3 has not been
    updated to handle Flash 9 player and streaming Video from FMS 3.0
    then.
