  • Can apple TV be made to play .mkv files?

    Has anyone been able to make apple TV play .mkv files?

    If you install http://perian.org/ quicktime will be able to play mkv files including the ac3 audio.
    You can use Quicktime to save the file as a mov which should then play on the AppleTV. Personally I use VisualHub, it's much faster and allows you to queue up a batch to process. It will depend on your system, but my machine will recode a TV show in approx. 30mins.
    The Visualhub method will loose the surround sound. AC3 and DTS are not supported by the mp4 container so it will be converted to stereo. You should be able to keep the AC3 or DTS in a mov, but I've not tried this so I don't know whether the AppleTV will play the file.
    As the new firmware will allow for HD movies with surround sound (according to the MacWorld keynote) there might be a fix for this then. We'll have to wait for someone to rent a movie and see what the container and codecs used are. Hopefully we'll be able to use 5.1 AAC and the AppleTV will convert that to AC3 out of the optical output for my surround amp as AC3 and DTS take up a lot of space.

  • How can I play mkv files in iTunes?

    Hi All,
    How can I play mkv files in iTunes?
    What're the limitations of iTunes? I see there are a lot of files that iTunes cant play. Is it true for all?
    Lofty

    BUT my iMac does not support my WAVE files
    Sure it does.
    File -> Add to library and select the folder where the WAV files are located.

  • Playing .mkv files in QTX/QT7 video works fine, sound is distorted.

    What I'm trying to do is open some .mkv files in Quicktime 7 so that I can export it as an mp4 with AAC audio (instead of AC3, 5.1). The audio during playback ends up sounding like a helicopter or what you'd hear if you stuck a piece of sandpaper in a box fan. When I play the files in VLC the audio is as it should be. I'm at a loss as to what the problem could be. I have version 1.2.1 of Perian installed as well if that helps at all.

    It could be a 'difficult' form of Matroska file. FYI Matroska is just a container like MOV or AVI, and some mkv have the video encoded with Real Video Codec (RV9 RV10). Perian+QT can't decode this, but VLC will play .mkv files just fine on OS X, as long as they don't use H.264!
    It's a bit of a lottery until Matroska decide to support the Apple platform. I have found this:
    http://mkv4mac.free.fr/index.php?lang=en&p=lec
    which may help.
    But there may be another workaround: 1. Get Info the mkv file
    2. Change to extension to wmv. Save as wmv and that could work better.
    Or this link may be helpful:

    Recently, a poster (ZachP14) suggested this:
    "There's a program called Plex that runs .mkv files awesome on my 2.0 ghz macbook."

    Maybe worth a try?

  • Unable to play .mkv files

    I used to be able to play .mkv files with VLC Player just fine before. After I started using Boot Camp with Windows XP, I am unable to play such files because I get an error message saying this computer is too slow to process the video. I'm trying to play 720p movies, but haven't been able to on a 2.2 Ghz MBP with 2 Gigs of ram. So, if anyone has a solution, please post! Thank you!

    Any other video works. I tried launching vlc with --no-video and then sound channel works. Both totem and vlc gives Segmentation Fault in terminal.
    I remember when I installed vlc, it asked whether I will use gstreamer or phonon, I did choose gstreamer. Now I tried reinstalling vlc and it didn't ask for that anymore.
    Ok, I tried opening other mkv files and they worked (I don't know why all the time I thought that the file is 100% ok, apparently it wasn't). But that file was similar to any other files (just a new episode of one TV show).
    P.S. I noticed that I can open that file with Windows and there are audio bugs, but It shows video well... Ahhh, the most important is that video codecs are fine on my arch, so let it be so!
    A strange bug, but if it's like that only with one wrong file, then it's ok. Sorry about bothering you here about my strange file

  • Playing MKV files with a burned DVD on BDP S470

    I have found that my player is compatible with MKV files. My question is can I play them back on a burned disc? And if so, do I just burn the MKV file to the DVD like I would any other file(s). If not does anyone out there know the correct procedure and proper softwarefor taking the MKV files and transferring them to a DVD so they play in my player? Right now I use imgburn for making duplicates of my DVD movies for my personal backup. I would like to do the same with my BR movies especially the ones that require a double layer BR which right now cost wayyyy too much. I just want to convert so it can fit on a single layer BR
    thanks very much

  • Is there support for animated .gif files?

    Is there support for animated gif files using
    form builder? I can't get it to work.
    Thanks
    Sean
    I am using forms 6.0

    She used the Link Tool, specfied 'Image URL' as the Source File Format and the url of the animated GIF in the Source Filename. Hope that helps.
    Makes sense but the form is not for the web.
    I have looked at doing it with timers and switching canvases, but that is just too much
    for sloppy animation. It's just not tight enough.
    Thanks,

  • Just bought a Nikon d750 and confused about adobe LR4 and PS6 support for the RAW files. I have DNG 8.7 but wondering if LR and PS will import direct soon Thanks for any advice

    Just bought a Nikon d750 and confused about adobe LR4 and PS6 support for the RAW files. I have DNG 8.7 but wondering if LR and PS will import direct soon Thanks for any advice

    Support for the Nikon D750 was introduced in the latest version of LR 5.7 and ACR 8.7 on Novemder 18th 2014.
    Further updates to LR 4 were stopped when LR 5 was released on June 9th 2013. No further updates for bug fixes and new camera support.
    Nada, LR 4 will never support Nikon D750. The Nikon D750 was introduced into the market in September 2014 some 15 months after further development of LR 4 was discontinued.
    You can use the Adobe DNG program (free download for the package) to convert the Nef (raw) files from your Nikon D750 to the Adobe DNG format which will permit you to import those into LR 4. This is the crutch provided by Adobe to allow for the processing of raw files with outdated versions of LR and ACR.
    You can also update the ACR plugin for PS CS6 to version 8.7 which can also work with the raw files from the D750. For direct support in Lightroom you will need to upgrade (paid) to version 5.7.

  • No support for avi video files in symbian belle

    well, the os is super impressive and the video player too.. But there is a problem while playing avi files. There is no preinstalled support for this type of file. While mp4 works fine without any problems. (i'm talking about nokia 600,603,700,701,n8,,etc)

    Yeah, there are some issues for some codecs. But you should be fine for aac/xvid files. I can run them without any problem. Also i can run .mkv files.

  • Stor.e TV + - playing .mkv files have sound but no picture

    I've just transferred all of my .mkv files onto my store TV + but most of them have sound but no picture?They play fine on my PC...
    Also,anyway of changing the icon on the folder to the actual dvd cover on the store TV +?Sick of looking at yellow folders!!
    Thanks..

    Hi
    Found the StorE TV+ specifications on this Toshiba page:
    http://www.toshiba-multimedia.com/eu/store-external-hard-drives/tv-plus/
    The Store TV+ supports the video formats:: MPEG1 (DAT, MPG), MPEG2 (VOB, MPG, TS/M2TS/TP TRP), MPEG4 (AVI, MP4, MKV), VC-1 (WMV), H.264 (AVI, MKV,MOV, MP4), RM/RMVB (RM/RMVB)
    The MKV files are supported by MPEG4 and H.264 video format.
    Are the files recorded in this formats?
    How about playing other files i.e MPG or AVI?
    Furthermore I would recommend checking the connection to the TV.
    Here is a user manual which I found on the Toshiba page:
    http://www.toshiba-multimedia.com/Global/Manuals/Store/Manuals/STORE_TVplus_User_Manual.pdf
    It shows you how to connect the Store TV+ correctly.

  • 40TL938G: no sound playing MKV files

    Hello,
    Last week I have purchased a Toshiba TV, type 40TL938G and I have two major problems which bother me very much.
    Today, I spoke to the Toshiba Call Center from Romania.
    I'd like to tell me if the future this problems can be solve or I'll be forced to sell it, because this TV does not satisfy my expectations.
    So, the first problem is that if I want to browse of the net on some movies sites and I can't really see them, which is very, very annoying for me.
    The guys from Toshiba Call Center told me that it's because the browser don't support viewing of any movie but does not seem normal as long as Samsung, LG and Sony have resolved these problems and specialists from Toshiba don't till now.
    This is a very bad advertisement for Toshiba TVs and if my friends and my clients ask me if I'm satisfied with the Toshiba products, I can say only that I'm not satisfied, really.
    The second problem that bother me a lot and I'm unhappy again is that on package and features TV is written that this TV supports MKV files but nowhere and no one wrote that Toshiba TV support MKV files but no sound because the sound does not working.
    I tried to do a firmware update for this model but no exist.
    It's possible soon to solve these two problems? If these problems hasn't solutions I'll be forced to sell it and to make a bad advertising for Toshiba's products, because I'm IT dealer and I have many clients and I don't want to lie my clients about product defects.
    I'm waiting for an answer from you, soon as possible.
    Thank you.
    Best regards,
    Robert

    > The second problem that bother me a lot and I'm unhappy again is that on package and features TV is written that this TV supports MKV files but nowhere and no one wrote that Toshiba TV support MKV files but no sound because the sound does not working.
    The MKV files are supported. But the mkv files have to support the right audio codec!
    Found the info in the user manual (page 90)
    http://www.toshiba-om.net/LCD/PDF/English/TL938-4046-English.pdf
    _MKV files_
    *Video codec:* MPEG-1 Video, MPEG-2 Video, MPEG-4 part2, H.264 (MPEG-4 AVC)
    *Audio codec:* MPEG-1/2 Layer2, MPEG-1/2 Layer3, Dolby Digital (AC-3), L-PCM, MPEG-2/4 LC-AAC, MPEG-4 HE-AAC
    >The guys from Toshiba Call Center told me that it's because the browser don't support viewing of any movie
    Sorry mate that you are missing some features but fact is that this is a TV browser and it may work differently than PC browsers. The manual says that this browser does not support platform-dependent technologies such as Active X and it supports only preinstalled plug-ins.
    If flash plugin isnt preinstalled you will not be able to watch flash based content.
    By the way: it occurs to me that you are thinking to speak to Toshiba stuffsorry mate, this is user to user forum and we all here are enthusiasts

  • No QuickTime support for playing video?

    I have an iPhone 3G and a iPhone 3GS, I might just have never noticed it before but I recently tried to play a .mov file on my server via an HTML file (that plays on my PC and Mac) through iPhone's Safari with no sucess. I find it rather interesting given the 3GS capability to record Video and the iPhone being able to play video from Itunes and Youtube that it doesn't seem to support Apple's native Quicktime format to play .mov files from the internet.
    Am I doing something wrong or missing something? I have 3.0 OS on both phones.

    The iPhone includes QuickTime support - you can watch videos via Apple's website and other websites with video provided via QT, but the video must be in the proper format for the iPhone. YouTube converted all YouTube video for the iPhone's YouTube app in QuickTime format or in a video format that is supported with the iPhone via QT.
    Copied from this link.
    http://www.apple.com/iphone/specs.html
    Video formats supported: H.264 video, up to 1.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Low-Complexity version of the H.264 Baseline Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; H.264 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Baseline Profile up to Level 3.0 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats

  • Random support for .BWF Poly files in CC

    Audition's support for .BWF files seems patchy and random. I use the industry standard Sound Devices recorders and the good news is that Audition will open all the files and 'see' all the individual tracks within - unfortunately it will only play back only 30-40% of them. Is anyone else seeing this problem?
    There seems to be no logic to this. The norm is that anything over 1Gb will open, but not play. However I have several files that are only 2-300MB that will not play. All files are recorded as 24bit / 48Hz and all are 'Poly files' i.e. they contain multi tracks as output by the SD recorder. All these files play perfectly in Reaper / Apple Logic Pro X but the latter is poor and does not show the individual tracks, Audition displays these, just refuses to play them!
    Nick

    Hi Nick,
    Any chance you can share one of the affected files with us?  Send me an e-mail to [email protected] and I'll send a shared Creative Cloud folder to make this easy.  I'll make sure I can reproduce the problem on our side, and troubleshoot further.
    thanks.

  • Support for itunes plus file transfer / playback

    The lastest Nokia Media Transfer application for the mac allows the transfer of itunes plus (.m4a extension) files, these are purchased itunes tracks without DRM. From what I understand apple have modified the tag data on these files which prevents them from being played on a Nokia phone, the Mac transfer application will process these files to modify this data and allow the tracks to be played.
    My question is, will windows users get a similar application, to avoid the use of third party / manual operations, to allow these files to be transferred directly from itunes to my Nokia in the same manner as the mac application?
    Its usually the mac being the un-supported OS but appears to be windows in this case !

    yeah, Apple have their own way of working with aac/mp4 tags. They add extra bits that other players, unless programmed to read, won't understand, and at worst they won't play the file at all. There is another standard, the Nero standard, and they are similar but the Nero version is more universally recognised. There isn't an ID3v1/ID3v2 for MP4 files, yet. Although, like I said, since 90% of the world uses the Apple method of tagging, that is close enough to being a standard.
    It's not that Nokia don't want you using iTunes, or like you said, they would force Mac users to use a Nokia music program. I think it is just that the whole "PC Suite" philosophy is geared around the Windows Media Player way of doing and tagging things. And since WMP doesn't recognise m4a files, neither does the Nokias. To get around this, instead of fixing their mp4 codecs to recognise Apple formatting, they made a transfer program that swaps the tags to a Nokia-understandable format. Which is just silly.
    I've tried the Suite Music Manager, I have. Honest opinion - use Windows Media player instead. BUT I don't want to use that either, I have a huge collection ripped/catalogued in iTunes, and I shouldn't have to go about fiddling with tags and swapping software/workflows just so my phone can play it. I don't need to with MP3 so why should I need to with AAC/MP4? It would only take a few lines of code in the phone's AAC codec for it to read these tags, surely thats easier than making transfer programs and Music Managers?
    The arguement "Nokia want you buying from the Nokia store rather than iTMS" doesn't hold water either, because I'm never buying from either, as long as I can still buy CDs from the shop.
    Like I said, this whole thing may be fixed with the new N95-8 etc. If its not, and Nokia have no intention of fixing it, then my next phone will be an iPhone. I don't WANT an iPhone, but this whole thing is a deal-breaker for me.

  • Toshiba 23EL933 doesn't play MKV files

    Hi,
    three days ago I bought a 23EL933 TV on Amazon.it.
    I tried to play an MKV file but it doesn't work: the movie seems to start but, after one second, the file stops and I come back to the root directory of my USB pendrive.
    Is the TV defective? Do I have to send it back to Amazon.it or do I have to bring it to Toshiba Assistance?
    Please let me know.
    Thank you.
    Regards,
    Luca.

    Hi Lucamarc.
    The specifications state support mkv files.
    Check if the file has a frame larger than the standard FullHD (1920x1080) and it is bi-lingual.
    I have an 32SL833 and I had to re-encode some.
