Technical problem: PPro CS5.5 won't play DSLR MOVs

Hello!
I am new to PPro CS5.5 (first day, actually) and I cannot play back .MOVs from my Canon 5D Mk2 (with audio). Every other file format that I tried worked, which is quite bad because I bought the Production Premium package just to work with DSLR footage.
It doesn't matter whether I create a sequence (still haven't figured what that is for) with/for the file or not, it doesn't matter what project settings I have. After I start the application I can play (or scrub) DSLR files for ten seconds max before the output starts to jump erratically within the clip (the playhead doesn't) and then turns green (RGB: 0x008600), sometimes interjected with images from other clips that have been played before, sometimes even garbage. There is no recovering from this. All other file formats continue to work fine. "Project New" or exiting the application then may take up to a minute while the program remains unresponsive and looks like it has crashed. It is totally unusable (the competition and every other software works fine with the files).
I have a Win7 64Bit 3.4GHz Sandybridge system with 16GB RAM. The harddisks are large, fast and quick enough to handle DSLR video. There are no other applications running in the background (really nothing as the computer is of course not connected to the internet) and there's lots of memory and harddisk space available.
What can I do or what did I do wrong? Thanks in advance.

To edit/play MOV you must have Quicktime installed... what version of QT do you have installed?

    Hello:
    This is not an area I have much experience in......I rarely insert DVDs and I have never had a similar problem.
    When the DVD is in the drive (and DVD players is open) click on File>get disk info.

  • Quicktime won't play my .mov files since I upgraded to Mavericks.

    Quicktime won't play my .mov files, even those from an iPhone, since I installed Mavericks.  "Tell Me More" doesn't tell me anything about a solution.  Any suggestions?

    What do I do?
    Frankly, if you have deleted the original movie clips from your camera/camcorder and iPhoto, then it sounds as if you are up the proverbial creek without a paddle and there is nothing further that you can do.
    Some facts:
    For some reason, the movieclips are awful small (13-30 KB).
    640 x 480
    Codecs: H.264, AAC
    While these facts are of little value without file duration information, as you yourself have already noted, the file sizes quoted are extremely small. A typical VGA H.264/AAC file of reasonable quality would normally have a combined total data rate in the 700 to 1,700 Kbps range depending on specific settings, profile, and level of the encoding software and could be even higher or lower depending on the quality levels required. Therefore, it is reasonable to assume that files in the 13 to 30 KB range only contain 104 to 240 Kbs and either have durations measured in fractions of seconds or do not actually contain enough data to be played. (E.g., the video data may be missing or the file is corrupted.) Thus, it is most likely that something was wrong with the workflow used to "export" your files to the external drive and when you ignored the fact that the files were not playing correctly, you closed the door on anything that you could do when you deleted the source files. (I.e., the normal workflow here is to copy the entire iPhoto library to the external drive, switch libraries, confirm the new library is working properly and only then delete the boot drive copy of the iPhoto library.)
    OBS: When I try to convert the files into something else (AVI, MP4 whatever) either it comes with an error, nothing happens or the converted file wont open. This happens with various convert-programs.
    If the data in the files is missing, then there is nothing to be converted by any application.

  • Installed 6.05 upgraded no problem w/windows; BUT, won't play old music

    Well, when I opened iTunes yesterday, I was asked if I wanted to upgrade so, like everyone else, I said 'yes'. the upgrade installed just fine (didn't lock up windows and I can still open iTunes)...however, it won't play my older iTunes downloads.
    I've gotten the login screen to authorize each song. Not a problem; I figure that's normal. I enter my password and get the "Authorization successful!" message. WELL....the song still doesn't play. When I click play (I figure that at least it's authorized) -- I get the authorization login screen again!
    Now I've uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes (I've tried both the old version and the new version) -- even disabled McAfee (all components) -- but I get the same issue.
    I don't get a file error; I just keep getting prompted to authorize then authorization successful; but no music.
    Oh, I also deauthorized and reauthorized my computer: still nothing!
    Help!!
    Rob

    hmmmmm. it's plausible that this is to do with a problem with the itunes configuration file. that's where the authorisation information is stored.
    let's try seeing if rebuilding that file helps with the problem. for the technique, see the following document. (it's about a different error, but the technique is applicable to these sorts of things.)

  • Audition CS5.5 won't play

    MacBook Pro 17"
    2.2GHz Intel Core i7
    8Gb RAM
    Audition was working nicely.  Now over the past 2 weeks, it won't play anything.  I've tried MP3 files, WAVs, audio exported from Premiere....nothing is working.
    Help!!!

    Why is it silly that the record and playback sample rate have to match?  If you think about it, when you're recording, the sound you're listening to is looped through your sound interface.  If the rates don't match, it'll stop working because from your description, you're probably using something like a simple Realtek which can only do one thing at a time.
    Really, the inbuilt sound cards on most computers are NOT designed for any serious recording--they're far more suitable just for watching Youtube or making Skype calls.  However, you CAN use it if your really must--but it'll get confused trying to handle two sample rates at once.
    It's not anything silly in Audition--it's a limitation of your sound card and operating system.

  • Quicktime Player Pro won't play any movies?

    Ever since I restored my computer about a month ago, my Quicktime Player won't play any video formats correctly. .avi files don't play anymore, and mp4 files only play sound with the screen black. Then when I try to close the application, I get the pinwheel for a long time, thus making me force quit every time. How can I fix this so it can play movies correctly?
    (I'd also like to know how to get it to play .mka format movies as well)

    Courtney,
    There are a lot of possible CODECS used with .AVI file, not all of which are available for the QuickTime player.
    If you just want to play the AVI files use the free VLC media player found at http://www.videolan.org/vlc/

  • Keynote '08 won't play MPG movie

    I'm preparing a presentation. Bought a video clip to include, which turned out to be in MPG format. It plays fine on my computer in QuickTime, but won't play within the presentation. When I insert it the icon of a sound file appears, but it doesn't even play sound. Is there a fix for this?

    Here's some info and how to convert the file...

  • Quicktime won't play my movies, just plays audio

    I have some movies downloaded that were .avi files when i got them, I used Divx Doctor to convert them to .mov files. Now, they play fine on my iBook G4, but on my new iMac all I can get is the audio. The movie info says the video is 3ivx 4.5.1 and I have the 3ivx codec installed on my iMac but it still won't play. In fact I have all the same codecs on the iMac that I have on my iBook. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Try playing it on the iMac under Rosetta. Believe 3ivX v4.5.1 is for PPC Macs only.

  • IPhone 4 won't play rented movie

    Hi,
    I recently rented a movie in itunes using my iphone 4. When I wanted to watch the movie (on my iphone as well), the iphone asks for wifi connection to play the movie file. I don't understand why since my iphone is already connected to my local wifi conneciton...???
    I have also tried renting a movie via Itunes on my MBP and it works fine...
    Can anyone please tell my why this happens?? Can I fix this 'iphone problem' somehow..??
    Thanks,
    Jesper

    Me too, just got this for the second time, today with two movies on my 4s. First it says enable mobile data. I do that in store settings and then it says connect to wifi. Not really viable on the train and I can't check that the movie will play in advance because that could cause the rental to expire before I want to watch it.
    Really annoying, I'd love to know a fix for this.  If I was on an aeroplane for a long haul flight it would be even worse.
    I know they have to have DRM but why does it have to be such a pain?
    Rentals generally don't seem to be up to the usual apple usability standards.

  • Won't play rented movie

    Just rented movie from iTunes to my iPad and, when trying to play to apple tv it state it's not authorized to play this movie. Network connection and all settings seem ok.has anyone got a fix.

    Hey olly,
    I frantically searched everywhere for an answer to this problem and finally found it. I don't know if you already got this fixed, but in order to have the movies play back correctly you need the most recent Quicktime update (version 7.4.1).
    Cheers, Derek

  • ITunes won't play rented movie - authorization error

    Just rented a movie. Playing the movie gets the following error:
    "This computer is not authorized to play 'download.m4v'.
    If you purchased this song you can open your iTunes and authorize this computer to play this song by entering your Apple ID and password"
    It gives the button "OPEN ITUNES".
    The problem: itunes is already open and giving me this message!
    So i click "open iTunes" and get the following:
    "Waiting for iTunes to authorize this computer to play 'Download.m4v'
    iTunes will prompt you for a password. You will not be able to play the song on this computer until you successfully authorize it using iTunes"
    And nothing happens...
    Latest versions of 10.5 and iTunes being used.
    Note: iTunes is authorized since it plays my other purchased content (movies and songs)
    Any ideas?

  • Premiere Pro CS5.5 Won't Play Timeline or Any Media W/ Dual Monitors

    Hello ,
    I've recently ran into a Problem with Adobe Premiere CS5.5 , I decided to resort to the Support Forums to see if someone has an idea. I've been using Premiere for around a year , i've never had an issue like this before. Its a great editing tool and one that i'd love to continue using in the years to come!
    The problem i have , is that when i open up a timeline any timeline that i've created/saved. I press Space which is the Hotkey for play , However it doesn't seem to play the video in either of the two source monitors.
    I did a little digging around the internet to see if i could find any solutions , According to one person it may be an issue with the Video Drivers installed on my computer? After reading this , I Updated by Video Drivers however this hasn't fixed my problem? Do i have to enable the drivers or will be laptop automaticly switch to the new Video Drivers.
    I usually edit with a second monitor which has been working fine. When i disconnect the monitor from the Laptop , And just edit using my Laptop , It works fine. I'm just wondering if someone has a Solution , Perhaps someone may have had a similar problem than me?
    Thanks again! I look forward to finding out what's happening with my Copy of Premiere.
    Phil,

  • Audition CS5.5 Won't Play Sound Files

    Just recently I have not been able to play any files that I have loaded.  In the bottom left hand corner, it notes that the file(s) is either playing or stopped when I press play on the transport, but the cursor won't move and sound will not come out.  Below is the screen shot that I think might be the culprit, but I am not totally sure. I am using Audition CS5.5 on an iMac.  Thougths?

    Well, that's certainly a clue--Audition isn't finding your sound card.  You don't say what you have but the first thing I'd try is reloading your sound card drivers.
    Also, on the other Preferences menu (Audio Hardware) check that you have the proper sound card and driver class selected.
    Finally, depending on what version of Windows you have, it might be worth going to the Windows Audio menu and check that Windows hasn't disabled the device you wish to use for some reason.

  • Video playback problems: ok in VLC, won't play in quicktime/MPEG streamclip

    Hi,
    I have files made in .mov format in Final Cut Pro. When put on my MacBookPro, they lose their file extension. If I add the extension back on again (or not) they play in VLC. Only the audio will play in MPEG stream clip. I have downloaded perian, and the mpeg-2 extra for Quicktime, but Quicktime will still not play these files.
    VLC file format says: audio files are sowt. The video file is mpgv codec.
    The sad thing is I need to use Transana, a video analysis software, which only works with Quicktime.
    I have checked out lots of forums, but nobody seems to have a good answer for this problem, assuming that the Perian or MPEG slipstream or the Quicktime add-on fill fix it.
    I'd be very, very grateful for any advice.
    Thanks very much

    I didn't but I installed it, then rebooted and yet nothing. The output changed though. Here it is.
