Video Clip Playback Problem

when trying to run a video clip it starts over from the beginning after about 20 seconds. Any ideas?

I am still struggling with the project and hope that you can help me further. I first converted the jpegs to psd files as they always displayed in the project panel and scene/timelines. Previously large batches of the jpegs showed offline status, only cured by clicking on the green button at the left-hand corner of the icon. This was very time consuming and out of curiosity-despair I converted to psd files.
However when exporting to PC-Windows Media the process failed at the end (2hrs 40mins): Windows Media is out of memory. I have 4GB of RAM, the project is just over 3GB in the exporting dialogue box. I viewed the scratch disk dialogue box and approximately 240GB  (C: drive) is allotted to the various parts of the project.
I bought an extra 4GB of RAM but for some reason it won’t work in my processor; when I switch on there is a ‘no signal’ message on my screen. If I remove the native RAM and substitute the new RAM the result is the same. I will ask the store to run a check on the new RAM if that is possible.
I read your (Bill) article relating to downsizing jpegs to 1000 x 750 pixels. I batch processed them in Photoshop and gave them a try. I rendered the project before exporting. Why is it rendered a second time when exporting? The result was the same: windows media is out of memory. I deleted a batch of video clips but the result was the same. I exported to DVD and again it was the same.
The only transition that I use is the two second of cross fade. The project contains approximately 400 jpegs and 40 video clips (.mov format, 29fps 720). In most cases I have split the clips and applied the transition. In the majority of clips I adjusted brightness and saturation, and applied titles to some. I was intending to add audio, music tracks, to the project but it looks like I will need to dream on.

  • Annoying video/DVD playback problems on new Mac mini (2010)

    I have a Mac mini at home right now, latest edition (2010).
    I am very surprised to find that DVD playback exhibits signs of stutters here and there. Not huge stutters, but I can constantly see small "skips" and what seems like frame drops here and there. Playing back the same DVD on a $120 Blu-ray-player shows no sign of this behaviour.
    I have tried this on two different TV sets (one 720p and one 1080p), and the mini is not able to play back a DVD without these stutters/skips. Two different blu-ray players play the disc just fine (I have been using Ghost Dog to test - check chapter to and the scenes containing panning, it's easier to notice that way).
    It seems ordinary video files playback (files from HD, 720p, mkv) exhibit some of the same behaviour, though this seems more dependent on which app is used for playback. Quicktime seems worse (noticeable stutters/skips), VLC 1.1 a bit better (though both DVD playback and file playback show signs of stutter), while XBMC is the best of the three, with very little frame drop (if that is in fact what it is).
    Any idea what's going on here? Why will such a expensive machine with HDMI output not play back video properly, while a cheap Blu-ray-player does it just fine?
    Are there any known issues?
    (sorry for posting this in the wrong from earlier!)

    I have not used the dvd player app in my 2010 mini, but I've certainly played every media type under the sun since receiving it.
    It plays them all without dropping frames, stuttering, pausing, etc.
    Are you using dvd player with dvd disc images, video ts folders, or actual DVD discs in the drive?
    If you're playing a disc image or video ts folder, are you accessing them over wireless networking? If so, try them on the internal drive, or over a wired network connection.
    Try turning off the option is in energy saver that allows drive sleep (system sleep can stay where it is, just turn off *hard drive* sleep).
    For best performance, make sure you aren't running other apps besides the media player app that you're using at the time.
    Make sure you don't have software or utilities running background tasks (such as disk warrior, drive genius or tech tool pro).
    If you have external devices connected (including printer and/or scanner), try the system without them connected. Does the video playback improve without them connected? If it does, then try reconnecting them one by one to figure out which one of them is related to the problem.

  • PS cs4 extended...audio during editing... No audio in rendered video clips playback??

    Hi I am running Cs4 Extended using PS on a 64 Bit Win 7 computer.  I am able to import video and edit it and the audio is there while editing.  But no matter what I do when rendering the video clips I get no play back audio just the video.  I just loaded onto this new computer I know I did video on my old computer with no problems.  is there a default setting that is blocking the audio to be rendered with the video.  Thanks for any help.

    OK so I took the edited PS video file from my new computer and saved it over to a Drive, then opened the same PS file onto my older 32 bit computer. 
    I made no changes to it at all and just did a RENDER VIDEO.
    it has the sound from that computer.  This tells me it is a very simple problem somehow can any one tell me what to try.  Thanks for any help.

  • Mobile mp4's video clip playback

    does anyone know how to enable mp4 video from a mobile handset playback on the computer?
    trying to get clips from sony erricson p910 to play leaves me with a black screen but with sound and some random blocks of colour.
    I managed it before on a g4 system but cannot for the life of me remember.
    vlc of course plays them and i have added all sorts of div x and other codecs, yet as mp4s it would be nice if they just palyed out of the box.
    thanks

    I logged out and logged in as a different user. I fired up FCPX and imported the same event file from the book.
    It did not freeze once during playback.
    I then imported one of the clips (.mov) I had imported from tape. Again, no problem whatsoever.
    I removed any applications launched during log-in and logged in as normal, launched FCPX and it still exhibited the same problem with freezing.
    Since all of the media is on the same (RAID 10) disk and the only difference is the account I've logged in with, it appears that there is a process running under one account that is responsible for the momentary freezing. If I find what it is I'll report back.

  • Video Podcast Playback Problem

    I have an issue where a single video podcast cannot be found by the iPod app on my iPhone.
    + The video Podcast is downloaded to my PowerBook's iTunes Podcast library and will play from there.
    + The video podcast in question is checked.
    + The iTunes and iPhones settings are correct, other video podcasts download and play.
    + When I sync the iPhone I can see the podcast is being downloaded to my iPhone in iTunes.
    + I've tried resubscribing and have looked at the file details on my PowerBook and it doesn't differ from any other video podcast.
    The problem is that when I open the iPod app on the iPhone and click Podcasts the podcast is not listed. It is only true for this one podcast. Others, like The Onion video podcast are listed and play.
    Searching the iPhone from the top level the iPhone finds the video podcast by name so it is for sure on the phone. Clicking on it starts playback like any other video podcast, but there is only a blank screen.
    One workaround I found was to create a playlist on my PowerBook that contains podcasts. If I do this then the podcast can be played on the iPhone from this playlist and from the top level search. This is a workaround though and I would like to understand why the iPod app can't seem to find this one podcast.
    Thank you for your help.

    This problem was fixed with the iPhone 3.1 software release. For those who are curious the video podcasts that were not showing up were from SnapStream's Beyond TV.

  • Multiple clips playback problem

    Hi Guys
    I have four long clips, in my time line which has been stack together. Let call it Clip A , B C and D.
    B is on my main timeline, A is above B.  C and D is under B.
    Something like ,
    Usually, FCP will disply the top clip only. But recently for this project, i found even i disable clip A and B, FCPX will disply D (which is the clip at the bottom) instead of C. And some times, i have disable A ,C ,and D it won't show clip B.
    Any suggestions?  I do not have any clue ,this problem comes and goes, very annoying.
    Your feedback is highly appreciated.
    Cheers
    Eric. H

    Yes, i happens during play back. Like this picture, if i diable 2398 9863, and 4956, it won't show the last clip at bottom.I can hear the sound but no pictures at all.

  • Rendered clip playback problem

    Here's the problem: When I play back a rendered clip it freezes up on my NTSC monitor. In the viewer in Final Cut, it becomes a jumbled mess... lots of gray blocks... very pixely. It doesn't seem to matter what kind of clip it is; Motion file, still pic, etc.... The first time it did it, I deleted my render files for that project, shut everything down and started back up. Everything worked fine... for a while. The problem came back and nothing seems to be helping this time.
    I'm running a Dual-core 2.3GHz PowerPC G5 with Final Cut Studio 2. Any help would be appriciated.
    I hope I made a little bit of sense... at this point my brain is fried from trying to figure this thing out. I'm getting close to my project deadline.
    Thanks

    Thanks for the quick response. You've helped me figure out part of it.
    I'm editing on a DV NTSC timeline (footage is from a DVX100A). I just checked and the MOTION clip I used was saved in HD... so that explains that. The other types of clips that I'm having problems with are a still pic that has a little bit of keyframed motion to it (created in FINAL CUT) and some shots that I've slowed down. I've never had any problems with these before. Could the HD clip be affecting these as well?

  • Video/DVD conversion problems and questions

    I have been using i-tunes for a couple years. The music libary and its functionality is superb however after getting an Iphone I have been trying to fully understand the concept of the required video/dvd conversion before itunes will accept them.
    I have used a couple different programs to convert content into Mpeg-4 itunes acceptable format. However when attempt to snyc video to my iphone several issues arise. First I have had content in my movie/video libary that for whatever reason will not transfer to the phone. Sometimes itunes will transfer a specific video and then on a later snycing, it will leave that same content out. Bizarre. I had 4 videos loaded into itunes and at one point I had all of them on the phone. During my last snyc session although they were checked, in the movie libary, they were not transferred.
    I have been using the itunes conversion option even after its been coverted into Mpeg-4, is this neccessary ? I have ripped a full length purchased dvd and loaded it onto Itunes, however it will not sync to the phone. Should I be able to load an entire movie if I have the available space or is there a capacity limit ?
    Can someone describe a process from start to finish, that will decode/convert video/dvd's into Itunes acceptable format that will also allow snycing to my I-phone without all of these constant issues ?
    Thanks !
    S ~

    Ok folks let's disengage the panic button. This is more of a means of sorting out a movie/video clip snync problem than trying to circumvent legalities and or discuss copyright violations none of which are present.
    i/tunes seems to make up it's own mind regarding which vid clips are transferred to the iphone even when all selections are formatted and are checked. No error message, no indicators, some files move while others do not.
    Any ideas ?

  • Self-made video clip does not play completely on website

    I have a short video clip [1:22 minutes/40.6 MBs] taken using my Canon Sureshot camera and mounted on one of my webpages. It plays fully in iWeb's publishing site but after uploading it to my domain host's internet, the video only plays half way. The play icon moves but there is no advancement of the clip or sound.
    I contacted the domain host provider and they have not been too helpful other than to suggest uploading to YouTube in order to get a weblink. I would prefer the video clip on the page rather than a weblink.
    There is speculation my web space is full to capacity, but it has not been verified. If there is enough web space, what is the key factor I should know to have this video clip playback in its entirety once it has been uploaded to the internet. My FTP program indicates it has been uploaded successfully in the Directory, Media, Scripts and Hypertext files.
    I'm not a high-level techie, but still want to have videos on my website as I see on many others. It may mean upgrading for more web space. Before I do, I thought I would check it out with the support group to see if there is a solution to uploading successfully a video clip to play in its entirety.
    The webpage link is: http://thebigbenmemorialtrail.ca/New_Scouting_Team.html — the video is still mounted for the purpose of my seeking help.
    Many thanks, in advance.

    Thanks, Old Toad,
    I know what you are referencing. I just never go to that folder but that is where I do publish the site prior to uploading it onto the internet using the FTP.
    And, it is when I have published the updated pags to the the Local Folder, the video plays perfectly well.
    Soooo, it must be all about restricted bandwith that I am currently using with my domain web host ISP, which is a shared bandwidth. Economics affect me as a volunteer therefore cannot afford the higher speed which is not a shared bandwith.
    To add to my demise, I have issues with signing on to YouTube through my Google account. Try to sort that one out is impossible. Tried for hours but all to no avail to get signed in. So I can't upload my videos which is too bad for my website.
    Will chat further with my domain host and see what other options are available to me.

  • Playback problems and video freezes due to plugins being used on video clips?

    When I have video clips on my timeline, they do not play in the monitor screen. I hear the sound track but can not see the image. To test if my new files are somehow the problem, I went back and used video files that I used successfully a year ago, and they no longer play in the monitor window. I hear the sound track, but do not see any video. Have I changed some setting that controls video playback in the monitor window?

    Thanks for the follow up.
    Missing in this equation were the version of Premiere Elements that you were using and the computer operating system on which it was running. But...
    The deed is done. But.....Until now and after you went ahead and moved to version 12, we now learn what version of Premiere Elements you were using. We still do not know the computer operating system involved.
    You just said Premiere Elements 10. Premiere Elements 10 is hit by a serious known display issue if the computer uses a NVIDIA GeForce video card/graphics card. In this issue, the only remedy is to roll back the driver version to about May 2013. The description of the problem and how to do the roll back are described in one of the Announcements at the top of this forum. What video card/graphics card does your computer use?
    On another front, Adobe will be releasing a new version of Premiere Elements any day now. No one but Adobe knows the feature set for the new version. That type of information is announced at the moment of release of the new version.
    So the remedy to the problem that you presented in this thread could have been...
    1. Rolling back the NVIDIA GeForce driver version to about May 2013 if possible (Windows 8 or 8.1 64 bit, may not be possible)
    2. Move to another version of Premiere Elements (which you did)
    I offer the above for consideration so that you can review your decisions. We are pleased to learn that Premiere Elements 12/12.1 works for you.
    Please do not hesitate to ask questions and ask for clarifications, but remember that the answers are in the details.

  • Entire frame of mini-dv video clips do NOT show in the iMovie '11 viewer in playback mode

    I am editing a wedding video in iMovie11 that was recorded on a mini dv tape.  When I move video clips from the event library to the timeline, the entire frame is displayed in the timeline.  However, the entire frame of the video clip does NOT show in the iMovie viewer or when I playback the video.  I exported the video and burned it to a dvd using Toast 11 pro.  The video recorded to the dvd as it was showing in the iMovie viewer... the full frame does not show.  I would certainly appreciate any advice as to how to solve my problem.  THANK YOU!!!

    Is your video shot in 16:9 aspect ratio or 4:3?
    You can go to File/Project Properties and set the aspect ratio for the project.
    When you get a clip that does not match the project's aspect ratio, you use the Rotate, Crop, Ken Burns tool on the middle toolbar to specify how it should be treated.
    FIT will place the entire clip in the movie, and will letterbox (black bars) so that it fits.
    CROP will fill the screen, but will cut off the top and bottom of your frame.

  • Premiere Elements 8 - Video Playback Problem...

    Hi,
    I recently purchased Premiere Elements 8 and I have come across a problem which is really frustrating.
    Everything I drag one of my imported video files into the timeline and try to play it, the playback comes out all strange and distorted.
    I have included a picture what what the playback looks like below.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated Thanks

    Let us not give up.
    First, check out what looks like all you would ever want and not want to know about DivX.
    http://www.divxmovies.com/faq/#4.6
    Next, let us attack this video clip with which you are dealing. We need to get a better handle on it, other than DivX Decoder Filter.
    First look to see what DivX and any other codecs that you have installed on your computer. If you have Windows XP, follow the path:
    Control Panel/System/Hardware/Device Manager/Sound, video, and game controllers/video codecs and see if you have any DivX codecs there and do they need to be updated.
    Download the free utility gspot and see what it tells you about the properties of your video, especially the video and audio codecs.
    http://www.headbands.com/gspot/v26x/quick_start.html
    This way, hopefully we will know what we are dealing with.
    Also, what operating system do you have? If Windows Vista, does it have a Windows DVD Maker?
    Did you ever say how you intended to export the Timeline and how you want to view the export?
    I will be watching for your progress.
