Video clip previews won't play.

Videos won't play in Adobe Premiere Elements 10, but play fine in other programs on my computer. I've tried rendering it, installing a new hard drive for scratch disk, and saving the file in different locations. Once when I applied video merge to a clip, it played. I am editing videos blindly and can't take advantage of most of the features of the program. It's really frustrating. Any ideas?

What is the video card/graphics card that your computer with Premiere Elements 10 uses?
If it is NVIDIA GeForce, then you have the well known and documented Premiere Elements 10/NVIDIA GeForce issue which is remedied by rolling back
the driver version to about May 2013. Please review the following
ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE10: NVIDIA Video Card Driver Roll Back
as well as the Announcement on this matter at the top of this forum.
Basically you will need to plug your information into the following NVIDIA fields to determine if there is a driver version for your card that is old enough to be used.
NVIDIA Driver Downloads - Advanced Search
If you are a Windows 8 or 8.1 64 bit user, you will probably find that old enough drivers do not exist for you. Then non NVIDIA GeForce card or Premiere Elements 11, 12, or 13.
Please review and consider if any of the above applies to you. If not, then we will explore alternative troubleshooting.
Thank you.

CS5 Video Clip no longer auto plays

Hi,
I have a video player that I'm creating in Flash -- my video clips are on different scenes and I wanted a "menu" bar to allow the viewer to pick which scene they wanted. I found tutorials for various scrolling thumbnail menu bars and I eventually found a code which allowed me to click from scene to scene.
However, now that the menu bar works, the video clips do not automatically play anymore and I'm not sure why.
This is the link to my file: http://www.mediafire.com/?y7oofbwg444lnp8
I only have one action script on the scene, which is the top layer that has [AS]stop();[/AS]
I have two buttons on either side of the video clip:
[AS]on (press) {
          nextScene(); play();
}[/AS]
[AS]
on (press) {
          gotoAndPlay("SI", 1);
[/AS]
This is the coding for the scrolling menu bar:
Frame 1:
[AS]// Photoscroller 2.0
// Original Author: Barry Driessen
// E-mail: barry@e-factory.
// Upgraded by: Rob Gungor
// Email: [email protected]
// I don't care if u use this thingy, you don't have to
// give me credit for it. Just knock yourself out with it!!
// If you like it or have suggestions, just drop me an e-mail!
// **stupid people tip**
// to use this scroller as is --
//copy all the frames in the timeline (by right/(control //for mac) click, copy frames)
//then right click on your timeline and paste frames
//sorry if that is insulting, but when I first started this stuff, I was dumb too :-)
// Okay... First let's set some variables......
// Xphoto = startposition of the scoll image
xphoto = 258;
// Widthmovie = This variable hase to be set to the
// same amount of the moviewidth
widthmovie = 325;
// Scrollspeed = The scollspeed of the image (high numbers result in slow scrolls 10=average)
scrollspeed = 25;
// widthphoto = the width of your scrollable image in pixels
widthphoto = 2116;[/AS]
Frame 2:
[AS]// Setting the xmouse to 0 in the centre of the movie:
xmouse = _xmouse - (widthmovie / 2);
// Setting the speed:
speed = (xmouse) / scrollspeed;
// If the speed is negative, the speed will be made positive here:
if (speed < 0) {
          speed = -(speed);
//new function courtesy of Rob
//basically says that if the mouse isn't betwen these two y points it won't work
//**stupid people tip**
//make sure that you figure out the top and bottom y points of your "photo" and insert them accordingly!
mouseposition = getProperty("/myself", _y);
if (_ymouse < 330) {
          speed=0;
if (_ymouse > 390) {
          speed=0;
// If the mouse moves to left, the photo will scroll to the right:
// (That makes sense.... Doesn't it!! ;-)
if (xmouse < 258) {
          xphoto = xphoto + speed;
// If the mouse moves to the right, the photo will scroll to the left:
if (xmouse > 258) {
          xphoto = xphoto - speed;
// Checking for the left end of the image:
if (xphoto > 258) {
          xphoto = 258;
// Checking for the right end of the image:
if (xphoto < -(widthphoto - widthmovie)) {
          xphoto = -(widthphoto - widthmovie);
// Placing the moviclip (photo) on it's new postition:
setProperty("photo", _x, xphoto);
[/AS]
[AS]gotoAndPlay (2)
// make sure this clip this in your movie when you copy it.
//**last stupid people tip**
// if you copy these frames into any other frames other than 1, make sure you change the frame that it repeats (ie. if you copy these 3 action frames into 5,6,7 "gotoAndPlay (6)")--
///ok duh-i know. :-)
// The mouseovers are quite simple. Just open the Movieclip "MouseOver"
// to see how it works...
//                                       Have fun!!!!!
//**i realized that it's more fun when drinking beer.
//-rg
[/AS]
Then inside the thumbnail, to make it serve as a button:
[AS]on (rollOver) {
          button2.gotoAndPlay(2);
on (rollOut) {
          button2.gotoAndPlay(16);
on (release) {
          // You can assign an actionscript to each Button in here:
          _level0.gotoAndPlay("my_target1");
}[/AS]
Thanks!

you need to remove:
gotoAndPlay (2)
so your video can play. you've embedded your flv into your timeline so it only plays when the timeline plays and that goto is preventing the timeline from playing.
of course, if you remove that the thumbnail code won't work.
bottomline: your project code is a mess and using an flv in a timeline is not what you should be doing.
you should have no code attached to objects, no frame loops and no flvs embedded in a timeline. you should attach your code to a timeline, user an enterframe loop and use an flvplayback component to play your flv(s).

I have an iPod nano 6th generation and I downloaded 3 music videos but they won't play on my iPod. They only play on my laptop/iTunes. How can I get it to work?

I have an iPod nano 6th generation and I downloaded 3 music videos but they won't play on my iPod. They only play on my laptop/iTunes. How can I get it to work? I know that my iPod should take music videos because there is a pre-made playlist called "Music videos". Can anyone help me please????

You can sync the music videos, but they won't play on your 6G Nano, because it does not support video playback. Sorry.

Video on YouTube won't play !

Video on YouTube won’t play Until I refresh the page? However, when the video ends okay then can not play the video again? Video plays only once then had to refresh the page in order to watch the same video?

Hi G-hot, were you able to solve your other issues with Youtube from your earlier thread, or is this an additional problem with Youtube? I think if you could list all the problem in one list it might be helpful.
[https://support.mozilla.org/questions/971257 Firefox 23.0.1 keeps loading the YouTube page and prevents access to My Profile]
Also, did you do the usual?
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first on Youtube and Gmail). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
Then change the site at the top from youtube.com to google.com and clear those as well.
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

IMovie 9 - Video is edited, shows the project clips, but won't play at all? Please Help

So i've finished all the editing on my project, But now it won't play. The clips show on the project reel (left side) but doesn't show the video in the viewer on the right side. Space bar just sent the red tracking bar back to the beginning but won't play. Hitting the play button makes nothing happen, and playing full screen doesn't play the video either.

While in imovie, when working on a project, I can NOT view the project in the right hand screen. I have made several videos and it has always worked before. I am not able to edit the videos because they won't play in the right hand screen.

The videos that I import (and are located on the bottom of imovie) will show up and play on the right hand screen. But if I move that clip to the actually project area it won't play in the right hand side! I somehow must have clicked something that now won't play the project videos and now plays the clips below instead! Help please I need to fix this! Everythign else works, I can still edit videos, add transitions, music, etc I just can't see it on the right hand side- so I can't edit because I can't see

See my post here on how to do this.

Clips suddenly won't play in iMovie

I have several projects I'm working on in iMovie. All of a sudden some of the clips that I'm using to create my projects won't play in iMovie any longer. When the project gets to the portion of the video where that clip is, the video freezes until the next "good" clip comes up in the timeline. All the while the music still plays over the frozen video. Also, the clips are taken from longer video clips that still play in iMovie. For example, in one case a video clip is 11 seconds long and I'm only taking the first 4 seconds. It is these 4 seconds that won't play. The rest of the clip plays fine if I bring it into the project but the first 4 seconds that I originally had in my project won't play no matter what I do. Thus I know it is not the format of the clips. Also, the clips still play fine in QuickTime, just not in iMovie.
I've tried suggestions such as deleting the iMovie preferences file (plist file), taking the movies out of the Movie folder, restarting iMovie, closing iMovie, moving my projects back to the Movies folder, and re-opening the projects to no avail.
I'm using
Mac Book with OS 10.6.4
iMovie 8.0.6 (821)
Quick Time 10.0 (114)

Video player - iPad won't play! Help?

HHi, my i player won't play, nothing will not play all of a sudden? Any solutions greatly appreciated! Thanks jo

Try closing the Videos App and reset the iPad.
In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Next, reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

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:

Video from iPhone won't play on iPad

I received a video from iPhone in an email but iPad won't play it? Any way to get it to play on iPad.

I appreciate what you are both saying -- but it is not the music that is the problem. The video itself is NOT blocked - you can view it on a computer -- but when you try to view it on ipad/iphone the message says, "not available on this platform". Here is a link to a video I did in Elements 9 on Tuesday:
http://youtu.be/06TaM22SkdE
Here is the link to the video done last night in 11:
http://youtu.be/h353KBGkodU
The "raw files" are both adobe flash.flv -- it's just not making sense...
Thank you!!!

Clip Notes won't play/no controls

I export Adobe clip notes from Premeire Pro CS4 and when one tries to open with Adobe Reader 9 there are no player controls, so the video clip cannot be played. I am running Vista 64 bit. Does Adobe Reader 9 not work with clip notes?

You would think that Adobe might do us the courtesy of letting
Prelmiere Pro users know that Clip Notes aren't going to work anymore with Adobe
Reader 9.x or later. Adobe Tech Support seems to be clueless about the issue. Does one hand know what the other is doing?

Video on website won't play

Video says it won't play on iphone 4s

bought and downlaoded hd video to my itunes library. Go to move it to my Iphone 4s and get message saying it won't play on this iphone.

Try resetting all settings/ restore the phone. But be sure to backup. These steps are the usual resolutions. I don't really know anything else that would solve this issue. I'm trying to look for an article for this but it didn't help. Maybe you can try searching youtube forums.

Video in iMovie won't play.

I have edited an entire almost 45 minute long iMovie, but when I play it, certain videos I added and edited won't play, and the screen will stay on the picture that was shown before the video. How do I fix this?

I too have this problem, includes when i add cutaways - the original video freezes and the cutaway never comes up.
