Video Plays for only 1 Second in Premiere CS5 Viewer

Hello,
I am on an IMac OS X 10.6.8, 2,66 GHz Intel core due , 4Go Memory    
I am very new to Mac's and I have been trying to use Premiere CS5 but I am faced with a problem.
When I import my video to the timeline and press play it only plays for a very short time.
I have seen that others already had the similar problem and I tried to fix it by deleting the com.apple.audio.AggregateDevices.ptlist , but it seems I dont have it.
I even tried trough the Terminal.
So could any of you help me out ? It zould be much appreciated
Sorry for the bad english, I'm french ^^
thanks in advance
Phil

If you have a red line over the timeline after importing a video and before adding any effects... your project is wrong for your video... read above about codecs
Once you know exactly what it is you are editing, report back with that information... and your project setting, and if there is a red line above the video in the timeline, which indicates a mismatch between video and project

  • Downloaded videos play for 10 seconds then iTunes shuts down

    Have downloaded 2 videos from Music Store. They work well on my new iPod 30GB, but will not play on my PC. Reasonably good spec PC - AMD Athlon XP2000+ processor, 512 RAM, 128MB Graphics RAM (nVididia GeForce fx5200)and I have no problem playing DVDs on my PC. The video clips play for 10 seconds then iTunes shuts down giving my a Windows error message. Any thoughts?

    Since downloading the video from iTunes Music store my songs downloaded from Nusic Store will no longer play either. It prompts my to enter my password (which I have checked and changed) but they still will not play

  • Screen goes black for 3 seconds in premiere CS5 every time I click

    This is the first time I run Premiere CS5... On a fresh system install.
    I suspect it's not playing well with my video card, a Radeon HD 4870 with 1GB Ram... Very standard stuff.  I am running window 7 64 bit with 12 gb RAM, a week old build. I have all the updates and latest drivers, sigh. After Effects CS5 runs fine, Maya 2010 runs fine, Quicktime runs fine... What gives.
    Here's what happens: I only need to launch Premiere, right away I get the problem. The screen goes black 3 seconds before the prompt to create a new project. Once I create the project, the application workspace comes in, but if I click any menu, drag a tool window (whatever they are called), the screen goes black 3 seconds then comes back. Its basically impossible to work...Huge drag.
    Update:
    The problem stopped after I went into the 'device settings' in preferences and set the device to 'none'....When I clicked on the device settings panel, my monitor went black, and there was a 'no signal' warning that came up, as if the DVI-D  signal was dead. I was able to restore the signal by hitting ctrl-alt-del which switched me out of Premiere onto the desktop. Clearly, there is some issue with video. I switched back into Premiere and was able then to set to no devices.
    I'm not doing any capture at the moment, but I can only pray that it's some sort of bug related to not having a device connected? I plan on bringing footage from a RED in the next month. I upgraded to CS5 specifically so that I could use more than 4 gigs of RAM and for the new features.

    THank you for sending this.
    I followed the benchmark directions, and I get an error at the final step
    when I run the script:
    line 99
    Error: path not found
    I tried for an hour different things, namely to re run the whole test
    procedure, deleting the output files, etc... he script is looking for
    something in the preview files that it is not finding. I think the procedure
    was written for a previous version, because the metadata settings are
    different in my version of AME, and I don't know how much that affects it.
    Also, AME increments the file names when it renders them so that I did not
    get the right output file names at the first render. I had to turn off
    incrementing and manually name each clip before rendering. The vb scricpt
    looks for these names, so I understand it is important. I can't figure out,
    however, what the script is looking for in the preview folder and not
    finding.
    After spending almost two hours trying to troubleshoot the script, I gave
    up. I can tell you tho that it takes about 6-7 minutes on my box to encode
    all the videos.

  • In Itunes store, song preview plays for only 5-10 seconds and then stops. Songs in my Itunes library play start to finish.

    In Itunes store, song preview plays for only 5-10 seconds and then stops. Songs in my Itunes library play entirely from start to finish.

    My Itunes previews have been playing fully now for the past few days. After trying every suggestion possible to fix the problem of 5-10 second previews, I took the advice on one feed to use OpenDNS for your network internet connection. There are internet sites that will instruct you how to do it. Just Google "opendns for (your operating system)". I have Windows XP and followed a video instruction at www.top-windows-tutorals.com/using-opendns.html. Afterward, close your browser and then flush the DNS Resolver cache; Start/Run, type CMD in the open field, click OK, in resulting window type ipconfig/flushdns, press return on keyboard. No guarantees, but my browser is faster and my Itunes previews are playing fully so far. But I still shudder every time I hit the preview button.

  • Purchased album, one song is missing and others only play for 40 seconds max.

    I purchased Emilie Autumn's album "Opheliac (The Deluxe Edition)" last night. The third song ("Liar") is missing, and the other songs play for 40 seconds max. I tried to download the album again, but the Store only tells me my downloads are complete. What's wrong with my album and how will I get it fixed?
    I can't believe iTunes doesn't let you redownload an purchased album.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try deleting the problematic file (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app (or video app) on your iOS device.
    If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.

  • Can't import songs and ones in library only play for 45 seconds

    I'm in the process of moving my music collection to a new computer with a bigger hard drive. I installed the latest version of iTunes on the new computer, copied all the folders and contents of the itunes folder to the new computer in the same location.
    I bought a couple new songs successfully but now I can't add any of the files from my previous computer to the new library. I was able to import a few songs that iI purchased when on my original machine but now they only play for 45 seconds and jump to the next song in the playlist (if check) And now when I drag and drop songs on the Library to import them absolutely nothing happens.
    And yes, the new computer is authorized and the permissions on the folders are read / write.
    Any one have an idea of how to fix this? If not, I just going to burn all my songs to CD and import them that way and say so long to iTunes... just too much BS to just move a music library!

    Sounds like the PC's authroization file is messed up, or else the iTUnes preferences files.
    Follow the directions in this article, the SC Info file holds the PC authroization for iTMS songs.

    And also deleted these 2 preferecnes files:
    C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref
    C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref
    They will all get rebuilt when you open iTunes the next time. It should ask for authorization one last time, is all.

  • HT1567 trying to preview song but only plays for 5 seconds

    When i preview a song it will only play for 5 seconds instead of the 1min/half it allows. I 've never had this problem before. I update the software, but it still will not allow me to listen to the song no more tham 5 seconds

    I have had this problem for quite awhile.  Sometimes the preview plays all the way through, or not.  I had it in the previous version and now the new version.  There is no help from Apple/iTunes.  It seems odd that WE must continue to try and find the solution to THEIR errors without any comments or help from Apple.
