Win Media Encoder on VMWare - Video Devices does not work!!! MBP 15"
Hi,
Im trying to setup Windows Media Encoder (9 series) through Windows XP (SP3 Virtualized on VMWare 2.0.5) to make a live webcast event on internet, but my Macbook Pro can't recognize my camcorder (Sony HVRA1)
I want to setup an live webcast event but when I use an Intel Windows native computer (as I have been doing) all works gook.
I've get a new Macbook Pro 2.53GHz 15" (aluminium) and I just cant make it work on Windows Media Encoder. The camcorder just doest exist inside Windows.
First thing I've done was try to find a Win Media Encoder for Mac, but I havent found any. Only converters but they not work with live events.
I could try others encoders but Im already on a server which just run Windows.
Any tips how to make it work?
Thanks in advance.
Hi lgmmachado,
Presumably you connect the camcorder to the MBP using Firewire?
As far as I am aware one cannot access directly from a Virtual Machine a Firewire Port as it is not virtualised and no virtualisation software that I know of works directly with Firewire. I may be wrong here as I've never had the need to do so.
You would have to install BootCamp, then install Windows and then start up your Mac directly from the BootCamp/Windows partition to directly access the Firewire port from within Windows.

Installed Premiere Pro CS4 but video display does not work?
I just got my copy of CS$. After installing Premiere I found two things that seem very wrong:
1) video display does not work, not even the little playback viewer next to improted film clips located on the project / sequence window. Audio works fine.
2) the UI is way too slow for my big beefy system.
My pc is a dual boot Vista-32 and XP system with 4GB of memory installed and nvidia geforce 280 graphics board with plenty of GPU power. The CS4 is installed on the Vista-32 partition. My windows XP partition on the same PC with Premiere CS2 works great and real fast.
Any ideas how to solve this CS4 install issue?
RonI would like to thank Dan, Hunt, and Haram:
The problem is now very clear to me. The problem only shows up with video footage imported into PP CS4 encoded with "MS Video 1" codec. So this seems to be a bug. The codec is very clearly called out and supported within various menues but video with this codec just will not play in any monitor or preview window. In addition the entire product looks horrible with respect to performance while PP CS4 trys its best to play the video. Audio will start playing after about 30 seconds. And once in awhile part of video shows up at the wrong magnification before blanking out again.
My suggestion to the Adobe team: fix the bug and add some sample footage to the next release so new installations can test their systems with known footage.
My PC is brand new with the following "beefy" components:

Satellite 1800-100: video-out does not work
He,
I just installed windows XP on my old Satellite 1800-100, but now my video-out does not work anymore. So I just downloaded the latest driver, but there's no way I can get it installed. According to Windows the new driver isn't newer, so it won't let me update it. And when i try to unistall the display driver, I have to reboot before it takes effect, and wile rebooting it automaticly installs the standard driver again.
Can anybody help me?
Greets,
DaanHi
Do you mean TV- out port or monitor port? As far as I know this unit is preinstalled with WXP Home and all drivers can be also used for WXP Pro.
Did you preinstall your own OS (non recovery image)? -
Video Filter does not work.
Hello.
I have been using Final Cut Pro 4 for a while and it worked fine before. But recently, any function of Video Filter does not work. I apply them to the clip, but the image does not show any changes on Canvas.
Is the software's problem?
Thanks in advance.
YingFor a reason unknown to me, FCP's preference files (there's 3 of them) will sometimes become corrupted and need to be trashed. Usually the symptoms are things just not working as they did earlier, or weird issues like the 3 Way Color Corrector looks different than before ... stuff like that.
FCP Rescue is a freeware app (yes, you'll need to download it) that will create a backup set of preferences, thereby retaining all of your settings. Then when (not IF, but when) FCP's preferences become corrupted, you can run FCP Rescue to replace the bad set with a fresh new set.
Otherwise you can delete the files yourself (make sure FCP isn't open at the time) and the next time you launch FCP, it will revert back to the factory settings.

Audio in video messages does not work
When I record a video message for someone, the audio does not work properly. It either doesn't work at all (silence is recorded), or cuts out after a 1-2 seconds. The problem seems to be confined to the MP4 video/audio encoder used by Skype for video messages.
My webcam (Logitech HD615) works properly when used for Skype calls (including the built in microphone), and when used in other applications. With other applications, I can also record videos and the audio is captured and encoded correctly. Although the problem does not seem to be the webcam, I have re-installled the webcam drivers and I have tried changing USB ports for the webcam.
I have re-installed the latest version of Skype and verified that Windows has the latest updates (I'm using Windows 7). I have tried re-booting a number of times when debugging this issue.
I have looked at the mp4 file that's created in the temp folder when Skype records the message - the audio is missing/broken regardless of what player I use. This, and the fact that the webcam works makes me believe that the problem is in the Skype use of the audio/video encoder, or the encoder itself.
Any ideas on how to solve this problem?
Thanks,
K.
Solved!
Go to Solution.When you change the USB ports, make sure not to use USB 3.0 ports. I had a very similar issue with Logitech c920 webcam. Changing the port to USB 2.0 has solved the issue.

I have a spare Mac Pro here so I decided to remove the video card and put it in the one I'm using. Both machines were purchased in '09 and use the same video card (ATI Radeon HD 2600). The two monitors I have hooked into the original video card work fine but the monitors I hooked into the newly placed video card are not working. Under the About This Mac specs >> PCI cards it shows up and says driver is installed. Is there anything special you need to do to get a second video card to work?
Thanks.I tried the SMC reset. I removed the card and reseated it. I'm seating it in slot 2 because that's the only other one that is x16. The other slots 3-4 are x4. Still nothing is showing up. When I go to System Preferences >> Displays >> Detect Dispalys nothing happens. The two displays plugged into the original video card work fine but the newly installed on does not show up. Here is what the Mac Info is detecting. Maybe this makes sense to someone. Not sure what MSI is referring to and the second video card is reading as "display" instead of "ATI Radeon HD 2600". Link speed on the second card is half that of the original.

My video zoom does not work on my iphone or ipad after IOS 7.0.2 update.
After updating iPad and iPhone 4S to IOS7.0.2 the video zoom function does not work. I have also lost the function to zoom on video playback.
Is somebody from Apple monitoring these forums? I do have the same problem, i just recently noticed that the zoom in my video camera is no longer available since I upgraded my 4S iPhone to the newest version.

Google talk audio/video plugin used to work fine on Firefox 3, but does not work anymore on Firefox 4. Every time I click on the video chat icon on google talk, I am asked to install the plugin, even if I have already installed it before. The plugin works properly on the latest version of IE on the same PC.
Thanks for your help. I do not want to switch to Chrome or Opera, but if this bug is not fixed, I will have to.Not sure if installing IE 9 did it or not but I now see the camera in IE, FF and Chrome. Could be Facebook fixed the problem also.
Thanks for the reply.

VMware Fusion 2 does not work with lion
I need the VMware Fusion to run my dictonary on the Mac. I have up to now Fusion2 and this does not work with the lion.

VMWare and Parallels hook themselves deep with the OS and are not standard applications.
Parallels broke in the 10.6.8 update, caused a lot of headaches around here.
I don't think they follow Apple's rules too well.
Fusion might be a bit less feature rich, but it seems they are more complaint. Also Apple sells Fusion and likely uses it themselves.
Both are excellent of course. -
Tecra S1 video out does not work
Hi,
I tried to connect my TS1 via cinch to a beamer. Unfortunately because of other reasons I can not use VGA.
However I do not get any signal at all. I tried nearly everything. I installed Windows XP with Toshiba Recovery CDs again, but it does not work either.
Is there anyone knowing what to do?
Best wishes,
Markus924hi Markus924,
do you have a picture on the internal lcd?
via chinch to a beamer - this wont work...
you get a pal/ntsc signal from this connector.. i am not sure if your beamer can handle this sort of signal...
take a vga cable to try *and* install the "fn-f5" tool from toshiba to switch the picure to external display. -
Media encoder version 4.20.006 does not open
I finished editing a program on Premier pro CS4 version 4.21 with a resolution of 1920 X 1080 60i . The images are from a Sony EX1 camera. I needed to export this edit to a 4:3 Avid edting suite and so I chiose first in Quick Time. When I finished I chose .avi with a crop 4:3 720 X 480 .
When I used Fie/ Export /media a media settings display appeared. When I checked the setting I pushed th OK button and the the media encoder started to open, the display did not show completely and a Microsofy error display came out. I agreed to send the information about the problem and the media encoder started to open again and the same problem.
I close Premiere and tried to start media encoder by itlsef... the same happend.

I went to the Microsoft page and it states that they have no idea of the problem. I tried to contact suppot by Adobe and what I get is the FAQ.
I reinstalled all again ) Premiere Pro CS 4 and added the 4.21 upgrade and also the 4.20 Media encoder upgrade.
The results that I am showing are afyert I did all the reinstalltion.
Please help on this matter because I cannot export anythingI found the answer in the Adobe document
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/405/kb405950.html
This document shows the case of the many errores I suffered with Premiere Pro CS4. But my real problem was Media Encoder CS4 . Well I started to use the same steps of this article .
Step 5 does not apply.
Step 6 applies only in step 2. "Rename the 4.0 folder (for example, to Old 4.0) in C:\Documents and Settings\[your user name]\Application Data\Adobe\Premiere Pro. " There you look for Media Encoder and rename the 4.0 folder.
When you open again Media Encoder, it creates anew folder and PRESTO !!!
It works again !!!

Media Encoder Greater that 7.0 does not recongnise SD footage with correct pixel aspect ratio
Hello,
I logged this bug with Adobe last year but even through the latest releases the bug still remains and is a real issue for anyone editing in SD via Premiere Pro CC.
Effectvely when you create a PAL sequence within Premiere Pro CC using SD 720x576 pixels (4:3) you have 2 options to export, either Queue or Export. If you export the footage directly from the PP application to MPEG2 SD then the resulting files are perfect, however if you use the queue option and send it to Media Encoder then the resulting files are incorrectly interpreted and the resulting file looks squashed. I suspect the Media Encoder is defaulting to Square pixels and not 1.09xx which is the default for PAL SD 4:3
The issue only started on Media Encoder version 7.1 but I also checked 7.2 and this still has the bug.
I can't believe this is not effecting a lot of people and its taking so long to resolve. Adobe at the time acknowledged the issue but did not provide a time scale to fix.
If anyone has any words of wisdom I would love to hear from you. Maybe I am missing a simple workaround ?? Which could be to just export and NOT queue, however because I use the batch function a lot this is not always viable.
thanks
SteveHi Tom,
thanks for the quick response. I'll attach two screenshots -- one from PP and one from AME, both showing the same test chart, but distorted in AME.
Basically the given parameters are:
Sequence is D1/DV PAL, 720x576, PAR 1.0940, framerate 25
Export settings are: MXF OP1a, resolution + framerate same as sequence, IMX 50 PAL.
If you still require the preset file, I'll send that separately.
all the best

Video capture does not work Java 1.5 or 1.6
I could not run jmstudio on 1.5, but on 1.6 I could, and jmregistry says there is a device with a Locator "v4l://0" and jmstudio can display the video. Yet my old program that worked with Java 1.4 can not now capture the video any more, createDataSource(locator) in the code:
locator = MediaLocator("v4l://0");
source = javax.media.Manager.createDataSource(locator);
throws NoDataSourceException, that says something about "Could not configure video device". Is the code bad? Or is there something other broken? JMFHOME is set correctly.Where is your jmf.properties file? Do you have the performance pack installed?
Does JMStudio work. (if you're on linux w/ java 5.0 use: java -Dawt.toolkit=sun.awt.motif.MToolkit JMStudio)
My bet is that you don't have jmf.properties in your current dir or the camera hasn't been added to your properties.
Another idea:
try this before your code:
try {
Class.forName("V4LAuto").newInstance();
} catch(Exception e) {}in order to autodetect the camera.
Peace
