Won't Playback 2K DPX

I see other peple on the forum have no prob playing back 2K DPX. I'm running an 8 core/x1900 with dual raid and can't get anything close to realtime DPX playback even with no color correction. What seems to happen is that the preview monitor displays 3 fps while updating the cut line. In other words if I have a 10 second sequence, in 10 seconds of playback I'll see fr.1, fr.8, fr.16, fr.24...etc. Is there some setting I'm missing? Also, Quicktime is playing back full resolution 2K DPX log files. Why won't color perform similarly?
Proxies no help....they seem to play back at 100 per second? Also proxies squished aspect ratio with picture in picture effect. Is this normal?
Mac Pro 8 Core Mac OS X (10.4.9) MB Pro 2

make sure you select "maintain framerate" in prefs.. or else I get 60fps in pal :-/
Not sure on DPX as not tried that yet.

Premiere Pro CC Won't playback with an audio interface (Scarlett 2i2)

Pretty much when i want to playback my videos they won't, when i change the audio hardware to my computer speakers it works but with my external audio interface it won't playback.

Hi,

Macbook Pro Retina

Premiere Pro Won't Playback Video

I am using Premiere Pro CC 7.2.1 on an iMac OS X 10.9.
Any video won't playback in the preview tray or the other tray (top right). Nothing will playback. This was working a few weeks ago, but now nothing plays back. What can I do? I have already tried reinstalling Premiere and I even formatted my iMac, but to no avail.
Also when I press play, the stop button appears, but when I press it, it doesn't go back to the play button. Please, I need Premiere for work, any ideas?

Are you using external speakers for playback? I have some Genelec's that plug into the computer via firewire, and occasionally I have the same problem you do. To fix it I unplug the speakers from the computer, plug them back into a different firewire port, then restart the computer. You can test if this is the issue by going to Preferences, Audio Hardware, and then selecting either your headphones or internal speakers. If playback works, then try unplugging/replugging your speakers.
It's a hacky fix, but it's worked for me (in fact it worked for this afternoon).

Premiere pro won't playback

Guys,
I've got a problem with premiere, when i start it, the source monitor is white and it wont playback my project. And after a couple of seconds premiere is not responding anymore and quits. I've tried to close the source monitor but still won't playback...
Starting a new project is not solving te problem.
Reinstalling premiere doesn't either.
Any ideas???

Mehmet,
The "white screen" is a classic result of an obsolete video driver.
Let's get that one out of the way first. What is the make/model of your video card?
What is the number/date of the installed video driver?
Is that the latest driver FROM the mfgr's. Web site, say nVidia, or ATI/AMD? Do not rely on the OS, or any utility to tell you if you have the latest driver - check that out for yourself.
Good luck,
Hunt

I.O.S 8.1.3 iPhone won't playback video.

Hi,
I have an H.264 Quicktime that I was sent via wetransfer however the video won't playback on my iPad or on iPhone. My iPhone is on i.O.S 8.1.3. It also won't playback on i.O.S 8.1.2. The file will playback on and iPhone with i.O.S 7. I've converted the file to an mp4 specifically for iPads and it also won't playback. It does play on the i.O.S 7. I've tried accessing the file not through we transfer but through an ftp site and the same applies. No playback. Does anyone know about this being a bug in i.O.S 8 or if there is a work around to get the video to play on i.O.S 8?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Louise

Good Morning Denise -
Sorry to hear you are having issues connecting to your Wi-Fi network. I'll include a few more things that you can try to troubleshoot this below. The first thing that I'm wondering is if you cannot connect to your Wi-Fi at home -- are you able to connect to a different Wi-Fi network (at work, a local coffee shop, etc.)? That would be one of the first things to try.
Turning the modem and router in your house of and then on is also a common step as it "reinitializes" everything. Hopefully, one of the steps below will help you with this.
If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch won’t connect to a Wi-Fi network - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204051
Restart.
For more help, try restarting your device, router, or cable/DSL modem. After each step, check to see if you fixed the issue.
• Restart your iOS device.
• Unplug your router and plug it back in.
• Unplug your cable or DSL modem and plug it back in.
Still can’t connect?
Reset your Network Settings. Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. This also resets Wi-Fi networks and passwords, cellular settings, and VPN and APN settings that you’ve used before.
Get more help
Try connecting to a Wi-Fi network in a different location. If your device can connect, you’ll need to get help with your Wi-Fi network. If it can’t connect to any Wi-Fi networks, contact Apple.

P2 files won't playback...

Has anyone had this issue. I am trying to playback some clips that originated from a HVX200. I used log and transfer to bring into fcp v6 and took a small clip and cut it down to say 20 secs moved it to the timeline and hit enter. The clip won't playback. When I hit enter again it stops on whatever frame it end on and updates to that frame but won't play throughout.
Any ideas.

Update:
A/V Settings
-Playback Output
Mirror on Desktop or set to none...
When I clicked on none it would play in monitor. When I clicked on output to Digital Cinema and didn't have set to mirror on desktop it did not show up. I'd hit Enter and it would not playback. When I hit enter again it would update to the frame it stopped on.
So basically the settings in the A/V Settings Tab need to reflect the output you want...so it is now working.
Thanks for your help...

Premiere CC 2014 won't playback

Hi,
I am working on a piece utilizing mostly still images (a mixture of PNGs, JPGs, and TIFFs) which have been animated using the motion properties. This was originally a FCP7 project that I moved over to PPro via XML when my company migrated to the Adobe CC. Starting yesterday it won't play back at all; I will press the spacebar to start playback and the play button in the program monitor will flash to the stop icon, like it's trying to play, but then it doesn't do anything. Sometimes it won't even refresh the program monitor when I move the CTI around the sequence. I've tried restarting the program and the computer and a few times it would resume refreshing the program monitor when I move the CTI, but it still won't play back.
I am running Premiere Pro 2014.0.1 on a Mac Pro with OSX 10.8.5, 2 x 2.4 Ghz Quad-Core Intel Xeon CPU, 14 GB RAM, NVIDIA Quadro 4000 GPU with 2 GB VRAM.
Any help you can give will be most appreciated!
-Hunter

Hi lastminutevp,
Thank you so much for the screenshot. please create a new sequence by making a right click on the Video and select "New Sequence from clip" option.
Check the playback in the new Sequence. If it works copy the complete timeline to the new sequence.
Thank you.

Playback of DPX sequences with quadro nvidia

I am considering buying a nvidia quadro 4000 for mac to playback my 1080P DPX sequences out threw a BlackMagic HD Extreme 3D card.
At the moment i can do it when i select 1/2 Resolution in playback from Premiere CS 5.5.
My disk speed is about 300MB pr sek so that is not the problem.
Does annybody know if the Quadro card will give me any aceleration with that and make me able to play it back at full res ??
Thank you

> Hardware acceleration doesn't make it easier to "play" any media files (assuming they match the sequence). What get's accelerated are certain effects, scaling, deinterlacing, blending modes, etc. But not simple playback.
That's correct.
The graphics card doesn't help at all with decoding, nor does it help with reading the data off the disk faster. The reason that people talk about the GPU helping with formats like RED is that you are nearly always scaling RED footage down to use it (since you're almost certainly not using a 4K sequence, and you're almost certainly not previewing on a 4K monitor). The GPU helps enormously with scaling operations if you have a card that Premiere Pro can use for CUDA processing.
DPX image sequences are slow to preview for two reasons: data rate off of the hard disk and CPU speed for the relatively slow decoder. Fast disks and fast CPUs are what you need for fast DPX playback.

I have a brand new iMac that does not have iDVD. Made a move on iMovie installed a 3rd party burn prog. but DVD won't playback on my regular dvd player. Need to burn one that will. Help!

My new iMac did not come with iDVD as they are not using iDVD any longer. I made a movie that I needed to put on a DVD that would play on any external DVD player. After calling Apple twice, they recommened a 3rd party program so I downloaded "Burn-osx" and made the DVD; however when i insert it into my player connected to the TV it gives the message "disk error --playback feature may not be available on this disk". Ok--now what? I am up against a time line here--need the DVD for a graduation party! Help! What am I not doing correctly?

I have a brand new iMac
If you are still within your 15 day return period. Call Apple they will sent out iDVD at no charge. (There are no realistic substitutes.)
Nicely explain that you may return the computer without iDVD. That usually does the trick. You MUST speak to a senior advisor to get a free copy. The first tier people cannot do it.

800-692-7753
If that doesn't work you can purchase iLife 11 (includes iDVD) on disk.
IDVD is a wonderful piece of software and well worth the low cost of $40.

they recommened a 3rd party program so I downloaded "Burn-osx"
Yes, there are programs that will put a movie on a DVD. I have tried most of the other substitutes including Toast, Burn, and others. None of them come anywhere near the ease-of-use and power of iDVD. IDVD is specifically designed to work with iMovie. Get iDVD.

My exported mpeg2-dvd m2v file won't playback an image in Encore CS6 or QT?

I've also posted in Encore, but this group sees a lot more traffic and supposed to deliver tomorrow.
Exported media as mpg2-dvd from PP CC 2014, imported as timeline with the .wav into Encore as suggested here: Adobe TV
I don't know if this is an export issue, or an import-into-Encore issue. I get sound but no image in the Encore monitor window. The m2v file plays back in VLC, but no image in QT, and attempted playback gets me spinning beach balls.
Thoughts? Just need to burn a DVD for client delivery tomorrow. Yes, a DVD.
I'm running osx 10.9.5, 2.7GHz i7/16GB RAM MBP with a couple of SSDs in it, and a Thunderbolt RAID 1 for media.
Thanks for any leads.

If you can post screen grabs of the Export Settings and Encore screen, might be of help. Have not run into this before, no video in Encore.
Thanks

Video thumbnails scrambled, won't playback (v3.4.3)

My video thumbnails in Aperture (version 3.4.3) are scrambled. Sometimes I can see part of a reference thumbnail frame (often in monochrome or with a single color overlay, like green), sometimes it's just all snow.
1) I just restored my mac mini from a time machine backup.
2) I also just imported an iPhoto library
If I browse to a pre-existing (before Time Machine restore) Aperture project, the correct thumbnail appears briefly before changing to the scrambled version.
When I select the video for playback all I get is a blank Viewer window (not video content, no controls, no playback).
If I browse to the source file via finder the video thumbnail displays and the video plays back correctly.
I have tried:
1) verifying and repairing disk permissions
2) repairing Aperture permissions
3) repairing the Aperture database
4) rebuilding the Aperture database
5) regenerating thumbnails (select video Photos->Regenerate Thumbnails) (thumbnail changes, still scrambled)
I don't use Aperture often so I'm not 100% sure when this started, but it seems to be after this current restore as supported by the brief correct appearance of old video thumbnails before they update to the scrambled version.
OS X 10.8.2
Aperture 3.4.3
Example of affected video:
IMG_0002.MOV
QuickTime movie
5MB
640x480
Duration: 00:11
Capture Source: iPhone 3GS

I suggest to check the video codecs you have installled; if you use Perian or have a flip-camera, you may have an incompatible video codec installed, see: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4155
Why was a TimeMachine restore necessary? And did you use any helper/uninstaller/cleaner utilities, before you made the backup or after restoring? Sometimes this kind of helpers remove too much. I this case you may need to reinstall Mt. Lion to restore missing system components, that are not included in your TimeMachine backup.
Have a look at this thread Re: Import video to Aperture library on Mountain Lion,
and also at the post: Re: Import video to Aperture library on Mountain Lion in the same thread.
To reinstall from the "Recovery partition" see Linc Davis's post here: Re: Garageband doesn't open in Mac Mini mid 2011

Premiere CC won't playback on my second monitor

I can use the second monitor for putting anything else (like a window) but it doesn't playback the footage I'm using like before. The problem started when I updated Premiere several months ago and I can't find a solution. It does recognize the monitor and it is selected for playback; I've tried turning that off, rebooting Premiere and then turning it on again and nothing happens. Also tried the "Enable Transmission" option, wich is on also, but still doesn't work.

What is your exact brand/model graphics adapter (ATI or nVidia or ???)
What is your exact graphics adapter driver version?
Have you gone to the vendor web site to check for a newer driver?
-If Windows, do NOT rely on Windows Update to have current driver information
-you need to go direct to the vendor web site and check updates for yourself

HT4589 fcp 10.1.1 won't playback

FinalCutPro 10.1.1 on MacBookPro with 4 gigs ram stalls and will not play back. Yesterday I was able to reboot and it played, today it just will not play although eacc clip in this three minute video has been redered. Seems like I was able to throw away certain pref files in the past to get it up and running, but I don't remember which ones. Any help is appreciated.

How is your free stage space? Do you have a separate drive for your llibraries and media?
In the Viewer Display dropdown, set playback to Better Performance.
Open up Activity Monitor to see what's going on with memory while this playback issue is going on.. Check the swaps info,
4 GB is cutting it close with 10.1. If your model permits, increase that to 8 GB.

HD QT Pixlet won't playback well on Intel based systems?

Hi all,
I've been using Pixlet for a few years with no troubles
on G5 computers at HD resolutions (1920x1080). I recently tried playback on our new Mac Pro and the playback is horrible.
Is there something which prevents Intel based Macs from using Pixlet at HD?

QT Kirk, you are mistaken. Pixlet is a great HD codec and was made for HD purposes. Been using it for years on many movies.
Bottom line, seems to be that there is some hardware in the PowerPC computers that is not in the Intel versions OR the code for Pixlet is not optimized for Intel chips yet and this prevents Intel based computers from playingback Pixlet at the proper frame rates if is is over 720x486 resolution.
Looks like we're going to hold on to our dual G5's for a while so we can playback 1920x1080 Pixlet with no trouble.

.mov files won't playback in quicktime 7.2 after archive and install

I just did an archive and install, because I was having a few problems with the Safari beta.
However since doing so it has been a complete nightmare. So many things stopped working. I'm guessing I had them installed on the system and not on my user.
So now after getting most thing back up and running, .mov files won't play in quicktime 7.2 an annoying 3ivx pop up appears which leads to a dead link.
So I checked the .mov format and they are 3ivx, but how do I install and from where do I get the codec??

Perian
http://perian.org/#detail
It's free and most people use this to play off the wall codecs...3ivx.
Please read the information on the web page on how to install and use. In the download there a help page.
