Cannot import mov files in AE.

This problem appeared from time to time. It causes several things that I can't do in my After Effect, but I really have no idea how I can solve this problem.

Problem 1: wait long to open the AE, it hangs on the core of media initialization and takes about 10-15 minutes to get through.

Problem 2: impossible to import the mov files and if I import the mov to the AE project, this pop-up comes

"After effects error: file 'file name.mov' cannot be imported - this 'MooV file is damaged or not supported". ".

Problem 3: cannot display the model as mov. and just this pop up global warming

"After Effects: one of the output modules could not be imported." It has been reset to use the default setting for the selected file format. »

I read a few threads, and I knew this could cause communication blocked between AE and QT. But I check my QT, it's version 7.6.6 and I have installed firewall software, communication is therefore correct (I guess, since I can play normally mov file and not the home warm message that "QuickTime is not installed on this system...) »).

Another thread said may because of the tripartite component in the QT library. This may seem reasonable, cause I install certain converters to convert before wmv and avi formats.

Here are the components of the QT library:

AviImporter.component

FFusion.component

iChatTheaterPreview.component

IMXCodec.component

XviD_Codec.component

I had the same problem, and so far, this solution worked for me. (touch wood)

Try to set your default player for QuickTime .mov files.  (Mine has been set to Windows Media Player)

  • Right-click on one of the mov files that you encounter a problem at the opening in AE.
  • Select 'Open with' and select 'choose program by default... "downstairs.
  • Select Quick Time. (Make sure the "Always use the selected program to open this kind of file" is checked).
  • Restart your computer.
  • Open AE and see if it works.

    Hello, guenoun.

    I seem to have the same problem as tantoe but when I clicked on the link in your message, it took me to the page, but the person's recommendation was not good; It (don't remember the name) had two links to click & when I clicked on the two I was redirected to a page that says that the page could not be found.

    The song with that I have a problem is "I'm in love (with a killer)" by Jeffree Star &, as with all my other audio files that I did NOT have this problem with, is mp3 format. I have a video in mind with this song & pictures I saved star but Windows Movie Maker cannot import it.

    If there is anything you could do, advice you could give, I would really appreciate it. This is my favorite song by Jeffree Star & it drives me crazy not being able to import it into Movie Maker. :-/

  • import .mov files in pictures for Mac?

    I took a few videos a short holiday with my digital camera. Saved on my EyeFi Mobi card before sending them on my iPad.

    Now that I'm Home I want to import videos into pictures on my iMac.

    I sent them from my iPad to my iMac via AirDrop. But I'm having trouble getting the files. When I open them a black box appears which says conversion. They seem to be JPEG files now, not the MOV files.

    I want to import these movies Photos for Mac, but I'm stuck.

    Any suggestions?

    Connect the iPad to your Mac with USB cable and use Image Capture to download video files to iPad.  Make sure they are playable in Quicktime player and then import them into your library.

  • No sound on the imported .mov files

    Since WMP on Vista does not recognize the .mov file formats I had Dell technical support install pack of 495 s K-lite codec. Now I can open and read files .mov (imported from a digital camera KODAK Z710), but there is no sound. The speakers are very well, all the other videos from the internet do not have an audio problem, nor play CD and DVD have audio problems. Only files .mov that came from my camera do not play sound. Dell support diagnosed my computer and it works perfectly diagnosed. They said that it is a problem of 3rd party. I spoke in support of KODAK, but they can not help me with a computer problem. BTW, his play on the camera itself.
    I am at a loss. I have been around surfing the net for hours and hours, but did not finde any solution, just many similar problems.
    Nobody knows how to solve this problem without me needing a degree in computer science? Thank you.

    Windows Media Player is not a good choice to play .mov files.

    .mov is the Apple QuickTime format... so would be the best player
    Apple Quick Time player being... I suspect a copy provided with your
    camera.

    The free VLC Media Player can also be worth a try.

    VLC Media Player
    http://www.videolan.org/

    Best bet IMHO... convert the .mov to .avi using the free Panzera
    MOV to AVI. Then you can read the files in most of the media
    Player and if you ever decide to use Movie Maker, they'll work here
    also.

    Pazera Free MOV to AVI Converter
    http://www.Pazera-software.com/products/mov-to-AVI-Converter/

    After you download... Open the program...
    (no installation required)

    Drag and drop one or several .mov files...

    Choose an output directory...

    Select... WMV AVI - Video Codec - version 1 (WMP 7)...

    Convert...

  • Import mov files in PP - video won't load, audio only

    Hi friends

    I have .mov files exported from FCPX. The codec is dvh5. When I import to the first, the video will not show or listen to samples. Audio is fine. I tried Adobe Media Encoder, but same problem there - no video preview, no video export. Also, the same files play on QuickTime. I'm on Mac.

    Grateful for any ideas

    Please try this handbrake.

    Thank you

  • No sound when you import .mov files in PPCC

    Hello

    I'm almost at the end of my rope.  I'm working on a project that uses .mov files.  Problem is that every time that I import them into the bin, no audio appears (not even in the preview window).  I tried to use the media encoder to make a copy of the files to .mp3 and .wav format, but the files just released silent.  None of the waveforms or whatever it is.  Then I tried to encode as Quicktime, PP does not recognize the file type.  I am now at a loss.  Honestly, I don't have a problem with it until this last update.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    I installed filmic Pro on my iPhone and pulled two clips, one with AAC audio and the other with audio AIFF. Of course, one with audio AIFF lost audio when importing Premiere Pro and still when I dragged into Media Encoder. Seems to be a bug that's worth logging: feature request/Bug Report Form

    Could be a problem with film recording Pro with audio AIFF, could be a problem elsewhere.

    Moral of the story for filmmakers: always test your workflow before shooting. (This should not be a new morality either.)

  • Cannot open .mov files in Photoshop CS5

    Hello

    I want to create an animation in Photoshop CS5, but I need to import an audio file to help me with the drawings. I exported audio in .mov with Quick Time Player 7 but when I want to open the file in PSCS5, there is an error message: "unable to do this because QuickTime 7.1 or later is required"

    Please, what is someone has a solution to my problem?

    Thank you.

    I don't I remember not how video worked in CS5, but the .mov files need Quicktime.  Whence the audio or video file?  If YouTube, for instance, then the Free YouTube Downloader app is a godsend.  You can retrieve full in MP4 or just video audio to MP3.  If I remember correctly, it's one who installs annoying who is attempting to install the browser toolbars etc then follow the installation carefully.  It is a windows application.

    Free YouTube Downloader - free download and software reviews - CNET Download.com

    If you got the MOV file, incidentally, then install Quicktime, or convert to MP4 with brake hand.  HandBrake is best friend all editors video and used by professionals around the world.  It will be same ripper DVD to MP4.

  • CANNOT IMPORT PNG FILE IN VERSION 9 OF PHOTOSHOP CS2

    When I try to import a .png file in PS, I get the message: "Could not complete your request because the file format module cannot parse the file."

    Is it possible to import the .png files in PS CS2?

    And otherwise: I studied him "lossless bmp" and I can't get a definitive answer on the question of whether the .bmp files are lossless. Can anyone confirm that they are lossless? In this case I could use instead of .png to import .bmp files to Psalm

    Looks like it's the question photoshop cs2 is having to open the images if you have changed the jpeg to png file extension.

    Change the file extension does not change the file type.

    In other words even if the extension is .png, it's always a jpeg file.

    If you come to use Save Image as in firefox and use the jpeg by default as it suggests, your jpeg download, not re-register and recompression, AFAIK.

    Then, you can open the JPEG in photoshop cs2 and save it as png or psd without doing further damage to the file.

  • Why the Mac (Adobe Revel) app support import mov files?

    Mov files are grey-out when I am tempted to choose to import.

    The Mac app version 1.10 is released before that we supported the video, this is why you see a fixed version of your video there. We have released video first on iPhone/iPad and adoberevel.com.

  • Only Audio stereo imported .mov file plays in 1 channel

    Hello:

    Only, I imported a .mov file, which, when you look at its properties, said that the Audio is STEREO at 48000 Hz. Yet, when I play it, the sound comes only from 1 channel and the other speaker is silent.  I looked everywhere in the forum to find answers, but none of them seem to work.  Basically, I want to just duplicate the left channel and copy it to the right channel, so the same sound can be heard from two speakers.  (I think that the person who registered used a mono microphone and somehow he went alone to one of the stereo channels).

    Any ideas?

    Use the audio effect of fill (right or left). This will duplicate the right channel on the vacuum.

  • Cannot load MOV files within PDF documents in Firefox

    Tell me this has nothing to do with XP, but my problem report on the Firefox support site, you can find at the following link, https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/831712#answer-199161, gave no solution, then maybe you can suggest a. And what relates to XP because the problem does not occur in Firefox on Windows 7 or Vista, but only on XP.

    I have a website that loads a PDF file in the browser. Within each PDF are links to MOV files that should open in floating windows. Unfortunately, XP when I click on these links I tells me that the file is not found. It seems clear that the cause of this is that XP is looking for the MOV files to the same directory that he downloaded the PDF. The links do not specify the directory of the MOV on the server because they are all in the same directory where the PDF file. If you change the link to include the way full on the server, starting with http://, then the url www.aslparataxis.info, then the directory where the relevant PDF file and finally the name of the MOV file, then the link works successfully. But it would be a huge job to change all these links in this way, since there are 540 of them. And their incorporation into PDF files is out of the question because he too in each PDF, allowing a very long download time. In addition, if the material on the site have been moved to another directory, all links must be redone.

    Internet Explorer doesn't have this problem on XP. And Firefox doesn't have this problem in Windows 7 or Vista. Again, I know that it should have more to do with Firefox Windows, but anyone can shed some light on how I can get Firefox (or Windows?) to know that on the server for these MOV files, it should look like?

    Thanks for your help.
