Error importing file mpeg-1?

When you try to add mpeg1 files to show the queue, SOUL 5.0.1.0 shows a messagebox "Import file error" "error during decompression of the source file.

These mpeg1s are directly from my Sony DSC - N2 point - & - shoot. GSpot identifies as video codec, mpeg1 & 32 kHz, 64kbs, mono layer2 audio. VirtualDub has no problems with these files.

Any ideas?  I would like to download them here, but as mpeg1s uncompressed, they are 41 & 19 MB.

Hi Peter,.

Thanks for posting the clip. I tested and was able to reproduce your results.  In Adobe Media Encoder 5.0.1 installed as part of the CS5 Design Premium Windows 7 64-bit with QuickTime 7.6.9, coding of the F4V (FLV or H.264) file was very very slow.  Looks like the SOUL's duplicate images several times, which was confirmed when I stopped the encoding and examined the partial file.

The problem is, however, moved on a similar computer with CS5 Production Premium installed.

The reason for that, if I understand the workings of the SOUL (I like to think that I do), has to do with what codecs are installed with the SOUL, which depends on what Adobe products you have installed.  Only Production Premium, After Effects and Premiere Pro include the MPEG codecs for SOUL decode MPEG files natively.  Design Premium, Flash or any other product from Adobe that installs the SOUL not to install MPEG codecs.

In theory, SOUL should not be able to read your MPEG file at all.  But when QuickTime is installed SOUL has a rule that allows him to ask QuickTime if it can decode certain types of files if SOUL cannot decode natively.  In this case, Yes, QuickTime can play this MPEG file.  So this is actually QuickTime that is decoding the soul file and then SOUL takes frames and encodes them to the output format.  If you do not have QuickTime installed, just SOUL would produce an error when you tried to open the file.  (I confirmed this by uninstalling QuickTime; this is also why your previous installation of QuickTime bad generated the error on what you posted).

Here, the problem seems to be that QuickTime and SOUL are not talking together very well.  SOUL is not asking the frames correctly, or QuickTime is not properly called managers.

The best solution for you is to use another program to transcode your MPEG files to a different format.  Either directly to F4V or in an intermediate format (QuickTime, AVI, other) which you can then import into SOUL so it can properly transcode it.

Or you can take the suggestion of Jim and shoot with a camera that produces files that are more respectful of the edition.  MPEG files are notoriously difficult to effectively decode for editing, and the variety of implementations of the MPEG guidelines makes it nearly impossible for the edition of programs compatible with every single device that can write MPEG files.

I have good news: this problem has already been solved for a future version of the SOUL; my test version internal do not reproduce the problem.

    Problem 1: What kind of file (s) you are trying to import when you get the error?

    Problem 2: Disk previous scartch was setting pointing to a drive that is not available on your current system? If so, open the project, and then manually replace the drive working whiver drive/directory you want... Or just accept the default.

    Problem 3: Happy that worked... isn't that deny the problem 4?

    Problem 4: Timeline and rendering export are two different things. They are not directly related, so an export will not make the timelien for you. You did the right thing to remove your existing preview files. It is always a good thing to do after the upgrade of old projects to current versions. In addition, it allows to save a lot of storage space if you do this whenever you're "done" with a project.

    Yes, the allstat command toured all the values of the dimension of name currently in status and limited each object to 'all '. If you ensure that the dimension of name has all the values of the status before running a "allstat", then you can be sure that the status of all objects is 'all' to 100%

  • Loading error when you try to load the Halo 2 "files are missing or damaged in the installation directory. A few important files required to run this game are missing from the installation directory.

    Original title: load error when you try to load Halo 2

    People at Microsoft, I have a problem trying to load Halo 2 on my dv7 Paviliaon with Vista and the 2.8 GB Intel Centrino 2 processor. When I try and load the game, I get and error stating: "the files are missing or damaged in the installation directory. A few important files required to run this game are missing from the installation directory. "It bothered me for several reasons. One: the disc that I use is an original disc out of the box so hsould have no problem. Two: the game has been loaded previously on the same computer without apparent problem at the time. It has been deleted (don't remember why) and when I tried to reinstall, the error came. Three: I did as recommended and updated all programs and drivers, nothing works. So my question is, how do I reinstall Halo 2 and what this problem will arise if I decide to buy and load Halo 3?

    Thank you for your time in advance.

  • I'm reading a file mpeg and Windows Media Player C00D1199 error. How to get good download of the missing codec?

    I'm reading a file mpeg and Windows Media Player C00D1199 error.  How to get good download of the missing codec?  I have windows 7 x 64 os.

    All is not lost.

    Download and install a pack of codecs, such as K-Lite (Google for it). You can find THAT WMP can then read the file.

    Or
    Download and install a small program called Gspot (Google it)! Drag and drop in its window one of the files, you can't plzy. It will tell you which codecs are used. You can then download and install the only after doing a search on the web for it.
    See you soon,.

  • Problem importing file (CS6 Codec missing or inaccessible QT of MPEG-4 on PC)

    I read through several of the other threads associated with this problem and still do not have yet to fully understand what it is I do.

    As mentioned in the 'question', I work in Adobe Premiere CS6 (pc) and try to import an MPEG-4 QT. The file has been edited and exported Final Cut on a Mac some time ago.

    I downloaded MediaInfo to determine the codec, and, as I understand it the program...

    Codec ID: Quick time (qt)

    Video codec: hdv2

    Audio codec: sowt

    Given this information, how can I get the correct codec for adobe first or convert my file? Or is there another solution that I don't know how to proceed?

    I have an old version of first elements (1.0), but it worked fine in the edition together video clips and pictures to make movies.

    Some time ago I had a few VHS transferred in a digital file, and what they gave me is a big file MPEG (2 GB).

    is lost. File MPEG play fine on my computer...

    I tried all the options within the program, but without success.

    Normally when I make films I use AVI files to the format, so maybe there is a problem with the MPEG format?

    Any suggestions?

    An MPEG can be converted to AVI?

    Yes, sometimes a few flavors of MPEG can give you funny results (i.e. no audio or audio synchronized).

    MPEG Streamclip and "Prism" are free utilities that can convert your MPEG in a DV - AVI. The frequently asked questions to the right of this forum tell you how to use them.
