  • No sound/audio in MP4 files

    Hi hoping someone here can help out - I use El Capitan 10.11.6 and the audio is missing some MP4 files that I downloaded from a GoPro camera. My sound is fine otherwise, output noise is fine, alert sounds are fine. MOV files off other cameras play well with audio easily here, but I don't hear anything in the files MP4 Quicktime, VLC, Final Cut Pro X, even if in Final Cut Pro X there is an audio waveform on each clip and they were converted to Quicktime using the MPEG stream clip (there no audible sound in the program either). I tried the same files on colleagues Mac running Mavericks and the sound is fine out there so here something to replace or reinstall?

    You run the same exact file on El Capitan and the Mavericks?  Shouldn't be any change unless MPEGstreamclip has been defined to use some esoteric audio codec in the file.  First of all, there is no reason to convert the files off your GoPro.  FCPX will work with native files very well.

    And, if you never convert, use the GoPro Studio app for this.  Nothing I do will have problems with the standard files.

    We use GoPros all the time and didn't have any problems.  What are the settings on the GoPro cameras?

  • iPod Touch cannot play some mp4 files

    I have some video captures for the House that my iTunes will transfer to my iPod Touch saying they cannot be played on this.  The videos play in iTunes, and I see nothing unusual in the file type.

    An MP4 Player is simply a wrapper for video files. There are many variations in the video files that can be encapsulated in a mp4 file. iTunes can play more variations than the iPod.

    I recommend using the hand brake computer free app to convert the file

    https://handbrake.fr/

    This app has preset for outings specifically compatible with the iPod

  • Local MP4 files always open with Firefox's built-in video player

    I believe before Firefox 35, I was able to open the local links to mp4 files and Firefox would ask me what to do (open, save, etc.). Local links to files mp4 always open in the embedded video player on Firefox with no option to do otherwise. I tried setting "media.windows - media - foundation.enabled' to 'false' and it has no effect on the local links to files mp4." All the other common video formats, I've tested (avi, mpg, wmv) ask me what for, as this is the expected behavior.

    To reproduce:

    1.) enter URL: file:///path/to/video.mp4
    2.) observes that the file opens in the video player built-in with no option to do otherwise

    Hello, please put media.windows - media - foundation.enabled to his default preference and try to activate media.play - stand alone false instead.

  • can firefox play a mp4 file?

    I have a html 5 lines of code on my server uses the tag video. the movie I mention, in the code, is a xxxxxx.mp4 file
    I can play this mp4, online or offline, in IE, Safari, Chrome and Opera, but NOT in firefox (I have v12). It gives err: "no video with a format supported MIME type found" or similar. I need to convert my mp4 to another type of file, or is there something I can 'do with' my FF to 12! I use XP, on a desktop computer.

    In general, no, the current versions of Firefox do not natively support mp4 files. Users currently require a plug-in of some sort to play mp4 files in the browser. This is likely to change at some point in the near future; There was a long discussion on this topic and the general decision was to implement support this format.

  • the .mp4 files are not read correctly on 40TL968

    Hello

    A couple of weeks, I bought this TV and I could play via USB or DLNA .mp4 files. But for these past few days, whenever I try to play .mp4 files, they do not play correctly. They get stuck between the two - I mean the video stops and plays automatically. This happens every time, no matter I'm playing with USB and DLNA.

    But if I play .avi, they play effortlessly and flawlessly.

    No idea why this problem with playback of the .mp4 files?

    Thank you
    D

    > I have reset the TV, but still it did not work. He has yet to play mp4 files

    Have you done this correctly?
    I mean that you need to rest at default settings. In this case all the options that have been changed, could be the default value.
    To do this, go to:
    Configuration of the system-> Reset TV
    When authorities set turn it back on, the Quick Setup is displayed. Press OK to move the Setup program and perform an auto tune.

    In addition the user guide provides a list of supported formats (page 93) Media Player
    There is a list of the formats supported for music and movie files:

    _Music_ mp4 files are supported.
    The extension of files should be .m4a
    Audio codec should be MPEG-2/4 LC - AAC

  • How to delete MP4 files

    Camera model: HDR-CX670

    I need to make room in memory. It seems that the only way to remove the videos from the camera is using the device itself and not using a program on PC as PlayMemories.

    The problem is that my camera contains a folder named MP_ROOT with about 18 GB of MP4 files (I don't know where they come from; it looks like they are created whenever I have something, in addition to the movie AVCHD files). This folder is not displayed on the device, and I am therefore unable to remove it.

    I could use my PC to delete the folder or the files it contains, but I do not know if I break something by doing this. Because I like to keep a few videos on the camera, memory formatting isn't an option.

    How can I safely get rid of these files?

    Hi Berndbausch,

    You can safely remove the MP4 files in the MP_ROOT folder.

    Your camcorder is set to dual record mode that is why it creates MP4 files while he was recording AVCHD movies.

    To turn off video Dual Rec mode, you can go to:

    [Menu]-> [Image quality / Size]-> [Dual REC video]-> [DISABLED].

  • Toshiba Gigashot GSC - K40HE HD - playback of MP4 files

    Need help please.

    I have a Toshiba Gigashot GSC-K40HE HD camera and have bought an Iomega screenplay Plus HD Media Player, essentially a hard disk of 1 TB with the ability to play MP4 files that the GSC-K40HE produced through the HDMI cable to my TV. (http://www.iomega.com/support/manuals/hdd2009/scrnplyplus/en/main.html)

    The files have been tranfered successfully at the scenario of Media Player, checked through my cell phone, MP4 files will open correctly.

    However when connecting the screenplay Plus HD Media Player to the TV with the HDMI cable, when you select MP4 files a message appears as "Unknown file" and not only will not open.

    My questions are:

    1. Why will not play MP4 files?
    2 is there a different format they need to be saved in for them to play, if so what those
    3 looking at files in camera HD of GSC-K40HE there is a simultaneous "THM" generated with the MP4 file when a video was taken, what is this and that affect playback via the screenplay multimedia drive?
    4 someone know of a storage device similar to the scenario Media Plus I can just copy and store my videos, plug-and-play through my TV without the above events.

    Look forward to your responses.

    Thank you

    Hey Buddy,

    If you can open the files saved on your laptop videos are ok and it s no video corrupted don't file, so in my opinion, the problem must be the external HARD disk where you store the videos.

    Have you tried different videos not the camera? You should test it with other mp4 files and other types of files to ensure that the external HARD drive is working properly.

    If it of necessary would directly contact Iomega. There may be an update of firmware for this media player or some settings you need to check these videos work.
    I would also try another cable.

  • PC Win7 will not add the mp4 files to the iTunes library

    iTunes will not add .mp4 movies at the library on PC Win7 (v.12.3.1.23).  Movie exact same .mp4 files are able to add in my iMac running iTunes 12, someone else has experienced this problem?

    In some cases with 64-bit systems, you may need to install the version of iTunes for Windows (64-bit-for older video cards) and QuickTime to enable iTunes work with videos. 32-bit users must install QuickTime.

  • extract audio from mp4 files

    Hello

    Is it possible to split the audio to a mp4 file in Labview? We have used the QT X active component to work with the video images but sees no way to work with the audio portion. We are looking to find the timestamp of a specific image in a mp4 file who is savvy to the audio segment of the mp4 file. Any suggestion would be appreciated. Thank you

    Hey blewis333,

    I don't think that there is an easy way to do it.  My best recommendation would be to find another piece of software that you can call via ActiveX.  I think that VideoCapX (http://www.fathsoft.com/videocapx.html) would be a good thing to look at.  If you can call this program through ActiveX, extract the audio in MP3 format, and then convert it to one. WAV file, I think you might be able to do what you're trying.

    Other than that, I think that your best option is to ask if anyone else has been able to do and if they can share their solution.

    Good luck with your application!

    Best,

    Hi, Zjpz,

    What version of Internet Explorer you are using-

    Change in size/content of the file during the transfer is the typical result of the use of text transfer mode. With mode, the sequence of characters to delimit lines in the text file is changed. Under Windows, the sequence has two bytes, then to a single byte on Unix. Where the change in file size.

    http://WinSCP.NET/Eng/docs/faq_transfer_size_change

    Why changes in the size of file after the download of video/Audio

    I would like to develop the explanation using a type of FLV video file for example. For the above example image, the size of the original file was 9,88 MB and the video format is FLV - which is a Flash video. This type of video is super compressed to save bandwidth and streams of the fastest video on a computer. During the process of re-encoding, it is off compression first before it is re-encoded. Output size is dependent on the type of media file that you download, you will notice little change downloading format that uses less compression method.

  • Why my computer closes when I click on 235.mp4 or mp4 files?

    I downloaded an MP4 Player and a 235.mp4 to my download generic folder.  I now want to transfer both to another file.  However, when I right click on one of them, I get the message below, and then my computer shuts down after that I have send an error report:

    "Windows Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. »

    I also downloaded a wmv and wmv 235.le from the same record and was able to move. These files are sent to me by someone I know who is the creator of files, which only sent them to me.  All files have been scanned by my Kaspersky Security for the virus until they have been downloaded.
    I'm also not possible to rename or delete two mp4 files. And I worked with mov.mp4 files in the past without problem.
    I use Windows XP.
    Thank you.

    Tess, I have another idea of what may be the cause.

    Open a command prompt by clicking Start, run, type cmd and press ENTER.
    At the blinking cursor, type regsvr32/u shmedia.dll. And then press ENTER. "
    You should get a dllunregisterserver in shmedia.dll succeeded.
    Restart the computer and check if the problem is still there.

    I have additional steps after you answer.

    When replying, please include the version of WMP that you use. You can find this by starting the player and clicking on help on the menu. In WMP 11 you must click on the ALT key to display the menu unless you put it is always displayed.
