Hd Video Won't Play Correctly

[ronlosangeles]

First of all...... when I go to the forum and see topics...... I don't see a "search" choice anywhere. I don't see how I can search for a topic to see if it's already been covered. Help?

 

Using Video Wave 2012. PC. Windows 7. 6g ram. 2T hard drive. No issues with any softwares.

Have done a ton of video editing for years.

 

When I import a video clip (from a camera) into Video Wave for editing.... playback is jumpy... the audio jumps all over the place but not in sync with video on screen.

 

This is an HD clip...... only about 5 minutes long. File size is 1.9 gig. 1920x1088 pixels. Format is ".mov"

 

I've looked at Production settings... can't find anything relating to resolution.... wondering about that.

 

Anyone out there have a clue why it won't play back properly so I can edit it?

 

By the way....... it also won't play correctly in Windows Media Player....... but it plays BETTER in VLC player...... not CORRECTLY but BETTER. I don't get it.

 

The video clips has been played succesfully on a friend's Mac computer with IDVD (I think that's what the software is called)

thanks in advance

What is in your corner of your browser???

 

 

 

'camera'? 'MOV'?

 

You must be talking about a digital camera as opposed to a camcorder

 

The take shortcuts to try to make themselves a camcorder... As a result you will need to run the files through a 3^rd party converter before trying to use them

 

Here are a couple we use:

 

 

AVS4YOU Converter:

AVS

 

Any Video Converter

HERE

 

Give one of them a try and see what happens

Thank you so much.

I tried AVS.... and it worked!

Also tried the converter in my Roxio converter.....but it didn't work. New format was still bad.

Much appreciated

Explain the above please. What exactly did you do?

[ronlosangeles]

Opened Roxio Video Copy & Convert

Selected MOVIES

Added video file from hard drive as source

 

On right side of screen selected CONVERT VIDEO

as output Selected WMV HD 1080

Started conversion

 

Result was that new format of video "skipped " "jumped" audio not in sync with video....

thanks

By the way....... I can't afford to buy AVS right now....... so "successful" conversion I did with that software is not usable because of that code (forget what they call it) that they put in the middle of the screen on newly converted video

Try the free "Freemake" converter (http://www.freemake.com/), there are no hassles about purchasing or water marks.
