Request for the dayside - can you take 30 secs to help me look at something?
 
Having a problem that I don't understand, with clips encoded by my video guy.
Can anyone who has a media player that shows total time of a clip --- just take a look at the two clips here, and let me know:

1. what's the running time you get for the clips?
2. what media player (if WMP, what version) are you using?

Thanks for your help :)

1. About 2-3 minutes. (It doesn't show me the total time...I started to count, and then I just estimated!)

2. Quicktime

:thumbsup

I'm not happy to hear that - but it confirms that there's a problem somewhere that most people haven't seen - thanks :thumbsup

thanks....it's definitely a codec/WMP issue, I guess --- no idea WHAT the issue is exactly, but that helps.

MikeSmoke 11-27-2008 03:23 PM

thanks everyone :)
if anyone has any ideas what could be causing this, I'd be thrilled lol

WMP 11 by default does not display the time at all when "classic
menus" are used. If you turn the classic menus off, the time display
is at the TOP of the window.

thanks, but it's not an issue of the time displaying - it's an issue of the clip being truncated in some versions of WMP but not others...apparently a codec issue, I'd guess.

alias 11-27-2008 04:21 PM

yeah, it has to be a codec issue

the first thing I though of was ensuring your video dude uses a proven method [codec, encoding program] that you can see has worked before for you or his other projects

He does (pinnacle, vegas and imTOO), but he keeps changing settings to try to improve performance...and god only knows what he's done :(

downloaded for WMP, 1.37 for the first vid

MikeSmoke 11-27-2008 05:43 PM

Thanks, this is really strange, it works for some people with WMP, not others, and it's not version-specific :(
