not sure if using apple or PC - cant play QT files

[HotBlack69]

I end up with audio and a white screen. No video.

I'm having a similar problem. I have the latest QT 7.1.5 and when I convert I get the white screen and audio. Anyone know what is causing this?

turn off in MC qt plug in and use directshow instead -- it is in the settings options for filters ...

Sorry, should have mentioned im not using MC. Im trying to get these .mov's into premiere pro, when I do they just come up with white video. I tried converting them with a mov to avi converter but same problem

most likely you will have to convert them from QT to a different avi format like DV or huffyuv or the like (a truly editable format that is)

Well I tried it and it still doesnt work. No idea what to do. I shot this stuff on a P2 cam at 720p then rip it off the cam into Final Cut Pro as quicktime. I have done this before but not at this resolution, usually all you have to do is add the .mov extension to the file and it imports fine.

you should (have) start(ed) a new thread - because not only is your problem with different software/encoder - but it turns out you just happen to mention a completely different OS

i'll split your question to another thread in the mac forum

[HotBlack69]

No I am sure,... Im using both

I captured the files on P2, exported to Mac (as PC premiere pro does not support P2) then copied exported files to DVD, tried to open on PC...they appear white, with audio

[BJ_M]

did you flatten them on the mac ?

Read this posting over at Creative Cow.
It points to using the CineForm codec
as a means to get P2 video into Premiere Pro.
