Kier - you are 100% wrong. I am typing this on a brand new OS X 10.4.11 install I just completed 15 minutes ago. Fully patched. All updates.

G4/467, 896mb RAM. QUicktime 7.3 - plays audio but no video. Been trying all of the trailers on Apple’s website, same issue.

Will have to investigate further.

Hello there,

The same problem. Got Apple-encoded Quicktime-Files on my Windows-PC.
Quicktime-Player recognizes the video format as “HDV 1080i50”. I can hear sound, but no picture.

If anyone out there knows, how to solve this problem, please answer!

HDV is a new high definition video format. It is native to Final Cut Pro (5.1) FCP seems to be the only way to view video/audio and transcode it into something else.
Cheers
Stephen

Here’s what the folks at Apple have to say on the matter.

“The most common reason this happens is because your computer is missing the necessary video decompressor (the “dec” part of a codec). A movie file that uses a codec that is not part of QuickTime, for example, would cause this symptom. In many cases QuickTime won’t be able to decompress the video, but can decompress the sound because the right sound codec is installed.

The solution is to find out which codec the movie file uses, then install it on your Mac (if a Mac OS version of the codec exists). If you can’t find a codec to install, a third-party player application may include a codec that only it can use. Try a third-party player to see if it can play the movie."

For those who are getting audio, but no video when playing QT files, try this...

In QT, go to the EDIT menu PREFERENCES> PLAYER PREFERENCES. Uncheck “Use high quality video setting when available”.

This fixed my problem.
