Choppy Quicktime
Posted: Wed Jul 01, 2009 11:05 am
I am having trouble viewing Quicktime or .mov videos. This is very frustrating, could someone please help me?
The problem I'm having is that the Quicktime videos I upload from my camera don't play well. The video and sound is very choppy. When I download a movie trailer or an Apple ad in Quicktime I can play it without any trouble. Just having trouble with my camera Quicktime videos.
The problem is the same weather I use Movie Player, Gnome Mplayer or VLC.
. The camera videos play well in XP (I'm dual booting with Gloria). They also play well when I load them onto my Acer Aspire One Netbook running CrunchBang Linux. So there isn't anything wrong with the Quicktime files. They are just choppy in Gloria. The only way I can get them to run well in Linux Mint is to convert the .mov files to .avi, which isn't a real fix. I'm running a dual core Athalon processor with 2 gig memory and an Nvidia graphics card with 512 meg memory on it. Hardware shouldn't be an issue. I've done searches in this forum and Ubuntu's and can't seem to find an answer to my problem. I would like to eliminate XP from my computer but not if I can't fix the choppy Quicktime videos.
I use my camera a lot and it's important to be to be able to play the videos. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
