Iam struggling to get a compatible format of my vedio image on a Cd to be played on a DVD player and TV. The image format is XVID, which cannot be played on a Digital player. Can someone help.

blinkx AdHoc rewards you for sharing videos. Next time you embed a video from a video-sharing site, simply run the embed code through blinkx AdHoc first to start making money. When you add the embedded video, it will have contextually relevant ads placed near or on it. If your viewers click on these ads, the advertiser pays blinkx, and blinkx will share 50% of that revenue with you. How does it work? http://adhoc.blinkx.com/

Hi Phillip.

blinkx adhoc sounds wonderful. Thanks for sharing that info. Many video sharing sites have similar programs.

And yes dear, I HAVE been doing videos a very long time. Since before most of you were born!

Thanks for visiting!

Hi Manolito.

Interlaced and progressive refer to the technical way in which the video picture is brought to the screen. The frames are interlaced together to form what appears to be one image. In all my years of producing video, this is not something I have ever really had to be concerned with except for having to de-interlace still frames in order to stop them from being jittery.

The video file format shouldn’t be affected by interlacing or progressive. It is a different issue.

The file format a video is in will determine what kind of software you need in order to play it.

Hope that helps.

Thanks,
Lorraine Grula

I am a member of a website that publishes all it’s videos in mp4 format, which I don’t seem to be able to watch on my PC either through Windows Media Player or Realplayer. Is there something I am doing wrong? Can I convert these videos into .wmv or .mpeg files which I *can* watch?

Hi

I am just as confused as you are as to why you can not watch mpeg4 videos on your pc.

I have both real player and windows media player on my pc and both programs will play an mpeg4.

Now, windows media player says mpeg4 is not a recognized format, but then a dialogue box comes up and says, “do you want to try it anyway?” When I click yes, WMP opens up and plays the file.

I am sorry I do not have a better answer for you.

In my experience, video and computers sometimes do inexplicable things. Things that should work sometimes don’t. This could be due to a file, or even a program, being corrupted.

You might indeed wish to try converting the file. Try converting it to .wmv (windows media video) Just a few months ago, I downloaded some quicktime files that simply would not play on my Mac in my edit program (final cut), although quicktime is recognized by final cut. The files would play in quicktime player. So, to fix the problem, I opened them in QT and converted them to a dv stream. Then they slid into final cut just fine. I first tried converting them from quicktime to quicktime and that didn’t work. (I know that sounds a bit odd, but I thought if the files were corrupt somehow that converting them into a NEW QT file would mend the corruption.)

Anyway…sorry you are having difficulties. I’d like to be able to say that video and computers always play together nicely, but alas, sometimes they just don’t!

I hope this helps.
