    Codec problems

    Posted by Marcus Bird on July 5, 2008 at 1:05 am

    Hi,

    My FCP file works fine on one machine,but when I run it from another I get an error trying to playback a Quicktime mov file, it keeps saying Codec not found. I have no idea which codec its looking for so I cant download it – does anyone know how I can fix this?

    Thanks,

    Marcus

    Do you have the same version of FCP on each machine?

    There are no “technical solutions” to your “artistic problems”.
    Don’t let technology get in the way of your creativity!

    What codec is the original file? Just double click it on the original machine into Quicktime and it will tell you.

    Or better yet, look at it in FCP.
