  • playing old media 100 files without media 100

    Posted by Shortly on January 8, 2007 at 1:21 pm

    hi,

    i have an old .qt file that i’m sure was output using media 100 4.5
    i’ve downloaded the media 100 8 transcoder hoping to play it back in quicktime but it has been unsuccessful – the file opens in quicktime but only shows a blank (white) screen and doesn’t give me any errors.

    i’m also using an intel machine (mac book pro) – not sure if that’s making a difference.

    thanks in advance!

    You should download the Media 100 codecs from their support website. The Transcoder is quite old and has been replaced by the codecs. Additionally the Codecs are not Intel-native right now. So you need to open your QuickTime player using Rosetta if you want to see the file. Do a “Get Info” on the QuickTime Player application and select the “start using rosetta” checkbox.
