  • QuickTime Error (-2048)

    Posted by Matt Sturns on January 15, 2006 at 10:07 pm

    Hello All.

    I’ve been having major Quicktime Problems. I keep getting an error of -2048 when I try to play back movies. Here’s the situation:

    I exported from FCP using Quicktime Conversion – High Quality Broadband Preset (which uses the H.264 codec).

    The movies that come out are fine and playable. When I FTP them to a site and then go to download them I keep gettting:

    QuickTime cannot open the file: “1.mov”
    it is not a file that QuickTime understands (-2048)

    I have the latest version of Quicktime 7.0.4 Pro. Other clients have the same problem.

    On another but similar note:

    I output Uncompressed 8Bit Quicktime movie for a client and they have the most recent QT player and are getting a similar message that says that it is an invalid file format. It has the .mov extension.

    PLease Help!! Thanks!
