Video files being cut short

Recommended Posts

Recently I've been having a problem where a file that's supposed to be say between 45 - 60 minutes long is being ended in 3 minutes by all my video players. If I direct the footage to a certain point then it plays from the proper point but the playback (not actual viewing) is accelerated at a huge rate. What could I have done to create this situation and how do I rectify it? Any help would be appreciated.

That sounds really fucked up. I've had that problem, if I open a file in WinDVD, butit can usually be cured by switching to another media player.

Have you ever successfully played these files before? If you haven't, my guess is there is some bad data at some spot in the file and the video players are thinking it is the end of the file. It's happened to me before with some files I've downloaded. I just delete the file, clear my cache and re download it and sometimes it's good then.

I'm having a problem too.

 

The Kurt Angle desire video (Coldplay) is a quicktime video. I could always play it in KLite, but recently, I get audio, but the video stops before the counter even gets to 0:01. My other quicktime videos are doing the same thing.

BUMP THAT SHIT!

 

So I got a new computer and it worked fine for a while and now my video files are doing the same thing. A file that should be 20 minutes to an hour is being played in like 3 minutes. It's not like it's in Fast Forward or anything, it just plays 3 minutes of footage and then stops (scroll bar moves as if the file should only be three minutes). Someone must know how to fix this. PLEASE HELP! SO MUCH STUFF TO WATCH!

What codecs do you have installed? What are all the players you have installed? And finally what file type(avi, mpeg, mpg, wmav)?I need just a bit more information and then I might be able to help.
