bug? error 784

Post by willwade »

Trying to play a avi file I get "Operation could not be completed. (OSStatus error 784.)" and nothing in quicktime.

Is this a perian problem or is it a me problem?(!)

Thanks

Can you post the avi? Sounds like an audio import problem, they usually give error codes that don't actually exist for some reason.

Then cut a small one together and post it. Simply restating the issue is of no help whatsoever.

Sorry about that - the main problem is consent was required.. I also no longer have access to the windows machine with adobe premiere..

Anyway I have managed to find a fairly small vid. take a look http://dl-client.getdropbox.com/u/66960 ... antx03.avi

This is the same as http://forums.cocoaforge.com/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=19055 and thus, fixed for next release.

Just for the record I managed to fix this by removing DivX - should have read the first line on the support page in the first place.. d'oh!

Thanks for your help
