error when playing

Out of 1200 or so videos about 400 won't play get the dreaded error messages.Tried with other machines and different browsers, windows 7 , fire fox, enternet explorer, safari. Some of the mov's play fine. Mostly the ones that won't are mov's. The error have a few different numbers. I tried changing everything about the files themselves, format, name encoding. Also tried many things that I found on this forum, tried everything that was also talked about for suviio console and more than a few setting, of course one at a time. Tried to find something common about the ones that don't play. I converted them sometime ago in quicktime pro /save as self contain file/. Most I believe became mov's. I believe a very small amount from that batch that was converted do play, but that has something to do in what they were in the first place. The only thing that I can find common is quicktime movie , Codecs: XVID,MPEG layer 3, all that don't work have this.
Log file... If this is not the right log file than could you give direct path to the CORRECT ONE or ONES, there are more than a few.
Been reading them and tired now. apple version 10.6.8 Thank, nic. P.S. I have added some of the one that don't play to the playlist/ right side.
I did convert a few now with toast to see what happens and they did play afterwards. But this would be a job in itself, to do all. Hoping to find an easer fix......

Re: error when playing

yes wait. Here it is. XVID, MPEG Layer 3.... There are some different ones to that are not playing. I did some more looking at a bunch after posting this mornig. I do know for sure that these are ones I converted, quicktime pro save as self contained file. Some from that batch do play. I also have tried many servers and players in the past and really have never run into this on such a vast scale????????LOL... P.S I have to go, But I will find some more different ones later and post them.

Re: error when playing

I have posted the code from the file itself and from the error when playing. I don't know what you are asking for instead. You will have to be really specific in what.

Re: error when playing

How can I be more specific? Did you look at the link in my signature? viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1123

Then execute ffmpeg as given above and post the results here.

Re: error when playing

Ya no, you have been just stringing along with questions that meant NOTHING. Your answer was useless when you knew I had the latest version. Figures you state your junk plays mov's and m4v's witch it does NOT. You take money and act like you give support, you don't. Your just another arrogant prick and a common thief. Just a punk in my neighborhood. Like your someone ZIP shit. I'll be in your neighborhood soon, so we can talk about it then.

Re: error when playing

yeah zip, why didn't you drop everything and devote all of your attention to solving this guys problem <sarcasm>. Clearly he is someone of that we should all take notice of... not!

domclark - it's one thing to be frustrated, another to be rude. I don't think anyone will be lining up to help you in the future. Good luck and goodbye!

You didn't do what I asked you to, yet demand answers. Either calm down or send email to sales[at]serviio[dot]org and I will happily refund your money - not really interested in a customer like you. bye
