Troubleshooting
"Latent Images" or "Flashing" During Playback
1.Incorrect timecodes or improperly closed encoding session. If the incorrect timecode is given for a particular file it is possible to actually encode a frame or two of the trailer or header information from the source. Often this "extra" frame is seen only briefly and may appear as a "flash" on the screen. Review the original source of the encoding and determine if the timecodes are correct or if the encoding session was actually closed on the proper frame.
2.Playing MPEG 1 and MPEG2 files back to back: The resolution switch from MPEG 1 files (342X240) to MPEG2 files (720X480) causes a "latent image" or a "quadrant display" of the last played file's image. The only way to perform seamless playback when using a playlist of files is to insert an encoded "black file" with blank audio track, between MPEG 1 and MPEG 2 files. The black MPEG file preceding the playback file should be of the same standard. In other words, prior to an MPEG 1 file the "black
Stuttering Files During Playback
Irregular playback can be caused by a number of conditions:
1.Mixed video only MPEG files with MPEG with video and audio data: Confirm that all files are either video only, audio only, or audio/video files. It is recommended to have a "blank" audio track encoded with all MPEG
2.Dolby Digital files: Dolby Digital files can not be mixed with any other type of file. Ensure that all of the file types are the same.
