The files were made with Adobe Encoder CS6 on a PC. The display machine is a GA-X58-UD5 board, i7 920, 6GB RAM, Radeon HD6970, Win7HP32, 10K HDD© + SSD(D).
You are right, the files do not play in QT. Sorry for that, it was just that I encoded about 30 different varieties of h264 and did not test all of them in QT as well.
I just put some other files up on the server:
www.cds.de/testWO2.zip
The h264-files in that folder are made with Adobe After Effects CS6, they play in Quicktime but have the same problem in Watchout: the 1400x1050/25fps and 2330x1050/25fps play ok, but the 2330x1050/50fps does not.
I have a workaround now, I am using pre-split movies (1400x1050/50fps) in h264 (I know this is not recomended, but I just need the sharpness that goes with the h264, mpg2 is too soft, at least the results that I get out of adobe encoder and telestream episode). But still it is good to know if I am tripping the possibilities of the hardware or if it is a configuration-dependent.
Thank you very much for testing and commenting!
