Home videos transfer to ipod with no sound

so i have a video camcorder and i made some home videos and they wouldn't copy to my ipod. so i went to my toolbar and it said convert selection for ipod or something along the lines of that and so i clicked that and a new window popped up under my devices section of my itunes tabs where the cds show up when i'm importing and it took about 2 minutes to convert. so i resynced my ipod and the video went on and so i went to watch it because i always double check these things to be sure and there's no sound to accompany the video. i guess it's not that big of a deal but it would be nice if i could find out what the problem is

QuickTime expects video files with separate video and audio tracks, but many MPEG formats used a muxed (multiplexed) single track that contains both. Therefore, iTunes & the iPod (both of which use QuickTime) only show the video and no sound.
iPod plays video but not audio of some exported files

One way to work around this is to use MPEG Streamclip to convert the files to fix this issue...

Can I play home video on my ipod touch?

Can I play home video on my ipod touch?

So, the only way to watch home video in ipod touch is via itunes? Because in fact i'm trying to use my ipod touch as a video monitor for my DSLR camera while i use it for filming. I thought i could use the hdmi adapter for ipod touch, but everyone tells me that it might not be possible, so i wont buy it without knowing if it is possible or not. I wonder if it is phisicaly possible, so all we would need for that is someone to develop a softare to use the hdmi adapter to watch a video into an ipod. I say this because my camera has a hdmi video out, but it could be with simple RCA cables too. Someone think it is possible?

Videos in my ipod doesnt have sounds...

As the person before me said, you will need a third party converter for your video. I had the same problem when I got my ipod with the audio not playing or only audio etc.
I would recommend the Super converter from www.erightsoft.com
when converting to ipod format remember to have it set to video coded as mpeg4, otherwise it dosen't work.
Hope this helps
Amy

Videos on my iPod are without sound...

Please help me...i downoad videos to my iPod video,
but there's no sound...clip is playing but no sound...

Quicktime, Quicktime Pro and iTunes don't convert "muxed" ( muxed means multiplexed where the audio and video are stored on the same track) video files properly. It only plays the video and not the audio.
See:iPod plays video but not audio.
You need a 3rd party converter to convert the file with both audio and video.
See this for help: Guide to converting video for iPod (Mac/Windows).

Why can I not put home videos on my ipod?

The videos are in mp4 format and I can select them in the movies section but when i go to videos on my ipod there not there.

See:
iTunes: May be unable to transfer videos to iPhone, iPad, or iPod
iTunes: Frequently asked questions about viewing and syncing videos
You may have to convert them to a format compatible with the iPod. There are many variations of the MP4 format and all are not compatible with the iPod.
You man need a third-party program like the free HandBreak to convert them

Choppy home video on iPad & iPod Video, but not iPod Touch

I'm trying to create a simple 3-minute home video with Sony Vegas Movie Studio HD 9.0 on my HP Pavilion desktop PC running Vista. I render the edited video as an MP4 file. If I double-click the file, it opens in QuickTime player and plays just fine. If I add it to iTunes, it plays in the iTunes player just fine. If I synch it to my 32Gig iPod touch - just fine.
But on my 2nd Gen 80Gig iPod Video, the video is VERY choppy - one frame every half second or so. On the iPad it's better - but there are a bunch of square artifacts in the frame whenever there's movement in the frame, like swinging your arm from side to side. Is there some way I can... OPTIMIZE this video for the iPad? It'd be a really impressive way of showing off the video. I could burn the video to a DVD and show it on a TV, but the iPad is obviously more portable.
Any advice? Any questions about how I'm rendering the video?

Video player in iPod 60Gig. Sound stops after a while playing large clips

I have been converting DVDs and large video clips into iPod MPEG 4 format for the iPod with the Xilisoft DVD to iPod Converter 4. This softwrae works just great and the files plays well on my PC with Quick Time player as well as others. When loaded to the iPod they all start OK but the sound disapears after a while. If I fast-forward or backward then it works for a while again.
I do not see this behaviour with short clips (3-5 minutes)
As far as I can see this is related to the MPEG4 player in the iPod. Anyone have a similar problem or some resolution to it.

Nope,
But I just discovered that that it is actually not only the sound that stops working but rather the whole video that has a "hick-up" and then when it continues the sound is gone. If I fastforward/rewind then it seem like the player rocovers and play the stream correctly again.
What are the Mp4 clip prefs you have used when converting?
I am planning to try some other settings when converting to see if that makes any difference but I doubt it will help. I think we will have to wait for a "better" i.e. working Video Player for the iPod ...

Time diminished on video transfer to IPod

I transfered a number of music video files to my Ipod. Lately when I succesfully transfer a 3 or 4 minute video to my Ipod the time has been reduced to 2 seconds. I can't figure out why?

Will the video you purchased play in iTunes? If you haven't tried it, try playing it in iTunes first and then see if it will transfer.

Ipod Video Vs. Apple iPod with color display Dock

Can someone help me with this question, can the Apple iPod with color display Dock works for the fifth generation ipod???? or just works with the universal Dock???

Can someone help me with this question, can the Apple iPod with color display Dock works for the fifth generation ipod????
According to the local Apple Store here, the Color iPod dock (M9868G/A) will work with the 5G iPod but is a "loose fit" as far as the seating in the well goes.

Repeated Authorization of DRM Video displays gray screen with no sound

I recently loaded the digital copy of Watchmen included with the Blu-Ray package. Every time I attempted to play it, iTunes authorization would be required and a message would indicate the system was already authorized. The movie would "play" with a gray screen and no sound, however the preview screen would show a still of the current scene. The movie could be loaded on my iPhone and plays normally. All my previous DRM purchases now display the same gray screen with no sound.
The problem was caused by /Library/Quicktime/QuickTimeComponents.component
In my case, this was an obsolete 7.2 version
I removed the file, rebooted, and the problem was solved.
Restoring the file, will make the problem return.
The problem could be reproduced on both a G5 and Intel Mac.
There are many posts about similar gray screen (or grey screen) issues, but there seems to be many different causes. A similar issue exists with a 3ivx component which is also stored in /Library/Quicktime/ -- so I systematically removed components until the problem was solved. Some components are also located in /System/Library/Quicktime/

What I had to do was trash my Quicktime application.
Goggled "Quicktime"...Since my operating system was "Lepoard" 10.5.8 - I downloaded and install QuickTime 7.5.5 for Leopard and let the install do its trick...
Once the machine restarted I went back to Apple QuickTime support page and downloaded the update QuickTime 7.7 for Leopard - let the install do its trick and after the restart I opened my movie download file in Quicktime and "BLAM!!!" it worked...THANK YOU!
Funny Apple QuickTime folks didn't know how to solve this issue...its nothing new and they are to be in the "know". The ineptness...wasting over of two weeks of my time emailing back and forth, then waiting a day in between for a response is unforgiveable.
Again THANKS...

Is there a way to transfer home videos to my ipod touch?

You may have to use a third-party conversion program. I like HandBrake. It is free.
