30G iPod doesn't play audio in movies or videos

My 30G iPod doesn't play audio in movies or videos... Can anybody help me?
Thanks!

What is the source of the videos and movies? Downloaded from the iTunes store or did you convert them from other sources? If the latter...
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...

  • HT4072 Can I play audio from movies in the DVD player using iTunes or Airplay?

    I would like to play audio from movies in the MacBook DVD player using iTunes or Airplay? Is this possible?

    Is it important that the music come from a video, or are you just looking to listen to music in the background, while doing something else.  If the later, you can certainly play music from the Music App, Pandora, or iHeart Radio, etc., and with the music playing, tap your home button to go to your home page and open anything else you want and the music will continue.
    I don't have any videos to try out right now, but you try the same thing out and if the music continues, it works.  If it doesn't, it doesn't.

  • HT3775 Why doesn't QuickTime play audio for some avi videos?

    You can only use QuickTime Player 7 to play that 12 year old format.

  • My iPod doesn't play songs...it's scanning them. Help.

    My iPod doesn't play the songs. When I select a song, I press play and it bounces right back to the menu. Then, all on its own, it begins to scan through everyone of my 1,200 songs. What's happening? I did restart it an also re-booted the pod...nothing...same thing. Any suggestions? Would it help if I erased everything in the iPod?

    Yep, a restore would probably be the next step.

  • Video in swc doesn't play audio

    Hi, I have a flv on the timeline. When I export a swf the audio plays. When I export a swc and instantiate the movie clip that houses the flv on the timeline, the audio doesn't play. Is there something I should look for to fix this? Any tips?
    cheers.

    I too, found that A3 Slideshow to be very cumbersome... I gave up and went back to iMovie. Much better and quicker, especially adding music and "knowing" exactly where the music will start and end. My daughter's wedding was last week and I wanted to show quick shots of the 'happenings', using A3 slideshow (bad mistake). I was totally embarrassed; songs overplayed to the wrong location and played songs that were previously deleated (and they didn't show up as songs to be played, go figure). Anyway, iMovie was and is so much better. A3 slideshow process needs to be worked on.

  • Ipod doesn't play the songs! please help!!

    when i try to play a song, the title of the song just like sits there but it doesn't play, like the numbers don't go forward, it just sits at 0:00. It isnt frozen because i can change the volume and do everything else. When i click the middle button to toggle from volume to how far into the song i am, if i scroll over a bit to make me further in the song, it just changes to the next one.
    Just now i tried going to the next song or something and whats happening now is every song i have is like popping up on the screen, like its scrolling through all my songs one by one till it got to the end and now its at the main menu.
    Can anyone please help????

    Try resetting your iPod and/or resyncing the files to the iPod. Also below are two articles that may help

  • ALSA and WINE: Doesn't play audio on 32-bit prefix

    I have made a 32-bit prefix for WINE, however the sound does not seem to work whilst on a 32-bit prefix. I have installed the lib32 packages that the Wiki page has told me to install, however it does not play audio. One of the programs I have installed shows that music is indeed playing, however there is no sound being outputted. Winecfg's audio test doesn't play anything.

    Thanks for the reply,
    I can confirm that I have all six of those packages installed on my system.
    For some reason, WINE outputs this when Test Sound is clicked, unsure if it relates to the audio issue or not.

  • 5G iPod doesn't play sound

    I have a 5G 30GB iPod that just today stopped playing and sound. It still lets you scroll through the menus and also shows its playing a song, but you cannot hear anything. It won't play sound through the headphone jack, and I also have an Alpine CD Player with the iPod direct connect cable, and that does not work as well. I reset the iPod today and that did not do anything, and I also tried restoring it and that did not fix the problem as well. I contacted Apple support and found out it would cost $130 to fix my iPod, but the lady I talked to could not tell me what is exactly wrong with the iPod because she had never heard of this problem before. I'm basically looking to hopefully fix it myself since I dont want to shell out $130 to repair it, but probably will give in if I cannot fix this myself.

    mine does the same thing...i got it replaced once under warranty and they gave me a "new" one which began to malfunction 3 months after i got it :\ It plays the music all staticy and when i took it in they told me nothing was wrong with it...but it doesn't play and ive changed the head phones and reset it and run all the diagnostic tests...needless to say im very dissappointed with apple right now! what makes it worse is when i took it in the ipod wasn't even registered to me which means they gave me someone else's ipod which had been replaced! but since it was out of warranty when i found out it was 140 to get a new one if they found something wrong with it. so idk but this is my 2nd 5G ipod and i think its a bug that is in all of them.

  • How can i play audio from movies from atv2 to airport express?

  • Playing Audio Books On My Video iPod

    I have a new 80 gig video ipod. I puchased an audio book from iTunes. The book downloaded to my computer just fine and I can play the book on my computer. File is located in the Audio Book folder and is in the M4B format.
    The book is on my iPod, located in the Audio Book folder. When I select the file to play, it shows that it is playing for about 3 seconds and then goes back to the main menu. It never starts playng.
    Further, whenever I sync my computer and iPod, the play count keeps going up. It now says that I have played the file over 30 times when in fact, I haven't heard one word of it.
    I hope someone can help.

    I posted about this problem yesterday as I was having the same problem. I contacted iTunes customer service using their email form on that page. I heard back from them in about 10 hours. They authorized me to download the book again. It plays like a charm now.
    Apple has superb customer service. I was treated with courtesy and promptly each time I contacted them about this problem and a couple of more issues that were my stupidity.
    I'm very pleased with Apple! !

  • IPod doesn´t play songs anymore - it just keeps skipping through the playli

    st
    When I select to play a song - no matter if selected from the menu via interpret / album or title, it goes to the list of songs, but doesn´t play them. It keeps skipping the tracks (1 to 2, to 3 and so on) until the end of the playlist is reached. Then, it returns to the main menu. Is it just some software bug, which can be solved or is it broken?
    I appreciate any help!

    You can use yamipod http://www.yamipod.com/main/modules/home/ to copy from iPod to the PC. If the files are damaged/corrupt on the iPod tho this won't do much good cuz you'll just have a copy of damaged files. Just use yamipod to copy and see if they play fine on the PC. If they do then you can continue with a restore using the iPOd updater. If that does not work it MAY be that the iPod is damaged and you will have to send it in for repairs

  • Safari doesn't play some quicktime movie/animation

    Hi there ..
    I have a problem with Safari:
    It doesn't play some on screen little quicktime windows used for advertising or .. showing little animation.
    Like www.luxology.com (they have a little quicktime playing)
    But if I put the mouse over such little windows and rotate the mouse wheel they play.
    But they don't play automatically, only by rotating the mouse.
    I don't know if it happened after I used Webkit or after Quicktime 7.1
    Any Help?

    That site uses Flash (.swf) and not all Flash files can be viewed using QuickTime.
    I don't know if there is a Universal version of the Flash Player available but it is what you should be using for features like Flash in a browser.
