30GB Video freezing and skipping

When I am running on the treadmill with my black 30GB video attached to my shorts my iPod skips and freezes. I can start a song before I begin running, but after I start running if I try to change the song it will not play the next song until I hold the iPod still. Almost like a CD player without skip protection. I am guessing it has something to do with the HHD. I would like a confirmation on that though or any other thoughts.
TIA

Hi,
Thanks for replying to my thread. But I do not agree with you about the hard drive memory fact. I am well aware that these iPods contain moving part, and as I mentioned earlier, this is not my first iPod. I have a 20GB 3rd Gen. iPod also, and I took it to the Gym, trail/track running using the belt clip, and the run usually lasted for about 1.5 hour, and I never experience any skipping. But the 5th Gen iPod does. Therefore I do not think this is a common and acceptable fact for people using iPod with video for exercise/running purpose.

  • I updated to IOS 7 on my Ipad 2 and now videos will not play, they freeze and skip and will not play.

    I updated to IOS 7 on my Ipad 2 and now videos will not play, they freeze and skip and will not play.  Can anyone help?

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • 60gb ipod photo keeps freezing and skipping through songs

    I've had my 60gb ipod photo for almost a year and it keeps freezing and skipping through songs and sometimes it won't respond to a reset. I have to let the battery run down in order to use it again. I have restored it several times and it seems to keep happenning at least once a week.I have the latest software for it. Is there any thing else I can do?

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync all music and resync what you  want
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:       
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    -  Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • Export QuickTimes freeze and skip while playing back

    I’m new to Motion, and growing concerned. I’ve purchased and learned Motion for a specific job. I’ve built some very cool elements with many layers. I’ve grown accustom to the slow performance, skipping etc. while working on the project. That’s ok.
    What concerns me is exporting. When exporting Draft or Best versions, most all the time the movies freeze or skip while playing back, either in QuickTime or Final Cut Pro
    When exporting I select Export, as QuickTime Movie, using current project settings
    I’m using Motion 3.02-HDV 1080-60i project, 10 seconds long
    4x 2.5 Ghz G5
    5 GB Ram
    I would appreciate and advice or tricks to be able to export a decent version of what I’ve built.
    Thanks!

    Andy, thanks for your help.
    I have 30 gigs available on the hardrive. The file exports are usually less than a gig. I have a GeForce 6600 card.
    When I select export setting from “current project settings” it uses the Animation codec and plays with freezes and skips. But with in that video that does play well, it plays very clean and clear.
    When I change the export to 1080i60 at best quality, I’m guessing it uses the HDV codec? It does play back with out the skips and freezes. But it looks like **** with horizontal lines in titles stripes etc.
    Is there a way to make the 1080i60 video playback clean?
    Thanks!

  • I'm Having problems with the video freezing and the sound carrying on since I up graded my iPad to ios8  BBC IPLAYER

    Your Mac runs maintenance in the background for you.
    Command + R gives you access to restore, repair, or reformat the drive using OS X Recovery
    No idea why that was suggested.
    You may have a third party video player installed that's causing an incompatibility issue.
    Check these folders:
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/
    /Library/Input Methods/
    /Library/InputManagers/
    /Library/ScriptingAdditions
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/
    ~/Library/Input Methods/
    ~/Library/InputManagers/
    ~/Library/ScriptingAdditions
    The first four locations listed are in the root-level Library on your hard disk, not the user-level Library in your Home folder.The tilde (~) represents your Home folder.
    To access the Home folder in OS X Lion or Mountain Lion, open the Finder, hold the Option key, and chooseGo > Library.

  • I cannot watch any TV shows on Itunes. The episode will play for a few seconds and then freeze and skip forward randomly. I have a Windows 7 PC and I didn't have problems before the Itunes 11 update. Any ideas?

    After updating to ITunes 11 a while back, I am no longer able to watch TV shows on my laptop. If I try to watch an episode, it freezes and then skips forward randomly. I have a Windows 7 laptop and I didn't have any problems before ITunes 11.

    I don't use a graphics card, I use on board graphics as my computer case is too small to fit a graphics card inside.
    There are no effects applied to the clip, only one layer of video and 1 layer of audio (both from the same file). The video is in MP4 format at 720p.
    Before I rendered the sequence, I had a yellow bar above the sequence. Also, I imported the same clip into CC Standard and it played fine (also had a yellow bar) with no lag.
    I think I've fixed the issue now as rendering the sequence made the video play smoothly with no apparent issues.
    If any other clips have lag or any other problems in CC 2014, I'll just import them into CC standard and see if that works.

  • Quicktime video freezes/pauses/skips while audio continues at normal rate.

    So here's my problem. I used a Canon Vixia to record some AVCHD footage of my band playing at a gig. I imported it into Final Cut Pro 7 using Log & Transfer. I edited the footage just fine (very simple cuts to remove unnecessary footage and add some title overlays).
    However, upon being exported, whenever I opened the .mov in Quicktime, the video would pause, freeze, or skip while the audio continued. Then the video would move extremely quickly to catch up to the audio. It has done this exported as ProRes 422 (LT), Apple Intermediate Codec, and H.264 (I used Compressor to get it into H.264). The only program to play without any skipping/speeding up was VLC, and there was some heavy pixelization/grey screens going on.
    Upon a whim, I uploaded one of the clips to Facebook. It still played the skips for me, but I had friends tell me that it played perfectly for them. I used a different computer, and sure enough, not a skip in sight. Going back to my computer, it still played the skips/speed-ups. They are present in Facebook, YouTube, Quicktime (both 7 and X), MPEG Streamclip, and during preview by pressing spacebar with the file selected.
    I'm running this on a 15" Macbook Pro (Early 2011 model) with Snow Leopard (10.6.8), 2.4 GHz Intel Core i5, and 4 GB of RAM.

    Burn Error Proof DVDs (Well, close to error proof!)
    Use the SLOWEST possible burn option your burner will allow in Encore, since it is much better to take a bit more time burning the disc than it is to burn "fast" and have a disc that won't play
    Set the VIDEO portion of the transcoding options to a Maximum of 7,000 so your burned disc will have a better chance at playing in desktop players (which support burned discs, if at all, only as an "after thought" of the DVD specification)
    Use AC3 or PCM audio transcode settings for best player compatibility (some discussion of MPEG audio not being supported by all players, especially for NTSC discs)

  • FREEZING AND SKIPPING ON IPOD

    I received a message that my Ipod was corrupted and I had to reinstall to factory settings. I did that and since then my Ipod freezes when playing and skips songs. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this?
    Thank you.

    ] Windows users having trouble with their iPods should locate a Mac user. In many cases when an iPod won't show up on a PC that it will show up on the Mac. Then it can be restored. When the PC user returns to his computer the iPod will be recognized by the PC, reformatted for the PC, and usable again. By the way, it works in reverse too. A Mac user often can get his iPod back by connecting it to a PC and restoring it.
    Tips
    a. It does not matter whether the format is completed or not, the key is to erase (or partly) the corrupted firmware files on the Hard Drive of the iPod. After that, when the iPod re-connected with a computer, it will be recognized as an fresh external hard drive, it will show up on the iTunes 7.
    b. It is not a difficult issue for a Mac user to find a window base computer, for a PC user, if they can’t find any Mac user, they can go to a nearest Apple Shop for a favor.
    c. You may need to switch around the PC and Mac, try to do several attempts between “Format” and “Restore”

  • Videos freeze and crash PC in itunes and QuickTime

    I have Wndows Vista 32 home premium - latest versions of iTunes and QuickTime will not play back music videos I downloaded via iTunes. Videos hang and PC freezes up. These are m4v format videos.

    Sounds like you had the same problem I did. Computer would pretty much die when trying to watch video or sync video or photos to my iPod. Moving them to an external hard drive and everything works great again.

  • Videos freeze and distorted sound

    Hi,
    about a week ago i bought the HP Pavilion 15 notebook PC, windows 8-64 bit, Product number: F4T60EA#ABU
    that has an intel i5 processor and ITB memory. About a few days after using it the HP support asisstant program suggested a sort of system update that led me to the HP website and i followed the instructions etc.
    Unfortunately since then i have been having trouble with any videos i watch online (youtube, streaming etc). The video freezes for a second randomly and then the sound distorts and then the video goes back to playig as normal...this distortion happens every 5-10 seconds of video playing....I have tried uninstalling Flash player and reinstalling the latest version, however this has not helped. I dont really use my laptop for much accept bits of work and the internet so i ahvent downloaded anything that could possibly be the cause.
    Please help!
    Thank you

    Hi numar96, sorry to hear that you are having issues with watching videos. I have had this issue in the past and what I have found resolves the issue is changing the Refresh Rate on the display. I have a short YouTube video that explains how to change the Refresh Rate. Please click on the link that I have provided to get to the video.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzfcxcdKRKo
    If this does NOT resolve the issue, please let me know.
