60GB 5g iPod Audio Problems on VIDEOS only

I've been looking all over the web for a solution but haven't found anything acceptable.
I'm using the latest version of iTunes, G5 iMac, 1 GIG RAM, System 10.4.5.
While my Music sounds great, my videos do not. Volume on Videos is adequate but not loud enough to block outside noises (if a subway passes by, I can't hear my Videos at all).
I've tried the option tab in iTunes and raised the volume slider all the way to the right (100%); I've tried "iPod Volume Booster" and "gopod". None of these utilities help.
While extracting DVDs in Handbrake I also use the higher audio settings: 48000 Sample Rate, 160 Bitrate. Results are still as I describe above.
Any other suggestions? Any way I can increase volume as I'm extracting videos (I don't see any such option in Handbrake)
Thanks in advance for any help.

Not answered, just removing.

Exporting video for iPod - audio OK but video is "white"

I know this issue has been raised before but I cannot find a clear resolution anywhere - happy to be pointed to the right place.
Some time ago I converted some old VHS home movies to DVD and they play fine. To view them via AppleTV I've converted them to MP4 using H.264/AAC via MEGUI, and they work fine in iTunes on the PC and on AppleTV.
Once they were in iTunes I tried converting them for iPod but the output is a blank white video screen though the audio is fine.
To diagnose the problem I tried loading the MP4 version directly into Quicktime (Version 7.6.8)where the play fine. Then I tried exporting them for iPod and I get the same white screen plus audio.
I've seen this issue dismissed as due to some form of DRM but I doubt that is the case here. The video is my own, the DVDs I created are not CSS protected and the MP4s are also unprotected.
I've also seen it attributed to a missing codec, but that is unlikely given both iTunes and Quicktime play the videos without a hitch.
Any clues on how to proceed?
John

Last post before I leave things alone for a while.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes and Quicktime and iTunes no longer chews up lots of CPU when trying to convert one particular Quicktime created file.
I've also recreated each file again from the same source, the AVI encoded as DV-PAL with screen res of 720x576. I created a series of test cases to try to pin the problem down and I think the best exposition is the following -
The problem
An MPEG4 file exported from Quicktime loads and plays in iTunes, plays on AppleTV and can be converted for iPod.
An almost identical MPEG4 file created by MEGUI using the x264 encoder, latest build 1649, and all the same settings as Quicktime loads and plays in iTunes, plays on AppleTV but when converted for iPod produces a file with audio but the video is "white". Looking at the file size, less than 2mb, it is pretty obvious that the video stream is simply not there.
Clues
Quicktime Movie Inspector reports the screen resolution of the file it exported as 720x540 while for the MEGUI created file it reports a very odd 787x576. Note that Windows Media Player and YAMB (MP4Box utility) both report this same file as 720x576 which is what I would expect as MEGUI did not resize the video. As an aside, WMP and YAMB also report the Quicktime created file as 720x540 so they agree with Quicktime on that score at least.
Obvious Question
Why does Quicktime report an incorrect screen resolution, and is this contributing to the conversion problem in iTunes?
My understanding is that MPEG4 uses 16x16 macroblocks and so the dimensions of anything to be encoded must be in multiples of 16 and 787 is not a multiple of 16.
Of course, the 787x576 screen resolution could be a red herring.
Details from Quicktime Movie Inspector follow:

Audio problems in video imported fro iphone4

I imported some videos made on iphone on a windows XP - without using itunes.
Now the videos present audio problems in avidemux.
If I convert them using Handbrake in several formats (e.g. avi), I can't manage to make them readable by Windows MovieMaker

Is there a way to extract the audio so I can clean it up using Sound Soap
iMovie 06 has some good filters for that.
I also use Final Cut Express, so maybe it would be better to just export it to FCE and then extract the video from there?
Final Cut Express (or iMovie 06) will give you better quality but it won't solve the buzzing noise. I also suspect a grounding problem.

Nikon 5200 video problems no video only audio after import

Recently I bought a Nikon 5200 and when I import the h.264 footage all i get is a audio and a black screen. How can I import this properly. I have seen a bunch of ******** about paying for some convereter but I dont think anything as streamlined as these two should have a problem like this

The available bandwidth is not sufficient for you to full multi chats, but you have enough to join by audio only. This means you need a little more bandwidth, try to close iTunes and other B.W. dependent devices (like game console)s should be shut down.
Try to let the other party invite you to join the chat instead of you hosting it by initiating the chat.

Sync'ing iPod Audio to Digital Video

I recorded a speech recently with two HD digital cameras, recording at 29.97. The video tracks sync'd easily. The speaker wore an iPod Nano with a microphone. The iPod output an m4a file, which sounds great, but is out of sync with the video. It starts out fine, but after about 3 minutes, the difference is noticeable. At 20 minutes, the audio is over 1 second behind the video. I have tried re-sampling the video in Soundtrack Pro, Soundbooth, and Audition. Nothing is working. What can I do to correct this?

It's a common problem when trying to combine non-timecode and non-trimeframe based media to precisely timed video formats.
Select the video track and examine its length. Write it down, accurate to the frame.
Select the audio track and select speed adjust. Enter the length of the video track. Render.
The small variation in pitch should not be noticeable. If it is, do the adjustment the other way by changing the length of the video track to match the audio. Thsi will impose a clearly visible hiccup in the frames on a regular interval but people tend to gloss over weird video these days; they've been numbed to bad video over the Net.

Audio problems with video chat between Mac & PC

Hello,
My parents and I both recently purchased web cams to use for video chats. I am on a Mac, using an iSight through iChat, while they have a PC and are using a Logitech Quickcam 5000 through AOL IM version 5.9. I have successfully video chatted with other mac/isight users. Almost everything works fine chatting with my parents - the video works, and they can hear me. I however, am unable to hear them. I thought this might be a problem on their end, but when they open a video chat with me, an error message pops up saying that I "do not support the talk feature, or am not accepting talk invitations." They have been able to get the audio to work when doing so between two PCs using AOL IM. Is there anything I can do on my end that will let their audio come through to me?

Hi Raoul,
Welcome To The Apple Discussion Pages.
If you mean you are trying to do Audio only chats with a PC which is using AIM 5.9 or 5.5 then it will not work.
The AIM application has never been able to do Audio Only chats to iChat
One end needs to have a camera (preferably the Mac end).
The PC end stilll needs to do the "Tuning" after getting to the Porperties.
They may also need to enable the application through the XP firewall.
And it goes without saying they have to be on XP.

DVD to iPod audio problems

OK ive already encoded the dvd using handbreak and have put it on my ipod but for some reason there is no audio. All i can hear is a loud static noise through out the whole dvd. Is this some kind of security thing or did i just do something wrong?
Here are my settings for the audio:
sample rate: 44100
bitrate: 128

I bougt the Super DVD to iPod converter program and I'm having multiple problems.
First I couldn't figure out the registration code that I needed to enter from keeping lenogo charging me extra.
Then I think I finally figured it out because I was able to start the program but then after I pressed convert a large window popped up saying that all the conversion processes of the DVD failed. Every time.
And there is no phone number available to contact Lenogo support with, and the ticket I submitted, which I assume is a support email type thing, is not being replied to, and all the emails I send to their support email address, now totallying 5, maybe 6, has still yet to be replied to. I am very frustrated.
Does anyone have any advice or suggestions? If I can't get in touch I'm calling my credit card company, which I guess is the last resort. Ok, thanks

IPod 5G Problem Writing Video to Disk

I just purchased an "open box" model of a 30Gb iPod with video this weekend. I have no trouble downloading songs, but I cannot seem to download 2 TV shows that were purchased on iTunes.
The error message says "Attempting to copy to the disk (iPod name) failed. The disk could not be read from or written to." I could not locate an error message number. The error pops up when the video is almost done loading.
Any suggestions?

hmmmmmm. this document is the best place to start with that one:
"Disk cannot be read from or written to" when syncing iPod or "Firmware update failure" error when updating or restoring iPod
... but if it looks like the files themselves are damaged, it would be best to report the problem to the iTunes Store. the email form at the bottom of this FAQ would probably be the best one to use:

Sync / iPod Summary problem. (Video / Pictures etc)

Hello.
I've got a bit of a weird problem going on. I've never had an iPod before nor have I used iTunes so I might be doing something completely wrong. Anyway on to my problem:
When syncing movies/videos to my iPod it doesn't work then in the summary "Sync movies to iPod" isn't ticked nor is the picture one or any other apart from music. So I tick them and then click apply then it syncs and then when it finished it says "Cannot find "Dannys Ipod" The required disk space cannot be found". I've got enough space I'm sure of that and my iPod is connected correctly- otherwise the summary screen wouldn't show. Like I said my iPod and iTunes is new and I have restored it once or twice and it wouldn't work. I've also tried to tick "Enable disk use" and apply and still- comes up with the same error message.
Any help on this would be appreciated, if you've had this problem how did you fix it etc.

Well, I don't have an iPod video....maybe try the iPod forums, instead of iTunes for Windows?
And I am totally not sure this will work, but try assigning your iPod a specific drive letter such as "W" or something not already used, and far away in the alphabet from any other drive letters that are being used.
Windows confuses iPod with network drive or hard drive and may keep iPod from mounting or songs may seem to disappear

HUGE audio problem - Right channel only?

Editing i hear both channels or atleast 1 channel split. Regardless, after i export all of my clips except some sound loops/musc is on the right channel... What happened?
Had a video where only some clips(coincidently from a certain camera) were all right channel where as all other clips where both channels.
Confused. Give me some help over here.
Thanks

You got it!
That solved evrything.
Now my next audio thing is that my footage will come in one one side(left channel) so i have to put it from stereo to dual mono. However that is due to a setting of recording on my cam im sure.

Audio Problem With Videos

Recently, I loaded into iTunes two episodes of the Simpsons. They're in iTunes and work when I play them, but to get them on my ipod I right clicked "convert to ipod", which after converting gave me a new video that played on my ipod, but there was no sound. Does anyone know why this might be and how I could fix it?

Macbook Pro XP Boot Camp Audio Problem

I've got a uni body Macbook Pro running XP with boot camp. Everything has been fine for the last 4 or 5 months I've had it. In the last few weeks though, I've been having really annoying audio problems. The only reason I have it XP even installed is for games (Battlefield 2 and Steam). I'd run skype to talk to a buddy and then play the game. Audio was fine, including the mic.
Lately, skype will just shut down out of no where and give me that error message where it asks you to send a report. Also, the audio in Battlefield 2 will just cut out. I'd still be in the game and connected but there would be no audio, except for the game VOIP. Remember things were working fine for months.
First I tried repairing with the Mac disk, then I tried different Real Tek drivers, then I tried uninstalled and reinstalling the game. None of that worked. Finally, I nuked the partition and did a clean install. The first thing I installed was BF2. Guess what. SAME EXACT PROBLEM. Audio cut out about 10 minutes in. In game VOIP was fine but all other audio was gone.
Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas at ALL? There aren't exactly a bunch of different drivers I can try, and like I said I've already tried reinstalled the drivers from the mac disk. I have no idea what else to do.
tl:dr - new mbp audio worked fine for months, lately audio in games totally cuts out. Tried reinstalled game, drivers, etc, didn't work. Nuked from orbit and did clean bootcamp install of XP. Battlefield 2 has same problem, same with skype. What next?

What anti-virus solution are you running in Windows?
Users have experienced crashes and blue screens of death from Norton products. Norton has resolved these issues in their 2009 product line. I would only recommend Norton 2009 products, Kaspersky, and AVG for anti-virus solutions.
Have you formatted your Windows partition as NTFS, or has it been formatted as Fat 32?
Fat 32 will not handle file sizes of 3.5 GB or larger, and, overall, it seems to always cause issues.
Have you tried a SMC reset?

Audio sync problem with videos imported from iPod Touch

I have an iPod Touch 4th Generation that I used to shoot video at a family birthday party. When I imported the footage into iMovie '11, the audio is not in sync with the video (video is about two seconds behind audio) and there is only the left channel of audio. I verified that the video on the iPod plays just fine--no audio sync problem, both left and right channels work. I just upgraded to iOS 5 on the iPod Touch. The iMac is running Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
As a workaround, I can import the video into iPhoto instead. When I play the video in iPhoto, there are no audio sync problems and both channels of audio can be heard. I have imported other iPod Touch videos successfully into iMovie '11 in the past few months, but this has been the first time these problems have occurred. Any help would be appreciated.

Premiere cannot handle clips with variable framerate.
Your converted clips need to have constant framerate.
Otherwise use a converter like Handbrake.

My Ipod won't play audio on my TV only video!

I've notice that everyone else seems to have a problem playing video on their TVs but not audio... If I play a video I hear audio, but if I want to hear music only I don't hear anything!
I own an Apple Composite AV Cable and it is plugged in correctly, but I can't still play any music. I own a 5th generation Ipod and a Samsung LCD HDTV.
Any suggestions? Should I buy a different cable?

Ive just spent days trying to solve this problem. Ive got an Ipod touch(2nd gen), Samsung TV and a component cable. When playing vids I got both images and sound but as soon as I wanted to just listen to my music and the TV failed to detect video signal - it closed off the component input displaying "no signal".
Its not ideal but if you have the official Component cable and a surround sound set up you should find enough cable to connect the audio cables to the Line in on your surround sound and the video feed back up to the tv.
Im pleased to report I can now enjoy my full library through my home theatre and watch the videos on my big screen tv.
Hope its of some help.
