Airplay only sound no video

airplay only sound no video

I am trying to watch NBC, ABC, CBS and other channels. I tried from Safari right from the net work and the app they provide. I get the sound and no video. I see this problem all over mac forums and Mac rumors. Then it hit me duh, why aren't I asking this question in apple support? So here I am. I have never had an issue with airplay it has always work flawlessly. Now it is a no show tv shows.  I hope I can get a answer here. Are they somehow blocking the video from using airplay? Some one please give a Apple TV addict a hand. Thank you for your time, David

  • TV@ANYWHERE can record only sound no video

    I have just bought tv@anywhere master even the seller recommended PixelView not MSI but I have MSI Motherboard (875 neo) MSI FX5200 so I took this tv tuner.
    It works fine the picture is clear and the sound is mono (Strange It doesn't support stereo !! even I connected the composite connection) but whn I capture every thing seems alright but when viewing the mpeg file there is only sound but no picture (only black screen)
    Any help please because If it doesn't work I have to return it within 3 days only

    Are you certain it's the "master" (8606)? The older non-"master" is MONO only.
    If it is the "master" and you are in a PAL region, check the chipset (881) suffix. If it is -17, return the card. Get a later stepping, if you are determined to stay with the card.

  • Airplay only plays audio -  video is black screen with subtitles

    On my 5th generation IPOD Touch, after downloading a movie from Itunes, I only see audio. The video is all black, with subtitls only.
    After many attemts to fix this - i.e. reboot Apple TV, Reboot TV, Reboot IPod touch, Reboot WIFI Router, I still saw this problem.
    This is with IOS 7.01.  Has anyone seen this problem? So annoying and frustrating!

    I suspect you are out of luck based on this:
    Can I play my rental on more than one device?
    If you download a rented movie on your computer: You can transfer it to a device such as your Apple TV (1st generation), iPhone, iPad, or iPod if it’s a standard-definition film (movies in HD can only be watched on your computer, iPad, iPhone 4 or later, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV). Once you move the movie from your computer to a device, the movie will disappear from your computer's iTunes library. You can move the movie between devices as many times as you wish during the rental period, but the movie can only exist on one device at a time.
    If you download a rented movie on your iPhone 4 or later, iPad, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV: It is not transferable to any other device or computer.

  • Quicktime Plays only sound no video

    I have had this problem for a while now and never really tried to figure out the problem until now. I just upgraded Quicktime to 7.0 today but I still can't see any video when playing a .MOV file all I get it sound. That goes for if I try to play it in anyother type of player. I have tried to find help but so far I have come up empty. I just want to be able to play .mov files and see video. I hope someone can help me out here thanks.

    The first thing I noticed was that you used Microsoft Word to make your Web page code. Bad choice and sloppy code.
    Your movies do not "stream" (they download) so the extra hint tracks are a waste of bandwidth and are not needed in the movies.
    You are linking directly to the .mov files (also bad). Many computers (PC's) will simply try and download the files. Each movie link should be in it's own html coded page and should have the proper object and embed tags or the QuickTime plug-in may not work. Internet Explorer requires these tags to turn on ActiveX. Many PC users will never be able to see your movies without them.
    Last is the fact that you've used the H.264 video codec in the files. This codec requires the viewer to have QuickTime 7 or the Windows Public Preview 3 installed on their computers. This leaves out Windows 95, 98, ME and Mac users running anything under 10.3.9.
    Sorry for all the negative news. This is how most of us learned, too.

  • 1280x720 mp4 videos stop playing video after update, only sound works

    this is what appears in the inspector:
    h264, 1280QTKitMultiplicationSignWithSpaces720, Milhões

    Only sound, no video anymore. It worked fine until the 9.1 iTunes update. Now I can only see the video with the VLC player.

  • Airplay on AppleTV: no picture only sound

    I can get AirPlay on my iPad to play only one type of video on AppleTV, YouTube. But nothing else works. Any other video, for example from New York Times app, the WSJ app, Netfix or from the iPad PBS app, even though they give me the option to select AppleTV, I get only sound and no video on AppleTV. The Airplay icon does appear on the ATV screen but says Unknown/Untitled and only provide sound but no picture. I've updated everything, ATV (just last night), my iMac (last week) and my iPad and iPhone (both yesterday afternoon). Each component has the latest software updates. Still the only video I can view using AirPlay from my iPad is YouTube, which is already an option of the ATV menu. So what's the point of Airplay? Am I missing something?

    So what you're saying is that Airplay supports only one video app and that's YouTube.
    2 video apps. youtube and the ipod app.
    That's not quite how Apple promoted its capability. Besides, the Airplay option appears as a choice in the drop-down menu of all videos I play on my iPad, but again all the appears on the TV screen is an Unknown icon and sound. I'd think that if it could play on the iPad, it would play on the Apple TV.
    as already stated, the airplay icon will show as it is able to stream the audio to an appeltv.
    individual apps will need to build in support for video airplay, and at present this option it not available to developers in the SDK.

  • IPad to AppleTV sound only - built in Video App

    I used to be able to airplay from my ipad to my appletv but now only sound plays, no video. I have made sure my iPad and AppleTV (latest version) are all running up to date software.
    I am trying to play via the built in Video app on the iPad , not a third party app.
    This used to work.
    How can I get it working again.  I've also tried restarting the Apple TV and the iPad multiple times - didn't help

    My router is an Airport Extreme. It's a Walking Dead Episode I bought on iTunes.
    I worked at Apple in Core OS doing Mac OS X kernel development for 21 years so I know something about Apple products.  This is some kind of bug and not ''user error''
    I can occasionally get it to play a video by constantly trying over and over again and also restarting my ipad and appletv - there is no rhyme or reason as to when it will actually play and episode. And then the next time I try it will just do the sound again.
    This did not used to happen - probably 2-3 months ago it would play 100% of the time
    Really annoying.

  • I get sound no video when using AirPlay.  Any ideas?

    Do you get an "HDCP error"?
    Since the last ATV software update, I have had  problems playing You Tube content from the iPad to the ATV using airplay, yet the same content from the You Tube channel on the ATV plays fine. I get the dreaded "HDCP error" which is nonsense, as YouTube content does not have this protection. Netflix also gives the same error. (I have posted seperately about this problem.)
    I have had a couple of years of fault-free playing with my setup, the only thing that has changed is the Apple ATV software. Ergo, they need to fix whatever bug they introduced. None of the recommended "fixes" have worked.

  • IPhone 4: connecting to TV for the 1st time with new "Composite AV Cable" only plays sound, not video on TV. However, this new cable works fine with old iPod to play videos on TV. Suggestions?

    I'm trying to connect my iPhone 4 to my TV to play videos via use of a new "Composite AV Cable" but only sound will play off TV, not video.  I've tried every yellow/red/white input on the TV but to no avail.  Any suggestions?

    The iPhone 4, unlike iPod, doesn't ask you to set for PAL or NTSC.  In fact, in the SETTINGS/Video menu it only asks if you want to "Start Playing From Beginning", "Closed Captioning" and "Home Sharing".  I was surprised it had no settings like the iPod at all.

  • My iphone 3gs no longer streams video to my apple tv only sound can anyone help?

    my recently updated iphone 3gs no longer streams pictures/videos to apple tv only sound, can anyone help?

    I have the exact same problem. And my wife's iphone 5 also has the same problem. Anyone knows the resolution? It worked fine before we restored both phones. Thanks.

  • Docked iPod only outputs sound during video to TV

    I have a 5G iPod in an Apple dock, connected to my TV using a Monster audio cable and an S-Video cable. For some reason, it only outputs sound during videos or a photo slide show - not at all for music only playback. I'm baffled! Any idea why? It's a Panasonic plasma, and I've tried three different inputs. None work for music, but video is fine.

  • I dont get sound for videos, games and music but ringtone still works. When i press volume buttons on side of phone i only get the picture of the nell and no little dots underneath. This is on my iphone 4s and ipad. It happened at the same time.

    Recurring theme with the 4s losing alerts except for the phone ringing.  Most complaints seem to center on the 7.1 upgrade.  The fix is dodgy, putting in a charger, playing a you tube video then pulling out the charger and wiggling it until you get the sound back.  When you get the sound back, the volume buttons start to work again.  Alternate solutions involve cleaning the docking port with a toothbrush, running a pick over the electrodes etc.
