Audio echo on podcasts

I have recently come across a problem where my podcasts are playing back on my iphone with an echo/slapback on them. This does not happen with music from my music library on my iphone, or the same podcasts when played from my computer. I have tried reloading the podcasts, but this does not help.

You might be playing them at 1/2 speed. Tap the now playing screen to get at the additional controls. If the box below the right end of the scrubber bar is anything but white, tap it until it is white and reads 1X.
Here is a link to a picture and description of the additional podcast/audiobook controls.

Resolve audio echo in 4s handset, not Bluetooth or headset?

Has anyone figured out how to fix the audio echo in the 4s handset? This is my second unit.

Did you find a solution to this problem? have exactly the same issue!

Audio Echo

I have a 20 slide document with audio on all slides.
Everything is perfect until I publish to executable file. Then, on
one slide the audio echos through the whole slide. This only
happens to the one slide and you don't hear it in it's original
form.
Any ideas?

Welcome to our community, Janice
You might try exporting the audio clip from that slide to the
desktop. Rename it. Then remove the audio clip and import it back
in as a new clip for that slide.
I seem to recall seeing that as a solution for something like
what is happening to you.
Cheers... Rick

Flash videos playing with audio echo on initial load.

I have been having issues playing Flash videos in the current version of Firefox (10.0) as well as the previous version (unknown) over the past few months.
When I open a page with a video it will begin playing with an echo as if two videos are playing at the same time with a slight delay on the second video causing an audio echo effect. So basically one video with echoing audio. The websites that I experience this the most are yahoo sports (happens practically every time) and gamespot (happens occasionally). If I refresh the page the echoing effect goes away.
I am running Windows 7 64-bit.
I have updated video drivers on my ATI Radeon HD 5800 series.
My flash player / shockwave is 11,1,102,55 (updated) but I know I have experienced the same problem with previous versions.
I have the following plug-ins enabled:
1. Adobe Acrobat 10.1.2.45
2. Current version of Ad-Block
3. Divx Plus Web Player 2.2.0.52
4. Divx VOD Helper Plug-In 1.1.0.6
5. Microsoft Windows Media Player Firefox Plug-In 1.0.0.8
6. Quicktime Plug-In 7.7.1 / 7.7.1.0
7. Real Player 32 Bit Plug-Ins (4 total plug ins) 15.0.0.198
8. Veetle Plug-Ins (3 total plug ins) 0.9.17.0
I have some others as well but I thought these were the only relevant ones.
Can anyone help me with my problem?

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

Video audio echo iPad

Hi,
I've just purchased a second hand Ipad2. Everything seems fine but I've noticed occasionally if I pause a film whilst using the Video app, I get an audio echo when the film is restarted. This can be resolved by repausing and shifting the film along its time line but its a bit annoying !
Any ideas ?

That's weird.
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
By the way, are you confident that the iPad has not been jailbroke?

Audio echo during capture CS3

During capture I get this terrible audio echo. If I go into the Windows mixer panel and set a slider called Premiere down to zero that will stop it. But if I then wish to hear the audio (from Premiere) after the capture I have to turn it up again. Sureley this is not the correct way to do it.
It seems as though the input audio is being monitored and the delayed Premiere output at the same time. This will only happen when the capture screen is open.
Anyone any idea how to stop this without constantly playing with the mixer?
Very annoying.

Problem is only while the capture screen is being used. The delay is very pronounced.
So, your Captured footage does not exhibit this echo. Is that correct? Obviously, you have a latency issue. What are your Audio playback settings? I would also wonder about the Matrox card, as these have caused all sorts of Audio issues, though I do not recall any with Capture.
If the first statement is true, then your footage is clean and good, and all you have to do is adjust the necessary settings during Capture.
Good luck,
Hunt

IPod Shuffle has started playing audio books and podcasts too fast.

iPod Shuffle has started playing audio books and podcasts too fast. What can be done?

Some other iPods (that are not shuffles) have an onboard setting to change the playback speed for some types of iTunes media, such as audiobooks. But a shuffle has no screen, to change such settings.
First, do this to reset the shuffle, if you have not already
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1655
If that does not help, you may want to do a Restore on the shuffle. The Restore button is on the shuffle's Summary screen in iTunes. This will erase the shuffle, reinstall its software, and set it to default settings. The shuffle will be like it was when new, so this problem should be fixed.

Voice controling audio books and podcasts

Hi Folks:
As a Blind user of an iPhone 3GS, I am unable to extend voice control to audio books or podcasts. Am I doing something wrong or is this not available yet. If it is not available, can someone point me to where I can make this suggestion?
Thanks all over the place gang.

I too have run into this issue of voice control not recognizing my Podcast Playlist, hopefully it will be able to soon.

Audio stuttering in podcast app, IPod 6th gen.

Audio stuttering in podcast app, IPod 6th gen. I don't know what triggers it, other audio is fine- only podcasts. Set on 1x speed. Affects all podcasts (not a media problem).
I can't see any setting that could be affecting it.

Just tried that and did not work. Also I do understand and have made podcast lists in the app. The problem for me is that when done with the podcasts I can't just reach down and get my Ipod unless my truck is not moving. Think safety of everyone on the roads.

Major echo on podcasts

Hi,
I have just bought an I-pod touch and the video and music sound great on it - but my podcast and voice audio files has such a bad echo they can't be listened to.
I have removed them and uploaded them again (as they sound OK on the PC) but no joy - any ideas.
Podcasts were the main reason for buying the I-pod, so I am really frustrated about the problem.

Double check the playback speed. I know that when my playback speed is set to 1/2x it sounds like it has an echo. I have gotten "spoiled" and listen to most of my podcasts at 2x now. I can get through them faster and almost keep up with what I what to hear each week.

Audio echo in Lync meetings

I have an iMac 27" purchased brand new from Apple in early 2014. It’s a fine machine, but there’s an audio problem that’s killing my collaboration with coworkers. I’m hoping somebody here can help me resolve this. AppleCare couldn’t.
Most of the folks in my company are PC guys. We all use Microsoft Office365, specifically Lync. I have Lync for Mac 2011 installed on my iMac via Office365. I can see other users, I can join meetings, I can start meetings, I can share audio and video. All of that seems to work fine.
What’s killing me is that all of my colleagues report a terrible echo in a Lync meeting when they're speaking and I'm not muted. This happens when joining a meeting via the Lync Web App (after clicking Join Lync Meeting in an Outlook message). Maybe the Web App is a factor, don’t know. But I believe it also happens with the Lync desktop app.
My voice comes through loud and clear, no issues. But when they speak while I’m not muted, they hear themselves on about a one second delay. To prevent this, I have to mute myself in Lync and generally not speak during collaboration sessions. That’s, shall we say, less than ideal.
Here's what I've tried:
    •    Rejoining the meeting
    •    Turning down my Input volume in System Preferences
    •    Uninstalling the Boom app, which I thought might be messing with my audio
    •    Turning downy the audio volume within the Lync Web App
    •    Futzing around with the Lync preferences
    •    Changing my default browser from Safari to Firefox so the Lync Web App uses the latter browser
My Sound preferences look like this:
Nothing has worked. Audio on my MBP 15” Retina, purchased at the same time as my iMac, comes through fine, even with my Input volume cranked up to the highest level. My MBP System Preferences let me set “Use ambient noise reduction” for audio, which probably helps. That option is missing on the iMac, probably because the iMac mic has built-in noise reduction, or so I’m told. Ticking that option felt like my last hope, and it’s not even available on my iMac. Lowering my Input volume helped a bit, but then folks have real trouble hearing me, and the echo is still there. It's maddening.
Any ideas about what might be causing this annoying audio issue? More importantly, any idea how to fix it?
If this indicates that my iMac is defective in some way, I want to get that taken care of post haste. I appreciate any help you folks can offer. It would be good to be able to talk in meetings again.
Thanks.

Did you find a solution to this problem? have exactly the same issue!

Audio or Video Podcast?

Is there any way that I can get iTunes to show which podcasts and iTunes U content is video and which is audio only? I only want to transfer the videos to my ipad and only the audio to my ipod.

Video episodes for Podcasts and iTunes U have a small TV screen icon to the right of the episode's title. Expand the Podcast information by clicking on the right-facing arrow which is to the left of the series's title.

Audio Echo In P2P Apps

I've been making a few p2p applications in flex that have to do with audio sharing between clients, and I've got a nasty issue with echo that I can't seem to subdue. We are able to minimize the effects by having every end user plug in their headphones, which effectively cuts off the speakers feeding audio back into the microphone, but this is inefficient, and most users are on laptops that have a built in webcam, speakers, and microphone. We've also managed to reduce this (only minimally) by using the echo cancellation feature in the settings (or through actionscript). Is there any way we can get better quality audio like skype has or google talk? It seems like they have some built in echo cancellation features that really manage to squash all of that echo. Am i just missing some trick that would cancel it?
I've also done quite a bit of work through fms, and we are experiencing the same issues there. I know echo has been a time old problem since the invention of the phone, and alot of research and money has gone into fixing it, it just seems like we don't have it in flash player, and to me this is probably one of the most important features to have if we're going to be using flash clients for communication.

Adobe Connect Pro provides echo cancellation by extending Flash player. Unless Adobe business model changes, I doubt echo cancellation will be supported in plain Flash player.

How to allow audio download of podcast

How can we make it so visitors to our podcast page can download a podcast without having to subscribe to our podcast?

Upload the audio file as a zip to a folder on your server. Create a hyperlink to that zip and it will download when clicked in the browser. This page describes the method for PDFs but it is the same for any type of file....

.swf audio echo/HTMLPanel (Experts needed)

I have a bizzare issue (aren't they all?)
I apologize in advance for not being able to post an example. It's proprietary content built on a custom platform using Spry Framework. I can't post it or I'd be fired. That being said, I have been able to duplicate the issue using a bare-bones example with just a simple HTMLPanel widget and a single panel content file.
This issue is only occuring in IE7 (my company's default browser.) and I suspect it's some kind of network/server issue at the root of the problem, but I can't prove that... yet.
The issue is pretty simple. I have a swf that contains an embedded sound (issue seems immune to Stream or Event sound types) which is contained in the content fragment to be loaded into the HTMLPanel. The swf should just auto-play once the fragment is loaded in the panel.
When loading the above referenced fragment of the panel content file (which I'll refer to as a "page") into the HTMLPanel, there are TWO ?instances? of the sound that play... resulting in an echo.
Observations/Facts
Using Spry v1.6.1
IE7 specific. No issue in Firefox or Chrome (unfortunatly, those are non-standard browsers in my world.)
Have tried using both swfObject and a bare-bones object/embed tag on the content page with the same result.
When viewing the same swf in an html page (the aboved referenced panel content file) in a single browser window (not the HTMLPanel), there is no echo.
Co-workers in another remote location (where the server is co-located) do not experience this issue -or- there really are two sound instances but they are perfectly sync'd, thus no (perceptible) echo.
Moving the mouse around the screen and triggering some other event (like a rollover) shuts off one of the sound instances, leaving one playing.
Clearing the IE7 browser cache *sometimes* eliminates the problem... until returning to the "page". So, it'll play once correctly.
The two instances of the audio track are staggered (thus the echo). By a second or two... consistantly.
Have confirmed only one instance of the swf is being instantiated.
Unable to "find" a second instance of the sound object when using remote Flash debugger.
Moving the sound away from frame 1 to any other frame does not eliminate the issue.
Forcing the swf to stop (not letting it play on it's own... require user to press a play button) eliminates the issue.
I've tried debugging with Firebug-lite but can't find anything that would give me a clue. I'm stumped. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I'll be happy to provide any additional info I can.
Thanks in advance.

Hey there,
Apologies for the delayed reply. I opted to NOT look at the computer this weekend.
Let's see...
Observers: I do happen to have an onPostUpdate observer assigned to the panel object that does some other page validation type stuff each time a new page is loaded into the panel. But, are you referring to adding the observer to the panel object or somewhere in the fragement that get's loaded into the page?
I do have evalScripts set to true... which brings up sorta a good question.
Assume for a moment that I use swfObject to embed my swf into the fragment and that the swfObject script executes as it should. Wouldn't that essentially be doing the same thing as an observer?
For example...
Load new content fragment into the HTMLPanel object
evalScripts (true) allows swfObject to execute
Object tag written
swf plays
What am I missing? Perhaps I have my DOM events out of order.
You get as many guesses as you'd like!
