Audio garbles after playing Video

I got a new 30G iPod and downloaded all my iTunes, Audible and mp3 files. I then purchased from iTunes a video. All the audio (mp3, itunes, audible) play fine until I play the video. After I play a few seconds of video and return to playing audible files they garble. It appears going back and playing mp3 or iTunes audio "resets" so I can then play audible files (until I play video).

This is a known defect of the 5th generation ipod. Hopefully they will fix it in a software update.

Audio stops after playing video

...couldn't get an answer from earlier posts so here goes:
in iDVD 6.0.2 after burning & playing the video chapter part,
audio stops. it doesn't happens immediately but after 5-6 min. of playing.
i chcked for a missing audio codec of some kind:
the video chapter is AVI format, but the audio is not compressed. also the file plays normally in QT so
my only guess was a probably malfunctional during encoding\decoding audio in idvd itself...
does the solution for it depends on the proper audio
codecs idvd is using to convert my movie or is it something else i missed?

Where did the AVI come from? That may cause issues...

[SOLVED] ATI HDMI audio fails when playing videos... fine otherwise.

On a fresh install of Arch Linux, despite being an amateur at best. I'm using ATI HDMI audio using the open source driver, on GNOME 3. I'm switching to Catalyst after posting this to see if that might help, somehow.
After adding the radeon.audio=1 to the bootloader, audio on the system began working just fine as long as I restricted myself to audacious (haven't tried another audio player) or the system sound tests. When I try to use VLC, or mplayer2 for that matter, not only does it not play the audio associated with the video but NO audio will pass through the system at all. I have tried changing the audio source in VLC, although default should work... nothing works. Changing the audio in VLC will cause the system's audio to max out. Changing it back to something else doesn't help, but I can change the volume after closing the video programs, and after a few clicks it will go back to the "bloop" sound that confirms volume changes. Everything works fine again.
I have been at this all day and I am at wit's end. My google searches are getting way too long to be of any help. Any pointers or obvious things that I've missed in my caffeine haze would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
...SOLVED by switching to Catalyst drivers from open source.

Audio problems while playing videos from superdrive

Hi, i've got a macbook pro with leopard and a bootcamp partition with windows xp.
When i play videos (divx or dvds) from my superdrive under windows, i have audio problems (like noise), but the same videos are fine in leopard or if i play them from another storage, for example from usb.
Perhaps it's a problem with last bootcamp drivers..or maybe there is something wrong with my superdrive. i remember this wasnt an issue when i bought my mac (less then a year ago).
Thanks in advance for the help.

I'm having the same problem.
I had a video file that I had to convert for my iPod & iPhone, after doing so, only a white video screen and just the audio.
What the heck is going on? it seems like a few people are having this problem!

Why do I only get the audio when I play video files?

I only receive the audio portions when I play video files. The video is blank/black. This is happening with mpg., avchd and the videos posted to websites; YouTube, Facebook etc. The only video files I can play are windows media files. Windows media PLAYER won't play the other video files? I have the latest updates for my video card and adobe flash player. Thanks for any info!

It is most likely that the various files contain CODEC's, that are either not installed on your computer, or PrE is not able to use them.
You list several file types, and I would urge you to first see this FAQ Entry, then get one of the file info utilities, linked in it, G-Spot, MediaInfo, or MediaInspector, then post the details on the various CODEC's: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/440037?tstart=0
Also, that WMP cannot play the video indicates the likelihood of a CODEC issue.
Try either of the great, free media players, VLC Player, or MediaPlayer Classic HC. Both contain many useful CODEC's, but they do NOT install them into the OS.
Good luck, and with the CODEC info, someone can give your recommendations.

How to install Sony audio player to play video on Sony tv over thunderbolt connection?

When I play movies via thunderbolt connection to my Sony tv the audio won't play over the tv speakers.

Hi,
I've posted many times about this: we can buy a $70 BD player with HDMI, it works first time, all the times but most of the times HDMI won't work on a $1,000 machine called computer. MS, video card vendors and computer vendors need to sit down and discuss this seriously.
In this case, updating video card driver may help and somtimes keep trying and trying.
Regards.

Freezes after playing video playlist

My 60G freezes after playing my video playlist. I have to wait until the battery runs down then plug it in to reboot it for it to work again. I took it back to Best Buy where I purchased it, and they installed the latest update. They claimed this would fix the problem. Wrong! Any suggestions?
Thanks!

There is no screen event triggered when the video finishes playing that you can use to jump to the next slide or unhide a button to enable the user to navigate forward at a time of their own choosing.
If you know the duration of the video, you can place a navigation button on the timeline at that point so that it appears just after the video finishes playing. However, you may find that on different PCs with different system specs the video may take slightly more or less time to play.

Audio Dropout when playing video

Hi,
I have been experiencing audio dropout when playing Youtube or any kind of video. I am currently using an audio interface (Focusrite Scarlett 18i6) connecting to my speakers. This has been going on for some time.
OSX 10.10.2
iMac (27-inch, Late 2013)
Processor 3.5 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory 32 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Graphics NVIDIA GeForce GTX 775M 2048 MB
Storage 500GB Flash Drive
Please help!!
Thanks and Regards

If you have menu's etc then the problem isn't one of video mode settings or indeed
connection/cabling.
Agreed.
Are the problems consistent (ie always the same files, or does a file sometimes play and not other
times)
Yes, also the intro screen doesn't appear at startup. (audio does). NitoTV (which uses mPlayer) works fine. Perhaps QuickTime is corrupt on it?
Have you played these files on the tv before.
Yes.
Do they play in itunes.
Yes, they play fine in iTunes - audio and video.
Thanks,
James.

Blacks out after playing video

My ipod blacked out after playing a video I downloaded from Itunes music store. Not responding, does anyone know how to solve this?

Pinwheel when trying to close safari/firefox after playing video

i've only noticed this on the nytimes.com website after playing their video content (youtube works fine). in both firefox and safari: every single time i play a video, if i pause it or stop it and then try to close the tab it is in or the application, i get the pinwheel and no matter how long i wait for it, it does not come back so i force quit. i've tried updating/reinstalling, but nothing seems to work. also episodes/shows via abc.com do not play at all - tried reinstalling/updating those plugins/apps as well. this is happening on both macbook pro and macbook with updated versions of leopard... thoughts?

This seemed to come out of the blue, very much as described by anima42. I also am a Ubuntu 10.04 user. I have pondered on the first reply above, and though I don't, and didn't, use Tabberwocky, I was using Tab Mix Plus. Having removed this, the problem seems to have gone away. Another possible clue as to what went wrong: I use a constant Firefox profile located in my home directory. I dabbled with Ubuntu 11.04 a week or so ago, which runs (I think) a more updated Firefox. This Firefox was operating on my default profile, as you would. It may have broken something so it now doesn't play nicely with the 10.04 setup. Just surmising.

Application crash after playing video or audio

This is actually a problem I have which is broader than Safari, but it is evident in Safari.
The symptom is that if I watch a video or an audio report (typically from the BBC news website at news.bbc.co.uk), then the application will crash when the playing stops - whether I let it go to the end, or interrupt it in the middle. This happens in Safari 2.0.4 or the beta 3 relase. It also happens in Firefox and Camino. It happens in a different user on the same Mac as well, so it is not the user preferences.
I have another Mac on the network, behind the same router, and I don't get the problem on this Mac.
The video and audio is playing in RealOne player on both Macs, and both are on system 10.4.10.

You're welcome. Glad to help.

ITunes audio problem while playing video.

I have purchased several TV episodes which play just fine in iTunes on my HP Windows 7 laptop. However, on my Dell Windows XP desktop, the same videos lose the audio after a few seconds in iTunes, but the same videos play just fine in Quicktime on the Dell. Can anyone shed some light on this problem? Why would a video work in Quicktime but not iTunes using the same computer?

SATA Hard Drive Goes Missing After Playing Video In iTunes, How? Why?

What in iTunes would make my 500 GB SATA drive just "disappear" from my list of drives under My Computer?
Seemed to happen after I tried playing a video back in iTunes. I thought it was Windows Vista. But, I'm not having any other problems. I don't dare plug in my ipod until I fix this. I just downloaded the lastest version of itunes since it said for Vista, but that doesn't seem to matter.
I have all the latest drivers, but I have a GeForce 8800 video card, that's not the issue is it? What else can I do here to get itunes back on track?

My guess is that you have an Nvidia Nforce SATA controller, and are affected by a known bug in the Nvidia driver. Apple mention it briefly at the bottom of this document. HP have posted what appears to be a standard Microsoft SATA driver here to work around the problem until Nvidia releases an updated driver. Since it appears to be a standard driver, you may be able to install it on a non-HP system too.

Issues with screensaver after playing video in iTunes

I've recently started having an issue with my screensaver not turining itself on if i pause videos played in iTunes (fullscreen), and after escaping fullscreen view and pausing video the screensaver won't turn itself on. At all, not until I restart my iMac.
The iMac is completely up to date (OS X 10.7.2), bought mid-2011, came with Lion. I just got the iMac back from repair service, it should be working fine. Why is this happening?
