Audio is fine, but video won't play right!

I have just recently purchased a video that's about 22 minutes long. It plays fine for the first 10 seconds or so, but then video becomes choppy and, if I put up with it long enough, eventually freezes. The audio is fine, however. I have just downloaded the latest version of QuickTime, so having an old version is not the problem.
It's bugging me that the video won't play correctly. Is there any way to fix this?
Thanks.

I really need this video to play right by Monday...

  • My Quicktime 7 won't work. I have purchased a key code and followed instructions but videos won't play

    Hello - can anyone help please? I have upgraded my software to Quicktime 7 and purchased a registration code. When I enter it, there is no box to click enter and when I press the tab key, nothing happens? I spent £20 on the code and my videos still won't play? Can anyone help please?

    It may sound silly, but i had an issue with my Quicktime Pro key (Quicktime 7) where the key was not accepted due to my not using capital letters on my first and last name. My iMac auto capitalized when I entered the info when i purchased the Pro key.  Once I used the Capitals on my registration,  my old key worked fine.  Hope this helps.

  • MOVs play fine, but Premiere won't play the audio

    I have a bunch of MOV files (from a cheap digital camera) that will play fine on say VLC, and they import into Premiere CS5, but when I play them in Premiere, or put them into a Sequence, the video plays but the sound turns to a high pitched beep after 1 second. Every file does this, and all other files (including MOVs from different cameras) are working fine in the same sequence. Any ideas?

    I had a similar problem, I'll tell you how I solved it.  Understand that I am a newbie at video editing and Premiere Pro.  I shot videos on a DSLR (.mov) and then transferred them to my computer.  I then imported them into Premiere CS6.  The videos played fine, and the sound bars indicated that audio was playing, but there was no sound.  The clips I imported played fine in Windows Media Player.  I did everything suggested on the forums, but to no avail.  Then I thought of something no one else had suggested, and it worked!
    I ordered my Rain Stratus computer already set up with Premiere CS6 installed.  When I opened a new project, it by default chose Black Magic Design presets, since that is the video card I have.  Being a newbie, I just went with that.  But since the video I was importing was not captured by my Black Magic video card, it was the wrong choice.  It took awhile to figure out, but I finally realized I needed to choose Digital SLR as the sequence preset when I created a new project.  Then the audio worked!
    One more thing I had to do, though, before it worked: in PremierePro, go to Edit/Preferences/Audio Hardware.  I had to change the hardware from Black Magic Audio to Premiere Pro WDM Sound, click ASIO settings, choose my speakers, and then check the box marked "device 32-bit playback" (even thought I have a 64-bit computer.)
    I hope that helps someone else from going through the same frustration.

  • Podcasts and tv shows videos stop and start when playing.  The Audio flows fine, but video freezes for a moment and continues.  Do you know what I can do to fix?

    When watching a podcast or tv program on itunes the video freezes and starts.  The audio still flows just fine.  Do you know what the solution might be?

    set the wake-on lan on the main computer
    The laptop's too far away from the router to be connected by ethernet. It's all wifi.
    No separate server app on the laptop, it's all samba
    The files are on a windows laptop and a hard drive hooked up to the windows laptop. The windows share server is pants, so I'd need some sort of third party server running. Maybe you weren't suggesting to use Samba to connect to the windows share though?
    I'm glad that you've all understood my ramblings and taken and interest, thanks The way I see it, I can't be the only netbook user these days looking for this kind of convenience, and I certainly won't be once chrome and moblin hit the market.

  • Video Ipod 30 GB, I can hear the audio but video won't play

    Hi,
    I got the 30 GB Ipod around a year ago but never really used it (don't ask why). Anyway two days ago I decided to upload my songs and videos onto it. The videos I've got play on my computer on quicktime (they're mp4), but when they're uploaded onto my ipod I can only hear the audio, but I can't see the video. I'm hoping someone can help!
    Thanks

    Hi, I have the opposite going on with my Ipod. I hardly use the video function for my ipod, I had 1 video on there that took forever to get right, so I gave up. But now I have 2 more and I can't hear the audio but can see the video. The video that I had originally I can hear, but don't remember what I did to hear it, Can you help me?

  • Audio is fine but video plays back twice as fast???!!!!

    Any ideas on why my footage imports at double speed but the audio is at normal speed? I shot it with a canon HV40 at 24P in cinemode.

    Like I say, there are two 24 modes on that camera. Is your sequence set up for 24fps or 29.97? Whichever one it is, try the other and see if it makes a difference.
    What were your capture settings? You need to clarify that you've captured correctly (I'm not sure whether it's possible to capture 24fps material incorrectly as I've never tried).
    The basic thing you need to do is determine whether you shot native 24 or 24 converted in camera to 30, and work forward from there.
    You might find more experts on your camera and its settings over at [www.dvinfo.net]

  • Audio is fine but video is completely white????

    Does anyone know anything/experienced anything similar to this?
    Occasionally I'll go to play a video podcast that I have subscribed to and it'll play the audio but the video is white. It does happen to play in the sidebar window if I choose to have it that way but when I click on it to bring it into it's own window, it turns completely white. Any ideas? I've restarted my computer/restarted iTunes and sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Not really sure what's causing it or a true fix. Please help if possible.
    See image to see what I am talking about.

    Thanks all...

    Interesting. I'll give it a shot. Could this also be the cause of a similar problem I am having with iDVD? I built a really basic dvd with one video on it and added one music track on the main menu. Everything looks great but when I create a disc image / burn a disc, the main menu ends up displaying completely black. Like the previous problem, the audio plays fine and so does the video if I just hit play, but again, the main menu is completely black. I've tried different themes as well and it seems to do the same thing.
    Could this be related?

  • Ipad videos won't play right on my Windows 7 desktop

    I'm copying home videos from Ipad to Windows 7 Home Premium desktop to store and free up space on Ipad. The Videos play perfectly when I view them on Ipad. They don't play correctly on desktop, they freeze and jump frames, don't play continuously. I've tried copy and import, and even one at time. It's not memory issue, have 8 G.  When I copy to my Windows 7 Home Premium laptop, they play perfectly also.  What could be causing the problem with desktop?

    Try downloading and using quicktime.
    It could be something as easy as the graphics card or the desktop not having the right plugins to play the iPad files smoothly. Quicktime is the best program to play mov files, that's what it's made for.
    It's a free program so you're not out anything but time

  • Videos won't play after upgrading to ios7.1

    Everything worked fine under ios7.0.4 and previous ios versions but videos won't play on YouTube or Facebook since upgrading to ios7.1. This is true for my ipad 4 and my wife's iPad mini. I have tried resets and reboots but did not help. May try to reinstall 7.0.4 unless someone has other ideas. All help appreciated.

    You won't be able to install 7.0.4.
    I have no problems playing YouTube videos on my iPad 4 or iPhone 5 using iOS 7.1.

  • Audio on video files sounds fine but actual video won't play

    Just bought a new laptop last week w/ windows vista on it, downloaded itunes and purchased a legitimate (i.e. direct from NBC) tv show - the audio sounds fine, but the video locks up on the first frame when I go to play it. I can fast forward to any spot in the show, but the video keeps freezing wherever I choose to play it. have tried numerous solutions found on the website, gone to my local apple store and emailed apple support and nothing has solved the problem yet....I even upgraded the computer's memory a few days ago thinking that might be the issue and it wasn't. anybody have any advice?
    thank you!!!

    Doublechecking a few things before proceeding.
    In your troubleshooting efforts so far, have you worked through the suggestions from the following document?

  • Video won't play but can hear audio

    I just purchased some videos for my iPod touch (I believe 2nd generation) and the videos won't play but you can hear the audio.  All I get is a blank screen.  Why is this happening??!!  What can I do??!!

    - Does the video play OK on your computer.  If yes go to the next item.  If not report the problem to iTunes and they will give you a redownload.  Tp contact iTunes:
    How to report an issue with Your iTunes Store purchase
    - I would try transferring the video to itunes on you computer and then deleting it from your iPod.  The go to Advance tab in iTunes and select the Create iPod and iPhone Version and then sync to your iPod.

  • Have reset Firefox & completed all of steps in "Flash video won't play full screen on YouTube, Facebook and other websites", but video still won't work. Help!

    I have reset Firefox, completed all the steps in "flash video won't play full screen on YouTube, Facebook and other websites". And the video still won't play in full screen. It will play, but frequently stops or sound continues and picture freezes. I have noticed that if I continually move my mouse, it plays fine. All these videos play fine in IE and Chrome.

    Some problems with Flash video playback can be resolved by disabling hardware acceleration in your Flash Player settings. (See [[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems|this article]] for more information on using the Flash plugin in Firefox).
    To disable hardware acceleration in Flash Player:
    #Go to this [http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues Adobe Flash Player Help page].
    #Right-click on the Flash Player logo on that page.
    #Click on '''Settings''' in the context menu. The Adobe Flash Player Settings screen will open.
    # Click on the icon at the bottom-left of the Adobe Flash Player Settings window to open the Display panel. <br/> <br/>[[Image:fpSettings1.PNG]] <br/>
    # Remove the check mark from '''Enable hardware acceleration'''.
    # Click '''Close''' to close the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window.
    # Restart Firefox.
    This [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html Flash Player Help - Display Settings page] has more information on Flash Player hardware acceleration, if you're interested.
    Does this solve the problem? Let us know.

  • I have an iPod nano 6th generation and I downloaded 3 music videos but they won't play on my iPod. They only play on my laptop/iTunes. How can I get it to work?

    I have an iPod nano 6th generation and I downloaded 3 music videos but they won't play on my iPod. They only play on my laptop/iTunes. How can I get it to work? I know that my iPod should take music videos because there is a pre-made playlist called "Music videos". Can anyone help me please????

    You can sync the music videos, but they won't play on your 6G Nano, because it does not support video playback. Sorry.

  • MailOnline videos won't play in Firefox unless in safe mode although they're fine in Explorer.

    It's for my mum, honest. Firefox 25, java and flash uptodate but the Mail Online videos won't play unless I start Firefox in safemode. A large white rectangle appears but nothing else.

    You can try these steps in case of issues with web pages:
    Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
    *Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
    *Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
    *Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)
    Clear the cache and cookies only from websites that cause problems.
    "Clear the Cache":
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
    "Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.
    If it works in Safe Mode and in normal mode with all extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) disabled then try to find which extension is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.
    Close and restart Firefox after each change via "Firefox > Exit" (Windows: Firefox/File > Exit; Mac: Firefox > Quit Firefox; Linux: Firefox/File > Quit)
