Audio lags in iOS

Hi, I've been making an animation with click-triggered sounds (to get around autoplay), but once I view it in iOS, the audio lags by a couple of seconds. It seems to be loading, because when I click it a second time, the audio is timed fine. But I have a preloader and I checked the "preload audio" box as well - so why isn't the audio loaded before the whole animation is displayed?
(if this helps - I'm using MP3s as well as OGG)
It works perfectly fine on a desktop browser.
Another issue is that Chrome in iOS isn't playing sounds at all - not sure why.
Thanks.

Hi there,
Sorry, but iOS (or more accurately, MobileSafari) doesn't support audio preloading (nor do browsers on most Android devices). This is a design choice on Apple's and other mobile device manufacturers part. See here for more info:

(refer specifically to the section User Control of Downloads Over Cellular Networks)
Not sure what may be happening with Chrome for you - it seems to work okay for me.
hth,
Joe

  • I want to be able to use airplay to stream audio to another iOS device, and then use that audio stream to be used when recording video instead of the built in microphone / microphone input. Is this possible?

    I want to be able to use airplay to stream audio to another iOS device, and then use that audio stream to be used when recording video instead of the built in microphone / microphone input. Is this possible?

    A third-party app probably cannot obtain a stream from another app. To the best of my knowledge, such a capability is not provided in the software development kit, apps being "sandboxed" from each other and so allowed to communicate only in very specific and limited ways.
    I'm not completely sure what you mean by "limitations on video capture". An iPhone, to the best of my knowledge, can natively record video only through it's built-in camera, and audio while doing video recording only through the built-in microphone or mic/headphone jack. There might be a video recording app that would allow audio input from an external device connected to the dock connector, but I'm not sure.

  • HT1399 I was able to see the lyrics while playing the audio when my iOS was 6.1.4 now i do not know what to do to see the lyrics while playing the audio or a karaoke

    I was able to see the lyrics while playing the audio when my iOS was 6.1.4
    now i do not know what to do to see the lyrics while playing the audio or a karaoke after upgraded(?) to iOS 7
    Is there any chance to see the lyrics in iOS 7 or i want to degrade it to 6.1.4?

    Thank you for responding. I'm not sure if my complete original message came through. It was just today that an automatic update notice came through, and I installed the update that was offered. So I have to guess that version — 10.1.10 — is the latest version that's available to me. My OS is 10.6.8. Again (in case the complete message isn't appearing), I'm on an older Mac, specifically MacBook 2.1. Perhaps this is the problem, and I never should have updated a few years ago. If so, I wonder if there's any way I can go back to that earlier version that worked well for me, rather than the last few versions, which have not.

  • When I transfer movies to my USB the audio lags.

    When I transfer movies to my USB to watch on my TV, the audio lags. It's perfectly fine when I watch the file on my computer.

    USB, in all it's flavors, is simply too slow to play a video from. Your hard drive is much faster and therefore you have no problems.
    So, when you can, copy the video to your hard drive and leave your USB thumb drive at home.

  • SO F-G ANNOYED!!!! Playback is all screwed up. Audio lags as well as stuttering.

    Ever since the upgrade, none of my videos will playback correctly.  The audio lags behind by 8 - 10 seconds and there's this constant clicking noise in the background.  Apple FIX THIS!!!!!!!!!!!

    How do you turn off session store? browser.sessionstore.enabled is not an option in my config. I dont care to have it on. I would rather my videos played correctly than worry about restoring a browsing session from some random incident. I would rather FF create a stable platform where you dont have to jerry rig it in order to even use it.

    FWIW, I have the same exact problem on a Mac Pro running WinXP SP2 under Bootcamp.
    Interestingly, the line out feature works while running WinXP under VMWare Fusion! Evidently, the VMWare sound drivers solve the problem.
    I've tried reloading the Realtek drivers, changing every sound setting under XP that I can think of with no luck.

  • Audio lagging around Slide #20

    Hi everyone,
    I'm recording mini-lessons in Cap 5 with relatively small (30-60) slides in each project. I've noticed that around the 20th or so slide, the audio lags behind by about half a second. The band-aid solution I came up with is to extend a slide without extending the audio. It's quite noticeable but it corrects the problem. I'm deferring to your collective wisdom, Captivate Gurus: is there a better, less obvious solution? And I'm not counting adding a pop-up for the user about halfway into the lesson that directs them to click the PAUSE button on the playback bar.
    I've got the preloader set to 100% and the auto-play option is off as well. The projects consist of introductory and explanitory slides that have captions, JPEG images, and audio, and screen capture slides in demo mode with audio. No Flash and at the most one or two slides with FMR, lasting about a second or two at the most.
    Thanks!
    Krista

    Hi Krista
    I'm not sure if this still holds true in Captivate 5 as it's a totally new animal than 4 was. But in 4 I saw reports of folks correcting this by staging the audio to begin playing slightly into the slide. For example, have the audio begin playing perhaps .3 seconds (three tenths of a second) after the slide begins.
    I'm not guaranteeing this will work. Only offering it as something you might try and see.
    Cheers... Rick

  • I have audio on my iOS imovie app that I want to delete. How can I do this. I tried recording over it but it still is heard.

    I have audio on my iOS imovie app that I want to delete. How can I do this. I tried recording over it but it still is heard.

    I think Apple User is mistaken and wandered into the wrong forum, do ignore that advise.
    I am unclear as to where the audio is?
    If you want to silence the audio on a clip in the timeline,
    double tap the clip,
    In the audio clip settings turn the sound off.
    If it is a sound recording, sound effect, or music then you can double tap, and choose delete.
    Have a look at this help guide, specifically the part under create a project, add and adjust audio

  • Premiere Pro CS3 DVD Compression Audio lag

    I have a project which content several camera angles.
    I synch them, then puts them in my timeline with other elements such as Lowerthirds, logos, and other sub captions.
    Funny enough there is a lag when the whole project is compressed for DVD burning.
    Video 1 has the live feed audio file and Video 2 is simply synched with video 1.
    Ounce the compression is done, Video 2 is synched with audio but not Video 1. Video1 is late.
    I do not understand why since, Video 1 has the original audio file for the entire project.
    However when the project is compessed for windows media player the issue disappears.
    Can anyone help me with this?
    Dan
    PS: CS3

    Usually Premiere pro should send the compressed media directly to encore and burn it. But nop it doesn't work that way It bugg all the time doing that.
    So I Export it via the Adobe Media Encoder then choose MPEG2-DVD
    Range: Entire Sequence
    Preset: NTSC Medium Quality
    NTSC, 720x480, 29.97 drop frame (fps), lower, Quality 3.0
    48 kHz, 16 bit, PCM
    VBR, 1 Pass, min 1.50, Target 4.00, Max 7.00 (mbps)
    The project is 28min 40 long and gives me a compressed file of about 2 GB.
    Right there before I even burn to DVD with Encore (by importing the 2GB file as timeline),
    There is an audio lag.
    Then I shut Premiere pro, launch Encore, import the 2GB file as timeline hit the built key, disregard the error message and THe DVD id burned.
    I don't think Encore is the problem, I think It comes from Premiere Pro. How can the Video contact the only audio file not be in synch with itself???
    I am so confused...
    THanks for your help!
    Dan
    PS: Do you know any good tutorial about compression tips so I can get better result

  • Quicktime Re: Audio Lagging When Watching Videos

  • M500 audio lags

    Hello, I have crucial m500 and I did clean install of windows 8. After this I installed my old hdd, formatted it and stored all media on it. The problem is that when I listen to music, which is stored in that hdd or watch videos from it, I have a clear audio lag and not so clear video delays every one in 20-60min intervals. Before I used this ssd, my windows were installed on this hdd and everything was just fine. I know its not a virus, because I did a clean install. I think it is related to ssd, but I don't know how to solve this. Another problem I have is that when I update to windows 8.1 my computer cant shut down, restart. Everything turns off, but the laptop still works( I mean the fan), so I have to use the hard button to shut it down. Also the option for sleep disappears, so there is only shut down and restart options(hibernate dosn't work too). If anyone knows how to fix any of these issues, please help and thanks in advance.  My laptop specs: Acer v3-771gIntel core i5-3210m8GB ramx64 windows 8nVidia gt630mcrucial m500 250gb500gb WD scorpio blue 

    I've not seen this problem before. But almost all weird and wonderful Windows misbehaving issues on this drive appear to be caused by using out-dated sata drivers - usually supplied by your computers manufacturer.  So I'd update them first and see if that helps: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/SearchResult.aspx?lang=eng&keyword=%22Intel+Rapid+Storage+Technology+(Intel+RST)%22

  • ITunes audio lag

    I recently bought a new computer (less than a month and a half ago), running Windows 8, and installed the latest version of iTunes and Quicktime (iTunes 11.1 and Quicktime 7.7).  My computer is hooked up to a small HD TV monitor using an HDMI cable.  I bought an HD movie throught the iTunes store yesterday, and played it through iTunes.  However, the audio and video will quickly become out of sync, usually within about 15 seconds.  I have updated my NVIDIA disply driver and also my audio driver (IDT audio driver), to no avail.  I have also made sure that my computer audio playback is set at 16 bit/44.100 hz, and that iTunes audio playback is also set at 16 bit/44.100 hz.  No of this has helped.  I will play the video, and within 10-15 seconds the audio is lagging horribly behind the video.
    I have also tried to play the movie in Quicktime by clicking on the movie in iTunes, showing the movie in windows explorer, and then clicking open with Quicktime.  However, when Quicktime opens, it just sits on a grey screen.  I click play, and the timer for the movie starts, but the screen just stays grey the whole time.  My Quicktime audio playback is also set at 16 bit/44.100 hz, for what its worth. 
    I have literally spent an entire day trying to look up a solution for this problem, and have found absolutely nothing that has helped.  If ANYONE has an idea of what I can do to alleviate this problem, please let me know.  I am at a total loss to figure this out.  I am somewhat familiar with computers, enough to run through some basic fixes, but I am by no means a computer whiz.  I have also contacted Apple about this problem, and got back the typical response of "update my drivers etc etc etc."  It seems like nothing on the Apple website has instructions for possible remedies to this for Windows 8, so as I said I am at a total loss.  ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED!!!!

    demand a refund, I had this same problem 6 months ago...gave them another shot recently and apple still hasn't fixed the problem

  • Audio lag in video while on Terminal Server
