Audio plays, but no video on all projects & events

I am running iMovie '09 & I have imported video from my DV camcorder. in the event library, I see the frame thumbnails, but if I move the mouse over them, they turn black & when I mouse off it, the picture comes back. If I hit play on an event or a project, all I get is a black screen, but the audio is perfect. It's almost as if iMovie left the lens cap on!
What could be causing this? I can provide screen caps if that would be helpful at all.

HELP!!!!
I have a similar problem. I'd finished a project, used the transition editor to get rid of an "um" and now the entire video part won't play -- audio only.
If I could revert to the original version, I could live with the stupid UM, but I can't even figure out how to get to there.
PLEASE HELP!!!! I DON'T WANT TO HAVE TO EDIT FOUR HOURS WORTH OF WORK ALL OVER AGAIN FOR A STUPID FREAKING UM!!!!!

Quicktime Movies - The audio plays but the video is completely messed up

Hi.
I have QuickTime V7.2 and my OS is XP.
All of a sudden QuickTime started playing back QuickTime movies with no video - there is just a lot of flickering green and purple - however the audio is there. Oddly, the files used to play fine. They were made on my PC as QuickTime movie files. The sound is there. (Additionally the files play ok in Realplayer.)
I've searched techy support but can't find an answer. Any ideas what is wrong?
I made the files on movie editing software called ULead, and as I said, they used to play fine.
Thanks very much.
Gary

A very similar and, I suspect, related problem. I created .mov files on my Mac, they play fine on the Mac, the audio plays but flickering video on my PC. I suspect it has something to do with the codecs used. Anyone have an idea as to how to make them compatible?

Audio plays but not video on abc app?

audio plays but not video on abc app?

Correct. The developers have not enabled it for airplay. Audio is on by default.

Audio plays but the video does not

I'm using the latest FCP and I've imported .Mov files which I've run through compressor so they all have H.264 at the end, however when I play them, the video stays still; only when I pause it does it jump ahead. The audio runs fine.
Am I supposed to run this through Compressor again (ie. I did it wrong)? Or is it just a settings thing?

I have a Flip and that takes video in .MP4; when I brought that into FCP it had a similar scenario play out so I assumed that I was supposed to have it as .MOV so I went to compressor to do that. I don't use Compressor often (read: ever) and I selected the one thing that said quicktime which also said H.264.
Sorry, Tom, I really don't know the ins and outs of this stuff.

Audio plays, but no video

I watch a live service online and it was working just fine. Then I went to watch it and I could hear the audio, but not see the video. It just shows a black screen, yet I can hear it. I updated flash player and I can see the flash video thing on the website and it says flash player installed. The live video is using Flowplayer and I have Mac OSX. I downloaded the correct flash player for Mac OSX too.

Yes, disabling hardware accelaration I have no problem with flash player.

I have some music videos on my i-pad. when I play one, the music plays but the video does not. I go under "music video" play list select and play, i get music but no video. Can someone be so kind as to help me. this problem just started today.

Thanks Johnathan for trying to assist. I purchased these music videos from i-tunes, in the past I just had to go into "Music" on the I-pad and select "music videos" then the one I wanted to play and it would just start playing with video. I don't see any "VIDEO" app. These music videos was downloaded from i-tunes and shold play through the i-pad music app. Any further suggestion?

HT1539 Copied Skyfall from the digital copy - plays but no video, no audio

I'm running W7 and iTunes 11.0.1.12. iTunes says it downloaded the file at 2.3GB and it plays but I get a blank screen and no audio. All other movie files play just fine.

Hi Shippster,
Ok. in stages so that we can see where they might be adrift.
They should Add Buddies by using the + sign at the bottom of the Buddy List.
The choose Add Person
In the pop out Choose New Person
AND Then they need to choose the Account type first.
(It is possible to Add AIM name as @mac ones and vice versa. AIM servers where the Buddy list is held can not tell if it is a valid name or not. It will presume the Buddy is Off line if type and spelling are wrong)
Also in iChat > Preferences > Accounts
In here they should select their screen name on the left (Click once)
On the right they should select the Security tab.
This should be set to Allow All whilst testing (later when names are spelt right or the right type they can Allow Buddies only)
Some more info with pics http://www.ralphjohnsuk.dsl.pipex.com/page6.html
So, so far we have the fact they should check the View Menu to Show Video and Audio Status items to see other peoples camera a Audio icons.
They need to change their camera if they are the end with the Canon.
They need to check their Buddy list to make sure they added their Buddies as the right account type and spelt those Buddies Screen Names correctly.

Select FLV's audio is playing but not video in IE

-- Using Flash 8 Video Encoder (with ON2's codec) to generate
the flvs. They play fine in Firefox. But the video does nopt
display (though the audio does play) in IE 6 and 7 on windows xp
sp2.
-- someone else who used Sorensen's video encoder (which i
assume uses the previous Sorensen Spark codec) - these flvs display
fine on IE 6 and 7.
I seem to be running the latest Flash plugins on both
machines i testing on - though I am not sure the best way to test
this. It does seem like a video codec issue...

On your iPod, go to the main menu, Videos, Video Settings, then turn the TV Out option to OFF.

Audio plays but video does not........HDV

I have quicktime clips on my Macbook that are HDV 1080i format. When I try and play them in quicktime just the audio plays.....no video. Now I also have an iMac G5 desktop and quicktime plays these clips without problem. When I try to play them from my macbook a box pops up and says some components may be missing and it directs me to this web page:
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/resources/components.html
From here I don't know what to download in order to make it play my HDV clips.
please help. Thank you very much
iMacG5/MacBook Mac OS X (10.4.6)

AIC is required to view High Definition video on the Mac OS and it should already be installed on your machine.
Open the file using QuickTime Player. Open the Movie Info window (Command-i) and report back what it shows for the video codec.
You can test HD playback of known "good" files by viewing any of the HD trailers from this link: http://www.apple.com/trailers/
If they work as they should then the problem is with your HD file and not your computer.

Theme music plays, but no video

I just watched a tutorial on iDVD, and wanted to get started, but I open the program, and a new project is ready for me, but when I click on the theme, the video won't show up. When I hit the moton button, the music plays, but no picture. I clicked on the info button and the theme shows up there, but I can't see anything. Any words of wisdom?? Thanks!

+working fine...weird.+
Why is that weird? That's why Apple has updates.

Re:. Flash applications freeze periodically with sound but no video on all browsers.

I've been having problems with flash applications on browsers for the past year or two. What happens is that when a flash video starts, my browser will lag periodically. The sound will be present, but the video will freeze, and I will not be able to switch tabs, click on buttons etc. This was most noticable on YouTube at first, but it's also occuring with other sites, and it's very annoying when a site has flash ads and it causes my entire browsing experience to slow to a crawl. This isn't just a firefox problem, I've tried IE and google chrome as well, and I have also tried different Internet connections. I've tried various suggestions to fix it, such as turning off hardware acceleration, uninstalling then reinstalling flash and shockwave, reinstalling my video codecs, but they all have no effect. Can anyone help me with this problem, its driving me nuts! My browsers are all updated to the latest version, my flash player is version 11.7.700.169, and I am using Windows 7 pro (6.1, build 7601).

Do you notice any difference if you disable hardware acceleration?
How do I disable or enable hardware acceleration?
What happens if you temporarily revert back to Flash Player 10.3?
How do I revert to a previous version of Flash Player?

TA44469 i have a video that plays on my iphone, but when downloaded to windows, only the audio plays and the video is black. help,

i have an iphone 4s. I can take a video and play it on the 4s just fine, i have always been able to down'load to my pc and view videos with no trouble. But since mid-october 2012, when i download the video to my pc, and try to play it, same as always, I am getting only audio and the video part is black. I can hear everything happening, but no picture. any thoughts?

Try updating to QuickTime 7.7.3. (That has helped a few people who were getting that when trying to play the videos with version 7.7.2.)
