Black screen on videos but audio is fine

I know a million posts have been made on this but i cant seem to find an answer in them. Everything was working fine this morning i watched a few online videos then left to go do other things. After i came back several hours later Videos now were just black screen with audio. I didnt download any updates or anything while i  was gone but everything is up to date. I tried unchecking hareware acceleration but that didnt do anything.
ps sorry for the long post and i hope its in the right spot, Thanks in advance guys/gals

Sorry it took so long to reply. Anyways im using Vista 32 bit home edition and Firefox and chrome and my flash version is 11.3.300.257 I have noticed that the video comes up on youtube and maybe one or two other sites but the rest of them on just getting blank screens with audio. It just puzzles me because nothing changed about my computer while i was away.

  • Imported videos skip during last five minutes of video but audio is fine

    I've imported some videos i've downloaded from youtube to my 160GB ipod classic, all is fine after ipod sync. The problem arises when watching the video on my ipod, I get to the last 5 minutes of the video and it begins to play like its fast forwading and skipping parts, but I can still hear the audio perfectly fine. Videos play fine when watching them in my itunes library, so I know the video files are fine. they're MP4 format. Anything im doing wrong? Am vey confused why this is happing, any help would be much appreciated!
    Thanks

  • Black Screen in viewer but Audio plays back - AVI file

    Hello, I am a real novice but am slowly learning video editing (trying to graduate from iMovie to FCP).
    I am working on a Dual 2GHz PowerPC G5 / Leopard / OS X 10.5.6 / and running FCP 6.0.1
    I have imported AVI files to FC (taken from a Flip camera) and once I drag the file to the viewer the only playback I get is audio. (Inserting to canvas doesn't change anything).
    I have also tried importing to QuickTime Pro 7.6 and Mpeg Streamclip (which I thought would do the trick for sure - I figured I could convert the file and try again in FCP) but also only got audio playback. I thought perhaps I needed the DC30 Xact Driver from Streamclip but it is not supported on the G5s.
    The last thing I tried was downloading mplayer osx which actually played the video!! but the audio was too fast (everyone sounded like a chipmunk).
    I really want to play around with the video in FCP so what can I do to the files to make that possible?
    Sorry to be so longwinded and thanks.

    As you will learn the more you get into it, FCP does not like certain file formats. AVI and M2V being a couple. The reason you're only getting audio playback is because you are missing a codec. Try the perian codec pack which is a free tool that has alot of codecs in it. That might help. Also, the reason you can't convert it to another format is the same reason you can't play it. If the computer can't see/read/interpret the file then it can't change it's format for you. Your other option is to convert the AVI files on a PC if you have one to Apple's preferred format .MOV
    Hope this helps!

  • Playback Screen turns Green. Audio is fine but no Video

    I have been trying to find a solution on the web but can't seem to find the answer that will help my case of the FCP playback screen turns green with no video. Audio plays back fine. Everything was working fine until today. Something changed - what did changed. The recent video files I uploaded with my Sony Video Camera worked fine, played back fine, uploaded fine, and that played back normally - until today. Why did this happen? Any one found the culprit and a fix?

    Thank you Studio X and David for responding. Yes, I will stay away from m4v formats.
    Do you have a fix on how to solve the "Codec could not be opened"?
    I am scheduling an appointment with the Apple Store but I am not sure if the Genius Bar guys are up on FCP and knowledgable to figure out what changed and how to change it back to be able to playback my capture scratch files. I noticed some of the past capture scratch files no longer work and get the flashing dark green screen but some do work. It's a software issue but what is it? Any ideas?

  • No video playing in canvas or on monitor but audio is fine

    I was setting chapters markers on the timeline for DVD export and somehow hit the wrong key so when I play the video on the timeline, the audio is fine and is heard on my monitor but the video doesn't appear in the canvas (black only showing) and shows only the first frame of the particular clip on my monitor. I checked video external settings and it is set to 'all frames'.
    Any ideas how I screwed this up. It's in the settings as I went back to an autosaved version from 5 minutes previous and the same problem.
    thanks for any assistance.

    The key, btw, is w.

  • Good 2-way video but audio clear only 1-way

    The problem is with audio during Mac-to-PC AV chats.
    I'm using an iSight on a 15" PowerBook (10.3.9) with cable ISP (tested 356kbps up / 3mbps down). The PC is newer Dell running Windows XP with Quickcam Fusion and similar cable ISP performance.
    The Mac and PC achieve good video and the PC receives good audio, but for some reason the Mac receives choppy, unusable audio and sometimes none at all.
    We followed all of the posts to make sure correct ports are opened on both ends, that SP2 and extra component are installed on the PC, that the PC's mic records correctly, etc. Went through the tuning wizards, the full duplex settings, fiddling in/out volumes, echo cancellation, bit rates and cps, etc. -- all of the things recommended by EZJim's posts and the links therein, plus all of the ideas gleaned from Logitech and iVisit and anywhere else we could Google (but obviously we're missing something
    First I tried iChat (2.1) to AIM (5.9) -- could not hear any audio at all from the PC.
    Next I tried iVisit 3.4.3 -- audio was trying to get through but was heavily clipped.
    Next, both parties connected to the iVisit Help Desk. The PC-PC connection was good for both audio and video. The help desk PC-Mac connection was good for video but once again the audio was too choppy to be intelligible.
    I connected to the iChat user test account at appleu3test01 and achieved excellent video and the incoming audio was excellent too.
    Using headphones to eliminate any potential feedback loop (even after trying with speaker volume way down) had negligible effect on Mac-PC connections.
    Anyone else experience this problem? Any ideas? On the surface, the problem seems to be with how the PC sends audio or how the Mac receives it -- but I've overlooked the obvious before so...
    I can give more specific details as to what we've tried. Appreciate any help!
    Thanks -sailhome

    EZ Jim -- thanks for staying with this -- I respect all the time and detail you are putting into helping.
         --- info still shows that you are using Mac OS X (10.3.6) ---
    Sorry to confuse you. I'm definitely on 10.3.9. I don't post very often and hadn't updated my profile recently. (FWIW, I still have the iMac shown in the profile Anyhow, no 10.3.6 issues lurking.
         --- using wireless internet connections ---
    I am using an Airport but it passes all the criteria. The Airport sits immediately behind the cable modem and the modem is not serving DHCP, only the Airport does that (no address conflicts). The Mac OS firewall is in place, but I have followed the instructions to open firewall ports per http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93208 -- in fact I opened all of 5060, 5190, 5297, 5298, 5353, 5678, 16384-16403 to make certain nothing gets blocked.
    The computer is achieving 356kbps/3mbps wirelessly (dslreports) and has full bars in connection status. There have not been any packet error messages. The computer does not compete for bandwidth during AV sessions. I could hook the computer directly to the modem but given the high level of performance it does seem unlikely bandwidth is the problem.
         --- Connection Doctor ---
    Here are three observations from recent sessions:
    1) Using iChat-to-AIM the video quality stayed pegged at 100%, the frame rates hovered between 12-13fps, and the bit rates hovered at ~180kbps.
    2) Using iChat-to-AIM the audio icon was dimmed, neither party heard audio and Connection Doctor showed zero audio activity. Audio simply not available. This is perplexing because previously the PC could hear my audio fine, it was just my Mac that couldn't hear their audio.
    3) Using iVisit (I know you aren't familiar with it), video hovered at 25-30fps and bit rates hovered at 130-150kbps. Audio operated at a constant 32kbps (ADPCM setting). Bandwidth utilization was set to cap at 500kbps so there was plenty available had the application wanted it -- the point being that bandwidth does not appear to be a limiting factor in performance between the other party and myself.
    It appears there is enough broadband speed for iChat
    --- That is about all I know about "packets". You seem to know more about packets ---
    Only enough to ask dangerous questions
         --- If the problem occurs only occasionally ---
    I'll need to develop more AV buddies to reach a conclusion on that. My two buddy experiences with Mac-PC connection are consistent (bad audio). I'm in the process of making some Mac-based AV contacts -- would you be interested in testing a brief chat?
    My Mac operates fine (no quirks), is up to date (on Panther), I do the repair permissions protocol before/after every software install, etc.
    ISP connection is an interesting proposition -- but could that be the problem if video is running so smoothly both directions? I would think that if bandwidth were dodgy then video would fizzle out at least as quickly as audio (and probably faster since audio requires comparatively little bandwidth). Is there some sort of priority given to video when it comes to bandwidth utilization within the connection?
    From what I have gleaned, for Mac-PC connections the only free apps that currently support full AV chats are iChat-AIM and iVisit, so doesn't appear there will be other apps to compare against unless we start spending more money.
         --- certain buddy problem ---
    Checked out http://www.ralphjohnsuk.dsl.pipex.com/page15.html#CertainBuddy . That was interesting but none of matches my setup.
    Maybe it's time to throw in the towel and try Skype simultaneously with one of the functioning video apps. Was hoping for simplicity but is seems we've gotten way beyond that with this one!...
    Open to any more comments you (or anyone) have. Thanks again -sailhome

  • I want image instead of black screen when video ends.

    Hi guys,
    I am wondering how you place an image at the end of a VC video. I tried placing several images at the end of a recording but it always ends with a black screen when it is produced. Here is the video I am working on and I want the last text you see to stay on screen instead of the black screen.
    Thanks Gary Garnett

  • Ipod freezes video but audio keeps on going!

    Hi I have a 5th generation 32 gb iPod touch in the colour blue running IOS 7.1.2 and I noticed that whenever I'm on the web watching a video on a website, in the middle of the video the video freezes and audio keeps on going. It's honestly really annoying and when I watch the same thing on my computer it works just fine. Some people have the same problem with youtube but I don't. It works fine for me. I know it's my ipod doing it but how can I solve this problem? I've tried resetting my ipod ( holding the home button and sleep/wake button until the apple logo appears) And connecting to a different network. What can I do to solve my problem??? It's so annoying!!!!!

    Close Safari (double press home button and swipe Safari up) and go to Settings > Safari > Clear History & Clear Cookies and Data. On your computer, open http://www.howtogeek.com/113439/how-to-change-your-browsers-user-agent-without-i nstalling-any-extensions/  and follow the instructions on the browser you use. Change the setting to the iPhone with the latest available OS on your computer. Now go to the website that is having the issues and if the video doesn't play fine, then its the website and if it doesn't then restore your iPod with iTunes and try again.

  • Black screen during video loading

    Hello everybody!
    I started a new discussion about it 5 months ago, but I still have the same problem. I have tried with adobe air 3.9 and the beta 4.0 with the same result.
    I am doing an air for android app, and I have a problem when I try to load a video included in my apk.
    When a mobile phone try to load the video, the screen is black for one second.
    I would like to know if It is posible to make a preloader or any solution to avoid the black screen.
    Here you can see the situation: www.youtube.com/v/KoJ2D2eHknU
    It is very annoying and I'm trying to solve it, but it's impossible for me and I'm looking for some help.
    This is my code:
    var mNetConnection:NetConnection=new NetConnection();
    mNetConnection.connect(null);
    var mNetStream:NetStream=new NetStream(mNetConnection);     
    video.attachNetStream(mNetStream);
    mNetStream.client=this;
    mNetStream.bufferTime=0;  
    mNetStream.play("video/angela.f4v");
    mNetStream.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, onNetStreamStatusEvent);
    function onNetStreamStatusEvent(event:NetStatusEvent):void
       if (event.info.code == "NetStream.Play.Start")
          trace("NetStream.Play.Start");     
       if (event.info.code == "NetStream.Play.Stop")
          trace("NetStream.Play.Stop");
       if (event.info.code == "NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound")
          trace("Video Not Found");     
       if (event.info.code == "NetStream.Buffer.Full")
    function onMetaData(metadata:Object):void
    And It is my apk:

    Mr pranjain 
        first ,there's  so many  mobile device outside  adobe . What ever you reproduce  or  not ,you  should  know black screen  maybe  caused by "slow I/O " performance of Android ,  also ,maybe  system need time to  decode and buffer the  data.  These reason will always exist .
        Base on this ..you  really  need to know ,whatever you  reproduced or not  will not change anything.

    that means  ,the video is played finally ,the main function is worked .
       So, A profession answer  is  tell  developer how to make a  preloader.   Don't wast time on "I am not able to reproduce the issue with sample code shared by you."  it  mean nothing.

  • Spotify only displays black screen after video driver crashes

    Using Windows 8.1 64x, AMD 7800 series card with the latest AMD 15.4 beta drivers. This driver release is prone to crashing. Spotify, though, doesn't recover after the driver crashes and only displays a black screen. Restarting the program fixes the problem, but it shouldn't have to be restarted in the first place.

    I am so sorry to hear this, was it after an ad, i should be able to help, could you also tell me which country you are based in!

  • Black screen, no grey, but on. Can't access serial #

    I realize this is a common problem, but nothing I've seen has helped thus far. Out of the blue my MacBook started going black screen. start up grey screen won't show up when I turn it on; all I'm able to see are shadows. Thus, can't even try safe mode. I can't access my serial number to schedule a tech support call or chat. And, to make my life more fun, I live 5 hours from the closest Apple store. I might need a new inverter, unsure.. It's a 2008 model.

    I believe your serial number should be located beneath the battery if your MacBook is a white 2008 model. And yes, it sounds like a bad inverter or inverter cable. Does the screen come on or flicker when you tilt the screen back and forth?

  • Imported video but audio did not come over

    I imported a .flv file - the video came over but the audio did not.  I can see the mouse movement on the video but no sound.  Any ideas?

    did a backup then a restore, windows 7 to windows 8.1 but non of the keytags got posted to the pictures. they did come over as tags but all were empty. any solution?
    Please describe in more details what you did. The usual and recommended way to backup and restore is the built-in method of the Organizer:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/backup-restore-move-catalog-photoshop.html
    Was that what you did?
    Your keywords (tags) are by stored by default in the catalog. You can also 'Write metadata to files' if you wish, but an Organizer restore does restore the tags of the files in the restored catalog; that is only necessary if you re-import the pictures in a new catalog or if you use another backup software.
    they did come over as tags but all were empty. any solution?
    Do you mean you got the hierarchy of categories and tags restored in the keyword panel, but that none of those keywords were assigned to pictures?
