Black video windows in iTunes 11.1.5

since update to iTunes 11.1.5 on Windows 7 - 64-bit, I got a black video window after starting a movie from store or bibliothek (trailer and also own videos). iTunes 11.1.4.62 works fine on my other Windows 7 in a virtual machine, but I don't have the installation setup file for this version, just 11.3, 11.1.12 and older versions 10 and 9. On my Windows XP computer iTunes 11.1.0.126 works fine and videos can be watched, but not in connection with my TV (using a HDMI cable)
10 days ago I made a graphic driver update from NVIDIA "335.23-notebook-win8-win7-64bit-international-whql" for a GeForce GT 230M, but I could not beliefe there is a connection. Windows software is (always) up to date on my notebook computer, also any other 3th party software.
I reinstalled all iTunes components are described by the support, but there is no further solution.

problem solved, NVIDIA graphic driver, the latest version 335.23 was debt. I reinstalled one of the previous versions 326.80 and now iTunes displays videos as usual and perfect. It is not always the best, to have all software upto date, to the contrary it can be fatal, although all support assistents recommend this.

Black video window trying to share video from elgato video capture connected to a sony pmw-ex3 camer

Hi,
Im trying to share video on adobe connect with "elgato video capture" usb plug in capture card, connected with a sony pmw-ex3 professional camera on a Lenovo windows 8 laptop, but the video window appears on black.
I have tried to change the resolution from low to high on the program, but it doesnt works. i´ve tried to change from panoramic to normal view size, and still dont work.
If i use the "elgato video capture" software from elgato web, the card works fine and capture video from the sony camera.
What should i do?It could be caused by screen resolution?
P.S: I have tried on a windows 7 asus laptop and it works fine.

You may need to use DVdriver along with your desired USB device. It allows your computer to see the video input as a 'webcam' and thus allows Connect to see it. Free to try, $20 to buy.

Quicktime 7.5 - Black Video and no Audio - Using Windows Vista

Hello,
I tried asking this, but I don't think I was clear enough.
Current Computer - Dell Inspiron, Quad Core, 4gig Ram, < 1yr old.
Running OS - Vista Home
Up until recently Quicktime worked fine, then all of the sudden the video is gone.
The audio is still there however.
What I have done to try to resolve -
1) Reviewed previous topics and tried the following -
a) update Preferences to Safe Mode (That made a white stripe in the black screen)
b) Update preferences to remove Direct 3D video acceleration, nothing changed
2) Reinstall Quicktime 7.5 - No change, still shows BLACK video and will play audio
3) Reinstall Itunes with Quicktime - No change still shows BLACK video and will play audio
Thank you for any help you can provide!

I have found a temporary workaround for this. I can open the indeo 5.1 formatted avi's in another program (either fade to black or virtualdub) and change/convert to another indeo codec called IYUV (as opposed to IV50) and while it renders a much larger avi file, those DO open in Quicktime, and when I export to convert this larger avi into a MOV file, it is about the same file size in the end product as the ones I render from the same 5.1 avi on the other computer. Knowing I can do this as needed saves me having to re-render all 400 or so of my avi's to another codec or lose them.
I STILL think there is a fix out there that is related to somehow telling the registry to recognize the ir50_32.qtx codec the same as I finally did to get Windows MP to play these files, but I haven't figured out how to do that yet.
Progress is supposed to make these files SMALLER with BETTER quality, but all I see so far with these "new improved" codecs is bigger files and no better (or even worse) image/sound quality. I'll change to more "modern" codecs when they show me one that is an actual improvement over the old one based on this criteria. And AVI remains the ONLY file format that can be extensively modified and edited artistically (zoom, crop, add watermarks and color filters and special effects). Apple is shooting themselves in the foot if they make us unable to open our AVIs in the pro version so we can continue to use QT Players on our web pages. I LIKE the mov finished product for both file size and quality, and I am happy to drive new customers to them as long as they let me convert my files in QT Pro. When I can't any longer, I'll convert every single website on all my websites player to Flash.

[SOLVED]xf86-video-intel-2.13.0-2 - Black screen/windows

I've upgraded from xf86-video-intel-2.13.0-1 to release 2 and now every GL window is black, with no rendering.
For example, glxgears give-me a black empty window with no rendering, also the games stoped working.
I can confirm this issue on this igp:
(II) intel(0): Integrated Graphics Chipset: Intel(R) Q35
Mesa 7.9
Any more confirmations?
Downgrading to extra/xf86-video-intel solves the problem.

On Windows 7, Itunes 64-bit is playing all videos with a green overlay

On Windows 7, Itunes 64-bit is playing all videos with a green overlay. You can see the video, but it's all green-scale (like grey-scale, only green). I've tried setting the Quicktime Direct3D options per Apple knowledge base articles, but to no avail... Windows 7 is all up to date, and I have the latest video drivers installed.
The videos play perfectly in Quicktime (32-bit; I guess there isn't a 64-bit Quicktime?).
Here's a screenshot:
I'd love to get this fixed; it's really baffling and annoying.

I had the same problem and surfed around the internet like a maniac. Finally, after several re-openings and re-installs of iTunes, I tried to log on to my account through the "Genius" - which I could. After that I have not had any problems to go to the Store!
Hope it works for you too!

Black built-in video windows in Safari

First of all, I know there are several threads and questions regarding similar issues, but it seems to me that this might not be the same problem.
On some websites (such as a Norwegian newspaper and on the Colbert Report and Daily Show websites) I simply can not play videos anymore. The built-in video windows just goes black. I hear the sound, I can use the scroll bar, but the video itself is black. Unlike similar issues posted in these communities, this does not affect Youtube, and it did not help to uninstall Flash Player 13 and downgrade to FP 12, so I don't think this is a Flash Player issue (I don't think the Norwegian newspaper that has the problem is running on flash neither, but I am not sure). This has been happening for about a month or so. Everytime this happens in Safari it works in both Chrome and Firefox. I've emptied the Safari cache and deleted the browsing and data settings in Flash Player, but to no avail. Please help.

Might be an incompatible Safari extension or third party plug-in. (DivX and other video add ons can cause issues with Flash).
From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.
If it's not an extensions issue, try troubleshooting third party plug-ins.
Back to Safari > Preferences. This time select the Security tab. Deselect: Allow all other plug-ins. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that made a difference, instructions for troubleshooting plugins here.

Some of the home videos added to iTunes library have no sound although they play on quicktime player from my windows libraries. Any suggestions?

I have added some home videos to my iTunes library and there is no sound on them. The files are .MOV (film file) from my olympus camera and play perfectly OK with QuickTime player from the Windows library and from the iTunes media library. I am using Windows 8.1 and iTunes 12.1.1.4. Any suggestions as to how I can fix this problem please?

Dont worry, I found a handy little tool that I think anyone who has any problems with ipod video should try. Its in Japanese, but just set the language to english, its pretty obvious. http://www.videohelp.com/tools?tool=3GP_Converter

How to close video window without closing iTunes?

I usually watch video podcasts on iTunes rather than on my iPod. But when the video finishes, how do I close that window without closing iTunes?

Oops. I just discovered the little white circle with the x in it, that appears in the upper right corner of the video window when the cursor is moved inside the window.

ITunes Stops Responding When Trying To Play Video - Windows 7 64bit

Ok, I've been getting my new Win7 box up and going. Everything is working great with the exception of iTunes.
Setting up iTunes / Quicktime is quick and easy. After a single reboot then launching iTunes and trying to play any video results in "iTunes has stopped responding". Then it shuts down.
If I either, re-install iTunes or Quicktime. Video works again, until I reboot. Then I end up with the same error message "iTunes has stopped responding".
I've ran the test over and over, probably a dozen times. I re-install and all works again, until I reboot. And yes, I scanned for viruses, I've check and rechecked settings.
Can anyone help!? I really want to move everything from my XP machine to Win7, but this one thing keeps holding me up.

PLEASE!! ANYONE! No one has any ideas?

I may have a solution for choppy video playback for iTunes Windows users

My setup:
- Intel NUC (i5)
- 8gb memory
- Intel 5000 Graphics with 1GB memory (share of system memeory)
- iTunes 12
- iTunes library on NAS via GigaLan
Had problems with very choppy and freezing HD video playback in iTunes and tried everything... Every other player works fine.
1. downgrade audio playback
2. played with Quicktime settings
However, I think I might have a workaround. You need to do the following,
1. Install Quicktime 7
2. Install iTunes
3. Download ffdshow (Sep 2014 version) and install the codecs: pretty much leaving all do default
4. Set audio quality in Sound and Quicktime options in control panel, and iTunes to 16bit 48k
5. In advanced options of Quicktime in control panel, deselect "Direct 3D" & "Enable directdraw on seondary display", ONLY tick "enable directdraw accerleration"
Well, at least this works for me for now.
HOWEVER!!!
@Apple! You need to address this issue once for all, I can't believe there is no solution. As a paying customer who buy quite a few of your movies in iTunes, I expect to have a harssell free experience. Consumers should NOT have to go through all these troubles trying to fix a product you have released and making billions out of.
Reason why I switched from Android to Apple for my phones and tablets is becasue of the seamless user experience, regretfully I have to admit, this advantage is quickly going away. The amount of glitches in your recent ios updates and itunes are simply unacceptable.

Downloading videos on 7.0.2 hasn't worked as well as everyone had hoped. I still can't get mine to work, but i do know a few people who haven't had trouble with the newer itunes.

Why doesn't my converted video play in iTunes but on my iPad?

Hey folks,
I most recently converted my AVI DVD Backups to comply with my iTunes / iPad / iPhone environment.
One of the TV Shows ("Arrested Development" if anyone cares) shows some kind of awkward behavior:
Device
Sync / add to Library
Plays
iTunes
yes
no
iPhone 4
yes
yes
iPad 1
yes
yes
The files doesn't seem to be corrupt, as they play perfectly fine on VLC, but when I launch them in iTunes the Video window opens in the correct size, but remains black. Even if I stream the movies through home sharing to other iOS devices it plays fine. I used iFlicks to convert the files.

Thanks

please guys, any Idea?

Can't submit picture for video podcast in itunes

When I first got my video podcast up, it had a picture. Since I changed it a couple of times, now all I see is the black box in the itunes window. I get the question mark in the submit window when trying to submit again.
The help section off iweb says to, "drag a picture into the submit window" when submiting a podcast to itunes. That is impossible as far as I can see.
How do I update my artwork for my itunes store podcast?
http://rss.mac.com/pskunk/iWeb/Site/Podcast/rss.xml

Hi,
Find the XML file iWeb makes, open it up in a text editor and change the entry for image and reference a small 300x300 image of your choosing which is located somewhere on your webspace.
Look at the podcasting how to from Apple. If you're on Dotmac, your XML file is published in a fork from iWeb called RSS.
Copy the file and amend it each time you upload. I'm afraid that seems to be the only way to do it.

How do I add my video files to the "home videos" folder on itunes?

Sorry, I'm relatively new at this, I'm trying to add my family videos to my itunes "home videos" in itunes but I can't seem to bring them into my library. ideas?

make sure they are MP4 or MOV files, and simply drag them into the library window of iTunes.

IPod Nano 4Gb (2nd Gen) not detected by Windows or iTunes

I am hoping someone can help me with this as I am at my wits end.
When I plug my iPod into the usb port, it begins the charging process, but neither windows, nor iTunes will detect any new devices. I have tried the 4 R's (the fifth needs a connection with iTunes), putting it into disc mode, and even on 3 different windows computers, but no dice. To save the no doubt normal questions, The usb ports are 2.0, and brand spanking new, which i have tested sucessfully with other usb devices, so I know it's not the usb port. I have the latest drivers & updates installed, and the latest version of iTunes also installed.
Other potentially useful info:
The model is iPod nano 4bg alu 2nd gen
It's not new, i was given it as a gift by a friend who upgraded to the video model.
Though I can't be sure, I suspect that the dock cable isn't an apple product. Given that *very few* places where I live sell official iPod accessories, it is difficult for me to check.
Like I said, i really hope someone can help me, I really don't know how long i can go listening to my friends rather dubious music tastes...

hi,
try the following article my friend...it will definitely resolve your problem..
