Can't hear audio for movies on 1st generation ATV

Anybody know how to fix the audio while watching movies on first generation apple tv? On my apple tv, I can hear audio for music, music videos, youtube, internet radio and even movie previews! But..... when I pay for the rental download of a movie there is no audio - just visuals. I am connecting with hdmi. When I connect an apple tv 2nd generation to the same amp and tv, using same hdmi and even same power lead and same settings then there is no problem! Anybody know how I can get audio to work for movies for this?

I would suspect that it have to do with surround 5.1 settings
if you don't have such a speaker setup but have turned it on in appletv settings
the audio would likely be playing in the speakers you don't have
rather then the tv's speakers
your own material is likely not 5.1 surround but stereo
so there you dont get the problem

  • Can not hear audio for tv episode

    I have iTunes 8.0 and it was working fine, but I bought a tv episode today and when I go to play it i can't hear any sound. I can hear my other tv shows but this one episode does not work.
    any ideas on to what could be the problem

    Hi Brittany,
    With iTunes open, select the TV episode you purchased, then on your keyboard press Command + I. That will prompt the Get Info window. Click the Options tab and use the Volume slider to adjust the audio/equalizer. Click OK to close the window. See if that helps...
    Also, if you are viewing the TV episode directly in the iTunes window, make sure you have the volume slider located top left in that window to the right.
    Make sure the volume is set correctly on your MacBook or iMac... controls on your keyboard... typically the F1 and F2 keys.

  • HT4437 Can I use AirPlay for Apple TV 1st generation

    Is it possible to stream from iPad or iPhone to Apple TV 1st generation.

    No, Airplay does not work on AppleTV 1.  The software does not handle the protocol.
    While Apple TV 1 can handle the Airtunes protocol for audio, current iOS versions seems to ignore this from apps like Music.
    Your only option for audio on current iOS I've found is to use Remote app to control an itunes library for music and use 'Airplay' to the AppleTV for the music - iTunes still allows Airplay devices output for audio.
    You could also control AppleTV connected to a Sync or Share iTunes library using Remore but of course computer needs to be running.

  • Can't hear audio on tracks three and four

    Hi,
    I'm new to FCP 5. When I go the the audio mix window I can see the audio for tracks 3 and 4, i just can't listen to it. I checked my general settings under real time audio mixing and it says 8 tracks. I don't have any other applications up. Any ideas?
    I should also mention that when I turn off tracks 1 and 2 I still can't hear the other tracks
    Dual 2GB G5   Mac OS X (10.4.2)  

    First, check the simple things .. like are those 2 tracks muted? Are both tracks enabled?
    Do FCP's meters indicate that there IS audio there? What happens if you load either of those tracks into the Viewer - can you hear them? What happens if you move the clips on those tracks up to track 1 & 2?

  • I have video clips with 4 channels of audio, I can only hear audio recorded on channel one, how do I hear the other channels......?

    I have video clips with 4 channels of audio, I can only hear audio recorded on channel one, how do I hear the other channels......?

    What version of Premiere Elements and on what computer operating system?     Elements 13 on Windows 7
    What is the brand/model/settings of the camera that recorded these videos?        ony  PMW 320
    When you import them into your Premiere Elements project, what does Premiere Elements Properties for that import give for
    the audio description in the way of number of channels? If you open the Audio Meter (Window Menu/Audio Meters) and you play back
    the video in the Premiere Elements Editor, how many channels does the Audio Meter display?   
      I just drag and drop video and when playing back only channel 1 will appear
    What is your intended export for this video in terms of audio as well as video compression and formats?    MP4
    I think you can only use audio if it's recorded on channel 1 or it does not recognize it.
    Thanks for the help if possible,Kevin416 873 8374

  • HT1386 Syncing works but can't hear audio with headphones.

    Syncing works but can't hear audio with headphones.  Works without headphones though.

    Have you tried other headphones?
    What does syncing have to do with the problem?
    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

  • When I enter video in timeline, does not show on monitor.  when I play video, can only hear audio.

    So within the past couple of days, when I load video into the timeline it does not come up on screen.  When I play video, I can only hear audio.  If I click on monitor, I get still frame of video.  Also received window saying we have detected an incompatible display driver.  Not sure why this has happened all of a sudden....

    Does your Premiere Elements 10 run on a computer with a NVIDIA GeForce video card? If so, which specific NVIDIA GeForce card? If your computer is not using a NVIDIA GeForce video card, then that Announcement at the topic of the forum does not apply to you. This particular issue is specific for Premiere Elements 10 NVIDIA GeForce.
    If all that did apply to you, what version of the driver did you roll back to?
    http://www.atr935.blogspot.com/2014/02/pe10-nvidia-video-card-roll-back.html
    If you do not have a NVIDIA Ge Force video card, something else, and you have only one video card, then try deleting the BadDrivers.txt file. In your Windows 7 64 bit, the path to it should be
    Local Disk C
    Program Data
    Adobe
    Premiere Elements
    10.0
    and in the 10.0 Folder is the BadDrivers.txt file that you delete. Be sure to be working with Folder Option Show Hidden Files, Folders, and Drives active so that you can see the complete path cited.
    Please let us know the outcome.
    Thank you.

  • 4s microphone has always malfunctioned (people can't hear me) for first 10 seconds of outgoing phone calls. I've synched w healthy Macbook Pro, replaced SIM cards, replaced iPhone 4s, called Applecare (no mic issue admitted). OS problem?

    4s microphone has malfunctioned on most outgoing calls for many months. People can't hear me for first 10 seconds of outgoing phone calls. I've synched w healthy Macbook Pro, replaced SIM cards, replaced iPhone 4s when Apple Store thought it was probably a hardware problem, called Applecare (no mic issue admitted). OS problem??? I think so! [Possible] good news: for the past 2 days, since updating to 5.1.1, no one has reported problems hearing me!
    I'm concerned Applecare folks did not admit to me that so many other 4s users also has malfunctioning mics.

    Why would that even matter?
    The device obviously has a hardware issue and is under warranty, take it to Apple for replacement and move on with life.  No reason to make things difficult.

  • How can you get audio for  books on the kindle

    how can you get audio for  books on the kindle

    The audio inputs on Macs are line level inputs and not mic inputs.  You need a mic with a built in preamp (battery powered) or more conveniently a USB mic or bluetooth headset.

  • Can't hear audio in mac PE 9

    I can't hear audio in my sceneline or timeline when playing clips. Makes it really hard to edit!
    i capture video/audio from my mini-dv sony cam or from vhs through firewire gadget...
    i added an m4v file to the project, couldn't hear audio either
    the audio is there, because if i just trim off the ends and create a dvd it has audio....
    The problem is on my mac mini... i installed it on my i7 laptop and audio works just fine.
    i've checked all the audio settings on both machines and they are the same.
    both have vlc and perian installed
    just installed the 9.01 patch... no change
    does anyone know what might be causing this?
    thanks

    I've tried changing those to all possible combinations.... System Default, Built-in Output, etc. nothing helps.
    on the mini, if you have speakers plugged in, it shows "headphones" as the only output option
    i notice in the "audio output mapping" it shows headphones 1 and headphones 2
    that seems strange as there is only one set of headphones
    i checked my laptop settings ...there was nothing selected on my laptop in audio output mapping
    "nothing selected" was not an option on the mini... so i renamed my prefs file and started PE again
    then i had nothing selected in the audio output mapping... but it still didn't work
    i forgot to mention something.... if i click on the slider/trim thing, and just hold down the arrows on the keyboard to advance the video, it advances at super slow motion and i DO get audio... so i think i have preferences set right.
    any other ideas?

  • Can I use Bluetooth headphones with a 1st generation iPhone?

    Can I use Bluetooth headphones with a 1st generation iPhone? The headphones pair but the sound comes out of the phone and not the headphones. The phone has iOS 3.1 which is the last software the phone will support. Thanks.

    This will help you:
    Original iPhone
    The original iPhone features Bluetooth capabilities only for making calls. Connecting to a PC or streaming audio other than phones calls through Bluetooth is not supported.
    IPhone 3G
    With the iPhone 3G operating system, its Bluetooth capabilities are expanded to support wireless stereo headsets, file sharing with other Bluetooth devices, and use of the iPhone as a 3G modem. Also supported are new capabilities for combining the iPhone with Bluetooth accessories.
    IPhone 4.0
    The 4.0 version of the iPhone's operating systems keeps the expanded Bluetooth functions introduced in version 3 and adds one new benefit: Bluetooth keyboard support, so iPhone owners can use wireless keyboards wherever they go.
