Chipmunk sounds when viewing videos from websites

hello,
i have several HP dc5850 workstations in my office.  Most of my people need to view video content from different websites from time to time.
However when we listen to the playback, the sound we here sounds like that of a chipmunk.  Like it is in fast forward mode or something.  This is using Microsoft Windows Media Player.
Has anyone come over this issue and how was it resolved?
I look forward to your responses.
Thanks,
Desmond

Hilarious (sorry)...
This should be the audio effects in WMP. Use the following support doc to turn them off. Somebody had them enabled whenthe hard drive images were made?

Please post rather than send me a Message. It's good for the community and I might not be able to get back quickly. - Thank you.

  • Why don't I have sound when viewing videos on Facebook or you tube?

    Why don't. I have sound when viewing videos on Facebook or you tube?

    Quicktime or Quicktime Pro (which iTunes uses) don't convert "muxed" ( muxed means multiplexed where the audio and video are stored on the same track) video files properly. It only plays the video and not the audio.
    See:iPod plays video but not audio.
    You need a 3rd party converter to convert the file with both audio and video.
    See this for help: Guide to converting video for iPod (Mac/Windows).

  • Screen dimming & going to sleep when watching videos from websites

    when clicking on a video from websites or from news readers (eg. Focus or Stern) this doesn’t prevent TP to dim the screen and even go to stand-by/sleep after the time set in the TP configuration. So you have to touch every now and then in order to keep it running.
    Post relates to: HP TouchPad (WiFi)

    yeah noticed this last night when being v lazy and watching a load of stuff in bed, kept having to tap the screen which would inadvertantly click some element of the app or webpage that launched the vid, could do with the dimmer not kicking in when video of any sort is being played.

  • Missing sound when showing videos from iPad to Apple TV.

    When showing YouTube videos from my ipad on apple tv, there is no sound from tv or iPad. What do I do?

    Do other types of videos (e.g, streamed from your own Videos library on the iPad) work?

  • No sound when playing video from organizer in PSe 4.0

    I am currently having a problem with previewing video in the organizer in Photoshop Elements 6.0.  The problem is that there is no sound.  I thought something went wrong during the import of these videos from the camcorder to the PC hard drive (imported through the Adobe Downloader) so I tried to use them in a project in Premier Elements 4.0.
    If I open these videos in Premier Elements 4.0, you can hear the sound.  Also, it's only for the .mpg I copy over from the camcorder.  There are .avi files and .mov files in the organizer and those play just fine.
    I use Windows XP with an older DELL system.
    Anybody have this problem?  Any suggestions how to fix it?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.  I tried searching the web and these forums but I didn't find anything that matched my problem.
    Tony H.

    My suspicion is that there is not an appropriate system available mpeg2 codec on your Windows XP machine for the Photoshop Elements 6 Organizer to use for the playback of your .mpg file.  Premiere Elements 4 provides its own codec for mpeg2 and I think that is why it can work with these files.
    What solved this type of problem for me on an older Dell desktop runnning XP Home using Sony hard drive SD camcorder .mpg files was
    -- to install the software provided by Sony on the CD that came with the camera
    -- I think that the critical factor provided by the Sony software was the addition of an mpeg2 codec that Photoshop Elements 6 Organizer could then use.
    I do want to emphasize that my solution may have been influenced by the specifics of my system: therefore, I can't be sure if it will resolve your problem.

  • No sound when playing video from iTunes on a Satellite M45

    Hi,
    After trying to play a video from iTunes on a Toshiba Satellite M45, the entire sound system went out. I think there is something wrong with the sound drivers or it/they can't be detected. I'm new to the PC world and any help in easy-to-understand terms will be grateful. Is there any destinations where I can download a new driver.
    I need to fend off the insanity that's creeping in. Thanks.
    Caden

    Hi
    I think you should firstly check the device manager if there are any yellow exclamation marks near to the sound card.
    If yes so the sound driver reinstallation could help.
    It seems that the notebook was designed for the US market. (because of the 5 at the end of the number)
    So I think you should take a look on the US Toshiba site for driver updates.

  • Can't view photos or stream videos from websites on iPad 3

    When I go to a website with safari, I can't stream video or view photo galleries.  It tells me that I need adobo flash player.  That is not supported for this device.  How do I see photoographs or stream video from websites??

    Jenpre.... keep your head down in that hurricane, and good luck. I hope it moves away soon for you all.
    When I say "more modern", from what I've read many sites recognise that Flash can be a problem on mobile devices (phones and tablets) because it's very power hungry. So, if I understand things correctly, many sites are putting up html5 versions, which is supposed to be much easier on computers / devices. Quite oftne when I go to a site on my iPad it auto-diverts to the "mobile" version of the site, and I haven't found a single case where I can't see a video. To be truthful, even if not directed to a mobile version, I don't have much trouble with any of the sites I visit..... I can see most videos and pretty much all graphics, the same as I can on my Mac, which does run Flash.
    Still, I'm sure a computing expert will know much more.
    Good luck in that hurricane....
    PS... there are quite a few good hurricane tracking Apps you know....

  • No sound when viewing movie in Windows browser

    Hi.
    I posted a video on my website and it plays fine when viewed on any Mac browser but plays without sound when viewed with IE after booting Windows XP under Boot Camp. The following message appears under Windows when the video is selected:
    "Additional software is required for QuickTime to play back this media. It may be available from the QuickTime Components page."
    I couldn't see anything on the Components page that seemed suitable.
    The video was taken with a DV-PAL camcorder, edited in iMovie HD and exported to QuickTime movie with Expert Settings using H.264 codec and MPEG 4 Low Delay AAC sound setting at 48 kHz (the only available rate option) and 160 kbps bit rate. As well as the original soundtrack (dialogue) the movie has an imported music soundtrack consisting of two files, one .mp4 format and one .m4a format. I assume it is these imported tracks that are causing the problem, since I have QT Pro on my Mac, but only the free QT on Windows. All the other movies I have posted only have a single soundtrack (either original camera soundtrack or imported music, not both), and all play fine on both Windows and Macs.
    My question: what do I need to do to make my movie play without problem on any platform, without additional software being required by the viewer?
    Thanks.

    I solved the problem by re-exporting my movie with IMA 4:1 format sound. This doesn't compress as much as MPEG 4 Low Delay AAC but at least IE8 can handle multi-track sound with it. IE8 can handle MPEG 4 Low Delay AAC encoded SINGLE-TRACK sound fine, just not (apparently) multi-track. So if your movie only uses the original video soundtrack, or if it only uses a music track (with a slideshow, for example), it'll work fine. But if you have both, for example fading dialogue and music in and out, you might want to check that it plays as expected in the Windows IE world. If your movie plays without sound in IE, try another sound format. I didn't experiment with all the iMovie sound export options as I struck lucky first time with IMA 4:1.
    I learned about and recommend the free program IE Tester (http://www.my-debugbar.com/wiki/IETester/HomePage) from another poster here. It allows you to test web pages with IE all the way back to version 5. If 80% of internet surfers use IE (as some claim), we Mac-users really need to test our sites using this browser. My problematic movie now works fine with all tested versions of IE.

  • When sending video from my iphone to apple tv it says on screen it is doing it but it wont play on tv but audio works great

    when sending video from my iphone to apple tv it says on screen it is doing it but it wont play on tv but audio works great

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Websites and third party Apps need enabling before they will allow AirPlay of Video content. Some Website/App developers have not enabled their products, some simply haven't got around to it yet, others have stated that they won't be enabling AirPlay (likely as a result of licensing issues).
    I have created a User Tip to list Apps that have been tested with Video Airplay, if you have any Apps that you have tested please email me details and I'll add them to the User Tip.

  • AirPlay to stream videos from websites

    I have an iPhone 4 that I just recently upgrade the iOS to 4.3 and I also have atv2 that it upgraded as well. I'm trying to stream some videos from a website and it only let's me stream the audio but ther is no picture on the tv. I thought with the new update of the iOS 4.3. Apple said that it was able to stream videos from websites and third party apps. Does any one know how this suppose to work?

    The website must be AirPlay compatible to get both video and sound. YouTube should be. The same applies to 3rd party apps. A 3rd party app must be updated by the app developer to be AirPlay compatible.

  • My iPad recently stopped running video from websites and itunes store samples

    my ipad won't run video from websites (ex. CNN just shows a still and no way to start), youtube just has the spinng timer as does itunes when I'm trying to get a song sample. Suggestions? These worked fine amonth ago.

    Close all apps in the recents tray and reboot the iPad.
    Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Close every app. Tap the home button twice.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • My macbook pro (2010 13inch) is really laggy when I'm using apps like iTunes and safari. the arrow on the screen seems to not respond and is laggy and when viewing videos it can be really laggy. I just want to know if it was a problem i could fix, thanks.

    You might start with:
    Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder.  Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu.  Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order.  If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time, then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar.  Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process.  See if that helps.  Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
    If the above reveals nothing helpful, then create a new user account. Log out of your account and log into the new account. Do the problems cease?
