Choppy Sound

Hi,
I am having a problem with importing sound from my JVC camera. I can view it on the camera and it is fine but as soon as I begin to import the sound goes completly choppy. If I leave it for a few hours and come back I can import about 2 minutes before it begins to mess up again. I have tried different cables and all my ports. I have used different tapes. I read a few forums on here and tried to fix my sound which was running at 24 bit instead of 16 bit, that did nothing. Any help would be apreciated.

Hi JoMills:
Welcome to discussions!
I read a few forums on here and tried to fix my sound which was running at 24 bit instead of 16 bit, that did nothing
So, you tried recording new footage in 16-bit, but still the same problem?
How much free space do you have? Which JVC camera do you have?

Really Choppy Sound in Windows 7

?Hi guys, i want to share my problem and seek a possible fix. So thats my problem: I get really CHOPPY sound in games, outside everything is fine, everything is OK, but in-game its like listening to a vynil played a thousand times. My rig is the following: Win7 x64, 4GB RAM, Nvidia 9800GT GPU, XtremeMusic installed on my PCI slot, latest Creative drivers (drivers only, nothing else). The problem happens in games that are not EAX compatible: Battlefield Bad Company 2, Left 4 Dead 2. Put in simple: it happens randomly, it affects all games. Sometimes i get it fixed in L4D2 by changing the output a couple of times (i.e 2>5.>7.>2) but most of the times i have to exit the game and pray to start clean. I tried daniel_k drivers but with them i randomly loose the whole sound output and i have to change through the Working modes to get it back. If anything in summary: i regret purchasing this piece of **bleep**. But still i'll welcome any help to fix my issues.

Re: Choppy sound in Windows 7 on Sound Blaster Audigy SEk What I meant was when you uninstall your graphics driver and use standart VGA drivers then the sound turns to normal without any crackling/popping. But of course you wouldnt want to do that or else you wouldnt have graphics accerelation. (You can't play video games and even watch any kind of video)
For instance you freshly setup windows, dont install any nvidia/ati drivers, just with the big screen, install the creative drivers u wont have any problem with your sound.
That's why I said that there's a kind of confliction between graphics interface and creative drivers. Because when u install any kind of display driver, crackling sound starts again.
There's no solution for this except updated SB drivers. And that's why people get mad to creative on this forum. (Not only on this forum of course, it's a worldwide madness)

Choppy sound in Windows 7 on Sound Blaster Audigy SE

Hey all,
I recently upgraded to Windows 7 and I love it with the exception of my sound card. Ever since I upgraded, all my sounds are super choppy (like every 5 seconds it chops). Of course I installed the new creative windows 7 drivers but it didn't fix the problem. Anyone have any ideas as to what could be causing this or other possible solutions to try?
Thanks,
Jason

Windows7 64 bit and Audigy 2 choppy sound while recording what you hear

Driver version I have currently installed 6.0..37 I tried to record off youtube in "What You hear" while using Wavelab5 mode and the sound is very choppy, I tried every setting I could think of but am unable to record, I managed to get one recording but tnext one with same settings is coming up rearry choppy. Another problem when browsing the support I click on "If your product is not listed above, please click here" I choose Audigy-->Audigy2 but I get nothing in the next window, I tried on FF and IE8 but nothing populates in the next field, found another way to get to the drivers but when I choose Windows 7 64 bit and choose drivers it takes me to the main support page here <a rel="nofollow" href="http://support.creative.com/welcome.aspx"]http://support.creative.com/welcome.aspx[/url]
I am on:
Intel Q2600
Gigabyte GA-X48-DQ6
2 x 2GB DDR2 - 800 CL4 Ballistix
Windows7 Ultimate 64 bit
Kaspersky Internet Security 200.
All current Windows7 updates are installed.
Oh yeah I can hear music (mp3, avi, youtube or any online source) no problem in either winamp, WMP2 or in Wavelab5 while monitoring. It's only the recording that is giving me trouble.
Cheers

<div class="DownloadDate">"Release date : 3 Jul 09<div class="DownloadShortDesc">This?download is a?driver providing Microsoft? Windows?7, Windows Vista? and Windows XP support for Creative Sound Blaster? Audigy? series of audio devices. For more details, read the rest of this web release note."?
Right where do I start...... I got the latest drivers installed, "What You Hear" was working for about oh four recordings then stopped and back to choppy recorded sound, I went through alll options and nada. So I downloaded Audacity to see if this was a problem with Wavelab and re-tried. Well same thing choppy sound and even rebooting did not help. So I will be taking EVERYTHING!!!!!! CREATIVE off my machine, if these idiots cannot be bothered to release drivers that work then I'm going elsewhere. My music creating will have to be put on hold, my 22m will still have to sit in it's box.
Creative you are all a bunch of ?$"?%$%" idiots period. You have ALWAYS (till now in my case anyway) had good drivers. Even though Windows 7 has been in RC for ages you (absolutely missed that boat, hell you didn't even get up to try to catch it) cannot be bothered to write drivers that work and your idiotic half cooked attempts at customer service to give your bread and butter (that's right your customers who keep you in business) solid drivers are an absolute joke. YOU CAN KISS MY SHINY METAL HINEY!!!!! (thanks Bender lol). I am going to my onboard drivers. Thanks Creative (the name "creative" is kind of contradiction in itself, you should look up the meaning of the word lol). Oh and I will be advising EVERYONe who thinks of upgrading to Windows7 to avoid Creative hardware.

Question for forum users: what is the best way to get rid of every bit of drivers?

Very choppy sound on t5570e Thin client

Hello dear HP support forum and forum gurus.
Our company bought approx 3 000 Thin Clients (t5570e) for a big organization in our country. The problem we encountered is associated with sound.
Every thin client connects to a Terminal Server /WinServer 2008R2/ via RDP (port:3389). Every RDServer configured identically.
Let’s take one site (biggest one) with 6 RDServers and 800-850 users. The strange things happens!!! On some RDServers (ok RDServrs hostnames: TS1, TS4, TS5) users can view videos on YouTube with perfect sound, but the same user on another RDServer of the same RDfarm can view YouTube video but with very choppy sound (not ok RDServrs hostnames: TS2, TS3, TS6).
I mentioned when user starts its RDP session and when RD Connection Broker redirected that user to ok RDServers HP Velocity tray icon on Thin Client became green. But when RD Connection Broker redirected that user to not ok RDServers, HP Velocity tray icon on Thin Client remains blue. Anyway, at a moment when I mentioned this behavior of HP Velocity tray icon on Thin Client, HP Velocity Server Side applications weren’t installed on any RDServer.
A few weeks ago I installed HP Velocity Server Side x64 on all RDServers. Now I see HP Velocity Tray Icon on my RDServer. I can even view IP Addresses of a thin clients that redirected to a RDServer. But the problem remains.
Now, when RD Connection Broker redirected a user to not ok RDServer, HP Velocity tray Icon became green but even after installing Server Side App, sound remains very choppy.
Please help me understand what the problem is?
Regards

Choppy Sound using the X-fi Platin

hey guys, just have a problem.
has anyone else using the X-Fi Platinum Card under Vista Experiance choppy sound and/or drop out's depending on what your doing I'm using driver version 2.8.0004 and im experiancing very very weird sound distortions and what not during game play when i play World of warcraft in a window. it's really strange behaviour so ill try and explain it best i can.
Normally, when i play WoW I play it at in a Window. and alot of time's i want to listen to music while i play the game. when i have the sound enabled while playing the game and try and load up itunes the music will work fine. but when i disable the sound in game and contenue to listen to music the sound gets all choppy and distorted, and on rare occasions it'll drop out. but if i have the sound disabled in game and try and play a mp3 it doesnt work at all and just sits there at 0:00
Its the same thing when i want to watch TV and play WoW at the same time.
When i have the sound enabled, the Audio playback in my TV Tuner Card/Software work's perfectly fine (aside from the occasional strange static popping sounds in and out sounds) its when i disable In Game sound in WoW is where i'd start having problems.
its not just with WoW either, when im watching TV and start web browsing, and try and load up something on youtube, usualy ill hear a loud static POP sound before the audio drops.
and if i try and load up itunes too watch a video, same thing, static sound. then audio drop out.
I'd blame vista if i wasnt having similar problems on XP before i upgraded.at the most, these problems just negate my ability too multi task like i'd like too on multipule screens. but atleast when i was on XP i was only geting the occassional audio drop out, and was able to multi task like i wanted too. but can anyone explain what's going on..
Thanks in advanced, my system specs are in my signature.

Yes, most people are having these same issues.

Choppy sound when using airplay with airport express

Hi everyone,
This is my first posting and I hope I can get some advice with the following situation:
Setting: a CISCO router with WIFI for my apartment, a mac mini, an iphone and an ipad all connected to the network. I also have an airport express that is attached to a set of speakers (the airport express is connected to the network as a client).
When I try to use airplay from ANY device and play music to my speakers connected to the airport express, I get choppy sound (volume goes up and down) and bad sound quality.
Any advice and how to go around the issue?
I've updated firmware but the issue doesn't seem to be that.
Best Regards,
Will

Ensure that your Wi-Fi router is set up with the recommended settings for the best performance.
Certain external devices, such as microwave ovens and baby monitors, may interfere with a Wi-Fi network. Try moving or disabling these devices.
If possible, try to locate your Wi-Fi router in the same room as your iOS device and Apple TV.
If your wireless and wired networks are the same, try connecting your Apple TV to the router via Ethernet instead of Wi-Fi.
If the Wi-Fi router has an external antenna, check to see that is it connected properly and in good condition.

Ekiga has very choppy sound

I've tried running Ekiga both on 32 and 64 bit Arch, and I can't seem to get it to function correctly. What's happening is I get really choppy sound. I believe that all of my sound system is functioning properly, and I could run Skype under 32 bit just fine (when I had 32 bit). I've tried changing the audio codecs with only minor changes in the results. I've turned off echo cancelation. I've played with the jitter settings. Nothing seems to fix it. My best guesses are:
1) The codecs simply don't like my audio components (or visa-versa).
2) Ekiga is running at a too nice 'nice' level or
3) The Ekiga SIP server sucks ass ([email protected] is my test site)
Does anyone here have any ideas other than setting up a chroot environment?
---------->>>>>>> Edit
I tried twinkle just to see if SIP clients work. Twinkle works fine with the [email protected] test site. Ekiga is the problem. What am I missing?

Choppy sound through any browser

Hello,
I've been having this problem for a few good months: the sound coming out of Firefox when playing e.g. Youtube videos or MIDI files is choppy, as if only every other sample of the sound were played. This happens even when there aren't many programs opened, so likely not a performance issue.
The problem is not browser-related, as the same thing happens in Chrome and IE. I'm guessing it's from Adobe Flash Player, even though I also get choppy sound when playing sound files which I don't think play through Flash, such as this one.
Playing other sounds, e.g. MP3s using Winamp, works just fine.
I'm running Win XP 32bit on a laptop with 4GB RAM and dual core CPU. I tried to find the Flash version but I'm not sure where to look for it.
Can anyone help? Many thanks!

I think I'd agree that this isn't Flash Player specific on your system, the .ogg file also has problems. When reporting issues with video or audio, it's also helpful to get your system hardware and driver details. Instructions for finding this information can be found here:
dxdiag instructions
How do both of these video files work with Chrome?
HTML5 video
Non-HTML5 video
Thanks,
Chris

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You must restore from a computer.
Get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
Open iTunes.
Select your Apple TV in the Source list, and then click Restore.

Hi Brandon045 and welcome to the community,
Is your problem anything like this thread ?
What antivirus are you running? Any 3rd party firewalls? You might want to open your resource monitor and see what the processor usage is when this happens.

G570 Windows 7 microphone problems (choppy sound when recording)

Good morning,
I have a nice Lenovo G570 with Windows 7 that has been running perfectly for quite a while. I have some old audio tracks (multi-track recordings) that I have done using Audacity on an ancient Windows XP desktop.
I installed a new version of Audacity (64 bit) for Windows 7 from their website and it is fine. It opened up, displayed, and played the old audio tracks without a problem. It even allowed me to remix them as well.
My main problem is using the microphone and wanting to do some musical recordings and multi-track recordings on the Lenovo G570. I plug a Shure microphone (using a 1/8" adapter) into the mic jack on the side of the G570 and start to record. It works fine and allows me to record the first track (keyboards). But yet when I go to record the second track, while listening to the 1st track (i.e. multi-track), the microphone input dies out, gets choppy, fades back in to normal level, fades back out, etc...
I ran a test on the microphone jack and the drivers (Conexant SmartAudio HD)... I plugged my MP3 player into the mic jack using a stereo 1/8" cable and clicked "Listen to this device" and then clicked Apply. One of my MP3 tunes started playing, but was so awful and so choppy, I instantly knew I had a problem.
I downloaded the latest Conexant SmartAudio HD driver from your website - - 8.54.4.51 and installed it and rebooted. I still have the same problem with choppy audio when using the microphone for recording.
What gives? I performed the same test on my wife's Dell laptop (as seen above with my MP3 player), and a Beatles tune came through beautifully. You could hear Paul McCartney clearly singing, "Yesterday... All my troubles seemed so far away..." and it was not choppy at all. Then again, my wife's Dell laptop does not use Conexant SmartAudio HD for sound drivers.
Can you provide any help with this strange issue with using the microphone for recording so it won't come across all choppy?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Thanks for the reply. I got it worked out... I contacted Audacity and went over and over everything them. I downloaded and installed the latest audio drivers from Lenovo too (version 8.54.4.51). On my Lenovo G570 with the Conexant SmartAudio HD package, I had to do into the "recording devices" section of the audio after selecting the microphone (either internal or external - if it's plugged in). Then click on "Advanced" and go down to the checkboxes and uncheck:
Allow applications to take exclusive control of this device
Give exclusive mode applications priority
...and finally...
Enable audio enhancements
Click OK, exit out of it, close everything, reboot...
Sha-zam.. Audacity records perfectly fine without any problems, choppyness, cutting in/out, etc... and on all tracks, while other tracks are playing.

Satellite P100 - choppy sound from DVD and CD

When playing a dvd or cd, the sound is choppy. When playing mp3, the sound is perfect. When playing a game, the sound is fine. What could this be from? I'm using a P-100 with WXP Home edition.
Thanks for any suggestions!

Mac mini choppy sound

hi ive got a problem with my mac mini mid 2009 model, when i plug some headphones in or external speaker into the audio output, the sound is choppy it sort of goes on then off very quickly with like 1sec intervals. its unlistenable. please help

If you bought your mac second hand, you might not have got the install dvd that came with it. Your mac can boot from a dvd or external disk. If you have a mac friend he might be able to help you with that.
When you boot from a clean system on a dvd you can eliminate problems caused by faulty files in the system software.
The other possibility I can think of is hardware. Either in the circuitry or simply in the connector. The intermittent sound you describe does not indicate problems with the plug, but does it crackle if you wriggle the plug?
If your mini has a HDMI plug, you can plug that into a tv and try if the sound is better that way.
