Flash videos stop after about a second of playback ?

ANY flash videos that are played inside Internet explorer OR
firfox stop after about a second of playback, I can drag the slider
to the middle of the video and it will play for another second then
stop. Can anybody HELP. PS I also have NO sound in any FLASH stuff
since installing flash player 9. ALL other video's (WMP,MOV,RM)
play OK WITH sound

Hi ATR
Thanks for the advice and ideas.
I think that the vertical white line basically just shows where the mouse pointer last was relative to the time line, and if you move it from the editing window to the viewing window, it retains its last known position on the time line.
None the less - I implemented your suggestion.
Even if I move the clip further down the timeline, the playback stops about 1-4 secons after I hit play. Even if I move the clip 60 seconds back from the starting line, playback stops while the the playback position is running through the empy space prior to reaching the new starting time of the clip.
If I move the blue cursor that shows the current playing point to anywhere else in the clip, it plays for about 1-4 second and then freezes as before.
Clearly the playback freezes regardless of where it is in the content stream.
I have also discovered a new unexpected feature... The problem seems to be intermittent - if I open a few other clips, and play them, and return to the previous clip, it may run for some time and then freeze. After it has then frozen once, it freezes consistently after 1-4 seconds.
It is also worth noting that it freezes in quick mode too, regardless of timelines.
So there you have it - an intermittent issue.
I have bad to use iMovie in the meantime, which works without issues.
It is beginning to look like a bug in the application...
Thanks again for your suggestions.

Playback in Preview window stops after about 1 second

Hi,
When I hit the spacebar to view the clip in the preview window, the playback stops after about one second each time. It goes smoothly, then after one second, it stops. I can however drag the slider across the time line and there seems to be no problems.
I'm sure I have a powerful enough computer, so I don't think it's something to do with ram (I have 6 gig ram, Vista, triple core processor, good graphics card... brand new computer bought yesterday)
I'd appreciate help with this.
Thanks!

I'm not sure what you mean... I am importing from a DV tape which was recorded onto by a MiniDV Camera. When I plug in the camera to my fire wire, Windows gives me the options of AVI and WMV format (I am not sure which one to go with by the way, but WMV format seems clearer and 5 times smaller too.. why is that?)
Any ideas?
Thanks again
EDIT: Also, I borrowed some video files on the net and premiere does the exact same thing- stopping after one second :/

My MacBook will not play videos. No sound and the video stops after a few seconds.

My Mac book pro will not play videos. No sound and the video stops after a few seconds.

Hello GrahamBIOM,
I understand while viewing a video or listening to some different content, you lose audio, is that correct? I will do all I can to assist you with this issue.
Does the issue occur when you have headphones inserted? If you are not sure, if you have a set of headphones available could you test that please?
Please respond back at your earliest convenience with results.
Thanks

Sound from videos stops after a few seconds on Quicktime

I bought a new Samsung camera and took some videos at a concert. When I put the videos on my MacBook Pro and try to play them on Quicktime, the sound stops after a few seconds. When I try to play them on iMovie or use them in iMovie, not only is there no sound after a few seconds but the sound that is there is sped up.
The audio works fine in VLC but doesn't seem to work with anything else on my Mac. I've tried Perian, Flip4Mac...
Codecs: H.264, AAC
Help?

I've seen this issue in the past. I think it is connected to the operating system itself. I say this because I reinstalled the os using itunes and then restored a backup. Then garageband started behaving again. Then the issue came back - after I did an os update. So I'd try reverting back to a fresh version of the latest os, and then restoring your apps using a backup.
Hope it helps

Flash Viedo Stops after 8 - 9 seconds

I am running Windows 7 64bit, IE 9 32 and 64bit, Firefox 18.0, and Flash 11.5.502.146. I have done TS, reinstalled Java, Flash, applied all updates, flash test videos play correctly. However, in my online course, the embedded flash videos will only play for 8-9 seconds and then stop (no crash). Any ideas? I have contacted the tech support for the online program and they state the videos run correctly when viewed from my profile. Any other ideas?

I download exclusively from itunes and I have been having issues with the music stopping after about 25 seconds either skipping to the next song or just going silent and still moving as if it is playing? how do i fix this?

I have an ipod nano, classic and Iphone4s...i download itunes, it says it is completely downloaded, i go to play it either on my pc or on one of my devices and it plays about 24 seconds of the song and skips to the next song. Sometimes it continues to "play" as in the timer is still moving but there is no sound or picture...how do i fix this? It is really frustrating...i let it go with one or 2 songs but when it is everything I download any more I'm getting fed up. I tried going into the info on the song and options and making sure it didn't have the stop time changed (the solution that apple support gave me) Any solutions? I want to actually listen to the music I download!!!

Adobe Reader xi stops after about ten seconds.

I have several re books which of late are impossible to use because the program cuts out. A little window announces: 'Adobe Reader has stopped working. The explanation it fives is: A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. I re-downloaded the Reader in the hope it would eliminate the cause of the error to no avail.

Can you check the Event Viewer if you can find any more details about the crash?

HT1725 I downloaded an album from iTunes last night and some songs won't play through to the end. One stops after about 34 seconds and one stops after about 9 seconds every time. I am running the most up-to-date version of iTunes for Windows

The album was Grateful Dead Sunshine Daydream Concert 8/27/72. Songs #11 and #12 start but don't finish on either my library or the ipod. There may be others too, but these two I noticed. The downloads were completed ok, the songs sync'ed ok and they appear to be the right length. I thought maybe I need to re-download them but how do you do that once they are purchased? Is there another issue? Thanks for your help

Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting the incomplete tracsk from your iTunes library and redownload them via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes.
If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if they re-download with the same problem then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

Problem when exporting movie, video stops after 2 minutes

I set up a Project containing both images and videos. They were all shot using a digital camera (Canon SD400).
When I export the 5 minute movie, around 2 minutes the video freezes, but the music (from an mp3 file) keeps playing. At 2 minutes one of the videos start to play and the video has a little yellow button showing on it in the timeline. None of the other videos have this little yellow button, although I am not convinced that this is the one causing the problem. Here is an image of it:

Any ideas why the video playback would stop when I export it? It plays fine in iMovie when I preview the project, but when exporting, the video playback stops.
Thanks!

I have this very same problem. All 640x480 clips shot with a Canon SD550. iMovie 5 will play back everything fine in iMovie, but once I export the file using H.264 or MPEG-4, the video stops after about 30 seconds (of the 3 and half minutes of the video). The music still plays, but the video has not exported properly (and it shows in the file size).
What WILL work is if you export it to web, but I can't use that. I need it exported at its full quality. (Also will not work, by the way.) But, again, it plays in iMovie just fine. I even tried exporting from the timeline file (with the reference media files) in the iMovie file package—but I get the exact same results.
Quite frustrating considering it works in iMovie just fine. Any other ideas, folks?
System/Software: MacBook Pro 2.0GHz, 1 GB, 256 X1600. Latest Tiger, latest QuickTime, latest iMovie HD.

After about 30 seconds, my sound is stopping during playback.

I've tried to export my video for use on Computers, but everytime I do, the playback stops after about 30 seconds of playing no matter if I start from the beginning of the video, or click ahead to start from the middle on Windows Media Player. I'm using Adobe Premiere Elements 12. Please help me figure this out - it is so frustrating.

What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 12 installed on?
Before export, how does the Timeline play back in the Edit area monitor (video and audio)?
What is your export - mp4, .mov, wmv, flv, .avi etc....? Have you tried other players, like the VLC player?
But, let us start at the beginning....
What are the properties of your source media? What is the brand/model/settings for the camera that recorded the source?
How are you getting that source into the Premiere Elements project and what are you or the program setting as the project preset. See Edit Menu/Project Settings/General and the readings for Editing Mode, Timebase, Frame Size, and Pixel Aspect Ratio (even if they look grayed out).
The project preset description should match the properties of your source.
Now for the export...what are you selecting under Publish+Share/assumed Computer/. And what are you setting as the preset for your choice? Are you using the default settings for the preset or are you customizing them under the Advanced Button/Video Tab and Audio Tab?
Please supply more details. If any questions or need clarification, please do not hesitate to ask.
Thanks.

Web player randomly cut off sound and stop playing after about 5 seconds.

My web player cut off the sound and stops after about 5 seconds. The only way to get it to work again without refreshing the page it to select a different time periode in the time bar. Also it happens more often at the first 25% of the movie.
I am using safari with add block on a Macbook pro retina (if this helps with the issue).
What can I do to solve this.

I suspect you are running into the following bug:
Flash Player 11.7 Sound Playback Bug

Canon Rebel T5i automatically stops recording after about 6 seconds. How can I disable or fix this?

I just got a Canon Rebel T5i and I was testing out the video and several times it will automatically stop recording after about 6 seconds. How can I fix or disable this?

And while buying said faster card... buy a REPUTABLE brand from a reputable vendor. I've come to the conclusion that there are a lot of fly-by-nights making cards that are not as fast as they claim to be.
Reputable vendors are companies like Sandisk and Lexar. But as an SD card is just a plastic card with a sticker on it, and stickers are pretty easy to fake, buy the card from a vendor you can trust is not selling fakes.
This is one item where it is probably not a good idea to try to save money by finding the cheapest deal you can find on the Internet.

When recording a slideshow, why does audio stop recording after about 30 seconds even though slides and presentation continues?

I'm doing everything the same and have made many successful slideshow recordings using Keynote, but since updating the Yosemite and then updating Keynote the audio just stops recording after about 30 seconds.
The slides keep on changing and recording the video, but after 30 seconds the audio stops recording even though it seems to be registering the sound and the mic is not muted in Keynote.
Is there some change or new setting I am not aware of that needs to be altered?
Any advice would be helpful as I need to record a lot of presentations.
OS X Yosemite version 10.10
Keynote version 6.5
MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013)
2.6 GHz Intel Core i7
16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Intel Iris Pro 1536 MB

I can't imagine this will work as the the application is tied into a specific computer and user ID to prevent unauthorised use of single use applications. Copying over has not worked with previous versions of Keynote.
It worked for me. I guess it could be because we bought our Macs together and have home sharing or something. Either way, I'm running Yosemite but with Keynote 6.2.2. and not updating again until Apple do something about this bug.

Videos stop after few seconds then continue

My system is W7 Home Premium 32 bit and IE 8
Just recently I find that when I try to play a video clip (generally BBC News
but also others) the rotating circle of dots displays whilst the video is loading
but it then plays (sound and vision) for only a few seconds then stops for about
10 seconds and then resumes playing right through to the end. If I click on
'play again' it will play the complete video without any interruption.
At first I thought this was my system malfunctioning, but having set up a laptop
for a friend (using W7 Home Premium 63 bit and IE 8) the same thing is happening.
I am posting to this forum as it seems that many video problems are down to
aspects/settings of Flash Player.
All suggestions to resolve this problem greatly appreciated.

Hi, I am glad you were able to get into the BBC site. You may probably know that the BBC are
forbidden to broadcast commercial advertisements in the UK, but I understand they are allowed
to do so for some of their foreign broadcasts - to recoup some of their expenses.
It occurs to me that because the news video was preceded by an advertisement, the video had
enough time to completely download before it started to play. Does that sound reasonable?
I get the feeling that my problem is concerned with buffering and the video is starting to play before
it is completely downloaded; as I said previously, replaying the video (when the whole file is presumably
in memory) it plays right through without interruption.
As I stated in my first post, viewing videos on my friend's laptop is also having the same problem.
Instead of connecting the laptop into a network, I have disconnected my own desktop Ethernet
connection from my modem and then connected the laptop via the Ethernet. That means that the
common things to both systems are the modem and the Internet connection to my ISP, which
makes me wonder if there is a problem with the modem? It will be interesting to see what happens
when I take the laptop back to him and connect via his router.
Having checked the Shockwave Flash Object I was surprised to find it is version 10.0.045.2
whereas Adobe's 'about' page informs me that I have version 10.1.102.64 of Adobe Flash Player
installed. I understand that Shockwave is installed as part of Flash Player so do not understand
the discrepancy between versions. Could the different versions cause a conflict? However
my friend's laptop shows 10.1.102.64 for Shockwave and Flash Player.
The files in the Flash folder are - Flash101.ocx, Flash Install.log, FlashUtil101_ActiveX.dll
FlashUtil101_ActiveX.exe and install.log
With regards to streaming another site I go to is EarthCam - http://www.earthcam.com/usa/newyork/timessquare/
and have no problems watching this.
Hope you may be able to deduce something from all of the above
Thanks
