How to stop YouTube audio from popping and crackling

running latest version of Firefox on desktop PC
OS Win 7 Home Premium 64bit (recently migrated from Win XP Pro SP3 32 bit
Audio on YouTube videos pops and crackles; does it all the time when video is full screen... does it with small screen when mouse pointer is moving
Tried running Firefox in safe mode... no joy.. still popping.
Would appreciate a solution.
By the way this problem does not happen with Chrome... but Chrome is getting so bloated with features I prefer to use Firefox.
Thanks

You can check for problems with current Shockwave Flash plugin versions and try this:
*check for updates for your graphics drive drivers<br>https://support.mozilla.org/kb/upgrade-graphics-drivers-use-hardware-acceleration
*disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Flash 11.3+ on Windows Vista and later)
*disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin

  • How to stop youtube videos from playing after restart

    every time I restart firefox (currently 24.1.1 or 14.0.1) any tabs with youtube videos start playing and I have to wait until after restart is complete before I can find it/them.
    is there a way to stop this?

    I don't know of a way to stop auto-play on restart only. There are some extensions that can stop auto-play in general (i.e., all the time). I haven't tried any of them myself, but it looks as though these might help:

  • I can not stop YouTube links from autoplaying and buffering

    Embedded Youtube links start to Buffer and Play automatically, I can find no way to stop this!! This is making me very angry as it chew up unnecessary amounts of my 4gig a month data, and can also sound very bad if several start to play at once or over what I am listening to by choice!!!
    I have not been able to find anything in settings, add ons or scripts in greasemonkey that can stop this!!
    Is there any solution to this??

    See this support article. <br />

    Also, make sure that you don't have another popup blocker installed, like as part of a security suite, that might be blocking popups before they even get to Firefox.

  • How to stop a process from running and display a message

    I have a button that inserts data into a table based on bind variable selected on the page. I would like to add code to that button that will check to see if certain data already exists in the table, for that bind variable, and if that data already exists, stop the process and display a message that says "you have already inserted that information - bla bla bla". If not, continue inserting. What would be the best way to do this?
    Currently, the button is a plsql that inserts the data.
    Any help or examples would be greatly appreciated!

    Use a validation process for that. If the validation fails (data exists) the processes will not be run. If it doesn't then the processing will continue.

  • How do I route audio from a YouTube video to AU Lab using SoundFlower so that I can capture the YouTube video's sound stream?

    How do I route audio from a YouTube video to AU Lab using SoundFlower so that I can capture the YouTube video's sound stream?

    Attach camera via USB or put card in card reader.
    Go to FCP, and go to the Log and TRANSFER window.
    If FCP recognizes the card, you will see your clips listed on the left.
    You can view them, set Ins and Outs, and import just what you want.
    Once you choose a section of video and import it, FCP converts (transcodes) from its original camera format to Apple ProRes422 - a more edit friendly video file.

  • Can anyone please tell me how to stop email previews from appearing on my screen. I have turned off the preview option in settings on both my ipad and iphone, but they still keep appearing.  Thanks

    works ok on mine - (5, 7.1.1).  Try again.  with previews set to none, mine shows the sender and the subject line only.  (you cannot get rid of the subject)    with the other settings, you get the sender, subject line and however many lines you selected.

  • How do I play audio from my headphone jack and internal speakers?

    How do I play audio from my headphone jack and internal speakers at the same time ? I have a splitter for my audio jack so that when i connect up my second monitor I can have it so it also plays audio as well as anything else i have connected into the jack but how do i let the internal speakers emit sound at the same time?

    Hello,
    If you mean the internal speakers in your Mac, you can't play audio through them at the same time you have anything plugged into the headphone jack. When you plug something into the headphone jack, it disconnects the internal speakers.

  • How to stop Time Machine from backing up Temp Files?

    Hi folks!
    I am trying to find out how to stop Time Machine from constantly backing up 'useless' temporary files accumulated from web browsing? Although I don't change or add large files to my HD, Time Machine backs up hundreds of MBs every hour. Those file amounts make sense when I consider that I browse a lot to YouTube, SoundCloud, etc to watch videos or listen to music - I just don't want them to be backed up.
    Under Time Machine Options I already excluded the following items from backups:
    ~/Library/Caches
    /Library/Caches
    ~/Downloads
    But even though I did this weeks ago, Time Machine stills finds large files to be backed up every hour and my only guess is that I am still missing a location where either Safari or Firefox - the two web browsers I use - store temporary files.
    Can you help?
    Thanks a lot in advance!

    Are you sure you need that? There are no viruses that run on OSX. None. Zip. Zero.
    If you're running Windoze on your Mac, that's the same as running it on a PC, so it needs all the same anti-everything stuff you'd use on a PC.
    There is some "malware," such as Trojans, for Macs, though. But (unlike viruses that can get onto your system without your knowledge), you must approve their installation (via your Admin password) and/or operation (via the "This application was downloaded from the internet ..." prompt).
    Appropriately enough, some of these Trojans are included in pirated versions of Apple software, such as iWork!
    For the gory details, see Thomas Reed's [Mac Virus Guide|http://www.reedcorner.net/thomas/guides/macvirus].
    Thanks a lot again!
    You're quite welcome, and thanks for posting back.

  • How to stop the dock from showing all hidden images when hiding then showing applications

    How to stop the dock from showing all hidden images when hiding then showing applications

    It's not really something to snap a screen shot of. I believe it would need to be a video clip. For instance, when I am working on multiple images in Photoshop, I often need many images open at the same time, but I only have one image viewable and active. The hero image is active on screen while I hide the other images in the dock by hitting the yellow - button on the images. Then I "Hide" Photoshop to do something in the Finder. When I go back to Photoshop, every image that is hidden in the dock will pop open again in the active window, not just the image I was currently working on. I want these images to stay in the dock until I need them, no matter how many times I Hide the Show Photoshop.

  • How can I stream audio from Apple TV 2 to Airport Express speakers.

    how can I stream audio from Apple TV 2 to Airport Express speakers.
    I have LCD projector on one wall and connected ATV to it via HDMI.
    Speakers on the other wall and connected to APXpress.

    To be honest the times we've wanted to have music from more than one set of speakers, I've usually used my mac's iTunes library and controlled it either from the mac or from my phone, since they're not really the times we have any TV on anyway. I've tested AirTunes from the Apple TV but can't recall whether it worked with content from a streaming library.
    Now I've got something to do.

  • How to stop the Dialog from being dragged

    I was hoping that someone could tell me when calling a Dialog from Jframe, a how to stop the Dialog from being dragged
    while a dialog is showing.
    When it is visible I can still click and drag the Dialog
    I want to set it so you can not drag it until the dialog has be closed.

    If you don't have access to the parent frame, a "hack" that usually works:
    Frame frame = Frame.getFrames()[0];
    if (null != frame && frame instanceof JFrame){
    JFrame jf = (JFrame)frame;
    JDialog jd = new JDialog(jf, "title");
    ... code here ...
    As each JFrame (or Frame) is opened, its stored in the array of Frames that you can get. Same thing with Dialog.getDialogs(). Almost always, at least so far for me I've never had this problem, the [0] index is the main window opened, or the parent/top frame. I'd put the check in there to be safe and make sure its a JFrame and usually you'll only have the one JFrame.

  • How to stop  the users from changing the Decimal in SAP

    How  to stop  the users from changing User Profile

    Hai,
    It is not possible to restrict SU3 to display, because it has only S_TCODE has the authorization object.
    If you really want to restrict users from changing their profile you have to remove the SU3 access and give SU1 or SU2 which gives access only to Personnel details and Parameters.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to stop the Calendar from editing your input?

    How to stop the Calendar from editing your input?

    I am constantly finding that Calendar Version 8.0 thinks it knows what I want to type but it incorrectly takes numbers and days and times out of my input and changes my appointments. I hate this new supposedly "smart" feature. Even when I edit my event correctly a second or third time it rewrites my input incorrectly again. I have to use my iPhone to override the annoying editing on my mac. I am ready to find a new calendar program unless Apple allows users to input what they want without their information being incorrectly edited.
