Hi mikefrompoland,
For more information about 5.1 Surround Sound in iTunes, you may find the following article helpful (it is primarily aimed at Mac users, but the settings in Windows should be similar):

Note: For surround sound to work, the content being played must be encoded to support it.

  • Cant play you tube videos

    Hi guys i am using nokia c2-01 and i am unable to play the you tube videos on my handset . And i am using vodafone india karnataka network . Pls come ur with a great solution

    Go to menu>settings>configuration>personal configuration settings. In that select options and add new and select streaming. Keep whatever default values are there and save it. Once its saved select it and activate it from options. Now try streaming you tube videos. If still not working, try installing you tube mobile app as well.

  • Monitor won't enter power save after playing You Tube videos...

    Hi
    An issue has  developed on my system in the last couple of months for which, after having done  a lot of research and testing, a solution has not been found. After playing  a video in You Tube, my monitor won't go into power save mode after the  prescribed time. It tries to go off for a second and the screen goes blank but  then comes straight on again. This happens after playing the You Tube videos in  Firefox, Google Chrome and Internet Explorer. I am running Windows XP  Professional and I have the latest version of Adobe Flashplayer installed,  the latest graphics card drivers, the latest version of direct x 9.0c.
    To clear this error, I have to go into my XP  power schemes settings and change it to another power scheme and then change it  back to my default power scheme. However, as soon as I play another you tube  video the same problem re-occurs.
    I have tried turning off hardware acceleration but this makes no difference. My graphics card is a Gigabyte gv-nx86t512h: http://uk.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=2604#ov
    This never used to happen  until recently. It seems that there is something with the Flashplayer that is  not compatible with Firefox, Chrome, Internet Explorer etc.
    Any ideas as to what may be  causing this and what can be done to overcome it would be greatly appreciated as  it is a real nuisance.
    Many  thanks.

    thanks for your suggestions.
    i found the solution/workaround from somone else on the adobe forums:
    Go to control  panel, display, screen saver, choose a random screen saver, set a long time  (i.e. 60 min, but always longer than your monitor shut off time), then select no  screen saver, and save! Simple as that…

  • Why won't You Tube Videos Load/Play?

    My 10 year old daughter has an ipad mini and has been able to watch You Tube videos with no problem.  Now, all of a sudden, they won't load or if they load, they don't play.  Can anyone tell me why this might happen?  Everything else works fine, it's just this.

  • You Tube videos won't play using FireFox 12

    Fire Fox will not play YouTube videos. When I go to the site, I see just a black box with no error messages. The video never loads. I have uninstalled flash player and re-installed with no success in playing you tube videos. IE will play you tube videos! I have disabled all anti-virus, firewall, plugins, etc and FireFox still will NOT play YouTube videos. Please help!

    This still did not work. I have noticed that FireFox will not play any video on any website. I am able to play all video using IE browser.

  • Trouble playing You Tube video on iPad 2 - stops/starts - can't get through a single video. HELP.

    I have the iPad 2 Wi-Fi + 3G but it's not currently on my Verizon plan - only connects via home wireless internet.  I'm confused as to why I've never been able to successfully play/view any kind of video via the internet?  The video loads and begins to play...but about 10 seconds in...it hangs up and then I have to play a cat and mouse game of pause/play to get it to 'load' a little bit more...and finally about 60 seconds worth I throw in the towel and head for the iPhone or my Mac.  So what gives?  My iPad does so much...even plays videos I TAKE.  Why won't it play You Tube videos???!!!  Is that Icon on my Home Screen just to taunt me and store the videos I'll never be able to view more than 10 seconds??? 
    Please help guide me to the simple fix.

    Try viewing youtube from the browser and going to youtube.com rather than using the YouTube app.
    Also, try at different times of day and report back. Where I am, by 7pm the cable modem slows down considerably with all the Netflix viewing. I swear Comcast is throttling bandwidth for video streaming!

  • Why is Firefox crashing when I am playing You Tube favorites playlists and other You Tube videos?

    Lately within the last 2-3 weeks I have had a lot of crashes on my computer when I am running Firefox version 3.6.3 and trying to watch You Tube videos. It seems to only crash when I am on You Tube. It crashes even quicker when I am on Internet Explorer or Google Chrome. I have installed the latest version of Adobe Flashplayer recently. I never had trouble watching You Tube videos until recently. The You Tube site will open, I sign in, and then I go to my subscriptions or favorites and select a video. It will begin to play, get a minute or so in, and then I get the error message that it's crashed.
    == Crash ID(s) ==
    ID: 0fbb30ce-0fdd-4423-9aa3-3f8fe2100528 Signature: cabac_mb_skip

    I am not sure I did this right. This is what I did: right-mouse clicked on the desktop, whent to properties, went to display properties, went to settings, clicked on advanced tab, and then clicked on troubleshooting tab. There I drug the hardware acceleration slider to the left to disable it, clicked ok twice as directed, restarted the computer and then I couldn't get firefox to open at all, but I went to internet explorer and got on you tube and tried to watch a video, but it crashed again.
    So I don't think that worked. I couldn't figure out how to disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin, but did it on the desktop instead. Are there different steps I need to take to accomplish this?
    Thank you!

  • No sound when playing you tube videos

    recently the sound stopped playing with the you tube videos.
    The sound for other stuff works find, ads from a newspaper, itunes, web sites, just you tube.
    Any advice as to where to look in you tube or a plug in that you tube requires in order to play the audio.
    Again the video plays fine.
    Thanks

    You can look through this for a couple of other suggestions.
    iOS: Troubleshooting apps purchased from the App Store
    The article will talk about closing the app, deleting the app and reinstalling it and resetting/rebooting the iPad like I suggested. Sometimes another app could be causing a conflict, so you might want to try closing all apps and restart the iPad. Closing apps is covered in the article.
    One other thing that you could try is Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will not lose any data, but you will have to enter all of the device settings again.

  • When I try to play a You Tube video in Safari it tells me my version is no longer supported and I should download a newer version of Safari. I have OSX10.8.5, and my Safari is 6.2.3, and apparently it's up to date. What's going on?
