Installed 10.5 which ruined audio playback,

nstalled 10.5 which ruined audio playback, so reverted back to 10.4, this cured that fault but is still not so good, so which was the best version to use with xp, bearing in mind i have podcast , movies and itunes u on there.

Yes, the main HD is still visible. Your answer actually sounds spot on. I havent had time to get on my system for several days with other things going on with work right now, but hope to work on it this week/weekend.
I will try to startup from the main HD and see where it goes. Thank you for the response.
I will reply back here when I get some info....

  • Since installing iTunes 7.3, all audio playback on CD/DVD drive skips

    Hi,
    I am running Windows XP home edition, and have recently downloaded iTunes 7.3.
    Since installing iTunes, all audio playback via my CD/DVD skips/stutters. This occurs in all media playes, Windows Media, Sonic DVD etc. Audio files stored on the hard drive play back fine through these same programs. So far I have updated firmware and drivers for my CD/DVD drive and sound card.
    I have looked on this site and Dells, and cant find any solutions as to what the problem may be.
    Can anyone help?
    Cheers
    Aidan

    One thing you could try is to check your computer manufactures site to see if there is a firmware update for your CD drive.
    Apple offer this help on this:

  • Bugged audio playback? When I start working with more than 1 audio track.

    Hi!
    I have been using premiere elements 12 for editing FullHD videos.
    Brand new for me just bought it like 2 weeks ago.
    Now during the last couple weeks I have had this MAJOR proglem with editing the audio.
    This problem is headache and turns my simple editing into almost impossibilites.
    I have had this problem with all my projects. _ALL_
    Usually the problem seems to appear when I want to start working with several audio tracks.
    At somepoint my projects just get ruined, I simply cannot hear the audio tracks.
    The audio starts to disapear randomly from all the audio tracks.
    It is not only playback problem. When I exported the video, the audio was partly missing, same as the project.
    I have tried to look help on forums and search all what I could find, but havent been able to solve this.
    Small fix has slightly helped:
    I export audio to single track and bring it back to project. This works but I still usually have more editing to do.
    I simply cannot understand why the playback disapears, I fear it is a bug.
    I found lot of earlier version problems on people with similar type of problems, but no help for this version of program.
    To solve the matter I have changed my audio setting in PE12.
    Tried Premiere Elements WDM Sound and ASIO4ALL V2, but same problem on both.
    I have looked up that my audio playback device and PE12 matches, and are not muted, and volumes maxed.
    I have deleted my C:\ appdata\roaming\adobe  premiere elements & premiere elements 12 folder preferences.. not helping..
    I press the update pretty much everyday hoping for new version.. But yes, program keeps telling me its the latest.
    I usually only work with 3 audio track maxinum. And I am doing really the most basic stuff here..
    I have set all my audios to foreground and it has given me best results, but it does not seem to take the problem away as at somepoint randomly my audio playback is missing again, randomly across the playback.
    Please anyone? I am feeling hopeless here.
    Info on my computer:
    Operating system: Win7
    Processor: AMD Phenom(tm) x4 955 processor 3.20 GHz

    First of all, thank you for replying my message!
    I will go and try to answer best I can.

    What are you or the program setting as the project preset in the new project dialog. See Edit Menu/Project Settings/General and its Editing Mode, Timebase, and Frame Size readings.
    I opened new project and this is what i got:
    Editing mode: HD 1080i
    Timebase: 25,00 frames/second
    Frame size: 1920 x1080
    Audio is 48000 Hz
    (I dont know how to change these, btw. Program don't seem to let me change editing mode.
    I also looked up my most recent project and found these settings:
    Editing Mode: DSLR
    Timebase: 30,00 frames/second
    Frame size: 1920 x1080
    ..and same audio settings
    Do the problems persist if you start a new project? Do you find the audio problems develop when the Timeline content is fairly well developed or can the problems occur when there a minimal amount of content of those tracks? Let us look at the size and duration of this project.
    Yes, I have had this problem with all my projects. Sometimes it goes away tho, just enough for me to work bit more. My work progress usually starts by clipping the video material, like 1h material to 8minutes in clips. After that I want to work with audio tracks, and here problems start! When I start working with more than 1 track, so the problem is at later stage. To fix the problem a small fix I have used, I export audio like music and effects tracks together to 1 wav and bring it back. After that, I start working with narrate track. To describe the problem with audio:
    Audio Randomly starts to disapear when I playback, and can also be gone if I export the video out.
    My source videos total size are usually within 80Gb max limit and audio edit material 300mb total.
    In my last project my biggest source video was 47GB and leingth of 1h 4m, in addition to that I had 3 smaller videos, sizes of 1GB, 1,54GB and 300MB.
    Is there any evidence that you are accidentially moving the audio track rubberband to alter the audio volume. That rubberband is the orange line that runs horizontally through the middle of the audio clip when you are looking at the wave form display style of that audio track. The rubberband represents audio volume.
    No, audio volumes might have been adjusted in my tracks but they are present. The problem is usually like ~2-5seconds, a random audio track can be heard (like music or narrate) or just no sounds at all. This makes it very difficult to work with the audio. Also I gotta say that this problem starts by simply having the 2-3 audio tracks.. In my recent project the only adjustment I used to edit the audio was fade in/out.
    I don't have any other audio problems with any other programs.
    I am more than happy to provide more information if needed. I hope this information helps.
    In addition I can say that when I close Adobe Premiere Elements 12, it crashes. No idea why.
    I have also looked up my firewall settings, anything involved adobe and premiere..
    In addition some effects like HD text templates make "Adobe Media Core CS6" crash. I tend to just not use em, or if I need em, I add em at end of the edits.
    I hope this helps, I would really like to solve this problem.
    Thank you alot for taking the time to answer! I welcome anyone to help mee too! Please giev links to similar problems too. Thank you everybody!

  • Randomly Pausing Audio Playback/Restoring Question

    My iPhone 3G will on it's own, randomly pause audio playback (Pandora, iPod) when a 3.5 mm jack is plugged in, this takes any-wear from 10 secs to 30 mins, and this never happens when I use Apple OEM iPhone headphones. I went to an Apple store and the proposed resolution was to restore my iPhone as new. So my first question is: if I restore my iPhone as new, load music and a few apps on it and this does not fix the problem, can I restore my iPhone to the current state that has all my apps and data? My other question is, does anyone else have this problem?
    Thanks!
    -Mike

    I don't have this problem.
    But your question about restoring your phone to it's current state, yes. When you plug your iPhone into iTunes, right click on the phone in the column on the left and select "backup phone". (That is if iTunes doesn't automatically start syncing/backing up.) After that you perform a restore which erases the phones and updates to the current version. At that point, iTunes should prompt you to install the backup.

  • Audio playback problems in Safari since Mavericks upgrade

    I've been having intermittent audio problems in Safari ever since upgrading to Mavericks on my iMac.
    Google Play Music doesn't make any sound at all in Safari. Works fine in Firefox.
    Downloading audio clips/mp3 playback in Safari has intermittent clicks/pops & sounds terrible.
    Tried installing latest version of Flash player...no help.
    Everything used to be fine before upgrading to Mavericks.
    What gives?

    I did the following and got it working again....unfortunately, I'm not sure which action specifically fixed the problem, because I did a few at the same time.
    From Google Support: 
    "Alternatively, you may enable HTML 5 audio without the need for flash by clicking on the gear icon in the upper right corner and selecting 'Music Labs'. From here, you may click the radial 'Enabled' button to the right of the HTML 5 description.(Note: You must be using Chrome, Safari 3.1+ or IE 9+) 
    Clearing your browser's history and cache has been reported as solving this issue."
    Works fine now.
    Note: Although Google Play Music is working now, MP3 audio playback directly through the Safari browser still sounds clicky/poppy. This issue doesn't happen when using Firefox.

  • Windows 7 (64bit)  itunes choppy stuttering audio playback

    Hi All,
    I'm new to these forums so apologise in advance if this topic has been covered already....
    I recently upgraded my Dell to Windows 7 64 bit and also upgraded iTunes/ QuickTime to the 64 bit version which resulted in audio playback in iTunes stuttering every few seconds. I waited for the latest release thinking it must be a bug which apple are addressing. Just installed it (ver. 10.1.056) but the problems is still there. I’ve tweaked quick time, installed the newest possible audio drivers, for my soundcard nothing makes any difference. If i use windows media player to play my music its absolutely fine , no stuttering , no problems at all. So why can't apple get their act together?
    Has anyone else experienced this problem or found a fix? if so please get in touch.
    Thanks for reading
    Dave

    I have a similar problem. I recently got a new laptop with Windows 7 64-Bit. I've started to rebuild my iTunes library and it was all going well. However, I noticed a lot of my files are starting to loop the first second or so of the intro for around 6 seconds before the song plays normally. At the time, I didn't think of this as a problem, but the exact same looping occurs on the iPod itself on the same files, at the same time, everytime.
    After deleting the broken files and getting new versions of the same songs, I decided to test them in Windows Media Player first and there was no intro looping. Assuming all was well, I added these files to iTunes, tidied up the song info, added album art and then played the tracks to see if the looping was still gone. Some of the tracks were fine, but others had developed the intro looping. Playing these same files in Windows Media Player again, after running them throgh iTunes, also now has the looping which it previously did not.
    iTunes seems to be destroying my files. Is there any way to fix this?

  • Multiple audio playback devices

    I have just built a system using the K7N2-L mainboard and am having a problem with multiple audio playback devices.
    Actually I have TWO problems, which are probably unrelated.
    I have a 5.1 speaker system connected to the onboard audio and an external USB DAC for playback through a hi-fi system.  
    The first problem is that the USB audio device is only recognised if it's plugged in after the system is booted.  If it's already attached when I power up, it appears not to be properly installed.
    The second problem is that when I use the Sounds and Multimedia control panel to switch audio devices (Windows 2000 pro) playback continues through whichever device was used first.  In order to switch, I have to reboot the computer.
    Another system I built using an Epox nforce board does not have this second problem, although it does have the first.  With the Epox board, I can even play through both devices simultaneously.

    I gathered this from the handbrake side of things:
    You can also combine Pro Logic II and AC3 pass-through. This will give you a file that will play anywhere from QuickTime to VLC to the iPhone (using the AAC Pro Logic II track) and play in true surround sound on an AppleTV or in Perian. It is the best of both worlds, and it is only possible in the .mp4 and .mkv containers. Again, MP4 file names must, confusingly, end in .m4v for QuickTimeto read them. To use this hybrid format, in the Audio tab, set the first audio track to be the track you want, in AAC sound. Then set the second track to also use the same source track, and select AC3 pass-through."
    I think this is what will ultimately help me. I will let you know.
    the answer was righ under my nose.
    Thank you!

  • Having random crashes during audio playback.

    Greetings,
    I seem to be having some issues with crashing during audio playback.  Here are my specs:
    MSI K8N Neo2 Plat  (1.B BIOS)
    AMD Athlon 64 3500+ (Winchester)
    4x512 Corsair TWINX 1024 3200C2PT (Bought at seperate times, but revisions are almost exact and they run stable)
    NVIDIA GeForce 6800
    Creative Audigy 2 ZS
    Forton Source FSP 400W
    It seems to do the same thing every time.  The audio will start skipping (in more than 1 media player) and after no BSOD, the computer will reboot itself.  I have it set to show a BSOD as well.  It has even started to ask to check my D: drive for errors after this.
    The problem first started to occur after a couple of things.  I recently updated my bios to the 1.B version as stated.  And a week or so ago I did a fresh install of Windows.  The sound was working fine with the new BIOS, but now with the new Windows install it has had issues.  Are there any known issues with the Audigy2 ZS and the new 1.B BIOS that I just didn't experience before?  Granted, I did not have my old install of Windows long under the new 1.B BIOS.
    At this moment I am using the AC97 onboard audio to see if that crashes as well, and just to hopefully have the random crashes stop happening.  I know there are quite a few avenues to take, I am just looking for opinions on which would be the best one.  Reflash the bios to an older version?  Try the Audigy2 in a different PCI slot? (I had it in the 2nd to bottom as the NIC is plugged into the orange PCI)  Contact Creative for an RMA or repair of the card?  I only bought it on December 16th, so it's fairly new.  Something else I am maybe missing?  A BIOS or Windows setting?
    Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.  If I need to provide any more info, please say so and I will promptly.
    Thanks.

    I have the same MB and CPU but I am using the onboard sound and have not had any problems with that.
    I can recommand that you bump up your memory voltage to 2.6~2.7 and loosen up your memory timings to something like 2.5-5-5-8-2T.
    Then remove all drivers from your Audigy, disable your onboard sound and remove those drivers, shut down and install your Audigy and boot up allowing Windows to find your new hardware and then install the drivers.

  • Performance hit in audio playback in Solaris 10

    Hi,
    I've noticed while trying out the Solaris 10 beta 72 that the audio playback quality took a major hit since Solaris 9. I was hoping that this would go away in the Solaris 10 release, but it's not the case.
    If I try to play an .mp3 file with mpg123 or even audioplay an .au file, there are regular clicks in the playback, audible about twice per second. Booting into Solaris 9, the audio playback is perfect.
    My intuition tells me that the integration of DTrace into the kernel is the culprit, but of course, I have no proof. Can anyone think of a way to test this theory? Can DTrace be disabled? Maybe DTrace can be used to figure out what's going on?

  • AIR + Android audio playback in background

    Hello everbody,
    at the moment I am evaluating the realisation auf a radioplayer using a rtmp stream for android devices.
    There are two question for which I could not find any advices or resoltions.
    My questions are:
    1.) Is it possible to play/continue an audiostream, even if the app itself is pushed into background?
    2.) How are updates handled for apps in Android-Store? Is it the same as with the updateroutine for AIR on Desktops?
    Thanks in advance for your answers.

    but anyway thanks for your response!

  • X201 hangs and makes noises during audio playback

    Hello, I've a 3249CTO X201 with 8g of ram and an updated Hdd (seagate momentus xt 500gb with 4gb ssd).
    I had issues with the Hdd that where partially resolved with a seagate firmware update (the hdd kept going from standby to active mode without apparent reason and it was assumed to be a too agressive power saving mode...)
    Anyway, my issue here is the annoying chirping sound coming out the speakers during any audio playback (online audio streams, films, mp3, youtube... you name it!) anytime the Hdd is accessed.
    It even seems like everything just hangs for anywhere between 0 and 2 seconds at the exact same time.
    It only happens when on battery and using w7 pro 64bit. If I use ubuntu from my 8g sdhc card, it never occurs (even if I use chrome on both and watching the exact same youtube video). (NOTE that I did access the hdd from ubuntu to prove my point...)
    I think it is related to the power gestion of the system and I've tried a countless serie of different power management settings. It affect the frequency of the episodes (would occur more or less often) but it still happens.
    When plugged in, it never occurs....
    If it doesn't occur under ubuntu (I mean never!), it should not be hardware related, however the w7 way of managing power is different so I tend to think there IS a hardware issue (weakness) wich might be highligted by the OS.
    Anybody has a good lead on this?

    Hello Fafaneboat,
    It might be an issue with firmware of your system, I would like to suggest you please visit the below mentioned web link to download and install few drivers according to your Operating System.

  • HTML5 Audio Playback issue from firefox 33 and above.

    I have created an application which was working just fine till firefox 32. It is still working fine in firefox 32. But from firefox 33 and above, the audio playback does not start intermittently.
    I tried to debug and find the problem further. What I observed is that the html5 audio element in firefox 33 and above does not dispatch 'readyState' event as 4 which is needed to start the playback. It shows its value as '2' due to which, the 'canplay' event is not getting triggered.
    This issue is replicable on local machine as well using some bandwidth throttling software. Also, it is important to note that this issue is visible on MAC's firefox. On windows, things are working just fine.
    If anyone has any solution of this problem, please let me know.

    Actually, I ran all but ADW and I included Super AntiSpyware. There is no virus. It is only V33+ and other browsers work fine. I think I will give up on Firefox for now until I upgrade to Win 7.
    Thank you everyone for your input.

  • Audio Playback Issues in Premiere Pro 8.1.0 with AJA Kona 3

    Hi,
    I'm supporting a couple of edits running the latest version of Premiere Pro. The editors are experiencing some strange stuttering/glitching audio playback via the installed AJA Kona 3 cards, manifested as follows:
    When scrubbing using keyboard arrow keys for any prolonged period of time, audio either begins to stutter or fails to playback (despite there being activity on the audio monitors within the software)
    When playing audio with unrendered effects (nothing too challenging, unrendered titles etc.), the audio will occasionally not play at all or will begin to stutter also.
    Specs are as follows:
    HP z800 running Windows 7 64-bit
    2 x Intel Xeon X5650 CPUs
    32GB RAM
    512GB Samsung SSD
    nVidia Quadro 4000 (latest drivers installed)
    AJA Kona 3 (latest drivers installed)
    Wacom Intuos 4 tablet (latest drivers installed)
    Storage is a SMB share connected via a dedicated 1Gb/s ethernet link (Intel PRO 1000 card) and media is largely DVCPRO HD 100 wrapped as OP1a MXF, with corresponding sequence settings.
    I've played with various RAM and Playback settings (including setting the AJA video playback buffer to 'minimum' as suggested on another thread regarding audio playback), but the problems persist. Is there anything else I can try, or more information I can provide?

    Since it worked with CS5.5, check with Blackmagic to see if they have updates for CS6
    I know from other discussions that an nVidia driver update was needed for at least some people upgrading to CS6

  • No audio playback QT 7.0.4

    I really need help from you wizards...
    I've just upgraded QT to 7.0.4 and have lost all mp3 audio playback. I was on QT 6.5.2 running under OSX 10.3.9 (refuse to upgrade to Tiger cos of compatibility issues). It also does not playback audio on some video files with AAC audio MPEG-1 muxed files are no problem).
    I've tried rolling back to 7.0.1 with no luck.
    Any ideas?

    Hi Scrapesuiter
    Nope, I use Itunes to handle MP3 files and they play fine....I also checked the Audio Midi setup. I've rolled back my version to 6.5.2 and everything is hunky dory...It could be a system issue that would require a clean install. When I get time I may just do this.
    Thanks for your help anyway. Nice to know help is out there.
