ITunes audio problem while playing video.

I have purchased several TV episodes which play just fine in iTunes on my HP Windows 7 laptop. However, on my Dell Windows XP desktop, the same videos lose the audio after a few seconds in iTunes, but the same videos play just fine in Quicktime on the Dell. Can anyone shed some light on this problem? Why would a video work in Quicktime but not iTunes using the same computer?

Hello dogsters,
The following article details a number of troubleshooting steps that should help stabilize playback.

Audio problems while playing videos from superdrive

Hi, i've got a macbook pro with leopard and a bootcamp partition with windows xp.
When i play videos (divx or dvds) from my superdrive under windows, i have audio problems (like noise), but the same videos are fine in leopard or if i play them from another storage, for example from usb.
Perhaps it's a problem with last bootcamp drivers..or maybe there is something wrong with my superdrive. i remember this wasnt an issue when i bought my mac (less then a year ago).
Thanks in advance for the help.

I'm having the same problem.
I had a video file that I had to convert for my iPod & iPhone, after doing so, only a white video screen and just the audio.
What the heck is going on? it seems like a few people are having this problem!

IPod Touch/iPhone 4s in a BMW - Screen size problems while playing videos since iOS5

Hi,
I have an iPod Touch 4th generation 64GB that i use connected to my 2011 BMW M5 purchased with all multimedia and iPod/iPhone options available from factory.
The car lets me play music and video playlists from the iPod and the videos can be seen on the BMW iDrive screen, when i was in iOS4 everything worked perfectly, but then i updated to iOS5 and one problem arised and then updated to iOS6 and now to iOS6.1 but the problem still persists, basically the problem consists that sometimes video size and aspect ratio of videos displayed in the car display are wrong, and some times the same videos are displayed correctly. It is just random, sometimes is OK and sometimes it is wrong, but when it starts to display wrongly, all videos following are displayed wrongly.
After trying everything i discovered that while a video is playing with wrong size and aspect ratio, i can correct this behavior, sometimes manually unlocking the iPod and entering the "Music" app and exiting, and sometimes entering the iPod configuration and exiting, just entering and exiting, and sometimes doing both of them one after another. This is a temporary sollution because it is really disturbing to do this process while driving with the iPod inside the cradle in the armrest. I wish i could downgrade to iOS4.1 where i was before and everything worked perfectly, as there are no new features i care in iOS5 or 6.
I tried restoring the device in iTunes... 5-6 times in total since iOS5 release, tried using an iPhone 4s with iOS6 and the same problem happens, so obviously it is a bug present in latter iOS that it is not initializing correctly the screen when requested by external accessories.
you can see in this BMW forum other people with the same isue: http://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/showthread.php?t=602131
I can provide photos or testing if needed
Thanks and excuse my english.

You say your turning it off does that mean you are holding in the sleep button and sliding the unit off or does it mean you are just locking the unit with the screen off?
If you have the Wifi enabled and only have the IPT in standby mode then this is why it's depleting the battery so quickly. Charge the unit till it's full with the little plug showing and then eject it and turn off wifi and leave the unit in standby overnight and see if the battery depletes at all.
I've noticed that Wifi really ***** the life out of the battery very quickly so give it a try and report back to us.

Getting problems while playing video files in flex player

People use one-player-per-video because you can't reuse player objects. Player is a parent class to a whole bunch of subclasses, each subclass is capable of playing a specific kind of video. So when you create your Player object, you're actually creating some subclass type that's specific to that video type. So while it's technically possible to use a single Player subclass to play more than one video, unless all of your videos are of the same video encoding / audio encoding...you won't be able to reuse it.
What you need to do is dispose of the last player before you create a new player (player.close), and do that over and over again. That way, you're never using more than 1 player's worth of memory...

IChat Audio problem while in video chat

My girlfriend and I both have the new black MacBooks. When we go to video chat, we get this really loud feedback on both ends of the chat. It sounds like a squeaky wheel or something. We both turned down out output levels as well as turned on the ambient noises reduction. It's still happening. The only way to get rid of it is to lower our volumes to the point where we can't hear each other.
Also, after so long of talking in the video messenger, it starts to skip really bad and the video screen gets pixelated, as well as our voices skip.
We are both on cable internet, I should add.

Umm Echoes.
These can be hard to track down and sort.
Sometimes there is a slight delay on the chat and you can sometimes here yourself coming back over the connection.
If it is more like reverb in that it makes the sound "hollow" like you are in a big room then try moving Speakers and or Mic About and further apart.
Pointing speakers away from the Mic can help.
If that does not solve it you could try Headphones or a Headset.
Either of these will need setting in System Preferences > Sound > Output tab and in iChat > Preferences > Video > and the relevant drop down name (I have forgotten it)

While playing videos on itunes, audio and video will stop and start. It just started doing this recently and it does it with all my itunes videos..help!!

While playing videos on itunes, the audio and video will stop and start several times during playback. This just started recently and it does it on all my videos. Help!!

Try to download the application VLC.
It is a media player that should be able to play any audio or video file you may have. If your videos play flawlessly using that application, then the issue is with iTunes and Quicktime, as they are both essentially similar software types when it comes to playing media.
In that case you may need to install a plug-in file called Perian, in order for the videos to play correctly within iTunes or at least Quicktime...

Starz PLAY "Windows Media Player encountered a problem while playing this file" error!?!

My laptop running Windows 7 is having the error, " Windows Media Player encountered a problem while playing the file." when trying to play downloaded movies whereas the "live Starz TV" works fine. My netbook is working properly though, anyone seen this before?

- if you're still having the issue, make sure you are running all the latest video/audio codec's for windows media player and win 7 and also take a moment to check this article from microsoft.

VLC and even Quicktime stutters while playing videos

VLC and even Quicktime stutters while playing videos, more so for HD content. Any tips to improve performance? I have already tried turning off automatic graphics switching, did not make things better
I have an early 2011 Macbook Pro 15 inch, and i have had this problem from forever

I'm sorry, I didn't explain myself correctly. I was referring to watching a video on the iPod. It is really annoying when the video freezes momentarily, and the audio continues to play smoothly, but by the time the video catches up, you have lost several frames of your video. You know what I mean? Really annoying...

Let me ask you this:
How can you "watch" a video while you are scrolling
around in your menus? There is only one screen on my
iPod and I can only use it to watch videos OR scroll
through menus. When I press the menu button while
watching a video, the iPod goes back to the previous
menu. Then, when I go back to the video, it starts
back exactly where it was when I pressed the menu
button in the first place. Apparently, it pauses
while you are looking through the menu screens. Now
with music, I understand what you're saying but I
haven't had any stuttering or anything while browsing
the menus. The video is a bad example because it
doesn't work like you have explained....

Hi,
not sure if coincidence or the same question, but the same question got asked internally. The seeded option is required to get the OJSP filter installed. Here's the internal response
ADF View integration with MDS not configured
In web.xml, you need to have mds-ojsp intg enabled to load jspx base + customizations from MDS. In your web project in Jdev, go to ADFv project properties and select “Seeded customization” property. It would enable mds-jsp engine configuration in web.xml. If you want to use user personalization feature at runtime, you would need to select “User customization” property as well which would enable ADFv change persistence config in web.xml.
Warning: Some of the metadata under ... is packaged as part of both WAR and MAR. This metadata cannot be accessed from WAR using MDS.
For these two packages, you are including the files in both WAR & MAR. This warning conveys that since these base files are being put in MAR, at runtime they would be read from mds repository & not from WAR.

Audio problem when importing video files.

Hello everyone,
I just started using FCP X a few days ago for a university project and I seem to encounter an audio problem when importing videos in .mp4, .mov format or via the import from camera option.
Indeed I need to import videos in .mp4 and .mov format into FCP X. The import in itself is normal I can see my videos into the events/clips library and if I play them from the library I can hear the sound quite perfectly.
However, when I want to edit my videos and put it in the timeline, there is no audio. As a result I started to think that my videos could be the problem so I tried the option "import from camera" option using the Isight camera of my macbook pro but the same things happened. I could hear the sound from the events/clips library but not from the timeline (I can't see any audiowaves in the timeline).
I found a solution using quicktime and extracting the audio of the video in .m4a then importing the videos files and the audi files corresponding but it's a long process and a waste of time as FCP X should be able to import the audio of my video into the timeline directly. Especially if it can read it from events/clips library.
I hope I explained myself clearly and you could help me resolve my problem.
Cheers
Christophe
PS: I'm using FCP X version 10.0

Update to 10.0.5.
You have an incorrect setting when you edit. Try trashing your preferences. Post screen shots of your timeline and toolbar.

Battery problem while recording videos.

I got my ipod touch 5 1 month ago. I got a problem while recording videos. The battery was around 40 percent, but after I recorded a video for about 1-2 minutes. The 20% was popup, then it turned off automatically. While I turn on it, the battery will be about 30 percent. It happened several times. Is this normal?
Does anyone have the same problem?
Thanks!

Windows Media Player encountered a problem while playing the file...

I am running WMP 11.0.5721.5280. I am running XP SP3 with every update that has come out. I have 4 GB RAM and my processor is a Pentium 4, 2.6GHz.
I have a large collection of music file ripped from my CD collection. Almost every time I want to plat a music file I get a message; Windows Media Player encountered a problem while playing the file, For additional assistance, click Web Help. When this
error box is displayed, a red 'X' placed next to the file in WMP.
When I click the "Web Help" button, I am taken to a MS website (http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/c00d11b1) which tells me that I should go to the sound device website and make certain I have the latest driver. All of the advice which
is given does not apply to me. My sound device works fine! I can play CD, DVD (movies), and MP3 files. Even when I use RealPlayer, the same thing happens, but not as frequently.
Can anyone offer a solution to this problem?
