Itunes video sound quality
I've used itunes for years prior to buying an ipod.
Now that I have the ipod, ALL of my video files' sound is corrupted. It is very scratchy and full of static, but only when played on my computer. The sound quality on my ipod is flawless. Anyone have any ideas?

TS1718 Rental Video Sound Quality
I have rented a video through iTunes and the sound quality is poor. Has anyone else had this problem? The sound crackles and the actors words are off time from the movement of their mouths.

I just downloaded itune 6 and the sound quality is horrible - distorted and fuzzy sound.
I thought it was my speaker so I listened through quicktime and the quicktime played alright.
Any idea? did I do something wrong?
my computer's G4 powerbook / panther.
please help me if you have any solution.Hi, i think i've got the same problem as you, the music played in iTunes 6 has a hiss whenever there's something being played; whether it's mp3 or CD. if i play the same file in Windows Media Player, it's perfectly fine there.
I was using iTunes 4.9 before upgrading to 6, and everything was fine then. I really hope this gets fixed soon, i'm using iTunes everyday at work.
If Apple's reading this, please solve this quick! <=( -
Hey, I've read plenty of posts on how to fix this, but it's all for the Mac, and what they say is too turn off the auto-normalize, but there is no option for it on the ipad and I don't have a Mac...
I have exported it on all sound qualities, I have adjusted the low and high notes so they arent all that over powering, but it all keeps sounding the same
I would really love if I could have some help on this as I've spent months working on this piece of music and I really would love to have it on my mp3...
So some help would be greatly appreciatedI've just found out, that it sounds fine on my iphone when played through headphones, speakers or even stereo, its just when i play it on itunes, it sounds funny like when it hits lows it goes quiet as if it cant handle them...

ITunes video playback quality is not that smooth
Hello:
Two questions--
1. Why do the music videos I purchase on iTunes (and then play on iTunes) freeze up for a few seconds after I push play, but then otherwise playback is OK?
2. Why does the "spinning beachball" appear almost everytime I press play for a video?
Comment--
Given that my Mac more than meets the minimum system requirements for video playback, I think the videos should play smoothly from start to finish, especially at $1.99 a piece. I suspect that the playback bugs listed above are the result of iTunes not being that good/powerful of a video player. Hopefully, these issues will be resolved upon future iTunes software updates. In the meantime, I will not purchase anymore videos.
Thanks.

Powerbook G4 12" 1.33 Ghz 512 K RAM Mac OS X (10.4.3)Just updated iTunes to most recent version. Now I'm getting jerky video playback in BOTH iTunes and QT Pro (latest version). CPU use is very high but random; ditto with video playback (i.e., doesn't hang up on the same scene/time).
I had this issue a little over a year ago after updating iTunes to the then latest version. Got nowhere with Apple's "Service" texts. I played around with configs for a while and also re-installed iTunes. It has worked fine until yesterday (same symptoms as last time). As for the past "fix": nothing I can hang a hat on. Methinks Apple updated the version I re-installed with (tho' the version # was unchanged). -
Muffled and flat iTunes sound quality
While listening to iTunes, the sound quality I'm getting is muffled and flat. I launced Audacity (recording/sound editing program) and all of a sudden my sound quality in iTunes ate it. I reinstalled my entire system software and it began working again...that is until I launced Audacity again. I've deleted all of the files associated with Audacity and recreated the iTunes preference, but nothing is working. Any suggestions? I see that a lot of people are having this issue but there's no real solution that I could find.
I have noticed for a long time that recordings sound much better outside of iTunes. Better even in the Finder when using the Preview in an Info or Regular Window.
In a major mistake, I just accidentally updated to 7.0.2 from 6.0.4 and the first thing that I noticed was more of a quality difference between iTunes 7.0.2 and the Finder. Not so much, but some, from 6.0.4. That was why I stayed with it.
It doesn't make any sense to me. You would think that with the intensity that they put behind iTunes, that it would be perfect. Or at least not so easy to compare with something as simple as the Finder.

Nokia n97 mini sound quality for videos
I used to have a nokia N95 8GB which recorded great videos with good sound quality. Now I have the N97mini and for most videos you can barely hear the sound unless it is you speaking. Is there any way to record better video sound quality?

Hey, when I go to export my song to itunes the sound quality on highs and low goes really bad and I have to redo somethings in garage band to fix it (and it doesn't even really fix it), like make the EQ on the song really low. But I also want listeners of my tracks to enjoy having volume. Any ideas on how to make it so my export doesn't ruin my sound quality?

Optical drive sound quality bad?
I recently had a firmware update done to this computer. However I noticed that when I ripped CD's into iTunes the sound quality diminished. There is almost no bass and a lot of highs. I have checked the iPod EQ, the iTunes EQ, OS X sound preferences, my speakers, and my headphones. I also checked the iTunes store purchases I made but they still sound great. Only songs I rip from CD's sound worse only after I updated the firmware. Any suggestions?
There shouldn't be a reason for a firmware update to the drive to cause a quality issue with music you rip. Basically, the drive just reads the data. It can either read it or not, but it won't change it. As A BRODY asked... do you know what bitrate you recorded it at? Perhaps you had changed a setting?

Why the extremely poor sound quality in playback with itunes?
I am having problems with the sound quality of itunes music. this applies to both downloads and cd's. This problem is new, I believe, and affects bluetooth speaker, earphones, and macbook pro internal speaker. All have extremely poor playback with itunes. This Problem does not happen with playback of youtube videos.
Thanks for any advice you can give.I would be worth playing some tracks with Quicktime so see what the quality is like there.
iTunes uses Quicktime to play music.
Also check this Apple help on audio playback problems:

Hello can some please help I am trying to watch my HBO go on my apple tv I have sound no picture. I can watch my iTunes videos and youtube on my airplay with my ipad and everything is updated so I know it works. But not on HBO go, Max go, showtime go.
What you want to do does not work with an iPd running iOS 5. See the screenshot.
The latest update for HBO GO does allow for AirPlay on Apple TV - sound and video - but only on devices running iOS 6 and Apple TV running 5.1.1 or later - according to the app description. -
Why is the sound quality and volume in itunes so different than when I use other media players
This is an issue which has been vexing me for some time. I've researched it all over the web and have not found a worthwhile answer. Some other posts on these forums have asked similar questions without successful answers. But, none the less, I will try...
I have spent a lot of time over the last two years trying to get my itunes library organized as well as getting good digitized versions from my vinyl records as well as CDs. I was pleased with my results and then I added the songs to itunes. I could not believe how inconsistent the sound quality was. Invariably the volume is always lower. [Please do not post a reply such as: Check the volume controls in itunes proper as well as in itunes preferences (i.e., Sound Check, Sound Enhancer) & the Volume Adjustment in the Information pane under Options for particular songs.] I tried all of those means of adjusting volume. They do NOT work.
There is something more insidious at work in itunes which prevent good sound reproduction. I will give an example. I have played Frankie Valle and the Four Season's song "C'Mon Marianne" on the OS X system sound (i.e. clicking the play button to the song file when selected on the desktop or wherever it resides) as well as in Amadeus Pro. The song sounds great. When I play it when it's in the itunes' library the first part of the song is too lound and then when Frankie Valle starts singing his voice is at a significantly reduced volume.
I have edited the foregoing song in Amadeus Pro to a very high volume (i.e., Effects>Amplify), reloaded it into itunes and it still does not inprove the volume of Frankie's voice in the song, even though the rest of the song is somewhat louder. I have played with the Equalizer in itunes to no effect. It just does not work.
Now, I would glading move away from itunes and use another media player. However, I have other Apple devices through which I listen to music. And the only way I know of to listen,e.g., on the iphone is through itunes.
The other related problem with itune, or should I say iCloud, is icloud match. The icloud Match has taken great sounding music and given me back music of an inferior quality, even though it is a Matched AAC format.
I'm am sorry if I am a little peeved about this issue. If anyone has some suggestions or input to a solution, I will be eternally grateful. Thanks a bunch.fbuerg,
You are welcome. Glad my good fortune was helpful to you.

The sound quality of my speaker suddenly got really poor when playing music or videos. Sounds like an old AM radio or Sputnik. Pretty sure it's hardware related but maybe not. Thoughts on what the problem might be and if it can be repaired?
The batterys the ipods come with are very sensetive somtimes they dont react right to the first couple of charges. Try fully charging it and then leaving it on until its completely drained a few times. If that doesnt work it might be a lemon.

Airplay won't show video of movie downloaded from itunes, only sound
i just got a new ipad mini. upgraded the OS. downloaded movie from itunes. video won't play on the tv, just the sound plays on the tv.
my other ipad is not having this problem. The IOS of the ipad has not been updated.
The appletv did just do any update this morning (in between me testing my ipad mini) and still didn't fix it.
any ideas? I still have 13 days to return this mini and get a regular one. any advice is appreciated.Hello mizgeministarz,
And welcome to Apple Discussions!
I only have a few suggestions for you, but I thought it wouldn't hurt to at least try. Have you tried accessing these TV shows outside the playlist they reside in? Just access them from the main list of TV Shows if at all possible or if that isn't what you are doing currently.
It might not hurt to also try to restore the iPod and start from scratch allowing fresh copies of the TV Shows to sync over to your iPod. There may have been a syncing issue that corrupted your TV Shows. If that isn't the case, your iPod is having trouble with the video playback.
Hope this helps.
