ITunes Videos (Both Movies and TV Shows) are skipping/ studdering.

iTunes Videos (Both Movies and TV Shows) are skipping/ studdering.
These videos were taken from my hard drive, converted with Format Factory, then placed in itunes.
ON ipad the videos playback perfectly, but in itunes itself it fails drastically.
Same problem happens with quicktime. If i open these videos up with quicktime, it studders and skips, while if i open it with VLC, it works fine.
I have already disabled 3d acceleration, which helped a very small bit.
The Rest of itunes runs smoothly, just video playback is screwed
Specs:
HP Envy 14
Intel i5 quad core processor 2.53 ghz
6 gb ddr3 ram
Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
Itunes 10.5.1
Quicktime 7.7.1

Update
It turns out that the reason for not playing TV shows and movies is not the network.
Something happened with the files while copying them from the Macbook to the NAS station.
I noticed that after copying a TV show from the NAS Station back onto the Macbook Air drive; it was not possible to import that file into iTunes. iTunes ignored importing that file.
On the other side the TV shows will be played by Quicktime, either from the NAS station or from the Macbook.
It might be important to mention that the NAS station is not OSX formatted.
Does someone know what happened ?
Regards

I just updated itunes on my mac and all of my icloud movies and tv shows are missing. Basically everything that wasn't on my computer isn't showing as available for download.

I just updated itunes on my macbook air and when I click on the movies or tv shows tabs in my library everything that was previously stored on icloud is now missing. This is $K's worth of stuff and I can't find any information on how to retreive it.

We are having this same issue. We have over 200 songs that are now missing and only our most recent ones show up in our ITunes library. Fortunately we have one phone that still has all of our music still in tact. This phone is no longer one I will be using as I upgraded to the Iphone 6, and only the most recent purchased songs remain. The rest are no where to be found and the iTunes store shows that I would need to re-purchase. Not sure what to do as when I tried to sync my last phone, all the songs were gone.

How to watch iTunes Store brought Movies and TV-Shows?

Hi,
I brought a lot TV-Shows and Movies from iTunes. They do all reside on the hard disk of one of my Macs. Each time I want to watch a movie or a TV Show, I need to start iTunes on this machine. I am considering giving up my DVD colection, but I have no plans to switch to BlueRay ever. BlueRay is dead, or at least for me no option, and I rather give up my brought DVD instead of increase the amount of shelfes for DVDs.
So I intent to import the DVDs myself or rebuying part of them on iTunes. Usualy the quality on iTunes is better than selfimported and the time investment for selfimport wont pay off, so it will be probably rebuying. But I dont want to waste several TB hard disk capacity for local copies.
Thought iCloud would take care of this. My music is available over music match and I can redownload any music video, audiobook or music from iTunes if I want. But I am not able to redownload any brought movie or TV-Show, nor can I stream brought movies from iTunes store on my Apple TV.
Why do I need to provide lots of Terrabyte of hard disk capacity for this? Thought with iCloud this would be over, but its not.
Edit:
According to Apple it should work this way:
http://www.apple.com/icloud/features/
But it is not. Any idea what I am missing?

My desktop was stolen a few weeks ago and I am left with this brand new hp thing.When I put itunes on and try to watch a movie or tv show I get a loud humming and after a while I can't take it anymore I turn it all off.I had actually given up and was ready to trade my ipad,ipods,and,itunes to anyone who can give me my movies and shows so I can actually watch them.Nero will stream my songs but not video and my ps3 will not see my istuff when I plug it in. Sony has gotten to be the same thing if I go anywhere on a trip I need to take a sony phone to play playstation store movies and an ipod or ipad to watch itunes stuff.
Is there any other way to see stuff I own? If so please tell me because it seems that I have more trouble watching stuff I own than the pirates on the internet and I would think that google is where I should be going because it will play anywhere on about anything.I hope I am just a dumb old man who doesn't know how to work this stuff and someone can tell me what I can do so I can watch my movies I paid for. any help would be great.
Thanks,
Chris

ITunes for Windows 11.0.4: "iTunes has stopped working" error messages when playing videos, video podcasts, movies and TV shows

Title says it all.
I've had this issue on this machine for some time but not forever. Music playback is fine but anything video related freezes the program. When I launch the program in safe mode it works though. Clearly some add-on or file is causing it to foul up.
Before anyone suggests this: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4221 <-- I've tried it to no avail so please don't repost
Anyways this is really annoying, please help.
Thanks
P.S. I know my way around the computer so no need to cripple your explaination

Hello Appropriator,
Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
The following article outlines further suggestions for troubleshooting video playback. While you have already completed one of the steps, there are a few more that you can try:
Troubleshooting iTunes for Windows Vista or Windows 7 video playback performance issues
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1718
Additional Information
Some customers using computers containing NVIDIA nForce Serial ATA (SATA) controllers may experience unexpected behavior when playing videos in iTunes on Windows from a SATA hard drive. iTunes may unexpectedly quit or become unresponsive or the computer may unexpectedly reboot or show a blue screen. Standard IDE hard disks are unaffected by this issue. If your computer contains a standard IDE hard disk, you can copy your video files to that disk and play those copies of the files in iTunes or QuickTime Player.
Thanks,
Matt M.

Audio and video tracks in movies and tv shows purchased at the itunes store do not play in sync on my desktop PC - can anybody help?

Any thoughts?

Purchased movies from iTunes are automatically available on Apple's cloud, but not as part of your purchased storage; purchased movies are stored free, since you can redownload them any time (unless the movies are no longer available).
From Apple:
iCloud automatically backs up the most important data on your device using iOS 5 or later. Once you have enabled Backup on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch .....
What is backed up
You get unlimited free storage for:
Purchased music, movies, TV shows, apps, and books
Notes: Backup of purchased music is not available in all countries. Backups of purchased movies and TV shows are U.S. only. Previous purchases may not be restored if they are no longer in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.
Some previously purchased movies may not be available in iTunes in the Cloud. These movies will indicate that they are not available in iTunes in the Cloud on their product details page in the iTunes Store. Previous purchases may be unavailable if they have been refunded or are no longer available in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.
You get 5 GB of free iCloud storage for:
Photos and videos in the Camera Roll
Device settings (for example: Phone Favorites, Wallpaper, and Mail, Contacts, Calendar accounts)
App data
Home screen and app organization
Messages (iMessage, SMS, and MMS)

Movies and tv shows, stored in my itunes, are not playing on my iPad

In my iTunes, I've played tv shows and movies on my laptop and iPod, however I can't get them to play on my iPad. Help?

The movies and tv shows in your iTunes library on your computer can be transferred to your iPad via the iTunes sync/transfer process. This is selected under the Movies and TV Shows tabs for your iPad sync preferences with iTunes. After the movies and tv shows are transferred, they will be available in the Videos app under iOS 5.

Itunes 7.1 deleted all movies and tv shows from ipod!

Just updated Itunes to 7.1 - and found out too late that both movies and tv shows were suddenly unchecked for the sync. I've always had them on auto sync before this and did not change any settings.
So when I synched for the first time with 7.1, I lost my 20gb of videos from the ipod (60gb). Extremely annoying.
They're still in the library but it will take hours to get them back to the ipod.
Anybody else got this? Is this a bug on 7.1 or did I just do something wrong?

How did you make your backup?

How do you move just your movies and tv shows to an external hard drive and have iTunes recognize that that is where that media is (keeping music on the internal hard drive itself and putting only movies and tv shows on an external hard drive)?

I'm not sure about how to get iTunes to recognize that my music is in one location (on my MacBook's internal hard drive) and my movies and tv shows are in another (on an external hard drive I purchased). I know how to make iTunes recognize that all of my iTunes files are on an external hard drive, but not only some of them. Please help me out. Thanks.

While you can do that, it is not a feature of iTunes. Put your movies on the external drive, then add them to iTunes by dragging the files to iTunes while holding the option (alt) key down so it leaves the files where they are located. There are other ways to move them if they are already added but they can be more involved and tricky. If it's just one or two try: http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/ss.php?sp=relocateselected

How can I fix the audio of my movies and tv shows on itunes?

So all of my movies and tv shows are choppy, have bad static, and the audio doesn't match the picture. How do I fix it???

The only thing is, I have read where it will only keep 100 entries at tops. I'm not sure as I have never let it get that high, however many business users have reported this.
OP, how much history are you talking about keeping? Also, there is no method to archive this in any fashion to be looked at or searched at a later date.

Movies and TV shows in the cloud playback keeps quitting

Hi
I'm hoping someone can help me with this strange and very frustrating problem we have encountered recently...
I'm running a Mac Mini (latest model that comes with Server, Mavericks, 16GB RAM). We have fibre broadband with Virgin Media and get speeds of a steady 80mb down and about 9mb up. I connect wirelessly to an apple timecapsule which has very good signal. Our Movies and TV shows are stored in the cloud rather than locally.
Until recently we could stream the shows/movies without any interruption. Lately however we are finding that without exception, playback will simply stop and we are dumped back to the mavericks desktop - usually within the first few minutes of starting to watch something.
I have also noticed the following perhaps related issues:
1. If I try to download a local copy from the cloud it takes me many attempts as the download regularly quits (with a 3253 error message I think);
2. Once it is downloaded we can watch the local copy without any problems
3. We have an second gen Apple TV which also connects wirelessly to the same timecapsule. The Apple TV does not encounter any playback issues.
4. Bizarrely i often note that even though I have all 8 seasons of 24 purchased through itunes, and although Itunes says there are 8 seasons available - I can often only see one episode. If I go to the iTunes Store find the relevant 24 season, it seems to trigger my copy of itunes to 'remember' that I should have access to it.
I have even gone so far as to do a full clean reinstall of mavericks to try and resolve the problem but it's still there.
Any thoughts please?
Many thanks
Kris

Same thing is happening to me on my iPhone. I tried signing out of my account and signing back in, but still nothing. Hope someone has an answer out there.

Can't Find Movies and TV Shows From iCloud in 11.1.1

Before the recent update to iTunes 11.1.1 I had undownloaded the movies and tv shows that I purchased in iTunes on my account, under the premises that I could retrieve them via iCloud (I tried this and it worked). After the update to 11.1.1 iTunes no longer shows any of the movies or TV Shows that I had purchased and and it shows the value of the movie/tv show when I go to the itunes store in an attempt to redownload those that were purchased. My account details show my past purchases and the movies and tv shows are there, but the ghost files that were supposed to represent the movies and tv shows I undownloaded are not there. Maybe I am not finding where they are, but I would like to be able to view/download them so I can put them on my iPod.
I also recently bought a new iPod and it has all of the movies and tv shows that I purchased available on it, but not downloaded to it (I can watch them from my iPod). Can someone explain to me how this works and why my purchases are not showing up in my iTunes library on my Macbook Pro? I am logged in on the account that I purchased everything with.

iTunes prefs > Store.
Tick Show iTunes in the cloud Purchases.

I updated my iPod and now, two movies, which were purchased in iTunes and have/show both HD and SD versions are no longer syncing to or playing on my iPod.

Which version of iTunes are you using?
What is your iPod firmware number as shown in the iTunes summary page?
Is there any error message when you try to sync the vidoes?
Have a nice day!

Connect your device, select it in the left-hand column, then change the settings on the various tabs to sync the media content your library to the device. Anything already on it may be removed. If that would be a problem see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

Loosing Sync Purchased Movies and TV Shows (ATV 2.4 & iTunes 8.2.1 )

Had my 160gb ATV for about 6 months now with now problems. Have my entire audio library synced, movies, tv, shows etc. All my music is DRM free. All my TV shows are purchased from Apple. My movies are a mixture of ones purchased from apple and some of my converted DVD's via handbrake. Music videos from apple.
Within the last day, my ATV isn't showing all my movie and tv shows I've purchased.
About 2 weeks ago, my ATV upgraded to 2.4 (I do have the latest Boxee running on it). And earlier this week, I upgraded my PC with iTunes to 8.2.1.
Now shows just started disappearing from the ATV.
I "disconnected" my ATV from my PC with iTunes (of course I rebooted both my PC (WinXP) and ATV).
Next I reconnected my ATV to my PC with my iTunes libaray. It is going through a long resynch process.
But it still looks like it is only resynching certain items. Music all look OK (all drm free). Music videos moving over. Only some movies and no TV shows (again).
One thing I noticed is that all none DRM items seem to be resynching. Also DRM items that have Fairplay 2 seem to be resynching. But anything that has fairplay 3 doesn't seem to be moving to the ATV.
I just purchased season 2 of burn notice. It downloads to my PC OK, but none of these new shows are syncing to the ATV either.
Could it be something with particular versions of fairplay?
Any other suggestions?
This is killing me, as I was trying to catch up on some TV shows this summer.
Thanks
Greg

Oh alright -- I manage to resolve my own stupidity quite abruptly, actually.
Shortly after posting this, I annoying took another gander at iTunes Store settings. To my own idiocy, I must have unchecked "Show iTunes purchases in the cloud" at some point. In my defense, though, the availability of songs in iCloud threw me off quite a lot.
Ha ha -- anyways, if anyone else is having the same problem, check there.
