Lose audio when watching movies

When I first started using ITunes and I downloaded movies they worked fine, I could watch the whole movie no problems. I think it was after perhaps the fourth movie I downloaded suddenly I started having audio issues. I'd get about 20 minutes into the movie and the audio when cut out and then go out all the way. I'd have to shut down itunes and come back about a half an hour later and I'd get another 20 minutes of the movie and then the audio would go out again. I have to do that thru the whole movie. I've done all the suggestions to fix it.....don't use the enhanced audio, reinstall Quicktime ect but nothing seems to be working.
Does anyone have any other suggestions I might be able to try?
Thanks

Same problem with all headphones and earbuds--just checked settings and Volume Limit was already off--starting to think it's a volume system flaw tied to videos and related sound.   No problem getting plenty of sound volume for music, only videos.

  • Anybody know how to fix the audio while watching movies on first generation apple tv?

    Anybody know how to fix the audio while watching movies on first generation apple tv? On my apple tv, I can hear audio for music, music videos, youtube, internet radio and even movie previews! But..... when I pay for the rental download of a movie there is no audio - just visuals. I am connecting with hdmi. When I connect an apple tv 2nd generation to the same amp and tv, using same hdmi and even same power lead and same settings then there is no problem! Anybody know how I can get audio to work for movies for this?

    that makes sense and good point but no don't think so. Where would I check that setting? I had same problem on my next gerneration apple tv (black model) but when I switched off the dolby then I could hear movie. In this case that does not work for the first generation (white) apple TV I have whether dolby is on or off. I have never been able to watch a movie using it.

  • When watching movie on ATP2 the display of computer never sleeps

    When watching movies on ATV2 the display of computer will not go to sleep. After fiddling with setting both on computer as well as ATV2 the problem still persists. This coincidentally happened after lastest upgrade never had the problem with last firmware. Is anybody having the same problems?.

    when the computer fall asleep it power down it's harddisk and it's netcard
    so you would likely be more bothered if it did fall asleep because then you're atv2 would
    lose the access to the media if you play media from your shared itune lib

  • My "Apple TV" is hooked up via HDMI to my Marantz receiver.  Everything works fine when watching movies.  When trying to watch a show or listen to music, there is no sound.  Has this happened to anyone else?

    Perhaps you should ask over in the iPad community, you may get better answers there.
    It's actually my fault that psoon ended up here ... s/he intially posted over at Home Sharing, and I tried a relocate request to Apple TV rather than iPad.

    I recently upgraded from an iPhone 4s to an iPhone 5.  I have a Motorola HX550 Bluetooth Headset which worked flawlessly with the iPhone 4s.  However, since upgrading to the iPhone 5, I frequently lose audio when in the middle of a call.  I am not certain whether it is a full disconnect or just an audio loss.  The person on the other end reports still being able to hear me, however, I suppose they could hear me speaking over another source even if bluetooth disconnected. The loss of audio is always preceded by a quick shrill noise, so I can easily tell when it happens.  All I have to do to fix the problem is to select Audio Source on the call screen, temporarily switch audio back to the iPhone, and then switch back to the headset, and then it starts working again.
    Is is important to note that I am not the only one experiencing this issue:
    This is a link to someone using the Motorola H19txt headset experiencing the same issue

    If you go to the Plantronics website and look at the "Ratings and Reviews" on the Voyager Legend you will see the same issue reported:

    Really nice Headset unless you own an Iphone 5. I own several Plantronics headsets and have always loved the quality/ performance. This headset seems not to be compatible with the new Iphone 5. In the middle of a conversation it will lose all incoming audio. This leaves you trying to switch audio sources really fast in order not to lose your phone call. Ive tried 3 legend headsets and they all do the same thing. Hopefully this gets fixed soon because the headset is really nice
    Since this issue appears to affect multiple headsets from multiple vendors, I think it is fair to conclude that it is an issue with the iPhone5 bluetooth itself.
    I am posting this as a new discussion as I don't see any other posts specific to this iPhone 5 Bluetooth issue.  I would have reported this as a problem to Apple, but don't seem to be able to find a way to do this on the web.  Hopefully they are already aware, but if not, maybe they will see i here.

    here is an interesting thing: take the iphone and set lock screen to never. Now make an email with siri--be sure to activate her with call button. get to the body and get some text in there. then just stop talking. LOCK SCREEN APPEARS!!!!!! and of course you draft is gone.
    There does seem to be a work around for some--maybe all these issues. Don't use the call button--use the buttons on the phone.
    Siri seems to behave properly with scenerio above---sans call button. She does not go to lock.

    My Iphone5 was replaced and having same Problem. Only does this when using bluetooth for talking.

    I have the exact same issue... I've been using a Jabra Extreme2 and just this weekend, bought a Plantronics Marque2 and today had the same issue, so it's clearly not the headset but the phone or OS.
    I might try a restore and see if it helps...

  • Freezing video when watching movie on 2nd monitor.

    Freezing fregrently for a second video when watching movie with ful screen option.
    OSX 10.6.8 system.
    MacBook pro 3,1
    2.2 GHZ
    memory 4GB
    NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT

    You won't be able to do it with the included QuickTime media player. But it can be done with other media players like MPlayer or VLC I am pretty sure. Haven't had this exact need myself but have seen other similar threads and recall the above being recommended. Good luck.

  • Air Screen Dims when watching movies

    Hi all! This is a stupid question. I've just purchased a new macbook air 11.6 in and when watching movies (not in ful screen) the screen dims, Im assuming because of inactivity with keyboard, etc. I dont like to watch all movies in full screen, so how do I change the settings to allow for longer 'inactive' times? Meaning, I don't want the screen to dim after only 5 minutes. Thanks!

    In System Preferences > Energy Saver > uncheck "Automatically reduce brightness before display goes to sleep"
    Also adjust the sleep timer to suit.

    A very strange thing just happened, I have no audio when watching a YouTube video on my mac, I have audio for everything else?
    when I watch it on my mini mac I do have audio
    Is there a simple way to fix this?
    Thanks

    I've seen this happen before, but it's been a while since I've had to deal with it... As I recall there were a few things that could work:
    - First of all, I'd probably make sure you're running the latest and greatest version of flash...
    - secondly, try repairing permissions in disk utility -- it can help to rectify any number of issues...
    - if none of that works, an audio application may have changed your computer's sampling rate to something too high for other applications (like your browser) to use. You can try this:
    1) Open “Audio MIDI Setup” (/Applications/Utilities/), and then check the “Audio Output” setting.
    2) Change the “Audio Output” setting to 44100.0 Hz.
    3) Quit Audio MIDI Setup.
    - If none of that works, some audio problems on macs have magically been fixed by opening the program GarageBand, and then closing it.
    - Lastly, if all else fails, you could trash the preferences file for flash player.
    I hope at least some of these suggestions were helpful--if anyone has any other input and/or thinks these suggestions are off-base, let me know...

  • Bad sound when watching movies etc..

    Hi,
    I bought an Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter Cable @ ebay a while back, and recently Ive started using it with my macbook air (running OS X Mountain Lion)
    I have this hooked up to my receiver and the image quality is superb, but the sound is not that great..
    I often use to watch movies (.mkv files) and all movies have very poor sound quality. Even when its DTS-HD Master Audio 7.1..
    Have someone experienced something like this?

    Anyone ???? I doubt I am the only one who have had this problem..

  • How do I make my screen look better when watching movies?

    I notice when I watch movies on my Macbook that there are negative parts when I'm sitting on an angle. Is there any way to solve this through calibrating it or the right lighting. This doesn't happen on my sister's older Powerbook G4 that has a matte screen.

    Try not watching it on an angle and also try recalibrating it. Play around with the calibration until you find a setting that looks good for movies. Then save it. You can switch to it whenever you watch movies then.
