When watching a movie in Itunes the sound does not match the lips

Why does my sound when watching a movie in itunes fall behind?

Im running Windows 7 64bit and when I watch movies in iTunes, the sound starts running slow. It gets so bad that it starts cutting out. If I pause it and hit play again, it goes right for a minute and then starts over again. Thoughts?

When I purchase movies from Itunes I am unable to view them. But when I rent a movie it is viewable. Why is this?

Heres what I don't like about VLC, but at least the files are viewable...somewhat.
1. You can't flip the image 90degrees, needs to have a rotate feature for sure. This needs to have keyboard shortcut so vids can be rotated easily as one may have shot video horizontally and vertically in the same take.
2. Opens file to a very large window, most of it off the screen, it should REMEMBER what you resized it to, so the next time a video is played you don't have to drag the window back on the screen so you can get to the resizing handle in the lower corner.
3. Doesn't buffer while playing, so the movies are extremely erractic, starting and stopping every 3 seconds, highly annoying.
OK so maybe my PC is too slow, its a dual processor 486 Hyperrthread 2.8G but I only have 2Gigs of memory, however, bettery than 50% of the memory is still available while playing a vid (memory is checked every 4 seconds with a program), but I have 90-100% CPU useage going on while playing.
Maybe I should think about a new computer.

Problem Uploading Converted Movie to Itunes

I have a 30gig Ipod Video,and I downloaded a movie from 360Download,and I then used cucusoft.com to convert it, Now the converted movie is in a folder and I looked on the website of cucucsoft to look for the instructions to then upload the movie into Itunes. But everytime I try to drag the movie file or "add file to library" in Itunes....Nothing happens,I look back into my library and I do not see the movie.
Can anyone help me?

The majority of conversion problems posted here are
tied to videora.
Audio/video sync problems, won't go onto ipod even
though it says it is the correct format, or sound
drops out after a few minutes.
That is bad, buggy software.
People keep pushing the software, suggesting it for
every person posting.
Since it is buggy and so many people have problems
with it and I do not want to keep seeing repeated
questions about why videora messed up-I tell people
to avoid it.
I use to just tell them to google search, try several
different ones and pick what they like.
Now I just push mpeg streamclip to counteract
everyone else pushing videora.
I do this because I care.
I ended up searching thru some of your posts,and I got the url for the actual site,and I have no downloaded square5, BUT NOW....when I try to convert the movie using this format....Its telling me "FILE OPEN ERROR:SUPPORTED FILE TYPE"
Help Me...what am I doing wrong or is it just the movie I am trying to convert?....

No audio coming from converted movies

When reformatting mpeg movies to be able to be used in itunes, the video works but there is no audio when using quicktime pro.

Is there a third-party utility to convert the muxed file to a format that does allow you to edit or export. in order to get the audio w/ video?.

Converting movies in itunes

when i use itunes to convert movies and sync to my iphone the movie clip will play but i get no sound. any ideas
thanks

If the videos are multiplexed MPEG files then the audio and the video are muxed onto the same track. QuickTime, and therefore any application that uses QT like iTunes, the iPod, iMovie (Mac app), etc. expect two separate tracks, one video and one audio. So when you convert these muxed files, the video is played and the audio is not heard.
iPod plays video but not audio of some exported files

So you need to do a conversion on the file first. MPEG Streamclip is a popular one that comes in both Mac and Windows versions and is known to "repair" this problem.
There are other applications that can do this as well. Try searching the iLounge.com web site for more conversion help. But your root cause is the muxed MPEG files.

No audio when recording a movie on iMovie?

I recorded a movie of myself as an intended blog video for YouTube but there is no audio when I play it back.
I have checked System Preferences to ensure built-in microphone settings are good and they are.
I have a 2011 Macbook Pro with up-to-date software.
I found my similar posts online to mine but no answers.
Operating System 10.7.5
Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi
This is a bit unclear to me.
No audio when recording
No Video-editing program I know off play any feedback (at standard settings) while recording. FinalCut is even worse that it doesn't play the sound while importing from Camera either (one need to connect speakers to the Camera-audio-out to get this)
So first - I'm not sure if You can get audio out while recording in iMovie at all.
BUT
If there is no sound - When Your captured video is played back - then the problem is more severe and I would start with.
• Trashing iMovie pref and cache files
and see if that helps.
Please - be more descriptive - so that one can do the same actions to see if Your problem is Yours only or if it is the same on more Macs.

TS3297 no sound when viewing HD movie from iTunes via Apple TV?

Recently added AppleTV to the home theater (via HDML). Downloaded HD movie from iTunes, but there's no sound. Pretty picture, just no sound. Other AppleTV functions have sound (movie previews, Hulu), and viewing photos and listening to songs from MacBook work fine. Any suggestions?

I turned off "Dolby Digital" - now it´s working!

Losing audio when editing .mov files...

I have 4 .mov video files that are parts of 1 video. I can't get them into Apple TV, but I wanted to join them together in one video, anyway. I'm not having any luck doing that. (I have the right to have these videos.)
I can bring them into a sequence in FCP 6.0.6, and even export them in a form that I can put on my Apple TV. But I lose the audio, which makes them useless.
Probably worth noting: When I bring these small .mov files into my sequence, I can see them and scrub through them, but I can't play them at all (they all have the red line indicating they need to be rendered first). I have the latest iMac 27" with the i7 processor and two internal drives, so I can't see why they'd have to be rendered first. They are really low-quality, small files (around 3MB each).
Can anyone tell me what the problem might be? Thanks for any advice.

FCP only works natively with formats listed in the Easy Set Up list. It does NOT work natively with many formats that are intended for final delivery like MPG-4, h.264 and others. If you import those types of files into FCP they WILL need to be rendered. But it is better to first convert those files before you import into FCP. That fact that you can't hear the audio may indicate you're using a muxed format that will need to be demuxed for editing.
This information is easily found in the User's Manual. It sounds like this would be a good time to read the basics.
