Low Volume In QuickTime Plugin

I'm having an unusual problem.
I just purchased a new PC with Windows Vista Business 64. I just installed QuickTime 7.6 along with the QuickTime plugin for Firefox and Internet Explorer. The problem is the volume of the plugin. In Firefox it is very low and barely audible, even though the Windows volume is at maximum. In Internet Explorer, the volume is loud, as I would expect with the maximum setting.
Is there a separate volume setting for the plugin for each browser?
Note: The volume settings in the full-blown QuickTime Player do not seem to affect the plugin. When I play the same audio file URL via the Player, it sounds correct. In Firefox though, it's very soft.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

I'm having the same problem, only i'm the video is for my site. The volume is fine on desktop. On my website, it's fine for me. For others it's barely audible. I have the volume="100" tag specified just in case.
ideas?

I have just upgraded to OSX 10.6.8 and now I cannot open or save PDF files from the internet using either Safari or Firefox. I get a dialogue box saying the QuickTime plugin has failed. Can anyone help?

Is this what you downloaded: iTunes 10.7?
When the update fails what if any error report do you get, specifically? Please do this before trying again:
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.

How to deactivate the Keyboard shortcuts (QuickTime PlugIn)

Hi,
Is there a way, to Disable the Keyboard Shortcuts when using the QuickTime PlugIn within IE and/or Firefox ?

Are you viewing or are you serving these QuickTime files?
The QuickTime Control Panel offers options to run in "kiosk" mode so that the viewed file can't be saved via the Pro upgrade. Each user account has their own settings.
To prevent the keyboard option in the QuickTime movie controller from appearing in a Web based file you would set the object and embed tags to use kioskmode="true". This removes it from the controller menu and stops drag and drop capture but will not stop a determined viewer from obtaining a local copy of your file.
Other QuickTime keyboard options also exist and many people don't know about them.
For example (once the QuickTime file has "focus" in the browser) the arrow keys adjust the movie volume (up/down) and the spacebar starts and stops playback.

Missing QuickTime Plugin.plugin

Hi,
I have a huge problem with QuickTime Player that it doesn't running very well with Safari, Chrome, and Mozilla. It sometimes freeze and disconnected. I saw other people have similar problems like this: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2230875&start=30&tstart=0
I tried to look in Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ and noticed that I don't have any files in there even missing QuickTime Plugin.plugin. I still have QuickTime 10 and 7 installed. Does anybody know what is going on? Could you please help me how to fix it.
Thanks!

>>i dont want to reinstall the whole OS. will it delete all the apps and settings?
No, those should all be retained, only OS components will be replaced, but of course the combo & other updates will be required afterwards.
>> the volume doesnt meet the requirements for this update.
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?
something amiss in the system, that is checked for as part of the installation (might be just a version number) - the Installer.log, visible in Console application, may be more specific.
>>but i can copy manually the quicktime plugin using pacifist???
You can indeed - extract it from the combo or grab it from another mac or backup. Speaking of which, do make some if you don't already have some; doubly so since something obviously happened to that plugin & additionally another item has been changed so that the installer, 'won't'.

Quicktime plugin for screen capture does not work in flash player 11.2

Hello,
I have created a quicktime plugin (it is .component file) for screen sharing purpose.
I have used quicktime framework for that. plugin is detected in flash player.
This plugin is working perfectly for flash player 11 and below.But,
It does not working in latest flash player 11.2.
I have seen following error on console -
Google Chrome Helper EH[240:e92b] *** QTCaptureSession warning:
Session received the following error while decompressing video:
Error Domain=NSOSStatusErrorDomain Code=-8974
"The operation couldn’t be completed. (OSStatus error -8974.)".
Make sure that the formats of all video outputs are properly configured
Note - Compression format used in plugin is kBMPCodecType.
Please, help me.

The issue ended up being the change in resolution to my external monitor. Flash was unable to detect the proper coordinates of the color I was trying to select because I was running my monitor in HD mode rather than selecting an actual resolution from my monitor preferences. Changing the settings to an acutal resolution, instead of generic "HD mode" fixed the issue.

QuickTime Plugins have problems on Windows 7 (64-bit)

Uninstalling/reinstalling QuickTime did not fix the problem. Still get a script error and no QuickTime ActiveX plugin installed when accessing a web page with the embedded player on Windows 7 Pro 64-bit with Internet Explorer 8 (64-bit).
I did more experiments and found the following: Windows 7 Pro 64-bit comes with two versions of Internet Explorer 8; one is 32-bit and the other is 64-bit. The 32-bit version of Internet Explorer will install the QuickTime ActiveX plugin and load a video; however, the Controller bar at the bottom of the player is just pure black--you can't see the controls. If you click on the right place, it will play the video, but you can't see the control your clicking on. This exact same behavior also occurs in Firefox 32-bit, Chrome 32-bit and Safari 32-bit when running on Window 7 Pro 64-bit: they all exhibit the same problem with their respective QuickTime plugins.
So, there appears to be *two issues*: 1) The QuickTime plugins run impaired in 32-bit browsers running on Window 7 (64-bit); and, 2) The QuickTime ActiveX plugin is incompatible with, and will not install in, the 64-bit Internet Explorer 8 browser running on Windows 7 (64-bit).
If anyone at Apple is paying attention--Please fix this and issue an update to include plugins that work in both 32-bit and 64-bit browsers when running on Windows 7 (64-bit). Thank you.

Apple engineers generally don't read these forums. The best way to get information to them is to use the feedback page:
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/feedback
or open a Developer account (the "Online" program is free) and use Apple's Bug Reporter (this is usually the best way for an issue like this but you may not want to open a Developer account just for this purpose).

Guitar audio drop-out at lower volumes

I have tried out mainstage on a friends macbook pro, to check if it will be worth an investment into Logic over Garageband, mainly as an effects emulator for my guitar so I don't need to worry about amps in my small flat.   I connected through an Edirol UA-5 USB audio interface and while there were some issues with this interface anyway due to the fact I could only use input-1 rather than the Hi-Z Input-2 that I should use, I wanted to check some audio problems I had and see how to fix them.
Basically, at full volume on my guitar it seems to work fine, but as soon as I turn the guitar volume knob down there is literally no sustain anymore, I can hear a brief note and then it just cuts out, no gradual loss just stops.   If I only plug the interface in without mainstage then the monitor channel gives me the full volume control I expect and I tried my guitar on a proper external amp and it seemes to be fine so i've eliminated my guitar as the problem.
Anyone experienced this or have any suggestions to try to get it to work.
Also, if I use garage band I don't hear the output fromt he amp/effects simulators, only raw guitar and I only hear the final version if I record it and then play it back. Is there a way to get Garage band to act as a amp/fx simulator in a live mode like mainstage does or is the fact mainstage is playing back through the interface what might be causing the problems in some feedback loop??   Beginning to think an iRig would have been a better option......

Hi
Sounds like you may have a Noise Gate in there somewhere?
CCT
yeah I thought of that but couldn't see anything, and think my knowledge of what a noise gate would do is slightly rusty since I assumed that at louder volumes it would clip and at lower volumes it would be fine....i'll have a play next time I am over my friends and see if I can spot anything.
Thanks for the quick reply.

How can I make my Quicktime plugin work again?

Before installing the Firefox v3.6, my quicktime plugin was working. After I installed v3.6, the quicktime plugin didn't work. I tried to uninstall v3.6 and installed back v3.5, but the quicktime plugin is still not working. How can I make it work again or how to fix this? Thanks.
Is there a way to undo the installation of Firefox v3.6, meaning to remove any traces of Firefox 3.6 installation, because this problem only came after I installed Firefox 3.6.
I'm able to play streaming videos from websites (e.g. http://www.singingsuccess.tv/videos/?vid=251) BEFORE I installed v3.6. AFTER installing v3.6, the streaming video now shows a blue Q with a question mark in the center. I tried to uninstall that version and install back v3.5, but the problem still exist.
Thank you and hoping for your prompt reply. More power.

You actually have to update the entire QuickTime application to get a new version of the QuickTime plugin that Firefox uses.
I don't know what you mean by a licensed version of QuickTime. Do you have QuickTime Pro (paid version) or the free version?
If you are updating the free version, just download it from http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/ and then install it on top of your current version (no need to uninstall it first).
If you are updating QuickTime Pro, I copied this from http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=12301362&#12301362
'''Re: need new install of quicktime pro Posted: Sep 19, 2010 5:28 PM'''
'''Download a free version of Quicktime. Open it and choose Edit. Scroll down to Preferences and choose Register. Once you enter your Registration Key, it will automatically update your version to QuickTime Pro (this is what I just did on my PC).'''

Seemingly low volume for X-Fi Xtrememu

Today, the second time I booted up my computer I began to receive an interesting problem. My audio worked to some extent, but the volume was exceedingly low. I had to put my ear right next to the speakers to hear anything. I pulled out my headphones and plugged them in -- Same result, low volume. When I disabled the X-Fi and enabled my onboard audio, the volume was crystal clear and worked perfectly fine. I didn't change any software, drivers, hardware, or anything of that sort within the two reboots either.
I checked the obvious and made sure my volume was high in the X-Fi configuration panel, the windows panel, and my media players. Everything was maxed out. When I turned up my volume to the maximum on my speakers I could hear things better, but it was horribly distorted and sounded as if they were being over dri'ven. Normally I never have to increase the volume on the speakers much to hear anything, their usually on about 20-30% and I hear them perfectly fine.
I posted about this before on another site and It was recommended I try installing the latest drivers. So I decided to do an uninstall of the X-Fi drivers for good measure and, after rebooting, I installed the drivers and rebooted once more as it prompted me. The same exact result as before: sound that seems to have very low volume. After this, they recommended I try a different PCI slot as it may be damaged. I tried the other PCI slot and I had the same exact results as before. I did not want to install the card into the slot right next to my video card because it looked like the fan would be right up against the PCB of the X-Fi and that it might impede air flow and cause both cards to overheat.
Does anyone know what might be the problem? I'm using the latest drivers I saw (September 9th I believe) and the X-Fi has worked great for the past week and a half. I really don't want to have to own a $00 paperweight and revert to onboard audio.
Edit: If it helps any, I'm running on the following:
Asus A8N32 SLI Deluxe
AMD Opteron 70
X-Fi Xtrememusic
GeForce 7900 GT
If you need any other info, i'll post it.Message Edited by Sagekilla on 0-22-2006 2:9 PM

Bump.. Does anyone know how to fix this problem? I've made a list of all the fixes I've attempted
- Checked the volume in Creative's console, the Windows volume control in my tray bar, and in the Control Panel under "Audio and Sound devices"
- Made sure default device was the X-Fi
- Made sure the speakers was plugged in the right spot
- Made sure the speakers weren't faulty (I tested with a pair of head phones and on my iPod)
- Made sure I had the latest drivers
- Did the diagnostic, didn't help
- Did a system restore that made things worse
- Switched the PCI slot the sound card was in
- Tried onboard audio and found the audio there worked fine (I don't want onboard audio and a $00 paper weight though)
- Made sure onboard audio was uninstalled and disabled
- Posted on the creative labs forums and got no replies
- Safe Mode doesn't even recognize the Sound card
I'm pretty sure this isn't something stupid like "Is the volume turned up?"

A Quicktime plugin update is recommended for FF 3.6.4 on mac os 10.4 but no new version is available?

A Quicktime plugin update is recommended for FF 3.6.4 but for mac os 10.4 there is no new version? My current Qt-version is 7.6.4 am I missing something?
== When I updateted to FF 3.6.4

Does this only occur with 10.6.8? I just gave this a try on my 10.8.3 system with AIR 3.6 but couldn't reproduce the crash on quit. However, I also was unable to log into the application due to lack of credentials. Could you please open a bug on this over at bugbase.adobe.com? If we need to log in to reproduce the bug, please send any test credentials to [email protected] Once the bug has been entered, please let me know the bug number so I can attach the symbolicated crash log to the bug report.
Thanks,

Colour background for quicktime plugin and favicons

Hi, a trivial query. I have seen some sites where the background colour for the quicktime plugin player is black not white. On my proto site http://www.goldenumber.co.uk/beermatts_trumpet_pages/ if you click on the midi files the player has a white background which I would prefer to be black. Do I need to edit the midi file itself? Any suggestions gratefully received.
Secondly, when I access the midi files or the pdfs I lose my favicon image in the address bar. Is there a way around this?
Regards, Matt.

I still see a white background when I click on a MIDI file link.
Unless you place the MIDI file in a web page (such as with EMBED SRC), you cannot control how the MIDI player plugin will display in the browser. Look at the zianet.com page linked above for an example. The directory web page is black (with text and graphics) and plays 'Hold on to the Night' in the background because it is embedded in the HTML.
If you want to control the appearance, you need to create a new HTML page for each MIDI file.
Example:
Create a new file called '
The_Fields_of_Athenry.html' and use the following example HTML...
<html><head>
<title>The Fields of Athenry</title></head>
<body bgcolor="black">
<EMBED SRC="http://www.goldenumber.co.uk/beermatts_trumpet_pages/midis/The_Fields_of_Athenry.mid " AUTOSTART="true" HIDDEN="false" Width="145" Height="24">
</body>
</html>
Link to this HTML file instead of the MIDI file.

Low volume warning

My son is currently having a problem connecting to itunes. When he brings up itunes he gets a low volume warning popup stating that itunes volume has been turned down low, howereve he cannot click past this warning box nor x out of it. He has not been able to use his ipod for the past two months and we aregetting very frustrated. i have tried to uninstall itunes and quick player and then reinstall but nothing has helped. Other than this new issue he has been using it successfully for two years. Please someone help!!!!!!

Why can't he dismiss the dialog box? Can he see the button on screen? Is it a screen resolution issue?

My low volume button doesn't work on my Iphone 4, how can I fix it?

Okay so I dropped my iphone in the parking lot garages of my apartment complex and the ground was cement, when i picked it up the screen wasn't cracked or anything so i thought it was okay but once i started listening to music and I wanted to lower the volume and so I pushed the low volume button but nothing happen....The high volume button works fine but now the low volume button so if you want to lower the volume on my phone now you have to do it manually....Also after the drop i turned off silent mode on the side and the clicking sound wasn't there and I checked in the settings, it said it was on and the volume was on but I heard no clicking sound!!! How can I solve these two problems? Can I go to an Apple Store and let them fix my iphone if I don't have AppleCare?

Hi there Jaz94,
I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps found in the article below.

No sound vs low volume

I recently experienced the loss of all sound on my phone. It began after I unplugged the ear phones. I could not hear it ring and I could not hear anyone on the line although they could hear me. It was basically dead for about 4 hours or until I plugged the ear phones back in causing something to reset or whatever. It works fine now and Apple asked that I call when it occurs again so that we can try and trouble shoot and narrow the problem. I may have a defective phone.
I do not think this has any correlation with the "low volume" problem that everyone is talking about. I will agree with another writer that the volume is low until you activate the speaker but I have been using the speaker/hands free since the first day so perhaps that is why I have never experienced low volume. I think if the speaker is activated everyone will experience normal sound volume.

I installed the Audigy 2 ZS last night. Updated everything, all of the drivers. I plug in my speakers, and nothing at low volume. I turn on music, and theres nothing. If I turn the volume all the way up, theres distortion, white noise, and a bunch of static, but I can hear the music very faintly. I've disabled the onboard audio, and followed the FAQ, but nothing. Any ideas?
Output volume is set with "Wave" and "Master" controls. Max the Wave and control with Master.
In many cases if PSU is weak --> you get issues of this type. Try to remove (temporarily) devices like CD/DVD, floppy, etc. (just remove power/data cables) to see if PSU is the culprit for your issue.
Also, have you checked/tried
- audio HW acceleration and SR conversion quality --> set both max
- audio codecs --> reinstallation can be helpful
- muted all other sources but the one(s) you're using (i.e. all other sources can be muted if only playing audio files)
- digital output only set properly (speaker settings/THX console)
- speakers connected as should (2/2. --> green jack, etc.) and plugs properly pushed in
- speakers set correct (2/2., 4/4., 5., 6/6., 7.)
- used different output device drivers on audio players (DS/MME/WDM/...)
- ASIO capable player --> shows if you have sound driver issue (creative/windows)
- reinstalled directX, WMP (updates audio codecs)
- etc.
