Movies, no picture, just sound on iPod

I have 5th Generation (30gb) iPod(2yrs old). I purchased 2 movies from the iTunes store. They show up and play in iTunes. I synced to my iPod, they both show up in the movies, but only the sound plays. On the screen no movie, just a little thumbnail of the movie and a progress bar across the bottom. This is the first time I have messed with movies and I have no idea how to correct this. Can anyone help me please? I wanted to watch these on my vacaton flight and I am leaving this Friday. I am very frustrated, I have been searching the support website for days to no avail. HELP!

On your iPod go to "Videos / Video Settings".
Then select "TV Out" and either set it to "off" or "ask".
Also, make sure you are accessing the video through the videos menu. If you have a video mixed in an audio playlist and you access it through that, you also won't be able to see the video.

  • Local cable channel - no picture just sound

    I keep calling and emailing Verizon about the two local access channels that have no picture, just sound.  I can't get them to fix it.  How do I get Verizon to fix this problem.
    Thank you for your help.

  • Bought musicvideo - no picture, just sound

    Hallo
    The music videos i've bought in itunes don't work anymore. I only hear the sound, but I can't see anything - the whole video it's just dark.
    I've already tried to move the video on the desktop and open it with Quicktime - no success.
    Does anybody know how I can fix this problem? I don't want to buy the videos one more time.
    Ps: My iTunes-version is 10.1

    Can't speak for videos in iTunes, but if QuickTime is only giving you sound, you may need to get the Perian codec pack.. http://perian.org/
    Try that.

  • No picture, just sound ?

    I can only hear the Apple TV's menu ... I dont get any picture. Any ideas? I know its in the right port. I connected component and HDMI and both do the same. Anyway to reset the Apple TV with the remote? or is there a button on it somewhere?

    Chris
    Is this an out of the box issue or have you had it all working previously. There is no external reset button that I know of, perhaps a power down and remove all cables for 30 seconds might help but it doesn't sound as though it will to me. This sounds like it might be a failed unit to me.

  • No Quicktime Movie in Browser Just Sound in Leopard

    New Macbook Pro, Leopard, Archive and install.
    Went to the Apple site today to watch the Leopard tutorial. All I could do is listen. No video. Tried a couple of other sites (Lynday.com) same issue. Quicktime in the browser (Safari) doesn't seem to work for video

    If you have an older machine that has been updated over the years you may have an out of date QuickTime plugin.
    Try this as a test:
    Open HD/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder and move the QuickTime Plugin.webplugin to your Desktop.
    Quit and relaunch any open browser and try the page again.

  • Movie has no picture or sound

    I just bought star trek on blueray and it came with a digital copy of the movie.. which i downloaded to itunes.
    I havent used this program for years.. but when i play the movie no picture or sound come up, but the timer is running like its playing something.
    other than the cover and the chapter pictures i see no movies whatsoever

    I've got a similar problem with downloaded movies. The timer runs, the chapters show up and the title of the movies but no audio or video. Contacted iTunes support where I got little to no support. Have done a clean removal and reinstall of iTunes and Quicktime but still nothing. I have a couple of older movies in my library that do play fine so problem seems to be in recent downloading? Corruption? Have tried 3 different downloaded and still nothing! paying for movies I can not watch is getting old fast!

  • Problem seeing picture on tv when ipod is connected to tv

    I cannot get a picture (just sound) on my tv when i connect ipod touch to tv using digital AV connector. I can watch Youtube but not content from Filmon (live TV streaming).
    I also tired with my ipad1 but read somewhere that it's not possible on the old ipad.
    Any suggestions?

    On the 4G and below iPod touch and the iPad 1, TV out ony works with apps that support TV out.
    iPad 2 and above, 5G iPod touch and iPhone 4S and above the TV out mirrors the devices screen unless the app specifically prohibits it.

  • No vids on website but just sound?

    I've been using playthisriff.com which uses quicktime, But recently i can't get a picture, just sound. I'm sure my itunes updated recently & was wondering if that has something to do with it?

    Your original movie is 800 x 437.
    Your OBJECT code in HTML is 500 x 216.
    Your displayed size is 366 x 216 (including 16 pixels for the controller), since scale=aspect.
    I found that in Windows, movies that have not the same displayed width and height as the original will not show.
    To avoid that, make sure that the displayed width and height are the same as the original size.
    Two steps:
    1. Resize your original movie to 366 x 200. It's proportional. Or use 400 x 219, which is half size of the original.
    2. Set width and height of OBJECT (and EMBED) to 366 x 216 (including 16px for the controller). Or 400 x 235 (including 16px for the controller)
    See if that helps.
    Also, I noticed a param error in your OBJECT code:
    <param name="type" value="video/quicktime" *height="216" width="500"* >
    The width and height shouldn't be there.

  • Question I just got my ipod and I am currently converting my top five movie

    to ipod format to be able to view them on my Ipod now I have two questions the first one is I have my fav movies saved in h.264 format each movie 1.5 gigs now when I converted my first one it created a duplicate of that specific movie my guess is one if the Ipod format and the other is the one I had originally in Itunes now my first question is if I sync it into my Ipod and then delete the duplicate movie that the conversion created, will I still be able to see the movie on my Ipod and the second question is does it make a diference which copy of the movie I delete, because I only wanna have one of each in my itunes, but I wanna make sure that the one I converted to ipod format is of the same quality of the original movie I had before converting it. So I guess I wanna know if saving the ipod converted one and deleting the original will lose quality. I know I saved the original one as a 1.5 gig so hopefully when I convert to ipod it doesn't compress the movie, if it does I would like to keep the original movie and delete the converted one. Sorry for the long question, but I just got my ipod yesterday and I'm loving it.

    thank you for the info well my question was I always had movies in my movie section in itunes now when I converted those into ipod format it created another copy of the movie. So I have two copies of evey movie now, so I wanna know if I can delete the copy tha was created and still have it stored on my Ipod or if I keep the copy that was created if I would lose any video quality and sound quality, I'm not sure what happens when we convert to ipod format just wanna make sure if I delete the old copy that I don't lose any quality

  • QT7Pro - Movies convert with no sound when converting to iPod

    I bought QT7Pro last night, wanting to convert movies (.avi and .mpg) I have on my computer. They play and have sound in QT just fine, but when I go to convert them to MPEG-4 or convert for iPod, the options claim to have no audio track and it winds up being a silent video. How can I convert my movies without losing the sound on them?

    QuickTime Pro doesn't (can't) export audio from muxed files (MPEG 1 or 2 and Flash).
    Use other software to export those formats to the iPod settings. A quick search through the iPod discussions pages (now over one million views) will give you some software ideas.

  • When I try to sync my iPod with iTunes I can't because it says it's over capacity. It's not. It's a 16 GB iPod, it's only 105 songs on there. No movies or pictures or such. Anybody got a word of advise?

    When I try to sync my iPod with iTunes I can't because it says it's over capacity. It's not. It's a 16 GB iPod, it's only 105 songs on there. No movies or pictures or such. Anybody got a word of advise? I've tried resetting the iPod but get the message that it's not possible cause i'm not connected to internet. I am though. Tried managing music manually. I've tried all the usual stuff.

    Go to Settings > General > Usage and see how much is shown available and how much is in "Other".
