Movies played in DivX player audio glitching every few seconds?

I have an MBP & I've noticed that everytime I watch a video/movie w/ DivX Player the movie will glitch every few seconds. DivX Player is my preferred program to watch movies/videos, so I haven't checked to see if it's also doing it w/ Quicktime etc.
Any ideas?

If this were happening to me, I would try to narrow down the source of the problem by seeing if the problem persists by (1) logging in as a different user (e.g., Guest) and (2) starting up in Safe Mode.  (1) Helps identify problems specific to your account, e.g., login items, preference files, etc.,  (2) helps identify third-party system-level conflicts.
If you can get to it, you might try trashing Finder preferences at ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist.  You could do this with Terminal. Also, try dumping Sophos.

  • When I play either music or movies on my ipod touch it stops every few seconds and I have to restart the song/film.  AT the same time, it won't hold a volume contol.  It jumps louder or softer, or simply jams on either very low or maximum volume.  Help

    apple tv movie rental keeps pausing as if buffering every few seconds, started over and now says to lower the video res, what is up

    Thanks for the pointers folks. Yeah, 1.5GB is pretty poor isn't it? There are other suppliers, but you have to get a their phone line installed to access the internet so it's an £85 setup fee plus a day off work for a guy to come round and drill a hole in your wall before you even get to the monthly costs.
    Don't get me wrong though - I'm certainly not an Apple basher, but am equally frustrated with both them and the ISP.
    Virgin Media spend all kinds of money advertising their broadband as the fastest in the UK, but don't tell you (up front anyway) that you'll be cut off if you actually try and use it.
    Apple on the other hand carry on with their 'it just works' mantra, but with Apple TV this only applies if you meet certain criteria (again, not mentioned up front).
    I guess it aint a biggie, as i was gifted my Apple TV, and love all the other stuff it does, but from the number of posts on this forum can see that there's a lot of angry customers out there who want explanations as to why they're having similar problems to me.
    Will be very interesting to see if Apple release any kind of software update that turns the flash drive from a buffer to permanent storage, to at least ease some of the pain...

  • Video stutters/glitches every few seconds

    I have a video I recorded in iMovie with FireWire and rendered as a mov file. The file plays fine in VLC, but in a premiere elements 12 project, it stutters/skips frames every few seconds. Why can't software just work? What do I change?

    From the Premiere Elements Information FAQ http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1042180
    •What operating system? This should include specific minor version numbers, like "Mac OSX v10.6.8"---not just "Mac".
    •Have you installed any recent program or OS updates? (If not, you should. They fix a lot of problems.)
    •What kind(s) of image file(s)? When talking about camera raw files, include the model of camera.
    •If you are getting error message(s), what is the full text of the error message(s)?
    •What were you doing when the problem occurred?
    •What other software are you running?
    •Tell us about your computer hardware. How much RAM is installed?  How much free space is on your system (C:) drive?
    •Has this ever worked before?  If so, do you recall any changes you made to Premiere Elements, such as adding Plug-ins, brushes, etc.?  Did you make any changes to your system, such as updating hardware, printers or drivers; or installing/uninstalling any programs?

  • Audio drops every few seconds?

    I have a sisco box, and tonight its starting to drop the audio every few seconds. Kind of like its a skip.
    I reset the box and all that and its still doing it, does this mean I need a new box?

    This is rarely an issue with the box. Its either an issue with the channel, the signal leading to the box, or the signal between the box and his TV. Is this still happening? If so, is it happening on other channels as well? Please let us know so we can assist further.

  • Streaming freezing while playing, unless I touch the screen every few seconds to keep the streaming actively flowing.

    Streaming from iPad, through an app and the streaming will stop unless I touch the screen which seems to wake it up and will begin from where it stopped. Can anyone tell me why it does this? Kind of makes watching something a little annoying. It's as if the iPad goes to sleep, which stops the streaming. Is there a way to keep the streaming going without having to touch the screen every few seconds to have a the streaming continue as a steady feed?
    Thanks,
    David H.

    If you are streaming through an app it may need it to be awake so it can receive the feed on the iPad and then airplay it, depending on how  the app functions. You can set the auto lock to never

  • MPEG4 / Stops playing every few seconds.

    Hi Folks,
    I got QT Pro 7.3 installed on iMac G4 700Mhz. Every time when I am playing mpeg4 files movie doesn’t play smoothly. It keeps stopping every few seconds until end of the movie itself. Its look like is only mpeg4 behaving like that. However I got two other Macs at home (iMac G5 1.8 GHz and Powerbook G4 1Ghz) and those files playing in perfectly good manner.
    Before posting my problem I have been doing some research on apple discussion pages related to exactly the same problem. I have found few topics but I don’t know if they are describing the same situation. Someone said its something to do with hardware and nothing can be done. Perhaps too slow processor but my friend has got emac with the same specifications where files are played without problems. Anyway I will be very much appreciated for any advise.
    Thank you
    Peter
    Powerbook G4 12, iMac G5 20   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

    I tried a few more things and, like others, running the QT 7.0.1 reinstaller ( http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/quicktime701reinstallerforquicktime703.ht ml ) fixed the issue. iTunes complains, which probably means I cannot buy videos and shows on the store, but that is not a big issue right now.
    As you say, guess we have to wait for QT 7.0.4.

  • In the external Quick Time Player the clips stop every few seconds. What to do?

    In the last weeks I cannot play YouTube clips in the browser but only in the external Quick Time Player. But the clips stop every few seconds. What to do?

    If YouTube videos are buffering in you browser, then it sounds more like a problem with your Internet speed.
    If you contact your Internet Service Provider, they should be more than happy to help.

  • My flash player continues to buffer every few seconds after it starts

    My flash player continues to buffer every few seconds after it starts, it plays then buffers, plays then buffers. It worked just fine up until a few months ago. I’m not sure what changed. I am running windows vista. I checked the add-ons and the flash player is enabled. I tried turning off the popup blocker. I just downloaded the latest version and no change.
    Please help Thank you!

    This is the run without permision list. I wish I knew how to get rid of some of this stuff . Just talked to a friend of mine that has the same problem. I also just ran a speed test on youtube and it shows that streaming HTTP is running at an average of less than 100 kbps.

  • When watching my Apple TV (3rd gen) the picture jumps a few frame every few seconds, this happens when I rent a film or play back from my new Mac Pro, my Wifi is the Airport Express.

    When watching my Apple TV (3rd gen) the picture jumps a few frames every few seconds, this happens when I rent a film or play back from my new Mac Pro, my Wifi is the Airport Express.

    These may be different issues, but lets look at rentals first.
    Poor motion can result from mismatched output. If your source is 24 or 30 fps you should set the output of the Apple TV to 60 Hz, for 25 fps content use 50 Hz.
    Additionally motion software on the TV itself can cause the picture to jump, check your TV settings and turn off any motion settings in use,

    We can hear audio, but video blacks out every few seconds; picture comes back when we hit the tv's volume button. Everything seems to be plugged in well. The picture even starts out being sort of dim. And it goes through phases of working fine but then will randomly start blacking out again.  Any ideas?

    Don't worry, there is nothing wrong with your computer. I have the same issue, and it is a bug. Sometimes a restart solves it. Sometimes and if you use subtitles, you will see the first line being displayed but the second one not, etc.
    I have reported that to Apple and there is hope for a fix.

  • Bluetooth Audio sound cuts every few seconds

    Hi,
    The title pretty much expains all. Everything else works with my BT headset. Pairing is okay and I can hear the  sound from headset but ithe audio cuts on and off every few seconds. So the bluetooth audio is useless.
    I have  upgraded several times the driver. I even changed the BT adapter (the HW), but still same.
    Laptop is Elitebook 2350p 
    OS is Win 7

    Your notebook is an Enterprise/Business model. I would recommend posting this in the HP Enterprise Support Forums for better coverage.
    You can access the enterprise support forums at the following link.
    http://h30499.www3.hp.com/
    However, my own personal opinion is there might be an issue with the headset, not the hardware/software on the notebook. You mentioned even changing the bluetooth hardware and the issue remained, which leads me to believe it might have to do with the headset and Windows 7. Have you tried another headset on this notebook to see if the issue was the same?
