Music Video Playback

Tell me if I'm wrong, but after watching a music video, I get a black screen and won't go to the next video. If I hit the fwd button, I get the prior video menu and can select another video. Is this the way its suppose to work?
Is there a way to play all videos in a row? The playlist plays the song, but not the video.
Thanks

I just create a playlist from within iTunes that has nothing but music videos within it (in my case, all from the iTunes Store) and then manually drag it to the iPod nano image that is shown within iTunes. I'm using the manual management method for my nano, I don't think that would make any difference.
In any case, it works because when I go into "Videos > Video Playlists" on the nano and select my playlist and then select the first video in the list they play back-to-back. I can also skip tracks while they are playing and it continues to the next video and then the next (i.e. it stays in back-to-back playback).
And it appears to work with both smart playlists and standard playlist that I create within iTunes. I suspect the playlist must contain nothing but music videos (no audio-only tracks) but I haven't actually tried mixing track types to see what happens under those conditions (maybe that would work also).

  • No sound on Music Video Playback

    Hi,
    iTunes mysteriously stopped audio when playing music videos from the library - All ok with songlists and podcasts. Quicktime has the same issue.
    VLC will play them ok.
    Have checked every setting I can see /think of, but no luck - Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    Thanks Kay,
    All video files are "MPEG1 Muxed". The thing is, I have added these to the itunes library from an old Windows machine and they have been playing good but just suddenly stopped playing sound. They are still on the windows machine - should I trash and reinstall?
    Thanks

  • Music video playback issue with 10.4

    Previous to Lion and iTunes 10.4 if I was view a playlist in coverflow and one of the songs was a video this video would play full screen and when it was finished iTunes would return cover flow and continue to flow through the playlist.  In 10.4 after the music video finishes I am either returned to the desktop if I was previously on the normal full screen iTunes view or retuned to the coverflow with it not tracking the songs, if viewing coverflow in full screen.  Any idea on how to make it work?

    Do you have a SATA hard drive? I have the same problem you describe when trying to play videos in iTunes. Do the previews of music videos on the iTunes web site play OK? If they do you probably have the same problem with SATA HD and iTunes incompatibility. Not sure who is going to fix that problem and when. I have found one fix that worked for me. Copy your video(s) to a flash drive and then play them from there. It's a workaround and you shouldn't have to do it but it does allow you to watch the videos.

  • 2.0 - Can you play Music Videos in a playlist one after another

    I'm at work and unable to test. Does the "new" Take2 finally allow users to create their own MTV?

    I'm equally disappointed/frustrated. We bought three of these to play easily-updatable video presentations, announcement clips and short films for my church. But it simply won't work for that purpose. Apple TV plays one video, then back to the menu. There's still no way to play any sort of multiple videos in succession, and that just seems ridiculous to me!
    There are actually people who take the time to reply to (the many) threads like this one with, "Well, Apple didn't advertise it with that functionality". Wow - that's true, I guess, but when something's a no-brainer, it's a... oh, never mind.
    The kiosk market, music video playback, successive short films or home videos shown for parties. Apple has really missed the mark on this. It's a real shame for an otherwise great product.
    I guess onto eBay go three Apple TVs.

  • ITunes 7.4 won't play music videos

    When I doubleclick on a music video, iTunes 7.4 won't play the video, only the music. Music videos where playing fine with prior versions of iTunes. No matter which option I choose in the Video Playback preferences, iTunes won't launch the video. Restarting iTunes didn't bring back music video playback either. Podcasts and Movies are playing just fine though.
    Any help ?
    Thanks

      I had the same problem and I landed here - OS10.7, had iTunes 10.5.2 *thinking* it was playing - acts like it was?, shows pause icon - no audio, no actual playback.  ...Scrubber dot didn't move onPlay click. (And, dam, I was hungry for music!), but..  That's where I discovered it.  Of course, I had browser audio probs, too - YouTube, Hulu - and Skype - any app output audio was affected...
       I struggled with this for at least a day!  Frustrated, I took out my other OS10 boot drives and tried troubleshooting...  No dice.  I halted CoreAudioD (whew) out of desperation...  I checked my audio lines..  Then I remembered I installed a trial of ProTools with an Avid audio driver (maybe looking for Digi-approved devices) at around the time of trouble.
         My SysPref audio panel was showing only Avid's device - no line in, no ext spkr..  So, I ran the ProTools uninstaller to try that. That's where EVERYTHING went back to absolutely normal! (After the restart).  SysPref Audio panel shows all!  I selected LineOut (for me), and I got it.
         iTunes and other audio-service-consuming apps suddenly didn't take 4 minutes to launch!, and my Lion install was like I first had it.  ProTools has a dedicated uninstaller - install that clean.  If you have a PT install that works, check the iLok config - my iLok is active and attached, but not for PT 10.  Maybe it's avid device->CoreAudio, may it's due to the PT trial???... Whatever it was, for me, the problem lied there. 
         Hope that helps any of you guys.  Good luck and thanks for the direction, bros..

  • ITunes 10 - no way to stop music video, keep song playing?

    In an earlier version of iTunes (not sure how old) there was an option to stop music video playback but continue playing the soundtrack, by keeping the video in the "Now Playing" artwork window. Now the only options are to play it in the viewer, in a separate window, the iTunes window, a separate window, full screen or full screen (with visuals) -- but NO option to stop the video altogether.
    It doesn't seem like a big deal, but I don't want that video sucking up processing power when all I'm doing is listening to music while working. And I also don't want to cut videos out of my playlists altogether; that's not really a solution at all, just a workaround.
    I seem to recall it was pretty easy maybe just clicking on the preview window? Now all that does is open the video in a new window (and closing that window stops the song.
    SO -- any thoughts? Or is the option there somewhere and I just haven't found it? Thanks in advance!

    Really!? No way to do this? It seems like such a waste. Do I REALLY have to open the videos in Quicktime Pro, export the soundtrack, import that into iTunes, and remove the videos from my playlist? Because that's the only way I can think of to work around this.
    But it seems like such a hack.

  • HT1304 ITunes Music Video Gone

    I can't seem to fine the Music Video playback anywhere.  I have the most recent version (10.6.3) and I get the audio fine, but no video feed.  The Video Playback option, under the view menu, is grayed out and unavailable.  I have selected for video to play in the visualizer, but this dosn't work either.  Additionally, the menu options I see are different than the ones in the Apple Support article.  I don't know if thats because the articile is from 2009, or because my software is acting up. 

    Nevermind.  Just found our that it was because I had multiple speakers selected.  Seems like there should be a warning, error, or something for that. 

  • No Audio Playback in Music Videos that were converted from MPEG to MPEG-4

    Friends -
    I am using iTunes as the default player for all types of audio files. I have not downloaded any supplemental video or audio Codec files (yet). Windows Media Player (11.0.6001.7000) is my default player for videos. When I recently converted a batch of old music videos from MPEG format to MPEG-4 format, I lost the audio playback on the converted files when trying to play back using iTunes. Audio works fine on the original MPEG files from iTunes. After syncing my Video iPod, the video playback is fine on the MPEG-4 files, but there is still no audio. Any suggestions?

    Try using MPEG Streamclip to convert the videos; more information on this issue is available in this article.

  • In the Quicktime 7 A/V controls, how fast is the 2x playback really because it isnt twice as fast. I shot a music video on the 2x setting and when we slowed the footage down to half time, it did not line up.

  • Video playback in mixed (video and music) playlists

    How can I set a video playlist to play both the songs and the videos (not just the audio from the video)? My 5G ipod would allow both video playback and songs from the video playlist menu. On my 160g classic, I only see/play the videos on the mixed playlists from the video playlist menu.

    The 3ivX codec is in your quicktime library folder, normally: root/Library/QuickTime, but I don't think, that Apple encodes their movies with an unsupported codec. Maybe there is another unsupported codec in your library that creates the iTunes-stuttering or the reason for your problem is completely different. I paste here the content of my library folder. If you have anything else in your folder, quit Quicktime Player and iTunes (if they are running) , remove the plug-in and try your movie again in iTunes. Hope, this helps.

  • How do I get my ipad2 to play the music videos as video during playback in music similar to my iPod?

    I would like to play back all my music and music videos together like on my iPod, but when I play the music videos from the music app, they only display a thumbnail picture when the video is playing. I like to mix up my audio only songs with my music video songs. Do I need a separate app to acomplish this?

    Did you check to see that shuffle is is turned off?  To do this, while playing a song tap the cover art to reveal the additional controls if they are not already visible (see photo below).  Then tap the shuffle button (bottom right) until it turns white (white is off).

  • Music Video does not playback it looks like a white negative!!

    Please please help...I have downloaded itunes7 and now I cant watch any of my new or old music video's...the music plays but the video looks like a white negative...you can make out the faint outline of people and things moving but nothing else??????????????
      Windows XP  

    I read a solution somewhere that worked for this music video problem, that was before i gave up on my music skipping and reverted back to i-Tunes 6 (so music no longer scratching but videos not working without delay/skipping.)
    Anyway the solution was, Quit i-Tunes, select start menu -> control panels -> quick time. Click on advanced tab, uncheck box next to enable direct 3D video acceleraion and then open i-Tunes
    Hope that helps you

  • Music Videos: Non stop playback... how?

    Hello.
    I have some music videos in mp4 format.
    How can i make my atv play them one after the other , like the music files, without manually pressing play each time a video ends?

    Annoyingly you can't - many have requested this but it can't be done currently, and there are no known workarounds (eg playlists).

  • How do I play iTunes Music Videos on my PC

    I bought a music video on my iPad and want to play it on my Laptop.
    I can't find anywhere on iTunes on my Laptop where that option comes up. I can search the same music video on the iTunes store on my laptop and it comes up for sale again.
    I used to play them on my PC all the time, but haven't tried it in a year. Did the support for this get removed from iTunes for some reason?
    Yes, I have already asked it to sync purchases.
    Not sure if anyone else is having issues, but I've had more problems since I upgraded to iOS 8 and all the subsequent versions of 8 than I've ever experienced upgrading Windows on a PC, since they came out with Windows ME. Certain features in a bunch of apps stopped working, video playback freezes all the time (this is on an iPad 4), and stuff that I have just bought, regularly comes up telling me that I haven't purchased it, even though I have a receipt for it.
    HELP! I really wish I could roll back to iOS7.X, even 8.1 really, really *****!

    This is for the people at Apple: The iPhone is fantastic and has changed my life, but please work on
    enabling iPhone users to view continuous music videos like iPod users can.
