My ITunes video is studdering....help

I recently purchased a TV episode of sci-fi's battlestar galactica through ITunes and the audio works just fine when I play it, but the video studders and it constantly falls way behind the audio. Anything I can do to fix this?

hiya!
hmmmm. it's probably worth checking if the DirectX and video drivers are up-to-date on your Dell.
the following article is on audio issues, but it has good links on DirectX and updating drivers:

  • Itunes Video Problems Please Help

    All of my videos imported onto itunes, except for one I just recently download. It is the same mpeg4 format as all the others, and there is no reason I can think of that it will not import. Can anyone please help me?, as I would really like to have this file on my ipod.
    Thank you very much!

    Your video you purchased from ITunes plays correctly because it was properly produced to work on the IPOD. As to your other questions:
    "the latest being the superipod convertoror something like that."
    If you don't know then I don't know.

  • ITunes Videos (Both Movies and TV Shows) are skipping/ studdering.

    iTunes Videos (Both Movies and TV Shows) are skipping/ studdering.
    These videos were taken from my hard drive, converted with Format Factory, then placed in itunes.
    ON ipad the videos playback perfectly, but in itunes itself it fails drastically.
    Same problem happens with quicktime. If i open these videos up with quicktime, it studders and skips, while if i open it with VLC, it works fine.
    I have already disabled 3d acceleration, which helped a very small bit.
    The Rest of itunes runs smoothly, just video playback is screwed
    Specs:
    HP Envy 14
    Intel i5 quad core processor 2.53 ghz
    6 gb ddr3 ram
    Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
    Itunes 10.5.1
    Quicktime 7.7.1

    Update
    It turns out that the reason for not playing TV shows and movies is not the network.
    Something happened with the files while copying them from the Macbook to the NAS station.
    I noticed that after copying a TV show from the NAS Station back onto the Macbook Air drive; it was not possible to import that file into iTunes. iTunes ignored importing that file.
    On the other side the TV shows will be played by Quicktime, either from the NAS station or from the Macbook.
    It might be important to mention that the NAS station is not OSX formatted.
    Does someone know what happened ?
    Regards

  • Hello can some please help I am trying to watch my HBO go on my apple tv I have sound not picture. I can watch my iTunes videos and youtube so I know it works. it is working

    Hello can some please help I am trying to watch my HBO go on my apple tv I have sound no picture. I can watch my iTunes videos and youtube on my airplay with my ipad and everything is updated so I know it works. But not on HBO go, Max go, showtime go.

    What you want to do does not work with an iPd running iOS 5. See the screenshot.
    The latest update for HBO GO does allow for AirPlay on Apple TV - sound and video - but only on devices running iOS 6 and Apple TV running 5.1.1 or later - according to the app description.

  • I have just upgraded to 10.8 on my macbook pro and now I can't access itunes, videos and there is no sound - anyone help?

    I have just upgraded to 10.8 on my macbook pro and now I can't access itunes, videos and there is no sound - anyone help?
    It is an old macbook pro probably 6yo with the back lit keys - not under applecare anymore obviously. I downloaded the upgrade last night which took quite a while longer than it should have.
    Anyone else experienced this and can suggest something? many thanks Jo

    Run Software Update, wait till all the updates have finished downloading then restart the mac.

  • Itunes video playback started  crashing and no longer able to view on apple tv ideas?

    hi
    since yesterday after everything working ok all videos played fine

    message about check network, check itunes update etec
    any help for a dummy appreciated

  • I have the new ipad.  I am in the process of trasferring movies that were not purchased thru itunes from my PC  to the ipad.  My GB ipad allotment is almost used up.  How do I get the remaining movies into the cloud or does it only take itunes videos?

    I have the new ipad and I'm trying to transfer videos from my PC to the ipad.  My GB allotment is almost used up and I want to utilize some of my free cloud storage.  How do I do this or does the icloud only take items purchased thru itunes?

    iCloud cannot help you - it's not a storage device, but primarily a syncing and backup service.  You have to decide which videos to put on your ipad as you cannot add more memory to it.

  • My macbook pro runs slow, iTunes videos keep stuttering. Nothing has worked to solve this issue. Macbook Pro 13-inch mid 2012 2.5GHz i5 with 8GB RAM upgrade.

    Hello everyone.
    I have been having this issue for a few months now and nothing works to resolve it. The biggest issue is that iTunes videos constantly stutter ever few seconds, the audio portion of the video is not effected. The most I have open at once is Safari, Skype, and iTunes, and possibly Open Office. Videos will even stutter with nothing else open other than iTunes. At times it sounds like the computer is running something in the background from hard drive noise.
    I even upgraded the RAM to 8GB and it still has this problem! Nothing looks wrong in Activity Monitor other than occasionally the memory usage spikes up to 6GB, but even then the memory pressure graph is green. I dont understand how these non-intensive programs can use that much. The hard drive is barely 1/3 full.
    Please help with a solution as nothing has worked so far. Thanks!

  • I have just upgraded to OSX Maverick and now my Apple TV has taken over my iTunes videos. I have tried turning off homeshare and iHave gone into system prefs and disabled the remote, but the problem persists. Any ideas.

    After upgrading to OSX Maverick my Apple TV  has taken control of my iTunes videos insisting I have to watch it on my TV. I have tried disabling home sharing on iTunes and on the Apple TV menu, I have also checked the disable Infrared facility in Systems Prefs Security. Even if I put the Apple TV in standby as soon as I hit a key on my iMac, Apple TV comes back on and on my Itunes screen I get the Apple TV logo imprinted on the screen, meaning I can no longer watch it on my MAC, I have run out of ideas. Can anyone help.

    I think you're headed the right direction. There is an AirPlay icon (on mine it is up near the play/pause controls) that I believe is used to set the default desitination for the video to play.
    I'd never seen your issue before, but opened iTunes on a recently-upgraded-to-Mavericks MacBook and it did exactly as you described. While the video was loading, I switched the AirPlay option to the computer instead of ATV and it began playing locally (after a delay as you'd mentioned). I then read this page, which is actually quite old: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1091073, which lead me to the icon near the play/pause button. It now has Computer selected on it, and defaults to play locally instead of the ATV even after quitting and reopening iTunes. I hope that is helpful.

  • ITunes Extras for The Help not playing

    I bought The Help in HD with iTunes Extras. I can't seem to play any of the videos such as the deleted scenes. I contacted Apple Support and they sent me another file to download again. The same problem still occurs though. Apple said that they'll look into it.
    I broswed my computer hard drive and found the missing files for the bonus videos. They're all located in C:\Users\Owner\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Downloads\The Help - iTunes Extras _ Tate Tayl.tmp\The Help - iTunes Ex 1.tmp. There's a total of 8 videos loacted in 8 different folders titled Tate Tal.tmp\The Help - iTunes Ex 1-8.tmp, but the files names are all titled download. They can't be opened in iTunes Extras because they don't have the correct file name.

    I've seen a few of these threads now. I think the current build of iTunes must be failling to unpack the video files properly. I've had another hunt around the Extras folder structure and it seems the files are detailed in ...\controllers\data.js. This is the relevant section from the Batman Begins Extras:
      audioLoop : { src : "audio/batmanbegins_loop.m4a", loop : true},
    extras  : [
                  { thumb : "image_videoBox_mind.png",    structure: "shaping",  string : "Shaping Mind & Body",         src : "batmanbegins_shapingmindbody.m4v",  time: "12:49",      blurb : "Examining the construction of the fight sequences. "},
                  { thumb : "image_videoBox_tumbler.png", structure: "tumbler",  string : "Batman: The Tumbler",         src : "batmanbegins_batmantumbler.m4v",  time: "13:40",   blurb : "Goyer describes it as a cross between a Lamborghini and a Humvee. This featurette details it from conception to its current form."},
                  { thumb : "image_videoBox_journey.png", structure: "journey",  string : "Batman: The Journey Begins",  src : "batmanbegins_journeybegins.m4v",  time: "14:16",   blurb : "Interviews with Christopher Nolan, David Goyer, Christian Bale, production designer Nathan Crowley, as well as others. "}
    Using this it might be possible to work out what the temp files should be called. They need to go into a videos folder.

  • Itunes Videos freezing with windows 7!

    I just got a brand new dell studio last week; i installed itunes 9 with the 64bit and for the first few days it worked just fine and now I will be watching a movie on itunes and my computer will freeze and go black, requiring me to do a manual shut down because i can no longer move my cursor or click anything. I've heard other problems with windows 7 and itunes. When i insert a regular DVD into windows media it works just fine. So far my computer only freezes with my itunes videos but who knows next week it could be my music too!
    HELP!

    I had the same issue for windows 7. Right click on the iTunes setup file and run as administrator, it works.
