Nano 3G videos appear on ipod, but no sound!

i put videos on itunes just like songs, and convert them to be playable on my ipod. but when i watch them through the ipod, theres no audio. if i watch them through itunes on the computer there is audio. help!

If the videos are multiplexed MPEG files then the audio and the video are muxed onto the same track. QuickTime, and therefore any application that uses QT like iTunes, the iPod, iMovie (Mac app), etc. expect two separate tracks, one video and one audio. So when you convert these muxed files, the video is played and the audio is not heard.
iPod plays video but not audio of some exported files

So you need to do a conversion on the file first. MPEG Streamclip is a popular one that comes in both Mac and Windows versions and is known to "repair" this problem.
There are other applications that can do this as well. Try searching the iLounge.com web site for more conversion help. But your root cause is the muxed MPEG files.

    Not true at all.
    You only buy the right to your own personal use.
    You do NOT have the right to distribute to others.
    This is illegal.  There is no doubt about it

  • New songs synced to my ipod wont play, the songs play fine on itunes and appear on ipod but wont play..any help appreciated

    New songs synced to my ipod wont play, the songs play fine on itunes and appear on ipod but wont play..any help appreciated

    So, if you select one of these songs on the iPods screen, and try to play it, what happens?  The iPod does nothing?  It skips to the next song?
    It's possible you will have to do a Restore on the iPod, if there is data corruption on the iPod causing this problem.  The Restore erases the iPod, and removes any corruption.
    NOTE:  There may be a hardware problem, such as the iPod's hard drive becoming unreliable, that is causing this problem and data issues.  It may continue to operate as long as its data stays mostly unchanged, but if you do a Restore to update the hard drive's data in a major way, it is possible that the Restore will fail and leave the iPod non-operable.

  • (HELP) video converted to ipod but without sond!!

    I have one Ipod Video 30g I converted one video to the Ipod but when I opened the file it was without sound and is happening with all the videos that I have, the image is OK but no sound at all!!
    someone can help me?

    Now you know why i ask,
    windows or OSX,
    It will only access OSX on a Apple Mac i suppose,
    with the integration of iTunes.
    Therefore save all that's on your iPod first if it important,
    then Re-format iPod using disk utility,
    up-plug iPod, then reconnect iPod
    then it should come up in iTunes, asking bla, bla-bla,
    Follow the instruction, from there all should be fine!
    Have fun,

  • How do you keep videos on the ipod but off your hard drive?

    When i tried to keep the videos off my hard drive but keep them on my ipod it deleted them off of my ipod also. is there any way i can just keep the videos on my ipod, but off my computers hard drive? thanks,
    keith

    you could simply add your movies to your ipod by syncing them. Adn then afterwards remove them adn manually manage your music on your ipod syncing with new music you want to add. Or another way is to burn your movies to a disc adn then whenever you want movies on your ipod then you can iport the movies from the disc to your harddrive and then sync your ipod and then manually manage your itunes adn sync of new music.

  • IPod nano 5th Gen appears in Finder but not iTunes

    I am trying to restore my 5th Generation iPod Nano, but it will not show up in iTunes 12.0.1.26. It does however appear in Finder as a disk image allowing me to access certain directories, like Calendars, Contacts, DCIM, Notes, and Recordings. I've tried resetting the iPod, putting it in Disk Mode, etc. I've gone through all the support. I've tried using iExplorer. Does anyone know anything else I can try?

    Hi jthias,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that your iPod nano is not appearing in iTunes and you have already completed some great troubleshooting. In this situation, I would suggest continuing troubleshooting by completing the steps in the attached iPod nano Troubleshooting Assistant.

  • My ipod nano 5th gen  wont play movies or videos on my ipod but plays them on itunes when i click on it the screen flashes black i have tried taking the movie off my ipod and putting it back on but it still won't work what should i do?

    My ipod nano 5th gen. won't play movies or tv shows but it plays them on itunes.  When I click  on it the screen flashes black. I have tried taking the videos off my ipod and then putting them back on but it still won't work. what should i do?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Videos Uploaded to Ipod  - But No Image

    Hi there,
    Another classic question.
    I have now managed to get my first video on my ipod, short video clip, and I hear the sound of the video perfectly, but there is no image of the video it wont play, it just shows the video title in the centre of the screen with a tv box icon in the corner.
    On a similar topic, how do I get album artwork to show up aswell?
    Thanks.

    The reason why you iPod isent playing videos is because its on TV OUT MODE....to take it off of this go on your iPod > Settings > look for TV OUT > turn it off....do this and you iPod will display video...
    Hope I Helped..!!!
    Happy Holidays!!!

  • Can't find my videos on the iPod - but there in iTunes??

    The music videos & TV shows I've paid for show up fine where they are supposed to on my iPod. About 1/2 of my video podcasts are showing up (Tiki Bar, DigitalLife TV, Diggnation (what a waste of space). Others show up under "Video" in iTunes, but are either not copying over to my iPod or I can't find them (definitely not under Videos). Also - a home movie in .mov is not showing up, as well as a Tivo file I brought over and converted to MP4. I can't find any consistency in why some videos are not playing on the iPod but do in iTunes. Any ideas??

    Did you get any message when syncing your iPod that some videos couldn't be copied over? The iPod can play a subset of the videos that iTunes & QuickTime can. Although there are other details, basically it amounts to a maximum resolution of 320x240 for h.264 codec videos & 480x480 for MPEG4 videos. If a different codec or a larger size was used in the video podcasts you are attempting to copy, they won't transfer.
    Also, the iPod puts the videos into various categories that match those in iTunes. You might want to check the Video podcast section in both iTunes & the iPod to confirm they match.

  • HELP...video goes on ipod but wont work

    Ok I posted this topic about a month ago too and i didnt get any help. I have the new Video Ipod and the videos i put on will load in my ipod but when i click to play them it goes to a black screen for about 30 seconds and then goes back to the menu page. PLEASE help. I have tried 2 different settings using videora and Im not sure if thats the problem. They play fine in itunes. Anyone know what to do?Ive been working on this for a month and getting very upset with it. Thanks!

    I use the application Handbrake
    Here are the specs of my videos that are on my iPod:
    MPEG-4 Video / AAC audio
    400 kbps (Video)
    128 kbps (Audio)
    320x240
    I'm not sure if Handbrake is only for Mac, but see if you can set these settings in Videora (I don't know much about this program, being that i have a Mac.)
    Hope this helps.

  • Video already on ipod, but won't play

    Videos I put into my iPod only play sound. I know it's not a problem with the file, because I put the video into my iPod before, and worked fine. When I play the video, it does show up in the videos section, but the display on the screen looks like an audio file.
    Anyone have any idea how to fix this?

    On the IPOD, go to Videos...then Video Settings....Make sure TV Out is set to off.

    Hi, there is a solution to doing this, which is to use software such as
    http://www.redchairsoftware.com/anapod/copygear.php
    The reason why this prog. over others is because
    1) i have used it myself on my PC and can say that it actually works!
    2) as this is the only one i have seen so far that actually says it can do videos - and it works!!!
    p.s. videos may take a biy of time - obviously!!
    hope this helps"""!!
