No Audio from Real Player

This has been posted before both here and on other sites but to my knowledge no solution has been found. I use about ten different Macs and they all run Real Player fine apart from this one, a last edition PowerBook G4 15" 1.67 Hi-Res. When it was new Real Player worked fine, for example playing the live BBC Radio streams. Now it still appears to work but there is no audio at all, not even from the sample movie that plays when Real starts! One day it worked, the next, nothing! I have tried all the usual fixes and have upgraded to the latest version of the free Real player but still get silence. How strange! It works fine on all manner of other Macs but searching on the net shows a number of PBG4 owners with this problem. I wonder if it got broken when Apple produced the 'fix' to resolve the sound stuttering problems that plagued this model?

I've the same problem with a iMac G5! No sound, I can see the videos on Youtube, but no audio! I had this problem yesterday, then I updated to macOs 10.4.8 and then it worked fine. Today I saw a divx video and then no audio again on RealAudio! Pherhaps it's a conflict between different players!
I tried to reinstall RealPlayer, to repair disc, to delete preferences...
What can we do?

    Prior to put them to iTunes, you have to convert the video in compatible format.
    Best for that is Handbrake --> http://handbrake.fr/

  • Can't get song"s from real player

    I have a lot of songs saved in real player but since I added the Ipod Shuffle it won't even open. how can i get these songs onto my Ipod shuffle?

    I would first check and see what the format of the Real Audio songs are. If they are in RAM format, they will ONLY work with Real Player. You need them to be in MP3 format. That could be your problem. There are some converters out there that make RAM files MP3's but they cost a lot. You could try the poor mans way by playing the RAM or Real Audio song while you record it in MP3 format. Then the iPod can read it.
    You would need a plug jumper from line out to line in. Then you would need a MP3 recorder like Sound Forge or another product that would allow you to record and save it in MP3 format. Hope that helps.

  • Audio from flv player won't stop playing

    Hi, I have a swf loading in another swf that has a video player in it. When I remove the swf from the stage, the swf goes away but the audio from the swf keeps playing. Is there a way to tell that swf to stop playing from the parent swf?

    I have a document class referencing a class that contains the video player. The reference for the class is called vPlayer and the reference to the actual component in vPlayer is myPlayer.
    This is the code in my Document class that calls vPlayer:
                   if (window_mc.contains(thumbContainer_mc)) {
                        window_mc.removeChild(thumbContainer_mc);
                        next_btn.visible = false;
                        vPlayer=new videoPlayer;
                        vPlayer.x = (window_mc.x + 60);
                        vPlayer.y = (window_mc.y);
                        window_mc.addChild(vPlayer);
    and this is the code in the vPlayer class that calls the FLV component:
              public function makePlayer():void{
                            myPlayer = new FLVPlayback();
                   myPlayer.skin = "SkinOverPlaySeekMute.swf";
                   myPlayer.skinBackgroundColor = 0x70A16C;
                   myPlayer.skinBackgroundAlpha = 0.5;
                   myPlayer.skinAutoHide = true;
                   myPlayer.x = video_x;
                   myPlayer.y = video_y;
                   myPlayer.width = 550;
                   myPlayer.height = 309;
                   main_container.addChild(myPlayer);
                   myPlayer.source = myVideos[0]. @ URL;

  • Can't move MP3's from Real Player into ITunes

    i'm not sure how it has happened but my 'Real Player' music files & MP3's no longer automatically launch into I-Tunes. It looks as though ITunes is no longer my default player but when i try to rectify this i get a message saying "An error occurred while updating the default player for audio. You do not have enough access priveliges for this operation" !!! (This comes as a surprise as it is my computer!!!).
    I don't remember changing anything other than instaling LastFM recently (this has now been uninstalled).
    Any ideas what i can to make Itunes my default player again?
    thanks

    LastFM probably changed the settings on you. As is often the case, uninstalling doesn't remove/reset everything associated with the file.
    Have you tried changing the association manually or just with iTunes?

  • Moving music from Real Player to ITunes

    All my music is in Real Player. I just got my first IPOD and now I need all those songs to be in the ITUNES program. Is there a way to move it without downloading each CD all over again?

    There are converter programs available. The problem is that RA is a lossy compression so converting them to something else will only lose more information resulting in even lower sound quality.

  • No audio from mp4 player

    Hi
    I was given a wmv file which I converted to an mp4 file in Wondershare so I could open it in Premiere. The file is just audio from a webinar, so no video.
    I have cut the sequence that I want and tried to import it to the timeline two ways:
    1. I clicked the overwrite button but it has just brought it in the video layer (yes I did have only the audio selected). So whilst it plays there is no audio.
    2. I clicked the new item button and got a lot of options, wasn't sure which to pick so I clicked new sequence. And I have no idea what to do with it to be honest.
    So any advice anyone can give would be greatly appreciated. Whether it is convert the wmv to another format or how to bring in the audio as well would be greatly appreciated
    Thanks
    Nikola

  • No Audio from  DVD Player

    Mac Pro
    OS X 10.4.8 - QuickTime 7.1.3 -
    Having a strange problem when trying to play DVD's.
    DVD Player plays the images but I get no audio.
    I've fiddled with the DVD's language options and
    the DVD player controls but still nothing.
    So far I've had this problem with all twelve DVD's I experimented with.
    CD's, QuickTime, MP3, etc. files play fine - no problems so the problem seems to be DVD Player.
    Thanks

    I am having the same problem with my G5. It just started today. The most recent update I have done was yesterday to the latest version of iTunes. I have also updated my Powerbook but it hasn't seemed to have affected it yet. I have tried playing DVD's in the VLC media player and at first I get no audio as well but if I change the audio setting from "built-in (encoded)" to just "built-in" it pays back the audio fine. Any ideas?

  • No intelligible audio from Flash Player

    I just upgraded to Windows 7 Pro 32bit a few weeks ago.  Since then I have not been able to hear any sites that use Flash Player.  I can see video just fine, but not audio.  All I get is low, rumbling bass sound and scratchy, squeaky, intermittent high pitched sounds. I've tried uninstalling Flash Player 10 and reinstalling it to no avail.  I would love some help on this one.

  • No multi-channel audio from DVD Player or Quicktime?

    I have the A52Codec 1.7.6 installed. The codec preferences are set to output multi-channel audio. I have my Audio MIDI setup speaker configuration setup for multi-channel audio and the speaker assignment tests are all perfect. VLC plays back files with AC-3 soundtracks in perfect 5.1 multi-channel sound. Final Cut plays multi-channel audio properly as well.
    When I watch a DVD, it is decoded to stereo. The dialog on 5.1 always comes from the left and right speakers and never from the center channel. It doesn't matter whether I remove the A52Codec and try again the result is aways the same, 5.1 audio in Quicktime and DVD Payer gets decoded to stereo. It is not that extra channels are missing, if that were true I'd get no dialog at all.
    What do I have to do to make the DVD and Quicktime multi-channel audio decode as multi-channel audio and not stereo.

    I'm not sure if this will resolve your issue or not, but have you configured it using /Utilities/Audi MIDI Setup ?

  • No 5.1 Audio from NetFlix Player

    I've just subscribed to the NetFlix player and have found that there is no 5.1 audio on any title I would expect to have it. I started an online chat session with NetFlix, it was said that only titles that have 5.1 surround sound available will display either a DD+ icon or a 5.1 icon on the movie description page. I can't see any of these icons on the desciption pages so does this mean that no title on the UK catalogue has 5.1 surround sound, just bog standard Prologic. Very disappointed if it does.

  • No Audio From Flash Player

    I seem to suddenly have lost all audio whenever I play a
    video. In both Firefox and Internet Explorer, I can play a video,
    but there is no sound. Other programs such as iTunes work fine. It
    seems to be limited to just internet content.
    Any suggestions?

  • Losing audio when exporting from imovie to real player

  • Extremely poor sound quality on all apps after using Real Player!

    Hi there
    On my Leopard iMac (Core2Duo) I am experiencing extremely poor 'lo-fi-like' quality on all audio from all applications including iTunes, Quicktime and Safari as a result of using Real Player to play a file online.
    I very rarely use Real Player and this was the first time I'd used it in months to even a year. The file was a simple RAM file from a store website allowing me to listen to a sample of a music file. When played, the quality was low but I expected this from a music sample, and from Real Player. However, after closing Real Player, I noticed the sound quality had dramatically dropped to an almost un-listenable quality.
    I have restarted and uninstalled Real Player with no luck. The poor sound quality still comes through my internal speakers, as well as external speakers, so it seems like a software issue.
    Not sure what to do, please can anyone help as the audio is used all day every day on this iMac!
    Thank you

    Just tried it as I did get iLife with my Mac. GarageBand froze for the first few times I loaded it up, then I managed to get it to work. Played with the on-screen keyboard which produced perfect sound.
    Closed GarageBand, restarted iTunes, tested, working perfectly! Crystal clear sound back again!
    Thanks so much for that, really appreciated!
