No audio on video ipod

I have the ffmpeg software but the file wont copy over to the ipod in h.246 i think it is. so then i bought quicktime pro and now i have no auidio.... wat a nightmare. do u have any suggestions

QTime Pro and ffmpegX can only address the video aspect of what I assume is a "muxed" MPEG clip you wish to convert for iPod use. These applications require a 2-step conversion process in which you first convert the video to an intermediate format with combined separate audio and video data streams and then convert the intermediate file format to a final iPod compatible file. Since you already have QT Pro and ffmpegX, suggest you simply add MPEG StreamClip to handle the audio. There are probably a number of discussions to which you can refer for use of this software.
Also be aware that there are several applications (including Forty-TwoDVD-VXPlus, Export2QT, MPEG2 Works 4, etc) which will perform this entire double conversion process as a seamless workflow process. Most such apps run from $15-$25. Each has its own pros and cons and may handle slightly differing file formats.

My 30 GB video ipod plays video but they have no audio

i have a 30 gb video ipod and the videos i put on it do not play audio i have used the mpeg4 streamclip and it still doesnt work please help me

You can use itunes convert mov and mpg to mpeg-4. One thing though, is that if you convert an mpg (mpeg-1 or mpeg-2) muxed (muxed means that the video and audio are put together on one single track) than you loose the video or sound when converting them to mpeg-4 from itunes. If your videos are muxed you must find another video converter on the web. You can find out if the original video that you are trying to convert for the ipod is muxed by opening the original video in quicktime and then click on the Window menu then click on Show Movie Info this will show you if the file is muxed.

Audio and video out of sync on iPod

The videos I have imported to watch on my iPod appear to play well with one major exception. The audio and video are badly out of sync. I have yet to find a solution to the problem. Can someone please help me?

5G iPod Audio and Video not in Sync

I bought an iPod 30 GB a couple of days before. I was trying to download a movie to it which is in MP4 format. The original movie was in AVI format and I used Videora iPod converter to convert AVI -> MP4, but when I try to view the movie in my iPod the Audio and Video are not in Sync at al. The audio is way ahead of the video. Please someone let me know how to fix this problem. I turned off Equalizer and all other fancy settings in the iPod but it still didn't help.

some encoders have this problem occasionally. I've seen it very frequently in ffmpex when the source is avi. not sure what you're using, but so I'd suggest you try a different software. I'm getting very good results out of handbrake or 42.

Video iPOD.. playback stops then video starts.. no audio

I have had the video ipod for @ 1 month .. I put a few movies from a dvd using Videora and DVD Decrypter and they worked great. Then, I believe, after the iPOD software update now the original movies and new movies work for short while then it looks like it pauses.. then the video starts back up and works fine but I have no audio.

I'll copy and paste instructions on how to roll the iPod back to a previous install WITHOUT having to deleted it all and start over. They were:
This is step by step what I did (on a Windows system)
Step 1: Make your ipod a hard disk.
Open your ipod options in itunes and click the option making your ipod an external drive.
Step 2: Make sure you activate "Show Hidden Files and Folders" on your computer.
Step 3: Go into "My Computer" (with your ipod connected) and open up your ipod by clicking on that drive.
Step 4: Select the "iPod_Control" folder and then select the "Device" subfolder.
Step 5: There is a file in there called "SysInfo" -- open it.
Step 6: When I did this, my computer asked me what I wanted to open it with... I chose the generic text reader. When it opened, there were several lines of text, I found where it said "buildID" and then I replaced the number that was there with: 0x05108000 (6.1).
Step 7: Close this text file. It will ask you if you want to save, and yes, you do.
Step 8: Now run an older updater, either Updater 2005-11-17.exe or iPod Updater 2005-10-12.exe. You may have this in your ipod folder (probably under "Program Files") or you can load it using the software that came with your ipod. When it loads, make sure you click "UPDATE" instead of "RESTORE"
That should do the trick. If you still have problems, please state what specifically they are and I'm sure that I, or someone here with more knowledge than me, can help.

Playing Audio Books On My Video iPod

I have a new 80 gig video ipod. I puchased an audio book from iTunes. The book downloaded to my computer just fine and I can play the book on my computer. File is located in the Audio Book folder and is in the M4B format.
The book is on my iPod, located in the Audio Book folder. When I select the file to play, it shows that it is playing for about 3 seconds and then goes back to the main menu. It never starts playng.
Further, whenever I sync my computer and iPod, the play count keeps going up. It now says that I have played the file over 30 times when in fact, I haven't heard one word of it.
I hope someone can help.

I posted about this problem yesterday as I was having the same problem. I contacted iTunes customer service using their email form on that page. I heard back from them in about 10 hours. They authorized me to download the book again. It plays like a charm now.
Apple has superb customer service. I was treated with courtesy and promptly each time I contacted them about this problem and a couple of more issues that were my stupidity.
I'm very pleased with Apple! !

Record video/Audio into Qtime directly to mpeg 4 (video ipod format)

I have tried but can't seem to accomplish this. Is it possible to "record" into Quicktime, video from an external source and immediately create the format that plays back correctly on a video ipod? I know I can input a large quicktime file and then convert it for a few hours to the "Movie to iPod" format, but is there a way to skip that step? I see that I can input to an MPEG 4 format and an H.264 but both of these also reqire lengthy conversions. No way aroun d that?

Hi -
Nope. You need either a hardware solution that works in real time like the Blackmagic or a software solution that converts the files. If you have Final Cut Studio it comes with Compressor software that will allow you to create H.264 files.
There may be other software solutions out there, but if you are using software, you will need to allow for the time taken to convert the files.
Hope this helps.

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 another cable
- 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.

Ipad background audio from video when multitasking

Hello.
This is a request if people can either feedback On their present experience or try this out themselves first and feedback.
I have an ipad 1. When ever i try to get background audio to play from video when multitasking in another app, eg safari, from any video app including plex, airvideo, vlc, and the original apple video app. All that occurs is that the icon changes to the ipod and a random song is played from my music library instead of the audio from the video i was watching. This does not matter if the video file is streamed or stored on the ipad itself.
There is one slight and occasional proviso to this, as at times if the video file is tagged in itunes as 'music' rather than 'movie' or 'tv show' etc then it does on occasions work, and on occasions youtube videos will play in the background. But most of the time these aspects also dont function int he background with the ipod icon instantly replacing which ever video app icon i tried to use in the background.
Now my sons iphone 4 manages to function correctly and always plays video in the background when multitasking.
I have asked this question before on this forum, with no response, so booked a visit to my local genius bar. Where they checked my ipad and agreed it wasnt working as ios should, then interestingly they attempted to do the same on an ipad 2 and it failed to work in exactly the same way. Their response was that this was obviously a fault of the ipad ios, possibly due to the ipad having a separate video app where as the iphone has video within its generic ipod app.
I did the usual by informing apple via of this bug through the feedback system, and requested that the genius bar do the same. But having thought about this, and failed to see any other users on this forum who are also puzzled at this lack of what i think is an important function, i wonder if this means that i am the only one who likes to listen to video when im browsing, so dont need it, or wether everyone elses ipads function as ios should do, and for some reason both my ipad, and the ipad 2 tested in the shop are at fault.
So can i request if others reading this can have a go to see if their ipad will play background audio from video when multitasking, or if the same problem occurs.
Thanks very much this is really appreciated.

Oops clicked the wrong button, I meant to click a 'helpful answer' as it hard to have a correct answer to such a question.
But thanks for the replies.
It looks like this is a bug in ios solely for the ipad, as it does work fine on the iphone although wonder which way the ipod touch will perform. interestingly it looks like i may also be in the minority of wishing to listen to video files as I browse:)
Which probably means apple may never get around to sorting it, as no one else uses the function.
Anyway thanks for the replies, if any one else wants to see the bug have a go and comment, i find it funny how I seem to be the only one to have found it to date.

HT2494 what connector to buy to transfer audio and video from macbook to tv?

what connector to buy to transfer audio and video from macbook to tv? I read that if I buy the normal mini display port to hdmi converter that the audio will not transmit through my tv. I there a certain thing I need to buy to make this happen? I have a Macbook 13 inch Early 2008.

You can sync photos and videos to your iPad via your computer's iTunes.
To sync photos, connect and select your iPad on the left-hand sidebar of your computer's iTunes (you can enable the sidebar via option-command-S on a Mac), and on the right-hand side there should be a series of tabs, one of which should be Photos - if you select that tab you can then select which photo folders to sync to the iPad. There is a bit more info on this page. You will need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad - synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync.
If the videos are films that you want to go into the Videos app then you first need to add them to your computer's iTunes library via File > Add To Library, and you can then use the Films/Movies tab to select and sync them
Syncing media : iTunes: Syncing media content to iPod
What format are the videos in that you want to download, and have you got an app on your iPad that supports that format ?

Problem with TV out, only audio, no video

I has just bought a new ipod video 30GB and I also bought a A/V cable
of apple. But when I connect to my television. Only hear audio from
television but no video.
I tried a lot of ways as folows:
+ video setting : changed TV out --> ON
+ I tried restone ipod to factory condition
+ I tried to change the position of 3 connectors (Yellow,Red, Whitle)
of A/V cable (according to standard, Yellow is video connector).
+ I tried some tips from Discussion Techniques from Apple Forum
But I still can't see video, just hear audio from Television.
What's problem?
I think Ipod only send the audio signal, not video signal.
Can you help me to solve this problem?
Thank you very much.

As well I had the same problem with my i-pod and the one of my wife. The solution was simple:
config: i-pod 60Gb; i-pod 30Gb
cable: no name audio/video A/V cable
TV-out: select ask (not on!!!)
cable into TV: white on white
yellow on red
red on yellow
There are no problems with bad video quality if volume is high, just working fine
What may be the problem: I think, the automatic detect (if you put your setting for TV-out on your i-pod to on) is not working. As well as using only headphones there must be an electronic cirquit detection; means with no Apple stuff just not working. As well there are the yellow and red cable changed; means white and yellow have audio; red video.
Working so for video and diashow on my pod each time I´ve to select TV-Out manually starting video or Dia Show. In that moment both applications are starting in small windows, not in Full Screen mode on the pod.
The order to connect TV or i-pod doesn´t matter; it´s just the manual setting the i-pod for TV-out.
I hope, the info can help you.

Poor Video (iPod to TV)

I have audio and video when I try to view my iPod on a TV, but the video is very poor. I originally read that you had to cross connect the cables (that somehow the signals did not match up with the rca cables). At any rate, I tried that with no success. I finally bought cables by Re Trak specifically for iPod to TV. Still, I am having no success. As I said, I can get the sound, but the quality of picture is extremely poor. The quality of the file should be good as I downloaded it from iTunes (TV Shows). That said, even when I convert my own files using third party software, I have the same problems. Surely, someone out there knows how to resolve this issue.
Anyone?

The quality of the picture is only as good as the original video. Many videos look very nice in iTunes (in the small window) or on the iPod with the video only being 320x240 but this is only HALF the normal size (actually one quarter) so on the TV is it blwon up to fit the normal 640x480 (actually 720x480 but that is another discussion) so it likely will look cruddy.
So the first question is, the video your are trying to watch on the TV, are they lower than 640x480 in resolution?

5G Video ipod hook up to tv_No Video

I see this topic has been discussed in the past but I do not see any resolution. Is there one?
I have a composite apple issued cable, tv settings > OUT ... Audio, NO VIDEO
I've tried using the dock set up, same deal.
Is this a firmware issue or something?

Maybe this will shed some more light on this ....
Even with the tv out setting being turned 'on', the video is still displayed on the ipod screen. Is this supposed to happen? If not, something is amiss in the ipod itself, it's as if the settings have no effect either way, tv on or off or ask for that matter. However, audio responds to the changed setting.
