No audio on youtube or whenever I stream video

I never get any audio when I watch videos on youtube or when I stream windows media files. Is there a codec or something similar that I need to install?
TIA

Hi,
Try this:
No sound from some applications, but system alert sounds play (Mac OS X 10.3, 10.4)
Hope that helps.

I have no audio on ESPN app on Ipad2, streams video fine, it just started. What to do?

I have enjoyed the Watch ESPN app for a while now, all of a sudden no audio. Video works great. I have uninstalled and reinstalled, all other similiar work just fine, netflix, youtube, etc, is there some switch my young daughter may have switched. Why no audio?

Try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.

Whenever i stream videos the sound cuts off and the video stops shortly after, what can i do to stop this from happening?

The problem occurs sometimes on youtube and other online media players however others seem to have no problems, putlocker is one that has no problems whereas mp4upload does.
I have tried uninstalling flash player and re-downloading it to no avail

handled it nevermind

Is there a way to automatically control the audio volume on safari? Some streaming video sites (Hulu, in particular), like to try to deafen me with the commercials. And yes, I'm not an idiot, I know that I can manually control the volume.

I've been searching for some way to automatically control the volume, so the commercials on streaming sites (Hulu, for example), don't deafen me. And yes, I am aware that I can manually control the volume with the volume keys on the keyboard or the slider in the menubar.

This really frustrates me, small differences between the apps that shouldn't be there.
I understand you can't change the keyboard shortcuts to be the same/similar, but this is totally different. Let's hope it changes soon.

The startup disk may need repairing ...
Launch Disk Utility located in HD > Applications > Utillities
Select the startup disk on the left then select the First Aid tab.
Click: Verify Disk (not Verify Disk Permissions)
If DU reports errors, restart your Mac while holding down the Command + R keys. From there you should be able to acces the built in utilities in OS X Recovery to repair the startup disk.

Unabled to stream video from iPad with AirPlay

I'm having some difficulties getting video to stream from an iPad to my 2nd generation AppleTV over AirPlay. The iPad is able to stream audio just fine, but does not stream video through the built-in Video app.
When selecting to play the video to the Apple TV, the iPad screen stops playing the video and changes to the Gray screen that says the video is playing to the AppleTV, however it is not playing to the TV.
Both devices are running the most up-to-date software revisions. I have tried plugging the AppleTV into the router via ethernet cable to ensure that it's not a wireless problem, but this does not change anything. The only possible reason I am able to think of is that the wireless network these devices are using are not connected to the Internet.
If anyone else has suggestions, please let me know.
Thanks

I'm running iTunes on my iMac, using an Airport Extreme, and two Airport Express's..one configured as a repeater, and the other as a remote speaker. I'm using an ATV1 running 24/7 as an audio server, broadcasting music to the Airport Express. I have an ATV2 in my bedroom connected to the big screen there. That's the one that does not forward video from my iPhone 3GS to the ATV2, ONLY audio? Is it possible, that the system can't support the ATV1 running AirTunes w/remote speakers, AND AirPlay on an ATV2 simultaneously??
BTW, I found that the song title that popped up in the title box happened to be the tune that my iTunes on the iMac happened to be sitting on (wasn't playing though). It put that in the same box on the screen as the Movie title I was playing from the iPhone 3GS over AirPlay? Sure that's not a bug?

Why isn't Firefox playing any streaming videos anymore?...On youtube or wherever I go the audio keeps going but the actual video just skips and freezes up the computer..

Any video that is viewable on the internet(youtube, flash, etc.) does not play in Firefox. The video is shown and everything but when I click it the audio begins playing normally and the actual video itself skips horribly and my computer begins to freeze up.
== This happened ==
A few times a week
== After my little brother crashed my computer a few days ago(blue screen and everything).

Streaming video and audio (tv news)

a friend of mine here in England can watch bBBC news 24 on his mobile phone, should my BB be able to do or does it need some special extra softwarethat? or does it need some special extra software?

The curve 8330 handles some streaming formats... With the MobiTV app I'm told you can watch streaming video of various cable channels including news and discovery channels and such. You can also view some video clips from www.youtube.com Not the flash clips of course! As far as streaming audio you can download slacker radio and flycast and have a semblance of streaming audio. I'm hoping for winamp/real audio type support of streaming media very soon to listen to various internet radio stations that aren't included in the aforementioned radio apps. Sidenote: Money rules everything, everywhere

How to sychronise a streaming video and audio?

Hello everyody,
I created a player application which plays a streaming video together with a sound. In the beggining it starts ok and sychronised but later video goes slower than sound and as a result they are totally out of sych at the end. I believe the problem is that the video file is bigger than the sound file and it buffers more so the video always stays behind the sound. Is there any way to fix it and have my video and audio always sychronised? To have the sound embeded with the audio is not an option.
Thank you in advance.

On what computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 13 running?
There are several ways to avoid disturbing an existing Timeline when you are adding to it.
1. Using what are called keyboard modifiers, such as Ctrl or Alt (Windows).
2. Grouping block of clips so that the clips move together
The following video tutorial is offered for informational and not promotional reasons
Premiere Elements: Arranging clips on the Timeline using modifier keys | lynda.com - YouTube
It uses a version of Premiere Elements earlier than 13, but the principles involved are the same.
The video and audio that are going out of sync.... are they linked or grouped before the addition to the existing Timeline?
After the fact, you will need to move the Timeline components back in place.
If the video and audio are not linked or group, you can
(a) highlight the clip, hold down the Alt key of the computer main
keyboard and tap the appropriate arrow key for a 1 frame per tap nudge of the clip.
(b) highlight the clip, hold down the Shift+Alt key of the computer main
keyboard and tap the appropriate arrow key for a 5 frames per tap nudge of the clip.
Please review and consider. If questions or need clarification on the above, please do not hesitate to ask.
Thank you.

Streaming video lags while Audio continues normally when switching tabs

It only happens if I go from a streaming video tab to another tab or browser screen/software etc. anything that switches the main view of my screen from the video and back will cause this problem.
it will play fine at first, but once I look at facebook or bring up itunes etc, and switch back (usually doesnt occur right away, but once the video is a minute or two in it will 100%) the video will start to lag horribly and will never get back on track. the play buttons on youtube/netflix even stay as pause buttons even though I can click play and pause back and forth functionally, and the audio will never skip a beat, but the video will stop dead, lag a few frames and stop dead again and will never correct unless I refresh the page. I can't recreate this in chrome, I've cleared my history and caches, upped the storage size on the main cache and tried updating various things like flash and firefox (19.0) but nothing is solving it!

You can check for problems caused by recent Flash updates and try these:
*disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin
*disable protected mode in Flash 11.3 and later (?)

Flash Player streaming video keeps freezing while audio continues

Hi,
I have been having a problem with flash player for a couple of months now. When watching streaming video's the video will freeze for a second every 5-10 seconds constantly, but the audio continues uninterrupted. I have tried everything, enabling/disabling hardware acceleration; reinstalling flash player 11; trying flash player 10; updating the graphics drivers. I have also tried it on 5 different browsers: IE, Firefox, Chrome, Seamonkey (mozilla browser), and Opera. The same problem occurs on all of them. Yesterday I thought I had cracked it when I realised I had several versions of java installed and once I deleted all the old versions flash player worked fine. However, today the problem has started all over again, and for some reason flash player had deleted itself when I turned the computer on this evening.
I have checked my internet connection speed online and am running an average speed of 5Mbps. I have 2.5 GB's of RAM, and a 2.2 GHz AMD Athlon 64 3500+ processor. I am using Windows XP. I have never had any problems with flash player on this pc (which I've had for 6 years), and as far as I can tell this problem started occurring a couple of weeks before flash player 11 was released.
I'd be very grateful for any help anyone can give resolving this problem.
Regards,
Chris Perkins

I think the issue may be related to Silverlight which I think was released in September when we both started getting this problem. DIsabling it does not work, so I'm still not sure how or if it really is causing this problem.
If the player is Silverlight, you'd be able to see that by right clicking the video.
Can you go to Youtube, play any video and then right click it and choose "Take Speed Test". That will take you to a graph where you can see what your download speed is in relation to your ISP, your location and other data. If the black bar is way down compared with others, then I would suspect that something, or somebody else is using your bandwidth. Do you have wireless? If so, change the security code. It may be being used as a wireless hotspot by your neighbours.
You can also play the test video which will show data usage in real time.

I stream video/audio from my iPhone to AppleTV and it works fine. I want to use headphones on the iPhone so I can stream the video and listen on the headphones, but Airplay will not allow me to select both AppleTV and headphones, I can only select one.

Streaming video pauses while the audio continues to play

I am using Firefox 3.6.12 on a Desktop pc with Windows 7 x64 os. Recently the streaming video will pause, or freeze, but the audio will continue playing. After a second or two the video will catch up with the audio and everything is in sync. This happens frequently during the course of the video being played. It has happened on both Hulu.com and Netflix.com. The buffering is good at 480, usually with 3 to 4 bars.

Sorry I can not give an immediate solution.
There seem to have been a few problems with Flashplayer recently. The sound problem was thought to have been solved, but has been around for a while.
#Please state what version of FlashPlayer you are currently using.
# then update to the current version, and confirm what version that is
* note the Flash site will check this for you and provide any download you need<br/>with Flash enabled in Firefox navigate to<br/>http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
As you have Win7 may I ask you to try using Internet Explorer and say whether or not that also suffers this problem?
Please also confirm which version of Firefox you are using? <br/> (note a minor update could be released this week so are you on 13'''.0''' )
* To check the version navigate to ''about:support''<br/>Key in about support into the Firefox address bar

Intermittant audio static/distortion when streaming video

New member seeking solution to an annoying problem. When
streaming video sites such as Youtube, MSN videos, and other video
sites, the audio has intermittent static, much like a radio station
that isn't fully tuned in. I have a laptop with an external sound
card, and it does it through it hooked to a small stereo system, as
well as the laptop's built-in soundcard and speakers. I have
updated the Flash player, and tried completely uninstalling and
reinstalling the sound drivers. Next thing, I am going to totally
uninstall Adobe Flash and try reinstalling it to see if it takes
care of the problem. By the way, it does it with both Internet
Exploder and Firefox. Any suggestions are welcome.
Sincerely,
John

The same thinks happens to me,
Thank you.
