No sound for video files

Got a mac desktop. Video files such as Youtube have no sound. Itunes play correctly so I know the speakers work. What could be wrong?

So, you have a problem with Quicktime. iTunes uses Quicktime for movie playback.
I would recommend going to the support site for your computer and making sure you have the latest video and audio drivers. If you don't have the latest Microsoft updates, you'll probably have to go get the latest version of DirectX as well from the Windows Update page. (Though make sure you update the drivers first.)

No sound for video files in itunes or quicktime

Hi,
Itunes is working well for music playback. However I downloaded a video for the first time and although the movie plays there is no sound and then windows hangs for a short time.
I tried going to www.quicktime.com and watching a movie trailer and the same happens. The video playback is fine but with no sound?
Thanks for your help.

What is the best converter for video files in mpeg, avi, wmv, mps, etc for imovie and what type of video files does the iMovie use? I recently purchased a MacBook Pro -version 10.10.1. I make movies, but the iMovie does not support my video files.

AppGeeker will do the job.

I dont get sound for videos, games and music but ringtone still works. When i press volume buttons on side of phone i only get the picture of the nell and no little dots underneath. This is on my iphone 4s and ipad. It happened at the same time.

Recurring theme with the 4s losing alerts except for the phone ringing. Most complaints seem to center on the 7.1 upgrade. The fix is dodgy, putting in a charger, playing a you tube video then pulling out the charger and wiggling it until you get the sound back. When you get the sound back, the volume buttons start to work again. Alternate solutions involve cleaning the docking port with a toothbrush, running a pick over the electrodes etc.

Is there an equivalent to Aperture for video files?

Between capturing video on my iPhone as well as my point and shoot camera, I now have hundreds of video files in Aperture side by side with my photos.
I'd really like to move these files out of Aperture, but I wonder if anyone can recommed a good program similar to Aperture, but just for video files? I would want it to have the capability to access files on an external drive, the same way that an Aperture library can be kept on an external drive.
Any suggestions?

Have you considered iTunes as a movie organizer? That is where I am storing my finished movies.
Something mainly for cataloguing video as opposed to an application that is primarily for editing video.
See the iMovie help for organizing video in iMovie:
iMovie '11: Organize your videoiMovie can be used to create movie projects from your raw footage, and to store and organize video into a video library.
I use iMovie to keep all unedited clips tucked away in nested folders in iMovies "Event library; there is simply no use of having thousands of clips that badly need editing bloating up the Aperture library. And I use the "Projects" library to organize my editing projects.
The finished movies are, the ones that I want to use in slideshows and other presentations are stored in my iTunes library.
In iTunes I can tag them with Genres, titles, descriptions and other info.
iTunes lets my browse and earch them in many ways.
iTunes makes them available in the Media browser for other applications. If I need a movie for a slideshow in Aperture I add it from the Media Browser.
iTunes lets me sync the movies to my handheld devices and present them.
For my needs these tho applications together - iMovie for the clips and editing projects, plus iTunes for the finihed movies to shared are just perfect.
In iMovie: events (clips organized in folders by date and location and disk) and projects (organized in folders by topic),
In iTunes: Finished movies to be shared: properly tagged and captioned for searching and sharing
This workflow lets me keep the clips of current editing projects on my mac. Once the movie is finished, I use iMovie to relocate the events with original clips and the project to an external drive and keep only the edited and finished movie in iTunes. But the iMovie event library will till show me, which drives I need to connect to give me easy access to all older events and projects.

Feature request: Slideshow module support for video files

I'm very excited about your MTS support!
Feature request: Slide show module support for video files...
Say you have 10 takes to choose from. Are you able to almost like SLIDESHOW view the 10 clips full screen so you can decide, like a playlist? Or rate them as they play? It would also be great, like SLIDESHOW to be able to export a MP4 with a title, the 10 clips you are working with, and maybe add an end title and a song, just like SLIDESHOW.
I have found editing stills like this in slideshow far faster than in any other editing program.
Basically, I just need a fast means to view or export an MP4 of a set of video clips to review. You are almost there.
great job!!!
Max

I was also disappointed that video is not supported in the slideshow module -I currently have to use another solution when I want stills mixed with videos, would be great to be ablo to keep it all in LR!

My iPhone 4S has no sound for videos.

My iPhone 4S has no sound for videos. Only videos though, and no matter the source. I can't hear my own videos I record, videos from YouTube, Facebook, Instagram etc. I'm operating on 7.0.2. No, it's not muted with the side button but I can't figure out why it's not working.

No Sound for Videos in iTunes 10.6 - Help!

Hi,
All of a sudden, in iTunes for Windows, whenever I play videos, I get no sound/audio. The video plays fine, but no sound.
Previously, everything played fine in iTunes, video and audio.
Here is what I am using:
iTunes 10.6 for Windows 64-bit
Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit
Quicktime 7.7.1
What is strange, is that audio files (songs and audio podcasts) play fine in iTunes. But when I switch to ANY video file (music video, movie or video podcast) the video portion plays fine, but no audio.
I've tried playing the same videos in Quicktime (standalone), and all is well.
I'm also able to play the same video files in Windows Media Player with no issues.
In addition, all of the videos have great sound in my iPod, iPhone, and iPad.
The problem is solely with playback within the iTunes Program.
Any thoughts on what settings I should check, or what other tips I should try?
Much appreciated!

Sound for video not working on iPod

When i convert the video files from my computer into iPod format, they do it. However, I transfer the video to my iPod and only see the video; there is no sound to the video even though it plays both on my iTunes and computer...what might be the problem?

just revising the question...the video does show up on my iPod, there is just no sound with the video. Guess I'm just trying to figure out if I did something wrong or if there is a fix to where I can see AND hear the video versus just watching it. The volume works for my songs, it is not locked and I try to raise and lower volume when playing the videos but there is no sound at all.

How to create a download link for video file?

Hello guys,
I know this is not a question directly related to OS X, but I just can't find a solution. So I was hoping that some of you might know the answer, or could recommend further reading.
I have .mov video files (video footage) on the server. I would like to make these files accessible for download, via link.
So I am wondering .... how can I create a link, which would allow people to download .mov video files from the server?
Thanks for any advice or tip.

The question is, where is the server?
Is it on its own static IP? If it is not, it likely is on a DHCP configuration.
For those with DHCP, I recommend http://www.dyndns.com as a workaround, otherwise the links given will have to change as often as every hour!
Is it on a router, or does it have a firewall turned on in its sharing preferneces? Routers and firewalls block direct access from the outside. You need to setup the web sharing access on your router or firewall before someone can access it via the web.
Is the .mov file saved via Quicktime? You would also need to provide link on your page to http://www.apple.com/quicktime so that it may be downloaded by those who don't have it. If it is another format, you'll need a link to whatever format it is.
HTML for putting the video right on the page is usually controled by the EMBED function. That's covered here:
http://www.htmlcodetutorial.com/embeddedobjects/_EMBED.html
Otherwise a simple hyperlink to the file will do, once you have an open web sharing port on a static IP or dyndns controled domain.

Problem on DMM 5.0 for Video files created in Adobe Premier CS4

We are using a DMM version 5.0.0 and created video files in Adobe Premier CS4. I have saved different file versions ( mpeg1, mpeg2, mpeg2 DVD, Flv) but to no success, could not get it to work on our system. Is there a specific way to save files in this version (CS4)of Premier?

Maria,
What device are you going to use the video content for?
Digital Media Players(DMPs) or Video Portal?
Check out the following Cisco link:
Cisco Digital Media System Compatibility Information
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/video/digital_media_systems/dms_compat.html
The Link goes over all supported media types.
Also, Adobe's Link.
Supported file formats in Premiere Pro CS4
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/405/kb405978.html
You can use the two links to cross reference the file formats that are available to
the ones you need for DMS content.

Download link custom action for video files

Hi,
I have a requirement for adding a custom action called "DOWNLOAD A COPY" in search results hover panel on click of which will download copy for the user. I am able to implement this for pdf, excel and word files but not for generic and video files
types since ctx.CurrentItem object is not having any property pointing to the item URL. Can someone please help me in getting this property for video and generic file types.
Thanks a lot in advance!
SharepointLearner

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to custom action for context menu in "Site Content and Structure" in SharePoint 2010.
In "SiteManager.aspx", SharePoint use MenuItemTemplate class which represent a control that creates an item in a drop-down menu.
For example, to create or delete the ECB menu for a list item in
"Site Content and Structure", we can follow the steps below:
To add the “My Like” menu, we can add the code below:
<SharePoint:MenuItemTemplate
UseShortId=false
id="OLListItemLike"
runat="server"
Text="My Like"
ImageUrl="/_layouts/images/DelItem.gif"
ClientOnClickNavigateUrl="https://www.google.com.hk/"
/>
To remove the “Delete” menu, we can comment the code below:
<SharePoint:MenuItemTemplate
UseShortId=false
id="OLListItemDelete"
runat="server"
Text="<%$Resources:cms,SmtDelete%>"
ImageUrl="/_layouts/images/DelItem.gif"
ClientOnClickScript="%SmtObjectDeleteScript%"
/>
The result is as below:
More information:
MenuItemTemplate Class (Microsoft.SharePoint.WebControls)
MenuItemTemplate.ClientOnClickScript property (Microsoft.SharePoint.WebControls)

Black thumbnails for video files

hi, i'm having problems with black thumbnails showing up in iPhoto 06 for mp4 video files
mpeg files work fine, and the same mp4 files actually work in iTunes (meaning iTunes generates a correct thumbnail but iphoto thumbnails are black)
does anyone know how to correct this?
thanks very much

thanks larry. when i open in quicktime and go to the first frame, it is not black. also, for some reason, when i import the movies into itunes, the thumbnails show up fine (i.e. no black frame). i'm guessing that it has something to do with how iPhoto generates the thumbnail (vs. iTunes), but i don't know enough to change these settings.
if the first frame is in fact black, do you know if there is a way to force iphoto to use something other than the first frame when generating thumbnails?
thanks very much.

Add Metadata, Options to Open in Adobe Media Encoder for Video Files

I was surprised to discover that some basic information about video files is not shown. For example, the duration of a QuickTime video is not shown.
Also, there is no option to open an MOV file in Adobe Media Encoder.
It would be nice to have this basic support for video.

HP LTO-6 Compression issues for video files

Hi there,
My client is having major issues with the HP 6250 LTO-6 external tape drive, with HP LTO-6 tapes.
We are backing up video files and getting zero compression even tho it has been enabled on the yosemite software. The tapes also show a compression of 2.5TB but we need the extra compression as this is for video systems.
Can someone assist with this ? is it because we are trying to compress video files ?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi @cortesvlm ,
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have looked into your issue about your HP Pavilion Sleekbook 15-b002ee Notebook and the need to compression bypass on the Beats Audio Software .
To enable or disable Beats Audio, press the fn key in combination with the b key. The Jack does have influence on the Beats Audio which might need to be turned off. This will help and you can turn it off and on as you need it.
Here is a document on how to uninstall software. The bottom link shows you how to disable software.
Hope this answers your concerns.
Thanks.
