Very quiet podcasts - awful sound quality music playback

I've tried the 5 R's but it hasn't changed anything. The podcasts are so quiet I can't hear them walking down the street due to traffic noise and the music has taken on a weird electronic sound with the vocals also be difficult to hear.
It is 3-4 yrs old and has been used for 1-2 hrs everyday pretty much... do i just assume that it has had enough?

Then you may be correct. It may have reached the end of its useful life. I know there are some third party iPod repair places that will diagnose the problem for small fee. You might try googling.
Best of luck.

No sound or music playback after update

I updated my AppleTV today, and now it won't play my music stored in the device and there is no sound from the unit. Any fixes?

Same problem here. Whe I power cycle TV or go to another channel and back, HDMI syncs and sound is back for about 5 seconds, then it is gone again. Seems like a broken HDMI handshake...
I do get the startup sound and some menu soundeffects. Even AirTunes from MacBook to ATV and then to TV is working! but none of ATVs local contents or internet trailers give any sound.

Touchsmart 600 popping sound during music playback

dear all,
i have a very new touchsmart 600-1036D running windows 7 and realtek HD audio card with internal speakers.
I realised that when i am playing music either with WMP or Itunes 64bit, and at the same time when i am surfing or working on a excel sheet/word or something like that, there is a cracking popping sound (like the sound u hear when u plug a 3.5mm head into a jack). The sound only comes on when i am clicking something or launching another program or moving my mouse..
basically if is only the music playing, the music plays well and nice, but when the PC has to do someting else, the popping sound comes.
I have reinstall and update the audio driver, done all diagnostics tests as instructed by HP. but still cannot resolve.
The sound is audible via my headphones as well.
Any idea how to solve this? totally irritating.

May I refer you to the following link in this forum. It sounds like you are having the same problem as a lot of other consumers that have bought this product including myself. The subject " Touchsmart 600xt Audio Performance " is on page 2 .

Warbly sounding MP3 music playback. Qosmio X505-Q890

Out of box factory unit, MP3's sounds "warbly" (loud/soft-slow/fast) playing in WMP-12. CD's ripped as mp3's onto HDD not the SSD drive.

CK-200 poor music playback quality

Hi, I've just installed the car kit CK-200 (ISO cable version) into my car and I'm very disappointed by the music playback quality.
I have Nokia C7 with the latest firmware (14.002) and I have also updated the car kit firmware into 3.0.
There's no problem with the phone call quality - I would say it is comparable to the other car kits (for example to CK-7W I've had before), but if I want to use it for playing music, it still plays it in "phone call-like" quality. I have tried different players, but no success - still the same low quality.
If I turn the FM transmitter on and tune up the car radio to the transmitters' frequency, I get much better quality then via this car kit (although sometimes it's noisy from other broadcasting radios).
In the product description of this CK-200 they highlight very good sound quality thanks to some DSP technology - I hope there's more than this.
Do you have any idea what might be the problem here?

Hi
The CK-200 is a mono output car kit that is only designed for calls, not music.
If a handset is playing music via the mono Bluetooth channel, this is a fluke, and not part of the design of the handset.
The CK-100, 300, 600 are all stereo car kits with music capability.
The DSP settings on the CK-200 manage the voice vs background noise in the car so the driver can be heard more clearly by the other caller.

Problems with sound and music

I got an Apple TV and I connected to my Samsung TV with HDMI. It works fine, I sync with my MacBook Pro and I can see my pics and get some music from my iTunes library. But I can't play the songs. I select them but when I press play it doesn't work. And also there is no sound when I connect to Youtube for example.

Have you got the volume control turned down. Look in your video and audio settings, enable volume control and check if you are able to turn the volume up with the remote.
that wouldn't explain the no volume with youtube though? as that setting only affects music playback ?

Does the Iphone 3G support music playback via a bluetooth headset?

Hi All,
Does the Iphine 3g support music playback via a bluetooth headset at all, I suspect not...

It's been on many a user's requested feature list since the first iPhone, and people were disappointed when it didn't show up on the 3G. The adaptor he links to will get the job done.
I have to admit I've demoed a couple of bluetooth stereo headsets, and the music sounded awful. Perhaps it's improved, but for this reason it's not a feature I've personally wished was included.

Problem with iTunes Music Playback

Hi, I like using itunes but im having a problem with the music playback. If i have just itunes running and some background programs i.e. anti-virus playback of music is fine but I want to be able to surf the web, and play my games while listening to music. However when i try to so this the sound becomes muffled, choppy and can skip and slow down all in all its impossible to listen to. I thought this may be a problem with my PC but its not a slow one. I tried Windows Media Player and while browsing the net, playing my games etc playback was perfect. Also ive done everything on this page> http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93610 but still had no luck. Now i will use media play if i have to much i much prefer itunes ans it has all my libary sorted out. Any help would be brilliant.
Thanks
Mark

Even though you LOVE iTunes, there are many other programs out there that don't require extra software to be installed for it to function....there by freeing up your CPU to run more programs.
I would seriously look into trying something different that doesn't need to hog so much system resources....until they reduce their program's needs.
Try something like Winamp or Musicmatch Jukebox.
You can have your library to show up pretty much the same way that they do in iTunes. You'll just have to read through the user guides to get it exactly the way you want it.

Bluetooth Buzz during music playback - iPhone 6

I am using an iPhone 6 - paired to a pioneer FH-X720BT car stereo. About 5 minutes after bluetooth music playback starts I get a very loud buzz for about 5 seconds. A moment after this all sound stops for a second. Then music resumes. This does not repeat until the stereo is turned off and then on again. Anyone have a suggestion on how to fix it. Is it a Pioneer stereo problem or is it an iPhone 6 problem? I have not had the same problem with an older iPhone 4s.

Same issue here with iPhone 6 iOS 8.1.3 and now with iOS 8.2. New Pioneer DEH6700BS. Took back to shop and had new deck replaced - SAME ISSUE. Mine is around 7:30 minute and same drop out right after that as you are seeing. I have tested with iPod Touch and my son's iPhone 5C and I don't get this issue despite multiple testing scenarios. Looks like the common denominator is the iPhone 6.

//If move_start_point_too parameter is true, then also start point is pushed where playback point is pushed too (to the value of the 'from' parameter).
//Also the value of the 'from' parameter is an absolute position, but otherwise (if move_start_point_too parameter is false) it ('from' parameter) is relative to start point's position until it (start point) is ignored.

//But if the loop member is true, then playback point just returns to start point immediately and continue playing from there (now_playing remains true and it's value is unchanged).
//There is a possibility to move the break point to a negative integer, so audio either stops and sets now_playing to false or replays from start point and left now_playing true according to the loop member, at the end of the audio. The default value of break point member is minus one -1 .

unsigned long long GetStartPointPosition(); //Returns the position of the start point that has been already mentioned above.

//If the function succeeds, then it returns "succeed". Otherwise (if the function fails) then it returns an error string that describes the problem (the reason it failed). It can be sent to output, so it can be read, by either call to MessageBox, printf, std::cout, TextOut, DrawText functions and etc.
//The function can fails, because the file was not exist, or could not be opened for reading, because it was opened by another process, or the file was either encrypted or protected, or corrupted, or was not audio file, but text, image and etc.
I want to implement all methods of the AudioPlayer class and the LoadAudioFromComputer function by myself using DirectSound (the <dsound.h>) and all functions, interfaces, methods, structures, etc... that this header provides, but I don't know how! I
need your help! This is difficult for me to find in the internet the information I need to do this. MSDN is teaching all this stuff, but this is too difficult! I need you to implement all these methods of the AudioPlayer class and the LoadAudioFromComputer
function for me using DirectSound and the <dsound.h> and the explanations I wrote in comments, and then post the code. I will copy it to mine and read it all to learn. Please use comments so I can understand. I will thank and appreciate anyone who will
donate his time to help me and do this for me! :D

Microsoft pulled the plug on DirectSound HAL in Vista due to lack of hardware support. The SAL exists for
software compatibility, good intention but bad performance as there is no longer a direct path from
DirectSound to audio drivers.
People choose DirectSound for its Direct-ness
but there is no reason to choose it now.
DirectX SDK was integrated
with WIndows SDK which ships with Visual Studio 2012 so you don't need additional downloads for
WASAPI and XAudio 2.
Just look up the documentation for headers/librarieslike every other Windows API you use. If you have a hard time to find the documentation then you need to go to search engines and find search engine tutorials.
There are plenty of samples for both WASAPI and XAudio 2, both in the Windows SDK and online. The DirectX team has some suggestions on which to use on their team blog.
You can find experts for those APIs at the Windows Desktop Pro-Audio Application Development forum and the
Audio/XACT forum on MSDN (link left out for you to practice your search skills). Again, it is fine to ask for hints but don't ask the whole
solution. You are competing with others who just need a hint to finish work here. The time spent on working on your assignment would be better spent on helping on giving hints to others.

2 speakers music playback

Hi all,
I used to have a X-FI Fatality Pro series on Windows XP. Everything went fine. Now I upgraded to Windows 7 64 bit and when I play music on any player, it plays in the Front left and right speakers. When I check THX console and windows speaker settings, I see everything set to 7. and any other sound would be in?7. except my music playback.
Any suggestions and help would be appreciated.
Thanks

I have exactly the same problem .... On Win 7 64 bits too... In game or in test mode, all channels works, but when i want to listen music, only 2 speakers works... With differents drivers....

Choppy Music playback with other programs running

Have a question on Itunes 7 playback. I frequently play games (mainly WOW) with the sound on, but at a low level. I then run Itunes in the background at a high volume level so I can listen to music. My computer is high end and I never had any problems doing this before. Now that I have upgraded to 7 the music is very choppy if the game is sending any sound output to the sound card. As soon as i turn in game sound off, the music playback is fine. Any ideas besides reverting to 6?

Rolling back to 6 won't fix every thing, I rolled back..iTunes seams to work but programs that use to work using quicktime still have the jittery, jerky sound affects.
It was a Reason Ask DVD Video (uses QT.7 that ran fine up until iTunes 7 was installed) run the dvd and any narration gets screwed up when you roll over the application button rollovers, so it has basically stuffed up the system sound, then the video has a hard time trying to catchup.

E55 - improve sound on mp3 playback?

mp3 playback on my E55 is dissappointing; you need to add Bass enhancement just to get a flat frequency response and the music lacks detail even on simplet tracks.
I know it's not a dedicated mp3 player/'comes with music'/Walkman phone but how can I improve music playback?
- Is eACC format easier on the processor?
- Is there a 3rd party mp3/ACC player for E55 that sounds better?

I should have explained;
- Yes, I'm using same pair of headphones to compare same tracks played back on E55 and laptop. Laptop is satisfactory and I'm used to what it 'sounds' like, E55 mp3 player is poor.
- Source is mp3 so ACC/eACC would require an additional conversion (rather than ripping CDs to ACC in the first place).
Seperate headphone amp is nice idea, but my sound quality expectations aren't quite that high for a phone. Would only bother with headphone amp for CD line output or similar cheers.
Further testing;
- Internet Radio on E55 is quite acceptable and dosn't need any bass re-infocement. I conclude the problem is with the mp3 playing software on E55 or the source mp3 - not the S60 OS or E55 hardware.
- Playing further albums on proved that BOTH the laptop and E55 did justice other mp3 and WMAs including Opera, Rock and Dance.
Conclusion: "The Haçienda - Acid House Classics" mp3 album is a bit quite and not a great source. But the E55 still needs bass turned on for the music player (but not Internet Radio!) so could be solved with a software update.
Other sources sound as good as you could expect on the E55: rubbish in ribbish out.
Now to see if converting from mp3/WMA to ACC/eACC can actually improve the sound. I used to think it impossible to improve a signal with additional processing, but my Sony Hard Disk TV Recorder actually plays back better than the original(!) so maybe converting to ACC will to.

Can music playback be stopped/started from a second device?

Is there an iphone app that would enable control of music playback on one iphone from another?
Specifically, I work with students with Autism. We have incorporated audio tracks including verbal prompts and music that they like to assist them when working out at the gym. It would be wonderful if the instructor was able to pause and resume the audio tracks remotely when "real life" circumstances necessitate.
(Another fantastic innovation would be the ability to patch in verbal prompts live as needed!)
Can anyone recommend apps for this sort of scenario, or is it something for the future?
Thanks for your time

There is no app that can control another iPhone.
It sounds like you would be better off having an app that streams music from one source (server). You could then control the audio at that source.

No sound on music playback
