No sound when playing .avi files

Hi everyone,
I tried to fond the solution to this problem with the search options but didn't find anything.
I purchased Quicktime 7 Pro for windows to convert avi files for my iPhone.
At first I had troubles getting more than a black screen, but this was solved with the divx codecs. But since then I still get no sound from avi files. Even the audio half of the A/V controls are disabled... Seems it happens even with mp3 audio encoded files...
Does anyone know what codecs (?) are missing and where I have to install them ?
Thanks for reading,
Nicolas

Cannot get any sound when playing .avi files

Hi All
I am running QT version 6.5.3 on Mac OS X 10.2.8 and cannot get any sound when playing .avi files but the picture is perfect.
I have installed the following: M-Peg 2 playback component, AVI Components and AC3 component.
Does anyone know if I am missing anything or how I can fix this?
Many thanks
Garry

Download and install Perian from http://perian.org/
You should read this support page http://perian.org/#support in case you need to delete older codecs. In Macintosh HD/Library/Quicktime/ delete any files relating to DivX (Perian already has them). However it should be noted that Perian is not an internet plugin and will not play DivX files imbedded on a website. For that you will need the DivX Player browser plugin available from http://www.divx.com/divx/mac/

No sound when playing AVI file

I've looked through the forum and downloaded Perian and DivX and tried deleting the DivX files out of the Quicktime folder, but still no sound when playing one of all my AVI files. If I click on the icon for the video, I can play it through there with sound, but when I actually open the file in Quicktime, there's no sou
This plays sound:
But there's no sound when actually opened.

Did you try both Quicktime applications? There is also Quicktime 7x which is located inside the Utilities folder.

Stutter when playing AVI-files

I have problem when playing AVI-files on my computer, they are stutter when they plays. The problem arises with a wide range of media players.
The problem started about 2 month ago. Before this time the same file(s) where playing OK!
The same file(s) are playing OK on other computers (tested today)...
I'm having a Satellite Pro M30, running XP pro SP2.
I have tried every thing I can come up with without ant success:
Uninstalled almost every program.
Checked for virus.
Checked for Spy-wares.
Shutdown all unnecessary processes.
Defragment the HD.
Help is wanted

Hello
It is very strange. I have had similar situation but with all formats avi, mpg and even while watching DVDs but it was caused by my antivir application. The application has raised CPU usage and watching movies was not possible.
Believe me I have removed this stupid application and now it works well again. Now I use other small antivir guard application. I am very happy now.

No sound when playing .pps files

I occasionally receive .pps or .ppt files from my mother but usually can't hear any sound when playing these slide shows. Most recently, I took the same inaudible presentation she sent me, renamed the file and sent it back to her and the music accompanying the renamed slide show played fine for her. Any idea what's going on?? My mother does not create these files but just forwards them along to me. She uses a Windows XP machine and I use a Mac if that makes any difference.

power mac g4 dual 1.42 Mac OS X (10.4.9)

I'm having the same problem. Evidently, the Mac does not include
whatever application plays the music that accompanies a .pps file.
I visited my local Apple store, but nobody was able to help.
Very disappointing and frustrating.

No sound when playing ,mov files ?

I converted a .avi file to .mov and when playing it in quicktime I have video but no sound. If I uninstall quicktime and use quicktime alternative + media player classic, the .mov files play perfect. But when I install quicktime again (which i have to have for my iPod) there is no sound. I cant figure out how to fix this.

I have same problem. I have a law lecture CD with .mov files. It plays perfectly in Classic with QT 6.0 but with OS X QT 7 Pro the audio will not play. I called Apple, but got no satisfactory response from the help line.

No sound from playing avi files in front row.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can play my avi files from front row when I put them into the movies folder...however, the music just won't play!!!~~~~~~
is anyone else having this problem?
anyone with a solution?
please please help!!!!

I'm assuming these are Divx movies? Have you installed the latest AC3 codec, this worked for me:
You need a file called "AC3 Codec.component"
Do a search and you can find it to download, and try that. This got my audio working in Front Row on my MacBook Pro
You can download it here:

QT does not have sound when play AVI movies

I can not get any sound in my .AVI films in QT.
I have QT Pro 7.6.5 as well as QT 10.
The films play WITH sound in my VLC player but want them to work in QT as well so I can watch them is sound via my Apple TV.
I run the latest Mac software, versions etc. I have installed Perian as well as 3ivx (have a 30 day trial version that is still in the trial period so should work).
What is further getting on my nerves is that my mother in law has the same MacBook Pro as me with the same programs and she GETS the sound in her QT Pro 7.6.4.
I have checked her settings and downloads and can not find any differences (even copied her QT to my MacBook in case there was an error with mine)...
ANY help or advise highly appreciated.
Merry x-mas,
Kenneth

Very poor audio format used in the file (1/4 of the standard sample rate and mono). But I don't have any troubles with it (the audio codec) on my machine.
Some oddball info surrounds your file. The 24 fps frame rate suggests "premium" quality video at HD dimensions yet the audio is highly compressed.
The Perian component is like a "Swiss army knife" (has all kinds of options) and if it can't help your file there may not be much other help for it.
Can you tell us more about the source (where you got the file)?

No sound when playing mpeg files

I can't get quicktime to play sound when I try to play videos that are mpeg files. I already downloaded mpeg-2 playback as well as Perian 1.0 but it still won't play sound. Any suggestions?

To Apple Discussions!
Solution
1. Open Audio MIDI Setup (/Applications/Utilities/), then check the Audio Output setting.
2. Change the Audio Output setting to 44100.0 Hz.
3. Quit Audio MIDI Setup.
KB article - No sound from some applications, but system alert sounds play (Mac OS X 10.3, 10.4)
Another trick: If you have GarageBand installed, open it (maybe open a GarageBand document) and then quit out of the application.

Buzzing sound when playing media file on HDMI

Since about a week or so now all the media files I play I hear this buzzing sound every so often. I test this out with .avi file and .mp3 and I hear the same buzz. Does anyone know what could it be? It used to work fine before, I'm not sure what changed.

Dah,
Thanks for the suggestion, that might have did it. I just moved the TV to a different surge protector and it seems to be good for now. Gonna leave it like this for a while and see if the buzzing return or not.
Thanks

No video but sound when playing .mov files

I'm trying to play .mov files on my computer and I get sound but no video. I've installed the latest verson of QT and no help.
The computer is an older MBP.
randalhillphoto

I should explain better. The mov files are exports from a 2-year-old MBP using FCP and exporting the files as self-contained movies. They were exported to use as an archive and saved on DVDs. Now I'm working on a 4 year-old MBP with FCE and trying to open the files with quicktime after downloading them from the DVD archives. I get the sound but no video. Please help me resolve this.

Crackling sound when playing video files with X-Fi Elite

Hello,
I have a Creative X-Fi Elite Pro running on a Windows Vista Ultimate system that have the Gigaworks S750 Speakers connected to them.
I noticed today when trying to play a video file that there was constant crackling in the background throughout the file. To try to isolate the problem, I tried a different file, and have found that this happens with ALL video files. Audio playback on mp3s or CDs is OK.
I'm using Entertainment Mode, EAX effects set to Theater, CMSS enabled and Crystallizer disabled, and all other settings as default. The configuration is set to 7. to match my Gigaworks speakers.
I have tried using both the latest and latest beta drivers for the card, without success.
Any help to resolve these problems would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Thank you for the response. I have checked it, and it says (i've dutch language) something i would translate to English as "System sound output". Is that preference for all discs? I would assume so. But DVD-player plays some discs without sound, and some with sound. So maybe it is codec related? But i would not know how to check that... (when i try to see what codec, audio says it is dts, and i assume dts audio should be no problem?)

White screen when playing .avi file

I recently upgraded to Quicktime Pro, and when I try to play a video that I downloaded, all I get is a white screen. The time counts up perfectly, but there is no picture. The same thing happened when I had just the basic quicktime.
I'm not sure if it's an issue with the quicktime, or if I need to get a new component?
If anyone could help me out with this, it would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Jord

The Xvid package should come with a read me that tells you where the files need to go. Also, does the movie you're trying to watch use Xvid? Get Info when you're in QuickTime Player, what codecs does it say are used by the movie?

No sound when playing imported files...

Hey all. Super noob with garage band, but searched around and couldnt find the answers.
After opening the audio files, and dragging in a song, we hit "PLAY" button and can see the track progressing, but hear no sound. What are we doing wrong?
Thanks.

No waverform that I can see, if you mean some visual measure of sound. I do not think the track is muted, the volume is turned up both on the track bar as well as the main time measure bar. As far as output, just fooling around I opened up Preferences and for audio output it had identical options, one on top of the other. They were both titled Built-in Output, so I switched to to other, and no luck.
If I select the Garage Band samples, they will play though.

PSE13: no sound when playing AVCHD videos

In the PSE 13 Organizer I'm not getting any sound when playing AVCHD files:
These files play just fine in PSE12
These files play just fine in Premiere Elements 13 and 12
The files are from various cameras (Sony RX100M3, Sony and Panasonic camcorders)
Other video formats work fine (e.g., .wmv, .mov files from an iPhone, .avi etc)
Any ideas? A quick search indicates this problem has occurred occasionally over the last several years across various versions of PSE.
Thanks

Hi Anewsha
I use .mts.
To clarify : The problem occurs in the organizer part, where sound
disappears after palying 30 seconds. I run a fairly powerful computer, Core
i7, 16 G Memory with NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750
