No Sound while playing AVI

I currently have the latest version on QT Pro. I have been using QT for ages, even when I was an avid Windows user.
Anyway, I have never encountered this problem until a few months ago when I decided to upgrade to the Pro version of QT. I can play/view my AVI movies, but there is never any sound. There is nothing wrong with the soundcard, all is set to 44100.0, and everything else seems to be looking fine. When I play vids in the different format like ASF or MOV I have sound, but why not with AVI??
If someone could help me with this little problem, there's three cheek pinches in it for ya. :o)
ALSO, I HAVE NOT FOUND A WORKABLE ANSWER BY SEARCHING THE DISCUSSIONS.

Only three?
Seems slightly wonky that an upgrade to QT pro had made your sound disapppear. However, the the previous poster mentioned, QT should be able to tell you what the codec is.
However, I assume that it's likely to be AC3. Go to http://www.perian.org for the 'one size fits all' codec which includes the AC3 audio codec. Alternatively, if you don't want to install perian (did I say how wonderful it is) have a look at http://www.woggledog.com/mac/index.asp?subject=audiocodec for list of places that do have the AC3 codec on it's tod.
Good luck

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/

Hello Koyirai
If you are having issues with sound, check out the article below to troubleshoot the issue further with checking connections with any Bluetooth devices and checking the headset jack to ensure nothing is blocking access.

If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds have been muted.
System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

Hi,
I was having the same problem as you were my Nokia.
Make sure that (in settings) your "Aplacation-sounds" are turned on.
In fact, make sure ALL sounds are turned on, just in case.
Hope this helps

Crackling sound while playing music in HP SPECTRE 15-4010nr Ultrabook

Hi all,
I have recently bought [4th Jan. 2013 ] HP SPECTRE 15-4010nr Touchsmart ultrabook with beats audio.
I am very unhappy with sudden/random crackling bursts of noise while playing music.
The problem is not restricted to hp inbuilt speakers as it also reaches on headphones, so it's something internal to laptop.
Its really disappointing to have such a bugging issue from this high end laptop.
Please let me know if there is a solution to this problem.
Thanks in advance!!
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Yeah even for me it seems unhooking power adapter does the trick !
Even my Laptop is just 4 weeks, how could manufacturers let so common bug seep through their high end laptops.
Are these not tested for audio video quality ?
Anyways I need an alternate fix as I do not want to lose my laptop for a month, in exchange or return process.
P.S.: Sound drivers re-installation is of no use.
HP Guys, thanx for ur concern, but if u can give a fix for AC adapter noise interfernece it will be great. !!

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 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.

Audigy 2 NX - intermittent interrupted sound while playing 997Hz sine wave f

I just now bought Audigy 2 NX last week. When I play a 997Hz -3dB sine wave sound file, the sound coming out from SPDIF and analog output jacks are not continuos, it is interrupted intermittently. The sine wave audio file is provided by a famous audio instrument company Audio Precision. I must play the sine wave file to verify my Audigy 2 NX. Unfortunately, the sound is not continuos. The sine wave file can be played very smoothly a nd correctly on other notebook PCs. Is there any one who knows what happened to my Audigy 2 NX ?
Why do I play the 997Hz sine wave file ? I am responsible for design notebook PC hardware. I must test my audio design to see if I can pass Windows Vista Logorequirements or not. My company bought the Audio Precision instrument for the test. In order to test Microphone Input characteristic with the instrument, I must buy Audigy 2 NX to play the recorded audio file. Audio Precision recommend me to buy Audigy 2 NX for the measurement. The analog output of Audio Precision is connected to the Mic-In of my notebook PC. The notebok PC will record the 997Hz sine wave sound from Audio Precision. After recording the sine wave sound, I play the recorded file on my notebook. The file will be sent to Audigy 2NX from USB port, and then the Audigy 2 NX will send the sound to Audio Precision through SPDIF. Audio Precision will analyze the sound coming in from the SPDIF port. So I can measure Mic-In quality.

I have same kind of problem with my "Soundblaster Audigy 24-Bit", cos' I can't enable the "Advanced HD" effect in FEAR and Quake 4. I've heard that it can be fixed with a patch but I'm not able to install any of these patches I have downloaded from creative.com, everytime I try to install some of these patches it causes a fatal error which says "Make sure you have installed previous drivers correctly". I have tried everything but nothing seems to work.
Hello fellow sufferer
As I've found out so far the Advanced HD in F.E.A.R. is EAX Advanced HD 4.0 and our SoundBlasters are, whysoever, limited to EAX 3.0. I guess the patch you tried to install was the EAX 4.0 patch for the Audigy 2 series (of course my NX is not included,arghh...).
When I read "EAX ADVANCED HD Game Effects deli'vers mind-blowing gaming realism." in the Audigy 2 NX description on the creative site I did not realize that this "mind-blowing gaming realism" is strictly limited...

Windows Media Player no sound while playing a avi file in server and client connection using TCP/IP connection

Hello there
I have a problem with my windows media player while using server and client connection by using TCP/IP connection. So when I play a video using Windows Media Player in LabVIew there isn't any sound come out but when I'm playing a video by a Windows Media Player only the sound will come out. Can you help me solve this problem?
I also upload the vi as the reference.

Hi ican,
I was looking at your VI's but I cannot seem to pinpoint exactly where you are using Windows Media Player. In order to more quickly assist you, could you please recreate this issue more concisely in a smaller set of VIs. Also, were you able to get sound when you did not use the TCP/IP connection and simply played the files in LabVIEW?
I noticed in a few places that you were using the Play Sound File.VI from the Graphics and Sounds palette. Is that what you are refering to? I noticed there that the file path that you have designated for the song is simply the song title. Instead, this should be a path to where the song is located on your computer.
Also, if you are planning on using Windows Media Player, have you considered using the ActiveX commands for Windows Media Player? Here are a few examples if you are unfamiliar with this functionality.
Example 1 and Example 2.
I hope this helps!

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:

IPad 2 no sound while playing without Headphone .

Hi Folks,
Hope you all master mind over there are in good spirits.
It's been while now that all of sudden sound stop coming from my iPad 2 .When I use the side volume up/down,nothing happens and only the icon is displayed that shows just a volume but without any levels to increase the volume.
Strange thing is that when I plug in my headphone into the volume jack of the iPad 2 , sound start coming.
Things I have tried.
1).Tried checking the sound setting in the general-sounds and everything seems to be correct.
2).Verified the side volume /lock button.
3).When I double click the home button and slide to the right , I can see the volume button being displayed there without volume levels and can't even increase the volume.
I am going impatient and It seems that after trying so much , I have to live with issue.If any of you experts have some workaround for me , I would be very much grateful to you.
Apologies ,if I have written this question in wrong way , or if I was not able to make you understand the issue .
Thanks in Advance

Have you got the solution Miles 2? Please share if you know. My ipad 2 got exactly same as yours. Upgrade to iOS 7, retore, back up,...done all but not solve issue.
Please reply and Thanks a lot...

Loosing sound while playing movies on the Ipod

I have been converting some of my movies to the Ipod format using "WinAVI MP4 Converter". The program worked, the movies were installed on the Ipod and are playable...for about 60 secs. Then it freezes and after some seconds keeps playing but without sound. Using FF stopping again will make the sound come back for another 60 secs.
Anyone know a solution to this problem? Is it the software causing movies with errors or is it the Ipod?

That is the problem.
1.1 messes up the video capabilities. So that is your problem. The only way to get the audio back on your vidoes is to reformat your iPod back to 1.0. That should be on the disk that came with your iPod. But when you reformat your iPod, it removes everything that was on it.

Scratching sound while playing songs in iTunes

I've recently had scratching sounds in my iTunes songs. It sounds as if a cd is playing and there's a scratch on the cd. I've researched different ways of fixing this problem, but so far nothing's been helpful. I've tried resetting my equalizer settings and just using the miniplayer (which are suggestions for this problem) but nothing's working. I've also updated to the newest version of iTunes and have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes. How do I stop the scratching sounds?

didnt notice this was a windows thread my bad

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
