No video playback on Windows 8 Pro

I'm trying to play vídeos on my Windows 8 and all I can see is a black screen and I can only hear the sound.
This happens everywhere. Youtube, video apps, media player. I can't understand why.
I've installed already the K-Lite Codec pack and I've upgraded my AMD video card. But still no luck.
Only sound , no video.
Also, if it helps, I have a Vaio J Series (all-in-one) also know as VPCJ215FB.
Could you please help me?
Thanks in advance

SOLVED, well atleast for me.
@bobbyram1 , your solution did work for me but partly. I could use metro video app, youtube player started working, but I couldn't get my cs softwares like premiere pro run. it was because your solution doesn't exactly installs ati driver, rather it removes installed
display driver and replaces with Microsoft basic display adapter driver that doesn't fully utilize the hardware. maybe it had worked fine for many users, but I have a simple solution to install radeon graphics on windows 8 without blue screen theory.
@all, I am using a windows 7 based sony vpceb44en notebook, upgraded to windows 8.1. it's got ati radeon hd 5470 graphics, HD 5000 series.
I downloaded original graphics driver for windows 7 from sony vaio website. started the exe file that displayed sony branded window highlighting "installation in progress". after a few seconds when the setup file is extracted in temp folders,
ati catalyst install manager app will pop up. don't do anything with the setup file, instead open tast manager (from contextual menu, 'window key' + 'x'). right click on catalyst insall manager and select open file location. once the explorer
window opens, go one step back and select and copy the following folders to wherever u like: Bin64 (or maybe 86), Config, Images, Packages.
go to device manager through windows key + x contextual menu. go to display adapters and select the graphics hardware, double click. go to driver tab, select update driver. next, select browse my computer. select let me pick from a list of
device drivers. select have disk. browse to the extracted saved folders of ati graphics --> ur folder name/Packages/Drivers/Display/W76A_INF. select the inf file from the folder.
afterwards you'll get your driver listed in the have disk window, select it, click next and install, and restart. later if you browse to device manager you will see your display graphics hardware name. later on you can install catalyst manager software through
setup.
if in case it doesn't work download amd cleanup utility from amd site. run it, let it flash display driver and restart the pc. go to device manager and select Microsoft basic display adapter from display adapters, and follow the same above "have
disk" installation procedure.
hope I have helped you all.
NOTE: before you do all this, make sure you create a restore point. it shall help you if anything goes wrong with the os.

  • Video Playback Flicker Windows 7/8 Media Center? Disable Intel Dynamic Contrast to stop it

    If you bought a Mac Mini for use as a Windows Media Center DVR Computer like me, you'll notice a background flicker on live tv or recorded tv.
    Mine is the Mac Mini (Late 2012 Model) with Intel HD 4000 Graphics
    If you go into the Intel Graphics and Media Control Panel. (icon in lower right) Go to Graphics Properties, Advanced Mode, Media, Image Enhancement, and UN-check the box for "Adaptive Contrast Enhanscement"
    Video will then be flicker free!  (aka 29/59 bug)
    Here's a video that walks you through it.

    Also, if you have white snow, or video blank outs their is a firmware update for the Mac Mini 2012 model itself.   I use Boot Camp, so my Mac OS X Mountain Lion side could update things when needed.  (but leave the machine running 99% of the time in Windows 8 as my DVR)

  • Poor video playback with Windows XP

    Hi all,
    I am trying to play TV shows that bought from the ITMS (Xena & Star Trek remixed originals). I seem to be getting poor video playback performance. The video is briefly freezing and skipping. The frame rate is also not very good.
    System specs:
    2.6GHz P4 with hyperthreading enabled
    2GB RAM
    Matrox Parhelia 128 video card (latest drivers and firmware)
    Soundblaster X-Fi Platinum
    WinXP Pro SP2 + latest hotfixes
    iTunes 7.2
    I bought my first TV show after upgrading to iTunes 7.2 so I can't compare performance with v7.1 or earlier. I've tried playing the videos from a local IDE (D:, 60GB free out of 120GB) and from my 1TB Buffalo Terastation (RAID 5, 750GB). The performance is the same. The CPU activity varies from 75% to 95% CPU usage while playing the videos.
    Even though my Matrox Parhelia is 3 years old it is still one of Matrox's top performance video cards and does excelent 2D and pretty good 3D.
    Any help will be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Steven

    You're leaping to a conclusion that isn't supported by any facts. Just because you are having a problem is not an indictment of Safari 4. I'm having no trouble, nor are millions of other users, so that destroys your thesis. The problem is something that was a pre-existing condition on your Mac.
    Did either of you Repair Disk Permission before and after installing it? If not, start with that. Do you have the most recent version of Flash installed? If not, download the Flash uninstaller from the Adobe web site, then the lastest Flash installer and run those, then restart Safari and test it on some video.

  • Video playback on macbook pro

    how are macbook users getting the internet video playback to work? 
    I copied files from the airbook library that were designated for flash and quickbook player.  No luck.  I am very disappointed.  What I am reading is a blockage of Apple programming to the Adobe programming.  Really?
    Please provide the work around.  This is extremely important to me to see videos playback in Safari, Chrome and Firefox.  I am a web developer and this amazes me when a large investment has been made by Apple's client.

    1. System Preferences > Other/ Flash Player > Advanced >  Delete  All
         Press the "Delete All" button
         Install Adobe Flash Player.
        http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
        Follow the prompts.
        Quit Safari.
        Restart computer. Relaunch Safari.
    2.  Enable Plug-ins

        Internet Plug-ins >  "Allow  plug-ins"

  • No Flash Video Playback on Mac Pro with Leopard

    I recently purchased a Mac Pro with Leopard, Final Cut Studio
    2, and Adobe Production Premium suite. I got everything setup
    yesterday, and I exported a Quicktime reference file from Final
    Cut, and brought it into Flash CS3 Media Encoder. The file seemed
    to encode fine, but when I try to open it, it shows that the Flash
    Player opens, but the video never actually opens. I also tired to
    import the FLV file into Flash Pro, and it acts as though it
    imports, but it does let me preview it. The ONLY thing that I think
    could have caused a problem is that I also have Sorenson Squeeze
    installed, which has its own On2 VP6 encoder. Again, this may have
    nothing to do with it since I copied the file to another Mac
    machine that did not have Sorenson on it, and downloaded the
    standalone Flash Player, and it acted the same. Any ideas on why
    FLV files would not play back would be greatly appreciated. I have
    ALL updates installed for OS X Leopard, as well as the CS3
    collection. Thanks in advance.

    I really appreciate your help with this. As simple as it
    sounds, I was really wrapped up in getting a second HD editing
    suite up and running, and had not done my homework. Prior to your
    post, I tried to play 5 different FLV files on 3 machines. None of
    them played until I downloaded a great FLV player. Once I installed
    the FLV player, all of the videos played flawlessly. Thanks
    again!

  • Poor coverflow browsing and video playback on Windows Vista

    I built a new computer recently and upgraded from XP to Vista. The machine is a 2.4GHZ Core 2 Quad 6600 with 2gig of DDR2 ram and a 8800GTS 360mb; No lightweight by any means.
    However, when I go to view albums in cover flow or play videos I bought in the iTunes Store the playback is actually worse than my previous computer, an Athlon 64 3000.
    Has anyone else had a similar experience or found a fix?

    Read this discussion thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=5391182#5391182
    I found that disabling Readyboost on a recently inserted SD card caused my problem. Disabling this resolved all my choppy video issues.
    Others have found that using either an external HDD or a drive seperate to the OS resolved their problem.

  • Video playback pauses/freezes when I move my T500... also keeps dropping wireless connection...

    Video playback in Windows Media, Quicktime and in Firefox (youtube, etc.) pauses when I physically move my laptop. I've never had this happen on any other laptop. Any suggestions?
    Another annoying problem is that it drops the wireless connection in my home every couple of minutes. This doesn't happen with any of the other 3 laptops I'm running so it's not my ISP or router.
    Thanks for any help!

    The ThinkPad Active Protection System (APS) will protect the Hard Drive when you move your ThinkPad, and this probably causing the behaviour you are observing.  There are options for disabling APS for particular purposes, so you should have a look in the APS options... look in the ThinkVantage folder on your Start menu.
    Regarding your WiFi issues, you need to make sure that all the relevant power managment settings for WiFi are set to Maximum Performance (or similar).  This has been covered in numerous messages here already. so a few minutes with the serach function should provide you with more details.

  • Adobe AIR Desktop Application - HD Video Playback

    Hello everyone,
    I am new to the forums. Hope I am posting in the correct one.
    I have been doing AS3 development for last 2 years. But recently I had to implement a HD Video playback in windows. I was happy to know that StageVideo helps in that case. So I started coding and created projector (not with Adobe AIR , but to play with Flash StandAlone player). Was working great , playing 3840*1080 video with ease, awesome performance. But the problem came when I had to switch to fullscreen in that program. We were using 2 Monitors with extended desktop to give 3840x1080 resolution. The Flash could switch only to one screen. I leanred a new thing , Flash just can not switch fullscreen on two screens, be it standalone/web.
    Then I came across AIR , saw on some forums that with NativeWindow class you can pretty easily run a AIR app fullscreen on 2 different monitors. I thought awesome ! I installed Flash Develop and got started with AIR 3.7 SDK. when I ported my AS3 code for AIR app , came to know that the stageVideo does not work here (that was completely unexpected!). So Now I am confused which path to take as Flash can not go fullscreen on dual monitors, and AIR can not use stageVideo.
    Any help will be appriciated. Thanks in advance.
    Edit -
    The StageVideo Class seems available , but it returns the stage.stageVideos.length as 0. Attached a StageVideoAvailabiliityEvent to stage but seems it never is available. Any other way to play HD Video ? Native flash.media.Video is not able to handle such big video.

  • Video Playback Option in "Preferences/Audio-Video Out"

    The following did not make it into the User Guide, though it did get into the troubleshooting docs:
    http://www.adobe.com/support/techdocs/332121.html
    332121 Video Playback option in Audio/Video Out preferences (Encore DVD)
    A new option was added to the Preferences menu of version 2.0 of Adobe Encore DVD. When you select Edit > Preferences > Audio/Video Out, you see an Automatic option in the Video Playback section. This option is selected by default, allowing Encore DVD 2.0 to play video in a Standard Direct3D mode. If the feature is not selected, then video playback will be in GDI mode.
    The only reason to deselect this option is in the case of poor preview playback or black video. In order for the change in preference to take effect, you must close the Monitor panel and then reopen it.
    Background information
    Encore DVD 2.0 (unlike previous versions of Encore DVD) uses the Premiere Pro playback engine for video playback. Premiere Pro has three Desktop Display modes: Compatible, Standard, and Accelerated GPU Effects. In Compatible mode, video is played using the GDI. In Standard mode, video is played using Direct 3D. In Accelerated mode, video is played using Direct 3D with GPU.
    The default setting for Encore DVD 2.0 is comparable to Premiere Pro's Standard mode (Direct 3D). When the Automatic option is deselected, it is comparable to Premiere Pro's Compatible mode (GDI).
    If Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0 detects a Direct 3D error when previewing in Standard mode, it switches to Compatible mode. Encore DVD 2.0 does not have this capability, nor does it provide the same option in the User Interface for the user to switch between the three display modes. This is why the Automatic option was included in the Audio/Video Out preferences.

    Welcome to iMovie Discussions.
    Sounds like you've been shooting at p ("progressive") frame rate (..24p or similar).
    iMovie can't handle that (..except for JVC's 720p footage..) and it thinks that each frame is a "field" (..half a frame). It therefore plays those frames at double speed, thinking that there should be two 'fields' to a single frame.
    Did you shoot at a "p" frame-rate..? If so, you'll need to convert the material, with some other program, so that iMovie can handle it.
    I can't remember offhand what software might do this, but if you were shooting in HDV hi-def (which is recorded in the camera using the MPEG-2 video system) you may be able to use MPEG Streamclip (click on that blue link) to "unscramble" your material.

  • Driver-related video playback problems.

    Hi,
       I've been experiencing less than stellar video playback for a while. My system is P4 1.6A  256MB RAM with msi FX 5700 128 MB running on WIN98 SE .  The thing is that before upgrading my drivers to 50.XX series , I never had video playback problems, totally smooth, then after the 50.XX series, certain video clips froze for a second when opened, then when I installed the 5306 drivers, my system used to freeze for a second before video playback and video seeking stuttered and froze a lot.  Since upgrading to 56.55  and then 56.64 version , the freezeups and stutters are gone but now the quality of the video playback is really crappy and also there is this horizontal border around the video and it looks kinda 'squinched?!?' .  This erratic video behaviour has been going on through out my upgrade from a FX5200 to FX5700 card and with both MSI and nvidia drivers. Presently I'm using nvidia non-branded drivers 56.64.  Also, why do these newer drivers keep dummy-proofing there options pages, you cannot even experiment enough with the settings anymore and I'm afraid Riva tuner or powerstrip might not work with the newer releases.
       I haven't experienced any problems with video games, just video playback, either windowed or full-screen. I would really appreciate any help with this problem, its getting to be like an itch at the back you just can't scratch.
    Thank you
