thanx dan34

Next time include the model of computer that you are using. Then the people that respond to these questions can hopefully give you a better answer. I would go to the Control Panel and click on Displays. Check the Resolution and make sure it is set for the default of your computer. Usually that is the same as the highest resolution available. Check Device Manager in the Control Panel too. Make sure that there are no conflicts or anything disabled. Finally make sure that the computer is using the latest video driver.

ITunes crashed during sync, now Podcasts have sound but no video.

My wife has a 5th gen 30GB iPod. It has the latest system software from iPod Updater, and we're running the latest iTunes.
Yesterday she was doing a sync, and iTunes crashed on her in the middle of it. Now, even with an iPod Restore and reset, and a restart of her Windows XP machine, Podcasts won't play properly on the iPod. They play fine in iTunes, but only the audio portion plays on the iPod. Non-Podcast video (such as music videos) plays fine on the iPod.
What happened here? What's wrong?
Thanks for any help in solving this.

An update (and a solution):
Looks like the iTunes crash was only a clue as to what was happening elsewhere, and a slightly misleading clue at that.
Video Podcasts were placing themselves in the "Music" section on the iPod, and it was from there that we were attempting to play them. This worked just fine until iTunes's crash. After the crash, only the audio part would play.
It was only late last night that after lots of investigation my wife discovered that the video Podcasts were ALSO installing themselves into a "Videos > Video Podcasts" sub section!
It's stupidly obvious now, but was not yesterday: Video Podcasts will only play the audio portion when played from the "Music" section, but will play both audio and video when played from "Video > Video Podcasts". For some reason we had not discovered the "Video Podcasts" subsection until last night.
Then a second solution was discovered to have been necessary. One Podcast video still would not play properly, even from the correct section. This turned out to be due to a need to "Convert" it to play on the iPod. This page has the answer to that:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301461
iTunes online Help has all the answers to this, but we thought it was an iPod problem, and the iPod manual was no help at all. The answers to this in iTunes Help are found under:
"Browsing and watching videos"
and
"Converting a video to work with iPod"
It really helps to PRINT those two subjects, so you can refer to the paper page instead of trying to toggle back and forth between the iTunes screen and its Help screen.
I hope this topic helps someone else.

My apple tv and airplay works great except when I try to play a dvd on my macbook. Have sound but no video.

You won't be able to view them via Apple TV, correct. It is not meant for this function, if that's your intended purpose its best to get a DVD player

Trouble shoot Issue in QT Pro: I have sound but no Video after convert

I hope this hasn't been answered somewhere else if so I apologize. I have been using QuickTime Pro to convert .mkv files to .mp4. I muxed them with MkvMerge. Then I open them in QuickTime Pro and export as a mp4 for Ps3 playback. They are 1080p Hd movie files and I have had no problems until today. I have one mkv that when converted to mp4 plays only sound and no video. Its just a black screen. I checked the muxed files when I open them in QT Pro and they work fine so its only after I convert the .mka to .mp4 that I have the video issue. I've already done a few other files so I don't know why this isn't working? Any ideas?

It could be a 'difficult' form of Matroska file. FYI Matroska is just a container like MOV or AVI, and some mkv have the video encoded with Real Video Codec (RV9 RV10). Perian+QT can't decode this, but VLC will play .mkv files just fine on OS X, as long as they don't use H.264!
It's a bit of a lottery until Matroska decide to support the Apple platform. I have found this:
http://mkv4mac.free.fr/index.php?lang=en&p=lec
which may help.
But there may be another workaround: 1. Get Info the mkv file
2. Change to extension to wmv. Save as wmv and that could work better.
Or this link may be helpful:

Recently, a poster (ZachP14) suggested this:
"There's a program called Plex that runs .mkv files awesome on my 2.0 ghz macbook."

Maybe worth a try?

Published Videos from IPhoto to Gallery have sound but no video in browser

I've published some iphoto pictures and videos to a gallery on MobileMe. The videos in the gallery will play in the browser but there is no video, just sound.
The videos in IPhoto work fine, but through the browser they have no image. Do I need a special plugin to play these videos off the site? I simply let IPhoto upload them to the gallery, so I assumed it would do whatever it needed to ensure they will play...
Any help would be appreciated...I've tried viewing the videos with Firefox and Safari, but I get the same behavior. I tried downloading the file and it is the same bahavior, however the originals in the IPhoto albums work just fine...I assume this means a conversion is happening, but to what format?? They have an AVI extension, were originally downloaded from a Canon 770is camera.
I confirmed I can play the video on a Windows computer. I also downloaded the file from the gallery and opened in Quicktime and used the inspector to see:
Format is 'MJPG' 640x480..it also downloaded with a .MOV extension rather than the AVI listed in gallery....

Heya Brendt,
Is the video within iTunes or just in your movies folder?
If it is not iTunes then ignore the "itunes" portion below.
Remove the following files to the trash (do not empty until you test for function):
~/library/caches
~/library/preferences/com.apple.itunes.plist
~/library/preferences/com.apple.frontrow.plist
- Repair your permissions - > http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=DiskUtility/10.5/en/duh17.html
- Restart your computer again
- Test and see how its working
Hope that helps!

Quicktime movies saved on mac have sound but no video in QTpro (windows)

I have QT files saved on a hard drive by someone on mac (hard drive formatted to be compatible with both mac and windows) The QT files wouldn't open initially, I upgraded to QT pro and now they open and play, but only sound, no video. When I try to import them into Adobe Premiere elements, i get a missing codec error message, but it doesn't tell me what codec I need.
Has anyone run into this problem and found a solution?

Open the file using QuickTime Player and then open the Movie Inspector window to view the codecs used.

Flash player worked for months but now I have audio but no video / Windows 8 / Help

Flash player worked for months. But today suddenly the video part stopped working. So I have audio and a blank screen. This is across all applications: youtube, live streaming, etc.

To help troubleshoot we'll need the following system information:
Operating system
Browser
Flash Player version - http://adobe.ly/wNzNAu
Web Page URL
Steps to reproduce
When reporting issues with video or audio, it's also helpful to get your system hardware and driver details. Instructions for finding this information can be found here:
Windows - http://adobe.ly/KShBWi
Mac - http://adobe.ly/16Odlzb
Finally, sometimes video and audio problems are caused at a lower level and not directly related to Flash Player. I recommend trying both of the links below to see how they perform. If the problem exists with both, then Flash Player is most likely not the culprit as the HTML5 video link does not use Flash Player when playing. You can verify the use of HTML5 by right clicking the HTML5 video and looking for the words "About HTML5" at the bottom of the context menu.

I have sound but no video while using the Apple TV-it says Internet Radio, does anyone know how to correct it?

I'm wondering if anyone can help, i can hear the audio and on my TV it says Internet Radio. When i hit the icon for Apple TV, it is selected, but still no Video. I'm trying to air play from my iPad Directv App so i can watch the game on a big screen.
Thanks!!!!

Apple says they are aware and working on it. The Sound is "not" lost and may be retrievable after their fix. It is an iMovie problem. It may take a while as they are preoccupied with the new "Mountain Lion" release. In the meantime I am saving my movies on my MacBook. If you can record your sound with a setting other them FPEG 2 that may help. I can't, so I am stuck. Big trip to NWT in late August so I am holding my breath. Hope they are faster than fixing the Numbers upload to iCloud.

Airplay only sound but no video

Have sound but no picture....until I unplug it

Since having the TV service hooked up about 3 weeks ago, I have had to reset my stb by unplugging it because at least a dozen times I have turned the TV on to find that I have sound but no video. I have my TV up via HDMI for the video and my sound is via an optical cable into my receiver.

OK, there's a lot of misinformation out there. I will try to clear it up. Some will attack me, but unless you are a super-high-end audio-video phile, the cables you use for any feed with RCA connectors are interchangeable.
Video -
(1) best is Digital via HDMI (up to 1080i for FIOS)
(2) Next best is Analog Component (3 RCA cables for R, G, andB) (also up to 1080i, but may down-res for DRM-flagged content)
(3) Next (BIG step down) is Analog S-video - (unique connector and cable - 480p);
(4) Then worst is Analog Composite (single RCA cable (usually yellow connector) - 480i
Audio -
(5) best is digital HDMI (which can carry newest lossless CODECs like Dolby TrueHD and DTS HD Master Audio - up to 7.1 tracks) - but you need a compatible receiver to decode them;
(6) Next best: Some sources decode the lossless CODECs internally and output all 8 channels via 8 Analog RCA cables - but you need a receiver that can accept 7.1 analog inputs;
(7a) The next DIGITAL Audio options (equal in quality) are either Optical (uses TOSlink fiber optic connector and cable); or
(7b) Digital coaxial - which is carried by a standard RCA cable. These can carry Dolby Digital and DTS tracks up to 5.1, but these are COMPRESSED Audio streams and not the lossless HD Audio that HDMI can pass;
(8) Analog 2-channel audion via "L-R" (Left-Right) RCA cables - usually red and white, or red and black. Simple 2-channel stereo audio.
For all of the "RCA-type" connections, be it Analog Component video at 1080i (item 2 above), Composite VIdeo (4), lossless analog multichannel audio (6), Digital Coax audio (7b) or 2-channel L-R audio (8), they all use the same type of RCA cables and as long as your cable is not a real POS, will pass your signals just fine. For NONE of these applications do you require any expensive, high-end cables.

HT204291 Have sound but no picture

I have sound but no video on my tv using apple tv, I am using an iPad to send to apple tv

Yes Amazon block their app too.
AirPlay Mirroring by default will mirror anything on your screen, so it's Amazon that block it, but to be fair to them, they may have to under the license they have to distribute the content with the movie studios, but I don't know for sure.

Quicktime sound but no video

I have sound but no video with my newly updated quicktime 7. How do I troubleshoot this. I tried reloading the software.

If you're referring to videos on the web, run 'iDelete QT and Flash Caches' and read the second dialog box, then click 'Yes'.

What is the driver version for your NVIDIA GeForce GT640?
There is a known issue specific to Premiere Elements 10 and NVIDIA GeForce. The Announcement at the top of this forum tells it all - detailed description of problem, references, fixes, and fix details.
The following is a copy paste of that Announcement....
If you are a Premiere Elements 10 user whose Windows computer uses a NVIDIA GeForce video card
and you are experiencing Premiere Elements 10 display and/or unexplained program behavior, then your
first line of troubleshooting needs to be rolling back the video card driver version instead of assuring that
it is up to date.
Since October 2013 to the present, there have been a growing number of reports about display and
unexplained workflow glitches specific to the Premiere Elements 10 user whose Windows computer
has a NVIDIA GeForce video card. If this applies to you, then the “user to user” remedy is to roll back
the NVIDIA GeForce video card driver as far as is necessary to get rid of the problems. The typical driver
roll back has gone back as far as March – July 2013 in order to get a working Premiere Elements 10.
Neither NVIDIA nor Adobe has taken any corrective action in this regard to date, and none is expected moving forward.
Since October 2013, the following thread has tried to keep up with the Premiere Elements 10 NVIDIA reports
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1317675
Older NVIDIA GeForce drivers can be found NVIDIA Driver Downloads - Advanced Search
A February 2014 overview of the situation as well as how to use the older NVIDIA GeForce drivers for
the driver roll back can be found http://atr935.blogspot.com/2014/02/pe10-nvidia-video-card-roll-back.html
Please refer to the following for the driver version history of your NVIDIA card
Based on history, you should be using
GeForce 320.18 Driver
320.18
May 23, 2013
Please review and consider and then let us know the results.
Thank you.
