Player 10 - Slow and Distorted MP3 Playback.

I began experiencing this problem once I download Flash
Player 10. The mp3 playback is slow and sounds very distorted.
This only seems to occur with mp3s at a 48k sample rate. Mp3s
at a sample rate of 44.1k sound normal. Is there a way to fix this
without converting the sample rate? Is Adobe working on a solution?
Thank you.

I'm getting the same thing. Are all of you on Apple platform? It seems to be the only place this is showing up.
Macbook Pro - OSX 10.5.6
When I uninstall flash player and reinstall 9 it works fine. On another not when using CS4 at work the same thing happens locally when I test the movies.
It's sounds like music on nitrous in hell. .. . .

My audio is really slow and distorted whenever I try and play a video sent through an emails

The audio of any video Link in my emails that I receive,when clicked on to play it, the vocals are very slow and distorted. It sounds like the monotone sound of vocals being distorted to make it unrecognizable. It has been this way ever since I downloaded and installed it.

Currently there is no Flash support for Firefox on Android. Fret not though, there are mobile developers working on front-end Flash support currently and if all follows through you will see Flash support in the near future in a future release of Firefox Aurora.

Distorted MP3 playback

Here is a problem that has been vexing me for several days:
The latest batch of MP3s that I have ripped from my CD collection - they sound fine when played back on the desktop in winamp or itunes. But when I copy them to the ipod they sound distorted and warbling (under water or flanging sound) on the ipod. I'm using the same Sennheiser headphone set, switching between the ipod and computer.
Detailed information: These are MP3s ripped at 320kps. The warbling/distortion is not subtle (my girlfriend who is no audiophile can clearly notice). The strange thing about this is the mp3 tracks I ripped (same software and settings) copied to the ipod several weeks ago sound great. The existing library on the ipod sounds normal.
As a test - I re-ripped one of the offending tracks (acoustic piano and cello - Beethoven) in Exact Audio Copy (the program originally used), then in iTunes @ 320kps MP3, then iTunes @ 320kps AAC. All 3 of these tracks sound fine on the computer, but when copied to the ipod - the AAC sounds fine, but the 2 MP3s sound bad. Then I ripped the same track in EAC @128kps and in iTunes @160kps. These sound OK (the 128kps file, it is hard to tell if there is warble or the standard compression). One of the 320kps tracks I ripped before the problem started, I recopied to the ipod - that sounds OK also. So has something changed on my desktop that would affect both iTunes and EAC ripping - I assume they used different encoders/dlls? Is there some audiophile hating DRM?
I've reset the ipod a few times and it has the most current software. Besides a restore - any suggestions? THANKS!

No its not your iPod's problem I think - because on my little flash mp3 does the same when I load the songs I encoded from iTunes onto it.
I don't know if there's an answer to this on Apple website, but it may have something to do with bit rate and cetain frequencies. I recently mass-encoded some of my favorite tunes using 96kbps on iTunes, and loaded them onto my flash mp3 player. It warbled. But the same song, when in 320kbps, did not warble.
I also think the distortion builds up with time. For example, if you keep re-encoding the same song over and over with different bitrates, then the warble sound may start to be emphasized.
Just some guesses on the problem; I'm not exactly a technitian either so I dont know whats causing this...

Are there any known problems with Macs and the mp3 playback in Adobe Connect ?

One user using an Apple Mac has complained of not being able to hear the mp3 sound playback in a meeting.
Is this a problem with Apple Mac and mp3 compatibility or is it an individual soundcard issue ?

I use several Macs with Adobe Connect and I have even created MP3 files for playback in the room. Works fine on all my macs. It's basic Flash. Suggest they clear their browser cache, replace their host-add-in if using one. Run the audio wizard as well to make sure sound is working in Connect.
All of the Adobe Connect Government engineers use Macs all the time so we've never had an issue with MP3's.

Quicktime, DVD Player slow and stuttering..everything else also slow

I just upgraded to Leopard on a 17" G4. Everything is slower, but especially Quicktime and DVD. A movie's sound is OK, but the video sputters and stalls. Called Apple - they had me trash all the various preferences and start over - no change. I did an archive and reinstall - also to no effect. However,I created a brand new user and Quicktime works fine in this user (playing a movie from an external drive).
Any ideas? My job has me displaying QT movies all the time. How can I stop pulling out my hair in anguish? I have cache 512 Kb, memory 1 GB, and about 5 Gigs available (install took about 11 Gigs). Is it a memory problem?
Thanks.
Carl

I had the same problem on my 17" G4 right after my Leopard upgrade, but it eventually went away all by itself.
Try this. Open a Quicktime movie but do NOT play it. Wait a minute. Now start playing it. If your system acts like mine the movie will now play without stuttering -- even in full screen. Whereas if you start playing it immediately it will stutter. That "minute" is not hard and fast. It just takes some time for something to happen in the background AFTER the file is open and BEFORE you start playing it to get smooth playback.
I've not idea what's going on here. It may be related to Spotlight indexing, or something else. All I can say is after a day or two I stopped seeing any stuttering even for files that I began to Play immediately upon opening.

Differences in AS2 and AS3 MP3 Playback?

This works in AS2 and plays fine:
var my_sound:Sound = new Sound();
my_sound.loadSound("
http://download.podango.com/mediatracker/1/67943/ApplePhoneShow_46.mp3",
true);
This is chopping in AS3:
var snd:Sound = new Sound(new URLRequest("
http://download.podango.com/mediatracker/1/67943/ApplePhoneShow_46.mp3"));
snd.play();
Is there something I don't know about how MP3's are handled
in AS3?
Thanks,

Crazy, right after reading your post I check my current
project online using FireFox and IE 6 and noticed they are
inconsistent. I am also loading an external image into Flash and
with FireFox it seems that it doesn’t recognize the image
instantly however with IE it does (hence with your issue it
doesn’t know the width of the image). Comparing your code
with mine, we are both using an onEnterFrame event handler and Fuse
script. So those would be the culprits. I think you are using an
older version of Fuse then I (I am using the latest version). With
your code, you can use the MovieClipLoader class to retrieve the
bytes loaded for the loading image instead of onEnterFrame. That
might solve your issue. If I find out a solution I will post back
here.
But this is not uncommon, finding one browser acting
different then the other, I have witnessed it several times.

Slow and distorted songs

Hey my songs and videos are all distorted, there like fuzzy and stuff, what can i do to fix this? Does anyone else have this problem?
Dell 8400 Windows XP

You've probably read this elsewhere already, but this is an iTunes 7 problem, I'm just hazarding a guess that's what you have installed. Unfortunately, I'm having the same problem and (im)patiently awaiting a fix from Apple.

UCCX Recordings are Slow and Distorted

I have just replaced an IPCC 3.5 server with a brand new UCCX 7.1 server. As with the 3.5 server, I used a workflow to force UCCX to record all inbound calls to the helpdesk queue. Unfortunately, all of the recording sound like they're being recorded at 60-70% speed and are highly garbled(I have checked this both through the supervisor's desktop which are reading the RAW files and by exporting/listening to the WAV files directly) . My first inclination was that it was a SPAN issue with duplicate packets but I don't know how that could be since we simply swapped out the servers. None of the network equipment or configuration was changed. CUCM was also upgraded at the same time but that shouldn't affect the recordings. I have Wireshark installed on the UCCX server and when I watch the monitoring NIC on the UCCX server, I receive no duplicate packets. If I decode the RTP streams and have Wireshark play it back, it comes through clear with no speed or distortion issues. Anyone have any other ideas why this might be happening?
Thanks,
Kyle

It turns out that I was receiving SPAN RTP streams on the monitoring NIC and also receiving the recordings dictated by the Workflow on the primary NIC. Since Wireshark was only watching the mornitoring NIC, I saw only one stream, but UCCX was taking the stream from each NIC and combining them before writing to the RAW file. As soon as I turned off one option (I chose to kill the SPAN) everything started recording clearly.

ITunes ripping certain CDs slow and creating distorted tracks

I have just recently swicthed to iTunes after getting my new laptop and ripped my entire CD collection using it (iTunes 9.1.1 I believe).
Anyway, out of probably 200 CDs I've found 5 that just won't rip properly and I can't, no matter what I look for figure out why?
If anyone could help, the problem is that iTunes claims to be ripping at speeds of on average x0.4 to x0.6 (Where as all other CDs I get about x13) and estimating a rip time, but the estimation only goes down by 2 seconds every 40/50 seconds. After I finally gave in and let it rip an entire track (which took around an hour) the song was broken and distorted almost beyond recognition. I then decided to rip the track using Windows Media Player and it did it just fine.
The Albums are;
Muse -Showbiz
Muse -Absolution
Muse -HAARP
Muse -Hullabloo Soundtrack
Death Cab For Cutie -Plans
If that makes any difference to the problem
The CDs are clean and just about brand new since I only ever rip my CDs and then reserve them to the shelf, does anyone have any idea what's going wrong at all.
Thankyou

You might be able to see if Gracenote is responsible for the slow-down by using the script Disable Gracenote
Hope this helps.

Adobe Flash Player slow, jerky, and I NEED HELP A.S.A.P.

Hello everybody, and how are you all doing on this wonderful Friday?
Today after doing research on the support website for Adobe ShockWave flash player, I'm here as a last resourt.
Allow me to explain the issue!
WARNING:
THIS IS GOING TO BE EXTREMELY LONG, BUT I NEED HELP VERY VERY BADLY!!
I've waisted people's time because of this issue.
I'm using an HP Windows 7 Laptop with latest version of Windows 7!
I have Adobe ShockWave 11.7 the LATEST VERSION and It is a great program.
However in one of my simulators which is a V500 Evita Ventilator simulator from the company Drager, the performance is HORRID, and when I say horrid, I mean HORRID TIMES 30 and then some.
Keep in mind that this has been tested by the company on other computers, and it works just fine, however on mine the waveforms and data is choppy, slow and what it will do is it will be working smoothly one second, the next second It lags and then catches up, then lags again, and It basically drags along miserably. I used this program online and then when I contacted Drager the owners of the simulator, they thought I get a DVD of the simulator. THEY GAVE IT TO ME FREE OF CHARGE. I got it, and It was still slow and Jerky. I had used Google Chrome to use the simulator online HOWEVER, when I used the DVD, It was still slow. I have a LOAD of computer space, and have tried uninstalling Adobe Shockwave, Reinstalling it, then doing that several times. NOTHING. NOW WHAT??
I'm desperate right now. When I say DESPERATE, THIS HAS GOT TO BE FIXED AS SOON AS POSSIBLY POSSIBLE.
ASAPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is there some setting I can adjust?
Or SOMETHING???
The thing is other things that require Adobe Shockwave work just fine. I use a lot of simulators.
Its just this simulator.
PLEASE RESPOND!!
THANK YOU, and God bless.

Iphone Music player skips and stutters with MP3s

With the upgrade to iOS 5 (and 5.0.1) on my iPhone 3GS (32GB) I began to notice skips and stutters on numerous MP3s about 10 to 30 seconds into the song. I don't remember having any problems prior to iOS5 upgrade.
The skips and stutters are somewhat reproducible in that, if I hear the skip or stutter, if I go back to the beginning of the song and play the song again, the skip or stutter will happen in approximately the same spot and will be of approximately the same nature (a repeated phrase or a jump or a distortion) but it isn't exactly the same.
Most of my songs are 256kbps VBR MP3s ripped either by iTunes from my own CDs or purchased from Amazon.
The facts (1) that the skip/stutter/or distortion is not exactly the same each time (2) the skips and stutters seem localized to the first 10 to 30 seconds of the song, then they play fine afterward, (3) that I don't have problems playing these songs under iTunes on my MacBook pro, and (4) it happens both with iTunes ripped MP3s and Amazon MP3s, would seem to be some form of OS problem rather than coding error. My guess would be some form of buffering issue or OS scheduling issue.
Has anyone else noticed these problems?

I experienced the same problem with my Iphone 5 skipping and not playing the music in my library correctly. I called apple and they gave me a solution that worked so far.
The problem in my case was created by restoring the new phone from icloud. Apparently, if you have a lot of music or data, the music files don't completely download.
Of course, make sure your music is backed up before starting
Solution: connect iphone to itunes / select the music tab / uncheck sync music altogether / hit apply or sync (this should remove all music files from your phone) / when completed, re-check the sync entire music library or select your custom playlists-songs you want on your phone / then click apply or sync to put back all music on phone.
This should solve your problems

Zr 100 playback is choppy and sound is distorted. Playback is undetermined if clear or not.

I have owned this camera for some time now. It has not been through any trauma or drops. However lately when I go to playback any recordings the playback are chopped up and distorted. Please advise.

Hi greeneye1!
Thanks for the post!
It is possible that this is related to the tape you are using.
How old is the tape?
Have you tried other tapes?
If the tape is older, I recommend that you try another tape if you have not already done so. Try recording new video to the newer tape and see if it still plays back the same way. If it is still choppy and distorted, the camcorder may be in need of repair.

I downloaded the latest version of adobe flash player 2 versions loaded and now it's very slow and the wheel keeps spinning

My computer is running very slow, and the colored wheel keeps spinning causing pages to load slowly. I recently downloaded adobe flash player. It seems 2 versions loaded. Could this be causing the problem? How can I uninstall these programs? Thank you

Ipod classic and some distorted/clipped playback

After spending many years with my 3G ipod I got a new 80GB ipod classic (thanks to my wife) but am having a problem with playback on 1.1/1.1.1. It seems that some songs are playing back exceptionally loud causing the output to be clipped/distorted.
Playback is through the digital connector and not the headphone output. This is through a iTrip auto scan modulator.
On the 1.0 firmware I found a work around. By going into the Volume Level while not connected and then connect I could "trick" the output on the digital out to adjust. Now this work around seems to be disabled and I cannot figure out how to fix it.
I checked some of the individual sounds in iTunes to make sure they were not bumped up in volume level and they are not.
Any thoughts?

I had the same problems, and I found that using the AACgain program with iGain at the front end solved the problem. However, this does not work on songs bought from iTunes as they are protected. Spoken to iTunes about it, but they were no help. Can't understand why they don't run a gain adjuster on songs before they offer them for download. Won't be buying from iTunes anymore.
