Problem with purchased video playback and app stability

Music videos I've purchased through the iTMS play for about 20 seconds then the audio stops, and about 5 seconds later the app crashes and returns me to the main menu or the phone reboots; this problem occurs only with a video I've purchased, as any other video or even podcast plays without a hitch. It's something I can recreate without problem, I just have to play a purchased video and it will crash the app.
I've tried doing a regular reboot and even a full restore, neither of which fixes the problem.
The applications in general seem stable for the most part, but sometimes I even have problems doing basic functions like browsing pictures in Photos, using Maps, or even typing up something in Notes.
Do I have a lemon or the start of one? Is there a solution that I've overlooked? What should I do if this is just hardware failure? I really, really enjoy my phone for the majority of it and it's something that I'm always discussing with my friends and family. Thanks in advance for any answers.

Problems with Flash video playback

I'm having a problem with Flash video playback, hoping
someone here can help.
I have several movies which I have converted to .flv using
the Flash authoring tool. I have then created an .swf for each
movie, embedding the .flv along with the playback component,
playback controls, etc.
I can open these .swfs using Flash Player and everything
displays and plays as expected. However, when I embed the .swf into
a web page and open it using a browser, the playback controls don't
show up, and the movie will only play if it has been encoded to
autoplay. I am on an Intel Mac, using the latest Flash Player
plug-in, and am having this problem in both Firefox 2.0.0.11 and in
Safari 2.0.4.
I'm guessing that the problem lies in how I have encoded the
.swfs into the web page? Hoping someone has a solution, or at least
a good suggestion!
thanks,
- sounddevisor

Yes, that is exactly what I needed. Thanks!
Just to clarify for anyone else who stumbles across this -
the extra .swf files (which contain the skin for the player) need
to be in the same directory as the .html doc which is displaying
the video .swf. Hope that helps someone else!

I'm having problems with Flash Videos (Youtube and ESPN)

I have been having this problem for the last couple of days now and it is really annoying. Whenever I watch a flash video like on youtube or espn my computer freezes up and the audio will make a loud buzzing sound. I have attached a video with the post so you can see what happens. I don't have problems with anything else except this. I also get this error no matter what browser I use. I have system restored my PC as far as I can go, and I've ran a ton of scans and driver update checks and nothing seems to work.

merci a tous pour les nombreuses réponse. j'ai dû mal a les lire vue que je ne lit que le français. je vous remercié encore une fois amicalement. Blanchette 2.

Your Mac runs maintenance in the background for you.
Command + R gives you access to restore, repair, or reformat the drive using OS X Recovery
No idea why that was suggested.
You may have a third party video player installed that's causing an incompatibility issue.
Check these folders:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/
/Library/Input Methods/
/Library/InputManagers/
/Library/ScriptingAdditions
~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/
~/Library/Input Methods/
~/Library/InputManagers/
~/Library/ScriptingAdditions
The first four locations listed are in the root-level Library on your hard disk, not the user-level Library in your Home folder.The tilde (~) represents your Home folder.
To access the Home folder in OS X Lion or Mountain Lion, open the Finder, hold the Option key, and chooseGo > Library.

Problem with 5800 video playback

I am having problems with high quality playback on my 5800. When I transfer videos using high quality encoding through the OVI suite or through an external converter, and play it back on the phone, it practically never plays smoothly. it suffers from frame skips and hanging of videos in the middle of playback while the audio still continues in the background. this also holds true for the videos that came with the phone. is there any way to smooth it out. I am presently downloading the firmware update but I don't think it will fix the issue since it was not mentioned in the update list.
any help will be greatly appreciated.
thanks.

I installed the new firmware and, as I expected, it hasn't solved the problem

Memory leak problems with loading videos over and over.

I'm having memory leak problems with loading videos into a VideoPlayer aswell as FLVPlayback.
What the flash should do:
- Should be running for 7 days without having to restart the projector.
- Interface that shows people around a 360 3D model with 5 different parts and at the stops it makes during the rotation you can click to zoom in on a location which plays a movie for that aswell.
- Shows a video out of 5 parts for a 360 rotation in 3D in mp4 video (added each time and cleaned up, see code below).
- Still images are used when the video clips are done playing (MovieClip in stage).
- Should run automatically when there is no user interaction for X minutes.
What the problem is:
- The flash (as a exe and swf i guess) starts to consume memory over time (say 10 hours) until the projector crashes. This usually at around 1.75 GB of memory.
I cannot see why the Flash cannot garbage collect this and free up the memory. Mabye there is something I don't understand about the garbage collection in flash?
Here is some code from the video loading and playing:
var fVideo:VideoPlayer;
VideoCreate();
function VideoReady(pEvent:VideoEvent):void
trace("VideoReady()");
     // start playing video
fVideo.play();
function VideoLoad(pUrl:String):void
     trace("VideoLoad(" + pUrl +
     VideoCreate();
     if (pUrl != "")
          if (fVideoFolder + pUrl == fVideo.source)
               fVideo.seek(0);
VideoReady(null);
          } else {
trace(fVideo.state);
               if (fVideo.state !=
VideoState.DISCONNECTED) fVideo.stop();
fVideo.close();
fVideo.load(fVideoFolder + pUrl);
     } else {
// error no url
function VideoCreate():void
     trace("VideoCreate()");
     // remove old one
     if (getChildAt(0) == fVideo)
          removeChildAt(0);
     fVideo = new
VideoPlayer(1024, 768);
     addChildAt(fVideo, 0);
     fVideo.autoRewind = false;
fVideo.addEventListener(VideoEvent.COMPLETE, VideoDonePlaying);
fVideo.addEventListener(VideoEvent.READY, VideoReady);

Hmm. It's in connection with Dropbox. Så apparantly you can only use one of the two at the same time if you want the programs integrated in Finder.

SEVERE, MAJOR Problems with ITunes Video Playback on 64-bit Win7

So I got a new rig (ASUS G74SX running 64-bit Win7 Home Prem) after I figured my nearly 5-year old HP Pav dv9500t running 32-bit Vista Home Prem had put in good years of work. In using ITunes on the Vista system, I never really saw problems with its player on video podcasts.
Completely different story on the Win7 machine. Aside from all the other problems noted with ITunes itself (not the player) in this forum, there is this:
1. When something like UAC occurs, the video clip runs in the player, but the video is frozen (like a photographic still) while the audio continues to run on normally. Workaround: minimize then restore the player window, then the video part of playback returns. Of course that gets annoying doing that multiple times after a while.
2. With one video podcast (for example, The Young Turks podcasts), while the audio again continues normally, the video track lags unbelievably. The video appears in slow motion. The viewer risks a headache from vertigo if the viewer continues watching slow motion video unmatched with the normal audio.
At first I considered the possiblity that it was related to a 5400 rpm hard disk drive, which came with the new machine and I would not have normally have not bought myself, but I had someone buying it for me (my HP system only had 7200 rpm drives...what is ASUS thinking in letting Best Buy do a performance markdown?). Then I played that video podcast with VLC media player, and it absolutely had NO problem keeping up with the video and audio. (Another thing to like and prefer with this player is that you can keep the window on top.)
Seriously, the programming group at ITunes should be ashamed and maybe every member of its group should consider getting another day job. With each revision, ITunes seems to get worse.

My installation of version 10.6.x of ITunes does not have QuickTime.
As of version 10.5 of ITunes, QuickTime is no longer apparently bundled with ITunes, which clearly has its own player. In addition, I have used a minimal install of ITunes. This eliminates the install of the bug-ridden Bonjour service, which was filling up Windows event logs needlessly and crashing from time to time anyway.
Now although I installed ITunes only a few days ago in this new laptop, I did find ITunes in the Programs & Features page and clicked Repair. After the "repair," I played the video revealing the flaws of the ITunes player, and the playback problems were still there. I used the other media player and it played flawlessly.

Problem with iPod video playback

I have a problem with some of my movies' playbacks on my Nano 5g. Though working perfectly fine on both my computer, and my iPod video, on my Nano some videos are slightly cut off on the right of the screen, I'm missing about 10% of the video due to the cut off. Though technically I should still be able to watch the movies fine, it niggles me and inhibits my full enjoyment of the videos. Is there any way I can crop or rescale the movie so it will fit properly on my screen? Thanks
(I have already tried both wide screen and scale to screen size on the iPod)

Go to the video settings (iPod nano) and turn off fit to screen.

Genius needs to help! problems with my video card and system

Hey guys! I'm going to post my specs first so that you get a good idea of what I'm running on:
MSI Neo2 LS 865PE.....MAT=Slow
Pentium4 2.4C.....FSB=233=2.8C hyperthreading enabled ~>1.55V
Corsair TwinX 1gig PC3700.....memory on "AUTO" in BIOS with timings at 3,4,4,8 ~> 2.7V
Radeon 9700NP.....stock speeds ~>1.7V
AlienX case with 2 fan400 watt power supply and 6 case fans
Zalman Alum/Copper heatsink fan
1:I've had this motherboard for a few months now. I upgraded my video card from a nVidia Ti4200(128meg) to a Radeon 9800 a month ago, but I couldn't get it working at 8X AGP, no matter what voltages I threw at it. I returned it for a Radeon 9700NP hoping that it would work, but it still won't.
I'm using BIOS 1.9 and since there is no option to select your AGP speed, I could only try using ATI's drivers. Once booted into Windows, there is a slider you can move to select you AGP speed. On my machine It says that It has performed some tests and has concluded that AGP 4x is the best for my system....but my system supports AGP 8X!
I've moved the slider over to 8x (which requires a reboot) at least 5 times with each card but the slider refuses to move past 4xAGP after the reboot.
2: My second problem: I had an old stick of KingMax PC3200 and decided to buy 3 more sticks. Unfortunatly, the 3 I bought did not match the one I had, so I only put 2 of the new sticks I bought into my system. Immediatly, My system would crash, lock up, files were corrupt, and I got PLENTY of blue screens of death with a long message containing: 0x0000007 with all these other numbers and "0"s. I did a search online and found out I had a hardware incompatibility problem. I never got this with my old stick of ram.
I returned the 3 sticks of Ram and replaced them with the Corsair. Put my new Radeon 9700 in, formatted my hard drive....and within 24 hours, my system locked up 3 times, rebooted itself 5 times, and gave me the same BSOD as mentioned above with the same long message.
I didn't change anything except for the memory and the video card. I've been wanting to overclock, (thats why i bought the faster memory ) but I'm not sure what to do at this point.
I have my FSB at 233 but I'm scared to go any higher because of previous system instability at stock speeds. My RAM was running on 400 and MAT=Turbo with the most relaxed timings at 3,4,4,8.
I've given myself hours of sleepless nights formatting when my system wouldnt boot into windows; overclocking....etc. I NEED HELP. PLEASE. PLEASE. Anything could work at this point.
I'm trying to get more info on how to run my system at a 5:4 ratio, also.
If anyone has problems like me or knows what could be the problem with my system, please reply to this post, it would help me a lot. I've been trying to fix these problems for a few months now so anything is greatly appreciated.

Thanks a lot to you guys that responded. I brought my computer home this past holiday and I want to let you know where I stand as of now. I guess this thread is like my blog for my computer. I want to clear some things before my first post makes everyone confused.
1- I have only 2 sticks of memory in my system: the Corsair PC3700 TwinX 512x2
I returned the 3 KingMax I bought, and still keep my old stick just in case.
2- I am using the 400 watt power supply that came with the case. I read some reviews of the case and I know the reviewer did not have problems with the power supply. In my BIOS, there are some voltages it is weak on. Lets say: it it should be 5.00+, my power supply will be feeding it 4.96v or something like that, but I dont know, or think, that is a major problem...
3- My computer will refuse to boot if memory speeds are set at anything below 400. SO....if I want to use a 5:4 ratio and have to set my memory speeds to "333" in BIOS, my system refuses to boot.
4- This morning, I did manage to overclock my FSB to 250. Specs are as follow:
Memory Timing @3,4,4,8,4.....speed set at "AUTO".....MAT at "SLOW"
MY 2.4C's FSB was raised to 250 = 3.0gig
AGP/PCI frequency: 67.xx/3x.xx (cant go any lower)
CPU voltage: 1.5500
Memory voltage: 2.75
Video Card voltage: 1.7
Everything was fine for the whole day until I heard something click in my computer around midnight, and then seconds later, my computer froze and made a continuous beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep. (you can imagine)
This "click" and system crash has been plaguing me for months now. I dont know whay it happens. I was just using AIM when I heard the click and my heart stopped.
My memory speeds have been set to "AUTO" even at the FSB of 250. But I don't know if this still means my system is at a 1:1 ratio. I know the BIOS then adjusts the memory to work at 500 if my FSB is 250...so I assume it is? I love 3gig, but somehow I feel that 2.8 is faster, since the FSB=233 running parallel to my memory, also at 233
A FSB of 250 is good enough for me, that's what I've been waiting 6 months for. If anyone knows how to set other ratios to achieve a FSB of 250+, please let me know, but as I said, my memory won't boot if its set at "333"

Problem with itunes video playback.

many of my high quality video files seem to run so smoothly with my media players lik VLC, but when i play them in itunes the video gets stuck and the audio keeps playing.. how do i solve this..

What was the fix for this? Everything has sucked for my itunes video playback since the last major revision release.

Lenovo A536 problem with audio video playback.

I've bought lenovo a536 smartphone 3days ago and I couldn't listen to music continuesly.
The audio or video player is stop playing or pausing unexpectedly. It is only giving problem while using headset.
Try to fix this critical bug.
It just ruined the reputation of lenovo.
Such a worst design ever with lots of bugs.

I have more informations..
First a iWire cable is a simple display port to Hdmi 1.4 cable (you can buy it from applestore and it support audio + video).
SO, I installed windows 7 on bootcamp, and when I plug the iWire cable on my macbook pro while the home theater + videoprojector are ON, windows crash and restart...
If I plug the iWire cable on the macbook but if only the home theater is ON and the videoprojector is OFF, then it works... The hometheater is recognized as a TV...
What I don't understand is that my apple TV don't have problem with this config, nether my westerdigital tv.. It's only with a macbook.. display port should not be exactly same thing as a hdmi output maybe.. :/
I think I will have to buy a longer hdmi cable to plug it on the vp, and a optical cable for the audo to my ht :/

Problem with previewing videos. And a second question

I'm using CS4. So I got this program in last week and have been working on learning some of the tricks for it. I'm recording most of my footage in HD. When viewing fottage in the Source player it's fine, but when I actually use the preview player, the one to the far right by default, the video is choppy and hangs, pretty sure it's just using a bit too much of my resources currently, I don't care about seeing the preview player video in HD,what can I do to make the preview player use less resources but still keep my videos in HD format so that when I export they are still in 720p or 480p. I know it has to do with creating a new sequence, but can't figure out which setting I need to change and to what.
Second, sometimes I'm only able to record footage in 480p because of various reasons, I have the ability to record in 720p most of the time, the problem is when I have a project that involves both resolutions. I can only see 4 options, 1 record the 720p stuff in 480p when the project involves 480p, 2 scale the 480p video up to "720" (and yes I know this isn't ideal but for my projects this may actually work), 3 add the 480p footage in and simply let it be smaller than the 720p footage and last, make 2 different videos one for the 720 one for the 480, and have my video be 2 parts. Is there any option I missed? I do not believe I can have mutlple sequences per video file, is that correct?
Thanks in advance.

Glad that you saw the red line. Hitting the Enter key will Render your Timeline. It can be limited, by using the WAB (Work Area Bar), in the same area of the timeline. It has a little "bracket" at each end, and you can drag them to limit the WAB. I use this a lot, when I am Keyframing animation and only want to Render a small area. [Note: the WAB can also be used to limit one's Export too.]
Is there a way I can make sure the sequence matches up to the video I'm importing?
If you generate the footage, the easiest way to get full determination of its properties, is to note the camera's settings. If you did not shoot the footage, then the freeware utility, G-Spot, will give you all of the info. If necessary, you can do a Desktop Preset (Custom) for your Sequence to make it match your footage. Say your footage was 640 x 320 @ 25 fps. You could set those parameters in your Desktop Sequence settings. You want to match your Project/Sequence to your footage. If you need another size for output, you do that in Adobe Media Encoder (AME).
Good luck,

Problems with Purchased Video-On-Demand

Hello,
I purchased a movie from video on demand and it is not playing properly.
I have used on demand many times (although not VOD - I've used HBO & Showtime On Demand, etc.).
When I go to view the movie, the screen is all choppy, and I can still see the On Demand interface channel in the background.
If I rewind or fast forward the movie, the picture is crystal clear, however when I hit play I have the same garbled picture. There is also no sound.
I tried stopping and restarting the movie, testing a different On Demand channel, and restarting my cable box, all to no avail.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks so much!

You said you tested another VOD... Did the other have the same issue, or not?
Unplug power from the Set-top box and router for a few minutes..... PLug them back in and try again... if still not, then remove power from the STB and reset the router with a paperclip or pen in the reset hole on the back of the router for 15 seconds... turn them on and try again
If that does not resolve the issue, contact tech support and have them try to reset the STB and possibly reboot the ONT, and then go from there

Problems with HD video playback/editing

I bought an Aiptek A-HD video camera from best buy about 6 months ago, and it's great but the video is really glitchy on my computer (Dimension 4700). I assume I need to upgrade my graphics card, but I don't really know what's what. Help please?

Video RAM is only used in large quantities when the card is in 3D mode (primarily for storage of textures).
For any 2D operations, very little video RAM is required.
I strongly suggest focusing on your CPU/system RAM, then later on your video card. Even the Intel GMA X4500MHD (a barebones/basic chipset) is capable of full H.264/AVC offloading for playback.
For editing you will be solely CPU-bound. The exception is that some super-high-end editing software CAN offload to newer NVidia GPUs (using a technique called GP-GPU), but so far almost no software does it, and a lot of reviews indicate that the video quality suffers in such cases.
