Problems playing by genre??

Is anyone else having trouble playing by genre? when I sort (both in iTunes and on my iPod) by genre then hit the Random button, the players only cycle through 3 songs although there is many more songs in the genre.
When I remove the random selection, it just repeats the same song over and over again.
Any advice would be appreciated.
thanks

Possibly a spelling issue. Does the genre list have more than one entry for the genre you are having problem with? This can be causes by a space character after the last letter, computer still sees spaces.
In the playlist is it set to limit to three songs?

Problem Playing Video in Premiere Pro CS4

I am having a problem playing video in premiere pro. When I input any movie clip and try to play it in both the timeline and in the preview mode, the audio works fine but the video only plays a few seconds worth of footage at a really slow pace so that it takes up the entire time. For instance if I load a 3 minute video, the sound is normal but over the coarse of that 3 minutes I will only see a small number of the frames and they are cycled through in ultra slow motion.
All the clips play normally outside of premiere. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the program. I have premiere installed on my laptop and it works fine. I have tried rendering the video first and it still doesn't work. I have tried holding shift before the program is loading and it did nothing. I have downloaded all the updates too. Videos seem to play fine in After Effects.
Also, I am having trouble when importing HD video into premiere and after effects. For some reason the programs freeze when I try to import footage from my Creative Vado HD pocket video camera.
Here are my computer specs
Windows Vista Ultimate 32 Bit
Intel Core2 Quad q8200
ATI Radeon 4670 Graphics Card
Gigabyte Motherboard
4GB of 800 Mhz RAM
This is really frustrating. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Keith,
The file extension .AVI indicate a "wrapper." All sorts of stuff can be in that wrapper *. Some of that stuff will play/edit fine. Much will not and create issues, as you have seen. Your camera uses a CODEC to create those .AVI files. That CODEC is the issue. I recommend G-Spot to find out what the CODEC is. Some times it's just a matter of having the proper CODEC installed on the computer. Most of the time, it takes much more than that - hence Eddie's links on "conversion." At least G-Spot will get us all on the same playing field, and explicit help can follow - probably to study Eddie's links. My guess is that your camera uses some form of DivX CODEC, hence the problem that you see.
Good luck,
Hunt
* Think of .AVI like the foil wrapper on a stick of gum, when you remove the outer lable. You know it's gum, but not what flavor. Could be Juicyfruit, or Spearmint, or Double-mint. G-Spot will tell you the flavor. PrPro likes some flavors, but hates others.

Creative Zen 32GB "There is a problem playing this audio" AAC

GCreative Zen 32GB "There is a problem playing this audio" AACZ All right, this is driving me nuts. I have a Zen 32GB and a Vista 32-bit machine. I have been encountering a lot of problems playing AAC files on my Zen--many of the tracks stop short, and the error message "There is a problem playing this audio" appears.
These are AAC files that I ripped off my own CDs using iTunes, so there are no DRM issues. ? I'm not sure if the problem lies in the actual ripping process (although the problem tracks play on my iPod without problem), the importing into my Zen using Zen Media Explorer, or my Zen trying to play the tracks. I've tried turning off my antivirus program, as well as checking the box in iTunes that double-checks for audio errors after ripping. I thought at first that it could be related to scratched CDs, but it also happens with pristine CDs.
I have latest firmware (.2.03) installed, and also the latest version of Zen Media Explorer.
I've searched this forum as well as Google for this exact error message, and don't get any related hits. Can anyone out there help me? Please?

Thanks for that response--I was beginning to feel a little neglected. It's disappointing, though--one of the reasons I bought the Zen was because it advertised AAC compatibility, so that I could have just one library of AAC files for my iPod and Zen, instead of entirely duplicate libraries of AAC and WMA files. Most of the AAC files I've imported into the Zen play fine--I just have to check all of the tracks to see which ones have that audio error. Usually, if I re-import the track, it comes out fine (eventually).

Problems playing mp3s after installing iTunes 7.1

I installed iTunes 7.1 today. After that, I have problems playing mp3 songs on my iPod (80 GB). The AAC-files play well. The mp3 songs can also be played on iPod via iTunes when its connected to my computer, but when I disconnect from the computer, the mp3 songs starts, and play for about 2 second, and then jumps to the end of the song and stop.
Very thankful for any help.

that's typically caused by a problem with your QuickTime. (itunes uses QuickTime for audio and video playback.)

Problem playing Audio CD (.cda files) on Windows Vista

Hey,
I am having problems playing an Audio CD. On XP everything is working fine. On Vista, the files seem to be playing, but I am not getting any sound (playing .wav files for example is also no problem, it's just the cda files from an audio cd).
This problem does not only occur in my own code, also the JMStudio application produces no sound playing tracks from the cd.
Is there anything that needs to be configured in Vista in order to make that work?
Thanks a lot,
sirpreis

I should point out there's no such thing as playing a CDA file. CDA files are simply indexing information about where to find the actual track data on the disk.
My best guess is that Vista's sandbox won't let Java go and fetch the actual audio tracks from the CD, because it's more restrictive than Vistas.
Other good guesses would including that whatever native code JMF uses to fetch CD audio works in XP but it doesn't work in Vista. That would certainly make sense...
If JMStudio doesn't work, your code probably wont ever work either. Sorry :-/

Problems playing movies from Time Capsule

I am having a problem playing movies from my Time Capsule to my Apple TV. I can make them work but have to go through the following process: I have to play the movie through iTunes and then stop it, and then go play the movie on apple TV. I have to do this each time I want to watch one of the movies. Any thoughts on this issue?

Hopefully this information will help. I have an aiport extreme connected directly to my Cable Modem. I then setup the Time Capsule to extend the network updstairs. I have everything running on 802.11n. Wireless connection is great and I get about 13-14mb download speeds when I do a speedtest.
I must say though, copying data to the Timecapsue via wireless is slow...
I checked my apple TV this morning, and the first movie I clicked on worked great, so did the second one, then I tried a third and got the following error: "The Selected Video could not be played. The Format was not recognized"
Then I went back to play the original two that worked, and they now gave me the same error... it almost looks like it is looking connection to them, or synching or something..

Final Cut Pro Problem playing and exporting

I am having problem playing and exporting in final cut pro. I made an animation in maya and used batch render to render a folder of images then imported the folder to final cut pro but it doesn’t play properly in the video window or even when I exported to quicktime. Do u know why?
Please give me your response asap.
Thank you very much!

As the link that Russ posted describes, use quicktime player to open the image sequence and then do a save. Bringing in an image sequence directly into fcp will cause extreme performance problems in my experience.
Describe the setting (pixel dimensions, color space, etc) of the original files. One important question is whether there is an alpha channel associated with the files. You may want to change the codec when you do the save in quicktime player to something more fcp friendly like one of the flavors of prores.

I am having problems playing my videos from my iphone on my laptop

I have an iphone 5. I have not yet updated to ios 7. I am having problems playing my videos from my iphone on my laptop. the sound is jumpy and the playback is slow/jumpy. i have tried various players but none seem to be able to play back properly. Help!

Hello Bagpus113
Check out the article below to troubleshooting issues with the sound for music and for videos. One other thing you can try is to convert the songs to a different format

Front Row: problems playing WMV files

I’m running a Macbookpro OSX 10.5.7, and have been working to config Front Row to play the movies on my hard drive (not in iTunes). I’ve installed both flip4mac and Perian in order to play all file types. This works great for QuickTime and the web. Front Row, however, has a problem playing my wmv files (all others play fine). When a wmv file is selected in FR, it only plays for a few seconds, then stops and returns to the movie list. I researched the solution provided by VideoDrive, which works, but I prefer to organize my videos into subfolders by category, rather than all in an alpha list in iTunes.
If I play a wmv in it’s entirety in Quicktime, it will then play in Front Row. This tells me it’s some sort of cache issue? My attempt to test this theory has been inconclusive, prob due to my ignorance.
Troubleshooting to date has been:
Quitting FR from the Activity Monitor
Deleting user/library/preferences/com.apple.frontrow.plist
Uninstalling and reinstalling flip4mac
Installing Perian
Would prefer not to have to rip all of my video to mp4 (I use iSquint), but I’m out of ideas.
Apologies in advance if this is covered elsewhere.

Hi konzo
As for converters try SUPER, it's one of the best and can convert pretty much anything you throw at it to any format you wish, best of all its FREE:

Problem playing remote live stream from FMS

Hello all,
I'm having problems playing remote live streams from FMS (server-side) that I can play with any other player (client-side)
Example of server-side application which plays a remote live stream:
nc = new NetConnection();
nc.connect("rtmp://remoteserver/live");
stream = Stream.get("localStream");
stream.play("remoteStream.flv", -1, -1, true, nc);
This code works only sometimes.
Most of the times, FMS is able to connect to remote string and the localStream dispatches events:
   NetStream.Publish.Strart
   NetStream.Play.Reset
In this case, FMS is publishing the local stream but it is not playing the remoteStrem on it.
The rest of the times, localStream dispatches events:
   NetStream.Publish.Strart
   NetStream.Play.Reset
   NetStream.Play.Start
   NetStream.Data.Start
In this case FMS plays the remoteStream correctly.
Any hint to solve this issue?
Regards.

Thanks, I tried your code and it works when playing a remote live stream on another FMS.
But the remote live stream is not on a FMS but on a Wowza Server which re-streams an RTSP stream over RTMP.
With this code:
var nc;
var myStream;
application.onAppStart = function(){
     nc = new NetConnection();
     myStream = Stream.get("localstream");
     myStream.onStatus= function(info){
           trace(info.code);
     nc.onStatus = function(info){
           trace (info.code);
           if(info.code == "NetConnection.Connect.Success" ){
                myStream.play("remoteLive.sdp", -1, -1, true, nc);
     nc.connect("rtmp://remoteServer/live");
Every live stream player I tried was able to play the remote stream "remoteLive.sdp", but FMS play it only sometimes. This is the output log of the FMS application:
NetConnection.Connect.Success
NetStream.Publish.Start
NetStream.Play.Reset        <--------------------------------- Stuck there, stream won't play
Unloaded application instance wowza4/_definst_ <--- Reload app
NetConnection.Connect.Success
NetStream.Publish.Start
NetStream.Play.Reset        <--------------------------------- Stuck there, stream won't play
Unloaded application instance wowza4/_definst_ <--- Reload app
NetConnection.Connect.Success
NetStream.Publish.Start
NetStream.Play.Reset
NetStream.Play.Start       <--------------------------------- Stream is playing just fine
NetStream.Data.Start
Unloaded application instance wowza4/_definst_ <--- Reload app
NetConnection.Connect.Success
NetStream.Publish.Start
NetStream.Play.Reset       <--------------------------------- Stuck there, stream won't play
Any idea? Why FMS won't play it everytime?
Regards

Problem playing commercial Blu Ray disks

We seem to have a problem playing commercial Blu-Ray disks with the SCCM client installed, it seem that the Microsoft mirror driver breaks the Blu-Ray licensing and disk can not be played? any ideas?

Yes, I know this is an old post, but I’m trying to clean them up.
This is not something that can be answered here in the forums, you will need to contact CSS directly for support, they can work with you to solve this problem.

Problems playing audiobooks

I have a number of audiobooks that originally came on CD, I have ripped them to my PC as WAV files and then used Nero Wave editor to join all the tracks together into one single file. Finally I used iTunes to convert the file to ACC.
The file plays fine from iTunes, but I have a problem playing it on both of my iPods an iPod Mini 2ndG, 6Gb and an iPod Video 5thG, 80Gb.
When I attempt to play back the audiobooks, they start playing from the place that I left off last time, but within a few minutes the iPod skips to the next track and I lose my place in the audiobook.
The fault usually happens after I have had my iPod connected to my PC, or first thing in the morning when the iPod almost always needs to restart (blank screen with the apply logo in the middle).
My Windows XP machine is kept upto date with the latest updates and I am using the latest version on iTunes and the latest firmware on both iPods.
iPod Mini 2ndG, 6Gb & iPod Video 5thG, 80Gb Windows XP Pro

I made a test and purchased a new audiobook (it cost $25.99 so it was an expensive test, a gamble).
After it downloaded, and launching the Music App, there was a previously non-existant menu item for "audiobooks". And the new purchase played.
SO ... Now the question/problem is how to restore the previously purchased audiobooks?!
