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'.
iDelete QT and Flash Caches 1.2

If they are videos in your Mac, what format are they?

After exporting to quicktime file, the file has sound but no video, what am I doing wrong?

after exporting to quicktime file, the file has sound but no video, what am I doing wrong? The self contained movie box is not checked.

Hi
Did You go via Compressor ?
Did You use QuickTime Conversion ?
I don't
I do
• In TimeLine set In and Out-Points to the full Movie/Project
• Select ALL - Clips and Audio
• Go up to Sequence and down to Render Only - down to Mix Down Audio
• then Sequense and Render Selected - Both (Video and Audio)
• then Export and as QuickTime .mov (NOTHING ELSE)
• I use to do - Not Self-Contained as it saves both time and space
Your Start-Up (Mac OS) Hard Disk - Needs lot's of free space to work OK - I never go under 25Gb free space on this one,

Sound, but no video when streaming a quicktime file through shockwave

When I stream a quicktime movie in the html file hosted on localhost using the Apache server, I get sound but no video. I saved the quicktime movie as part of my cast, linked to http://localhost/~username/mymovie.mov
When I play the quicktime movie itself in my browser, or in a projector, or just within director, the video and sound play simultaneously. But in the browser after converting the dir movie to a dcr and html file, and hosting the dcr and html files on the server, when I open the html file in my browser, only the sound plays. Anyone else encounter similar problems? Any help would be appreciated!

Hi guys,
here's some quick notes on how I handle shockwave videos with my projects.
I tend to find that .swf format videos work best under all browsers using shockwave
easiest way:
you can do a standard import of a .swf video straight into a your cast. (not linked)
the problem with this is it tends to create a large dcr file for you users to download
'preloadnetthing' way:
upload your videos to a url location - something like www.mywebsite.com/the_programs_title/dsmedia/videos/video1.swf
(I never use capital letters or spaces)
file - import - internet - <enter the full url pathname to the file>
this will add the file to the add list
set media to : Link to External File (Don't use Standard Import)
now press Import
at this point Director will try to connect to your url - and do a trial download of the linked file
if it works you should now see a new linked video cast member added to your cast
if it fails - (which mine tend to do half the time?) - try it again until it works.
Here I normally view the linked videos property inspector - and change its settings - I turn loop off - and make sure preload is not set.
now comes the code part
To get your videos to play correctly, you will need to preload them into memory, before you play them.
(although it's possible to stream videos - I've never been able to get this to work well - there is a whole bunch of lingo code to deal with streaming videos)
*** a frame script for preloading a swf video ***
on beginSprite
floatPrecision = 2
tellStreamStatus(TRUE)
global gVideosName
set TEMP to "http://www.mywebsite.com/my_program/dswmedia/videos/" & gVideosName & ".swf"
global mynetID
set mynetID = preloadNetThing(TEMP)
set the text of cast "preload_results" to "0 %"
end beginSprite
on exitFrame
floatPrecision = 2
global mynetID
pStatList = getStreamStatus(mynetID)

    pPercentDone = (pStatList.bytesSoFar * 100) / pStatList.bytesTotal

Sound but no video in quicktime 7.2

When I'm on the web trying to view something in Quicktime, I get sound but no video. It was working fine and one day it stopped working. I did download a few plug-ins that may or may not have coincided with this problem. The plug-ins are: mp4vEncoder and Perian.

Did you repair permissions & restart after installing those 2 apps? If so, then try Flip4Mac and/or VLC Media Player.
Otherwise, please post the link/URL of the site(s) you are trying to use.
Thank you

Got sound but no video

Hi
I imported some footage from my HD Sony Camera with IMovie on my Macbook pro. Then finding the Movie files, copying them to a folder and then burned them to a DVD disk. I wanted to watch the movie files on my PC. I installed the latest Quicktime for Windows XP Pro it opens the file, has sound but no Video.
If I insert the DVD back in my Macbook Pro I can see the Movie files and they play just fine.
Can anyone help with this?
Thanks

You'll need to "export" your iMovie Projects to QuickTime formats for use with a PC.

HT204291 Using Azul media player app on my ipad Apple tv will only display sound but not video from movies. Any ideas on a fix. I set mirroring to on but it still does not display video. It will display photos and video recorded from my iphone.

Using Azul media player app on my ipad Apple tv will only display sound but not video from movies. Any ideas on a fix. I set mirroring to on but it still does not display video. It will display photos and video recorded from my iphone.

Here are the steps for AirPlay:
Before starting Azul from your (running iOS 5.x/6.x) home screen where have have all your apps we need to turn on mirroring
On your iPhone 4S/5 or iPad 2 or 3, double-click the Home Button to view your recently-used apps.
Swipe all the way to the right to until you see the icon.
Note: If the icon does not appear, go to the "If AirPlay Mirroring is not visible or available on your mobile iOS device" section.
Tap the icon to see the list of available AirPlay devices.
Enable AirPlay Mirroring in this menu by tapping on an available Apple TV, then sliding the Mirroring slider to ON.
Now you should be seeing your iPad/iPhone on your TV.
Start up Azul now and using the settings icon on the top right corner go to the option that say "TV out" ON.
When you do that you will see an Orange screen
Now click "Done" and play the video you want to watch and it will AirPlay

MPEG2 Sound but NO Video on playback

I have QT Pro w/the MPEG2 Plug in (both current version) running on OSX 10.4.11 and when I try to open/play a file I get sound but no video. The file works fine with VLP and if I use Handbrake to encode the file in MPEG4 it will play. Why doesn't the MPEG2 file play? That's why I bought the plug in... Is there some other magic that needs to be done?

I looked at the encoding and it was MPEG so now at least I understand the QT not playing part. Yes the original file was from TIVO downloaded via TiveDecode Manager. I was hoping not to have to do any more encoding to get it to play in QT (want to use a Mac Mini as a Media Center). Using Handbrake I can encode to MPEG4 which does play just fine, it just can take hours to encode. If anyone knows of a better way please let me know. I know on solution is to use VLP as the player but it's not supported in Front Row (from what I can see). Thanks for the help Matti..

HT204291 I can hear sound, but no video

I just hooked up my Apple TV - I have an iPhone 4 and I'm trying to do mirroring and I can hear sound, but no video. Any suggestions?

It Depends on the app you are trying to airplay. Most apps do not allow content to airplay with video and will disable the video so all you will hear is the audio. If the app you are using does not have a built in airplay function and you have to use the iphone to make it work than most likley that is the case as I described above.
It has to do with copyright protection and what the app is allowing apple to do.

I just got my replacement ipad last night. when i got home and tried the applications, there is no sound. but the videos do have sounds.

i just got my replacement ipad last night. when i got home and tried the applications, there is no sound. but the videos do have sounds. i already checked the settings. i cannot find what's causing it. please help.

You may have already checked the settings, but it still sounds like you have system sounds muted.
If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

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
