Rental play back very slow

I am having major delay on on my apple TV, netflix works perfect and the speed on my wireless router is up to speed. Movie rental are taking over an hour to play. Any advise

The first thing to check would be your internet download speed, you can do this at www.speedtest.net.
HD movies require a recommended speed of 6 Mbps, while SD movies require a recommended speed of 2.5 Mbps.

TS2509 play back very slow

Im using motion 4 and it's playing very slow

There are many reasons (too many to list) why Motion will run slow since it is not and never has been about *playing* video. It is about creating effects and titles FOR video. I've created projects where Motion will only get < 1 frame per second on playback (that usually means I have to *simplify* the project considerably...) The only way you can guarantee a smooth up-to-speed playback is to Export your project to video and play the video in a player like Quicktime Player. However, IF you have the RAM for it, Motion 4 will render as much of the timeline it can fit in the available RAM it has to playback with RAM Preview (command - R), usually, at full speed for as much as it can render. Motion 5 does not do as good a job at that.
Lights are notorious for slowing Motion down, especially if you have shadows turned on (Spot and Point lights.) If you have reflections turned on; if you have emitters with high birth rates; if you have a lot of layers in 3D space; if Motion Blur is enabled; and the list goes on and on... You can temporarily turn off Lighting, Reflections, Shadows, and Depth of Field from the Render menu, which should help speed things up a little bit. You can turn off extra layers (isolate the view to a few specific objects at a time) to speed things up a little bit. But mostly, you're just going to have to get used to Motion slowing down as you progress through a project.

Hi. Quick question I am working with Panasonic GH3 footage and it is playing back in slow motion?

Hi. Quick question I am working with Panasonic GH3 footage shot using .MOV wrapper with their IPB 50mbps and All-Intra 72MBPS codecs and they are playing back in slow motion in Sg CC. The footage works fine in PP CC and I have no clue on how to fix it. Is this a bug or do I a have a setting wrong some place?

Yes it turns red this is silly PP and AE have no problem with playback for these codecs. So it is indeed Sg not handling the codec correctly and not my system?
What if I transcoded it to something else other than the previous what would you reccommend?
I was going to transcode to ProRes but 5DtoRGB does not work on Windows with GH3 codecs.
What is the correct time warp seting under clip properties? I screwed with it and forgot the default setting.
Is there a way to reset Sg back to defaults settings globaly. I tried to many settings trying to fix the playback and may have left something in the wrong state.
Thanks...

My ATV plays music very slow (AirPlay)

My Apple TV 2 plays music very slow. I streamed my music from my iPad to my Apple TV using AirPlay. My music was deeper and slower than normal and some beats were missing.
I need help 8-/

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Possibly network issues, but I'd begin by restarting all your equipment including the router and trying again.

Imported audo plays back too slow

I dragged and dropped a 48k wav file into GB and it played back slow. Is GB set to 44.1? Do I need to convert it 44.1k?

you have been SO HELPFUL ! thanks !! we need more people like you.
so you are saying i can render out an .flv file and just rename the extension to .swf ?? would this be a smaller file ? i cant seem to get the .swf file smaller than 56 megs out of after effects, the only way would be to make the actual size (600x336) smaller....but this would make the animation too small on the screen....and i like the size of it now. i will try the .flv thing tonight.
the firefox thing fixed itself. this morning when i tried it, it played the flash file. slowly and sluggishly, like safari, but it played it back. so maybe it had to update ? dont know....not sure. thanks again....and let me know about renaming the file...can i just change the extension ?
thanks a million!!

FCP plays back tooo slow

Hey Kids, I am running FCP 5.0 on a Mac Pro 2.8 8-core processor on Mac OSX 10.5.2 and it's too sluggish on play back. I have the 8800 NVIDIA card installed from Mac and this should REALLY be fast. My old Mac Power PC G5 1.6 single processor ran it better than this. My setting in FCP should be correct: In system settings I am running things in safe mode (not in RT) Video Quality is Low, Frame rate is Dynamic, so what's wrong? The audio plays back fine but the Canvas view is stuck on one frame until I press stop. Thanks a lot guys....

I know someone was recently looking for the 5.1.4 upgrade and Apple has taken it down from their site...all other searches were fruitless.
You could try finding 5.1.4 or Final Cut Studio 1 on Ebay, but I've never trusted software from Ebay.
Here's the link for upgrading on the apple site...$699

Satellite 1800 plays DVDs very slow

My Satellite S1800 is very slow, when trying to watch dvd movies, picture and voice stucks and when watching videos from youtube, its same thing.
I just formatted my hard drive and re-installed winxp and thought that would help , but no , its still same thing.
What is the problem? My toshibas specs: 1Ghz , 256 ram , 8mb trident cyberblade ai1, 20gb, i think those should roll some dvd movie?

First, I wanted to answer with a detailed reasons of this, but this forum did NOT allowed me to post my "polite and helpful" message due to spelling mistakes even there wasn't any. Then it allowed me to post without spelling checking. (did not understand, weird)
The answer of your problem is because of excessive cpu usage which i had on my similar S1800-100 while watching any MPEG-2 video or youtube video.
I don't know why the DVD drive was insertings into this notebook, maybe for data transfer or other viewing, the fact that your CPU is not strong enough to render DVD movies, it should be the reason.
Please check your CPU usage while watching videos.

Timeline playing back very choppy over multiformat video.

Hi Guys,
I am editing some behind the scenes footage for a movie our studio is making. A lot of the media has come from different sources. Some red, some mpeg4 etc. The Mac i am using is a Quad Core Mac Pro... technically it should be powerful enough to play over all these fine. But even when everything is rendered, it is very choppy. So much so, that to check my audio is in synch for some of the action shots, i have to export it as a Quicktime and play it back and check it that way.
Now i have tried RT in unlimited and safe... but it still happens. Does anyone have any possible solutions at all?
Any help would be much appreciated,
thanks in advance.

Please give your full system specifications, what computer, what drives, what camera or deck, how everything's connected, what settings are on the media, what settings you're using in Final Cut, and finally what version of the software, of the OS, and of QuickTime you are using.

Playing music VERY slow after 3.0 upgrade

I have a 32GB ipod touch bought in Feb 2008 (does that make it 2G?). If I listen to my songs in 'shuffle' mode, or with a large playlist, the ipod is extremely slow and unresponsive. After pressing the 'shuffle' button I have to wait about 10-15 seconds before a song starts playing. The touch controls also become very sluggish when playing songs. If I press the 'next' button there's often a 15 second delay before the screen updates and the artwork changes. During this time the controls on the ipod are also frozen which makes it impossible to skip through songs on shuffle mode.
Any idea what's happening or what I can do to fix this?
I'd rather lose half of the new features and just have my ipod play songs properly!

i am also having this problem. if i synch my first generation ipod touch and then try to play music, it says "Updating Library ... this may take a few minutes". then, if i try to play playlists with lots of songs (1000+) the controls are very sluggish, taking 5 - 15 seconds before allowing me to skip to the next song. but, it seems to "fix" itself after a minute or two. i wonder if it is indexing something in the background that it making it run slow? maybe related to the new spotlight feature? i have restored alredy. any advice?

Satellite Pro P100-465 Vista - video play back stutters, slows down

I'm at my wits end :-(
uninstalled drivers - re installed drivers - updated drivers (nvidia don't even list the 7600 Go graphics card for vista - used other site recommmened in this site) - changed screen resolution, changed screen bits depth, removed anti virus - plenty of system resources available yet on every single video file playback slows down and speeds up or stutters especially bad when i full screen.
Tried different video files and dvds, different codecs and players, vlc, media player classic, neros show time, WMP etc etc all are effected. Seems like others have had similar problems and thought maybe they had some more ideas to solve this one ??
Is there something i haven't tried ? please let me know... thanks for your help

I have found a thread about very similar issue.

Screen rotation during music play back -- very annoying!

I hate that the screen rotates when playing music. I have an arm band holster (Griffin), and when I lift my arm to use the touch screen for commands, it rotates into album shuffle mode. Very annoying!
I'm trying to do something with the device and it goes into some kind of album choosing mode -- when I'm already more than happy with the play list I've created!
Would be very nice to be able to cancel that feature.
Why only album shuffle too? Why not play list shuffle? That's how I listen.

It doesn't appear if you tap the screen/artwork while the audiobook is playing?

Why are the videos I take on my iPad mini playing back in slow motion?

I took a video of one of my tennis students on my iPad mini and when I went to view it, the video seemed like it was in slow motion or skipping frames. It definitely wasn't smooth and in normal time. The strange thing is that I shot the video again on my wife's iPad 2 and it did the same thing.

If you have a computer, you can import the photos to the computer and then delete them for the iPad. You don't even need iTunes to so this, because you aren't syncing, you are importing.

Wav files play at very slow speeds.

Real newbie stuff here, and I'm away from my manual...and wouldn't know where to look anyway.
So: I dragged a file I made with my Zoom H4 into Logic express, go to play it, and the voices sound like they are at 1/4 speed. How do I changes this?
Thanks

Is the file recorded at the same sample rate at your Logic project? (Usually 44,1 Khz)

CS3: Exported .mov file plays back very slowly and choppy

I'm exporting a 1020x574 stage to Quicktime, H.264 High
quality, no sound. The resulting video, no matter what size I make
it, always plays choppy at parts. It plays fine in Flash and as a
.swf, but the .mov lags badly.
Any ideas what's going on?

Yes, that's the exact same problem I'm having. And I see the
same thing, where areas with more objects tweening and effects and
such have the lag. The thing is, when I play the .swf in the Flash
Player it runs without *any* lag, so it doesn't make sense to me
why lag is picked up when it records it for QT.
I have noticed that if I shrink my entire stage and export at
a smaller size, it runs without lag. That is not an option,
however, I need the larger size.
Well, that's disappointing. Next step is to try and find a
good screen video recorder and manually record the playback.
