Slow camera, Distorted Sound

Hi, so recently i think my flash stoped working properly, BUT only when i use it on some website where i use my webcam, like stickam.com, blogtv.com; and even Youtube when you record directly from the website, and i don't know why.
The when i see me on cam it looks good but people tells me it's really really slow like Slow motion.
Also the sound is distorded and i sound like a demon or something.
I recorded it to show you how it sounds. (wait a few seconds till i starts talking.)

Also i tried on photobooth it works great so its not an Hardware problem.
I tried uninstalling flash, reinstalled, Reset Safari, deleted Macromedia folder, i tried other browsers, i also tried other networks but still the same problem, and i have fast network so it doesnt come from there. so i really think it comes from the flash.
Any idea how i can fix that ?
Thanks

Hi,
Try maintenance.
From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Empty Cache. When you are done with that...
From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 5 buttons and click Reset.
Go here for trouble shooting 3rd party plugins or input managers which might be causing the problem.

If you are running Safari in 64 bit mode, try running in 32-bit mode instead. Right or control click the Safari icon in the Applications folder, then click: Get Info In the Get Info window click the black disclosure triangle next to General so it faces down. Select 32 bit mode. Also, (in that same window) make sure Safari is NOT running in Rosetta.
~/Library/Cookies and move the Cookies.plist file to the Trash. Relaunch Safari.
If none of the above has helped, download and install the 10.6.2 combo update available here.

Intermittent Static Hiss w/ Slow-mo Distorted sounds (SB Audigy

Hello all!? Having a bit of an issue with an old SB Audigy 4 [C000] of mine. Bought it about two years ago, took it from the old desktop and put it into the new one. Had no issues with it until yesterday.
It seems that it's liking to suddenly emit a static hissing noise at random intervals, and when this hissing is going on, any audio coming from the computer is slowed down. I've never had this issue before, and I'm wondering if someone on here has had similar issues. These symptoms eventually end, but it's quite annoying because I have to wait for it to stop until it decides to go away. It also seems that it is somewhat affected by whatever I'm doing at the moment - minimizing windows or hovering the mouse over something that displays a text box sometimes makes it stop for a short second, before it picks up again.
Thank you in advance.

...except that I'm using Windows XP 32-bit with SP2.
The only thing I can think of that would be causing this is that the WiFi USB adapter I installed yesterday was causing some sort of IRQ conflict or frequency disturbance. I've since plugged it into a different set of USB ports than where it originally was - maybe that'll fix it (I hope).

NB520-108: Distorted sound on full screen video

Hi there,
I have a harman / kardon nb520-108 (I hope i have the right forum!) and when I maximise the screen on say youtube or iplayer I get a distorted sound.
I have read somewhere that the bios needs an update but i'd need confirmation of that if it is as the secondary effect is that it means an install of the sound system.
Any ideas what this could be?
thanks in advance,
alex

The Toshiba software that came pre-installed should warn you if you have all your drivers up-to-date. In any case, you should always update them. Also make sure Windows Updates hasn't installed a different sound driver for you, if it did, just uninstall that one and install the one provided by Toshiba.
If that doesn't solve it, tell me what browser you are using and what version of Flash you have currently installed. Update both.

Distorted sound on M30-604

Hi,
I have got a problem with the sound on my Satellite M30-604. If for instant I play a cd or an mp3 (doesnt matter with what program), the sound is distorted. It sounds a bit like back in the old days when my taperecorder got jammed. After a while the sound disappears completely and I get bad sound driver errors. When I restart the notebook, the sound again works fine for a while, but then the problem repeats itself. This temporary regeneration only happens when I restart and does happen when I put the notebook in sleeping mode or standby mode for a while. The sounddriver in my notebook is the SigmaTel C-Major Audio version 6.14.1.3835, it should be the latest version. Can anybody help me with this problem? At the moment I am not even shure whether it is a hardware or a software problem. Thanks,
Steve

Hi Steve
I hope that there is some solution that will help you. Did you already try to make BIOS update? It will be interesting to know what you mean exactly under distorted sound. A friend of mine had a similar problem and the cause for that was modem. Sounds stupid but everything is possible.
Like I said if the sound is slowed it can be some hardware mailfunction.

IPod Classic 6th Gen - Distorted sound :-(

Hey folks, my friends iPod Classic 80gb 6th Generation iPod has a crappy distorted sound when tunes are played from it.
He sent it away to get fixed thinking it would be the headphone jack that was the problem - they got back to him and said that it was the Logic board at fault, and charged over £79.99 +VAT for this repair.
When it came back, all seemed to work okay, except a very short battery life.
A week later, the iPod froze with no backlight (the menu was still visible but not reacting to any button presses)
Nothing happened when the charger was plugged in, so we held the Menu Button + the Select button, and it rebooted successfully however the orginal problem came back of distorted sound....:-(
Very unhappy as £79.99 was a lot to pay for it be broken again so soon.
Can anyone shed any light onto why this may of happened?
Was he right by saying it was the logic board at fault?
Cheers
James

I haD the same issue, and was thoroughly ticked off until doing some research and then trying couple things.
I was able to change the volume limit, that WAS set at half. I adjusted it to max volume, set a lock passcode, and away I drove.
Then, upon hitting "play", I began to get a little ticked off. I realized after a few minutes, I couldn't hear anything playing.
It was so quiet- and I-95 is noisy, with me regretting buying another Apple product, after is wrote not to.
So- after reading through a couple of these threads, I just adjusted the volume limit, and VOILA!
It reverted to 50%.
So, I did a total wipe, factory-reset it as new iPod. I checked setting=>volume limit and it was at the 50% point again. First thing that I did was go to the last selection under settings menu, "reset settings" and noted it doesn't delete sync days, solely sys settings.
I adjusted the volume limit to 100% immediately afterwards, set a new passcode and then.....
Hit play.
It worked. Plays just as loud as my original 3rd Gen iTouch.
So Dylan1219, maybe try that? It's so simple, I am shocked that's how I fixed it. It had been set- and always snapped back to the 50% mark.
So, MAYBE that could solve the problem..? I have hearing loss from rock & roll and concerts, etc...so, thankfully this isn't a bunk product. Just had a bunk setting.
It has stayed at Max level for hours now, and can state it solved it for me.
I would hypothesize, all iPod classics are made the same, except for the "options" of storage and color. Maybe a small "governor" or a piece of extra firmware is added after the fact, or only "every 9th iPod" who knows for sure...?

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.

IDVD Distorted Sound

Have created a 50 minute video with background music and it previews great in iMovie, click on create a DVD project and it previews with badly distorted sound in iDVD ??? Any ideas why ?
Have a PowerBook G4 with DVD drive.
Previously I made a Magic Movie direct from camera with same original tape and it worked OK, now I having edited it in iMovie I have this problem.
Also, an error message appears "Your project exceeds the maximum allowed content duration. You will not be able to burn your DVD while your Encoder Setting is Best Performance. This can be changed in your iDVD Preferences."
How can this be when video is just 50 minutes long and DVD+RW is 120min?

Hi Peter
Can there be sound outside/extending the movie track ?
Does Your super-drive support DVD+ ?? my only DVD- !
Try making a disc image and see if this runs OK.
or
Probably You have used the function - Share to iDVD - from within
iMovie. Try another way.
a) Close iMovie
b) find the project icon/folder
c) Ctrl-click on it and Show package.
d) in this there are a folder -> Shared Movies -> iDVD
e) in this there are a QT movie nnnnnnn.mov
f) drop this into an open theme in iDVD and save it as a desktop image
(if iDVD prior HD/5 You have to add a hack to make this possibly
named HPfurz and install it)
Test this with Apple DVD-player - OK then burn it with iDVD
or Toast if You have and dont want to re-code the movie.
Yours Bengt W

Distorted sound coming from 5S

All of a sudden, during some text messaging, the normal sound came out garbled,like a blown speaker. I checked music from Pandora, same distorted sound.

Also, I have tried restarting my computer, messing with the audio settings, and various other settings that I thought might help.

ISight Makes a SLOWER "Turn On" Sound Then "Used by Another App Message"

I've had my iSight cam for about 4 years. When I plugged it in a couple of days ago, that quick sound it makes when it's connected (focusing sound?) was much slower. I then received the message that it is in use by another app.
I do regular maintenance (permissions, clean caches, check pref files). I've tried another user account. I've unplugged everything and shut the computer off for at least 15 minutes. I've tried another firewire port. I'm going to reinstall the 10.4.10 combo PPC update.
Has anyone else encountered the slow "turn on" sound to find that their iSight no longer works?
Im afraid I'm going to have to send it away, pay $150, and get it repair. I guess that's better than paying $350 for a new one.
Thanks.

Hello PDXKevin
Has anyone else encountered the slow "turn on" sound to find that their iSight no longer works?
Not I.
I know you did not ask, but you may want to consider any of the following that you have not already tried before you have your iSight serviced.
If you have changed anything recently, have you considered Possible hardware or software conflicts.
I see you have previously posted about problems with your Firewire. Does your iSight show as a Firewire device in your System Profiler? Do other Firewire devices work when connected to the same port on your PowerBook?
If your iSight works when connected to a different Mac but you do not see iSight in System Profiler when your iSight is connected to your PowerBook, you may have connection, cable, Firewire, or other problems with your Mac. In this case, try Apple's suggestions in What to do if your computer won't recognize a FireWire device.

How can I turn off the camera shutter sound on an iPhone 6 bought in the U.S.?

I know some countries don't allow the camera shutter sound to be disabled, but I'm not sure if the U.S. is one of those countries. Is it? If not, can someone tell me how to disable it please?

Use the mute switch on the side of the phone above the volume buttons.

Qosmio G20-139 slow video playback sound ok

Hi,
I no longer seem to be able to play video files, play DVDs, or watch TV as the playback is in slow motion but sound is ok except on the TV.
Have tried to uninstall Graphics driver but it won't let me saying something to the effect of unable to uninstall as required to boot.
Also looking into uninstalling /reinstalling Video driver but can't find what it is. Is it the same as the Graphics driver (NVIDIA Go Geforce 6600)?
This all started (i think) when i tried to use a netgear router insatllation CD but stopped it half way even though it said not to... Then whole system went incredibly slow and crashed a lot for a while (even Word, Excel and Powerpoint) but think some updates have sorted that out.. but it still doesn't seem to be able to handle too much going on at once like before... plus some site heavily using javascript have also gone ridiculously slow.
Besides using product restore CD as not to hand as moved to diff country... Any suggestions please????
OS: Window XP MCE
Regards,
Angela

Hi

The display driver and the graphic driver is the same ;) some people call it display driver and some people say graphic driver
Im not quite sure why you are not able to watch movie files properly but possibly you would need some kind of codex.
The codec can be downloaded from different pages and many packages contains different codex.
Personally Im using N K-Lite Mega Codec Pack because it contains most necessary codecs.
I think its worth a try to install it!
Furthermore I recommend cleaning the OS using the CCLeaner its free tool and I had a good experience with it

Distorted sounds in Windows 7 32 bit

Hi...
I re-installed my system with (Dutch) Windows 7 32 bit and used the "Vista" driver CD for my SB X-fi Music card.
When I play MP3 or WAV files, the quality is reasonable, however, some sounds, specially vocals, are damped by the bass-tones.
When I play a CD in my Plextor 80SA dvd drive, I get a very distorted sound.
Doesn't matter if it is a burned CD or a original CD from the music store.
I think that the output from my DVD dri've is to high, but I don't know where I can change the output level.
Also tried the latest updated drivers for the X-fi card, but that has no change in the sounds, cd's are still distorted and basstones in MP3 and WAV damp the vocals and other instruments.
Don't know what to do...please, someone with advise?
Grtz.

Using earphones, the same thing happens, the bass tones dampen other sounds.
I tested the speakers with the Creative Diagnostics application and there seems to be nothing wrong with them, even when I pump up the volume to 80 or 90% of the max volume there is no distortion at all in the speaker system.
I have ripped a CD and played the saved MP3 or WAV?files, they do the same as downloaded MP3 WAV files, bass tones dampen the other sounds. Sometimes the first two or three songs played, are all fine but then it slowly starts to happen... In other occasions, it happens immedaitely.
I have two identical dvd drives in my system (running on Windows 7 Ultimate) and used the second (hardly used) spare drive, also a Plextor 80SA, to play a legal bought CD and this one gives distorted sounds too! Volume doen't matter, by the way, distortion is also present on low volumes.
I must add to this that, when I was running Windows XP Professional with SP3 on my system, none of the above happened... It all started after re-installing my system with Windows 7 Ultimate.
Grtz.

Distorted sound on iMac with Windows 7

Hi,
I've just upgraded from Windows Vista Ultimate to Windows 7 Home Premium.
Before the sound worked perfect, but now it is very distorted.
When I mute windows I can still hear sound - it is just a bit more distorted and at a bit lower volume.
I tried to upgrade the sound card driver from Realtek, but lost sound completely. I reinstalled the Apple driver and now I have distorted sound again.
I'm running Boot Camp 3.1 drivers.
Does any one know how to solve this problem?
/Tejs

Can you find out which drivers you currently have for me please.
go to Start >> right click Computer >> System Properties >> System >> Device Manager
Now open up the sound, video and game controllers section and there should be something correlating to your sound driver here, if you could give me the name or the driver name if possible.
also what iMac model are you running.

Thanks
