Slow music playback on X2

music playback becoming slower after few minutes of listening.
-1300 of 2000 MB free on SD card
-25 of 48 MB free in internal phone memory
have latest firmware, tried power on and off, and also master reset but still same issue.
Just to note that it isn't very noticeable latency but it is still there and for fine hear this can be little annoying.
Anyone have same exp with this problem and any possible solution for this?
Thanks in advance

sirweste,
256MB of RAM seems a little low for Windows XP and that processor, but I'm still not sure how simple typing would be causing that much of a difference. Have you tried clean installing your soundcard into an alternati've PCI slot just in case some type of resource conflict is occurring?

Music Playback Super SLOW with no audio ouput HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am seriously frustrated with this Ipod Nano 2nd Gen... I received it for Christmas and had no problems with it at first. But yesterday the battery indicated it was time to charge. At the same time, music playback became very very slow, and no audio output thru the headphones. I cahrged it completely, reinstalled the newest verson on itunes and software version for the ipod... I even restored the thing (wiping out ALL of my music, much to my dismay) and stil there is no change. Playback is about 1/10th of what it should be- very slow and still no audio output. The interesting thing is that playback is fine when I play the ipod files through itunes- but when disconnected the ipod just *****!!!! I am getting very frustrated and want to throw this thing out of the window! Please help!!!

Try troubleshooting using the steps found here. If the troubleshooting doesn't help call Apple. You have one free phone support that's good for 90 days from the date of purchase. The warranty for the iPod is good for one year.

Problem with iTunes Music Playback

Hi, I like using itunes but im having a problem with the music playback. If i have just itunes running and some background programs i.e. anti-virus playback of music is fine but I want to be able to surf the web, and play my games while listening to music. However when i try to so this the sound becomes muffled, choppy and can skip and slow down all in all its impossible to listen to. I thought this may be a problem with my PC but its not a slow one. I tried Windows Media Player and while browsing the net, playing my games etc playback was perfect. Also ive done everything on this page> http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93610 but still had no luck. Now i will use media play if i have to much i much prefer itunes ans it has all my libary sorted out. Any help would be brilliant.
Thanks
Mark

Even though you LOVE iTunes, there are many other programs out there that don't require extra software to be installed for it to function....there by freeing up your CPU to run more programs.
I would seriously look into trying something different that doesn't need to hog so much system resources....until they reduce their program's needs.
Try something like Winamp or Musicmatch Jukebox.
You can have your library to show up pretty much the same way that they do in iTunes. You'll just have to read through the user guides to get it exactly the way you want it.

N70-ME, scree flicker during music playback

Hi,
I noticed that the screen flickers (with some white banding lasting few milliseconds, every few seconds) during music playback (128kbps AAC). Is it because the processor is too slow, or is there a known software glitch ?
thanks,
bd

Is this happening in iTunes or on the iPod?
If iTunes, can you open the same song in QuickTime and does it pop and click also?
I don't know the apple contact stuff, it's posted around here somewhere though.

Slow laggy playback on Premiere

Hey like many others I am having issues with slow video playback on Premiere cs 5.5
This is the laptop I recently purchased specifically so I could run this software. I am disappointed to say the least:
http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B0062JM4L6/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00
Intel® Core™ i7-2670QM Processor
Genuine Windows® 7 Home Premium 64bit
NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 560M discrete graphics (GDR5 1.5GB VRAM)
Accelerated performance with MSI TDE Technology
HDD: 1TB (500 GB*2 RAID 0) 7200 RPM
RAM: DDRIII 12GB (4GB*3)
When playing back video, the CPU is used at a max of 20% and the GPU is something similarily low. I purchased this laptop
a month ago and have only installed media related software like photoshop, premiere etc.
After Effects works beautifully for me, while Premiere does not.
I use Canon 5D HD video at 1080p video at 30fps
I realize this issue has been posted numerous times, but I am not sure how the issues apply specifically to my laptop,
so I was wondering if anyone could help me out? Should I just get an earlier version of premiere?

Even in raid, only one "effective" hard drive is not going to work very well... here is why...
Trying to use only ONE Hard Drive for Video Editing
You are a music conductor, with a baton that you use to point to various parts of the orchestra... this is like Windows pointing to various parts of the hard drive to do Windows housekeeping or to load program segments for various functions
Now, at the same time and with the same hand... while still using the baton to conduct the orchestra... pick up a bow and play a fiddle... this would be doing something with your video file at the same time as all the other work
You as a person cannot do both at the same time with the same hand
A computer is a LITTLE better, in that it can switch from one kind of task to another very quickly... but not quickly enough for EASY video editing
You need AT LEAST two hard drives (separate drives, never a partition http://forums.adobe.com/thread/650708 for more) with Windows (or Mac OS) and software on your boot drive, and video files on a 2nd drive so the boot drive is not slowed down by trying to do everything
Partition = Crash http://forums.adobe.com/thread/957286
I find that the three drives I use work very well for me, for editing AVCHD video... some people use a 4th drive, so video INPUT files are on drive three and all OUTPUT files are on drive four... I only bought a mid-tower case instead of a full tower case (my bad... but had to fit in the space available on my office desk!) so I use the three drives that will fit
Depending on your exact hardware (motherboard brand & model AND USB2 enclosure brand & model AND external hard drive brand & model) AND the type of video file, you may... or may NOT... be able to use an external USB2 hard drive for SD (Standard Definition) video editing
Steve Grisetti in the Premiere Elements forum http://forums.adobe.com/thread/856208 and Jim Simon in the Premiere Pro forum http://forums.adobe.com/thread/856433 use USB externals for editing
A USB3 hard drive connected to a motherboard with USB3 is supposed to be fast enough for video editing (I don't have such, so don't know) but eSata DOES have a fast enough data transfer for video editing... I have not used the eSata Dock below... for reference only, YMMV and all the usual disclaimers

Front Row/music playback issue

Hi all,
I have a rather large music library in iTunes and I have my Mac Mini attached to my stereo and TV. I use Front Row for music playback. Recently, I have been having trouble as the music will "stall" randomly or "freeze" for a couple seconds, then resume playing. Very annoying.
I've noticed that this problem does not seem to happen if I select the music from iTunes without Front Row running or if I use FR to select the music, then back out of FR with the little remote.
Anyway, I prefer to keep FR running. I've seen LOTS of articles and posts regarding video freezing with FR, but not music. Anyone know what's wrong?
Thanks!

I have the same problem on my macmini. :/
And I too like to leave Front Row playing songs while I do other thing in my house.
It hangs in almost every song now, it never did that before. I wonder if it's this iTunes update...
Is there someone else with the same problem, or someone that could help us solve that?

[Solved]Slow Music

I could not find a topic on this before, so I will go ahead and post:
My music, using any music player (I tried Amarok, Banshee, mplayer, vlc, gmm) is slower than what it is supposed to be. It is only a little slower, and barely noticeable, but I notice, and it bugs me.
I play my song, then I play it on youtube, and the youtube version is sped up. My mp3 player has the same result, slow on computer, normal on mp3 player.
It is the same using a Xine and Gstreamer backend. I'm not sure what to do or if anything can be done. I will post more info as needed.
Thank you.
****EDIT****
So as it turns out, using mpd and Sonata solves my problem of slow music...perhaps it was a buffering issue, but I'm glad its over with.

I do not think that it is an ALSA issue, since I had the same issue with OSS

CK-200 poor music playback quality

Hi, I've just installed the car kit CK-200 (ISO cable version) into my car and I'm very disappointed by the music playback quality.
I have Nokia C7 with the latest firmware (14.002) and I have also updated the car kit firmware into 3.0.
There's no problem with the phone call quality - I would say it is comparable to the other car kits (for example to CK-7W I've had before), but if I want to use it for playing music, it still plays it in "phone call-like" quality. I have tried different players, but no success - still the same low quality.
If I turn the FM transmitter on and tune up the car radio to the transmitters' frequency, I get much better quality then via this car kit (although sometimes it's noisy from other broadcasting radios).
In the product description of this CK-200 they highlight very good sound quality thanks to some DSP technology - I hope there's more than this.
Do you have any idea what might be the problem here?

Hi
The CK-200 is a mono output car kit that is only designed for calls, not music.
If a handset is playing music via the mono Bluetooth channel, this is a fluke, and not part of the design of the handset.
The CK-100, 300, 600 are all stereo car kits with music capability.
The DSP settings on the CK-200 manage the voice vs background noise in the car so the driver can be heard more clearly by the other caller.

Keynote Sync problems with music Playback

Dear Keynote Experts,
after long trying I can´t fix this problem.
I want to synchronize Pictures with 4s duration. This shall run in sync with a music playback which is 120 bpm. So it would be in Sync with the progression of the beats. At least the pictures don´t run smooth in my case during the presentation. I checkes the timing with a watch the and it seems as if the single pictures move in unequal durations. Weird?
I tried an Update of Quicktime and tested the whole thing with a new Keynote document only programmed for this syncing purpose. No success...
Maybe help lies in the intelligent animation tool or something like this which would help, otherwise it should be no great deal, to have the Pages properly changed each 4s.
Thanks for your help in advance.
All the best
Tim

Hi Kelly,
after a while...
yeah I do it like this. I record the whole thing with screenflow, as Kenote does a good resolution full screen.
I would like to export certain sections of my full grouped objects Image. I can refit it on a smaller paper size record this cutout full screen with Screenflow in high resolution, so far so good - but:
The problem is, when I use smaller paper sizes, the whole Object gets automatically scaled and the relations of the grouped Object are lost. Is ist possible to keep the absolute values of the objects (1cm stays 1 cm) when I switch to different sizes of the paper.
Thanks for your answer...
Best wishes
Merry Christmas

Why is the sound browser so slow during playback?

Why is the sound browser so slow during playback? This problem seems to have no solution. This problem even occurs on my Mac Pro With 8 Cores... This problem is in its 3rd Generation since version 8... Even AU Plugins with built-in sound browsers trigger sounds in real time. Whats up Apple? I would love to find a solution after 5 yrs of using this program... U-Jean

This Problem has been occurring before 2011 according to the link below....... *** Apple!!!

Does the Iphone 3G support music playback via a bluetooth headset?

Hi All,
Does the Iphine 3g support music playback via a bluetooth headset at all, I suspect not...

It's been on many a user's requested feature list since the first iPhone, and people were disappointed when it didn't show up on the 3G. The adaptor he links to will get the job done.
I have to admit I've demoed a couple of bluetooth stereo headsets, and the music sounded awful. Perhaps it's improved, but for this reason it's not a feature I've personally wished was included.

ICal alarm turns on music playback

I have an iPod Touch with the iPhone headphones that I leave plugged in when I put the iPod on my desk for the day. Since I sync my iCal calendar to the iPod for reference, it brings up reminder alarms on the iPod from time to time during the day. I'd like to be able to turn off the iPod calendar alarms, but I don't mind them so much.
What I do mind is that when the calendar alarm fires, music playback pops on. Once I notice a loud song playing through the headphones laying on my desk I need to turn the thing on to turn the music off.

Presuming that is not active?
Another way - allow the music to play for a bit
Then unlock the phone and use app switcher - double tap of home button - to see what all is running - while mail or weather apps may not be able to play music - I am sure you will find something in there that was

IPod freezes randomly for a few secs during music playback

Hi,
My 'iPod Classic 160' is playing up of late.
It started a few months ago. During music playback, it would freeze for a 'fraction' of a second randomly but as time has gone on, it freezes for up to 5 secs now. I've used iTunes to 'restore' my iPod and have the latest firmware updates, but still the same problem. I use MP4 for music.

Bluetooth Buzz during music playback - iPhone 6

I am using an iPhone 6 - paired to a pioneer FH-X720BT car stereo. About 5 minutes after bluetooth music playback starts I get a very loud buzz for about 5 seconds. A moment after this all sound stops for a second. Then music resumes. This does not repeat until the stereo is turned off and then on again. Anyone have a suggestion on how to fix it. Is it a Pioneer stereo problem or is it an iPhone 6 problem? I have not had the same problem with an older iPhone 4s.

Same issue here with iPhone 6 iOS 8.1.3 and now with iOS 8.2. New Pioneer DEH6700BS. Took back to shop and had new deck replaced - SAME ISSUE. Mine is around 7:30 minute and same drop out right after that as you are seeing. I have tested with iPod Touch and my son's iPhone 5C and I don't get this issue despite multiple testing scenarios. Looks like the common denominator is the iPhone 6.
