Slow video playback after reinstalling Geforce2 MX card

Ok, reinstalled (took out the 9200 card) my Geforce2Mx card and now everything is in super slow motion - video, scrolling, typing, opening and closing of apps, pull down menus, loading of web pages - everything. It's like being back on an old SE30 and now even that seems fast to what is happening now. What did I do wrong? Tried rebooting a few times and resetting pram with no better results.

Press the button near the battery on your logic board, it will reset the PMU, which might help.

Tried that also with no results. Also repaired permissions. What could have happened to the machine to do that?
G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Installed the modified Radeon ATI 9600 Pro for G5 Edition card and I still have the same slow video playback results. However when I boot up from another internal hard drive I do not have the video problems. Everything works just fine. Both of my hard drives had no video problems before screwing around with the ATI cards and now the one still has the problems with the video playback. This one also has Classic on it and Classic also runs slow. BTW I don't know if this has anything to do with it but when I ran a search result for "ATI" no files are installed on that 2nd hard drive which is playing video and loading pages with no problems. Would trashing all those ATI files on the slow drive do anything to help? Or is this just a coincidence?

Slow video playback after upgrading to ati 9200 card

Just upgraded my graphics card to the PCI ATI 9200 but now I have slower video playback than I had with the OEM Geforce AGP card. Does anyone know why this has happened? I thought I was gonna get better playback by upgrading

Hi,
Well, you have me scratching my head, that's a real puzzle.
Try an Open Firmware re-set, do the 're-set all' procedure:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=42642
BTW, ATI (and OWC) has just released this info on their 9600 video card, meaning it's not so good for G4's:
Knowledge Base
ATI Customer Care > Product Information > Specifications, Features, Comparisons >

Program Monitor is Black, no video playback after installing new graphics card

I bought a PNY Nvidia Quadro 2000 graphics card a few days ago, and since it's been installed, I've been unable to watch video playback in my program, source or even reference monitor.
Similarly, If I designate one of my monitors soley for video playback, the screen is just black, and as the timecode advances on my timeline I only hear sound.
My project is using "Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration" for Premiere Pro CS6.0.1
I went from using one graphics card to using two graphics cards, and installed a third monitor. I've spent the last few days trying everything I could think of, I even uninstalled and re-installed premiere.
Hardware Specs:
Windows 7 Ultimate (64-bit)
HP Pavilion h8-1230z
AMD-FX8150 3.59Ghz 8 core processesor
16GB RAM
600W PS
EVGA Nvidia GeForce GTX 550Ti
PNY Nvidia Quadro 2000
I am using a PCI x16 for the Quadro 2000
I am using a PCI x1 slot w/x1-x16 adapter for the 550Ti
Could this be the problem?
Additional Information
Vectorscope, All scopes, YC Waveform - Display modes all work.
I downloaded the most recent Nvidia drivers for both of my cards.
I haven't received any error messages or had any problems in After Effects CS6, as video playback is working properly in my other adobe applications.

I am still building a new system, so currently I'm still using a 480. You can read all about my choices and progress here: Adobe Forums: Planning / building a new system. Part 1
There are 11 entries in the Benchmark Results that succesfully use the GTX 680, even though it is not 'supported'. They all use the 'hack'. However, the 680 has been added to the list of supported cards for AE, so it is only a matter of time before the 680 will be added to the list of supported cards for PR. Todd had made that clear. Now, when the 680 is added, it makes sense that the 670 will also be added. My guess is that both will be added in a short while.

Jerky slow video clips after after importing from Cam Corder

Hi there, my iMovie 06 has been absolutely fine and then I have just imported some video clips using firewire from a camcorder and the audio is fine but the clips are slow and jerky and out of sync - I have just purchased an additional 1GB of memory and added this hoping that it would make a difference (the Apple store seemed to think it would) but it hasn't - and the other movie projects I have which were absolutely fine are also playing back like this - the guy in the apple store tried everything he knew but was baffled - can anyone suggest what is causing this problem and how to rectify it - I have a Powerbook G4 1.5 ghz 12 inch.
Thanks
Jenni

Jenni28,
Are the clips jerky and slow when placed in the timeline? Or also when in the clips pane?
Did you recently upgrade to QuickTime 7.5? Many have reported stuttering/jerking playback after this upgrade.
I, too, just recently upgraded to QT 7.5, and yes, Klaus1, I have the stuttering problem despite following 'most' of your suggestions.
It is similar to what I found in iMovie 5, and in 6 if I put in many audio or video clips. I work around it by importing into clips pane, checking each video clip and cropping there or in timeline. I then add the photos, and do titles and transitions. The stuttering begins after I add several audio clips. I know that the final movie will burn fine, so I just continue with my edits. I export the movie as Full Quality Quicktime and import that into a new iMovie. It plays fine. I add chapter markers and then drag it into iDVD. Burns flawlessly, so I am not too concerned about the jerkiness.
I noticed that it had seemingly resolved with about version 7.2 of QuickTime, but it is now back again. I was in the middle of a couple of iMovies, and I downloaded version 7.5 by accidentally clicking on it. It was nearly finished installing before I discovered what I had done. I decided to work with it.
Klaus, I will apply your recommendations after I finish this and one other movie. Then I will see if it resolves. I don't want to go back to 7.4.5 now.

Flash 10 and PPC - slow video playback

Have an old PowerBook 12" running 10.5. Since upgrading to
Flash v10 the video playback is slow and sluggish to the point
Flash content is unusable. Tried to download a PPC specific version
but Adobe downloads gave me the Universal Binary once again. I
suspect v10 is buggy and is not supporting "Enable Hardware
Acceleration" on PPC so video is being scaled and processed by
software.
Anyone else having this problem? Anyone able to direct me to
good old v9?

Restarting might help temporarily, but for a more permanent solution you'd need a faster computer processor, a better video card, lots more RAM, and a faster hard drive. The sad truth of the matter is that technology advances so quickly that older computer hardware can't keep up with it. It would actually cost less to buy a new computer than it would to try to upgrade an older model. The iMac CRT's are still useful for many tasks, but they can't be expected to handle present-day multimedia.

Slow video playback in Photoshop Elements 11

Playback of videos directly in Photoshop Elements Organizer is very slow. Video is stuttering.
Playing the same video outside of PSE11 with Windows Media Player is much better. Video plays without any stuttering.
Looks like the internal video player of PSE11 is very poor and provides slow performance.
What can I do do have the same video performance with the PSE11 player as I have with WMP.
I use Windows 7 64 Bit (8 GB RAM) with a Intel Core i3 (2330). This CPU has enough power to playback HD or Full-HD videos without any stuttering!!!
Why can't the internal play of PSE11 Organizer play my videos without stuttering - like WMP 12.0.7601.18150 does?
Regards,
Dodson65

The videos I use are created with different devices.
I have HD videos taken with a Pentax DSLR and I have Full-HD videos taken with a Windows Phone 8 device.
Both playback on my Laptop without any stottering with different software. I checked WMP and VLC. Even when using my Laptop with energy-saving profile these videos can be played without stottering.
When I playback the videos in PSE11 Organizer I don't want to edit them - just playback. So why should the internal player behave different? I agree with you - this might be different when I playback the videos in Premiere Elements 11 (as this is a video editing software). But when using Photoshop Elements 11 I want to be able to playback videos in the same performance as I can do with WMP or VLC. If Photoshop Elements 11 can't do that - why? The organizer of PSE11 is not an editor. It should be able to playback videos the same way (with the same performance) as other players on my laptop.
Can you please explain this sentence: "Have you started a Premiere Elements project yet that uses this video's specs? This will often trigger Premiere Elements to download the necessary components for interpretting the video." Is there anything I can do to improve video playback performance?

No sound on any video playback after 5-10 seconds

The sound on my second generation ipad seems to disappear after 5-10 seconds of watching any video playback, although sound works when i stream to my apple TV so I'm assuming its the device that's problematic. Any suggestions on how to resolve this issue and get sound from the ipad would be greatly appreciated.

Perform a "reset" on the device by pressing down and holding the home button and the sleep/wake button for up to 30secs. until you see a black screen with the Apple logo, then release.
Then test to see if it solved the problem.

Video Playback After 3.1.2 Update

I have recently updated to 3.1.2 and now find that some videos, that played perfectly well before the update, are now pixelated and of a considerably lesser standard.
Is anyone else aware of this issue and is there any way around it?
Thanks in advance.

Your suggestion to reset and restore is much appreciated.
However, I wouldn't have labelled the video playback issue a bug before trying something so basic.
To review, just like to person who began this thread, when playing back videos on my 2G iPod touch using OS 3.1.2, any attempt to summon the video controls, after about the first 10 seconds of playback, does not work. The iPod offers no response to any gestures on the screen.
That the iPod's behavior (a) was not observed before the current OS, (b) has been experienced by other users with the same hardware and firmware combination, and (c) continues no matter how many times I reset and restore the device, sounds very much like a bug to me.
My apologies if I offended anyone with the question I posed at the end of my previous post, but it does seem that, in their rush to get stuff out to us, high-visibility glitches like this are becoming more frequent. Perhaps, with our ridiculously high expectations of Apple, we are in part to blame.

Slow video playback

Hello,
I previously had no problems playing videos in iTunes. Recently, however, video playback becomes choppy about 10 seconds in, while audio remains fine. This happens both with my own ripped videos and with iTunes Store videos, at 100% view (i.e., not fullscreen or anything). Looking at Activity Monitor, iTunes begins to eat up 90-105% CPU.
I only have a few apps running (e.g., Camino, iChat, Mail), and everything is responsive until iTunes starts chugging away, at which point my whole system slows down. Can anyone help shed some light on what is going on?

I've been having the same problem on my G4. I created a second user account and noticed that videos play perfectly there, just not in my normal account. I'm now trying to troubleshoot from there to see if it's some third party thing or widget or something that is the cause. Maybe someone else could try the same thing - create another account and see if that solves the problem - then go back and try troubleshooting their regular account. This seems like it could be a solvable problem to me at this point. Please post your results.

Slow video playback in very high resolution X11

Hi everyone. I write this msg for ask your eternal knowledgement.
I have a very huge system (i7 3820 LGA2011, 8Gb quad channel, Gigabyte x79-up5-wifi, AMD HD5870 2Gb Eyefinity 6, etc) running Arch on it. The OS is updated. The Arch config is very minimal, using Fluxbox as WM and VLC and Mplayer to playback videos. The video driver is the latest stable Catalyst (13.4) and so on. I got connected six HD screens seted to a resolution of 1366x768. These screens are managed with xrandr, adjusted for considering the bezel compensation, using xrand --output MONITOR --pos X+BEZELxY+BEZEL.
When i play a video with mplayer (using the gl video driver) the movie shows very well and smooth, but when i pan the video all over de virtual screen (4194x1583 aprox), the movie shows very choppy.
The strange fact is the Conky reports shows me an 5% of CPU usage, so the system performance are not the problem.
The mplayer flags that i use to play this video are plenty, being the threads=4, gl:ati-hack and -root the most important.
If anyone can give me a hint to solve this issue, i would be very grateful.
thx in advance.

G5 crashes during iTunes video playback after Leopard install

I have a G5 1.6 single-processor running 10.5.1. Since I installed Leopard, I have been experiences frequent crashes during iTunes video playback (TV shows bought in the iTunes store). The crashes hang my whole system and require a restart by holding down the power button. The video itself sort of "blip-blip-blips" during the crash, but the mouse and keyboard are unresponsive, windows don't do anything, etc.
Any thoughts? Anyone else with this problem? Thanks!

Ever since I installed Leopard on my dual 2ghz G5, neither itunes nor quicktime player works. They both crash on launch. Maybe not the same issue, but I'm regretting the upgrade.

Is anyone else experiencing problems after ios8 update? Slow video playback, juddery images, slow loads within apps etc. my iPad is 3 years old but was highest spec available when purchased.

(A) Try reset iPad
Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home button down together until you see the Apple Logo.
Note: Data will not be affected.
(B) Close all apps in the multi-task window
1.Double-click the Home button.
2. Swipe the app's preview up to close it.
3. Preview will fly off the screen.

ATI driver issues and slow video playback

I just reinstalled Arch and I installed the ATI drivers, at first I couldn't get them working but when I did, video in full screen was amazingly slow, so I tried installing ati-drivers-arch, as someone in the boards suggested but after that each time I start X, it would crash my computer, so right now I am using the standard vesa driver to even start X.
Also when trying to resize mplayer (while using -vo gl) it says my computer is too slow. And VLC has no speed issues but the quality of the picture is very poor.
I am running:
AMD Athlon 64 3200+

It doesn't look like xorg 7 has been installed. The latest kernel 2.6.15 needs xorg 7, udev, and initrd .
I may be wrong but my xorg is much smaller in size and fonts are handled differently in the latest kernels.
Please see the blogs concerning the upgrades to the xorg 7 changes.

Choppy iPhone video playback after upgrading to 10.5 + QuickTime 7.6.9

Hi,
I recently upgraded from 10.4 to 10.5 on my Powerbook G4. I used the "Archive and Install" option. After updating all software to the latest (10.5.8 OSX + 7.6.9 QuickTime), I noticed that the playback of the videos shot with my iPhone 3GS becomes extremely choppy (jumps combined with slow-mo). Based on the what's in "Previous System", I was using QT 7.6.4 with OS 10.4, which didn't have this playback issue.
I found several posts related to similar issues in the forum, and tried the following suggestions without success:
(1) removing all third party plug-ins from /Library/QuickTime;
(2) repair permissions with Disk Utility;
(3) installing Perian;
None of the above made a difference. Just for the heck of it, I tried "su" in Terminal and moved "QuickTimeH264.component" to "QuickTimeH264.component.bkp". Surprisingly this made the playback a lot better (all the iPhone clips are H264+ACC). So I'm guessing somehow the QT H264 component is not working properly for me, but what is QT using instead to play those videos after I renamed the component? It shouldn't be any of the third-party plug-ins since I tried removing all the third-party stuff at the same time, and the videos still played fine. I'd like to get to the bottom of this as I'm a little uneasy about re-naming the H264 component.
I hope someone more QT savvy can diagnose the problem based on what I've tried and make new suggestions. Granted my machine is a bit long in the tooth but it's still decently powered (1.67 GHz, 1.5 GB RAM, 320GB HDD) and the videos played fine before the "upgrade".
Is it worth doing a clean re-install of 10.5 as opposed to the "archive and install"? It's a pain obviously to have to re-install all the apps but I'm willing to try it if it could reasonably make a difference.
Thanks in advance!

The problem is that you moved your Mail application to a sub-folder in your Applications folder, and you are running an older copy of Mail.
From your crash report it shows your path is to a different folder then the default folder:
Path: /Applications/Mail Apps/Mail.app/Contents/MacOS/Mail
It also shows that you are not running the correct version of Mail (should be version 3.5 (930.3):
Version: 3.5 (929.4)
Check out this article:

The short of it is that you may have two copies of Mail on your system. When 10.5.6 installed, it may not have updated Mail correctly. Look to see if you have another copy of Mail in your Applications folder, and if so run it and check it's version from the 'About Mail' menu option, it should be 3.5 (930.0). My recommendation is to remove any copy of mail that is not in /Applications (if there is no version of Mail in Applications, move the one you have in Mail Apps back) and run the Mail Update referenced in the article above.

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

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
