Some movie trailers here at Apple have audio only

I posted this on the G4 Mac PowerPC forum here and statistically speaking there are enough G4/G5 computers that posters are replying they experience a similiar problem in only hearing audio (not seeing video) with certain move trailers. Perhaps I should post this in a Safari forum here too if one exists.
The link to my post in the G4 forum is
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1097114&tstart=0
p.s. I'm using 10.4.10 which isn't reflected in my info at link above

the reason i supplied the link above to the G4 forum was to show that other users also couldn't see the video in Safari - while true other browsers [like Firefox] have no problem with it. One of my points is that even after updating Safari to the most recent beta version for G4 it still won't show video (only one can hear audio) - which in my opinion could be interpreted as unacceptable as the trailer is on the Apple Quicktime site yet users report they can't view the video with Safari but can with Firefox [the irony]. Apple should look into this if they are reading this thread [and find a fix] because a Safari user should be able to view the video of a trailer they [Apple] post on their own site without having to use a third party browser like Firefox.
for expedience the link is:

p.s. I am not complaining about this being a problem with "just" this trailer. I am complaining because more and more trailers like this one at QT site are like this [and I'm not on an island on my own in experiencing this].

Haven't really used any of them including VLC - actually use netflix on the ipad more than anything. I was able to drop an mp4 into imovie on my ipad and see it there. This was something I had shot as avhcd and converted with turbo.264. Played fine. Probably not what you want for a movie player though.
Well, turbo.264 is indeed very nice to have - even for converting full-sized movies. (Nevertheless, TechRadar's latest roundup (see http://www.techradar.com/news/software/applications/6-of-the-best-video-converte rs-for-mac-1074303 ; also linked from another roundup at http://www.iphonelife.com/blog/87/benchmark-excellent-multimedia-converter-handb rake-vs-commercial-apps ) has shown it's still worse than HandBrake in most respects.)
All H.264 files (assuming they are H.264 level 4.1 or lower) are compatible with the built-in Videos app.

Those of you who use other players, what do you reccomend? Just curious.
It entirely depends on your needs. The top players (AVPlayerHD / ProPlayer, It's Playing, GoodPlayer) all have different strengths and weaknesses. I myself use It's Playing the most as I convert everything into MP4 and simply love the DSP's (brightness / volume / saturation boosting). (Its software decoders are definitely worse than those of AVPlayerHD / ProPlayer; however, MP4's are played back from hardware.)

I'm trying to view my movies through itunes and apple TV but only a few appear in itunes when i add to library, they include .avi and mp4 files. Whys have only a few copied and rest wont add to my library, can someone help? Do I need to convert them?

Bought TV and Movie and have audio only NO VIDEO!!!

Why don't I have video? I have plenty of space. Just bought the new IPod 30GB for my niece for Christmas, and I wanted to put a few TV shows and a movie on it for her. I was able to download the TV shows and the movie, but got only audio. Don't know why I did not get video. PLEASE HELP!!!!
Thanks
Beth

I figured it out. I had the TV setting as "ON" when it should be "OFF" in order to see the video.

Some movies are on my Apple TV but not on my Mac.

I just set up my new Apple TV today and I noticed when I log in with my Apple account, there are a few movies I can see in my Apple TV list but not my iTunes list on my Mac? Why is this? Also, I purchased a movie through Apple TV, how do I download it to my Mac?

Okay, I think i'm having the same problem again after I purchase a movie through my Apple TV. I cannot see it in my initial movies list whn i log onto my Apple ID here at my work computer. Before I was able to see ALL my library but now I cannot see them. And I also noticed on my computer at home. I logged out, then logged back in just to be sure and I cannot see all of my movies. I though you can just be able t watch the movies you have purchased or loaded from a disc onot iTunes without haveing to download them at all. (just stream them)
Here on my work computer, I do have "check for available downloads" checked and on my computer at home. I also checked the purchased tab in the iTunes home wondow and on my home computer is stated that all downlaods for my ID are available, or whatever it says, cant really remember off the top of my head. Here on my work computer I did the same thing and I see ALL my movies. But that is the thing, I do not want to downlaod them on my work computer, just stream them. Like I said, before, I was able to just see them in my movies tab and watch them streaming but now they are all gone.

Is there a way to have audio only come through the optic cable and video come only through HDMI on Apple TV 3rd Gen?

I currently have a digital optic cable hook up from my Apple TV 3 to my receiver and a HDMI hook up from my Apple TV 3to my flat screen. The audio is coming out of my TV speakers and receiver at the same time. I was wonder if there was a way to switch the audio output from the Apple TV 3 to the digital optic cable and only have video come out of the HDMI? I really only plan on using my receiver for the audio for my Apple TV 3. I know that I can just mute the TV but I wanted to know if there was a way to switch the feed. Thanks

There is an option on my TV but if I do that I lose all my audio on the TV. I have 3 HDMI ports on my Flat Screen. One is for my cable, one is for my PS3 (BTW the PS3 has an option to switch the audio feed so it will come out of the digital optic cable and leave video for the HDMI), and the last one is for my Apple TV 3. If I switch to external speakers I will lose my audio for the cable. I was hoping there was a way to switch the audio feed on the Apple TV 3.

I have no audio when using Adobe Presenter. My daughter, on her MacBookPro, does have audio.

I'm trying to listen to a lecture on Adobe Presenter but there is no audio.

Hi Funkd,
The video / audio team is still hard at work trying to fix the audio problems introduced in 11.3. Would you be willing to test a build of Flash Player that contains a few changes and additional debug logging functionality? If so, please contact me directly at [email protected]
Thanks,
Chris

After capturing SOME of my clips don't have audio sync

This particular problem is confusing me because it doesn't happen consistently.
The audio on the tape is fine. Sometimes while capturing a pop up window will appear that says "Analyzing Audio." I don't know how often this has happened because I use telecine logs to capture, and I don't watch the capture.
I did see it happen once though and that clip ended up being out of sync. The clips captured after were fine. So I think the "Analyzing Audio" thing is causing the problem. I've never seen this window before, so I don't know whats happening.
I am logging 1-2 reels a day, so the number of clips is piling up fast. I am noticing about 1 clip per reel when I am watching the clips in FCP.
I hope that's enough information for someone to help :\
Thanks

Anyone?

Are the movie trailers accessed thru Apple TV in Dolby Digital?

BExcuse none of them show as being in Dobly Digital when I play them. Thanks in advance for any clarification.

On my Apple TV in the description for Skyfall, Life of Pi & The Birds it just shows 1080p & CC (no DD symbol) whereas Argo & Psycho shows 1080p DD & CC, I am just going by the film description on the screen before purchasing. If the description doesn't show that little DD symbol, I assume it is not in Dolby Digital and likely not to give it buying consideration.

My IOS 8 was updated to 8.1 and it turns out that my internet is getting slower especially when i'm watching some movies and videos..I have no problem with my local internet.

I updated my IOS 8 to 8.1 and my net getting slower. Why is that?

Thanks for the swift reply, I have been looking online and a loose plug seems to be somewhat of an issue with many, I hope mine is actually a problem and not what others are experiencing. It's taken me this long to even reach out for the simple fact I HATE being a complainer but this is just horrible.
Do you have an iPad 3 as well? And is yours not experiencing any issues close to mine?
Thanks again!

Is there a way to have audio only play once in Adobe Cp 6?

I have a project that includes a click box. If the learner click OUTSIDE the click box then a failure caption comes up with audio. I'd like to have that audio play only once, even if they continue to click outside the click box. Right now, if they keep clicking outside the click box, the audio will start playing and I will have multiple instances of the audio playing (and soon it sounds like a cocktail party). How can I correct this?

Hi there,
If you want that the audio should play once after clicking that is possible, but after clicking outside it will replay that audio, but only one instance of audio will be there.
You can Insert two click boxes and One will cover the whole Slide (Incorrect ) and Other will be inside that click box (for correct region). Then You can apply standard actions on these click boxes when clicked, and include an action to stop triggered audio and another action to play the Audio.
Like below I added two click boxes and two text captions, Text Captions are not visible in output, they will only be visible after clicking the respective click box:
The advanced action on correct click box and shows the correct Caption and plays the audio for correct:
The advanced action on incorrect click box and shows the incorrect Caption and plays the audio for incorrect.
You can also change the attempts on that click box, by default it is infinite:
Is this what you want? please reply.

Recommend some external 1TB FW HD for recording audio only please

Not too expensive

Well, OK, but what do you consider "not too expensive"?
FWIW, FW400 drives are cheaper than FW800 drives. But the cost of the adapter cable you'll need might offset the savings.
Oh, and like, where do you live? "South" of what? South Bronx? South Africa? Can't make any recommendations about where to buy stuff just going by, er, "South".

Apple movie trailers not working

Hi!
I have a problem watching any movie trailers on www.apple.com/trailers page.
If I try to open HD trailer it i get a message that URL is not valid.
If I try to open normal trailer (not HD) I get quicktime logo with question mark and nothing happens.
Anybody else got this problem or there is something wrong with my mac?

That has been discussed ad nauseam in this thread in the Quicktime forum:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2307414&tstart=0
Seemingly there was a period when Snow Leopard users could not see the movie trailers, but it appears to have been resolved.

Movie Trailers - 2 Problems

I think it's really cool that you can watch Movie Trailers on the Apple TV, but I have 2 issues with it. Maybe some of you are having these problems as well:
- The trailers are sorted in Alphabetical order, which makes it impossible to know which trailers are the newest. Wouldn't it be nice to have a switch at the top, to sort them by Date Released? That way, all the newest trailers would be at the top of the list.
- It's impossible to know which trailers you've already watched. It would be nice to have those little blue dots that are used in the Podcasts menu, to indicate which trailers you've watched, and which ones you haven't.

I guess from what Winston has to say on these forums, he's perfectly happy with the features and capabilities of his Apple TV. There are however some people, not all who are vocal, who would like to see the Apple TV improved. The more I think about it, it's what keeps the developers and designers at Apple in a job. If Apple don't want to do it, because it may be too difficult, perhaps they could release the source code into the public domain, as there are many capable developers out there who would be only too happy to make the changes.
It's not that I'm perfectly happy with the current form factor, indeed I agree with many of the other threads that ask for better listings on the tv. In this instance I was merely pointing out that I hadn't seen any other posts that mentioned this particular feature.
It would be difficult to believe that Apple aren't working on these areas but speculative to say too much more. I do however see that introducing listing changes is not as straight forward as you might think. Not from a programming perspective, but consider if you will the issue of movie listings, which has been raised numerous times. I have over 300 movies and have many more to convert, my movie list is long and I'd like to see it get divided up, but how? Many have suggested by genre, but what happens to a movie that I (or indeed the itms store) classify as "Action", but is seen by my wife as a "Thriller", well what happens would be my wife would look for it and wouldn't find it.
Maybe Apple should allow multiple genres or maybe they should use user named folders instead, one thing I'm sure of though is any changes should only be made once, so if there are to be any changes it is important to get them right first time.
