Sound freezes after a while.

My sound Freezes a couple of minutes after I turn my computer on.
I think I have found the problem. In my /var/log/kernel.log this is written to the file when it happens:

I understand that it is a IRQ collision problem, and IRQPOLL does fix the problem (but as we know, renders the computer useless after a while), but I have yet to find a fix for this on the internet. I have searched for days and weeks without finding a solution. Any help would be much appreciated as this totaly screws my experience with Arch. I love the system, but no sound is no good.
Also, I am wondering if disabling usb support will at least let me use sound with out any trouble.
Again, my gratitude would be endless if someone can tell me more about the problem. Is it a known one?
Regards Eirik

Absolutely. A single 5400 disk when the minimum suggested is three 7200 disks. And for AVCHD the CPU is below bare minimum as well, maybe not even that.

Video player in iPod 60Gig. Sound stops after a while playing large clips

I have been converting DVDs and large video clips into iPod MPEG 4 format for the iPod with the Xilisoft DVD to iPod Converter 4. This softwrae works just great and the files plays well on my PC with Quick Time player as well as others. When loaded to the iPod they all start OK but the sound disapears after a while. If I fast-forward or backward then it works for a while again.
I do not see this behaviour with short clips (3-5 minutes)
As far as I can see this is related to the MPEG4 player in the iPod. Anyone have a similar problem or some resolution to it.

Nope,
But I just discovered that that it is actually not only the sound that stops working but rather the whole video that has a "hick-up" and then when it continues the sound is gone. If I fastforward/rewind then it seem like the player rocovers and play the stream correctly again.
What are the Mp4 clip prefs you have used when converting?
I am planning to try some other settings when converting to see if that makes any difference but I doubt it will help. I think we will have to wait for a "better" i.e. working Video Player for the iPod ...

Sound freezes after a few minutes.

After a while erverything slowed down and the computer was useless. So I'm back to where I started.

DVD freezes after a while (Encore DVD 2.0)

Hi,
after burning a project with menus and several chapters, I play the DVD on a DVD player(not a computer !), and the DVD is hanging after a few chapters.
My DVD burner itself seems to be ok. I tried with an other burner, and I've got the same problem. After 40/45 mn the DVD hangs with large pixels. Sometimes, the DVD goes on. Sometimes, it hangs and I cannot do anything.
I burned a lot of different DVD (Philips, TDK, Sony) with different speeds (4X, 8X, 16X), and I always get the problem.
That's my first project under Encore DVD. All other projects have been burned directly from Premiere Pro 2.0, without problem. I've exported the sequences from PPro 2.0 using the following (and common) parameters : MPEG2-DVD, CBR 6 Mbits, 720 x 576, PAL, Quality 5.0,
Is it a known bug of Encore ?
Does it sound to anybody ?
Many thanks for your help.

I am having a problem with the DVD's playing as well. They work on my computers, but others tell me they start for about 15 minutes and start to fail. Some computers can play them, some not. I am thinking that because I have large files that I do not chapter, there is a memory issue with the computers. Will chaptering when I author make the dvds load eaiser?

Powerbook g4 freezing after restart while using install and restore cd

i want to restore my powerbook to the original settings. i insert the install and restore cd that came with my computer and after i click the install mac os x icon, the computer prompts to restart. when the computer starts to restart, it freezes and won't read from the disc. it just continues to give the message you need to restart your computer.
anyone have any suggestions or help in this matter.
thanks,

if PowerBook crashes like that when booted from original install CD, it is likely hardware problem.
try removing extra RAM, pull out AirPort card, reset PRAM
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=14449
and make sure CD is not scratched/dirty.
if you have original CDs kit, there supposed to be hardware test CD included with it, boot from test CD, see what it says.

Illustrator CS3 (13.0.2) stacks and freezes after a while.

I have problems with Illustrator CS3.
Sometimes, when I am using it and go to select a layer, it .. stack/freeze whatever. I don't know why, but the cost to me is too much - specially if I haven't save my artwork for some time.. (you might understand how much annoying is this!).
I also have noticed, that if I leave Illustrator open, and do others things for some minutes, then if I try to close it.. ..it just freezes without consuming any CPU power. The only way to close it, is via forcing close with task manager or log-off.
Anyone with same problems?
Anyone with any solutions?
Any way to inform technical team about these issues? (I can't find where I officially should report this problems!)
* I am working on windows XP, dual Core 2GHz each, 2GB mem, ~20GB free disk space. And all updates have been applied.

Playing footage over network - slow down after a while

Hi everybody, I have ProRes422 footage I work with stored on network. We bought a 12TB NAS and I found, that when I play the edited movie from timeline, it freezes after a while (2-5 minutes) - it seems to me there is some kind of network overload so that the data cannot be transferred fast enough to continue playback. I thought it is problem of the NAS, but I tried to read the footage from external HDD over network and the problem is the same. Would any of you have an idea how to fix this?
Thanks

For users like you who insist on ignoring the warnings and still want to buy cheap, I offer this alternative:
Buy Local Attached Storage, RAID 5, for each work station, a gigabit Ethernet switch, and CAT6 Ethernet cabling.
These days, you can buy 8TB of RAID 5 storage, including the RAID card, for less than $4,000US. The Ethernet6 switch is about $50US and the cabling is cheap.
Buy twice the storage as you think you need, then make file copies via the gigabit Ethernet network of all files on the storage on each computer onto the storage on the other computer. Now, you are maintaining a continuous back up of all data, which is a bonus benefit.
The real benefit, though, is speed. Modern RAID 5 storage systems achieve throughput in excess of 600 MB/sec, far more than 23 MB/sec.
Your investment in new equipment will be far less than buying a SAN.

Pavilion g6 sound stops working after a while

Over the past week the sound in my laptop has begun to stop working after a while of the laptop being on. It works initially but after a while when I check it doesn't work anymore. The mute button does not mute work, the volume increse and decreases on the screen but it does not affect the absense of sound. Please Help.
System Details: HP Pavilion g6, Windows 8

HI. I'm having the same problem. This has been happening for some time now. I can play anything with sound and then it suddenly goes and I can't use the mute/on/off or work out what's happening. Is it a fault?

Hi Kappy Thanks for your answer. I did a reboot on my Macbook as suggested and this operation is going on non stop for 14 hours and on the screen always appears the same message that you can see in the picture in attachment. Any ideas?

Firefox doesn't accept some sites and IT'S FREEZING sometimes and you can't write anything or click anywhere...reaaly disaponting, I have to restart it and after a while same thing, I can't close any tab only by options close tab.

Firefox doesn't accept some sites and IT'S FREEZING sometimes and you can't write anything or click anywhere...reaaly disaponting, I have to restart it and after a while same thing, I can't close any tab only by options close tab so you can't use Command Q or Command R for reloading...GRRRRRrrrr, hate this

As I asked previously are you able to have tabs open as a window by using the right clicking option ?
When you close Firefox you should use
*'''Firefox button -> File -> Exit '''
Are you doing that ?
I suspect what may be happening is Firefox is hanging as it closes down.
* see [[Firefox hangs or is not responding - How to fix#w_firefox-hangs-when-you-quit-it]]_firefox-hangs-when-you-quit-it
* this explains how to check & if necessary kill the process [["Firefox is already running but is not responding" error message - How to fix it#w_end-firefox-processes]]_end-firefox-processes
A related possible problem is that you may have built up many copies of the restore files. These are stored in the Firefox profile. The easiest method of finding the profile location istouse
*use '''Firefox button -> Help -> Troubleshooting Information <br /> -> [Show Folder]'''
*see [[Profiles - Where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data]]
You need to look for the files ''sessionstore.js'' and numbered duplicates of that. Delete them.

Exported projector.exe file - sound turning off after a while

I have exported a flash clip as an exe flash presentation file. I am using Windows 7 with flash player 10.
The flash clip contains 4 seperate video files (movie trailers) which have been imported into flash. I am able to play these fine by running the exe file created in Flash (CS4).
After a while (10 min or much longer somethimes) the audio goes off but the flash movie still plays without the audio.
Any ideas what could be wrong?
I have also improved the quality of the video files that I am using within the flash movie (downloaded them as HD video files and converted them to f4v files in Adobe Media Encoder and imported them into flash to play with flv component. Unfortunately when I try to play the published exe file, when it comes to play the imported video elements the audio plays fine but the images of the movie are jittery. Am i doing something wrong?
Thanks in advance

Hi, not sure if you are in the correct forum. You may have more help in the Flash forum.
I don't understand CS4 and how Flash Player is related, so can't respond to that. Perhaps someone else will.
You could look on the right hand side for "more like this" when you open your thread since those threads are related to
issues similar.
