Sound out of sync with movies...

Any movie I watch within iTunes (lets say a rental or something I in my library) has the sound go out of sync after a few minutes and it never recovers.
It doesn't seem to be a hardware issue (VLC works fine and even if I moved the movie to the primary drive, an SSD, I still have issues).

I'm having the same issue - my hardware WAY exceeds the requirements - by 3x- so there shouldn't be any issues at ALL, but there are.
Possible fixed that I have found are:
     -You can pause then replay the video every few min.
     -QuickTime seemsto play the videos just fine, but you have to track down the files on your harddrive.
So far, all I can conclude is that Apple wants youto buy one of their computers to solve the problem, but the still haven'tsolved the issue of a.) the majority of the world not using apple computers, b.) pretty muchevery game coming out on windows computers MONTHS before apple computers, and c.) being totallyincompatible with PC's in a business setting. There's a guy who sends files outat my office with his Mac and he is CONSTANTLY redoing things because it isn'tcompatible with other business's computers - its actually really annoying...

  • My iTunes is playing the films with sound out of sync with video

    I bought some films off of the iTunes store and whenever they're playing, the sound is out of sync with the video. Why is this?
    Please help.
    Sam.

    Maybe this will help. My first movie I made in IMovie approached thirty minutes long. I read in a book that any movie made in IMovie that approaches that length or longer will start to lose sound sync. The trick is to extract the audio from the video. Sure enough it worked for me.

  • Why is the sound out of sync with the video on my PC laptop?

    The sound is out of sync with the video, it skips (like the old-fashioned vinyl records) or there is no sound at all. As well, the video portion is jerky.
    I'm travelling and don't have access to a TV so have to watch it on my PC laptop.
    I've rebooted my laptop a couple of times, but the problem re-occurs.

    In what app?
    Have you restarted or reset the device?

  • Audio out of sync with movie....

    Hi all.
    I'm having a bit of a problem with iDVD 6. I have created a movie with iMovie 6 which includes a slideshow and several small video clips from my camera (all as one movie). The only sound used is some MP3's (AIFF's after placing them in the timeline) and some sound effects, no sound from the videos. Although the previews are fine in iMovie and IDVD, once they have been burnt to DVD the audio is out of sync - delayed by about 6 seconds. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi.
    Thanks Sue & Len for your help. As I type, my movie is now encoding using Full Quality/ Quicktime. I expect it to be in sync but the proof of the pudding will be in the burning. Fingers crossed. Len, I am running Quicktime 7.1 - The digital camera films play fine and with audio through Quicktime, it just gets 'lost' when I place the clips in iMovie. That's not a problem, the sound was horrible anyway! I assume if all works out ok that I can burn the Quicktime file using iDVD using the front-end menu's etc so it'll play on a standard DVD player?
    I'll let you know the results tomorrow night.
    Thanks again for your time & help. It's very much appreciated:)
    Kind regards

  • Sound out of sync with video

    When i watch the video on my ipod the sound doesn’t match up with the mouths of the characters, I used quicktime pro and adjusted it to sync well with the video, in quicktime the sound and video match up perfectly but as soon as I put it on the ipod then its out of sync.

    Anybody have any suggestions? Or is there a different way to adjust the sound with video?

  • Sound out of sync with picture

    I have been recording from VHS to digital and although the sound and picture are in sync on the video they are slightly out when I play them back with Quicktime.
    Does anyone know what maybe causing this or do you know if you can move the sound file in Imovie so that it is back in sync.
    Thanks

    Audio is often recorded as 32 KHz (12 bit) or 48 KHz (16 bit).
    As Roy says, your Easy Setup must match.
    Exactly how are you converting VHS and to what type of "digital"?

  • Video out of sync with sound

    Just got the latest update from Itunes 11.1.2.32 and now, when ever I play a movie in Itunes from the Itunes Store the sound is completely out of sync with the picture.  All other movies players (DivX DVDs and Windows Media player) all play fine.  Itunes played fine before the update as well.  Any ideas?

    Most of my video problems have come from using a computer too slow to play the file correctly. I cannot play iTunes video on my desktop have to use laptop.

  • Audio Out of Sync with Itunes downloaded Movie

    I have searched on here for an answer, but have found none, so I go to the great Mac experts. I have downloaded two shows from Itunes in the last 4 days and during playback on my G4 the audio is out of sync with the picture. This has never happened before. I just updated Itunes with the latest update about a week ago. Is anyone having this problem, and better yet, any experts out there care to weigh in on a solution? It's very annoying. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I downloaded a 90 minute TV show and it becomes out of sync @ 51 minutes in. I have no idea why and this has never happened before. Can't seem to find any explanations online so any solutions you find would be greatly appreciated...

  • Sound out of sync on DL DVD

    The audio is out of sync by about 3 seconds on a 132-minute DL DVD I just encoded and burned in iDVD. The video was edited in Final Cut Express, using 16-bit 48Khz audio recorded using Sound Studio 3.
    From Final Cut Express each movie was processed with Anamorphicizer (a 3rd-party freeware tool) to preserve the 16:9 aspect ratio. Then the reference movies generated by Anamorphicizer were imported into iDVD for burning.
    After encoding the first time, iDVD failed with a -34502 error before burning. This was due to the menu error. I changed menu templates and burned again. It multiplexed everything and burned to the DVD.
    When I played back the disc, I found the audio is about 3 seconds out of sync with the video. A single-layer edition of the same movie was also produced and the audio was flawless on it (though the picture quality was bad).
    As an added note, the DVD plays well on my computer but the movie on the second layer won't load on my set-top DVD player. Separate, probably un-related issue, but worth noting.

    Hi Joel Nelson
    As an added note, the DVD plays well on my computer but the movie on the second layer won't load on my set-top DVD player. Separate, probably un-related issue, but worth noting.
    Let me get this striaght .... It's only out of sync on the standalone DVD Player but plays ok on the computer? Is this correct?
    If so, have you tried the out of sync DL DVD on another set top DVD Player to perhaps isolate this issue?
    Suggestion: Take it to a local consumer electronics shop and try it out on multiple name brand DVD Players.

  • New Insignia NS-L55X-10A sound not in sync with surround sound

    My new Insingina NS L55X 10A was delivered this morning, replacing a 7 year old 52" Hitachi.  Of course they just swapped the TV's, plugged it up and attached the cable coax and made sure it would turn on.  I didn't notice until they left, but the sound is out of sync with my surround system.  I didn't have this problem with the Hitachi.  I spent several hours, replacing all the cables with HDMI, and everything is still the same.  Is this a common problem and is there an easy fix?  What am I overlooking?  Thanks for any replies.

    I misread your original post I guess. I thought you were talking about the lipsync being off from the sound when watching tv or a movie.
    Yes it is possible for there to be a slight delay when using a receiver and the internal speakers of the tv. Normally its not too noticable but it can happen. Most people don't watch tv with both sets of speakers on, you either listen to the tv speakers or the receiver not both. I have owned several home theatre systems and sometimes there is a delay from one system to other. Normally not very much though.
    Out of curiosity can I ask you why you would watch tv with both on? The correct thing to do would be turn your tv all the way down when using an amplified system or better yet disable the internal speakers of the tv if your using a surround sound system.
    This may be exagerated to some extent with the new systems utilizing HDMI connections and advanced processing features. One device is processing the signal at a different rate than the other one so you could in fact get some sort of reverb effect by using both. The delay is going to be in miliseconds though. Or it is possible that the surround sound receiver is utilizing some sort of built in delay to some of the speakers. Where as the tv would not employ any delay at all. It could also have something to do with how the devices are connected or switched. One set up could possibly have less delay than the other.

  • Sound not in sync with video on Apple TV

    On some movies synced from iTunes to Apple TV, the sound is out of sync with the video. I sync from a Powerbook G4 with an attached FW 800 external drive storing the movies. Any ideas on what amy be causing this?

    I downloaded from iTunes. Yes, I have seen that same issue with other movies I have converted with a 3rd party app. I did not expect to see it with iTunes downloads. Other movies from iTunes convert fine on ATV.

  • Why is sound out of sync when I burn a DVD?

    I finished a movie in iMovie 4 as I always have and opened iDVD from iMovie. After creating the opening title and burning the disk, I discovered that the sound was slightly out of sync with the image. It was fine in iMovie. Any ideas what went wrong?
    Richard

    Welcome to the forums.
    There can be sync problems if the original video was
    captured in Long Play mode or the camcorder's audio
    quality is on the lower setting. You can search the
    forum for other solutions, but one option to try is
    Extracting the audio in iMovie. This will make a
    copy of the original audio and put it on one of your
    audio tracks (and mute the original audio). The
    copied audio often will behave better.
    John
    Thank you, John-
    Your suggestion about extracting all the audio worked. My latest DVD burn was in snyc.
    I am still confused as to why such a workaround is even neccessary. I have never had this problem of out of sync audio with any other projects. Why it suddenly happened is a mystery to me. I'm very happy your suggestion worked but it is rather labor intensive if it has to be done on every project from now on.
    Any ideas out there?
    Thanks again.
