T420 Video Lags

My t420 has an integrated Intel HD Graphics card. Periodically, it will pixelate the screen and white out parts of programs like excel. Most recently, it shows an "up-carrot" or < )pointing up, it little sections of the screen. I tried changing resolution, drivers, refresh rate, you name it.
I just took the hard disk out and put it in another T420 to see if it's a physical graphics card problem, or a driver issue. Any ideas?

What you are describing is known as "artifacts" and that usually happens when a person overclocks a GPU. Unless you did that, then the only other thing I'm thinking is either overheating or faulty GPU
First test and see what the temperatures are so run GPU-Z and see what it says:

Video Lagging/Choppy videos on Macbook Pro

Hello,
I am having a problem while watching videos online: video lagging/choppy videos. Sometimes the video is stuck in a certain frame although I still have the sound on the background; sometimes the video slows down completely (frame+sound). It started around one month ago, and exists in several different websites, I couldn`t solve it by myself. I am not very good with computers. I tried to uninstall/reinstall flash player, as well as disable hardware acceleration, and the problem is still there. Also somedays the videos are working fine, and somedays they are all bad independent of websites. I tried to use different browsers (chrome/firefox/safari), but the problem persists.
I am using a Macbook Pro and bought it in the beginning of January this year (right now it is running OS X 10.7.4) with flash player version 11.2.202.235.
I would very much appreciate if you can help me.
Thanks.

mellskucukoglu, uninstall all adobe products then install Adobe Flash Player, Adobe Reader, Adobe Air, Adobe Shockwave Player. Make sure to select the operating system correctly behind the link. Turn off your antivirus till you finish installation as suggested below the webpage. If it still doesn't work check for OS X 10.7.4 updates.
If it still doesn't work then go for Adobe Live chat in this link http://www.adobe.com/support/chat/ivrchat.html . Sometimes they are busy. If they can't help. Think about any changes that you made before this issue like installaling any new apps. Uninstall them. If it still doesn't work then install Adobe Flash Professional CS 6. After installing check for adobe updates and update them all. It should work at this point. If not ,watch this

Video lags behind sound in YouTube app

I am using the iPad mini with the latest iOS update (7.1.1). When I use the YouTube app, the video lags behind the sound. What I mean by that is that I play the video for a few seconds and the lip-synching will be off. If I then pause the video, I can see the video catching up to the sound. However, the video will quickly begin to lag behind the sound again. This makes watching anything with dialogue pretty awful.

The same issue is happening with the Netflix app. Also, apps like Facebook and Safari seem to be crashing much more frequently for me after this update.

MacBook Pro 15 Mid 2009 - Mac OSX 10.10.2 - Any issues with video lagging/audio lagging?

Hello
Current OS and System details below. Have started to experience audio and video lagging when browsing (not effecting audio on music)
Have looked at some forums and it appears to be an issue with some later cards and Mac Book Pros
Any one else experiencing issues? and if so are they resolved? and if so by what manner were they resolved?

Since yo said "an issue with some later cards and Mac Book Pros" I would also post n the MacBook forum
MacBook Pro

When scrubbing through all of my clips, the video lags and there is a green frame that stays on the screen.

In the viewer, not the timeline, I scrub through the media that I have (1080i video) and the video lags. There is also a green frame that hovers over where the cursor is when scrubbing and I can't see the clips. Final Cut should be running smoothly...

Im using final cut express4.0.1
Right now I am using the blink effect. I wasn’t sure if it was just that effect so I tried the emboss effect and a blur effect and the video seemed to lag when I used them as well. When I export the video the blink effect runs smoothly, but its hard to tell if I got the video how I want it when it lags in the preview window.

Leopard video lagging like crazy

So after installing Leopard on my upgraded G4 Cube (1.5GHz, 1.5GB RAM), I'm noticing insane video lag. Nothing moves smoothly; Dock icons jump around. I suspect that I need a newer video card that the factory-installed one. I'm mainly just posting to make sure that's the culprit; I want to make sure before dropping 50 dollars on one. So, is it the most likely culprit?

Yes, the OEM Rage 128 Pro is a mangy, lazy dog, totally incapable of dealing with Leopards graphics requirements.
You need a graphics card that supports OpenGL 2.0 (2.0 is best, OpenGL 1.5 at a minimum) and also supports Core Image.

The easiest to get into the Cube is a flashed Geforce 6200.
More of a challenge, but the fastest card a 2x AGP machine can use, is a Radeon 9800 Pro.

ITunes video lagging horribly

I've been having this problem for awhile now: Whenever I try and play a video in iTunes - be it movie, TV show, music video, or video podcast - the video lags. The audio often works just fine, but the video is choppy, as if I'm watching a slideshow or a series of pictures rather than a video. Video works fine on the internet, and in the majority of my video players, it does as well. Please note that I am only trying to play iTunes bought videos in iTunes - the videos have not been tampered with in any way, so there should not be a problem there.
I am using a Windows XP Pentium 4 CPU, 1.50GHz. I have 512 MB of RAM on the computer. It is not a new computer by any means, but it is also not terribly old. I have had this problem with several other videos in unrelated video players, but that is due to a codec issue that refuses to be solved. Besides that, other videos work fine. It is only iTunes videos that are not playing.
Someone please help me figure out what's doing this or how I can fix it. Or if I can fix it, if it comes down to that, because this is getting seriously annoying.

Just updated iTunes to most recent version. Now I'm getting jerky video playback in BOTH iTunes and QT Pro (latest version). CPU use is very high but random; ditto with video playback (i.e., doesn't hang up on the same scene/time).
I had this issue a little over a year ago after updating iTunes to the then latest version. Got nowhere with Apple's "Service" texts. I played around with configs for a while and also re-installed iTunes. It has worked fine until yesterday (same symptoms as last time). As for the past "fix": nothing I can hang a hat on. Methinks Apple updated the version I re-installed with (tho' the version # was unchanged).

Lyric video lag after export

My student made a lyric video in after effects, used keyframes, several layers within several compositions which were then converted into one composition and layered with the song. Once he exported to .mov there were several problems. Music was not heard, video lagged, video duration was cut, and combination of all three problems with each export with various setting changes. Can you please tell us how to export with correct settings to avoid all of these problems in the end .mov?
Thanks,

It sounds like a few things are going on:
I'll assume the term "lag" more accurately means, "it's playing in fits & starts -- it's not smooth playback". Here's why:
FAQ: Why is my output file huge, and why doesn't it play back smoothly in a media player?
In there, you'll also find a link to make files that play back smoothly.
Why is there no audio? Probably because the audio check box wasn't checked in the Output Module in the AE Render Queue. Here's more:
FAQ: Why is there no audio (sound) in my output file?
And the most common reason for a too-short file is an incorrectly-adjusted Work Area in the comp being rendered. To fix this, open the comp. Hit the Home key. Hit the b key to set the beginning of the Work Area. Hit the End key. Hit the n key to set the end of the work area. The Work Area is now the same as the comp's duration. If the comp is longer than the intended file length, just adjust the end of the work area.

When watching fox news clips the video lags the audio as time progresses

I use firefox as my browser. While on Foxnews I watch their news video's and as time progresses through the video clip, the video lags the audio. It gets worse and worse over time. This happens on msnbc etc.

You can check for problems with current Flash plugin versions and try these:
*disable a possible RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin extension for Firefox and update the RealPlayer if installed
*disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Flash 11.3+ on Windows Vista and later)
*disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin

IPod video lag

Problem > my ipod video lags when it plays some movies. when i play music videos(only videos i have on ipod now) some tend to be aprox 1 sec delay. its odd when a singer says somthing and one second later the words follow on my headphones. this only happens to some of my videos (about half) while the other half are perfect. it will happen 100% of the time to those songs so its not a random ipod lag.
Process >i use "imTOO" video converter to get my files to mp4 format and run windows xp. while some videos lag others are fine with none. i tried multiple times to convert files(mpeg,avi) to mp4 with no programs running with still no success. i have also tried updating my ipod with no programs running with no success.
Question > so i was wondering if this has happen to anybody else out there with a gen5 video iPod? if so were you able to fix this problem and how did you do this? is it the program i am using? any help would be great. thanks.
video ipod Windows XP

this is the email that i have recieved from the support guy. hope this helps out because i havent tried it.
Dear user,
Please modify frame rate on the right panel of the main interface to correct it. The default value for this item is "Auto". Please enter a concrete number for it to have a try. You must highlight the file item in the program before modifying anything. I think you can try following numbers: 10, 15, 25, 29.97, 50 and 60. Thank you.
If you still have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me again.

G60 series Windows 8 NO SOUND VIDEO LAG

Recently upgraded my G60 from Windows 7 to Windows 8 and immediately experienced NO SOUND and VIDEO LAG issues. After searching online extensively I came to conclude that it's a driver issue that HP needs to resolve.
Please kindly reply my thread if fellow G60 owners are experiencing the same problem so HP would take this issue seriously and provide us a fix ASAP
Have a great day!

Hi:
HP will not be providing W8 drivers or support for any PC purchased prior to October 1, 2011.
