Unable to shuffle Music Video added to Playlist in iTunes

I am unable to shuffle music videos added to iTunes Playlist. I want to listen songs present in playlist with a random selection instead of a sequential playback. Also when I activate the shuffle button while playing videos the playback stops after completion of the current track.
So please suggest a way out.
Thanks

If the iPad works the same way as the iPhone, I found a workaround, created a playlist in my music (instead of videos), added my videos to this playlist then play everything off the 'Music' app rather than the 'Videos' on my iPhone. Works perfectly for me, can shuffle, loop...

  • Unable to shuffle music videos in IOS5

    Hi, I just downloaded IOS5 to my iPhone and all my music videos were put into a new folder called "Videos", but there is no shuffle function, so now I can't shuffle my music videos like I used to do and once and they won't automatically go onto the next song either, so I have to keep picking a new song.  Very frustrating.  Apple.... please make shuffling available in videos, otherwise I don't like it.  I am now going to try and restore my phone back to the previous version.  Argh!!!

  • How do I get Music Video's to play in iTunes on iPad Mini with Shuffle option on Playlists (it's only playing the music not video's)?

    Hi. I have got Music Video's on iPad Mini on a Playlist on iTunes. When I use 'shuffle' option the audio of the track is heard but no video is played (only a 'still' from the video). When using the Video option on the desktop, plays videos but does not allow you to 'playlist' them or shuffle them. I can shuffle Music Video playlist on iPhone and on PC. So why not on iPad Mini. Can someone help? Thanks

    There does not appear to ba a facilty for this on the iPad. However there are a number of apps that will allow you to create and play video playlists. Try VP Lite which is free.

  • Shuffle music videos using front row

    Hello, I just can´t figure it out, can I shuffle music videos using front row?
    MAc mini   Mac OS X (10.4.10)  

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    I don't think anyone's figured out how to do that. Music and music playlists from iTunes are played through iTunes. However, even if your video is inside iTunes the video is played through Front Row using the QuickTime Player application, not iTunes. Since the QuickTime Player application is not reading playlists from iTunes and has no "shuffle" option of its own, I don't think it can be done. If you do make a playlist in iTunes that has videos on it, all you get is the audio and a black screen when they're played with iTunes.
    I would suggest you send Apple some Mac OS X feedback and let them know you'd like to see an option like this.

  • Unable to view music videos in iTunes on mac

    I have iTunes on a G5 Mac Pro It is on the latest version of 10.5 with the most recent update to iTunes. I am unable to view music videos many of which I purchased from the iTMS or came with music CD's as extras some are m4v others are mp4.
    If on import I set the option for format as being Music Video I cannot get the videa to launch double clicking on the video gives a picture in the album cover window but does not launch the video viewer nor does the video play. I dont often view  music videos just Movies or TV Shows and last time I did I recall Music Videos playing they opened in a seperate window and there was once a setting in preferences where you could choose if a video launched in a new window or used on in iTunes.
    I have used the info window to change the video type to standard movie and then going back to the file in iTunes double clicking launches the video in full screen mode. Once I then set back to Music Video it reverts to refusing to play.
    In any format the file plays in Quicktime
    Any suggestions pointing to where the problem may lie would be welcome. I cant see any relevant settings to set how a video displays in either menus or Preferences other than ensuring video window stays on top. It maybe in one of the many upgrades this Mac and iTunes has had the settings have been corrupted.

    They will not show up in a separete category in iTunes. This is because the videos will show up as songs so that you can play the audio portion of a video without the video. Try it.

  • Shuffle music videos in Apple TV 2??

    Does enyone know if apple tv 2 has the option to shuffle music videos played form the iPad 2?
    I've red some discussions from 2008 where they said that apple tv was able to shuffle videos by holding the play/pause button, but I'm trying to do it and it doesn't work.
    Any information would be highly appreciated!!!
    Thanks!

    Been asking for this feature since I picked one up. Just keep using the feedback form... maybe they'll listen...

  • I am still having problems with my music videos freezing (all purchased from iTunes) since the update.  Have restarted, rebooted etc. and it is worse than before.  Help!  Spent a lot of money on these and they won't play properly.

    I am still having problems with my music videos freezing (all purchased on iTunes) since the update.  The first day of the update, no problems...played 6 hours of music videos and no freezing.  Today...every single video froze!!! So frustrating!  I rebooted, restarted, powered down and no help.   I would appreciate any suggestions.  Thanks.

    I don't know how to do this without using a mouse point.
    This may help, http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000542.htm
    As for question #2, you call tell how iTunes is sorting songs by the up or down arrow next to a header name.
    Even the original order that the songs were entered or date added or last played can be sorted.
    Much easier with a mouse or touch pad.

  • Certain music videos will not play in iTunes.  The music plays fine but not the video.  No picture.

    Certain music videos will not play in iTunes.  The music plays fine but not the video.  No picture.  Same with the iPod.  Other videos in the library play fine. Help.

    Regular playlists vs smart playlist does not make a difference. What I noticed is that some videos create this behavior and some not. I created 2 videos and 2 music playlists, one with 2 songs and 2 videos (that I encoded myself with Handbrake). Another list with 2 videos and 2 songs, videos encoded with Handbrake, but that I noticed they triggered the behavior. The first playlist played fine, with no problems. The second one, created the problem. When I look at the video, it is the same type of video (bit rate, audio channels, etc...) I don't see why it would do that.
    Later I will test: playing those videos in question and then selecting songs to see if they play.

  • I accidentally deleted the "Recently Added" default playlist from iTunes. Any way to recover and reinstall it?

    I accidentally deleted the "Recently Added" default playlist from iTunes. Any way to recover and reinstall it?

    File > New Smart Playlist
    Call it "Recently Added" and make the rule that date added is in the last 2 weeks (or your preference for "recent").

  • How do you import music videos from a dvd into iTunes?

    I have got a music cd and includs a music dvd. I want the music videos to be imported into iTunes so I can watch them on my iPod touch. How do I do this?

    I had a friend who got a dual-format music album on DVD of the band Chicago for his birthday. He didn't have a system that could play the remixed 5.1 surround sound version on the DVD, but he could play it back in his Mac OS X on the DVD player in good old stereo. However, he wanted a copy he could play in his car CD player.
    So I used Audio Hijack to record the output of the DVD played back as stereo through the Apple DVD player in Mac OS X. I had Audio Hijacj write the output to the hard drive as AIFF 16-bit 44.1KHz stereo. Then I used iTunes to burn it to a CD.
    Of course it took 45 minutes to make a recording from a 45-minute audio program; it happened in real-time.
    (This was all perfectly legal because he owns the DVD and he's using the CD recording as a backup audio copy for his own personal use--basically like ripping a CD you own for use in your iPod).
    I did an a/b comparison between the original DVD and the AIFF recording I had generated, and I was pleasantly surprised by its good quality.
    Since then I've been an Audio Hijack fan.

    From your OLD computer...
    Copy your ENTIRE iTunes FOLDER to an External Drive... and then from the External Drive to your New Computer..

  • Is there a way to shuffle music videos on the Touch?

    The Touch is my first video iPod, and I was shocked to see I can't shuffle my videos. I just bought a slew of music videos, and I would like to be able to organize them into playlists and shuffle those, just like my songs. Right now I can only play one video at a time, then I have to manually go back and select another video.
    Am I missing something? Or will this functionality be added in a future software update? Playing videos just isn't very convenient or enjoyable at all with the current lack of shuffle capability. Anyone else feel the same, or am I all alone on this?

    Have done the feedback thing, and hopefully others have as well. Any idea if this functionality of being able to organize playlists of your music videos and play them as such is going to be be possible in any upcoming software upgrade?
    I have actually gone ahead and got the universal dock and component cables, so I can view my music videos on my big screen TV and sound through my stereo and speakers. Sure would be nice to be able to allow a playlist of videos to continually play nonstop without having to go to the Touch after the conclsusion of each single video and select the next one to play.

  • Shuffle music videos in landscape

    IOS 7 - I created a playlist with just music videos.  When it plays the videos can only be viewed in portrait mode.  If you rotate the phone (5) to landscape the album art pops up.  Excuse me Apple video is viewed in landscape mode.  Additionally, my music videos are checked no for skip when shuffling.  In IOS 6 the video would pop up when it came to a video, now it just shows the album view in landscape mode.  Major disapointment.

    I drove a cab for a year.  I had my iPod 1g mounted between the two sun visors. I played music videos (audio through  the cab speakers) for my passengers at night.  THEY LOVED IT!  That was 2009-2010.  With that function gone, I lost a lot of tips.  I understand Music Videos are VIDEOS as one lummox keeps stating, but in iTunes, you could load an entire playlist of music videos and play them in landscape.  You had all the same options as video - continue where last left off, etc...  It's a function that earned me twice as many tips because I could take requests (I have a lot of music videos) from drunk passengers that liked watching the videos.  APPLE BRING THIS FUNCTION BACK!
    As of IOS8 (8.1.2) this is still not happening
