Video Playback After 3.1.2 Update

I have recently updated to 3.1.2 and now find that some videos, that played perfectly well before the update, are now pixelated and of a considerably lesser standard.
Is anyone else aware of this issue and is there any way around it?
Thanks in advance.

Your suggestion to reset and restore is much appreciated.
However, I wouldn't have labelled the video playback issue a bug before trying something so basic.
To review, just like to person who began this thread, when playing back videos on my 2G iPod touch using OS 3.1.2, any attempt to summon the video controls, after about the first 10 seconds of playback, does not work. The iPod offers no response to any gestures on the screen.
That the iPod's behavior (a) was not observed before the current OS, (b) has been experienced by other users with the same hardware and firmware combination, and (c) continues no matter how many times I reset and restore the device, sounds very much like a bug to me.
My apologies if I offended anyone with the question I posed at the end of my previous post, but it does seem that, in their rush to get stuff out to us, high-visibility glitches like this are becoming more frequent. Perhaps, with our ridiculously high expectations of Apple, we are in part to blame.

Slow video playback after reinstalling Geforce2 MX card

Ok, reinstalled (took out the 9200 card) my Geforce2Mx card and now everything is in super slow motion - video, scrolling, typing, opening and closing of apps, pull down menus, loading of web pages - everything. It's like being back on an old SE30 and now even that seems fast to what is happening now. What did I do wrong? Tried rebooting a few times and resetting pram with no better results.

Press the button near the battery on your logic board, it will reset the PMU, which might help.

Tried that also with no results. Also repaired permissions. What could have happened to the machine to do that?

Installed the modified Radeon ATI 9600 Pro for G5 Edition card and I still have the same slow video playback results. However when I boot up from another internal hard drive I do not have the video problems. Everything works just fine. Both of my hard drives had no video problems before screwing around with the ATI cards and now the one still has the problems with the video playback. This one also has Classic on it and Classic also runs slow. BTW I don't know if this has anything to do with it but when I ran a search result for "ATI" no files are installed on that 2nd hard drive which is playing video and loading pages with no problems. Would trashing all those ATI files on the slow drive do anything to help? Or is this just a coincidence?

Video playback post iPhone 2.0 update

Hey world,
crazy I'm not seeing this problem posted. Ideas anyone? Since updating my iPhone with the 2.0 update, my video playback is audio only with a black screen for video. What's curiouser is that podcasts play back just fine. The problem seems to be with video that I've personally encoded for the phone. All of this video was fine prior to the update, which leads me to think that encoding parameters have changed with the update. Does anyone know anything about this, and if so, what those new parameters might be?
Thanks

All of my stuff and itms stuff still works on my 3g iPhone, encoded in H.264.
I have used visualhub, handbrake and the elgato turbo H.264.
I have no idea why you and some others are having issues.

Program Monitor is Black, no video playback after installing new graphics card

I bought a PNY Nvidia Quadro 2000 graphics card a few days ago, and since it's been installed, I've been unable to watch video playback in my program, source or even reference monitor.
Similarly, If I designate one of my monitors soley for video playback, the screen is just black, and as the timecode advances on my timeline I only hear sound.
My project is using "Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration" for Premiere Pro CS6.0.1
I went from using one graphics card to using two graphics cards, and installed a third monitor. I've spent the last few days trying everything I could think of, I even uninstalled and re-installed premiere.
Hardware Specs:
Windows 7 Ultimate (64-bit)
HP Pavilion h8-1230z
AMD-FX8150 3.59Ghz 8 core processesor
16GB RAM
600W PS
EVGA Nvidia GeForce GTX 550Ti
PNY Nvidia Quadro 2000
I am using a PCI x16 for the Quadro 2000
I am using a PCI x1 slot w/x1-x16 adapter for the 550Ti
Could this be the problem?
Additional Information
Vectorscope, All scopes, YC Waveform - Display modes all work.
I downloaded the most recent Nvidia drivers for both of my cards.
I haven't received any error messages or had any problems in After Effects CS6, as video playback is working properly in my other adobe applications.

I am still building a new system, so currently I'm still using a 480. You can read all about my choices and progress here: Adobe Forums: Planning / building a new system. Part 1
There are 11 entries in the Benchmark Results that succesfully use the GTX 680, even though it is not 'supported'. They all use the 'hack'. However, the 680 has been added to the list of supported cards for AE, so it is only a matter of time before the 680 will be added to the list of supported cards for PR. Todd had made that clear. Now, when the 680 is added, it makes sense that the 670 will also be added. My guess is that both will be added in a short while.

No video preview after ati firepro driver update

good morning, after uninstalling old drivers I installed the latest firepro drivers 14.301.1019 . I now have no video playback in either preview window. (This is also happening in sony vegas 13.pro)
I have a windows 7 64 bit desk top PC with an ATI firepro V7900 card installed.
I can playback video files in other programs like TMPGENC mastering works, quick time player etc it just appears to be the editing programs that have lost the ability to playback files.
The files are a mixture of HDV files , ciniform avi and ciniform mov,
I tried a reinstall of sony vegas and that made no difference.
I have tried reinstalling the old drivers but it makes no difference.
Has anyone else seen this, or have a solution.
thanks John.

sounds like a driver problem since it happens in both programs. both have an option not to use the gpu for acceleration/rendering. i dont use amd graphics, but when you install is there an option to remove previous settings or clean install? you might need to uninstall all amd software, restart, and then reinstall. once in a while graphics drivers just dont install correctly in windows, and amd's software is known for its problems...

No sound on any video playback after 5-10 seconds

The sound on my second generation ipad seems to disappear after 5-10 seconds of watching any video playback, although sound works when i stream to my apple TV so I'm assuming its the device that's problematic. Any suggestions on how to resolve this issue and get sound from the ipad would be greatly appreciated.

Perform a "reset" on the device by pressing down and holding the home button and the sleep/wake button for up to 30secs. until you see a black screen with the Apple logo, then release.
Then test to see if it solved the problem.

Slow video playback after upgrading to ati 9200 card

Just upgraded my graphics card to the PCI ATI 9200 but now I have slower video playback than I had with the OEM Geforce AGP card. Does anyone know why this has happened? I thought I was gonna get better playback by upgrading

Hi,
Well, you have me scratching my head, that's a real puzzle.
Try an Open Firmware re-set, do the 're-set all' procedure:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=42642
BTW, ATI (and OWC) has just released this info on their 9600 video card, meaning it's not so good for G4's:
Knowledge Base
ATI Customer Care > Product Information > Specifications, Features, Comparisons >

"Quicksilver 2002" Power Mac G4 model

The Radeon 9600 Mac & PC Edition is not compatible with the "Quicksilver", "Quicksilver 2002" or the "Digital Audio" PowerMac G4. If a Radeon 9600 Mac & PC Edition board is installed in one of these systems the result is a blank display.

G5 crashes during iTunes video playback after Leopard install

I have a G5 1.6 single-processor running 10.5.1. Since I installed Leopard, I have been experiences frequent crashes during iTunes video playback (TV shows bought in the iTunes store). The crashes hang my whole system and require a restart by holding down the power button. The video itself sort of "blip-blip-blips" during the crash, but the mouse and keyboard are unresponsive, windows don't do anything, etc.
Any thoughts? Anyone else with this problem? Thanks!

Ever since I installed Leopard on my dual 2ghz G5, neither itunes nor quicktime player works. They both crash on launch. Maybe not the same issue, but I'm regretting the upgrade.

Help with video playback after updating to 3.1

Hi there, after updating to 3.1 on my 2nd gen iPod Touch, I restored it and loaded some videos I converted. On playing those files, the video would play normally until at a random point the video frame would freeze, while the audio continues to play. If I quit the video app and go back to the video, it would play again normally for maybe 1 minute and then the video frame would freeze again, while audio still continues.
These video files were working perfectly before I updated to 3.0, so I doubt that there is a problem with the files. Could someone suggest what I should do in this situation? Should I revert the firmware back to what it was before updating to 3.0?
Thanks in advance for your help!

I have the same issue, except that if I let it go on for a few secomds the video eventually catches up. I am also watching converted videos, and mine are in mp4 format. I haven't tried m4v yet but this is still a bug that Apple should fix.

No Video Playback after iTunes 10.5.1.42 update

Very frustrating! After updating iTunes (11/16/11), now I can´t watch any of my past video music purchases. I just get audio but no video at all! Anyone else having same problem?

I forgot to add that I can´t watch those videos anywhere (itunes viewer, iPad 2, Apple TV). I run Windows Vista.

Choppy iPhone video playback after upgrading to 10.5 + QuickTime 7.6.9

Hi,
I recently upgraded from 10.4 to 10.5 on my Powerbook G4. I used the "Archive and Install" option. After updating all software to the latest (10.5.8 OSX + 7.6.9 QuickTime), I noticed that the playback of the videos shot with my iPhone 3GS becomes extremely choppy (jumps combined with slow-mo). Based on the what's in "Previous System", I was using QT 7.6.4 with OS 10.4, which didn't have this playback issue.
I found several posts related to similar issues in the forum, and tried the following suggestions without success:
(1) removing all third party plug-ins from /Library/QuickTime;
(2) repair permissions with Disk Utility;
(3) installing Perian;
None of the above made a difference. Just for the heck of it, I tried "su" in Terminal and moved "QuickTimeH264.component" to "QuickTimeH264.component.bkp". Surprisingly this made the playback a lot better (all the iPhone clips are H264+ACC). So I'm guessing somehow the QT H264 component is not working properly for me, but what is QT using instead to play those videos after I renamed the component? It shouldn't be any of the third-party plug-ins since I tried removing all the third-party stuff at the same time, and the videos still played fine. I'd like to get to the bottom of this as I'm a little uneasy about re-naming the H264 component.
I hope someone more QT savvy can diagnose the problem based on what I've tried and make new suggestions. Granted my machine is a bit long in the tooth but it's still decently powered (1.67 GHz, 1.5 GB RAM, 320GB HDD) and the videos played fine before the "upgrade".
Is it worth doing a clean re-install of 10.5 as opposed to the "archive and install"? It's a pain obviously to have to re-install all the apps but I'm willing to try it if it could reasonably make a difference.
Thanks in advance!

The problem is that you moved your Mail application to a sub-folder in your Applications folder, and you are running an older copy of Mail.
From your crash report it shows your path is to a different folder then the default folder:
Path: /Applications/Mail Apps/Mail.app/Contents/MacOS/Mail
It also shows that you are not running the correct version of Mail (should be version 3.5 (930.3):
Version: 3.5 (929.4)
Check out this article:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2486
The short of it is that you may have two copies of Mail on your system. When 10.5.6 installed, it may not have updated Mail correctly. Look to see if you have another copy of Mail in your Applications folder, and if so run it and check it's version from the 'About Mail' menu option, it should be 3.5 (930.0). My recommendation is to remove any copy of mail that is not in /Applications (if there is no version of Mail in Applications, move the one you have in Mail Apps back) and run the Mail Update referenced in the article above.

Video problems after 10.0.5 update

Ever since I updated to Final Cut Pro X 10.0.5, all of my video has a green tinge at various places during the playback. Not sure how to correct it. It happens on my existing projects and new video I import. Here is an image of what I'm seeing, but it changes constantly upon movement within the clips. Any help would be appreciated. I tried transhing preferences, but this didn't help.
Thanks,
Steve

Thanks Tom. that was it. I had my display calibrated to match my photo prints, so switching it back to default solved the issue.
Thanks again!
Steve

Jerky video playback after installing adobe flash player for forefox

I switched to Firefox the other day from MSIE. I immediately had problems with jerky / intermittemnt delivery of video training. I noted that one of the causes could be the adobe flash player so i uninstalled the windows one and installed the firefox plugin. This made no difference.
Can't readily see anything on Google that makes immediate sense.
Any ideas welcome. Thank you.

I uninstalled version 13 and installed the version 12 as they suggested. Did not work.
On my computer now I have three accounts.
1. Mine - Flash Player version 13 originally worked but after updating (as was suggested by onscreen prompt) it did not work with Safari. Uninstalling and reinstalling Flash Playaer version 12 also did not work.
2. Second computer user can still see CNN video clips in Safari. 'This user did NOT install the update to version 13.
3. Guest accoount still can see CNN video clips in Safari.
Any suggestions how to get back to the original configuration on my account. Unfortunately, I did not know about Time Machine and did not have it set up (have subsequently tried to set it up but cannot seem to be able to select a backup disk).
Any suggestions appreciated.

No video playback after 20 minutes of editing with

Hello,
I have problem with Premiere CS6, which is driving me insane. After around 20 minutes of editing, Premiere stops showing me any video content. I can still interact with the program, the only thing that doesn't work is viewing clips and interacting with them in the timeline. The only things I see are grey boxes.
After quitting Premiere I cannot immediatly restart it, because it stays forever at "Loading ExporterQuickTimeHost.prm". It is also notable that after quitting Premiere CS6 the application stays in the task manager und is not killable. I read that "Adobe QT32 Server.exe" (which is also still running and is not killable after quitting Premiere) might be the issue but I didn't find a way to fix the problem.
I am working on Windows 7 64-bit machine with DNxHD enocoded files in a mov-wrapper. I reinstalled Quicktime (newest version) but the problem remains.
Any suggestions?

Unfortunatly it didn't help. Playback froze up on me again a minute ago. The DNxHD files I am using contain 6 audio tracks, which Premiere doesn't recognize (it only displays one track) and it also freezes up, when it's automatically creating peak files. Maybe the problem has something to do with that?
