Video Podcast Playback Issue

I am having trouble with downloaded podcasts showing "This movie format is not supported" when I try to play the successfully downloaded video podcast on my iPhone 3G. These movies are .mov QuickTime files, but they will not play in the iPhone's iPod. I am running software version 2.2 on my iPhone. Is this a bug or does the iPhone's iPod not recognize Apple's own movie codec?

There have been several issues with the "In Rainbows" video podcasts. Originally (first week of December, 2007), they were released as (thumbs_down versions), which were huge files and had transfer errors (iTunes would eventually stop downloading after hours of hanging time...). I submitted feedback to iTunes which forwarded it to Radiohead. Since then, the files download perfectly, however the only podcast that is ipod ready is the "In Rainbows" Promo episode. The podcasts need to be MP4 or M4V files. Since Radiohead's revision to their podcast files in mid-December, the files are all MOV files, which will play great within iTunes but need to be converted to play on ipods. Kind of ruins the idea of a video podcast when it can't sync with ipods without some kind of funny business...
The transfer should work fine, but I wouldn't doubt if there are issues with the latest podcast files posted online (by the band or whoever handles this sort of thing). One suggestion is to search for SCOTCH MIST: A FILM WITH RADIOHEAD IN IT. This is the final video (52 minutes) by Radiohead that combines all of the released podcast files and includes other video. It is on youtube as of midnight, Jan. 1. Radiohead released this final video project in celebration for the New Year.
Enjoy.

  • Audio vs. video podcast playback

    At the end of watching a video podcast I am returned to the episode menu of the podcast I just watched. At the end of listening to an audio podcast I am returned to the main (iPod) menu.
    Is there any way to make audio podcast playback act like video podcast playback (meaning return me to the episode menu instead of the main menu)?

  • Video Podcast Playback Problem

    I have an issue where a single video podcast cannot be found by the iPod app on my iPhone.
    + The video Podcast is downloaded to my PowerBook's iTunes Podcast library and will play from there.
    + The video podcast in question is checked.
    + The iTunes and iPhones settings are correct, other video podcasts download and play.
    + When I sync the iPhone I can see the podcast is being downloaded to my iPhone in iTunes.
    + I've tried resubscribing and have looked at the file details on my PowerBook and it doesn't differ from any other video podcast.
    The problem is that when I open the iPod app on the iPhone and click Podcasts the podcast is not listed. It is only true for this one podcast. Others, like The Onion video podcast are listed and play.
    Searching the iPhone from the top level the iPhone finds the video podcast by name so it is for sure on the phone. Clicking on it starts playback like any other video podcast, but there is only a blank screen.
    One workaround I found was to create a playlist on my PowerBook that contains podcasts. If I do this then the podcast can be played on the iPhone from this playlist and from the top level search. This is a workaround though and I would like to understand why the iPod app can't seem to find this one podcast.
    Thank you for your help.

    This problem was fixed with the iPhone 3.1 software release. For those who are curious the video podcasts that were not showing up were from SnapStream's Beyond TV.

  • Nokia Lumia 1520 Video recording/playback issues.

    I seem to have issues with video recording. Video seems to have some pause "still" effects when taking video and playback in phone shows those stops very clearly as it freezes for while and jumps many seconds forward.
    When I play same file in PC with video player the video plays better but still I can manage to see some small Glitch in video like my phone did stop recoding for some frames.  I have been using SD card and phone memory and both have same problem.

    No solution so far and it is my wife phone so haven't have much reason to play with it find solution. She only takes photos anyway.
    This current phone has already broke down 2 sim cards also or wireless charging did brake those not sure after stop using wireless charging 3rd sim card have been fine.
    someday when have I feeling to take this phone to warranty service I will try wireless charging again.

  • Video Podcast Audio Issue

    Alright, last night I downloaded the "In Rainbows" video podcasts to my computer. I first tried dragging them onto my Classic 80GB but they weren't iPod compatible. So I highlighted each one of them, and converted them for my iPod. After a good hour they were finished and I dragged them to my iPod.
    Here's the problem. When I watched them later that night on my iPod, the audio didn't work and cut in and out. The video seemed fine but the audio was basically a mess. So this morning I checked my converted podcasts in my video section only to find that they were in the same shape as the ones on my iPod. I tried re-converting them and I got the same results. I tried other podcasts and haven't gotten the same problem...someone please help me!

  • Videos App Playback Issues (Out of Sync)

    Hi,
    As of last night I've been experiencing issues with playback in the Videos app on my iPad. It's an iPad4 with the most recent software update, which has been done for a while.
    The issue: when playing a video in the Videos app (purchased from iTunes) on the iPad (so not using AirPlay) the video very rapidly begins to lag behind the audio. It becomes jerky and speeds up and then returns to normal speed when it catches up with the audio and then falls immediately behind again. If I try to exit the app when it happens it freezes the iPad (although after waiting a while it will eventually exit, it's just a looooong lag).
    It's not a buffering issue as the internet connection is fine and the video playback from other apps (YouTube, NowTV, etc) are all fine.
    It's driving me mad - does anyone have any suggestions? I've obviously tried closing all apps, restarting the iPad, etc.
    Ta muchly,

    Update: This is still happening - however these same episode files play perfectly fine through AppleTV (not AirPlay - but accessing direct through the Apple TV box).
    Any ideas folks? I presume the problem is with the Videos App or the iPad (although all other video-related apps still work perfectly fine).

  • Video editing & playback issues: Adobe Premiere Elements 8

    Hello all,
    I have made several attempts at transfering HD video  files from my camcorder to my PC and then editing.
    When I try to play the transferred file, it is a little choppy and then gets worse as I edit it.
    Here are my specs/config:
    System:
    HP Pavilion a6720y
    Windows Vista 64 bit
    NVIDIA GeForce GT 440
    AMD Phenon 9550 Quad Core 2.2Ghz
    6GB RAM
    640GB SATA drive, 7200 rpm
    Camera:
    Sony HDR-XR150
    Editing Software:
    Adobe Premiere Elements 8
    I copy the video files from the camcorder to the computer via USB 2.0.
    When I connect the camera directly to the TV the video plays without any issues.  So I know the AVCHD files are "good" and I suspect they are also possibly "good" on my hard drive, but just cannot be played or edited appropriately for some reason.
    One input I received was that due to the nature of AVCHD files, I should convert the video to "I-frame codec" and then edit.  Can Adobe Premiere Elements do this?
    Any other thoughts/ideas?
    Thanks for any help.

    When I create a project on #2 drive, the various work files follow,
    so my boot drive is not used for the media cache folder and files

    You are a music conductor, with a baton that you use to point to various parts of the orchestra... this is like Windows pointing to various parts of the hard drive to do Windows housekeeping or to load program segments for various functions
    Now, at the same time and with the same hand... while still using the baton to conduct the orchestra... pick up a bow and play a fiddle... this would be doing something with your video file at the same time as all the other work
    You as a person cannot do both at the same time with the same hand
    A computer is a LITTLE better, in that it can switch from one kind of task to another very quickly... but not quickly enough for EASY video editing
    You need AT LEAST two hard drives (separate drives, never a partition http://forums.adobe.com/thread/650708 for more) with Windows (or Mac OS) and software on your boot drive, and video files on a 2nd drive so the boot drive is not slowed down by trying to do everything
    I find that the three drives I use work very well for me, for editing AVCHD video... some people use a 4th drive, so video INPUT files are on drive three and all OUTPUT files are on drive four... I only bought a mid-tower case instead of a full tower case (my bad... but had to fit in the space available on my office desk!) so I use the three drives that will fit
    Depending on your exact hardware (motherboard brand & model AND USB2 enclosure brand & model AND external hard drive brand & model) AND the type of video file, you may... or may NOT... be able to use an external USB2 hard drive for SD (Standard Definition) video editing

  • MPEG-4 video file playback issue

    I have ripped a couple of DVDs into MPEG 4 to watch on my Macbook. The first time I accessed one I put the headphones on but it was unwatchable - the picture and sound were out of sync. A while later I decide to poke around this issue and found that the movie played just fine until I put the headphones in ! I then had to cancel playback remove headphones then re-start the movie. Any-one got an idea on what's happening? Thanks.

  • Video Podcast Playback

    Hi, downloaded an Extras episode from i-tunes which started to play ok and i was able to view the programme. When I went back to it a couple of days later the video would not play - I only had sound and a picture clip showing on screen. Also, as the podcasts played back the sound was jumping.
    Any help appreciated, thanks.

    Hi, thanks for your response. The setting was already as you said. The podcast disappears from the ipod once you have viewed even a little of it - even though i have it set to 'keep all episodes'. Couldn't check if the Extras episode was in the video section as it seems to have disappeared - it is showing in itunes under 'recently added' but i can't find it on my ipod. HELP please!

  • Video Podcasts streaming window size problem since upgrade to 9.0.3

    Since the upgrade to 9.0.3 on Windows Vista SP2 when I go to the iTunes store and play a video podcast (Tekzilla, ABC news, etc.), a small window opens up without any controls to stop/start, show time played, expand window, etc. It seems the play must be initiated from a small button to the right of the specific podcast, not the play button on the upper left as before.
    I have not found a way to expand the small window to full screen as worked before.
    I have played with the options on the iTunes and tried Cntl + F, 1, 2, etc. Set the view option to full screen, etc. In short, every option that I can think of.
    I have tried large quicktime and HD podcasts with the same result.
    If I download the podcast, as opposed to steaming the podcast; and then highlight and hit the upper left play button, the podcast plays full screen and everything works as before (previously streaming and download playing worked the same).
    I have a 6 MB DSL connection which works fine for Hulu, etc. and previously worked fine for full screen video podcast playback in iTunes. I am using a core 2 T5500 CPU with Vista SP2. This machine is a couple years old but is still relatively quick for non-gaming use.
    Has iTunes changed? Is there a setting that I need to reset?

    Likewise. I started having the problem before 9.03. The upgrade helped for a couple of days, then it started happening again. And then I upgraded to 9.1, and not only do I have to log in and agree to the settings page EVERY SINGLE TIME I LOG IN but the "remember password" box is now completely missing.
    Any time I have iPhone apps to update, I have to click on "download all", which then pops up the login box. I enter my password, click on OK to agree that my settings are OK, then I have to click on "download all a second time.
    This is getting very annoying.

  • IOS 4 - Podcast playback failure

    Just upgraded to iOS4 and the iPod app is buggy as h*ll. I found the topic suggesting to resync with iTunes and so I did (on my iMac). One benefit of this was that at least it showed me my podcasts again on my iPhone (which had magically disappeared). It seems to have stopped crashing the iPod app as well.
    But playback is still incredibly buggy. When I start playback, it does not show the length of the podcast on the timeline (it just shows 0:00). At the same time, I'm not able to move the slider across the timeline. This holds true for at least two different podcasts downloaded from iTunes.
    Any suggestions other than hoping that Apple will quickly release a patch?

    The podcast playback issue seems to be related to the last release of IOS4. Prior to IOS4's release I didn't have any issue of playback with (audio) podcasts directly downloading onto my iPhone 3GS. However, I have discovered a work around for iPhone users, which may or may not work with the iPod touch since I haven't tested it.
    The problem I discovered is that audio podcasts downloaded to the iPhone directly (not synced with iTunes on your computer) will download fine, however, when attempting to access the downloaded podcasts within the iPod app function of the iPhone it will immediately crash it. I found a solution that if you access the podcast from within the iTunes app section of your iPhone they will stream and play just fine. Hit the iTunes button on your iPhone, select the search function at the bottom, type in the podcast name you are looking for. Select it and hit the Download button. Once it finishes downloading you can then go back into the iTunes search function and look up the podcast again (it should still be listed in your search field) you will then see that the podcast you have downloaded is available to play. Click on it and it will then play without problems.
    It's strange though that I'm unable to play the podcast through the iPod application on the iPhone. Navigating to the iPod application, selecting "More" at the bottom, selecting "Podcasts," shows the downloaded audio episodes. If you attempt to access the audio podcast from this interface it immediately crashes and takes you back to the iPhone desktop.
    This definitely is a coding bug in the new IOS4 and needs to be addressed by Apple in it's next patch.

  • Download and playback of video podcasts and vodcasts

    Hi Folks,
    I have looked at the Classic features manual, looking for info on downloading *video podcasts* and Vodcasts into itunes, and playing them in ipod Classic. I couldn't get from the manual what I needed to understand the video issue . Does anyone have any advice, anything that I should know, or do, before downloading and playing these two types of video? I have read bits here and there about having to chang format of videos for successful download to itunes and playback on Classic. I am not techy enough to understand. (Just as info, I downloaded "Best of YouTube." It promptly locked itunes forever. I couldn't even uninstall itunes and reinstall. I had to create another User on my computer, in order to get itunes again.)
    Questions:
    1) Do I have to do some sort of conversion to download and play *video podcasts* and Vodcasts?
    2) Are *video podcasts* different from Vodcasts? Or are they the same format--just named differently? Is there anything that I need to do differently in the download process and playback of these two types of video? (FYI--The Bill Moyers show on PBS is where I was confronted with the *Vodcast.
    Thank you
    Randy

    you don't need additional tools to load the podcast or video podcast to your ipod, excepting an ipod manager like itunes, floola or juice.
    Just provide the feed into the ipod manager that you use and you are done. Probably the simplest option is to go with itunes. You need an internet connection though.

    EDIT: Well, Juice is not really an ipod manager, but a podcast manager/receiver

  • WINDOWS VISTA ITUNES VIDEO PLAYBACK ISSUE!!!!!! AAHHHHHHH!!! HELP!!!!!!!!!!

    am using a Dell XPS GEN 5 PC with Windows Vista Premium Edition as the current OS installed. I have latested up date for Itunes and QuickTime (7.1.6) Installed. I have recently bought and downloaded 3 of the Original Star Trek Tv Shows from Itunes. When I try and play one of them, they don't work. The Screen comes up, the show starts, then stops. Sometimes the sound keeps on playing, and then stops. Sometimes it just dosent even come on. I'm guessing (as a highly advanced Windows PC User) That this ia a "video/playback issue, related to a Apple/Vista Compatibility problem. I would like help solving this problem.

    hi slideaway!
    my computer has a right proper meltdown, switching itself off and restarting to a "Windows has recovered from a serious error" sort of message.
    good lord. are you getting any sort of blue screen? if so, what numerical and text codes are you getting with it? (ie 0x[zeros/letters/numbers] CAPSANDUNDERSCORES)
    here's a reference on the sorts of things i'm asking about:
    Troubleshooting Windows Stop Messages
    if you're not seeing a blue screen (or just a flash of one), we can use this technique to make hidden blue screens appear for us:
    1) Open your system control panel (Start->Control Panels->System).
    2) Select the "Advanced" tab.
    3) Click the "Startup and Recover" section's "Settings" button
    4) Verify that under "System Failure" the "Automatically restart" checkbox is not checked.

  • Video podcasts have jerky playback on my iPod nano 4G

    I've been enjoying Good Game video podcasts on my 4G iPod nano for several months:
    http://www.abc.net.au/tv/goodgame/
    About a month ago, the videos started stuttering badly every few seconds.
    I asked ABC TV is they changed something about how they encode the videos, and they say they haven't.
    Is it possible that one of the iTunes updates has changed video playback so my iPod nano can no longer cope with decoding the video stream?
    Does anyone know if there is a fix for this problem?
    Cheers,
    m.

    Have you reconnected your iPod since listening to the podcasts in question? If not, then you need to do that so that the iPod can update. The podcasts won't delete from the iPod itself after you listen to them until it is updated. (Someone correct me if I am wrong)
