Video's freeze but keep playing!

I've been watching a lot of video's on my iPad 2 both on safari and in apps such as Amazon prime but they keep freezing. The video will keep playing but the picture freezes and there's no sound! Occasionally it will sort itself out and start playing again, skipping a bit but most of the time I have to restart. It's really frustrating and I can't seem to find a solution online. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thank you for your help, I really appreciate it!

I don't know what suggestions that you looked for online or what troubleshooting steps that you have tried, but give these basic steps a try if you haven't already done so.
Close all apps, and reset your iPad. Clear Safari as well.
Settings>Safari>Clear History and Website Data.
Now close all apps. In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Next, reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
If that did not help, try this. Reset all settings. You will not lose any data, but most of the device settings will have to be entered in the settings app again. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all Settings.

  • Premiere cc 14 video is freezing but audio plays?  Mac

    I am in OS 10.9.3  3.5ghz intel for i7 iMac  32 gb memory, and timeline playback works for a while and then freezes, but audio continues to play.  This is really slowing down the edit.  Help Please? !

    If Safari is the only browser you are having problems with dealing with QT see if the following is of any help:
    To fix a QT related problem w/Safari, quit Safari & look in the /Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder (this is the Library folder at the root level of your HD, not the one inside your Users/user name folder).
    Try removing the VLC Plugin.plugin (if you have it) & QT Plugin.plugin files from this folder, & then relaunch Safari. If the problem isn’t fixed, a different plug-in may be to blame. Keep removing files from this folder (start with any third-party plug-ins that are present) until the problem disappears.
    Replace the plug-ins that don’t cause any problems.

  • Video freezes, audio keeps playing always on main monitor

    I just installed FCS2 on my 1.5GHz powerbook G4, everything works perfectly fine until I try to play any video files in the viewer or the canvas.

I just upgraded my ram to 1.25 gb and im running mac osx 10.4.11. Ive tried reinstalling, trashing preferences and cache, messing around with every setting I could think of...PLEASE HELP!!!

    What format is your video?
    Are the appropriate Easy Setup and Sequence Settings selected?
    Where is the source material located?

  • Youtube video is blank,but audio played well. other browser such as chrome got no problem with it. FF Developer Edition.

    - youtube video just blank, but audio is there. tried both embedded in facebook or other website, and at youtube.com. both same result.
    - facebook video played just fine
    - other browser played just fine.. no problem at all..
    - i'm on firefox developer edition
    - tried installing latest flash update, still the same result.

    This problem can be resolved by disabling hardware acceleration in your Flash Player settings. (See [[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems|this article]] for more information on using the Flash plugin in Firefox).
    To disable hardware acceleration in Flash Player:
    #Go to this [http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues Adobe Flash Player Help page].
    #Right-click on the Flash Player logo on that page.
    #Click on '''Settings''' in the context menu. The Adobe Flash Player Settings screen will open.
    # Click on the icon at the bottom-left of the Adobe Flash Player Settings window to open the Display panel. <br/> <br/>[[Image:fpSettings1.PNG]] <br/>
    # Remove the check mark from '''Enable hardware acceleration'''.
    # Click '''Close''' to close the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window.
    # Restart Firefox.
    This [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html Flash Player Help - Display Settings page] has more information on Flash Player hardware acceleration, if you're interested.
    Does this solve the problem? Let us know.

  • PPro14CC - Playback freeze, audio keeps playing (OS X, iMac)

    I think this is might be a similar issue to what others are experiencing, but the symptoms are unique so I'm hoping someone has found a possible solution by now?
    One of our editors has been working on a large project (10 HD promo spots, at least 100GB of raw footage from Canon C300) and experiencing at least 4 crashes per day. And by "crash" I mean that CC14 stops playback -- the Program monitor freezes -- while the audio keeps playing. In some cases he can switch out to the Finder and then back to CC14 to stop the playback, and while he is able to hit "Save" and "Quit" the Program monitor never unfreezes. Some times though he gets the Beachball of Death and has to force quit everything, and curiously the timeline audio still plays out of the speakers after CC14 has quit and the machine is waiting to restart. On at least one occasion he got a major error and PPro created a new project file after closing down. VERY frustrating.
    From what he's told me (I haven't been working alongside him that closely), the freeze ONLY happens when the playhead hits a clip that has filters or effects applied. Right now he's mostly doing a picture-in-picture effect with a beveled edge filter applied to the smaller window, and 3-way color correction on other clips.
    For troubleshooting I focused on the graphics card first. The iMac has a Geforce 780 and was originally running with OpenCL so I downloaded the latest CUDA driver and switched to that but it made no difference. Turning OFF the hardware acceleration just made everything sluggish. I also repaired permissions on the drive. I'm hesitant to do anything too major while he's still working so please let me know if trashing prefs and/or reinstalling will wreck anything in the project or if you would recommend importing everything into a new one.
    Brand new 27" iMac (non-Retina), 32GB ram, latest Yosemite (10.10) and CC14 versions, no plugins installed, no fancy system extensions or antivirus software. OWC Thunderbay RAID, M-Audio speakers, 2nd monitor is 42" Plasma TV via mini-Displayport-to-HMDI adapter in 2nd Thunderbolt port.
    TIA, JVK

    UPDATE:
    We switched the Sequence Settings Preview to Quicktime>ProRes from I-frame MPEG, and it seems to be running better. Will update again if it fails to produce consistent results. Hope this helps somebody else!

  • AME Thumbnail Freezes, but keeps "encoding"

    Hey everybody, I'll try to be as detailed as possible. If you need any more info, ask away! This is starting to get frustrating.
    I'm editing a project shot on Red Epic using the RAW .R3D 5K files. In my initial editing, I changed both the scaling as well as the speed/duration on some of the shots. I then sent the project off to the colorist who used DaVinci Resolve to color correct the footage. He then exported the individual clips as .MOV using the GoPro Cineform codec and gave them back to me.
    I then took those clips and overlayed them to match the original footage. Since DaVince reset the scaling and speed/duration changes, I had to redo these.
    So at the moment I'm trying to export an H.264 file at 720p for the sound editor to use as reference for mixing, but everytime I try to encode it with AME it keeps getting stuck, so to speak, around the first clip with a speed/duration change. This always happens around 27 minutes into encoding.
    Basically what happens is the encoding bar and the thumbnail freeze, but the elapsed time keeps counting and the time remaining keeps going up and up. If I let it sit for hours it won't do anything.
    Sometimes it'll get stuck just before the adjusted clip, sometimes it'll get stuck during it, and sometimes it'll get stuck right after it; but always in that area.
    I look at Activity Monitor (using a Mac with new OS X Mavericks) and the Adobe QT32 Server is always in red text and "not responding"
    If I try to export straight from Premiere Pro, I get an "Error Compiling Movie" with no further explanaition.
    I'm using AME 6.0.2 and when I open the updater, there are no updates for it.
    I have successfully exported this before in the H.264 codec, but I'm sure this was BEFORE I updated to OS X Mavericks and don't know if that's the culprit.
    Any ideas?

    I'd need to transfer everything onto the local drive, which could take some time, but I should be able to. The external drive (G-Raid, Raid 0, 7200 RPM) is connected via Firewire 800 to my iMac. I also have everything backed up on a LaCie drive, but it wouldn't be very optimal to work off of it.
    Here is some more information based on the things I did/tried today. Hopefully I can explain this clearly...
    To begin, I essentially have 3 sequence:
    Sequence 1 contains the RAW uncolored .R3D files, which have been edited.
    Sequence 2 contains the .mov colored files matching the edits on Sequence 1
    Sequence 3 contains a counting leader, sequence 2 (on the timeline), then the closing credits.
    The sequence I'm trying to export is sequence 3. If I tried to export it through PPro, I got an "Error Compiling Movie" message with no explaination. If I tried to use AME, it does what I previously described. If I tried to export sequence 2, I had the same results in both PPro and AME. If I tried to export sequence 1, it would complete the export but change the .mp4 to an unplayable .m4v for some reason.
    I felt like this problem was stemming from PPro, so I decided to uninstall/reinstall it. After the reinstall, I tried sequence 3 again in AME with the same results. I then rendered preview files of all the 5K clips on sequence 2. After I did this, I successfully exported sequence 2 as an H.264 file with all the settings I was trying. Finally!
    Now on sequence 3 I have sequence 2 placed on the timeline, mainly for ease and organization. Even though I rendered preview files of all the clips in sequence 2, it still has a red bar above sequence 2 on the sequence 3 timeline indicating there are no preview files. So I decided to do the same thing and render the preview files. However, this time when I tried I got the "Error Compiling Movie" error again.
    The thing that's most frustrating is that I've rendered out this sequence 3 multiple times with no issue. Whenever the sound guy sends me a new audio file I like to plug it in and export it so I can watch it without my computer trying to play catch up. He needs a version of the short film with credits, which is what I'm trying to export for him, but all these problems started.
    Sorry. This is an AME board and I'm crossing into PPro territory now.

  • Video clip / Jingle that keeps playing

    Delete the SMS, delete the ringtone on your device and Do a simple reboot on the BlackBerry in this manner:
    With the BlackBerry device POWERED ON, remove the battery for a minute, and then reinsert the battery to reboot. A reboot in this manner is prescirbed for most gltiches and operating system errors, and you will lose no data on the device doing this.

  • Youtube videos freeze, audio keeps playing. As long as I keep moving my cursor, it play ok. What's wrong?

    This seems to happen on all Youtube video's I play. I don't know about other videos because I seldom view any others. When the video freeze happens the download bar is always ahead of the play bar so I don't think download is the problem. However, when the freeze happens, the download bar stops moving. When the play bar catches up to the download bar, the audio stops also. If I move my cursor, the video and audio start playing again. As long as I keep my cursor moving, the video plays fine. I am using Firefox 18.0.1. Computer is an HP dv6-1350us with dual processors. OS is Windows 7. I also use Chrome at times and the freeze doesn't happen on Chrome.

    hello vearlbible, maybe it's an issue with the protected mode in the flash plugin - please go trough the troubleshooting steps provided in the following help document by adobe: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1018071
    or as an alternative you could try [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/flash-113-crashes#w_solution-2-downgrade-to-flash-10-3 downgrading to flash 10.3] (which is still supported) & see if this solves the issue.

  • No video in monitor,but, audio plays when playing timeline CS5.5.1

    In one sequence only, no video plays in monitor, but, audio is heard. What have I done ?
    The same H.264 mov clips when set in new sequence plays ok ?

    Thanks Ann & Glenn,
    I accidentally hit Toggle Track Output "EYE" Key and, disabled the monitor, to the left of the Opacity handle, in 6 years on other Premiere Pro I have never done that , the darkened display did not help, even Automate to Sequence seemed to disappear in CS5.5.1. But, all is now well thanks to you both it gave me the clue.

  • How to record screen video with sound but not playing while its recording

    Hi, I'm trying to figure out a smart way to record some video lectures using my computer. I note that the Quicktime player is able to do that, but it confines your screen to a certain size so anything that falls into that screen capture zone will be recorded which is fine as i get a separate monitor soon so i can just chuck it one side to record while I'm doing other work.
    But what im still trying to figure out is how the sound can also be simultaneously recorded by the software (be it Quicktime or not) and yet not be playing out loud on the speakers so i can do my work and not get distracted by that.
    Any line-in or some clever way to do that?
    Windows options also possible using parallels if anyone has a solution

    Hey Jeffrey,
    The easy solution to this is through the utilization of SoundFlower (Completely free).
    Here are two tutorials that will guide you through the process of capturing your System's Sound as well as recording whatever is playing on the screen:

  • Adding video to iTunes but keeping it in a folder when iTunes organizes your folder automaticly

    Hi,
    I've recently added a video to my iTunes librariry (on Windows 7) so that I can view it through my AppleTV, I was able to add it to the library and change it's type from Movie to TV Show but when I look at the folder structure, it puts it to the root of TV Show folder and not into a specific folder (for example, the name of the show).  If I create a folder and move the file into it, everything resets back to moving it into the movie category (because I have the option for iTunes to keep my folder organised automaticly).  So I was just wondering if there's a way I can configure the file (maybe through the get info in iTunes) to have inside a specific folder.

    I suspect the problem is that you're not filling in enough information to cause the file to be moved to the intended folder.
    Fill in both Album and Show with the name you want your "TV Show" to have. See this for more info.
    Don't move iTunes media around by hand, that just confuses things. As in the words of this video you need to trick it into doing what you want.

  • I copied a home video to itunes but it plays a minute and then stops

    I created a slideshow with music using Movie Maker. I selected to output as MPEG-4/H.264 Video file. I then wanted to import to iTunes to play on my Apple TV. It looks like the file gets imported and shows the length of the file, but when I play it through the video stops after a minute and 1/2 and will not continue at all. Anyone experience this problem? If so, what can I do? I also know there's no hiccups in the file because I've watched this entire 30 minute video using Quicktime before proceding to iTunes import.
    Need help!

  • Premiere 2014 MXF Footage Still Crashing, Glitching, Picture Freezes but Audio Plays Fine, Footage Duplicating Itself in Media Bin & Timeline - HitFilm3 pro plays fine!

    WTH is going with Premiere?  These continuing problems are just getting worse and worse. I just imported 12 hours of MXF footage at 720p and almost all the footage has duplicated itself in my media bin when I import. rather the files are there ie: AA009906.MXF, and so on numerically, but the lengths are all the same, and the picons play the exact same footage within the media bin. So I drag all the footage to the timeline where the footage is all duplicated the same amount of files there are. But not always. Also if I just drag the first file down to timeline, almost the whole disk shows up on the timeline. Finally when playing, after about a couple of minutes, the pictures freezes on some non descript frame for the rest of about 2 hours worth.  Then everything all picks up fine. Next chip of files same thing but at different places.
    What's really a hoot, is that I just downloaded a trial version of HITFILM3PRO editing software and all my footage plays just fine without any of ADOBE's glitches.  Also downloaded AVL Player for MXF files, to which everything plays just fine too.
    This is oh so ridiculous that If I weren't laughing so much right now, i'd be on the verge of a heart attack with all this Adobe Crap!
    I can't fathom why Adobe isn't paying me to be a Beta Tester, instead of me having to call my new client, Once Again, and tell them that their project is on Hold, Once again, just the same for every project ever since adobe introduced "CREATIVE CLOUD".

    That's strange. Can you upload a test file so I can try and replicate the behavior?
    You did ingest via the Media Browser after copying the camera's HD cards to your media HD right?
    What kind of camera is this?

  • MPEG-4 video gives still but audio plays FW 3.1.3

    Hi, I have a Iphone 3GS 32 with 3.1.3 installed and discovered that MPEG-4 files don't play video and some H264 video stops after c.a. 40 seconds for c.a. 60 seconds.
    I have tried to convert with Itunes, but Itunes gives the message that the fileformat is correct and does not have conversion neceserry.
    Withe the MP4 issue the audio sounds good and my screen is displaying a stil with a green bar right below. On 3.1.2 everithing was all right. I have tried to downgrade to 3.1.2 but that is restricted.
    I have checked the playing of the same files on my old 3G 16 with 3.1.2 and the files are playing well.
    I also discovered with playing H264 files that the stop after ca 40 seconds for 1 minute and then go on. The movie time us running from 0:40 - 1:48 but audio and video stops. After the 1:48 the movie is continuing well????
    In the Ipod discussions i saw same issue wit FW 3.1.3, but i have posted it also in the Iphone discussion.
    Hopefully Aplle fixes this verry soon!!
    THX in advance for any suggestion to make it work,
    Wim

    I have downloaded the latest Danuisoft DVD ripper and ripped the movies again and they run in 320*240 H264 and MPEG-4 format.
    Strange that they run in the 3.1.2 FW and not in the 3.1.3 FW. Maybe someting to dow with the solved MPEG-4 flaw.
    So now i have to convert my 30 movies again.
    THX for your suggestion whatheck
    I am concerning also the right choice of the 3GS. It is faster, but i get anoying messages about diverting when i call somebody, i have to convert my movies again. But stil its faster.
    On my good old 3G that was jailbroken and i could customize al the anoying messages and now Apple is avoiding all this customizing by FW's that could not be customized. Why not an open system so that i can choose by miself as user of a beautyfull piece of technology that supports me on the road with Phone, Internet, AV, Entertainement and Land/Nautical Navigation aids.
    So next sunday it wil be bad wether so that i can take the time to do the converting work.
    THX a lot,
    Wim

  • Rebuild library, but keep play counts?

    My large library has been working great.  It is kept on the internal drive.  The problem is none of my music is showing up in the media browser of an open dialogue box on any Apple apps (mail, iphoto, etc) and most 3rd party apps.  It has been suggested I rebuild the library, which is done by trashing 2 files, iTunes library and the XML file.  I hesitate to do this because my gut feeling tells me this will delete metadata, such as play counts.  I would really like to keep my play counts, as I do use them in smart playlists?  Any thoughts?  Thanks.

    I don't know if the media browser uses it, but the XML file is provided for third party programs as a way of querying the iTunes database. The name of the XML file is iTunes Music Library.xml if your library is in the standard location of the user's Music folder. If you relocate the library somewhere else the XML file is iTunes Library.xml. Perhaps there is an empty non-updating file in one location and media browser isn't watching the correct one. Or it could be something else entirely. The XML file is safe to delete however, so it's worth a shot if you haven't already tried it. Trashing the library file and rebuilding from the XML is another issue as certain metadata (date added for example) will be lost with that method.
