Videos freeze after 5-7 seconds, no audio at all - Google Chrome

Win7 x64
Google Chrome 21.0.1180.60 m
Flash version 11.3.31.222
My os is 64-bit, but the "what version of flash are you running" window says it's 32-bit. Which strikes me as odd. Anyway,
Problem is basically laid out in the subject. No matter what video I try to play, it freezes after a few seconds. There is no audio whatsoever. I tried the uninstall (using the uninstaller) I found in another Flash forum, but it didn't help. As a matter of fact, running the uninstaller made no difference at all. Videos still played for a few seconds, sans audio, then froze.
Is there a fix for this? It only started happening yesterday.
Update: Also happens in Firefox. IE works fine.

Our Chrome browser not only automatically updates it's version (21.0.1180.60m) without notice , but the Shockwave Flash (11.3.31.222/ 11.3.300.268) plugins too!!!
I had to disable 11.3.31.222 along w. 11.3.300.268 and have 11.2 r202 (11.2.202.235) solely enabled again because this time, i had 'shockwave plugin unresponsive' at some websites that stalled pages, and of 11.3.300.268., 'unresponsive shockwave plugin' refused to play YT.
*type: chrome://plugins in address bar in chrome - click the + on the top right
And enable/disable plugins
I think d/l's here might very well work: http://www.oldapps.com/flash_player.php
or, directly
(Although it seems some are not happy w. crashing browsers and such with 11.3.300.268 version!?)
Adobe Flash Player 11.3.300.268 (Non-IE)

Video freezes after a few seconds

This is actually a continuation of a post I made almost a year and a half ago, trying to get video chat going so my mom can visit with her grandkids. The thread has been archived, so I can't post there but in case it helps here's the address:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1658017&tstart=0
We are both running Tiger 10.4.11 and iChat AV 3.1.9 (v446), although she's on a 1.25 GHz G4 with 1.5 GB of RAM, and I'm on a 1.8 GHz iMac G5 with 1 GB of RAM. We both have the exact same videocamera, Canon Elura 70, attached via Firewire. Both computers recognize the cameras fine, no problems there.
Anyway, my sister and I have tried 1,000 different things but nothing works. I can always see her but not hear her, and the connection is dropped after a few seconds, saying there's insufficient bandwidth to maintain the conference. She can't see me at all, but she can hear me. The chat usually ends with error -20 and sometimes -22. For instance, here's the log from our try today:
*2010-01-29 11:49:30 -0600: No data has been received for the last 10 seconds.*
*Audio channel info: local machine using 10.0.1.3:16386, expecting remote machine to send to 97.83.147.78:56754*
*Video channel info: local machine using 10.0.1.3:16384, expecting remote machine to send to 97.83.147.78:56752*
*Chat ended with error -20*
*Chat ended with error -20*
*Chat ended with error -22*
*Chat ended with error -22*
The thing is, we can video conference successfully (video and audio) with each other from separate rooms if we're both at her house, as well as from separate rooms when we're both at mine. However, when we're each at our own home, it won't work. She's got a download speed of 8.5, and mine is 8.3. Her upload speed is 1.01 and mine is 1.74.
I am connected through a router - SMC Barricade (SMC7004VBR), and a WebStar modem. We've both taken the tape out of our camera, set our bandwidth limit in iChat to none. System Preferences > Quicktime > Streaming is at 1.5Mbps. I've learned how to access my router settings but I don't see a DoS or SPI setting. It shows firewall features are disabled.
We've also tried to connect with Skype instead, and I was able to see my sister without it freezing. But she couldn't see me, so it still didn't fully work.
I'm totally at a loss. Any ideas?
Edit: Forgot to say her modem is an Ambit U10C018.

Wow, thank you so much for the detailed response. I'm actually feeling a little bit of hope that we might get this figured out eventually!
iChat 3.x at both ends.
Can Login and show Buddy Lists
Can Send Visible Invites.
Can Start Video Chat but something says the Bandwidth is then not good enough.
Error Message.
All true, except she has never been able to see me unless we're both in the same my house.
The Intranet /LAN setting in Tiger for iChat 3 also returns Odd figures to
iChat so we have long said set it to 1.5Mbps which your last post says it is.
I take it you must have restarted iChat f not the Mac(s) since you changed
this setting ? (Just covering all bases)
Right.
Have you changed the range the SMC uses to miss the range the modem is using ?
The only change I've made to anything recently is in iChat prefs: Under Accounts - Server settings, I changed the top port to 443 because regular iChat kept disconnecting at odd times and I read somewhere that it might help. But we had this AV problem long before that, and after.
I see the SMC cannot Forward enough ports for iChat but Can do UPnP
(Universal Plug and Play)
Is it set to do UPnP ?
I don't see anything that says UPnP. It says:
GATEWAY
IP Address: 192.168.2.1
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
DHCP Server: Enabled
Firewall: Disabled
On the Port Forward site there are two WebSTARs listed under
Scientic Atlanta
DO you have either of these ?
No, it is a DPC2100.
I could also do with seeing an old log of an Error 20 log.
They are stored in You Home Folder/Library/Logs/iChatConnectionErrors
Can you post the bits down and only down to the line that starts "Binary Images for iChat"
Pasted at bottom of this post.
Can you tell me if there is a Wifi and Ethernet connection to the Router ? (at > the same time )
My husband's PC is connected to the router via Ethernet. The only other things connected to it are the modem and my Airport Express so I can get online with my Macs. (I used to have the iMac connected by Ethernet before I realized I had an Airport card. Duh.)
Thanks so much for your patience and help!

IChat video freezes after a few seconds of "chatting"

I am able to start a video discussion using iChat with someone on AOL, but the video image freezes after about 10 to 15 seconds. Is there a setting that needs to be changed? Is this a common problem?

Ok If they have the AOL package it includes the AIM IM application.
1) it has to be activated for use and it sounds like you are pats this.
2) depending how old the package is will determine which AIM application it is based on.
Most likely it is AIM 5.9 if it is a bit older.
IF it is it should have several things done.
a) the IM part of AOL needs to be allowed as an Exception in the XP Firewall See here and allow for the AOL package if required)
b) The most likely. It will need to have the Video Quality reduced.
In AIM 5.9 the outgoing Video appears as a tab behind the incoming one.
This tab should be brought to the front.
Next to the Video now should be a small icon.
Click on it and a slider should appear.
Slide the slider to the left to reduce the quality.
This will in fact allow their processor to produce more frames per sec and the pic should not freeze.
c) they should look at message 570 and see if this applies to them

Flash-Based BBC h264 Videos Freeze After 8 Seconds

Hello,
I like to view BBC news videos since March on my new Desktop Windows 7 64 bit Pro system. For about 2 weeks now, I've been having trouble viewing about half of these videos. Half play all the way through fine and the other half freeze after 8-10 seconds. I have a CAT 5e 7 mbit cable modem connection so speed is not an issue. My Wi-Fi connected Windows 7 Home Premium laptop uses the same router and can play the same videos with no problems.
On my Desktop, this freezing happens on both FireFox 12 and Internet Explorer 9. I did all the usual things to try to fix the problem. I cleared the caches on both FF12 and IE9. Yesterday, I uninstalled both the Adobe Flash FF12 plug-in and IE9 Active-X versions and reinstalled with the latest version, 11,3,300,262. Today, I upgraded to the latest version, 11,3,300,265. Nothing has solved the problem.
Here are the specs for the BBC Flash-based player:

The only difference I noticed was the initial screen size of the video. On the problem videos, the size is bigger than the OK one. I assume the BBC videos are h264 encoded. On both my Desktop and my laptop, I have 2 msmpeg2vdec.dll files. 1 in C:\Windows\System32 and another in C:\Windows\SysWOW64. They are both v6.1.7140.0. On both my Desktop and laptop, the sizes are different, 2.52 MB & 2.03 MB.
I am using the latest nVidia driver v301.42 which I installed 5/30/2012, over a month ago. The only recent change which happened to my system on 7/4/2012 was my Norton Internet Security 2012 subscription expired. NIS2012 then disabled itself and activated the built-in Windows firewall. 3 days ago I uninstalled NIS2012. I also used the Norton Removal Tool. I then installed a new NIS2012 with a new legitimate key. However, I am still getting this freezing and I don't remember if I got this freezing before 7/4/2012.
On both FF12 and IE9, I can play Hulu, YouTube, Yahoo!, and Amazon videos with no problems. When you right-click on any of these other flash players, nowhere does it say "h264."
My questions are:
1) does the Adobe Flash Player, for both the FF12 plug-in and IE9 ax players, use the Windows7 CODEC?
2) Which file is the h264 CODEC, is it msmpeg2vdec.dll or something else?
3) Will installing a new CODEC pack fix this problem?
4) Is there anything else I have overlooked? Is there anything else I can do to fix this problem?
Thanks.

Interestingly, the advertisement plays correctly. When you right-click on the ad, it does not say h264. I have 2 video cards and several monitors on my Desktop. It might have something to do with that. Otherwise, perhaps one of my other apps did something to the Flash Player h264 playback.
I'm thinking maybe if I upgraded the h264 CODEC, maybe it will play correctly again. CODEC GUIDE has a codec package which I already downloaded but haven't installed yet. I downloaded the "Basic." Unless you really need to, I don't recommend anyone install it. If you want to install a CODEC package, just install the "Basic" package and not one of the bigger packages. I think they make changes to your system. Before installing it, be sure to make a full backup of your Windows system.

Youtube videos freeze after a certain amount of time, but audio continues.

As it says in the title, most Youtube videos freeze after a certain amount of time for me, but the audio continues.
Happens on Firefox, IE and Chrome

This happens mostly because of obsolate drivers.

8.2 is out...perhaps that will address your problem.

Video Freezes after Update to 1.1

Video freezes after 20 seconds of play and then resumes with no audio after upgrading to 1.1.
From what I've read, this seems to be a problem when video has been converted using a third party software. It seems at this point, the only way to remedy the situation is to downgrade to 1.0. Here's how to do it without having to restore your ipod:
http://www.digg.com/apple/Howto_downgrade_to_older(iPod)firmware_WITHOUTrestoring
Just as a note, I called applecare and my technician was clueless about the problem. She was telling me to send it in, but I'm fairly certain that this isn't a hardware problem, just a problem with the upgrade, as people on many other forums are reporting it. In that case, you probably won't get much help calling customer service just yet. Hopefully they'll put a fix out for it soon.

Hi,
I had the same problem and downgraded to the lower version. now the video works without any problem, but there seems to be another problem. when I want to eject the ipod from itunes, I get a message, that the iPod cannot be ejected because data on the iPod is currently used by an external program...
any idea...?

UPDATE: AFTER RESTARTING THE PC IT WORKED WITHOUT PROBLEMS!

Why is my Garageband freezing after a few seconds of recording after recent iTunes and other updates?

I use garagband regulalry for voice recording. It now freezes after a few seconds(if that) of recording. I use an Audio Technica usb mic with no problems. I remember this happening with GB afer another OS upgrade in the past.. Is there a problem or should I be looking for something on my setup? I run 14gb of ram, have a timemachine connected and use an apogee duet.

No problem ; if you look at the question you posted initially - your forst post-, it is signed with a profile signature as the last line:
MacPro, Mac OS X (10.6.1)
and that made us think, that you still are using Mac OS Leopard, where the user library in your Home Folder is visible and easily accessible.
You can change your profile from the "your Stuff" drop-down menu in the upper right corner of this webpage:

My MacBook will not play videos. No sound and the video stops after a few seconds.

My Mac book pro will not play videos. No sound and the video stops after a few seconds.

Hello GrahamBIOM,
I understand while viewing a video or listening to some different content, you lose audio, is that correct? I will do all I can to assist you with this issue.
Does the issue occur when you have headphones inserted? If you are not sure, if you have a set of headphones available could you test that please?
Please respond back at your earliest convenience with results.
Thanks

H.264 multi-pass re-encoded video freezes after 10 sec (consistently)

When I take an already encoded H.264/AAC movie and re-encode (to enable the fast-internet streaming option) with the same settings with the "Best Quality (multi-pass)" option enabled, the resulting video freezes after 10 seconds, though the sound continues through the rest of the movie. I have tried this on 3 different movies with the same results. When I change the encoding to "Faster encode (single-pass)", the resulting movie's video frame does NOT freeze at 10 seconds and plays normally. I can reproduce this on any already encoded H.264 movie I wish with the same results.
I have Mac OS X 10.4.8 (PowerPC), 1GB RAM, QT 7.1.3 PRO. I also happen to have DivX 6.2.5 Pro and Flip4Mac 2.1.0.33 Player Pro (though I was not converting anything using those codecs).
Any suggestions? SEEMS to be a QT bug to me... Any one else experiencing this
17 PowerBoook (1.33 GHz) Mac OS X (10.4.8) 1GB RAM
17 PowerBoook (1.33 GHz) Mac OS X (10.4.8) 1GB RAM
17 PowerBoook (1.33 GHz) Mac OS X (10.4.8) 1GB RAM

No need to jump through all of the re-encoding hoops to enable "fast start".
Open the file (whatever format) and use "Save As".
This will place your file into a .mov "container" but the fast start properties will be restored.

My screen freezes after a few seconds on my iphone 5c and the display fades slightly so you can see faint lines in the background. I'm not sure whether this is easily fixable or a major problem. Have reset the device, but this has worked. Any ideas?

To make sure that this is not software related, set it up as new device, explained in this article:

I was on a website all of a sudden my screen freezes I was able to get out of that screen after a few second and then noticed all my app icon disappeared I have an IPhone 5. Has this happened to anyone before?

That is very strange! Have you been able to get your apps icons back now? Have you attempted a soft reset by holding the power button and home button at the same time until the phone restarts? Keep me posted with the results!

Incoming Video freezes after a few minutes Using S...

I just installed the Sony BDP-S780 Blu-ray and Sony CMU-BR100 Webcam, skype is working, however the incoming video freezes after a few minutes. The caller on the other side clicks off the video and then back on, it works again but only for a few minutes. Is there a fix for this or am I doing something wrong.
