Videos not playing correctly

I've had my video iPod for a couple of weeks and generally, I love it. But I noticed that just today (this was NOT an issue before), the videos do not play correctly -- and it's not file-specific. Here's what happens:
The first few rows of pixels lag behind the rest of the video. it's always the same rows. It's especially noticeable while watching Lost with its faster sequences. Has anyone experienced this?

FLV videos not playing correctly in Captivate 6

I am running into an issue where my FLV video is not playing correctly when my Captivate project is exported out and saved to the web. The FLV video is about 20 mins long (~100 MB) and it is being streamed from Kaltura. The FLV video is inputted into the Captivate project as a multi-slide synchronized video across 27 slides. The slides themselves are imported from Powerpoint. The problem that we are running into is that the Captivate project and the FLV video play correctly when viewed with decent bandwidth, but they do not appear to play correctly for users with slower bandwidth. However, if a user views the videos independently of Captivate, they can view the videos correctly, even at slower bandwidth. I have tried hosting the Captivate files on several different webservers, including an LMS. But the issue continues and I'm searching for any type of answers that might help.
Thanks for reading and any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

Nathan,
Your welcome, if that is the case, then can you try and insert the MultiSlide Video, you can insert the streaming video URL.
You can add the server to you computer as network Drive and then browser to that location, once you do that, the options to add the Video as Streaming can be chose and your Vidoe would remain insync with main playbar, users can play and pause content that way.
See if this can be implemented at your end.
Thanks,

Flash videos not playing correctly

I posted some flash videos to some sites that get a
tremendous amount of website traffic. We are getting feedback that
the flash videos do not play consitently. Some people can see them
just fine, others cannot see the videos at all, for others -
particulary in Firefox, the video asks to download rather than
play. We created the videos using Flash 9 - importing the FLV file
and saving as an swf. We do not really see any type of pattern
across browsers.
Any advice?

IPhoto 11 video not playing correctly

I'm not sure this is because of the recent upgrade to iPhoto 9.4.2 but when I attempt to play a video, the video freezes on one frame but the audio continues as if the video is playing normally. Is anyone else experiencing this problem?

Shane Ross has a tip that may work for you.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=4109217
"There is a trick that you need to do. Because I export mine at 30fps out of SNAPZ, but when I bring them in to FCP, they are 10fps. Odd...
BUT...if you use Cinema Tools and CONFORM the clips to 29.97, then they will work fine. Open Cinema Tools, cancel any option to open or create a database. Open the clip and hit CONFORM.
Then import into FCP and use this trick to edit it:

You'll still have to render the audio.

Video not playing correctly in Safari

Hi there
I am having problems viewing embedded video streams in Safari (6.0.4). The video will play ok for a second or two then breaks up into vertical lines (see picture below) with the video's audio playing back ok. I have loaded the same pages using the Chrome browser and the video will playback ok without any issues so that narrows it down to be a problem within Safari.
I know the simple answer is to switch to Chrome as my main browser but tbh I really don't like Chrome very much and would prefer to use Safari as my main browser.
Any help solving this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Cap 4: Flash Videos not playing correctly

I have flv files on 3 different slides of my project. When I publish the project, the 2nd and 3rd videos will play the audio but the video only displays the first frame from the first video.
I published the flv files from Camtasia 7. Does anyone have any suggestions?

If you think it could be a Firefox setting, try:
'''Create a new Firefox profile'''
A new profile will have your system-installed plugins (e.g., Flash) and extensions (e.g., security suite toolbars), but no themes, other extensions, or other customizations. It also should have completely fresh settings databases and a fresh cache folder.
Exit Firefox and start up in the Profile Manager using Start > search box (or Run):
firefox.exe -P
Any time you want to switch profiles, exit Firefox and return to this dialog.
Click the Create Profile button, choose a useful name (like May2014), and skip the option to use a non-default folder location. Then start Firefox in the new profile you created.
Does Flash work any differently in the new profile?
When returning to the Profile Manager, you might be tempted to use the Delete Profile button. But... it's a bit too easy to accidentally delete your "real" profile, so I recommend resisting the temptation. If you do want to clean up later, I suggest making a backup of all your profiles first in case something were to go wrong.

Streamed H.264 videos not playing correctly thru IE

I'm new at web stuff so this is probably the dopiest question yet, but here goes.
I'm setting up a web page where my clients can stream a "quick-start" QT movie. My tests have worked perfectly on my own computer (Mac Quicksilver) using Safari and QT7 Pro. It even works when I force them to play using the latest RealPlayer. My partner can't seem to view them on her PC using Explorer. So I did a test where I tried to view them through Explorer too, and I got the same problems.
From reading other threads, it seems this may have something to do with "tags." Can someone explain what tags do and what I might need to do to my videos to play more universally?

Streaming media needs special "properties" called hint tracks inside the media and is also only served from special software.
99% + of the files you view are "downloaded". They use "fast start" to begin playback as soon as enough data has downloaded so that they can play without having to re-buffer (reload) data.
QuickTime plug-in "guesses" the download progress and begins playback (if the file properties or the page code is set to "autoplay") when enough data has been downloaded.
Streaming media can't include some other neat QuickTime "tricks" (like Flash media or text tracks).
We really need some rain down our way. I just answered a knock at my door. It was three Redfish and a really skinny flounder (maybe he was standing sideways) and they asked for a drink of water.
My PDF will teach you some "tricks" and help you get the most from QuickTime Pro. Plus, it will put something other than roadkill wild hog or deer into my diet.

Video not playing correctly

When I try and play my videos I get sound but the video is fussy, as if I am on the wrong channel on a TV set. Can anyone help me with this, Thanks

Thanks Jason L my setting were wrong. Good to go. Time to catch up Thanks again

Video not playing correctly but sound on the videos does

Hey all. Question for you. Recently my iPod has decided to stop playing the videos shows. The display only shows a picture of the show title (much like the cover art of songs) and the audio plays as if it were playing normally. The files seem good because I can play them on iTunes from the iPod. I can't think of anything differently I have done to it in the last few weeks. It just stopped working suddenly. Any ideas? ANd thanks in advance.

On your iPod go to "Videos / Video Settings".
Then select "TV Out" and either set it to "off" or "ask".
Also, make sure you are accessing the video through the videos menu. If you have a video mixed in an audio playlist and you access it through that, you also won't be able to see the video.

Embedded MP4 videos not playing in iOS Safari

Hi everyone,
I'm having a problem with embedded MP4 videos (e.g. YouTube videos) not playing correctly in Safari. When I try to play one, I get one of two problems:
1. On my (first gen) iPad, Safari usually crashes.
2. On my iPhone 4, videos will load but only play audio, not video, though when I tap on the screen the "play" and "pause" symbols appear.
Has anyone else run into this problem? Or know how to fix it?
Thanks,
Mike

Ok, I fixed it. Go to some embedded Flash video, click to run and then right click to get Global Settings for Flash. Go into Storage and make sure you aren't blocking any data from being stored on your computer. At the very least choose the "ask me" setting. (For good measure I also went into Advanced and clicked to Delete All Data associated with Flash. But when I restored Block for data storage the videos stopped working, so that seems to be the answer.) I'd be interested to hear if this works for others.

Online video clips do not play correctly on all browsers

I am unable to play video clips at the right speed without them stalling and stuttering. For example, a typical YouTube clip will not play correctly, so the video will stutter and the sound won't play in time with the video.
This is especially frustrating when wanting to play music video clips as the song will stutter. This happens regardless of browser - Firefox, Safari or Netscape.
I have a broadband Internet connection but wonder whether I need to adjust speed settings somewhere so sound and music play correctly.
I have no problems playing songs via iTunes or watching video clips using Quicktime, it's just the embedded video clips on YouTube etc that won't play correctly.
Any advice much appreciated.
Thanks,
Rob

Flash video is very CPU intensive, open activity monitor and look at your CPU usage while trying to watch a YouTube video, no doubt it is at 100%.
Unfortunately there isn't much you can do about this - my 400 Mhz G3 can't handle flash video and by the look of some previous posts on the forum I'd be surprised if any can .

Ive got youtube videos converted to mp3 files on my itunes, they used to play fine but since the recent update they do not play correctly. how can i fix this?

Try running these songs through MP3 Validator to see if there any issues.
If nothing else, convert them to another format such as AAC via iTunes using the instructions in this Apple support document.

Video portion of Nightwish DVD not playing correctly on Quicktime. It is not a smooth playback. Can I correct this?

Video portion of Nightwish DVD not playing correctly on Quicktime. It is not a smooth playback. A little jerky. Is there an easy slution to the problem?

I worded my question incorrectly. It isn't a DVD I'm having the problem with, it' s a Nightwish concert download form iTunes I am having the video portion of the video that plays not smoothy. Like it is moothing it short little segments, not a steady flow!
