Why do I only get the audio when I play video files?

I only receive the audio portions when I play video files. The video is blank/black. This is happening with mpg., avchd and the videos posted to websites; YouTube, Facebook etc. The only video files I can play are windows media files. Windows media PLAYER won't play the other video files? I have the latest updates for my video card and adobe flash player. Thanks for any info!

It is most likely that the various files contain CODEC's, that are either not installed on your computer, or PrE is not able to use them.
You list several file types, and I would urge you to first see this FAQ Entry, then get one of the file info utilities, linked in it, G-Spot, MediaInfo, or MediaInspector, then post the details on the various CODEC's: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/440037?tstart=0
Also, that WMP cannot play the video indicates the likelihood of a CODEC issue.
Try either of the great, free media players, VLC Player, or MediaPlayer Classic HC. Both contain many useful CODEC's, but they do NOT install them into the OS.
Good luck, and with the CODEC info, someone can give your recommendations.

Why am I not getting the audio when I send a video from Premier Pro to encor to make a DVD?

I created a video with only one audio track. It plays perfectly in Premier Pro
Then I send it to encor to make a DVD. When I play the video in the monitor in encor, there is not sound, audio track
What am I doing wrong. I have done this successfully many times before

To further add to the equation if I go to System Preferences and switch my output from my MOTU Firewire to the internal speakers of my Mac Pro I can hear the clip I just dragged and couldn't hear before in the Timeline AND when I then switch back to the MOTU I can now hear that same clip I just dragged in the Timeline. But if I drag a new clip from Events to Timeline then I cannot hear it again until I go through this same song and dance.
Help?
Weird... It appears that there is a problem with the audio not being routed to the right output.
I don't have a MOTU interface, but could it be that there is an updated driver for it?
Also, I'd try to let OnyX run its cleaning and maintenance routines.
If all else fails, at least you can shorten the workaround: you don't need to go to system preferences to change the output for sound. Just option-click on the volume icon in the menu bar and select the desired choice.

How can i detach the video from a clip so i can only use the audio when using imovie?

how can i detach the video from a clip so i can only use the audio when using imovie?

First, go to iMovie/Preferences and enable the Advanced Tools.
Import the video clip into an iMovie Event. When you get ready to use it in an iMovie Project, select the clip in the Event and drag & drop it on top of a video or photo clip in the project at the place where you want it to begin. When the pop-up menu appears, choose Audio Only.

Go to the Map mode in your iDVD project and make sure the blue bin at the left is empty. That's where you drag slideshows to if you want the DVD to open immediately to that slideshow and bypass the menu.

If there is an item in there drag it out.

I assume this is using an app.
Check the developer's website as many only support Audio Airplay.

ktrow,
We are going to get you up and running with all picture text messages. Have you ever been able to receive picture messages in a group text before? Can ou please check some settings for me. Let's go into Settings, Messages, and is MMS Messaging swich green? How about the Group Messaging switch? If they are green, go ahead and switch those off for a few seconds and then turn them back on. Then re-try the picture message. One last thing, you can also try to reset the network settings. Settings, General, Reset, Reset Network Settings. Please keep us posted.

How do you convert the audio from a mpeg4 video file to mp3?

I get no audio when running news videos from home page

I get no audio when running video on firefox but everything works correctly using explorer or opera

Hi coyote6014,
It could be a couple of things. You might have accidentally muted audio for Firefox. The article Knowledge Base article [[No sound in Firefox]] will show you how to check.
If that doesn't work, you should look at [[Video or audio does not play]]. This will show you how to troubleshoot any plugin/extension issues that might be impacting your system.
Hopefully this helps!

Getting the audio back on a video clip in the time line

hi all,
and happy new year!
have deleted the audio from a video clip in the time line and now want it back, how would I get the audio back?
thanks for your time
jonyfoz

Put the playhead at the beginning of the clip and press the X key. It should mark in and out point for the clip. Press the F key to match frame back to the same clip. Make sure both video and audio target tracks are set correctly and press F0 to overwrite and edit the clip with audio back into the timeline.

How to normalize the audio channel of a video file?

Hi there
I have 100 quicktime movies.
All I want to do is to normalise the audio in them.
I understood that in the Volume correction I need to select - Equalize Volume Levels.
Is that it?
You can watch the movies without the sound boost in here
Also, How can I save the audio File into the quicktime without rendering the video again.
I don't want the video to be encoded again because the quality is really bad for some reason.
Even If I choose Animation codec which suppose to be good.
Isn't there a way of saving the new audio in the movie without encoding it all again?
Thanks
Guy

HT1539 Why do I only get the SD copy of a digital download when I bought the blu-ray HD film?

Just bought the 3D Blu-ray version of Prometheus and was pleased to see it came with a digital copy, however on redemption in the iTunes store it only downloads the SD version. Is this standard practice? Why don't they give you the HD version of the film if you buy the blu-ray HD version?!

When I put my redemption code in, I immediately got three downloads: HD 1080p, SD and iTunes Extras.
Is your device compatible with HD (because if not it will default to the SD version)?
If so, have you selected a preferred HD format in both the Playback and Store tabs in iTunes Preferences?
If you visit the Prometheus product page in the iTunes store, do you have the option to purchase a HD version? If there is, it should say "(Downloading [format])", where [format] is what you have selected in Preferences.
See here for more information.
If your computer ticks all the boxes, I suggest sending Apple a support ticket.

I purchased some Karaoke songs from Itunes store, but I need to know which type of disk to burn to so that I get the words also. I tried burning on a CD-R but when put in Karaoke machine I only get the audio. Can anyone help please?

I purchases some karaoke songs from itunes store, but cannot get them to burn onto a cd with the words. What must I do to be able use my purchase in a karaoke machine so I can see the wrds on screen as well as hear the audio?

The tracks labeled "karaoke" in the iTunes Store are only instrumental backing tracks; they are not actual karaoke tracks. They do not have lyrics, and cannot be burned to the usual CD+G format that a karaoke machine will accept.
If you want actual karaoke tracks, go to a specialty online download store such as KaraokeDownloads.com.

Why do I only get the first page of a 5-page pdf when I attach it in Pages?

I'm trying to add a multi-page pdf to the end of a Pages document so that I can see what hard copy I sent in the post with the letter. However, I can only attach the first page of the pdf and the other pages don't show. I have tried selecting all the pages and choosing Print Selected Page when creating the pdf, (which was suggested in the Snow Leopard help pages) but the same thing still happens. Just the first page appears. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? I'm not sure if this should be posted in Snow Leopard or Pages so I'll try here! Thank you.

You can not attach a multi-page .pdf document to Pages.
Just create a folder in which you enclose both your Pages letter and the .pdf.
