Why does my itunes music feed glitch when streaming

Hi,
I have the latest version of I tunes on my Windows 7 based machine. I recently purchased a Monitor Audio ASB-2 sound bar with Airplay but when I stream to it both the sound from the bar and the pc plays for about 7 seconds cuts for about 1 second and then happens all over again without a break. I purchased a new Airport Express today to see if the same this happens and it does, even with all three thing playing.
Interestingly if I play from my iphone or my sons ipod there is no issue. Any ideas please?? 

Hey there Solarboy101,
It sounds like you’re running into Air-Play performance issues when streaming music from iTunes on your PC to your AirPlay-enabled speakers. Try the troubleshooting suggestions in the article linked below, they'll generally resolve issues like the one you've described.

  • Why does the iTunes music-radio stop every about 15 minutes? I have Windows 7.

    Why does the iTunes radio-music streaming stop every 15 minute? I have Windows 7.

    The thing is, the music does not cease prior to the slideshow start. Or At least it doesn't cease on my ATV.
    I do have Flickr set as screensaver indeed, but having to change screensaver settings to watch a new slideshow is just plain annoying IMO.
    Ane the fact that the music plays when a screensaver slideshow is active is a proof that technically the ATV could support the feature.
    Thank you for your reply.

  • Why does my iTunes hang every time when using automatic device detect?

    Why does my iTunes hang every time that I connect either of my devices (iTouch-4th Gen, iPod Nano-5th Gen), to my Win 7 (64-bit) PC desktop?  By the way, this does not happen if I open iTunes first, and then connect the device.  So my workaround was to simply uncheck the checkbox that allows iTunes to start automatically upon device connection.  This doesn't fix the problem, but it allows me to synch my device, but it would be nice to be able to have the autodetect work properly, so that iTunes would start normally without locking up on me and freezing. That's what I mean by 'hanging'.  My whole computer doesn't freeze--only iTunes.

    Hello E
    Start with finding the path where the songs are on your PC by right clicking the songs that are missing in iTunes and click Get Info. You should get a window that pops up and in the Summary tab; the path will be there. Then navigate to where it was and see if the files exist. Other than that you can try to search your computer to find those files. Checkout the articles below for tips on finding the missing music, also if some of the tracks are downloaded from the iTunes Store you can download the tracks again by deleting the missing tracks from iTunes and then navigating to the purchases section in the iTunes Store to download them again.

  • Why does my iTunes store keep freezing when switching iTunes stores?

    I have an account in both the Canada store and the U.S. store (I buy U.S. iTunes cards for use as some shows do not come to Canada until nearly a year after its U.S. store release). However, and don't ask why I haven't posted about this earlier I noticed for the past month or two when I switch from one to the other, my iTunes freezes completely forcing me to Force Quit it and restart. It will then be in the store I was switching into (from Canada to U.S. or vice versa) but it still had to freeze and be re-opened before I could access it. Is there any reason this might be happening? I feel like it might've happened after the most recent update because it did not used to do this. I have the latest iTunes update 11.1.3 (8).
    Thanks for anyone's help.

  • Why does my Mac stall and glitch when playing movies?

    I got my Mac Pro halway through 2012 and recently it's been really slow but what really annoys me is when it glitches and stalls when I try to watch a movie on VLC or iTunes how can I fix this?????

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
    SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.

  • Why does the iTunes dock icon bounce when quitting the app?

    ITunes 11.1.2 on Mac OSX 10.6.8.
    Every time I shut down iTunes, the dock icon bounces. This never happens with any other application. Dock icons are supposed to bounce when you start up an app, not when you quit it, Right?
    Thanks.

    Hello there, ocsimple.
    The following Knowledge Base article clarifies what it means when an icon bounces on your dock:

    Particularly:
    Bouncing icon in the Dock
    An application's icon may bounce in the Dock to request your attention.
    When you close iTunes, is it prompting you with a window or some other message when you click the bouncing icon?

    Hey Tigergirl17,
    Thanks for the question. If you haven't already done so, you may want to update iTunes to v11.1 (released on Sept 18th). After updating iTunes, you can then update your iPhone 5 to iOS 7.
