Why is my video playing the audio only?

When I add a video to iDVD only the audio is playing. The video plays fine in my library...
Thanks

What Mac do you use? What version of OS X is it running? What versions of iMovie and iDVD do you use?

Why is my macbook playing the audio output through the microphone?

I have an older Macbook Pro. When I call someone on Skype, Google Hangouts, etc., they are able to hear all the audio that my computer is playing through the headphones. E.g. if I watch a video while Skyping someone, they can hear all the audio from that video through their own headphones. This applies to any sounds my computer makes (including the volume change sound, other systems sounds, etc.).
I originally thought it might be some sort of line interference from poor quality headphones, but tests with different headphones rule that out. Please, any thoughts on what might be causing this?

HT2729 My ipod 4th generation is no longer playing videos. It plays the sound only with message "TV connected- This video is playing on TV"?

My IPOD 4th generation has stopped playing videos. It will play the audio only and displays message "TV CONNECTED" "THIS VIDEO IS PLAYING ON THE TV". Don't know how to re-adjust video setting to what it was prior to this happening.

Do you have an Apple TV? An iPod can AirPlay to an Apple TV.
Can you provide a screen shot of what yo are seeing? Also what specific app is it?

Why do some videos play fine on Facebook while others have only audio with a green screen?

Why do some videos play fine on Facebook while others have only audio with a green screen?

Hi,
Green screens are almost always indicative of a video driver issue. Could you please post the contents of your "Display Devices" section after generating a DXDiag report?
What is a Dxdiag report and how do I run one?
I suspect you might have an out of date video driver. This FAQ can help you learn the steps required to update:
Windows: how do I update the device driver for my video/display adapter?
Finally, if the driver update does not help, try disabling hardware acceleration using the steps outlined here:

Why does say"To play the selected item, you must install a later version of the Adobe Flash Player. To download the Adobe Flash Player, go to the Adobe website." when I have the latest Version of it and it's just Black screen with no audio and Video?

My iPod Touch 3G 32GB from 4.2.1 to 4.3.2 cannot play the audio of videos when it's hold and after clicking Home button twice to play audio of the video,why?

When I hold down my iPod Touch 3G 32GB with 4.3.2 I can't play the audio of the video neither clicking play when it's hold why?

It's a limitation from 4.2.1 for iPhone 3GS and iTouch 3G and not for new devices as iPhone 4, iTouch 4G and iPad 2?

IMORTED AUDIO/VIDEO FILE ONLY PLAYS THE AUDIO WITH A BLACK SCREEN

I'm trying to put a DVD together of my friends' concert, but every time I export from AVID to a QT file, import it, transcode it, and put it in a timeline, it only plays audio and a black screen.
I went back into AVID and made sure that I exported both audio and video...I did. Then I checked the QT file, and it plays the audio and video.
I exported the files as uncompressed. Should I use a compressor?
PLEASE HELP!!!
Thanks.

Here's some more info.
I tried installing the latest iTunes to my housemate's PC, logging into iTMS with my account, authorizing his machine to play my content, restoring my iPod to the factory settings, downloading the videos and copying them to my iPod.
It worked fine, and I can play my videos.
I have done the exact SAME thing on my own home PC twice, after completely uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and the Apple Software Updater. But I still can't get any videos downloaded on my home PC to play on my iPods.
Any thoughts?

My old movies now only play the audio

My old movies that used to work just fine on my 60 GB Ipod are now only playing as audio files.
The problem started about a month ago, not sure why. Probably windows, lol. When i went to the video list all of a sudden EVERY song and video was being displayed as a video. However, the tracks that were truly videos were playing as audio only. So i went to video settings and made sure that it wasn't on tv out. The problem persists. So then i connected my ipod to my computer and under the ipod summary screen it says i have audio, photos, but no video. So i went to "get info" on the videos to see if they had changed into audio files but it still says under "summary" and then "kind" that it is a MPEG-4 video file. So then i tried playing it in itunes and IT WORKS FINE! I will mention again that all these videos were playing just fine before. What is going on!?!?
HEEEELP!!!!

Go to edit-->preferences with the iPod showing up in iTunes and hit the iPod tab. Then hit the podcasts tab under the iPod. Make sure transfer all podcasts is bubbled. Now go to the videos tab and make sure transfer all videos is selected. Click okay.
See if they now appear

Can I stream videos using airplay to appletv2 and play the audio thru stereo using airport express?

I have apple tv 2 connected to my HDTV. I am streaming VEVO videos from iphone to ATV2. Would like to play the audio through my sony stereo. Would love to do it wirelessly if possible. Can this be done? Would airport express connected to stereo make this possible? If not what are my options.

The only input ports I have on the stereo is a dmport, auxillary and headphone jacks. I really would like to do this wireless. If, instead of appletv2, I had google tv which VEVO uses could the airport express be used? Seems like I recall reading somewhere that using 2 of them created a wireless connection for audio. Is that right?
Thanks for any advice.

Why won't videos play on my new iPad 2 14gb? They either constantly buffer, stop and I have to press play again, play sound only etc.

Why won't videos play on my new iPad 2 14gb? They either constantly buffer, stop and I have to press play again, play sound only etc.

Thanks .Ralph. The problem is only on the iPad 2only. I have an iPad 1 as well and it never had the problem. The only videos that I have tried are you tube and the tutorials on apple.com. I have absolutely no problem on either of my laptops or desktop PC's. Only the iPad 2. I am a new Apple user, so not very familiar yet with the product, but this is an absolute deal breaker for me. With Apple's reputation I was not expecting any such problems and it is beyond my skill set to solve it. Very frustrating. Again, no problem with you tube videos. I don't watch movies, so am not a Netflix member and haven't tried that yet, only you tube videos and apple.com tutorial videos. I have to watch those on my laptop. Again, I found a fix to the you tube problem. It was a link to a site. www.youtube/html5. html5 video player trial that you click on and once done, the videos on the you tube app started working great. They were doing the same thing as the tutorial videos prior to that. No such luck with the other web videos, at least the ones that i have tried. Hope this is enough info and understandable. You might check out the html5 site. I didn't thoroughly understand why, but it worked. You may understand it better. I am a proficient user, but far from an I.t. Pro. I have read Many posts with similar problems, but no simple solutions and the ones I did try didn't work. Speed tested well. Channel is set to auto and always different than neighboring networks, usually channel 11. Tried disabling QOS as suggested....no good. I am completely stumped. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks very much for you time and helpful info.

Saved File Only Plays The Audio?

hey guys
so i loaded a .mov file that i downloaded and was editing it in iMovie 08 but when I go to export it, it saves and everything but then when I go to play it.. there's only the audio and no video??
any help?
thanks!

Now when I open it, it opens in Quicktime (i tried iTunes also) and plays the audio but where the video should be is just black.
As Winston indicated, it sounds as if your source file compression format is either Apple Animation or Apple Video. Both compression formats will import and edit in iMovie '08 normally but export with a "black" screen and a data rate little more than that of the audio track alone. This problem has existed since the initial release of iMovie '08.
i'm sorry for sounding like an idiot.. but can you tell me where to find that?
Load the source file (i.e., the one you imported to iMovie '08) into the QT Player. Go to the "Window" menu and select "Show Movie Inspector." When the "Inspector" window opens, check the information given in the "Format:" line.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Unfortunately not.

I pause my video and the audio continues...if I play again it causes a major headache. Help?

This might be an easy to answer question, but I am making my second video, so I'm not too knowledgeable. Anyway, I imported audio into my video and it plays back fine. So I play the video, and pause it to try and synchronize the audio. The video stops, but the audio keeps playing, and it will not stop until the whole thing has played. If I try to start from the beginning again and play the audio to sort of override it, it just overlaps with the original audio, and the resulting noise gives me a headache. I don't know if somehow I can stop the audio a portion of the way through, but if I can, that would be great. It would make syncing a whole lot easier. Thanks!

Ok, so I had a .m4a file on my computer, which I then turned into an mp3 using the adobe media encoder. I imported the mp3 using File-Import-Import to Library, and then I created a separate layer for the file and dragged the audio from the library onto the stage while I was on that layer. The layer now had a sound file on it, and I put a keyframe a ways ahead on the timeline so I could see the audio layer. I then played it back using the play button underneath the timeline to begin syncing my animation with the audio that I had imported. I stopped it, a little late as it turned out, but the music continued to play. It would not stop until it had gone through the whole song. While the song was playing I tried starting it from the beginning again, but the new sequence overlapped with the old one so they played together out of time, creating a very unpleasant noise. They both had to finish before I could play it back again to try and sync my animations more precisely. If I could pause the video (again, I'm using that little button at the bottom left of the timeline) and stop the audio, syncing would be so much easier, and I assumed there was a way to fix this. I am working with Flash Professional CS5.5. Thanks for your consideration!

Why is my video playing the audio only?
