Zr100 playback is shaky and sound is distorted

play back on my zr100 is choppy and and sound is distorted...any options or remedy?

Hi Greeneye1,
I'm sorry to hear about the choppy playback on your ZR100.
If this happens on the camcorder, I recommend cleaning the heads using the "DVM-CL Digital Video Head Cleaning Cassette" or its equivalent.

Zr 100 playback is choppy and sound is distorted. Playback is undetermined if clear or not.

I have owned this camera for some time now. It has not been through any trauma or drops. However lately when I go to playback any recordings the playback are chopped up and distorted. Please advise.

Hi greeneye1!
Thanks for the post!
It is possible that this is related to the tape you are using.
How old is the tape?
Have you tried other tapes?
If the tape is older, I recommend that you try another tape if you have not already done so. Try recording new video to the newer tape and see if it still plays back the same way. If it is still choppy and distorted, the camcorder may be in need of repair.

I am using logic to record a podcast and using soundboard to use as a playback for music and sound effects. I'd like to soft patch sound board into logic, and still use my interface for recording audio from the other members of the podcast.

I am using logic to record a podcast. I have a presonus firestudio mobile for my interface so I can record several people at the same time. I'm also using Soundboard for a playback system for music and sound effects. I'd like to know how to soft patch Soundboard into Logic while still using the Firestudio interface to record the other members of the podcast. Does anyone know how to do this? and if so can you tell me how to do it? Thanks.

Thanks. Now, since Apple failed to provide an audio in jack for their new and improved iMacs (mine has one), all I can suggest is that you contact AppleCare, since you have 90-dqy free phone support. If need be, you might reconsider your purchase, but that's for you to decide.

Since firefox upgraded to to 3.6 version, google video chat no longer works - freezes and sound is distorted.

The sound now on google video chat is distorted and I freeze - very annoying as use it every day and used to work perfectly....no answers from browsing your supposed help section.
== This happened ==
Not sure how often
== firefox upgraded

You need update your Firefox up version 3.6.6 and if your problem till occur you can try disable all add-on.
If this erros still I think you need re-install Firefox with lasted version. Good Luck !!!

Video and sound

Whenever i play video's on my ipod, the sound doesn't match to the video. it messes up even more if i fast forward or rewind. any way i can fix that?

I doubt this is related to the electricity. The freezing is the good indicator of thermal overheating that is why you get distorted sounds. When was the last time you cleaned your system vents? If those are fine this would mean you are experiencing hardware failure from the video chipset.

Skype and sound on Ipad 3 distorting after ios7.02 upgrade

Hi, after I upgraded to ios 7.02 on my ipad, I couldn't skype normal, the sound is distorting as well as video playback, any ideas how to rectify?

Reset iPad
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
Note: Data will not be affected.

I've updated my ipad to iso7 now the sound is distorted through the speaker and headphones, it is unusable! Is anyone else having this problem?

I've updated my ipad to iso7 now the sound is distorted through the speaker and headphones, it is unusable! I wouldn't dare to update my iphone. Is anyone else having this problem? Can't seem to find any fixes online?

A reset should fix it:
Double click the Home button. Slide up with one finger on ALL your apps to close them.
Then, Press the Sleep/Wake button + Home button and hold 15 seconds or until you see the Apple logo.
This will reset your device without erasing data, apps or settings.

Sound is distorted and clicks! Logic Pro X, Mavericks on nMac pro

The sound is distorted in Logic Pro X, it sounds just like the Bitcrusher distortion FX in Logic set to 8bit is on all the time. I am using the built in sound card.
It is strange because when I use the Bitcrusher I can not go lower than 3bit, if I go lower the sound stops. On my old iMac with OS X Snow Leopard and Logic Pro 8 it is ok down to 1bit.
Sometimes the sound is also slightly out of tune.
I have reinstalled OS X Mavericks and Logic Pro X, reset NVRAM, PRAM, nothing helps so now I think that it is the sound card that is bad.
Sometimes the sound is better, but I can feel=hear that something is wrong when I compare with my old iMac that also use the built in sound card.
The sound is clicking sometimes with snappy sounds=fast attack envelopes, it has nothing to do with latency buffer settings , I have tried all that.
It never did that with Logic Pro 8 and my old iMac.
This is driving me crazy!
I am thinking of returning the New Mac Pro and get a new one because nothing helps.

Ok
here goes.
You need onyx software for this..
go here and get it (free) www.titanium.free.fr/downloadonyx.phphttp://
and drag it to your hardrive libary ..
right click the icon and choose allow software to open ...
run onyx...
when running first time onyx wil verify your hadrive ...after this ..choose clean ..and it will clean junk files and cache files. . update logic and try again . .

Distorted music and sound from headphone socket

I've just started having an issue with my iPod touch, which is just over one year old. Whenever playing sound (music, videos etc.) the sound is distorted and "echoey" from the headphone socket, unless I apply some pressure to the connection. When I let go of the connection, the distortion returns. I have tried different headphones, but this makes no difference to the problem. Playing music on speakers via the dock connection is problem-free.
Is this an issue I can do something about myself or will I have to go to an Apple store to have the iPod fixed? If it needs to be fixed, does anyone know how much this is likely to cost me?
Thanks for any suggestions or advice!

Hi Paul,
Make sure there is no debris in the headphone jack by connecting and disconnecting the headphones a few times, as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1575#faq7
If you iPod is still in warranty the repair may be free. This article: http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/faq/ provides more information about the iPod touch service options.

Occasionally, my sound gets distorted and slow, and the Notebook seems to slow or stop totally?

HP Envy 17 Notebook PC, Windows7 using Beats, no changes but has been doing it for months. Just never thought to ask before now. Could my problem be too many audio programs running, My Audio and Sound shows IDT Hi-Def CODEC, Intel(R) Display Audio, and ATI Hi-Def Audio Device all "Enabled" at the same time. Is this normal?

Is anybody knows what's the matter? Any ideas? Any experience?
Maybe I posted my problem in a wrong way.

Equium A110-276 DVD image and sound playback problems

A couple of months ago my Equium A110-276 stopped playing DVDs correctly.
The sound and images on the DVDs are slow, sometimes skip and are generally out of sync.
I downloaded the latest drivers however it didnt make any difference. If i stream a video from youtube for example the picture and sound are both fine.
Anyone think of anything I can do to fix it?!
Thanks
Siobhan

Hi
If the video stream looks ok then everything seems to be ok with the graphic card.
I think either there is something wrong with the CD/DVD driver or with the software itself.
I have investigated a little bit in this forum and found this thread regarding a very similar issue:

Satellite L650-11E The sound is distorted on my Laptop when I see videos..

I have a Satellite L650-11E.
When I see videos on youtube the sound gets distorted, almost beyond recognition.
I need help on this subject, I start to get desperate and a little annoyed with the time I wasted with this.

Please check if the iRST (Intel Rapid Storage Technology Driver) needs to be undated as described here.
+The sound / video playback of a media file is stuttering+

The iRST could stress the CPU and could cause the same issue.

The sound is distorted on my laptop?

The sound is distorted on my laptop, this has been since I have transferred photos and videos to it. I have run a sound and audio check but nothing was found.

Problem with recording and sound on Pavilion ze1000 series

I have an old Hp Pavilion ze 1250 running Windows XP (sp2) with 1gb Ram.
I'm trying to convert some cassette tapes to digital (with Audacity).
My problem: When I try to record using Audacity, it records about 10 seconds and then hangs. When I click Stop and try to play the 10 seconds back, it freezes and won't play anything. (After that, even if I import an mp3 file to work on, it won't play that either.) It also causes all the sound to go off throughout the computer. Songs will "play" in WMP but there's no sound in the speakers or headphones. (The Microsoft logo music won't play either when I turn the computer off.) I've tried resetting the volume and checking if anything is muted. Nothing .
I restart the computer and everything is fine.....sound works and Audacity plays.....until I try to record again.
I thought that this was only an Audacity problem....until I tried to record 60 seconds through Sound Recorder. The exact thing happens. It records about 10 seconds of audio, then freezes and refuses to playback. All the sound goes off throughout the computer and nothing solves it except Restart.
My sound/audio device is Conexant AC-Link Audio.
The Sound Playback, Sound Recording, Voice Playback, and Voice Recording are all defaulted to HP VIA Audio.
I have updated the audio driver. Recording is enabled. Is there something else I need to do?
Thanks.

Thank you for your reply.
I'll try some of those suggestions and see if that helps.

IOS 5 Sound Quality and Sound Check issues

So since upgrading my iPod to iOS 5 the sound quality of my music has deteriorated massively and sound check no longer works as it should.
Tracks sound crackly and audio volume will remain balanced for a few tracks when sound check is on, then all of a sudden become completely unbalanced and all over the place. My iPod is only just about useable, it's a bit of a disaster that its main feature doesn't work as it should.
Everything else in my iOS5 works as it should.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Richard.

Since I bought iPhone4 and listened my songs with "Ipod app" and external speakears I was amazed how brilliant, sharp, intense, clear, perfect bass, perfect trebble the sound was, there was no distortions or saturations ever... The sound quality was just PERFECT with the equalization OFF!!! Not remember if I had SoundCheck ON before but now it doesn't make any difference. I installed iOS 5 over 4.3.1 or so and now sound is just more like noise compared to iOS 4, I have selected all presets or equalizations but ALL are poor, maybe some presets work better with some songs but still they are poor.... Songs did not have clarity!! The volume force was like degraded, now I have to set higher volume to produce same force than before with less volume... iOS 5 max volume (100%) is like iOS 4.2.1 85-90% of volume. Difference is that iOS 5 maximum volume starts slightly to distort or saturate audio quality... before with iOS 4 sound quality was Crystal Clear even with max volume!!! In short SOUND QUALITY is DEGRADED... or perhaps I'm a very critical and nonconformist guy in terms of audio quality... this kind of degradation is quite notorious when one loves music!! or is there some other configuration I'm missing here??
Totally agree with Richard!!
At first I thought it was a problem with my phone... I used to believe iOS 5 was engineered for new iPhone 4S hardware and since it is shipped with dual-core processor, I thought my phone was short in resources!!!
Why max volume is lower in intensity???
Why equalization with the EQ Off changed?? All my songs were stored on iTunes, they must have same sound quality properties as they were when first ripped..
I hope Apple enginneers did not sacrifice volume output force in favor of saving some battery, because normally we charge battery when listening music at home with our personal speakers equipment.
I would like to understand the reasons why the new "Music App" was "changed", and why these changes have to go backwards!! That is sad... because for iPhone or iPod lovers music was always important.
thanks
