I only get sound but no image or picture on YouTube-what to do?

I only get sound but no image or picture on YouTube-what to do?
I now use 'Chrome' browser whenever I want to visit YouTube,
I do not wish to use 2 browsers and I want to stay only with Firefox.
I tried several solutions without success.
Help!

YouTube is generally serving Firefox users the HTML5 player now instead of Flash player. You can check that one you get by right clicking on the drive and runs the inspection of the line at the bottom of the context menu. As patches are probably completely different for both players, it would be useful to know the problem.

There is also an add-on, you can use to switch the player if you want to try it (so it is easier to do using built-in YouTube settings): https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/youtube-flash-video-player/

  • Reading DVD on WMP11 Get Sound, but NO VIDEO

    I tried to play a DVD from a television series onWMP 11. I have Windows Vista Edition ed. basic family. I got sound but no video. After some research, I thought I had to install a DVD decoder, so I bought one of Roxio (CinePlay, in my view, is the name of decoder or something like that.)  Now I get (ironically) sound, but no video. Cannot understand this.
    BTW, I also have RealPlayer installed. Before that I installed Roxio DVD decoder, I got a message saying that I had to install a DVD decoder. Now that I've installed it, RealPlayer works very well.
    I would like to get WMP 11 also work.
    Thanks for any help that can be given!

    Hi uomo_italiano,

    (a) you are able to play videos recorded without any problems? You see the video?

    (b) you get a specific error message?

    I suggest you try the following steps:

    Step 1: Try to reduce (or turn off) video hardware acceleration by following these steps.

    1. open display settings by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, on appearance and customization, personalization, and then clicking display settings.

    2. click on advanced settings, click the Troubleshooting tab, and then click on change settings.

    Note: some video card drivers do not allow allows you to change the settings.

    3. move the hardware acceleration slider to none to reduce or turn off video hardware acceleration.

    Check whether the problem is resolved.

    Step 2: I understand that you have installed the Roxio DVD decoder; You can download and install the DivX video codec on the internet and test.

    For example, if you try to play a file that was encoded using the DivX (digital video express) video codec and you do not have this codec installed on your computer, you will probably hear the audio portion of the file, but you will not see the video.

    Note: Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

  • Movie maker, xp (sp3), makes part only audio video (but not images) for mpeg files.

    With my computer, XP Sp3, I converted the files MOD ofJVC Everio HDD camera to MPG or MPEG using the software, SDcopy.

    Media Player accepts these files to play movies very well, but Movie maker shows not all images, only the audio...

    My other computer with the same operating system has no problem - but this Movie maker is a slightly older version.

    I suspect that there are some differences of codec in both computers?

    Hello
     
    1. what happens when you transfer these convert to another computer? Play?
    2. converted the file has been correctly?
    3. do you get an error during the file playback?
    4. which media player you use to play the files?
     
    Method 1.
    First check if you are able to read these files on another computer. If the problem occurs on a different computer too so I wouold recommend you to download the latest version of movie maker.
     
     
    Method 2.
    If you think that it is a problem of codecs refer:

  • System Restore get sound but then left after a day or two

    Sometimes (this happens more often lately) when I turn on my computer, all the sounds are gone. When I run the system recovery, the problem is corrected, but after a day or two, the sound disappeared again. The only noise which is not affected is the very done beep when the loader is fired. How can I solve this problem?

    Just guessing but if the system restore fix the noise
    problem and after a day or two it goes again I
    assume you have all Windows updates
    Automatic and a new driver or update is in
    several times, downloaded and the origin of the problem.

    Hi Jason

    Thanks for providing the dxdiag.

    To disable hardware acceleration, just add the threshold at the end of the file (mms.cfg):

    DisableHardwareAcceleration = 1

    Also, while your changes if you get an error similar to: "the file is already in use", follow the procedure; below

    1 copy the file to another location(for eg desktop)

    2. then make the necessary changes, then save the file

    3. copy the file to the original location.

    Thank you

  • Cannot get sound on the computer

    Original title: I'm not all sounds on my computer. I download updated audio contraption and still no sound. Can someone help me please? I tried all day get the sound on my computer. Thank you.

    I tried to get a sound from my computer, I did everything possible to get sound, but nothing works. I also download the updated audio thingy but still no sound. I am not connect speakers to my computer, I am using only the speakers located in the monitor. Can anyone help please? I am at my witts end (lol). Thank you in advance.

    Hello, I actually paid $59.00 to Hp technical support to only know that when I buy this computer, it came with speakers, so I never received the special cable that was supposed to come with the computer to hear the sound of the computer/monitor itself. Everything on this computer works properly I just need to connect my speakers. I was trying just to hear the sound through the computer, but if I don't want to connect speakers, I'll have to buy that cord/cable wire necessary to do this. Google it and you can probably find ways to reconnect if possible. Good luck, I know how frustrating it can be.

    As you don't give any information about your computer operating system or software, all I could suggest is to install a codec Pack.

    you need the XviD Codec.

  • No sound on HDMI, image works fine but in the sound Manager tells me not connected HDMI

    Hello

    I have a 1050ez tm2 and having problems with my HDMI port.

    When I connect the screen gets automatically duplicated and everything works fine, but when I try to play a movie with vlc for example I get not all sound through the TV, only on the tablet.

    Of course, I went into the sound Manager, because I suspected that you specify the tm2 where to play the sound, but to my surpise, he said that the HDMI cable is not connected?

    I was able to make any changes to the default output device...

    Even in the IDT application wants to tell me that the HDMI cable is not connected. I have plugged in and out several times without success.

    I hope someone can help me on what precedes, I already searched the net for several hours but havn't seen a similar problem, the more problems it shows as connected cable...

    Thanks in advance!

    Hey Red552mimi,

    Have you tried to increase the zoom? This is a good option if everything on the page, in addition to text, is too small. Just hit CTRL and + a few times to zoom in. CTRL and 0 will set the zoom back to normal.

    If you just want to change the font size, you should watch section of the Knowledge Base on the accessibility in Firefox - make Firefox and work of content for all users. There are lots of good information in there.

    In regards to your sound problem, have you looked at what to do if Firefox will play all of the sounds and difficulty common audio and video questions?

    Hope this helps!
