Jerky video even with 4 GB of RAM

When I try to watch video on the TNT network I get spurts.  Have a system Dell 2.4 GHz, 4 gig RAM Vista Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600.  Usually isn't the problem, but sometimes have problems with some other videos.  Some on YouTube (not often).  Thank you.

Hello

Use the startup clean and other methods in this troubleshooting to try to improve the
performance. Check with Dell Support, their documentation online and drivers,
and ask in their forums known issues. If your video device made my ATI.
NVIDIA, or another important supplier with their own sites can also check with
their support to the pilots and known issues - ask in their forums (if any).

Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

-Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
each installation.

Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
necessary.

Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
manually by model.

Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
get new manually if you wish.

Refer to these discussions because many more excellent advice however don't forget to check your antivirus

    64-bit is a little faster IF you have more than the minimum amout of ram. 64 bit min is 2 GB and 64-bit uses more resources than 32-bit.

    I doubt you will see any gain and might even see a loss.  If you can not buy pass more ram, this isn't worth it.

  • Hello, I want to build several video clips with more than 500 images (pictures) of each clip. I need to apply a different video transition effect to each photo. It might even be random effects. I see that I can apply a unique to all p transition effect

    Hello, I want to build several video clips with more than 500 images (pictures) of each clip. I need to apply different transitions video effects by alternating each photo. It could be random effects. I see that I can apply a unique pictures transition effect at the same time, but how to apply different transitions not one by one? I could do a clip applying different transitions manually as I wish between hundreds of photos, but I would like to be able to repeat all the transitions of a new video by changing only the photos. Is this possible? Or a tool to apply random transition effects between photos? Or a way to automate the actions to apply different transitions similar to what we can do in Photoshop? Thank you!

    But how to apply different transitions not one by one?

    You can not.

    If you wish to make a slideshow with all the transitions better fantasies use something like Pro Show gold.

    Alt drag window project replaces clip/still on the timeline.

    Windows has put ram side so he can use, my Win 7 SP1 has about 3 GB it uses.

  • How to capture (record) streaming video online with his partner is on El Capitan?

    Someone can advise or recommend including many different programs available that I must use to capture (record) streaming video online with it's associated audio on El Capitan?  I tried MacX DVD Converter Pro, but believe it or not, it does not record the audio aspect of video stream.  They claim there is a work around, but after 3 days of trying various corrections, none seems to work for me.

    I tried the Safe Mode Terminal command string: turn off the csrutil. restart, but which did not allow audio capture of MacX DVD Converter Pro driver to install their Audio System driver.

    I tried sudo nvram boot-args = "kext-dev = 1 mode" method, but then again, playback of the recorded video was silent, even though I have heard the audio during recording. "

    I downloaded SOUNDFLOWER, but again, I have heard audio when the screenshot, but Quicktime playback was silent.

    I have hard to believe after that 3 days I am still unable to record what I see and hear at the same time on my screen a video streaming like a Charlie Rose interview with Martin Scorcese discussing Felini.  I don't like what it costs; I care only about the easy, professional and perfect results.  One of the two reasons why I BOUGHT this iMac 27 "with El Capitan was so I COULD record streaming video with audio if I choose so, and after a month, I still can't do and I ran out of the online help after searching dozens of sites to find answers!  So I now turn to the Apple community.  Thank you!

  • How to connect the video cable with Qosmio G50

    Hello

    I bought the Qosmio G50-11s and received a video cable with it. (Jack mini jack RCA Red/white/yellow) But I find no way to connect it to my laptop, not the manual or all online resources talks about it. The problem is that I need to capture video from my VCR to my laptop and normal TV antenna comes with a lot of noise, so I have to use video in the cable. Any ideas?

    Thank you
    M

    Hello

    In the past I made some experiences with it. I wanted to create DVD copy old VHS VCR equipment. Using the recorder even? I did this on Qosmio G30 but the principle is the same.

    The fact is that you need to send the signal to the laptop and to do this you must use the video port.
    I do not see that your Qosmio has several of them, so I think that the only way to send the signal to your laptop is to use the antenna port. What video output port you want to use on your recorder?

    What I do need to update the ram of the laptop computer or is the problem of something that can be fixed with software recording cleaning?
    Thanks for any help on this!

    If you did a clean install, it is not the registry slow down your computer. A clean installation removes all and back windows on the system with just windows files, so the registry is only what is absolutely need to run.

    128 MB of RAM is incredibly low, so even if the slowness is caused by something else, you should buy more in any case, because it will help the computer a little.

  • In Movie Maker 6.0 can a video clip (with mute) be spliced in another video clip so it seems to work with the original sound of the first video?

    Hi, I put a video together for my MOM to 70th and one of her friends has provided a video clip of her playing a classical piece on the piano for several minutes.  I would like to cover this clip with other video sequences (landscapes, etc.) whereas the way piano since the main video track in the background.
    I tried to let fall the piano video file directly in the audio editing panel and then cut a second 20 segment in the video editing and insert a 20 second video (mute) images of landscape. However, the piano audio from the first video stops as soon as the strike chronology inserted piece landscape and picks up again when it ends, even if the audio scenario shows the audio piano continuously?  Am I missing a step or is this not possible?   Thank you very much.

    It should work quite as much as you described in Windows Movie Maker 6.0 (WMM 6.0), then maybe there is a step that is missed.  Let me describe how I could do and see if there's something you overlooked.

    First of all, I assume that you have already imported the clip of piano and your other clips of landscape in your collection then you can drag the there where necessary.  First, drag the piano music to the track Audio / Music in the timeline panel.  Note that if you have your video extended timeline, it will show video, Transition & Audio, but you want to get off- below that, to the Audio / Music , to follow.  At this point if you play your 'film', you should not to see any picture but just to hear the sound of the piano.  You should also only see a waveform on the audio / music.

    Now you can put anything you want on the video track.  Let's start by putting another copy of the original video of piano, but this time on the video track.  If you have developed the video track (to see the Vidéo/Audio/Transition) you will see the video piano and its associated audio waveform.  However, in your case, since you already have the audio separated, you want to cut that his partner.  Right-click on the Audio (attached to the video) track and select Muteor use the menus (Clip > Audio > Mute).

    When you preview the project, you have synchronized video browsing with the original copy of the audio piano.  At the point in the video where you want to replace the video with another piano play, making a split (key M).  Make another split at the end of the section.  It is very import that select you the video track when you add new divisions and you have not also be divide the track Audio / Music .

    Important: You want to make sure this divide the part that has the exact duration as well as landscape images, you want to replace.  So if you have 20 seconds to add, you divide 20 seconds piano images.

    Right-click on the part of piano footage (video track) and choose Remove.  Then, insert the part of sequences of landscape (also on the video track) in its place.  Once again, you will have need put this added sequence muted landscape (Clip > Audio > Mute).

    You should now see and hear the piano play.  Without any change in the audio playback in the preview window should implement the landscape images, then returns to piano images.

    If you find that your project is not behaving correctly after these splits, but are you sure that you have followed these steps, it could be a problem with your video file types.  If in doubt, try to convert all your videos to .wmv format using something like Freemake Video Converter (freemake.com)

    In any case, I hope that you are able to achieve, because it is certainly possible.  Good luck and post back with further questions or information, you can have.
