  • Video and audio problem after upgrade of Sierra.

    After that each OS upgrade that I know it's going to be a few problems, so I wasn't surprised when this happened with Sierra. Most have been quickly resolved by common sense, but I have a biggie that remains. Mainly, but not only, it occurs during playback of videos and translates into a serious attack.

    When you use: -.

    Google Chrome Version 53.0.2785.116 (64-bit);

    When you watch a video, I hear a short hissing sound with a rising intonation (or sometimes 2 these sounds) then the text is added to a search bar (sometimes this text contains the words drawn from what someone says in the video!), or the video play suddenly disappears and a new tab opens and opens a page of Google apps. By clicking on the symbol left back page Apps and re - opens the original video that starts playing from the beginning again.

    This happens also in Chrome when it suffice to read a web page.

    In Safari 10.0 (12602.1.50.0.10)

    When occurs sound even watch videos in Safari 10.0 (12602.1.50.0.10), and the small text boxes appear at the top of the screen for a few moments contains comments such as "Hide this app", or "Undo that" before disappearing again.

    and audio in iTunes 12.5.1.21

    The same thing is happening in iTunes or when playing the iStore clips or songs in my library. The same small text boxes are displayed at the top middle of the screen containing cryptic messages such as "click 308' disappearing quickly. Sometimes the ' find and Replace window appears with more cryptic phrases in ' are are are ' not found! This occurs every 3-4 minutes.

    When you use Pages 6.0, a doc Pages will disappear and will appear in the folder from which it was opened. Or Graphic Converter 8, an image suddenly disappears and will open the Finder.

    I ran Etrecheck that says everything has been "excellent". I ran disk utility: first aid, who said there is corruption, he couldn't fix it and is running in recovery mode. I did, and the glitches always come back.

  • Envy 14 update of windows 8 1050ca, graphics and audio problems.

    After the installation of windows 8, my graphics and audio drivers are two no-shows. "This device cannot start.

    I noticed the thread referenced here for this problem of graphics and we tried everything suggested this back and forth so far without success. In General, if compatibility is set to windows 7, as suggested, it never even finished installing. Just, it freezes and sits there indefinitely.

    Is there something else to what can be done?

  • Canon MXF files and Audio problems

    I recently bought a Canon XF-300 camcorder to use my CS5 Premiere Pro system.

    I guess that the XF-300 would create a huge video file until I turned off the machine.

    Instead, he represents several in MXF 2 GB files and every time I have to start/stop the camcorder a new video file is created.

    And what makes it worse, is that it puts each MXF file in a folder.

    When I turn a long clip there are problems with editing several clip 2 GB as opposed to a clip of 13 GB that I used to get with tape.

    I use the XF utility to only transfer the video files from my CF card on my hard drive.

    Then I perfer to use Pr to concatinate MXF separate files into a single file MP2 wasting a lot of time.

    Is there something I could do with the camcorder of the XF utility to join a large file?

    Also when I put a MXF file a sequence Pr stero audio track that I'm used from a band splits into 2 separate tracks.

    One seems to be mono left and the other right mono.

    When I combine them into an MP2 file, I get a mono soundtrack.

    How do I get stero sound track?

    Francis,

    The manual I have:

    Merge all Clips = merges the flow MXF files in each clip and also merges multiple files selected in a single file.

    Merger of each Clip = merges the flow MXF files in each clip but retains several selected files in a different way.

    With regard to the problem of audio:

    In Premiere Pro CS6, you can set the Audio tracks by default for your stereo import instead of double mono/multi-channel mono media files. I don't know if it was an option in CS5, but I think that it is not.

    In CS6 you do the following:

    1. edit > Preferences > Audio ("' Premiere Pro > Preferences > Audio" Mac ")

    2 under default Audio tracks, change multi-channel Mono Media 'Use the file' in 'Stereo '.

    3 click OK.

    Note that this will not affect already imported clips. This setting affects preferably clip when you import.

  • Internet connection and Audio problems

    My HP Pavilion Dv7-4009tx Entertainment Notebook PC works perfectly since it was resolved a month ago, he got a new DVD player and has been reset back to the factory setting. It was smooth sailing for a month and then stupidly a problem. I turned on one morning to find he is slow to start and then when he did finally start a note came saying 'failed to connect to A Windows Service' after a quick search on the net I found a solution for this and solved this problem but it has not solved the other two problems I have now.

    It is one of the question that I have now, it's funny because my laptop only use the build in speakers. Then I thought maybe because I could find something to fix, but so far nothing has worked.

    And the other problem, my Internet connection is non-existent and even after checking on the net he had anything that actually worked.

    Is there really a possible solution to these problems? I can also provide more screen shots if needed, just tell me.

    Note: Ignore the isn't the battery icon, I currently do not have a battery that works.

    Wow, your system is really messed up.

    OK... what I would do is a "reimage" of your system. In other words, reinstall the operating system. Backup your important files on an external device.

    You should be able to perform what is called an "Image system recovery" as mentioned here. Restart the computer and press F8 a bunch of times until a menu will appear (the Advanced Boot Options menu) and select repair your computer. The rest is on this page that I linked. Click "View all" at the bottom of the page linked to learn more.

    Your system must have a HP recovery partition has set up to do this, you can at least go back to square one and have a fresh start.

  • Ever since I started to update to 34.0.5 I have known many audio problems.

    Since Firefox updated to 34.0.5, I have known many video and audio problems. At first, I couldn't play the videos at all, but install Shockwave Flash, which sets. All my videos play in silence. I've updated my plugins (Quicktime and VLC were the only ones to ask for an update) should not have solved the problem because I do not believe that I was actually using these plugins at the time, but nevertheless, it seems to have worked. Now I can play videos with sound, but the quality of this noise is severely reduced and even sometimes staticky. What gives?

    These are the same products - 'adobe flash player' is the consumer in the face of term "shockwave flash" the technical name...

  • How can I get my webcam and microphone on my samsungN102-JA01 to work

    I'm trying to get up my webcam on a samsung N102-JA01 settings and also the microphone doesn't seem to be able to work the two devices are built I tried the Device Manager and had no luck please help me

    Hi Rebecca,.

    OK, a couple of things different on your workstation. First, it was created in the Microsoft answers Site Feedback Forum. This is the section dedicated to questions about the site itself and not necessarily computer issues. The moderation team has moved your question to the images and video Forum where the answers community can consider your question and provide assistance on this issue.

    Second, make sure you have the latest device drivers for the webcam and audio drivers (in fact your video drivers as well if they are separated) for version approprieate of the operating system that you use. You can get those for the manufacturer's website.

  • Pavilion dv6 problem with webcam and microphone

    Hello
    I have a HP Pavilion dv6-6156ea, which is a little more than a month.  It runs Windows 7 Home Premium.
    Today, tried to use the webcam and microphone for the first time, a Skype call, but none of them does not seem to work.
    The webcam is not displayed in Device Manager, but the microphone is.
    When I opened Cyberlink Youcam, it does not recognize that there is an internal webcam.
    What should I do to activate the microphone and the cam?

    I followed the link below and follow the instructions.  But the webcam is not displayed in Device Manager.

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c02452221

    Because is not find the device, I don't know how to update the drivers.

    I don't know how to solve the problem with the microphone.  I don't know if these things are likely to be associated.

    Any help appreciated

    Thank you

    Feel a little silly answering myself, but no one responded and I thought it is best to share what I found out.

    The webcam was defective, straight out of the box.

    And the microphone is connected to these features, but uses a different driver - if your microphone works, it could be a sign that your problem is with the driver for the cam.

    I bought the PC world a month ago, so there was although it is very busy.  It was the second faulty webcam in HP they had returned today - most early was a dv7.  There was no problem with replace - they took a glance, considered to be the installation of the drivers on a disc, but when it was not displayed in Device Manager and the microphone works not more, they knew right away.

    It really shows control of very poor quality of Hewlett-Packard.  It's a shame that in the first weeks, I was really happy with this model, but realistically, now I know that this is what looks like their QC, when my company needs its next piece I'll go with anything other than HP.
