Ubuntu Installation :: Upgrade To 10.04 - No Audio On Web Video / Get That?
Apr 11, 2011
since i upgrade my pc to 10.04 lucid i cannot get any audio when i play videos on the web. i can have tried videos, comcast, hulu, etc... the video plays just fine, but no audio. i can go to apple.com and play videos just fine with audio. i can play any other audio just fine (mp3's, cd's, etc...). so i have narrowed it down to possibly a flash player issue. i have tried flashplayer-nonfree, flashplugin, etc... and no luck. here is where it gets weird. i saw a similar post and they tried creating a new account and it worked. so i tried that. i created a test account and all of the videos play just fine without any issue.
does anyone know if there is a way to rebuild or repair an account in ubuntu? i have checked all of the group memberships and they all match the new account that i setup.

I have a Dell Dimension 2350 with an Intel 82845G Graphics controller that is connected to a 15" Craig flat screen television via VGA. It has absolutely no issue running at the television's peak of 1280x720 at 60 Hz with Windows XP. When I first discovered Ubuntu, I immediately tried to install it. After a tedious month of failed attempts, I resolved to doing what I opposed: using Wubi. I did not want to use Wubi because I wanted Ubuntu on a separate partition.
This is where my issue is. After installing Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx, I rebooted and started normally. I noticed that audio was present but all I saw was a blank "No Signal" screen on my television. I waited for over an hour, to no avail.computer was responsive. This was obvious when the computer released audio when a button was blindly pressed. I reinstalled after waiting even more, suspecting a failed install. I then used the failsafe graphics upon pressing escape after my third failed install. This worked, but it gave me an unsightly 640x480 resolution. I did my best to fix this, but it came to a dead halt with an error I could not fix: a CRTC error.
I then installed Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala without an an issue. Everything was perfect except for the fact that I did not have the most updated Operating System even though it was free. I decided to to update 10.04 via Update Manager, thinking that all would go well. It did not. My mistake in updating brought me back to the drawing board.My official Ubuntu 10.04 Compact Disc arrived in the mail yesterday. When I hit "Install" I eventually end up at the same "No Signal" screen

After upgrade to 11.04, my headphones won't work when connected to the front audio jack. I checked alsamixer and they aren't muted. Switching to "analog headphones" on the volume icon didn't did anything. I can only get audio from the rear port.

I just upgraded to 11.04, and apart from an initial freakout because I didn't realize why all my settings were borked*, I haven't had any difficulties... until today. I ran my virtual WinXP machine (VirtualBox) to watch some streaming Netflix, and the sound didn't work. Sound still works under Ubuntu just fine. No idea why it didn't survive in my virtual machine.
I noticed when I started that it said there was an upgrade for the VirtualBox software, so I did that, but that didn't fix it either. I'm using PusleAudio for the Host Driver and ICH AC97 for the audio controller on my virtual XP machine. These worked before the upgrade, now... not so much. I tried switching the driver to ALSA and the controller to SoundBlaster 16 (and other different available combos, etc), to no avail.
* It turns out that crap pile, Unity, did away with all my nice custom panel layouts and configs and replaced them with something ugly, unwanted, and non-intuitive. I'm using "Ubuntu Classic" now because Unity is horrible.

I have a video file in which the audio runs faster than the video, so they quickly go out of sync. The way to fix it would be to separate the audio and video streams, speed up the video (the audio is FINE, it's the video that's wrong), and then recombining them. What is the easiest way for doing that?

Is there an application that anyone knows about that I can use to convert either an .flv or .ogg file that contains both audio and video to just an audio .ogg file (preferably vorbis+theora) without audacity? I'm fairly certain audacity could accomplish this but it seems like overkill for what I'm trying to do and the computer I'm trying to use does not run it so well.
::EDIT:: I should also mention that I've tried looking on google. I did find downloadhelper extension for firefox which uses ffmpeg to convert the files but I don't see any obvious way to strip the video.

I used Update Manager to upgrade an NVIDIA-based machine from version 9-something to 10.04.
Windows now have NO titlebar !
If I screw around with Visual Effects, the title bars come back but only temporarily and system video display is extremely sluggish. CPU usage is very high due to some process named compiz or xcorg. Upgrades always seem to self-destruct, is this fixable?

Each time after boot up from hibernation I see notification that "Ubuntu is running in low-graphics mode". I tried to solve the problem as usual but this time I can not resolve it.I haven't expected this problem on new boot or restart. I suppose that the problem is in incorrect video driver or something else.Could you please share your experience how to resolve my problem? How can I upgrade video driver for GMA 3150 supporting?

When I ran the distribution upgrade from 9.04 in update manager, my screen went blank on reboot and will not recover. Every time I reboot, screen goes blank. I cannot press CTRL-ALT F1 - F6 to gain access to text shells.
I tested booting from the 9.04 live CD and it works fine. So I downloaded the 9.10 live cd on another computer and booted it on the disabled system. Same exact problem on the live CD that I had upon installation: on boot screen goes black and cannot access text shells.
What can I do next to get out of this short of going back to 9.04, which has problems that I do not want to live with?

Ran preupgrade for F11 to F12. Everything ok there it seemed. Upon reboot, it started booting the kernel, then the video disappeared, no signal to monitor. After about 15min, I just rebooted and managed to get make to Fedora 11.
Considering just going with DVD upgrade. I googled preupgrade no video and here as well, and several unrelated things seemed to come up.
Edit: video nvidia 8400gs
proc AMD 4000+

Setting up a linux based church server to be placed with a collocation host.
-- Server will be used for:
--- providing .pdf files
--- live streaming of church services (audio for now audio video soon)
--- providing audio files
--- providing audio-video files
--- our internet web site
A. Is there a preferred Linux distribution that will make this easier?
B. What is the best format for audio and video files that will be viewed variously on Linux, Mac, and Microsoft operating systems? Files will need to be played on older versions of operating systems and may need a free or very low cost software to play (e.g. play on Win2k)
C. What software is best for recording the audio or audio-video files? Some additional funding might be justified for this software, particularly if it can also support live streaming.
D. What software is best for live streaming both on the file creation and the listening-viewing sides of the process?
Ideally we would like to have a single software suite to live stream, and make downloadable audio or audio-video files for later download, and not require those listening and viewing to have to install additional software. Keeping file sizes small is also desirable because some of our users will probably only have dial-up internet.

To get multimedia working, or explain what I'm doing wrong.
The problem is that none of the video players doesn't play video, they show only black window and play audio.
I have Fedora 11 Leonidas, fully up-to-date.
I have installed rpmfusion and livna repository.
I have installed following packages:
When I try to play video with totem, it doesn't output any error, but just doesn't play video.
with mplayer:
xine and kaffeine just say:
vlc:
I tried several different files, which works perfectly in windows and ubuntu.
I installed windows binary codecs for mplayer to /usr/lib/codec/

I have a Dell Inspiron 1525, X-UB 8.04. Audio: I want to be able to turn the volume up or down, I cannot find any control that does this. Video brightness: this has 2 settings in BIOS, (a) on battery (b) on
AC power. From time to time something (I have no idea what) turns the (b) setting down from 8 to 2 and the screen becomes very murky. The only way I know to fix this is to shut down & restart & go into the BIOS & turn it back up. Is there a way to reset (b) without having to shut down & restart? Is there a way to discover what bit of S-ware is the culprit?

when i had windows xp i used to convert almost any videos video into audio (the whole video into audio) by going to [url], downloading vdownloader and just inserting the url in the box provided; waiting for a couple of minutes and having an mp3 format file at the location that i want it to be in the desktop. when i searched for something similar for linux, because vdownloader was an .exe file and obviously wasn't going to work on ubuntu.
i found that i could get a video downloaded from videos but not an audio - i wait for the video to finish buffering; click on places; computer; file system; tmp; then rename the video folder and copy/relocate it to where ever on the desktop. ending with this video format "flash video (video/x-flv)". my question is: is there a linux program where i get to convert the entire video format to an audio format, possibly mp3?

Is there a video editor that also allows me to edit the audio. For example I have 2 videos and want to take the audio from one clip and add it to the other clip. I have tried Avidemux and Pitivi but these don't seem to have this ability.

For some reason, I cannot record video with cheese. I cannot record video and audio on ....., just video. I can record audio on sound recorder. Why can't I get both? I have an e-machines (acer)em-250, 2g ram, 2ghz intel atom processor. Using Moon Os 4 neak (ubuntu 10.10 variant). I have downloaded and installed ffmpeg, and all other codecs. I can also get video on google voice and video, but no audio. Obviously I have a built-in webcam and mic. I've had this problem with every ubuntu distro I've tried since Oct. of 2010. This netbook came with Win. xp, and I had no problems with this issue then. I would just REALLY like to be able to use my webcam and be able to record video and audio.

i don't know if this is an ubuntu problem or kde problem, but... yesterday, i put my computer into hibernation with a few programs open...one of them was vlc; i had a video paused when i went into hibernation. when i booted back into it, my audio wasn't working for anything... system sounds, programs, flash video online, etc. i went into the sound options and noticed that the 'test' button was giving me sound for hda intel (alc268 analog) but not for pulse audio...well, for a while now, my programs tells me 'hda intel not working, falling back on pulse audio' or some such thing...which is why it's so odd that hda intel is working when i click 'test' in the options but pulse isn't. but it still falls back on pulse for every program, and since pulse isn't giving me any sound......
i'm not getting audio and i don't know how to fix it. hda intel hasn't been working properly for a while, but again, falling back on pulse still worked so i was always too lazy to learn how to fix that. oddly enough, i did manage to get it working again with amarok...at first nothing was outputting sound, but now amarok is working again. but that's it - nothing in vlc, videos isn't making sound, no pidgin im noises, no startup and shutdown sounds, nothing. it's very baffling. all i know is that when i booted back in from hibernation, my volume controls were muted and my internet wouldn't let me connect and said 'networking disabled'. i had to restart to get that working again and i thought nothing of it until i noticed i had no audio.
