  • Why do embeded presentations from Prezi no longer work?

    Embeded interactive presentations from Prezi no longer work, when viewed on Firefox. They still work fine, when viewed on Google. This is a problem whether I am signed on or not.

    You can try basic steps like these in case of issues with web pages:
    Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
    *Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
    *Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
    *Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)
    Clear the cache and the cookies from websites that cause problems.
    "Clear the Cache":
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
    "Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

    Note that your System Details List shows that you have a user.js file in the profile folder to initialize some prefs on each start of Firefox.
    The user.js file is only present if you or other software has created it, so normally it wouldn't be there.
    You should check its content with a plain text editor if you didn't create this file yourself.
    The user.js file is read each time you start Firefox and initializes preferences to the value specified in this file, so preferences set via user.js can only be changed temporarily for the current session.

  • Can videos from my dropbox be played on sony blu ray dvd player BDP S580?

    can videos from my dropbox be played on sony blu ray dvd player BDP S580?

    Hello ptsotsos, thank you for your message. Welcome to SONY Community!
    Unfortunately the Blu-ray disc player cannot play videos from dropbox. When the Internet video device is connected to an active network connection, you can browse web sites or surf the Internet. However, the built-in browser is not designed to replace the web browsing functionality of a computer.
    NOTE: Web pages may not display correctly and some web functions such as downloading or saving Internet content may not work properly.
    Hopefully this post helps you!

  • Encoded video doesn't work on Toshiba Blu-ray disc player

    I have a problem that I am trying to encode a sequence of frames in a video container , but the encoded video doesn't work on toshiba blu ray disc player .. I am using the following ffmpeg command to encode frames and convert them to a video:
    ffmpeg -i "C:\ManVsWigan\Frames\%d.png" -vcodec libx264 "C:\ManVsWigan\encoded.mp4"
    I tried multiple video codecs but no luck yet
    "-vcodec mpeg4"
    "-vcodec mpeg2video"
    If you have any idea please help me

    The BluRay player leverages parts of Windows DirectShow but won't serve very well as a general player since Windows will load other players for the majority of media formats.
    You can get away with a limited amount of tampering of the BluRay's players tolerance of media files until you violate some far away written DRM safeguard and kneecapping the BluRay player from doing anything.
    If you're trying to validate your ffmpeg composed tests of your content as part of the editing process, you're better to avoid relying on the BluRay player that is purposed for narrow replay of licensed content and equipped with oversensitive safeguards susceptible to malfunctioning from the invasions of video pirates like you defined by studio executives.
    You and I understand you're not a pirate but chances aren't being taken.
    Whether you just dowloaded FFmep in the macho exe format or part of the millions of other packages that include it, you can tune your players to codecs pretty easily with the KLite Codec Manager or the Registry.
    Chances are you already know about KLite since editing video on Windows eventually requires it and its hard to walk down the street without eventually kiceking over a copy. But just in case you've been living on a Martian cave with your hands over your ears, snag a mirrored copy from: http://codecguide.com /download_kl.htm
    I like KLite more than others because it is fairly unobtrusive and avoids stomping over other media tools the way Adobe Premiere or Sony Vegas enslaves Windows and can neuter BluRay codecs without always adequately replacing them. I can cite threads on the matter but just googling for anything such as "Adobe Premier killed my BluRay" or "Sony Vegas ruined Windows" will usually return desperate strings of posts long enough to wrap around Jupiters equator.
    For general maintenance of Windows poor codec management, grab this noninstalling executable http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/installed_codec.html to determine if Windows believes it has the same codecs you thought it did and you'll likely be surprised by the fine tuning you'll need to perform.

  • Blu Ray yet for DVD Studio Pro?

    I haven't asked recently about burning Blu Ray discs in a new version
    of DVD SP, so here I am asking again: Has anyone heard any scuttlebutt
    about a possible upgrade of DVD SP 4 to allow to burn HDV FCP QT movies
    to Blu Ray discs? Toast 10 has been working fine for me so far, but curious
    if Apple has hinted at changing their minds and endorsing Blu Ray as an
    option?

    I do bet my business on it. But by the sme token, having a business means making sure you have back-ups and rotating hard drives also. I had some of the first CDs ever made, and many of them are failing, even some of the more recent ones from the mid-1990s. And these do not include the burn your own.
    Blu-ray as a storage method makes no sense to me personally. Right now they each hold 25 Gigs (as you said), which means 40 of them - or $280 - for one Terrabyte. You can get 2 1.5 terrabyte drives for $200 and they will take up alot less room than 40 blu-ray discs.
    I would bet neither hard drives or blu-ray will be around in 20 years, and if I was going to bet, it will be alot shorter than that. It will be SSD, Compact Flash, downloads and whatever follows. blu-ray and DVD will be like my Zip drives, Jaz drives or VideoDiscs.
    If anyone has a business that deals with media storage where it is important, I would steer them away from DVD/blu-ray and tell them to get a good RAID 1 external, with automatic mirroring, three hard drives and rotate them with one copy off-site. There are enclosures where they a popped in and out like floppies and you store them in something similar to a VCR case.
    Like I said, YMMV.

    Since upgrade of IOS, my once dependable camera connection kit will only import landscape photos from my Sony Alpha DSLR, but red exclaimation symbol only for portrait format. Any ideas why?
    I am using an ipad2 with the latest operating system upgrade. My problems started with the upgrade to v6. Before that, portrait and landscape pics were uploaded from camera with no problems.

    Hi,
    I'm from germany so no 'best buy' but I think I will lock around sleeve/bag for a different product with same measures. Any tip?
    The clear plastic case is not what I want. I would like to use the player without such protections. I just want a sleeve to protect the player while its in my jacket/pants.
    Btw, i have bought this version: Creative Zen (maybe european version?). I also doesn't seem to have your mentioned sleeve. I also couldn't find it on the website.
    Anyway, thank you,

  • DVD Burned from iDVD 6.0.1 plays on iMac but not a DVD player?

    After burning a DVD production on DVD-RW and DVD+RW CDs and both directly from iDVD and by first creating a disc image. In all cases they worked on my iMac but none of them worked on the DVD player. Only the DVD+RW is compatible with the player and it appears the DVD starts to load but can not finish the process. Is there something I missed or is there a bug in iDVD 6.0.1?
    The iDVD production was made from scratch using Magic iDVD and some video files. The Map has no errors and there where no error messages.

    Is there something I missed or is there a bug in iDVD 6.0.1?
    The bug is probably the format you're burning to...
    Use DVD-R. I'd recommend Verbatim DVD-R burned at 4x or slower. I'll bet that will play just fine...as long as the DVD player is relatively new (2-3 years old).

  • Dvds made from idvd are sometimes incompatible with PCs

    I work in a university setting that has a mix of mac and pcs. I make the dvds using iDVD but am running into problems when they get played on pcs. Is there a preference or something special I can do when I know it will be played on those systems?

    Three things you can try:
    1. First, make sure that the PC's on which you are trying to play your disks have a DVD player, and not just a CD player.
    2. Try burning at a slower speed (4x or lower). iDVD won't let you adjust the burn speed, so what you do is save your iDVD as a Disk Image (an option on the File menu. This will take a while because all the decoding will be done. Then you can burn your DVD disk from the disk image using the Utility/Disk Utility app on your Mac. Open Disk Utility and select your project whose name should appear in the left hand pane of the window. If it is not there, then drag your project into that pane and select it. Then insert a DVD-R disk and select Burn.
    3. Use DVD-R disks, not DVD+R.
    4. Use good quality DVD media like Maxell, Verbatim, or Fuji DVD-R disks. I happen to like hp (Hewlett Packard) disks myself, but in any event avoid discount or cheapo disks.
    As others have said, the DVD's that you make on your Mac should play anywhere.

  • Flash drives, DVD drives, DMG, ISOs, no longer work

    Starting in the past week, a number of our users (40+) are no longer able to use flash drives, dvd, drives, dmgs, ISOs, etc.  They do not mount at all.  The system claims that there are no mountable file systems.
    We have imaged a brand new computer and it reads everything just fine.  After we do a full software update, the aforementioned items no longer work.  This has been repeated and confirmed a couple times throughout the day.  This is on OS X Mountain Lion on MacBook Pro, iMac, and Mac Minis.  We have imaged and tested it on all 3 systems with the same result, running a certain part of software update seems to be breaking file system mounting.
    Has anyone else witnessed this today, any one in Apple care to chime in?

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.

  • DVD created in iDVD won't work in Mavericks

    My husband and I are creating a DVD in IDVD which we have done successfully on  my macbook . It plays fine on my computer and on dvd players.. But it won't play on my husbands computer which is on Mavericks.it just says supported disk not found. it will play in VLC but we really need it to play in DVD player on computes with Mavericks. Anyone having the same problem? have you found ways around it?

    Hi
    DVD doesn't play
    Most common origin to this are:
    Brand of DVD used - NoName, Memorex etc cheap brands might work as Data-DVDs - BUT NOT as Video-DVDs
    I only use Verbatim - More organic dye in them. (There are other to try too as Taiyo Yuden (may be wrongly spelled))
    Type of DVD used - I only use SL-DVD-R as they also playback on older DVD-players. DVD+R for newer DVD-players. Never ever DVD+/-RW. Dual-Layers usually creates more problems than Single-Layers
    BURN SPEED - Very IMPORTANT factor - I never go faster than x4 - Normally I use x2
    Material used - Video Codec, Photo and Audio file formats
    Video-Codec: StreamingDV, AIC and HDV (I use)
    Photo: .jpg - NO .bmp or other - all converted to .jpg first
    Audio: .aiff 16-bit 48kHz or 44.1kHz (as on Audio-CDs) - NO .mp3, wma etc ailient formats - all converted to ..aiff 16-bit 48kHz or 44.1kHz first
    Free Space: on Start-Up (Macintosh HD) Hard Disk - I never go less than 25Gb when doing Video-DVDs (for SD-Quality Video - if HD material is used 4-5 times more are a safe low level) (Other external Hard Disks - DO NOT COUNT as space here can not be addressed by Mac OS or iDVD for it’s massive use of .temp files)
    Dusty DVD-burner Laser: I use a Cleaning DVD (no liquid but the one with brushes) from time to time.
    Harmed DVD-burner Laser: Easy to do by burning more than three DVDs at a time - I let it rest for 30 minutes till next batch of three DVDs. If this happened - then only a costly repair will help. It will not heal by it self.
    OBS: There are more than one Laser in the DVD-Burner so other functions might work OK as Playback CD/DVDs and even burn CDs. Still being broken.

  • Losing Audio in DVDs burned from iDVD 6.0.2

    I'm trying to convert several Hi8 videotapes to DVD, and have successfully imported & edited footage in iMovie: audio tracks appear & play fine. When moved into iDVD, the audio works find in preview also. However, when I burn the DVD, I get either complete loss of audio or partial loss of audio (oddly, the first 2 clips retain audio, rest of audio is lost). I've tried burning as Disk Image, tried playback on several DVD players, all to no avail.
    Any suggestions would be much appreciated!
    Apple please note: As a loyal Mac user since 1986, I have found iDVD to be the most frustrating and user-unfriendly piece of Apple software I have yet encountered. Various iDVD glitches have resulted in my wasting at least 20 DVD blanks so far, and the process is far from transparent.

    Slewis,
    Welcome to the iDVD forum.
    Various iDVD glitches have resulted in my wasting at least 20 DVD blanks so far, and the process is far from transparent.
    Stop burning DVDs until you get this worked out. Try Using "Save as Disk Image" instead. I know you said you've tried this, but keep trying until the images play fine on your mac before burning.

    I know you have 6.0.2, but follow these steps anyway.
    You should also check the audio to make sure it is 16 bit.

    You might also want to go back to iMovie and use the "extract audio" command. This often helps.
