How do i get my video Podcast to "preview."   What are my options?? !!!

The episodes of my podcast cannot be previewed -
Unless you subscribe to and download them.
I want to know how to solve this problem
My Podcasts are 320 x 240 h264 MP4's
about 27 minutes long
65 MB Files
on a godaddy hosting account
what would solve this? - options:
• different service provider
• dedicated server
• dedicated server with "Streeming Server" installed
• Use professional web streeming service
• use different mime type (like .m4v instead of .mp4)
• use a QuickTime Media Link instead of direct link
• Feeds not done right
• Videos not encoded Properly
• What ever etc.
im avoiding the Professional Services ($1000 for a Thousand GB+$$$)
but what will make this work better?
Please Help

Actually, my guess is that you just haven't enables "Fast Start" under the streaming setting when you encoded your movie with QT Pro (or Apple's Compressor if you're using FCP.)
Try this: Open your original (before compression) movie in QT. Choose Export>Movie to QuickTime Movie>Options
Then below the sound settings is a checkbox that says "Prepare for Internet Streaming". Check it and choose "Fast Start" from the drop-down.
This will allow your movie to begin playing as it downloads. I'll bet currently it is not enabled and iTunes is waiting until the ENTIRE movie is downloaded before it begins playback. This will make it feel like it's not going to play. Does iTunes give you a dialog window that says, "Loading..."?
I just checked with the help file and it says you can enable Fast Start on movies that are already in their compressed format by simply opening the movie in QT, and then choosing "Save As">"Save as a self-contained movie". Apparently when you do this it automatically flags the movie for streaming and saves you the trouble of re-compressing all of your posted episodes. Try it on one of the old episodes and then reload it to your server and test in iTunes!
Good luck!

    Unfortunately you do not have any options, the iPad one cannot be used for mirroring.

  • Video Offline - How do I get my video back?

    This is the second time this has happened to me with adobe premiere elements. I went to open a video I have been editing and it says 'media offline'. And then when I try to search for it is says the video can't be found.
    How can I get my video back?

    Leeat
    What version of Premiere Elements are you working with and on what computer operating system is it running?
    Have you been moving, deleting, or renaming files and folders that were imported into the project after you saved closed the project?
    When you import media into a project, all you get are copies of the originals in the project. But the copies need to trace back to the
    originals where they were located when they were first imported into the project. Does any of that apply to you?
    If not, do you store any of your source media on an external hard drive? if so, the external hard drive may be malfunctioning and/or the
    drive letter may be changing for a variety of reasons.
    To get your project source media reconnected, best use the "Where is the file....?" messages one by one, targeting the exact file name
    that the message is looking for. The message does not know where the files are. You have to direct the message to the place where
    you know the file are (exact name of file) and then click select in the message. After you have processed a few of these messages, the rest of the missing media  may kick into place automatically...depends. Have you been there and done that?
    Can you actually see the files that you are looking for on the hard drive or have they disappeared from their original hard drive save
    location?
    Please review and consider and then we will decide what next.
    Thanks.

  • How do I get home video clips from iMovie Mac to iMovie iPad?  Surely there is some degree of cross-compatibility?  I have a load of clips in iMovie on my MBP that I wanna download to my iPad2 so that I can edit movies on the move.  Any ideas?

    How do I get home video clips from iMovie Mac to iMovie iPad?  Surely there is some degree of cross-compatibility?  I have a load of clips in iMovie on my MBP that I wanna download to my iPad2 so that I can edit movies on the move.  Any ideas?  (The clips are in a .mov format, they have been imported / converted into this format in iMovie, original files were from a JVC camcorder in some other strange format.)

    I copied the iTunes file from the external drive and it's in both places.  I thought all I would need is the iTunes program (which I downloaded to new computer) and my iTunes library file.  There must be something else that's missing.  My iTunes library looks the same on the new computer as it does when I open it on the external drive.  If I click on an iTunes library song from my new computer, it will only play if I have the external drive plugged in.
    My back-up drive is a mess.  I have multiple copies of music, video, photo, and document files and I don't know how that happened. ={  Obviously, I don't know how to back up stuff properly and there are back-up files extending over a 6- to 8-year period.  I think all I did was just drag and drop the main folders from the back-up drive to the same main folders on the C: drive.  Also (and I'm kind of fuzzy on this) Windows used to automatically save music files in a folder within my document files (which makes no sense to me).  As my Jewish friends would say, "Oy Vey!"

    How do I get my videos to upload from my sony handy cam when I get the message The following file could not be imported.  The file is in an unrecognized format. I am using a macbook pro version 10.9.3, I have 411 gb free space, it worked before I downloaded the latest update for iphoto.

    You may be able to download and install the update from here: Digital Camera RAW Compatibility 6.01
    If I upgrade to Yosemite will I be forced to go to the new Photos program
    No. After upgrading (and of course make a back up first) you will need to update iPhoto to v9.6.1 (you won't be able to do this prior to upgrading). Here's how:
    Go to the App Store and check out the Purchases List. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1
    If it is there, then drag your existing iPhoto app (not the library, just the app) to the trash
    Install the App from the App Store.
    Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.

    One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
    iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.
    Photos is v1 of a new app, as yes it's not as mature as iPhoto. It uses a different technology for working with external editors. That requires Adobe to write an extension to let it hook into the new app. Not done yet, neither has anyone else.
    Going forward: iPhoto will run on OS 10.10., but there is no guarantee for subsequent versions of the OS. You might want to factor that into your anger term thinking.

  • How can you get 2 videos to play simutenously together?

    How can you get 2 videos to play simutenously together so both are playing side by side on screen at the same time? 

    Welcome to the forum.
    As Steve observes, what you are talking about is called "PiP," or Picture in Picture.
    He has given you the basics of creating a "split-screen" PiP, and that should be exactly what you wish to do.
    For more detail, plus more ways to do PiP, I strongly recommend his book, Cool Tricks & Hot Tips for Adobe Premiere Elements 11, from Muvipix. He has an entire chapter (Chapter 10) on PiP, and many of its uses, with detailed instructions on the settings to accomplish it. Just that one chapter is worth the price of the book.
    Good luck, and happy editing,

  • Help! How can I get my video to show on my website?

    Hi
    I created an interactive book in InDesign CS5.5 and exported the .swf file to my desktop to include all the media (a video) and the interactive page turns. I generated an HTML page and according to this page, http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/827/cpsid_82754.html, there was supposed to be a 'Resources folder' with the video asset in there. However this folder was not created.
    When I open the html page in my browser, everything works perfectly.
    However, when I went to upoad the html and .swf files to my website, http://www.avantiandg.co.uk/ the last page with the video does not show.
    My questions are:
    1. How can I access the resources folder that is supposed to be created that I am supposed to upload to my website folder?
    2. How can I get the video to load up correctly?
    Thanks

    maybe a solution:
    Videos contained in interactive files must be converted to M4V format before being imported to Indesign, AVI, H264 or MPG won't appear once the file exported to SWF.
    In HTML the ressource folder is normally next to the root file of your site (index.html) no?

  • How do i get my videos to be full screen when editing and viewing on ipad 2

    How do i get my videos to be full screen when editing and viewing on ipad 2. When editing videos in imovie the video isnt zoomed in all the way, this is with imported videos as well as ipad videos... Please help!!

    Oh, unless you shot tall.
    If you shoot vertical/tall video it cannot be zoomed all the way out in the exit.
    Shoot wide, or edit in a different editing app.

  • I have downloaded video to iPhotos but how do you get the video to iMovies

    I have downloaded video to iPhotos but how do you get the video to iMovies

    In iMovie look in the Event Library. You should see an Event named "iPhoto Videos" (assuming the videos are compatible with iMovie).
    Each time you open iMovie it will look for any new videos in iPhoto and place thumbnails in the iPhoto Videos Event. You will be given a choice as to whether you want the thumbnails generated now or later. The thumbnails will appear in chronological (date) order in the Event window. Note that the clips themselves are not actually imported to iMovie - they are simply referenced by iMovie (that is, iMovie points to the clips in iPhoto).
    Drag clips (or parts of clips) to a project. To start a new project, select File > New Project from iMovie's menu.
    Please ask if you need more advice. Otherwise, click on Help > iMovie Help in the menu. There you will find plenty of good information about how to use iMovie, including short video tutorials.
