How to stream images to multiple ATVs?

I would like to install 5 large screen monitors throughout an office for advertising purposes. I will display an image that changes about every 30 seconds. I could use iPhoto, Keynote, Quicktime, or whatever works best.
The question is, with a good dedicated server, can I stream to 5 ATVs simultaneously? If not, any better ideas how to achieve this? I could go with a wired network, but would prefer wireless. I am open to a solution other than ATV if needed.
thanks!

I've no idea if there is a certain processor that would be needed, I've been streaming to multiple Apple TV's since they came out and not had a problem on various computers. If you are going to encounter a problem it will likely be with your network rather than your computer, the computer does very little but send the data it's requested to.
5 Apple TV's might place too much of a load on a wifi network that isn't working as well as it should be, either because the distances are too great or it's experiencing interference. I tend to have a lot of data flying around my network, in addition to my 6 Apple TV's, we have several HD security cameras that use the network as well as a couple of iPads, 4 phones and numerous computers and other devices.
To accommodate all this traffic I use more than one wifi base station all using the same network and linked via ethernet. This is what I do, it's a little out of date now, we have 3 Apple TV 1's and 3 Apple TV 2's now instead of 5 Apple TV 1's and a couple fewer phones, but you'll get the idea.
The Apple TV outputs at 720p depending on the TV you have the TV will scale the output accordingly. It doesn't matter how high a resolution the photos are they can never be scaled to more than 1920 x1080 on a TV screen as that's the maximum resolution of a TV.
How often the slideshow repeats depends on how long each slide is displayed for and how many there are. If you have (say) 100 slides and they each last for 20 seconds, the slideshow will repeat after 33 minutes and 20 seconds.

Have you thought about using an Eye-Fi SD card? They have WiFi and can transfer photos from the camera to a computer while shooting. For the iPad, there's an app called ShutterSnitch that can receive the photos from the Eye-Fi card.

How to stream images stored in an external server in to a Flash Web Site?

I would like to be able to bring in external images in a banner like in a slideshow, but not sure how to do it. I have a bunch of small images that I would like it to go through, and my current banner has all the images in the swf and the swf file is huge. Is there a way to import external images from a folder on the server? Where can I go to learn how to do this? Thanks....
To get an idea of what I'm talking about, here's the banner on our site...

Your best bet for this would be to search Google using search terms like "AS3 slideshow tutorial" or "AS3 dynamic slideshow turoial". THis assumes you are designing an AS3 file. If not, substitiute AS2 for AS3 in the terms.
In AS3, one of the main classes used for loading external images is the Loader class. SO becoming familiar with that will be a necessary part of the learning. But that is not all since you want to have controls for displaying the images.
One thing I noticed with the banner you show, the images would not seem to need to be any "huge" burden as far as file goes. You should optimize all images before you import them into the file.
Still, having the images loading from an external supply will be better because then you can change the images as you wish without having to edit the Flash file. To realize this capability you should include "XML" with the rest of the search terms previously identified.

Can any one tell me how to stream the images in flash.

You show a preview and use loadMovie() to load a big file.
You can
create a preloader (progress bar) showing how much part is
loaded,
while user sees the small image. When you achieve 100% tou
show that
big image. What's more?

What are you talking about is not a "streaming", but
"progressive
download". Images "streaming" is impossible.

How do you print one large image onto multiple smaller sheets?

For example, I want to print one 17x22-inch image onto 2, 8.5x11-inch sheets.

I think you have your calculations wrong. It would take four sheets of paper to have the same size image because you have to double in both directions. I think printing an image on multiple pages is a function of the printer. If your printer has that capability then the options will be in the printer driver. Otherwise, I guess you could try to create virtual copies and crop each one individually and print them and hope they match up.
My printer does not have that capability, so I'm not familiar with how it would work. But it might be necessary to print outside of Lightroom in order to me that feature function properly. If it sounds like I don't know what I'm talking about, that's probably because I don't, really.

How do you Spread an Image across multiple pages and print?

I'm trying to create a large poster to be put on a bulletin board. I've mangaed to spread the image across multiple pages but I can't figure how to be able to print the pages have the edges line up successfully after cropping. I've been playing with the bleed settings but can't figure it out. Here a shot of what im working with:

How to image trace multiple objects at once on Illustrator CC?

Hello,
This may sound like a stupid question, but I am having troubles trying to image trace multiple objects all in one go.
I'm currently working on Illustrator CC and I remember this process being a lot easier to do on Illustrator CS5.
I have a typical job where I create client specific barcodes on a separate program, and then bringing them into Illustrator to vectorize.
When I used to do it in CS5, all I had to do was release clipping masks, select all 50 or so barcodes, then Image Trace - and voila, al of my barcodes were vectorized at once - easy.
I now have to vectorize about 120+ barcodes and Illustrator CC is only letting me select & image trace one barcode at a time. There has to be a better way, and I'm hoping someone here can help.
(I would open up CS5 and do it from there, but my work computer was recently replaced with a newer iMac and was only provided with Illustrator CC)
Thanks!

Not sure what your barcode-specific challenges and methods may be, but my general aversion to the image trace feature compels me to suggest that you just create the barcodes in vectors in the first place. I do that using Terry Burton's free online barcode generator.

Duplication issue related to photo stream, Moments, and how iPhoto handles images coming in from the stream.

Pre-iOS 8 deleting photos from the stream was easy & comprehensive while within the 1000 pic/30 day window. Deletions affected ALL DEVICES, including the iPhoto Library. It just worked. This was controlled from the Cameral Roll.
Now that the Camera Roll is back, the function described above wasn’t restored. Streamed images are copied to the Library and do not get removed as before when deletions happen from the Camera Roll or from the Streamed album.
In iOS Moments LOADS of duplicate pairs appear as a result. One of each pair has a trash can and the other doesn’t. The trash can one informs the user that the photo will be deleted from the stream and all devices, but it does not delete the image from the Library on the Mac.
Can we get the pre-iOS8 image management from Cameral Roll back without having to re-delete images from iPhoto Library on the Mac. Otherwise what’s the point of the photo stream?
Mac Pro w/10.9.5
iPhone 6 w/ iOS 8.1
iPhoto 9.5.1 w/ 8052 images
Using photo stream, but NOT iCloud betas

Anything you save to the camera roll automatically gets put into the photo stream. You do not need to import and export to the computer as ckuan said. I have saved from email and the web and when they get saved they go into the photo stream automatically.

Can you run multiple ATV's?

Are there any issues with running multiple ATV's at the same time- playing different content? Also, are you able to broadcast the same content (say from itunes on my Mac) to all ATV's at once (I can see this used at parties where I can have all the TV's on displaying the same video/photo reel). I am hoping there are some freaks like me out there who are planning/have already populated all their TV's with ATV's.
Also, will the digital audio out work without HDMI being plugged in (in case I want to use an ATV as an audio-only receiver to an amp?)

I have to ATVs setup and it is actually quite amazing how you can play different content on each of them from the same library... wicked. I cannot attest to streaming video since 4.2 is still in beta and iTunes from the desktop is not streaming video to ATV, but audio works great. Apple is really onto something here...

How to copy images from another MC in reversed order??

Hi everyone,
I'm new to AS3 and have been fighting and searching for a solution to this problem for a week now, and I'm VERY close!
I crated a MC holding of a series of images (about 50) and I jump around in it using plenty AS3 scripts (most of which I don't fully understand yet, but I'm working on that to! )
I had to find a way to "rewind" (= play backwards) the MC. Since there is a stop(); command in almost every frame, prevFrame does not work and if I put that in a loop, it goes WAY to fast (but worked).. So I could think of only one way...
Create a new (reverserd) MC with the same image sequence ald reverse it manually and play that one.
This all works fine (very proud of it ).
Now my question:
To get this to work for multiple image sequences, I have to load all images twice (once in MC_1 and again in MC_2 and select them and reverse them).
Not a big one, unless you want to create MANY of those SWF's...
Is it possible to load the 50 images of the first MC in reverse into the second MC dynamically? JUST the images, noting else.
extra info: the MC_2 is already in the lib(empty) and placed on the stage.
something like:
var pointer:Number=1;
for (var:i:Number=50;i>=0;i--) {
get MC_1.picure(var);
put it in MC_2.frame(pointer);
pointer = pointer + 1;
All help is welcome and please take into account that I have little experience and copy most of my scripting from people like you
T.I.A.
Melluw

I tried your advice (thanks for that)
The event I already have is the mouse leave
I //-d out the part I removed (what did work)
The code I ended up with is:
function Start() {
stage.addEventListener(Event.MOUSE_LEAVE, cursorHide);
function cursorHide(evt:Event):void {
var currFrame = MC_1.currentFrame;
if (CCW == true) { //it is true in this case
movStart = (50 - currFrame);
else {
movStart = currFrame;
if (movStart>25) {
MC_1.prevFrame();
// removed swapChildren(MC_1, MC_2); // This is the part I removed
// removed MC_2.gotoAndPlay(movStart);
else {
MC_1.gotoAndPlay (movStart);
And if I leave the stage on the part where movStart is indeed >25
Nothing happens,
So I guess this is not what you meant
Subject: Action Script 3 how to copy images from another MC in reversed order??
I cannot direct you in the loading of the images approach, it will be too complicated, and will probably not work anyways... when you move away from a frame that has dynamic content, you lose the content. So basically, there is nothing practical in taking that approach.
I do niot understand what the problem will be with the enterFrame/prevFrame approach. If everything you can do with the mouse is already used (which I doubt) by the first mc, then there is nothing else you can do with this file. You probably just need to rethink your control scheme. You should search Google for "AS3 slideshow tutorial", and to lighten up your design, add "XML" in that search.

Need to select and move images across multiple pages...

Hi,
I am using Indesign CS2 on a Windows machine and have a 25 page document with 4-up photos (4"X6") on individual pages. I used the ImageCatalog javascript to load these images so I don't seem to have any control from the Master page. I would like to group and move these images to a different location on their own pages.
Do you know how to select these images across multiple pages? Or can a simple script be written to process this task?
Thanks in advance for your help.
-Greg

Hi Greg,
A script can certainly do what you want to do--but you have to be a bit more specific. Do you want to move them to different pages in some predefined way, or do you just want to adjust them a bit on the pages they're already on?
Thanks,
Ole

How to Handle and show multiple pushpin imgaes on the map based on the requirement at different coordintes?

How to Handle and show multiple pushpin imgaes on the map based on the requirement at different coordintes?
I have multiple images in my App folder. I want to use and show those images dynamically in windows phone 8 map application

There are a lot of different ways to do this. One simple method is to use a switch statement when creating your pushpins and based on some property in your data, select the icon you want to use and create your pushpin accordingly.
