Internet Video Issue (Flash player???)

Hi everyone,
Just a quick one, not sure if it belongs in this category but not sure where else it would fit into.
I'm having problems playing video content on (specifically Channel 4 and Five.tv catch up player for those in the UK), as far as I'm aware they use flash based players. BBC iplayer, youtube, itv etc etc are fine but Channel 4's wont work...
Updated flash again to no success.
Any suggestions?

HI,
Try updating your system software. Your profile indicates you are running 10.5.2.
Go here. Download and install the 10.5.8 Mac OS X 10.5.8 Combo Update
*"Updated flash again to no success. "*
Did you uninstall the old plugin first? If not...
If that does not help try uninstalling then reinstalling a fresh copy of the Flash Player plugin.
Uninstall Flash
Install Flash
After any software installation, repair disk permissions.
Quit any open applications/programs. Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.

Youtube video requiring Flash Player

Some of Youtube video requires Flash Player. I installed it successfully, but I still encounter the same error message. It appears that I have not installed ActiveX control. How do I install it. BTW, is the ActiveX control the issue here or somethingelse is going on?

Video Pixelation occurs while recording the video using flash player

Hello,
I am recording the video using flash player 9 ( using the
flash media server 2.0 on the back end). Everything used to work
fine in the past. The quality of the flv video was good. Now
suddently, I have started seeing the pixelation in the recorded
video (very poor video quality). Nothing has been changed in the
code. However on the server side, I am not very sure if there is
any windows update has taken place and have caused the problem with
the codec on server.
However my understanding is that when we record the video
then flash player use its own codec not the flash media server.
Can any one help me on how I can get rid of pixelation
issues?
Thanks for your help.
Best Regards
Pradeep

Hello Melissa,
I might not be understanding the question right, but if you
are using Flash
Player 6, and the Flash Player 6 video player component, you
can resize the
video by resizing the component on the stage (just drag and
make it larger).
Let me know if that works for you.

Video in Flash player does not play in C6

I have purchased Nokia C6-00, but in this phone videos do not play in Flash player. It gives me warning message that flash player required to play this video. On flash player site, it is mentioned that android 2.2 is required to install Flash player on your mobile.
How is it possible to play video in flash player on Nokia C6-00?

Symbian anna (new software version) update is available for C6-01 and C7 but there is no software update for C6-00 (with QWERTY keypad).
I am eagrly waiting for software update for C6-00. At least to provide support of FLASH LITE 4.0 so that flash video can be played on C6-00 handset.
I am facing one more problem with Skype utility on C6-00. I have installed latest Skype version on my mobile but even with 3.5G network speed, Skype login does not work.
When ever I sign-in on Skype, it will become idle in between signing process and nothing is happened and after frustration I have to close Skype application.

Amazon Prime Instant Videos crash Flash Player in IE10

Have tried all the trouble-shooting steps in Flash Player Help (reinstalling, removing Caches, fixing Security settings, Storage Settings, etc.) until my eyes are crossed. This surfaced recently (probably with the latest Flash Player Version (11.6.602.180) I have Win7 32 bit, and this occurs with FireFox, IE9 and IE10.
An example of a video which crashes the player after a short time is :"http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003MHAR74"

Serving tutorial videos in flash player

so encore has the 'export to flash" feature. it seems like it might be a good way to go for me becasue it prodcces a flash player with all my chapter markers in place.
i have a couple questions though
1. it is limited to 1280X720 - i would have to do custom flash development to overcome that?
2. how is the resulting videos that are called by the flashdvd.swf served? i mean if i have 1-2GB of video clips are they served one at a time when called by the player?
3. is there any way to get the flashdvd.swf to fallback on iOS and maintain all the funtionality ?

I have a few questions/observations:
1. it is limited to 1280X720 - i would have to do custom flash development to overcome that?
Way would you want to "overcome" those dimensions? are you aware of how video bitrate must increase exponentially to maintain same quality as smaller display size?
2. how is the resulting videos that are called by the flashdvd.swf served? i mean if i have 1-2GB of video clips are they served one at a time when called by the player?
Typical Web videos are progressively downloaded from a regular Web server. Of course you will need a Web hosting account. You might also want to look into pseudostreaming if you would like the viewer to be able to "seek" to any chapter without waiting for the entire video file to download.
http://flowplayer.org/plugins/streaming/pseudostreaming.html
1 to GB of tutorials... certainly can be done, but I'd recommend that you understand how video bitrate relates to viewer experience as well as the viewers Internet download speed. This bitrate will determine how large each video file will be.
3. is there any way to get the flashdvd.swf to fallback on iOS and maintain all the funtionality ?
Yes, you can use swfobject for Flash detection and then provide an alternate video format:
http://code.google.com/p/swfobject/
Or, you might just want to use the mp4 video format and skip the Flash altogether. There are a number good players available, that will play the mp4... no Flash needed, like:
http://www.longtailvideo.com/players
For your review:
Video bit rate
Video bitrate is the minimum amount of data that must continually flow into the video player in order for the player to display that particular video uninterrupted. If that supply of data is not high enough, the video player will stop…. Wait for more data to download, then resume. The video bitrate is set as a parameter when the video is encoded.
One of the principle of goal setting is to "Begin with the end in mind". In this case it'll be very hard to give good recommendations because the end is not defined. So I'll just make a few assumptions and you can correct me as needed.
First, I'll assume that since you are converting to Flash, you want to deliver this video over the Internet. If that's true, then we'll have to make some assumptions on the Internet connection download speeds of your potential viewers. Let's just say that most have at least a 1.5Mb connection or faster.
OK, that would mean that a video bitrate of half that should usually provide a video download that is not interupped by buffering (most of the time anyway). So assuming a video bitrate of 750kbps, what would the optimum display dimensions be?
Before we decide, here's a little info about bitrate. For highest quality playback, the video bitrate is tied directly to the display dimensions. That is, the larger the display, the more incoming data is required to properly display the video. Think of bitrate in terms of a can of paint. If you have 1 quart of paint, you might be able to do a very nice job on a 32 X 24 foot area. But if you try to stretch that same amount of paint out over a 64 X 48 foot area, the coverage will not be nearly as good and you get poor results.
In the same way, a video displayed at 640 X 480 pixels will require 4 times the bitrate as a video displayed at 320 X 240 pixels to produce the same quality. So for example a video with a bitrate of 100kbps, displayed at 160 X 120 will produce the same quality results as a video with a bitrate of 1600kbps if displayed at 640 X 480.
So to boil it all down, video bitrates of 750kbps, even up to 1000kbps can usually get delivered of the Internet on most high speed connections. Higher bit rates may work for really fast connections but will cause problems for viewers with slower connections. Video display size has a direct bearing on the final quality. In the 750 to 1000kbps range, display size should be kept around 450 or 500 width max (and whatever height the aspect ratio calls for). Yes it can be displayed larger, but the quality will suffer.
Sound like your audio settings are fine, especially for Internet delivery.
As for framerate, maintain the original raw video framerate for best results. So if the video was shot at 24fps, leave it.
As for video converters, do you have the Flash 8 Video Converter? It works just fine for video to be delivered over the Internet. Remember, you are taking a Cadillac version of video (h.264 HD) and stuffing it into a Chevy body to get it to work over the Internet.

Final Cut Pro, Flash Video Encoder & Flash Player

Well, let's get started.... I'm getting real frustrated with
Adobe. I emailed them about this problem two months ago and NEVER
got a response. This is extremely unacceptable product support. We
just purchased the Creative Suite Premium two months ago and have
never gotten Flash Video Encoder to properly encode a Quicktime
video exported from Final Cut Pro.
I have heard from a few on the Final Cut Pro forum on
Creative COW that there is a bug with this issue between Flash and
Final Cut Pro. Adobe doesn't seem to care if I report it, so that's
why I am here.
I create my program as usual, export a Quicktime file (not
reference video, but a full self-contained Quicktime). BTW, I have
Quicktime 7.2 on my Mac Pro Quad 3.0 with 8 gig of RAM. I open
Flash Video Encoder to make my flash files. Import the Quicktime
and select my settings which are custom. I set it to encode and
wait for the encoding to be done. It takes about 1 1/2 hours to
encode a 23 minute program. After the encode is finished, I check
the Flash file by opening it up. BTW, I also have installed a copy
of On2 Flix Exporter, which encodes Flash files, too. The On2 Flash
player is the only player that works. Adobe's Flash player opens
but it won't open ANY Flash files.
Has anyone seen this?

When I try to import it on FCPX it says "None of the selected files or folders can be imported. Change the selection and try again." and even on Compressor it either doesn't play and fails to convert, or else it plays only a the audio but once I've completed the process the outputted file doesn't play anything.
Here's a screenshot at my different attempts to convert it. I managed to get the record the video on VLC, but I can't record the audio so I tried getting only the audio form Compressor as well, but like I said the outputted file doesn't play any audio even though it's as long as the video (36 mins approx.).

Issue flash player

Hello,why do i see blurry videos from internet if i have flash player and graphic card upgraded?i have win 8

the code you showed wouldn't do either of the things you expect or see unless you assigned a variable to your textfield which is not recommended. use your textfield's text property and make sure your textfield is single line:
tf1_txt.multiline=false;
tf1_txt.onSetFocus = function() : Void
if (tf1_txt.text == "Type Here") {
tf1_txt.text= "";
tf1_txt.onKillFocus = function() : Void
if (tf1_txt.text == "") {
tf1_txt.text = "Type Here";

How can you watch videos without flash player?

Is there any way to watch videos on ipad that say you need flash player. I know Apple does not support Flash Player. It's really annoying.

I use Puffin, most recently, it is actually much faster than Safari, as advertised. Videos play flawlessly, also supports games, etc. And it is Free, or atleast offers a free version.
Photon is extremely popular as well, but is not a free app, and I find that it is much slower than the Puffin app honestly.
However just search the App Store as others have said, and read the reviews, you will find a bunch of apps. Reviews are generally numerous and reliable.

How to watch videos without flash player

In my office they disabled flash player so i can't watch any videos

HTML5 on YouTube only works if the video is available in a supported format and fails for MP4 file of H.264 videos.

Maybe consider Google Chrome as that comes with its own video.
