BBC News Video not displaying/loading

This is an old topic, but I can find no entry since 2006 have I missed something?
I can view YouTube, ITN any number of Quicktime sites, and I can listen to BBC sound only sites but not stream video content.
Running Safari (through Rosetta) doesn't seem to change anything.
Standalone Real Player looks healthy with a request sent to the BBC but nothing happens until it times out.
This Intel iMac has everything up to date, plug ins are in the root directory library and "block pop up" disabled. I have set Real Player prefs for my internet connection speed within Real's menu.
My connection is via Airport, might this be the problem?
I've read endless twaddle from the BBC which I think suggests OS9 and Real Player 8 or some such, while admitting that their original decision to use Windows Media no longer works. Have I gone into some sort of time warp?
I'm not sure what else to try, or is this a BBC/Mac incompatability?

Hi,
The file type I get is .ram, on Realplayer never used Flip4mac or WMP.
I've selected all the tabs for media type in Real except Quicktime to no great effect.
Did you allow the prefrences to Quit the browser if not it wouldn't help.

Live bookmarks for BBC News will not update/load

Live bookmarks on my tool bar for BBC News will not update/load

We accidentally broke this, but it should be fixed shortly. You should not need to take any action... it will recover on its own within a day or so.
If you want to fix it yourself, you can edit the feed location to one that works. Right-click "Latest Headlines" and hit Properties. The Feed Location should be of the form:
http://fxfeeds.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/headlines.xml
(replace your locale... en-GB, es-ES, and so on)
There is a bugzilla bug on this as well, with a technical discussion of what happened: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=692035.

BBC news video outsize display

About two weeks ago when starting a video on the BBC news web site, the image was larger that the window resulting in only part of the picture showing. However after scrolling down to disappear the window and scrolling up again, the image has resized and shows correctly. This is on Safari only, everything works fine on Chrome. Macbook pro 15" with retina display, OSX 10.8.2.

Then start using Chrome as your main and IMHO Only Web Browser.

Bbc news video

hi i am new ive had my imac duo about 2 weeks in general im finding it great but when on internet annoying me a little first up i cant play bbc news video weather etc says i dont have mime plugin ?????? , also i cant get mail to receive google mail , it can send but wont receive also some sites with security like when paying a bill wont load up ?????? then next time will, and last of all i can no longer get my hotmail to work with msn messenger can someone advise me please thankyou

Hi acemelhaz,
hi i am new ive had my imac duo about 2 weeks in general im finding it great but when on internet annoying me a little first up i cant play bbc news video weather etc says i dont have mime plugin?
I believe BBC Weather uses the Real Player plugin for its video content. What you need to do is install it, but because it's written for the PowerPC, you'll also need to run Safari under Rosetta for compatibility.
also i cant get mail to receive google mail , it can send but wont receive..
Did you follow Gmail's instructions to the letter?
also some sites with security like when paying a bill wont load up?
How should I put this? Some sites are written with Windows/IE-compatibility in mind, which doesn't necessarily amount to Safari-compatibility. For the time being, as a Mac-user, you'll have to come to terms with the fact that there will be a handful of sites which won't work with Safari. That said, where Safari fails, other browsers such as FireFox, OmniWeb or Camino might in some cases. The trick is to use what works for a given scenario.
Some sites specifically check for your browser's user-agent, refusing access unless it detects what it's looking for. If that is what's happening in this case, then you could try spoofing your browser's ID. Enable the Debug menu by quitting Safari and entering the following line in the Terminal (in /Applications/Utilities/)
defaults write com.apple.Safari EnableDebugMenu 1
When you open Safari, you should see a 'Debug' menu to the right of 'Help'. Near the bottom of that menu, you should be presented with a 'User Agent' dropdown menu, allowing you to change the browser ID reported. Changing that to 'Windows MSIE 6.0' would be your best bet in most cases.
then next time will, and last of all i can no longer get my hotmail to work with msn messenger can someone advise me please thankyou

Ipad retina does not play bbc iplayer or bbc news videos

I have a new ipad retina and just today it no longer plays hte videos on the BBC news site nor will it load BBC iplayer. Any help would be great. Thanks

Can only offer generic things to try like quitting all apps (double tap on Home, swipe all apps upwards quit), then force-restarting the device (hold down Home and Sleep will screen goes dark and a white Apple logo appears, release and wait). Or check your connectivity to see if something changed (Wi-Fi, cellular).
The BBC doesn't consider us foreigners worthy of the digital pleasures, so no iPlayer for us. But the regular app seems to be working ok:

IPod video not displaying new videos

For some reason now when put new videos (mostly downloaded podcasts through itunes) they dont show up in the Podcasts folder where they used to. Its only just started doing this. The only place I can view them is in the "Recently Added" folder. Also TV shows dont come up in my menu. Ive tried restoring it etc and nothing is working. can anyone help??

yeah mine seems to be more restrictive too. more so though of videos i had converted. i had a bunch of tv shows i ripped that played fine then after i updated the ipod to the newest software it said they weren't compatible....wierd...
In response to your syncing problem, mine does the sync and it says it updated ok, but wen i go into the podcast menu they arent showing up. If i plug it into my windows machine and go into the directory of where its stored the file is there and works, the ipod just doesn't see it or file it in the podcasts. The only way to play it is go into the recently added folder. I then have to make a separate playlist for those podcasts so when i add new stuff it doesn't get pushed out of the list and is unplayable. videos classed as "TV Shows" arent even viewable on it at all... Its stupid things like this that push me closer and closer to buying a Zune....

Videos not displayed in Videos app

Back when I updated to iOS 6 some videos disappeared from the Videos app. Now I realize that the videos show in the movies section under "On this iPad" in iTunes when I connect, which I don't do very often. I can actually play the videos in iTunes but I can't delete them. Since I can't find them on the iPad I can't delete them there either. The videos together take up about 1.3 GB and I'd like to recover that space. I tried creating some new videos with the same name to see if they would show up but that didn't work. Any idea how to remove these hidden videos?

I decided to take the plunge and restore the iPad mini as new. Pain in the rear end having to log in to all of the apps that I reinstalled. Oh well. FaceTime now works. On the whole the iPad runs more smoothly. Running iOS 8.1.2. I still have issue with artwork not displaying on some of the video files that I had synced to the iPad mini from my iMac through iTunes. The problem is only with artwork that I had associated to the files. The same file won't show it's artwork on my iPhone 4s running iOS 8.1.2 either. Yet, when I sync that same video file to my iPod Touch 4G running iOS 6.1.6, the artwork displays correctly as I had associated it in iTunes. This leads me to conclude that the problem lies in the iOS 8 upgrade.

I want to transfer BBC News videos to my ipod

If you click on the BBC you can watch news item videos in Real Player or Windows Media. They can be saved in .m3u, .rmp, .pls, .wpl or .asx file formats. Can anyone advise the simplest way to transfer and view any of these on the ipod? Is QuickTime Pro suitable?
Windows XP Pro

Hi,
These files are playlists (I think) so you can't convert them, because basically when you click them, they are a link to the file on the BBC, not the actual news videos, unfortunately.

Watching BBC News videos on an Ipad 3

Hi just wondering if anyone can help me out...
I'm not able to watch videos on the BBC News website using the iPad 3. I realise that they are flash videos and the iPad cannot play or download flash...but is there definitely no way around this? The BBC News app is a partial solution as it lets me play videos using the same iPad but there are so many videos in the archives of the main site that I'd love to be able to access.
If anybody has any tips then I'd be really grateful. I guess it's the same situation for all sites that contain flash content...
Thanks guys

That's great. iSwifter and Puffin both work though the latter seems to have better sound. They are both free too - looks like you have to buy Skyfire and Photon.
Thank you

Videos not displaying in list

When I add a video to my media card, it is not displayed in the media section under videos. The only way to access it it to got to Media, hit menu and then Explore.
I can see all videos that I recorded with the 8900, but others do not show up. I even see it scanning after I add something. I wait till its done and still nothing.
This doesn't happen for music or pictures. Any ideas?

Hello jforce
I had the same problem and I solved it by following advice which I found on another forum (see below). Very simple.
1) Connect your BB to your PC and navigate to the directory on the Media Card which contains the videos. Probably it's /Blackberry/Videos.
2) Delete the BBthumbs.dat file
3) Disconnect your BB.
4) Open up the BB Media Player and move to Video.
5) Wait a few moments The BB will then recreate the BBthumbs file and you should be able to see all videos on the Media card and elsewhere.

Video not displaying horizontally

Gentlefolk,
iPhone 5s, IOS 8.3, although the video in question was shot in IOS 8.2.
I started capturing a video with the iPhone vertically, then turned the phone horizontally, which is the format I wanted to begin with. The video appeared to capture fine,but when I view the video on my phone, or upload to YouTube, the video does not display horizontally, but vertically. That is, a horizontal video has the action of people walking up and down the screen rather than left and right across the screen.
So, take a horizontal image,and rotate it 90 degrees, and you have my issue.
How do I correct this? All I need is the graphics equivalent of "rotate 90 degrees clockwise" and my problem is solved.
It APPEARS that the video, once it started capturing in a vertical format (I hamhanded the controls to start with) did not recognize the change to a horizontal position. This is quite goofed.
Many thanks for any suggestions.

Found a free utility in the APP Store that (RotateNFlip) that....well...rotates videos. Worked perfectly for my issue.

Images not displaying/loading

I have inserted images into the code, I have double checked that the code is indeed correct, and the files are in proper locations, but the images I input still will not display. I think it might be an issue with my root folders, but I have no idea how to correct that. I'm fairly new in Dreamweaver, but know the basics. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Yikes, you're also missing your starting <body> tag. Your <style> should also be between the <head></head> tags.
Take a few minutes to run the tutorials below to make sure you're familiar with the basics of html and css...
