Cannot play movie error message

I am trying to stream off the bbc iplayer via wi-fi onto my ipod touch.
It keeps coming up with the error message 'Cannot Play Movie'.
Any ideas please??

That means that the dock is not HDCP complient..
HDCP stands for High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection and was developed by Intel Corporation. It's nothing more than a security feature requiring compatibility between the sender and receiver, like HD cable set-top box and the TV. By compatibility, I mean HDCP technology built into both devices.
Think of HDCP as a security license key like you would input when installing a computer program. Only this security key is invisible to you and me but not your TV.

  • Problem on flash, cannot play movie error(Adobe Flash CS3 stop working)... help guys...

    Just a minute ago my .fla file can be played. But after several minute when I added movie clips and animations. It just crashed down I guess, Adobe Flash CS3 stop working. I'm using Microsoft Vista operating system. I have an antivirus subscription which is McAfee with automatic update. I think it's a virus or what? I dunno what to do. I got a long way already with my animation on my file. When I will start from the very beginning it would be a mess and it will consumed a lot of time.
    Four to five attempts of testing the movie:
    error msg: Adobe Flash CS3 stop working.
    After several minute, test the movie again:
    error msg: Flash CS3 memory overload, I dont know the exact error message.
    I inspect the microsoft dialog and views the problem, it says APPCRASH, Flash.exe and has several .dll and other components did not load.
    Need help,
    Godspeed us all,

    first, open flash without opening a fla.  if it opens ok, create a new fla and save it.  close flash and reopen the new empty fla and test it.
    if that all works ok, open your project fla.  save it with a different name.  close flash, reopen the renamed project fla and attempt to test it.  any problem?

  • Unable to play some movie from Netflix on my iPad. When I click on a movie an error message comes up which says "cannot play movie. Please try again". Can anyone assist me? I just upgraded to iOS 7.1. Netflix not able to find problem.

    Unable to play some movies from Netflix on my iPad. When I click on a movie an error message comes up "Cannot play movie. Please try again later." I contacted Netflix but have not been able the help so I am wondering if it's my iPad. I didn't have a problem before but I have recently upgraded to iOS 7.1. Also is a certain amount of storage needed to play a movie? About how much is that?

    Hello all,
    I have an iPad 2 16GB with iOS 7.0.3 and Netflix version 5.0.2. I cannot watch netflix on an External LCD monitor that I have through VGA out. I use bluetooth speakers, so the AirPlay is going to that for Audio. Before this update, this combo worked without an issue.
    So as of Friday Nov. 8/2013, I contacted Netflix support, and they said they fixed the problem on their end, and the fix is on the Apple side of things, and to contact Apple support.
    So, I contacted Apple support, and the first person I spoke to said I would have to agree to pay a $35 fee for 30 days of support to this problem since my unit is out of warranty. I said this isn't a hardware issue, it's a software issue, and I'm not willing to pay to fix a problem you created. So I got a Senior Level advisor on the line, and she was helpful, and she's looking into the issue for me and said she'll contact me sometime on Tuesday or Wednesday (Nov. 12 or 13) to let me know of the issue.
    Here's the thing: this is a combination of Netflix and iOS not working correctly with any of the Apple Authorized Dongles. This is truly a code error that some hot shot programmer had major oversight on, and their management didn't catch it either. There was no reason for Netflix to rush to get this Netflix update going until Apple sorted out the bugs in iOS 7.
    Anyway, if I hear anything from Donna (the advisor), I'll post it and let you guys know. In the mean time, good luck!

    In a different post, you asked:

    So r u telling me that I can only look at a movie from my iTunes account on the device that it was download from.  This doesn't set very well me.  U should b able to your purchase movies from your cloud.  Is apple working on this resolution?
    There is no resolution needed, as this is not a problem.
    I am saying not the device, but the Apple ID is what needs to be the same, unless the movie is rented.
    If the movie is rented, it can only reside on one device at a time.  But from your error message above, I don't think that is your situation.
    Your error message suggests a different Apple ID purchased the movie.  If you want to see it, you must use your computer's iTunes, go to Store > Authorize This Account in the iTunes menu on your computer, and have that purchaser sign in with their Apple ID and password, then sync your iPad to that computer.

  • The Print Carriage Cannot Move error message

    I  tried to align printer because my printing output as been off center. However, when I try to run the align printer function, the printer stops after a few seconds and a few strange noises, and displays the error: The Printer Carriage Cannot Move. There is normally a sheet of paper jammed in the back carriage, but after I clear it, and try again, the same thing happens. Strangely, I don't have the paper jam issue when I copy or print (i just have an alignment problem). Why do I continue to have paper jam issues when I try to run the align printer function, but not any other functions?For instance, when I ran the clean printer function, the paper and the test came through very smoothly.  What gives? please help. thanks!

    Hi , Welcome to the HP Forums! I see that you are getting the "Print Carriage Cannot Move error message," with your HP Officejet Pro 8600. I am happy to help!  It is possible you may have a permanent hardware malfunction with the printer. In order to determine this, please try the steps within the following guides: A 'Paper Jam' Error Displays on the HP Officejet Pro 8600 Printers.'Carriage Jam' Message Displays. Hope these guides will resolve your issue!  “Please click the Thumbs up icon below to thank me for responding.”

  • Error - "Cannot play movie: Movie could not be played"

    Hi all,
    I'm trying to stream an MP4 video on my iPhone 4 (OS 4.2.1), which I could do with no problems before. For some reason I am now getting the error "Cannot play movie: Movie could not be played". I have tested this URL on a PC web browser and it streams fine. I have tried over the 3G network and wiki... same result.
    Has anyone experienced this and / or has a resolution?
    Thanks,

  • Getting "Cannot Play Movie" for what appears to be a good video file

    When I load a video by url from an email or in Safari, I get the message "Cannot Play Movie". However, I've written a simple app which just instantiates the MPMoviePlayerController and calls play() and it works flawlessly for the same video loaded from the same url.
    I get the same issue regardless of where the video is hosted, i.e. if I load the same video from a different url on a different server.
    QuickTime reports:
    H.264, 480 x 270, Millions
    AAC, Stereo (L R), 44.100 kHz
    480 x 270 pixels
    The video url is http://sistertech.s3.amazonaws.com/35007382172981/1655042009/streams/35007382172981-1655042009-ecar-124950129340988000-16-9.mp4
    Also, this only became a problem after the 3.0 update.

    i would just like to point out that when i record a video on my new imac using ibooth it obviously saves it as a quicktime file.
    however when emailing this to my iphone it presents the file for download. when the file is downloaded it displays the following error - movie format not supported when it opens quicktime.
    does the iphone require an upgrade of quicktime software?
    seems pretty pointless that it doesnt work even thought it is another mac product??!!
    thanks

  • How can I open my file after 'cannot find -filename-' error message?

    OK, the bottom line is, InDesign crashes and I cannot recover my file. I get a 'Cannot find file' error message when I try to open the file.
    I am using CS6 on a MacBookAir, OS X Yosemite.
    I have tried finding the 'InDesignFileRecovery' folder, I cannot find it anywhere, it's not in my Library or Caches folder.
    However, I do work in dropbox, so I just headed over to dropbox to recover from their 'previous versions'. It starts to get weird. There are lots of previous versions (I save very regularly) but when I download a previous version (that I know was fine) it downloads with a indd.txt extension. So I remove the txt extension and keep the indd and everything looks fine, but then that recovered file gives the same message. I tried renaming the recovered file and opening that, same 'cannot find file' error message.
    I can open InDesign and open the file from the day before, but none of the dropbox earlier versions of that day's work. I am SO sick of this happening. It happened to me last week to, so far I have lost 20 hours work :-(
    I have tried quitting InDesign and restarting the Mac, doesn't help. The only thing I can think of is to 'save as' every couple of hours, at least then hopefully I only lose 2 hours work.

    Thanks, when you say 'hidden by default' then how does one find it? I have already tried the path you mention and there is no sign of a cache folder with Adobe files. Spotlight doesn't reveal anything either.

  • Upgraded to itunes 8.0 - Purchased Songs now wont play - no error message.

    Upgraded to itunes 8.0 - Purchased Songs now wont play - no error message.

    You are in that awful authorization loop.
    Here are some steps to try.
    1. Deauthorize, then reauthorize your PC - it might be using multiple authorizations and this article shows you how to fix that.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1206
    And make sure you authorize for all iTS accounts, even that old one from 3 years ago you may have forgotten about.
    2. Delete the SC Info folder. The entire folder, not just the file. It will get rebuilt the next time you start iTunes. Don't forget to restart your PC, as the article says.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1389
    3. Get a free single of the week, which has the latest DRM on it, and play a few seconds of it. Sometimes the latest song of the week fixes everything.
    And if that doesn't work, contact iTS support from this page - use the Contact Us button.
    They will tell you to do the same things; reply back to their canned response.

  • How do I resolve the "Mozilla cannot find runtime" error message when I try to start Firefox?

    Mozilla Firefox updated to version 36.0. When I click on the Firefox icon to open it I receive the message: "Mozilla cannot find runtime" I receive the same message if I try to open Firefox by selecting "firefox.exe" from within the Program Files. I subsequently uninstall Mozilla Firefox and reinstall it. It will open and run normally right after the re-installation. Then if I close the program and try to re-open it again, I get the same "Mozilla cannot find runtime" error message.
    The only way I can get Firefox to open is if I uninstall and re-install it every time I want to open it after the initial re-installation.

    ''sage68 [[#answer-700841|said]]''
    <blockquote>
    Hi Adriel,
    The "Mozilla cannot find runtime" problem has returned. It occurs in two situations:
    1. When Firefox tries to download updates using "updater.exe" (version 36.0.0.5531), which causes my "Norton Internet Security" program to notify me with the message: "Auto-Protect has removed security risk Suspicious.Cloud.9.B" This message is shown every time "updater.exe" activates.
    </blockquote>
    I also have experienced this during several upgrades, not just the latest. (I am using Windows XP and Norton Security Suite.) Norton identifies c:\program files\mozilla firefox\updated\xul.dll with the Suspicious.Cloud.9.B virus and removes the file. I can set the Norton installation to accept xul.dll but it would make more sense for a Mozilla expert to contact Norton and work out a permanent solution, for all who are facing this problem.

  • I cannot play .mov files (from iPhone) in Premiere Elements 10.

    I cannot play .mov files (from iPhone) in Premiere Elements 10. Is there a solution?
    It used to work fine. I wonder if the problem has something to do with the recent iPhone update. Is there any Premiere update I can download?

    Well, if it used to work... and then you updated your iphone and now it does not work... that seems to ME like the iphone update changed something in the files

    Is the "software update" for iTunes 12?  Or something you did to the iPod?
