DRM support for Home media sharing (e.g.Chromecast)

Hi,
Hopefully a simple question. I know Flash DRM has support for HDCP and analog counterpart for policy management in order to restrict streaming on external screen. However, what about home media sharing such as Chromecast. Can I implement policies that will allow/prevent streaming for Chromecase for instance?
Thanks,
Alain

Hi Alain,
Chromecast will ONLY stream video to displays where it can detect that HDCP is engaged. So in essence, it doesn't matter what Output Protection restriction is specified in the Adobe Access DRM Policy, the stream will only be played with Output Protection engaged.
That was the "allow streaming" use case.
Regarding the opposite use case, "don't allow streaming to chromecast", Adobe Access DRM currently does not have any mechanism to detect and disable streaming to a Chromecast device.
cheers,
/Eric.

I get the error message in QuickTime "operation stopped the operation is not supported for this media" most times when I try and export an .AVI file as something else (.m4v). I have not touched the file in any way (no trimming, clipping or other editing)

I get the error message in QuickTime "operation stopped the operation is not supported for this media" most times when I try and export an .AVI file as something else (e.g. .m4v). I have not touched the file in any way (no trimming, clipping or other editing), all I want QuickTime to do is export the file in a compressed format. Bizzarely, if I shutdown and open QuickTime many times I can occasionally export a clip as another format (maybe one in 10 times). I have seen that other users have had a similar problem after clipping files in QuickTime but this seems to be a slightly different bug in that all I do is open the file and then try and export the file as is - either way, this is a very annoying bug

@Z_B-B, thank you for taking the time to respond to my cry for help. However, the link you supplied does not address the problem: I am not trying to export from Final Cut Pro to QuickTime, I am trying to export from QuickTime to the rest of the world (like people's iPhones and Ipads) in .m4v format (so I am not emailing my freinds such huge files).
If I were to spend hundreds of Dollars on a copy of Final Pro I could export directly from there and not have to bother with QuickTime, but I do not take enough video clips to justify the cost. I must say that I never had any of these problems before I decided to switch from Snow Leopard to Mountai Lion.

Hello Alex,
I don't have an answer for you.
But, can you try to use http://drmtest2.adobe.com:8080/Content/anonymous.f4v with locally hosted OSMF player? This content doens't require user/pass info.
I'm wondering that Google TV's flash player doesn't support prompt dialog.
http://drmtest2.adobe.com/AccessPlayer/player.html requires flash player 11. That's why it won't be loaded with flash player 10.x.
Thanks,

Sony Support For Blank Media (CDR)

Hi everybody,
just want to share my experience with Sony...
Recently I bought 100 pack of blank CDR media in Costco. Have not had any problems with it before. And now I threw out third part of it because none of my three writers can record on it. Tried different speeds. No success. Obviously the media is defective. Spent two hours to find out that without receipt Sony will not replace the CDRs.
What a nice policy. They make the disks, stamp their logo on it, and do not honor their warranty without receipt. It is not an expensive equipment that you would keep a receipt for.
Huge corporation. Many years on the market. And the same problems as with cheap ones. Customer satisfaction, relation, etc. Bulls**t.
The support web site sucks. Online chat support link brings you to a web page that does not exist. Phone support staff does not even know that such thing as blank media exists. No e-mail support.
BUT they are gladly display success stories and pictures from their happy customers... Unfortunately I'm not anymore.

Hello,
Welcome to the forums.
Here is the link to our Recording media Support page
http://esupport.sony.com/US/perl/select ... ODTYPE=102
and instructions for warranty support of the media
http://www.docs.sony.com/release/Warran ... -Media.pdf
If you no longer have your receipt. there is good news, since you are a member of costco you have a costco membership file. bring your card to their returns desk or call them and have them look up your past purchases, they will issue you a new receipt.

DRM support for newer radeons?

My RadeonHD 4650 has been supported by Linux's DRM system for over a year..
It has been supported by FreeBSD for nearly as long, as well...
Yet, I am told that there isn't any support for direct rendering for my card under Solaris?
If that is true, then that is crap, pure and simple.

HP Media Server or MacMini for home media server

I am torn between the new HP media server with Windows Home server or a MacMini for my home server.
Can anyone provide insight on which would be better?
I am looking to store all my media, data on either one. I.E. Pictures, Music/Video - to stream to AppleTV etc.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I know you have already marked the question as solved, but if you are still torn between the HP or Mac Mini here is what I did.
Although the HP has more storage space, I went for the Mac Mini option because; the foot print is smaller if you want to put under a TV, it uses less electricity and I felt Mac OSX was a more stable platform to work with.
The Mac Mini use a 2.5" Sata drive, so you are limited in upgrading past 320GB. There is a 2.5" 500GB drive out however I don't know if it will fit as when I read about it six months ago the article said it is slightly thicker, but I could be wrong.
To get around the problem of storage space, I attached a 1TB SATA hard drive via Firewire, which cost about £120. Although there are cheaper 1TB hard drives around, I went for one with an Oxford Chipset as it is always going to be on and I didn't want it to fry out.
I connect to the Mac Mini remotely to manage it. It's dead easy to set up file sharing, and I ended up giving my brother and dad there own storage space that they can log into with a username and password. One uses XP and the other uses Leopard.
The other great thing is you can configure iTunes and system preferences to automatically rip a CD or DVD and add it to the library then eject automatically when it is done. This may be obvious but it is incredibly useful feature, as it saves having to rip it on your personal computer then transferring the files.
The streaming capability of the Intel Core Duo is really good, so far we have been able to get it to stream to the AppleTV, 2 MacBooks and 1 Sony Vaio, while converting an avi movie to MP4 through Visual Hub, it might be able to handle more iTunes streaming we just ran out of computers to test it with.
Hope this helps in any decision making.

Most Frustrating Can't Upgrade DRM License For Windows Media Player 12 On Windows 8.1

I am very upset. I have been trying ALL DAY to get the DRM license so I can play music that I BROUGHT and PAID for years ago. Why did the DRM license not come with WMP 12 before it got uploaded to PCs run Windows 8.1? Can you just send an update that is
the DRM for WMP12? At this time, I really don't know what to do because everything I have tried has not WORKED!!! Would you PLEASE fix the page where you can upgrade so you can actually UPGRADE? I NEED help. I really want to hear my music. I miss it.
Thank you for your time

Firewire or USB for Home Media Server

I have an iMac (2008) that I am going to use as an iTunes server for streaming to AppleTV. Since the iMac only has a 320GB drive, I am planning on buying a new external hard drive to which I will transfer all of my media, which I will always leave connected to the iMac (I will just point the iMac's library to the media on the drive).
My question is whether I should consider FireWire 800 or USB 2.0 as the external drive. I know most macs these days no longer come with FireWire, and in the case that I end up getting a new computer in the next year or two, I'd rather have a drive that utilizes USB 3.0 and have that faster option in the future.
That being said, if the stream quality to the AppleTV is going to be so poor that I hate it (using the USB 2.0), then I would consider a FireWire 800. Does anybody have any experience with this?
Also, it should be noted that all of my devices will be wired to the local home network (not wireless).
Thanks for the advice.

Personally, I don't think it matters. FireWire 800 is capable of almost 800 Mb per second and while USB 2 is theoretically capable of 480 Mb per second it only has an effective throughput of 280 Mb per second. If you have other uses for this drive, the difference between FireWire and USB may well be worth considering, however if you are just going to use it for movies to play to your Mac/Apple TV, you should remember that these movies will need no more than 10 Mb per second in order to play without issue.

Poor Support for Recovery Media Error.

T'm trying to recovery a Sattelite laptop L675D (part no. PSK3JU-03L02D) for a friend. There was no recovery partion on the machine and it was out of warrenty, so I purchased the recovery media ($29.95). I started the process and it read the 3 CDs and then started the process of creating the partitions, but 45% into the "creating CRC files" it failed with error code 10-FA12-045D.
A call to Toshiba support told me to remove battery and AC for 15 minutes and try again. Same result so another call to support. They did not tell me what the code indicated, but checked that I could enter the recovery process via the hard drive without the CDs. They said they could get the machine running without sending new disks. They charged $49,95 since the machine was out of warranty. I asked that if they were unsuccessful at resolving the issue, would the charge be refunded and the support person said "yes". We then attempted the recovery from the hard drive. (I thought this was useless since the media created the recovery partition and I would probably get the same error, but I went along...)
After 30 minutes, I got the exact same error (10-FA12-045D) that I had got on previous recovery attempts at the same point in the process. The new support person said that the message indicated missing drivers and they would need to send new media. He checked with his supervisor and said the $49,95 was non-refundable. NOT A VERY SATISFACTORY EXPERIENCE.
I am now waiting for the next recovery media to arive.

Hi
If possible, turn on power, press F10 to enter BIOS mode, and run Memory Test and Hard Drive Test if any test fails you need to replace the part. Please note you need to be sure which part has failed and replace that part only then the unit will work fine. As per my understanding error code 303 is Hard drive failure.
Let us know how it goes!

Have Care Pack Certificate but cannot reach support for home fix

G62x-400 Notebook. I purchased Care Pack Certificate for "In Home" repair. Since new, the PC has had a very noisy fan, sometimes actually screaming. When I called tech support, I waited forever. When finally connected, the agent put me on hold "to speak to a hardware person" but never returned to the phone. HP says it has "aware-winning service". I have not been impressed.
All I need is for someone to fulfill the terms of the Care Pack and come to my place and fix the computer. Why is that so difficult to make happen?

I just chatted with a HP representative, within 1 minute I have been answered and 20 minutes later I got a service order for a repair. I don't have the in-home repair though but you may try doing it, I found out they replies fast.

When will there be universal support for Sling Media Player, Google toolbar plugin, and Active X for Firefox Aurora 7.0a2 and up.

I can't install Google Toolbar or watch my Slingbox from http://watch.slingbox.com/watch/slingPlayer/install

Firefox doesn't support ActiveX; if you have the ancient ActiveX plugin for Firefox 1.5, you should remove it. [http://kb.mozillazine.org/ActiveX#Uninstalling_the_ActiveX_plugin_on_Windows How to uninstall].
The others are third party add-ons that will be updated... when those third parties update them. Considering that Firefox 6 hasn't been released yet, I wouldn't hold your breath.

Janus DRM Support - Wh

This statement is taken from Microsoft's 0/2/2004 press release on WMP 0 and PlaysForSure:
Other music devices with Auto Sync support include the following:
* Creative
unveiled the new Zen Micro, a stylish, ultra-portable 5GB digital music player that holds up to 2,500 songs and supports Windows Media Player 0's Auto Sync function. This device is available now for preorder at http://us.creative.com and http://www.amazon.com, and will ship by the end of October. Creative also announced it will offer firmware upgrades in November for the Zen Touch and the Zen Xtra hard dri've players for current customers, adding MTP and Auto Sync support for Windows Media Player 0. Once upgraded, all three products will be PlaysForSure-compatible.
Now, as I understand the PFS, it doesn't appear to guarantee that WMP0 Janus DRM will be supported. Can anyone confirm that Zen Xtra players will be able to use Napster To Go subscription music? I am trying to decide on a player for someone, and the Zen Xtra is at a great pricepoint, but I don't want to buy something that is not compatible with the Napster to Go service.
Thanks

I found the following announcement from earlier this year which gives me hope that I won't be soon regretting my recent purchase of a 60GB Zen Xtra player:
<i>Excerpted from ?Microsoft's PlaysForSure Logo Program Attracts New Industry Partners and Expands to Connected Televisions, New Portable Devices,? Microsoft Corp. press release, LAS VEGAS, Jan. 5, 2005</i>
Creative announced ? [a]dditional updates that include support for PlaysForSure online music subscription services using Windows Media DRM 0 will be forthcoming for the Zen Micro, Zen Touch and Zen Xtra players, and be available in the first quarter of 2005.

Does anyone know when DRM 0-compatible firmware and drivers for the Zen Xtra are scheduled for release?

QoS support for UltraSparc T1

Hi,
I am just curious about whether there is any hardware or OS (e.g., Solaris 10) QoS support for L2 cache sharing among threads for an UltraSparc T1 machine? Thanks.

Not explicitly. There are some things done by the OS, like stack slewing, that will, as a side effect, minimize hot bank problems in the level-2 cache.

Window 7 has native support for AVCHD after the update today

"21. Improved playback support for video content from digital camcorders and cameras
Customers loved the increased range of formats natively supported by the Windows 7 Beta, but noticed areas where they wanted broader support. For example, one was unable to seek to a specific spot in the video in Windows Media Player or Windows Media Center for AVCHD content that was imported from a digital camcorder. Weve addressed this. Also, while the support for video from some digital cameras worked great, we also got feedback about supporting a broader set of devices out of the box. Weve since added support for Windows Media Player to natively support the .MOV files used to capture video for many common digital cameras. "
http://blogs.msdn.com/e7/archive/2009/02/26/some-changes-since-beta.aspx

Windows media player 11 can play AVCHD very well on windows vista already. And the .MOV native support actually worries me. If that happens, would apple still be making quicktime for windows? will quicktime pro still be on windows? because as far as i know there was no more windows media player on the mac as soon as flip4mac(well, it was made by microsoft..) came out.
