Thanks but I found my problem. It was easy oncew I found out the flask player was also called shockwave. My shockwave add-on was disabled. I'm not certain what caused the condition. I was good one day and not getting the error messages the next day. But, I know what to look for in the future if it reoccurs. Thanks again.

DVD player not playing DVDs

I can't seem to get my DVD player to play any of my movies. When I insert the dvd it doesn't show up on my desktop. The DVD Player doesn't start up until I start it(I have the option to 'open DVD Player) when I insert a DVD). I've tried several DVDs, all real dvd's, not burned or copied. I keep getting "Supported Disc Not Available". I haven't changed the region... I'm not even sure how to do that. I can still read and play music cd's. I've also tried using Front Row and I get "The DVd cannot be played... the format was not recognized".... well, They are the same DVDs I've watched befor so I'm wondering why... any thoughts befor I call up apple and get rejected since my warranty is shot.
Thanks....

You might try to reset the SMC (System Management Controller) and/or PRAM (Parameter Random Access Memory). Mac OS X: What's stored in PRAM?

My DVD player only plays in black and white

Just got a new Toshiba HDTV (model no. 39L1350U) and am trying to hook up the DVD player. Got sound, but it only shows a black and white picture. The only way I get any picture at all is by plugging the yellow of the standard AV cable into the green jack. I know this is not right, but don't know where to plug in the yellow connection since there is no yellow jack on the back of the TV. Am I going to need a different cable? My DVD player is an old Sony.
Thanks.

Solved!

My DVR670KU is about six year's old now. Been getting only a black/white picture. Was using and S-Video connecting cable to the TV. When I connected using an HDMI cable, now have the color again. Believe the S-Video cable failed/went bad. Was previously getting color from it though.

DVD Player Not Playing DVD's

When my brother puts a DVD into his Macbook Pro, it will read it, but after a few seconds it will freeze. He can't do anything. Even with brand new DVD's. The spinning rainbow icon comes up, and he has to restart his computer for the problem to go away.
Any ideas on what is causing this problems and what to do to fix it?

Hi. I have the same issue with a MBP. I cannot find the referred file in the specified path. I checked my MacBook air, and also could not find the file.

Control DVD Player to play specific chapters of inserted DVD?

(this question also posted in Automator discussion)
I would like to create an applescript that will instruct DVD player to play back certain chapters on a DVD. I want to send the script by email to a friend, so she can insert her copy of the DVD (The Yellow Submarine, actually), run my script, and view a "scripted" playback of chapters I've selected.
Even better would be the ability to determine edit points by time rather than chapter.
My applescript skills are weak--I can edit an existing script, but I don't have experience writing from scratch. Thanks very much for your suggestions.

Here is some starter code:
set desired_Chapter to 7
tell application "DVD Player"
activate
play dvd
set available_Chapters to available chapters
end tell
if (desired_Chapter ≤ available_Chapters) then tell application "System Events" to tell process "DVD Player" to click menu item desired_Chapter of menu "Chapter" of menu item "Chapter" of menu "Go" of menu bar item "Go" of menu bar 1

Burned dvd plays audio but not video

I just completed the first part of a wedding video and it burned fine. I just finished the second part and it looks and plays fine in imovie and idvd preview. However when I burn it and try to play it the dvd will only play the audio. the dvd starts like it's going to be fine, but the video stalls on the first frame and the audio continues. does anyone have any suggestions. I am trying to avoid starting over, but I don't know what else to do. I tried eliminating the first clip in case it was corrupt, but that didn't help.

First thing you might do is in iDVD, use the menu option to "Delete encoded assetts" in case the previous garbage from the last project or burn is messing things up. If that doesn't work here are my standard list of things I do when I have issue or even just before I go to burn a new project...
Run Cache Out X (free download) to clear all system and application caches.
Run MacJanitor (free download) to do all the Unix Cron Maintenance scripts.
Run Disk Utility (Applications -> Utilities) and repair disk permissions on your start up drive (typically your internal drive). Also verify any other drives mounted on the system.
Run Preferential Treatment (free download) to check for corrupt/damaged application and system preference files.
Reboot your Mac.

On my Mac (vers 10.7.5) I use Disk Utilites to burn a DVD. The DVD won't play on the Mac but will play on my Windows PC and on a DVD player. A DVD created on my PC will play on the Mac. Any ideas why this is happening?

I used iDVD to create an IMG file
You created the video DVD, the IMG file, with iDVD and just burned it with Disk Utility. As Klaus1 pointed out Disk Utility can't create video DVDs.

I burned some files onto a DVD-R disc using my MacBook Air.
I did it by dropping the files onto the DVD icon in Finder and burned it right there.
If I put the dics into my DVD Player, it plays just fine. If I insert it into a computer, it opens the disc like a memory stick or something: I can open the files, but it won't play via Macs DVD Player. Can I do something so Macs will recognize the disc as a Dvd?

Dvd player air play

I am unable to get the Mountain Lion DVD player to play video over air play (screen is grey and white checker board). The audio is just fine. If I turn air play off - the dvd is visible on my MacBook Pro screen. I have a early 2011 MacBook Pro.

It's probably a DRM limitation dictated by the publisher of the DVD.

Ipod shuffle syncs all music but only plays-back MPEG audio

My iPod shuffle syncs all the music I specify but will not play-back AAC files!! It will only play-back MPEG audio files. Is anyone else having the same issue? Have restored it numerous times and tried fewer files / more files but no joy. The voiceover just says "please sync with iTunes"

Hi MattG-Eastbourne,
If you are having difficulties with your iPod shuffle not playing certain audio content you may want to troubleshoot using the steps in this article -

It's probable that the CD 'side' of the combo drive has failed. That you cannot boot from the recovery CD is pretty much proof of the failure.

I am afraid you cannot connect the external DVD player to the iPad. It won't work.

Flash player 11.6.602.180 plays audio but not video...

Very similar to problems reported by others. Just started recently... flash player on Win 7 and IE 10 plays audio but no video... just black box or blank.
Have reinstalled flash player several times... including following all clean install instructions several times. Installation completes and and tells me it's installed successfully.
Have carefully matched IE settings to allow activeX content and have enabled the flash player object and turned on active scripting for all zones, etc. Still no video.
Going to the flash verification page shows a blank box where the current installed version should be.
If I look in control panel under Flash Player it tells me the activeX version is 11.6.602.180 and that the plug in is "Not Installed"... could that be the problem?
What can I do to fix this? Thanks in advance for any help.

DVD Player not playing video DVDs

This is a new problem on my MacBook Pro. The DVD player has played videos in the recent past with no problem. Now, when I insert a DVD, the computer attempts to read the disk (at least it sounds that way) and then ejects it. I have repaired permissions and researched on the discussion forums, even downloaded VLC to no avail. The CD player is working fine and all non-video DVDs are being read.

are these legit dvd's from the store or burnt DVD's? also try running a lens cleaner thru the system
