Embedded videos from various websites no longer load

embedded videos from various websites no longer load. i just get a black mini screen with no controls. they do load when using other browsers and this only started within the last few days

i just tried safe mode and that makes no difference. the videos that do not load are ones embedded in websites such as the huffingtonpost etc. the website loads as normal. when i click on an article with a video the article appears but the area where the video usually appears is just a black box. typically that box contains a "promo shot" and video operating controls. recently this area is just black. this happens on numerous news type websites. when i use safari as my browser everything works fine

  • Videos from some websites do not load.

    Videos from some websites no longer load on my Macbook Air even though they did load until recently.  The two sites where I have noticed the problem are Fine Woodworking and the Weather Channel.  YouTube, news channels, and other sites work normally.  The problem occurs with both Firefox and Safari, suggesting that it is not a browser problem.  I have turned off the Mac firewall, and I have disabled AdBlock, though both of those were turned on when the videos used to load and run.  Turning them off made no difference.  I also have checked that my software is up to date (browsers, Flash player, operating system), and it is.  I am not quite sure when the problem started, but it is quite recent.  I am unaware of any change I have made to the computer, except perhaps installing some automatic software updates.  Everything else seems to work normally.

    "The problem occurs with both Firefox and Safari, suggesting that it is not a browser problem".
    Anti virus software installed?
    Any apps such as Little Snitch, MacKeeper, or CleanMyMac?

  • How do I make a thumbnail that has a gallery inside? And how can I make this gallery have embeded videos from vimeo + Images?

    Hello,
    I'm pretty new to Muse so I don't know a lot about it, but I researched a lot and didn't find an answer to this question.
    I'm trying to make a portfolio website. The website will be a 12 thumbnails. But each thumbnail is one project, not an image.
    When you click one of the thumbnails, I want it to be a lightbox that will show embeded videos from vimeo mixed with images.
    Ex: A coca-cola projet.
    Main page has a thumbnail of a coca cola image. When you click on it, it opens a lightbox with a coca-cola film, when i click to the right arrow, it shows a cocacola poster, then another poster, then another video. (but they are all part of this gallery, that is inside the thumbnail.
    Can you guys help me?
    Thanks!!!

    I don't understand why my thumbnails don't work.
    I dragged a composition lightbox inside another one. But I still have the first lightbox there and can't delete.
    When I try my wabsite i see this:
    But then I click the thumbnail and I see this:
    And when I click one of those 3 I see this:
    Like it is making a double lightbox.
    but it doesn't show the images, it's like the first lightbox is on top of the second one.
    How I deal with this?  =/

  • I recently installed Java 6 update 33, and adobe flash player 11 plugin, and now can't play any videos from any website in Mozilla, but Google Chrome works.

    Cannot play any video from any website in Mozilla after installing Java 6 update 33, and adobe flash player 11 plugin. However, I can play videos from Google Chrome and also from Internet Explorer. For example, when I'm trying to play a you tube video in Mozilla, a black screen comes up with following error message: "An error has occurred. Please try again later."
    (This is like the Wizard of Oz -- when the man comes to the little window in the door and says to Dorothy, "Come back tomorrow." )

    This may be caused by a recent Flash 11.3 update.

  • How can I import a video from a website

    I'm trying to create a slideshow with pictures and music but I would also like to show a video from this website www.212movie.com I want to show this video at the beginning of my slideshow. Any help would be appreciated.

    what you call a video, is a .swf 'animation', shockwave flash. downloading that .swf creates only the 'loader' of the following 'video'.-
    I guess, the owner of that website has good reasons to probit any downloads ...
    for sure, using any screengrabber tools as Screenflow, Jing, SnapZ or QuicktimeX-built-in screenrecording feature etc. would 'allow' it.. but those captures usually are way-off any standard, a video should have, esp. resolution (=quality drops)
    ahh, and Welcome, melindanoland, to the  iMovie boards ..

  • Embedded videos from Viddler unable to play

    I have been having this problem for quite some time now and it finally bugged me enough to post about it. Anyway, on the Gawker Media sites (specifically Deadspin for this example) embedded videos from Viddler show a "Video not found" error message. However, if you get the link from the video and watch it directly it works fine. Also if you go to viddler.com and watch any video, they work fine. It appears as though something is messed up in how Firefox handles the embedding of the videos. Not sure if it is an HTML5 thing, a Gecko thing, or what but it works fine in G0ogle Chrome.
    Here is a link of an example of what I am talking about:
    http://deadspin.com/5833185/espn-is-airing-a-tv-commercial-for-grantland
    and if you get the link for the video and go to it directly it works fine:
    http://cdn.static.viddler.com/flash/as3/full-publisher.swf?ref=&key=8ed093e8
    The actual link was:
    http://www.viddler.com/embed/8ed093e8/
    but I had to change it to
    http://www.viddler.com/player/8ed093e8/
    based on advice from:
    http://www.viddler.com/forums/bugs/7491/
    I am running Firefox v7.b1 and I tried it both with and without my add-ons enabled. My Flash and all other plugins are up to date. I had the exact same problem with Firefox v6 as well. Please fix this issue. Thanks

    Based on rschmitty's reply, I attempted a clean install. This seems to fix everything. Not sure where, when, or how something got screwed up, but this is a fairly simple fix. It even continued to work after installing all my add-ons.
    After a little research I did find a couple things that can cause this to mess up. Viddler is very picky about their hotlinking and tries to control who links to their videos. Thus if you go to about:config and change the network.http.sendRefererHeader (http://kb.mozillazine.org/Network.http.sendRefererHeader) to anything other than the default of '2' that messes up any video links from Viddler, not just the links on Gawker Media websites. This change is often required by websites like http://crazedlist.org/ or any other mass craigslist searching sites. Just remember that if you change the network.http.sendRefererHeader option, you must change it back for videos to work.
    Another thing that can screw with the Viddler video linking are add-ons which basically do the same thing as modifying the network.http.sendRefererHeader option. One such add-on is [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/refcontrol/ RefControl], which if you change from anything but the default will cause the 'Video Not Found' error. If you use add-ons like RefControl be sure to add viddler.com to your whitelist/normal referer list so that this doesn't happen.
    This is not an exhaustive list of things which can cause this problem, but it appears that anything like the two above examples which mess with the http referer header will cause it. Maybe reinstalling is not necessary if you simply check anything that may be modifying this option.

  • Why do some videos from some website stop working after seconds or minutes on a new iPad

    I subscribe to some website posting videos. The videos will start as it should and then stop after, sometimes seconds, and sometimes minutes after the beginning.
    The iPad is less than 3 weeks old. it is already the second. The first was a 16 GB this one is a 32 GB. no difference. This issue does not happen with only one website but other posted videos from other websites.

    This and other answers helped me to understand better why I cannot view these videos and search for answers. I found that the videos posted by this website end in .cfm, and doing research cfm is Adobe and is not compatible with apple software ? why this is not resolved is surprising to me - Several other people experience the same issue as I (dating 2007-to 2013) I am not computer literate but I know how to find information on the web and know +or -  how to use the programs. There seems to be nothing that will convert these videos into a format that the iPad could process and allow. should I buy quicktime for my windows device and transfer/sync it to the ipad (?)(3 weeks old I paid $900) will this work. I have tried to upgrade the firmware to my router but no luck there either; even following all the steps religiously. the unzip is not working? I get a file the upgrade button rejects.
    if it is this cfm format that is doing that, then there is no reason to spend x$ into a new router : the issue will remain the same- is this statement correct ?
    your help is greatly appreciated.

  • HT1338 best way to extract a video from a website?

    what is the best way to extract a video from a website? THANKS!

    how bout a bit more thought on this one, some people are trying to pull a video clip from their 15 seconds of fame on channel 7 news,
    or perhaps a short intro video clip, on a site they own becuase it is playing as flash. since they never had hard copy of the video clip, its difficult to ask themselves for permission, if they don't know how, which is, i'm sure, why this fellow did indeed ask.
    no such thing as dumb questions...just helpful ones that others may also wonder.

    There is a version of Firefox 4 available for PPC Macs:
    TenFourFox 4.0.1 Firefox 4 For PowerPC Browser Released
    Version 4.0.1 of TenFour Fox, FloodGap's port of Firefox 4 for Power PC
    Macs that supports both Mac oS X 10.4 and 10.5. has been released.
    Mozilla.org dropped support for OS 10.5 after Firefox 3.6 and for Power
    PC with the fourth beta of Firefox 4.
    TenFourFox uses almost all the same code as Firefox 4 and has nearly all
    the same features, including faster JavaScript, WebM video, and HTML 5
    and CSS 3 support, as well as new and emerging Web features, but with
    the code needed to keep your Power Mac functional and fast. Out of beta
    and it's ready for action, versiob 4.0.1 is a performance, security and
    stability update incorporating Mozilla's Firefox 4.0.1 plus AltiVec acceler
    -ation for WebM and browser graphics, and G5 JavaScript acceleration.
    For more information, visit:
    http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
    Source: from http://www.applelinks.com - posted April 25, 2011)
    Now for the intersting bit: TenFourFox, like Firefox, does not support most plug-ins. Unless you are prone to headaches (in which case don't) you can read about that here:
    http://code.google.com/p/tenfourfox/wiki/PluginsNoLongerSupported
    But there is a workaround!
    Open TenFourFox and type in the address bar: about:config (no spaces) and click return. This gives you a warning that it might harm the application. Ignore that and click on 'I'll be careful, I promise' and you get the config file that you can edit - with great care.
    Look/search (scroll down) for: tenfourfox.plugins.enabled
    Set it to true. (Double click it to toggle it)
    Now close TenFourFox, open it again, and Flash will now work, as it now uses the plug-ins that Safari has stored.
    With SilverLight, Microsoft attempted to create their own version of what a replacement for Flash could be - but not to universal acclaim. You can read more about it here:
    http://silverlight.net/
    So, if you go to any sites that have been designed for this new Silverlight stuff, you can download the plug-in from here (but make certain that you are downloading SilverLight v.1.0 for OS X (10.4.8 upwards) if you are using a PPC Mac, but even this will not work with Safari 4. Version 2 only works with Intel Macs and does work with Safari 4/5. The solution is to download and install the latest version of Flip4Mac, which now includes a Silverlight component:
    http://dynamic.telestream.net/downloads/download-flip4macwmv.htm
    But the latest news is that Microsoft will probably abandon Silverlight in favour of HTML5:

    I am unable to view flash videos from all websites except youtube after updating to Firefox 4. All help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance :)

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    * https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
    * [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
    In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in <u>[[Safe mode]]</u>:
    * Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    * Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)

  • HT201068 why all videos from Chinese websites cannot be opened after the update??

    why all videos from Chinese websites cannot be opened after the Remote Desktop Client Update 3.8.2 v1.1??

    That's not a thing that can happen.  Your problem with videos is unrelated to the Remote Desktop Client Update 3.8.2 v1.1.
    There were several OS updates recently as well, which could have affected video playback though.
    What application do you use to play the videos?
    Are the videos streaming from the internet or are they downloaded first and then played?
    what format are the videos?  what file extension?

  • Stopping embedded video from loading multiple times

    Hi,
    just started using Edge Animate. I have some experience with Flash and After Effect so the layout is pretty familiar to me. I have no background in coding so I am very happy that it generates codes for me.
    My goal is to make a simple html5 site with links / embedded videos to my contents (500 and vimeo). I copied some codes used for Youtube embedding, sub'd the url with vimeo url, and it worked fine. I used a "play video" button on the main page to trigger loading the video page (see my code below).
    It worked great the first time I clicked the button and went to the video page. However, upon returning to the main page, and click the "play video" button again, a duplicate copy of the video is loaded right below the video loaded upon first click. This occurs for as many times as I click the play video button.
    Anyone knows how to fix this?
    Thanks
    Pako
    sym.play("VideoPage");
    var youtubevid = $("<iframe/>");
    sym.$("vcontainer").append(youtubevid);
    youtubevid.attr('type','text/html');
    youtubevid.attr('width','500');
    youtubevid.attr('height','375');
    youtubevid.attr('src','vimeo code');
    youtubevid.attr('frameborder','0');      
    youtubevid.attr('allowfullscreen','0');  

    Adjust the line
         sym.$("vcontainer").append(youtubevid);
    to this
        sym.$("vcontainer").empty().append(youtubevid);
    The addition of the empty() method is to make sure it clears out the container on successive clicks.
