Flash fails to play videos with hangul (korean) strings.

GOMTV just started the first StarCraft 2 GSL, and I've been watching VODs as I'm in North America and don't want to stay up until 7am every night. Thankfully GOM is giving away VODs, all you have to do is register at gomtv.net.
The issue is that some VODs fail to ever start streaming. For example, this one: http://www.gomtv.net/videos/1030/0
I just figured out that the few VODs that refuse to stream are the ones that have Hangul (the written form of Korean) in the title of the match. I do not think this is ArchLinux specific, as Flash on my Ubuntu machine behaves the exact same way. The Location bar in FireFox says "Waiting for 211.43.144.xxx", which is one of GOM's servers, but it never actually loads. I also know it doesn't effect the Windows version of Flash, as my friend watched these videos with no issue.
Anyone else counter this as well?

I've tracked down the file that the GOMTV player grabs, which is possibly what's causing the error. The URL is http://www.gomtv.net/gox/flash_channel. … dseq=10159
I can't think of a simple way to fix this, GreaseMonkey won't affect it since the URL itself is fetched from within Flash, not FireFox.

  • "Cannot play video with this frame rate&qu

    For reasons that aren't important here I cannot use the Zen video converting software. Instead, I've been using the trial version of the Caniusoft Video to Creative Zen converter. Only once has a video played, but as soon as I closed the video and opened it up again this message appeared. "Cannot play video with this frame rate." Daniusoft offers frame rates from 5 fps to 30. I've tried all of them and none of them work. Has this been a problem for others? Perhaps I need a different converter?
    ps.
    ..i'm converting flash video to avi. Does that make a difference?

    I can't answer your question in full (maybe somebody else can). However, I am aware that both the Zen and the Zen X-Fi can only play video files up to 320x240 resolution. Previous players like the Vision M were able to scale files down to this resolution on the fly, but not these two newer players.

    Hi salman254,
    If you are having issues with your iPhone being unable to play video with the Videos application, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
    First, quit all running applications and test again -
    Force an app to close in iOS
    Next, I would try restarting and if needed resetting the iPhone -
    Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -

  • How to play videos with mkv format on imac

    i have purchased a new imac(intel) just four days back. i want to know what is the method for playing videow with mkv format.

    It could be a 'difficult' form of Matroska file. FYI Matroska is just a container like MOV or AVI, and some mkv have the video encoded with Real Video Codec (RV9 RV10). Perian+QT can't decode this, but VLC will play .mkv files just fine on OS X, as long as they don't use H.264!
    It's a bit of a lottery until Matroska decide to support the Apple platform. I have found this:
    http://mkv4mac.free.fr/index.php?lang=en&p=lec
    which may help.
    But there may be another workaround: 1. Get Info the mkv file
    2. Change to extension to wmv. Save as wmv and that could work better.
    Or this link may be helpful:
    http://www.squidoo.com/mkv-converter-mac
    Recently, a poster (ZachP14) suggested this:
    "There's a program called Plex that runs .mkv files awesome on my 2.0 ghz macbook."
    http://www.plexapp.com/
    Maybe worth a try?

  • IPhoto won't play videos (with QT7), after renaming video files in Finder

    Hi folks,
    My iPhoto9 played video files with Quick time when double clicking the video files in iPhoto. Yesterday I renamed approx 50 video files in Finder (double clicked and renamed them). Now iPhoto won't play them when double clickling. The only way to play them is to a) drag/drop to vlc or b) double click them in Finder.
    How can I tell iPhoto to play the video files (interesting fact: the meta data still shows the video old file names)?
    Can anyone help me? Thanks!!!!
    Thanks
    AS

    I have not changed default seetings, so I assume I'm running Managed libary.
    The yes, that's the case. So, to do this you had to access the Package File and then rename the files. Wasn't the fact that the files are not directly accessible a hint?
    I tried overwriting iLife09 (without deleting the version that was on -> it didn't help!!)
    Nor would it. That might restore the applications (though without removing the receipts it won't be very effective) but the problem isn't the Applications. The problem is that you have corrupted the Library.
    What if I delete iLife and reinstall it. Will iPhoto then be able to play the videos (that I previously renamed with Finder)?
    No. Because, again, it will not undo what you did in the Library folder.
    As you have no back up, you no have exactly one option: Create a new Library and start over from scratch, importing the originals from the Library you trashed.

  • PrObLeM WiTh IpOd pLaYiNg ViDeOs WiTh No SoUnD!! HELP ME!!

    i have a ipod nano 8gb 3rd generation i just got a couple of weeks ago. i got it, read the directions, got the latest downloads, loaded itunes, put my music, videos, everything on itunes, and connected my i sync all of my music on mai ipod with no problem. but when i sync my videos onto my ipod....THERE IS NO SOUND!! the videos were previously converted before i synced them on the ipod. PLEASE HELP ME RESOLVE THIS PLEASE!!

    QuickTime expects video files with separate video and audio tracks, but many MPEG formats used a muxed (multiplexed) single track that contains both. Therefore, when you convert videos in iTunes to iPod format they only show the video and no sound since iTunes (really QuickTime) is not looking for the audio track within the video track and it gets lost.
    iPod plays video but not audio of some exported files
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302588
    One way to work around this is to use MPEG Streamclip to convert the files to fix this issue...
    http://www.squared5.com/
    but there are other applications besides MPEG Streamclip you can try as well.

  • Why does my iTunes not play Videos with AC3 passthrough?

    Hello everyone,
    I have a problem with my iTunes on my Mac (recent iTunes, recent OS X). As the title says, I can't play videos, that contain AC3 Audio. If I try to play a video with AC3 in iTunes, it just doesn't start playing. When I jump to a later chapter, it just shows one still frame but it doesn't start playing. QuickTime plays every video without any problem. I tried it with (self-encoded) Full HD (1080p) and also SD videos.
    QuickTime doesn't have any problem and also my 3rd Gen Apple TV streams the Video without any problem from iTunes... moveis I bought from the iTunes store also work without any problem in iTunes, as they all contain an AAC-Audio track. I didn't recognize that issue before I updated to Mountain Lion... or maybe to the latest version of iTunes.
    Does anybody know what possibly is the reason for that and how to solve it? Thank you!

    OK, I found another thread here, where my problem has already been solved. It works fine now. For everyone who got stuck on the same problem and finds my thread first, here's the solution, that helped me:
    - download A52Codec.component
    - move it to /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components/ and replace the existing file

  • Youtube is not playing videos with firefox 17.0, writes: an error has occurred please try again later. chrome is playing videos normally.

    I tried the advises with cookies and cache but it is still not working. i have windows vista and now i installed firefox 17.0. chrome is playing videos normally.

    Please check if all your plugins are up-to-date. To do this, go to the [http://mozilla.com/plugincheck Mozilla Plugin Check site].
    Once you're there, the site will check if all your plugins have the latest versions.
    If you see plugins in the list that have a yellow ''Update'' button or a red ''Update now'' button, please update these immediately.
    To do so, please click each red or yellow button. Then you should see a site that allows you to download the latest version. Double-click the downloaded file to start the installation and follow the steps mentioned in the installation procedure.
    If the above doesn't work then could you try disabling graphics hardware acceleration? Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
    You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
    Then perform these steps:
    *Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
    *In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
    *In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
    *Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
    Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
    [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
    [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
