FLV play reliably from CD-ROM?
Can a FLV video w/ a frame size of 800x450 reliably play off
of a CD-ROM? (It has a simple voiceover audio track, and will be
around 5 minutes long. The FLV will be embedded in an 800x600 flash
movie.). This is being produced for mass distribution with full
motion video being intersperced with 3D animations. Any
suggestions?
Thanks!
Yes there are know CD cache issues, read this to find out how
to get over
this using Jugglor.

When running long a FLV from CD-ROM the seek times
are terrible. Sometimes taking a full 3-4 minutes to seek
near the end of a 160x120 - 30 minute movie for example.
And that is on a 3ghz machine.
How can this be reduced to approx. 3-5 seconds?
This is what our customers expect from video.
They need to bounce around the video rapidly.
Also, splitting the FLV into smaller clips is not a solution
and we can't we install to the hard drive.
Thanks.HI
This is because of CD-ROM's cache. Heres a way to resolve
these issues.

Videoplayback.flv file downloaded from YouTube video via Safari will not play
Hello All,
Here is my question to you:
Has Safari been altered in such a manner as to NOT allow you to download videos direct from YouTube to your Mac without some intermediary interface?
Here are the steps I would use to download the source .flv video file from a video on YouTube to save it on my MacBook Pro:
1. Open Safari.
2. Go to http://www.youtube.com.
3. Enter name of video to view/download in the search bar and hit 'enter'.
4. Start video.
5. While video is playing:
A) Click on 'Window' in Safari's menu bar at the top of the screen.
B) Select 'Activity'.
6. A window will open showing data status of the video.
7. Locate the largest loading file size and wait until it is finished loading.
8. Double-click on that file size.
9. A small 'Downloads' window will appear showing file download status.
10. Navigate to your 'Downloads' folder and drag the file named 'videoplayback.flv to the desktop.
11. Double-click the aforementioned file to start the video in a suitable .flv player (I was using SWF & FLV Player originally).
This process no longer works. All I get is a black screen when I double-click the downloaded .flv file.
Notes:
The file size in Step 7 above would vary accordingly to the length of the video, but now every video I try to save as a .flv is approximately 1.7MB no matter how long the video is. Something isn't right here.
I had originally downloaded and used SWF & FLV Player to view my video when the above process used to work, but now it has upgraded itself to Elmedia Player and wants me to upgrade to the PRO edition to be able to download videos from YouTube.
Any insight to this will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance for reading and responding to my question!
Sincerely,
- Austin C.Thank you for your timely response and suggestion, Mr. Davis!
I did exactly as you said, made sure there was NO trace of the Elmedia player anywhere on my machine after the uninstallation procedure, but unfortunately this did not work.
When I dropped the videoplayback.flv file into the VLC player, I get this error message:
There is something deeper going on within Safari, I believe. The fact that different length videos on YouTube all yield the same 1.7MB file size when I try to download them is puzzling.
Thoughts? -

i'm currently downloading a blue ray movie...i know mac's cannot play blue ray, although it is a .m2ts file, and i hear you can play those files with VLC
because my laptop is 15', the movie aspect ratio is later than the screen itself
i'm using an hdmi to dvi cable to link my computer to my hdtv...
how would be the best way of playing back this video, retrieving the highest video quality?
i feel if i make it full screen on my laptop and mirror the exact screen to my tv its not going to be full 1080p, althought if i make it dual monitor mode and then play it from the tv's monitor it will be able to be full rez?
any suggestions would be great
thankshello,
thanks for the reply,
i go to film school, and it is someone's original content he is sharing.
that's nice to hear that it will push out the 1080p.
i suppose when i'm in extended desktop mode i just have to set up the menu>video>full screen from the tv and not the laptop monitor?
also i have tried to just close the laptop lid and move my wireless mouse around but my hdtv's screen remained black
one last question if that's alright! - have you heard anything on VLC playing m2ts files? i heard from somewhere it can, but havent found much info on it
thanks so much

Progressive Flash Not playing properly from remote server
I have Flash CS3.
PROBLEM: I've encoded a video using Flash's CS3 "Progressive
Download" option and then uploaded the resulting video (along with
it's associated files created by Flash ie: .fla, .swf, script
folder with action script, etc.) to my server (webpage and video
was created through Dreamweaver CS3).
RESULT: A flash video that plays on the web, but has pink
colored digital boxes that breakup the picture... poor quality.
Please follow this link for an example:
http://rivhawk.tripod.com/index.html
I've watched multiple step-by-step tutorials by Adobe for
creating and uploading Flash video, both with Flash CS3 and even
Dreamweaver CS3. I've tested by creating the flash content in Flash
CS3 and directly through Dreamweaver. The same digital noise, pink
blocks occured.
NOTE: Before uploading the flash content and associated
files, I tested the flash video in my browser through Dreamweaver
(from my local directory, not remote server)...and it
plays/operates perfectly. It's only once it's uploaded that the
problem occurs.
I've encoded the video with Flash 8 and Flash 9 at low,
medium and high qualities...same results (even by different
computers accessing the content on the internet). It happens in
Firefox and Internet Explorer.
After 3 days of tests and research (and viewing samples of
other beautiful progressive download videos on the internet) I'm
wondering if I am missing something very simple, if there is a bug,
is this a known issue etc.
Please help, and please understand that I've been through all
the tutorials on creating/using Flash Video...and specifically
using the Progressive Download option for use on remote servers
that don't have the Flash Media Server.
Please assist.> Hi, I am very new to the video thing. I created a Flash

You can play video from any server by using a full URL ie
http://www.anotherdomain.com/flashvideo.flv
<param name="movie" value="videos/rep.swf" />
Looks like you're building an FLV player in Flash to play
your video rather
than embedding it using DW. If so you need to open the source
FLA you used
to generate 'rep.swf' and insert a full URL to your flv file,
then publish
the swf and upload again.
> I've tried changing the value and embed source tags to
be complete urls
> referencing the actual video location, but I still get
an error saying the
> flv

requesting?
As above, or you can just embed the video on a web page in
DW, using a full
URL to your flv. If your flvs are on a server and you are
connected to the
internet, you should be able to play the flv using preview in
browser before
uploading the page. -
JMStudio: error when trying to play files from URL
JMStudio fails when I am trying to play files from youtube.
Error message "Could not create player for http://www.youtube.com/v/u0AXoIe9F6M".
Nevertheless it succeeds in playing *.flv files from the disk.
Whats the problem?Have you tried copying the said file over to your
desktop and opening it from there?
Yes, the files open when I do that. It has something to do with persmissions I guess on the other system, but I am logging in as the same user/password as when I log in directly. I ran the fix permissions under the disk utility, but still no good. It isn't just related to Excel files either; I am having these problems when I try it with Word too. -
When I first attached a cable from iphone6 to hdmi on tv, I was able to read kindle on tv. After watching movies and playing Pandora from iphone to tv through the cable, I can no longer read kindle through it. What settings do I need to change?
Hi,
Already mentioned on the following post:
http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Other-Notebook-PC-Questions/VGA-on-laptop-HDMI-on-TV-needs-connected/m-...
You need a CONVERTER, not ADAPTER The setup:
The following list may help:
http://www.ebay.com.au/sch/sis.html?_kw=HDMI+To+VGA+COMPONENT+Adaptor+A+V+Digital+Converter
Laptop (VGA) ---- Converter from VGA to HDMI ------ TV
You also need sound, you can buy a converter with sound OR connect sound directly from laptop to TV.

IPhone 4S won't play music from internal speaker
My iPhone 4S is having an issue with the internal speaker. Originally, I was able to play music from iTunes, Pandora, videos, etc. w/out having headphones or an external speaker system connected to the audio input. Now, the phone isn't playing back sound from the internal speaker, unless I have headphones/speaker connected. Keyboard clicks and text message alerts are also not coming through, even though that option is turned on. The Ring/Silent button is on, the volume is on high, and I've also restarted the phone a few times. The only way I've got the internal speaker to play w/out having an external speaker system connected to the audio input is if I test different ringers; then it will playback, but not for any other audio format (videos, songs, keyboard clicks, etc.)
Any ideas on how to fix this issue? I'm out of ideas...Thank you!!iWeb is an application to create webpages with.
It used to be part of the iLife suite of applications.
iWeb has no knowledge of the internal speaker on your iPhone.
You may want to ask in the right forum. -
i have been trying to upload more music to my iphone 3gs but whenever i try to even click on the artist or name buttons in itunes they dont get highlighted or anything all i can do is play music from my phone through itunes ... if you know of anything i have done wrong plz tell me how to fix (besides restore)
Success!! There truly is a light at the end of the tunnel. Apple support really did come through and I am successfully back into my account. Ready to purchase more music. I followed the instructions, with patience I thought I lost, submitted my problem, someone emailed me back within two days and all is now perfect. Thanks again Apple.
To all the frustrated users out there, don't lose hope!!! -
Need assistance with recent upgrade. I installed 6.1.2 and now my iPad is sluggish and will not play music from iTunes.
1. Close all apps in the Task Bar. Double-click the Home button and hold apps down for a second or two. Tap the minus sign to close app.
2. Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple Logo. -
What I am trying to do is very simple, and I am sure I have done it before.
I have an Apple TV (2nd Gen) connected to Wifi Network (Airport Extreme 802.11n) I want to stream content from the itunes library on my macbook pro over the wifi network to the Apple TV. This works no problem, home sharing is set up and I can see the itunes library under 'Computer' on the Apple TV interface. I can use the Apple Remote to scroll through and play content from my itunes. Works no problem.
Now I want to use the remote app on my ipad mini to control the apple tv. Using up to date app (Version 3.01) Again, everything looks like it should work. I have turned on Home Sharing on the remote app settings. It works fine and both my itunes library and Apple TV show up on the interface. I can touch the itunes icon and control the itunes on my computer and play music and video on my computer screen.
Now when I touch the apple tv icon I can't see my itunes library content to play on the apple tv. I see the below image. If I tap on the icon in the bottom left it takes me back to the screen in the first image. What is the strangest thing is that I can control the apple tv using the gestures interface! This isn't what I want though and I want to be able to see the itunes library on the screen of the ipad and play it on the apple tv. You can see in the video on this link (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UvEpgcE9KCs). This is what I am trying to do and I just don't understand why I don't get the screen seen at 1:25 in the video. Instead I get the screen seen in the below image.OK, Problem solved. Software on Apple TV was VERY outdated. It had been sitting in the box for over a year and needed an update. Problem solved!

Can't play music from external hard drive through iTunes on Windows 8?
I recenty bought a new laptop running Windows 8 with a small internal hard drive, so I don't want to store all my music on it. I backed up my iTunes library onto an external hard drive, but when I plug this into my new laptop I can't play my music no matter what I do.
I have tried:
- selecting the newly created iTunes library by pressing Shift when opening iTunes and playing a song directly through the iTunes player. It selects the song, comes up with the speaker icon next to it to indicate it is playing, but the time doesn't count down and no music plays
- I have gone into Advanced Preferences and specified the iTunes media folder location, still no songs play
- coped a single song onto my new laptop desktop and tried to play this through iTunes, Media Player and the Music app. Media player says "Windows Media Player encountered a problem while playing the file". The Music app says it can't find any music on the computer, so when I select the music folder from my hard drive, it says "Can't Play. Make sure your computer's sound and video cards are working and have the latest drivers, then try again".
I know my laptop can play sound and video as I can watch YouTube videos with no problems. I went to Windows Update, and there are no available updates, I already have every available update.
I have also plugged in a different external hard drive, with different music files on it, and have encountered the exact same problems. It seems I can't play any music at all on this laptop. I know the files are not corrupted, as I can plug both hard drives into a different laptop that runs on Windows 7 and play the music on them with no troubles. Could it be a problem with the files compatibility with Windows 8?
I can also access my iPhone backup through this iTunes library on the new computer, so I know there is no problem with my backup.I am experiencing a similar problem in Windows 7 64bit. Since my laptop has a 128gb SSD, I have loaded my iTunes library on to an external drive. I can sync my iPhones and iPads from this library, and the songs play fine from those devices. However, when I select a song from my library, and click the play button, nothing happens. iTunes does nothing. I have also tried right-clicking mp3s in my library and selecting "Play", with no results. I do not receive an error message of any kind.
I have also noticed that some of my mp3's within iTunes denote the Time as 00:00. The same mp3's will play and register properly using other mp3 players on my computer, and they also play normally on my iPhones and iPads.
I am running Windows 7 x64 on a Lenovo T530, in iTunes 11.1.3. Everything else in iTunes appears to function normally. I can listen to internet radio stations without an issue, through iTunes, and they play as they should. I have tried three different external drives, with different drive formats, and they all have the same issue. If I copy my iTunes library back to my internal drive, iTunes will play my mp3s.
I did not have this issue with iTunes 10, so I am assuming it is something that has occured within the last few updates.
Has anyone found a fix for this? Unfortunately, I am forced to use iTunes 11 because of my iOS devices, otherwise I would revert to iTunes 10. -

How can I play sound from my MacBook Pro through my iMac?
I have a MacBook pro which I am looking to use for only iTunes or Spotify for the time being but the iMac built in speakers are better.
I am internet sharing from an ethernet on my iMac and the Macbook pro is connected to the shared network.
Can I play music from Spotify on my macbook pro but out of my iMac speakers?
Thanks
JamesFor sound, try the audio output port and connecting to the RCA audio input ports on your Pioneer receiver. Use something like this:

Hi, we have two iphones with two accounts. The apple tv automatically syncs with one account to play music from the iphone to apple tv. How can I use my iphone to do the same?
Our experience is a little different, we have different iTunes accounts for different family members, each family member has their own iTunes library on their own mac, each mac uses my Apple ID for homesharing and we are able to play purchased content from each library on the Apple TV.

Sort by BPM and key????
