Help needed in playing HTML ' object ' videos with formats mov, avi, wmv...

Hi,
Here is where I am at this juncture...
I have a requirement wherein I need to render an HTML text containing an '<object>' tag which embeds a video, for example:-
<object width="320" height="240"
           data="javascript/media/ABC.wmv"
           type="application/x-mplayer2">
          <param name="url" value="javascript/media/ABC.wmv" />
</object>
Now I need to render this video into my Flex Web Application.
One way to do it, as I see, is somehow extract the 'data' attribute and put it as a 'source' for spark VideoPlayer.
Is there any better way to do this?
Also note that, I require to render all video formats (avi, mov, wmv etc.) and not just flv or f4v. Any pointers for this would be appreciated.
Thanks

Not so "easy share" after all is it?

Question: Are these still images jpeg or Kodak's EXIF? or are you using the camera in HD movie mode where iMovie fails to recognize the file format/s?
If you read the system requirements for this device it clearly states X.3 or higher. However, I'm wondering if this also includes X.5.1 or not .....

    Your System Details List shows that you have a user.js file in the profile folder to initialize prefs each time Firefox starts.

    You can check its content with a plain text editor (right-click: Open with) if you didn't create this file yourself.
    The user.js file is read each time Firefox is started and initializes preferences to the value specified in this file, so preferences set via user.js can only be changed temporarily for the current session.
    You can delete a possible user.js file and numbered prefs-##.js files and rename (or delete) the prefs.js file to reset all prefs to the default value including prefs set via user.js and prefs that are no longer supported in the current Firefox release.

  • Help needed too make a flash presentation with sound

    Hi Folks,
    I've recently kicked off a 'not - for - profit' project to raise awareness of the effects of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder in Veterans.  I've been trying to make a flash video with an MP3 sound clip and slide images but I'm having makor problems with getting the file made.
    Is there anyone around that would be able to help with this project by making the presentation video for me?  I wouldn't be able to properly pay the person as funds are very restricted but I'd be happy for a credit to go in at the end of the video kisting you as 'producer', or something similar.
    This video has to be made to coincide with Veterans week in the UK  - 19-27 June 2010, so needs to be made and then uploaded ASAP.
    I can offer a nominal payment of £10, as a thank you once the file's completed and running.  I can't cope with making the file because of my disability, so I hope someone can help me.
    Regards

  • Help needed to display character vaiable in currency format

    Hi Friends
    In a SAP Script I am passing a currency field to the subroutine as an i/p parameter and since it gets converted to character format in subroutine because of 'itcsy' , ihave deleted the trailing zeroes and decimal points from the field and performed calculations on the field, now i need to pass this char field back to SAP script but i need to display that field in currency format with commas and decimal points in the script...how do i do that???
    Thanks
    Vishal.

    Hi Vishal,
    When you pass the currency amount into the perform, no need to remove the trailing zeros and the decimal point.
    Only thing you need to remove is the comma seperator as it gives a runtime error during calculation.
    To convert it back to the format with comma, write the below command:
    WRITE v_Item_total currency '2' to v_item_char.
    CONDENSE v_item_char.
    Here v_item_total is a number which is converted to comma seperated number and passed to char variable.
    This char variable is then passed to the SCRIPT.
    regards,
    Gaurav.

  • HELP! Converting MPEG4 into Mov, AVI, WMV

    I made a small clip on iMovie. I need to upload to a website for my band. I clicked on Share then export movie to my desktop. The website clearly says..."For video, we accept the following formats: WMV, MOV, AVI, MPG, MP4, FLV"
    Also, "SPECIAL NOTE ABOUT VIDEO:
    GigMasters will automatically convert all WMV, MOV, AVI, MPG, and MP4 files to FLV. The conversion process will change the size of your video to 320 x 240 if it's not that size already. Also, the "audio sampling rate" of the video must be 11025 hz, 22050 hz, or 44,100 hz. Otherwise the audio may be garbled on playback."
    Everytime I try to upload it tells me, "We do not accept the format of the file you selected. Please make sure your file format matches one of those listed above."
    Somebody please help. Thank you.

    If using 4:3, which would be better given the AR of the movie required by your website, using the export to movie and then choosing the mobile size should be just fine. However your website may not like the .m4v extension added to the movie, in which case simply open the movie in Quicktime and select save as from the file menu, the resulting video will now be in a .mov container which you can then try uploading to your website.

  • Help needed for a new Mac user with his photo and video librarys

    after swopping my Ericson for an iphone a year ago. then taking delivery of an iPad on launch day. I have finally taken the plunge and swopped my windows pc for a lovely 27" iMac... what have I been doing all these years using windows? using the Mac is a joy.
    As I get more involved with their products I am constantly fascinated (and frustrated) by Apples way of doing things. this situation is no exception and I need Apple people with Apple experience to help me make a decision. 
    I am looking at software to organise my photos and videos. I have approximately 7000 photos residing on a windows home server. in addition to that there are some 200 or so HD videos taken with either my Sanyo Xacti camcorder or Sony DSC W300 camera. both cameras I think produce MPEG format
    my first experience was iPhoto. great for the `price' but not very flexible. single libraries, poor editing facilities. and because I have files referenced and not copied to my iPhoto library, if I deleted from the library its not deleted from the server (and vice versa). this leads to images being displayed in the library that don't exist etc.
    then I downloaded the Aperture 3 trial. great until I came across the `Unsupported file format' situation with the MPEG videos that strangely enough, iPhoto will recognise and play (the Apple way of doing things).
    1. should I put the photos on the Mac instead of the server?
    2. Is there a better way of managing the images for deletions etc
    3. should I stick with Aperture because of the editing
    4. is there a better software or way of managing the videos
    sorry for the ramble but its all new to me

    had a good session on all three of the recommended programs and now have a better understanding of the excellent advice I have been given.
    iPhoto
    great `free' program that is easy to use but somewhat limited on features. think I would always be looking to upgrade from here (feels a bit boring)
    Aperture
    really enjoyed using this but at £170! a hefty price tag considering its limited file support. fortunately its only my camera video clips (MPEG) that it wont view. my camcorder files (MP4) are fine so this is looking better as a one stop solution.
    Elements
    much more than just a image touch up. considering what it can do.. very good value at around £60. teamed with iPhoto it becomes even more attractive.
    My issue still remains with the masters file location.
    I would prefer to keep all my media on the external server to ensure I have a fail safe recovery option. its a 4TB 5 disk affair which contains all the family music, video images and DVD's etc (likely to change to a Mac server in the future!)
    one feature that I cant find, (even in Aperture which surprises me), is the ability to automatically manage deletions from referenced locations? i.e. delete a file from the server and when aperture opens up the thumbnails are updated. or, delete a referenced master in Aperture and an option comes up to delete the referenced file on the external drive.
    how would a professional photographer or studio using Aperture manage this process (or would they use something else?)
    forgot to mention that through our student facilities i can get a discounted copy of Photoshop CS5 for around £175 which is close to Aperture. is this a worthwhile option or overkill

  • Help needed to play videos

    Hi, I am new Apple user and my work requires that I view various streaming videos from various sites. I am thus far, not able to view even one !

  • URGENT help needed in creating external xml video plalist. Please help!

    I was given an assignment to  create and external video playlist using an xml file.  I have never used  flash before, know nothing about encoding and all that was given to the  class in terms of instuctions was a short tutorial that has no  resources for troubleshooting.  We were given everything; the external  playlist file equipped with the video skin, the video list, actionscript  that loads the xml and the xml file.  We were told that all we need to  do is change the names of the videos in the xml file to match the names  of our videos.  I did that.  We were also told we needed to "name  target", but we were not informed on how to do this.  I have tried  everything, visited every tutorial and I cannot figure out how to get  this damn thing to work.  I cannot even get flash to load the xml file.  PLEASE HELP.
    Here is the xml file:
    <?xml version = "1.0" encoding = "i-8859-1"?>
    <playlist>
    <ADogWithoutABone
    flvurl="ADogWithoutABone.flv"
    desc="Hyper Wall First Video" />
    <Highway
    flvurl="Highway.flv"
    desc="Hyper Wall Second Video" />
    <PsychoBabble
    flvurl="PsychoBabble.flv"
    desc="Hyper Wall Third Video" />
    <SomethingElse
    flvurl="SomethingElse.flv"
    desc="Hyper Wall Fourth Video" />
    </playlist>
    I tried putting in the entire address of the file location, but it did nothing.
    Here is the actionscript in the flash file:
    var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
    xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, xmlLoaded);
    xmlLoader.load(new URLRequest("playlistXML.xml"));
    function xmlLoaded(event:Event):void {
    var playlistXML:XML = new XML(event.target.data);
    var item:XML;
    for each(item in playlistXML.videoname) {
    trace("item: "+item.attribute("flvurl").toXMLString());
    myPlayList.addItem({label:item.attribute("desc").toXMLString(), data:item.attribute("flvurl").toXMLString()});
    //Select the first video
    myPlayList.selectedIndex = 0;
    //And automatically play it
    myPlayScreen.play(myPlayList.selectedItem.data);
    //Add a listener to detect when new video is selected and play it
    function listListener(event:Event) {
    myPlayScreen.play(event.target.selectedItem.data);
    myPlayList.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, listListener);
    I  tried placing the full address of the xml file in, along with the file  address of the videos, but again it did nothing.  Everything is located  in the same file, and the videos in a sub file in that file. I tried  taking out the sub file and putting all the videos in the same file, but  it did nothing.  I am sure it's something very simple, but like I said I  have NO experience with this whatsoever. I am SO lost and DESPERATELY  need help. PLEASE someone SAVE MEEEE!
    Thanks

    It might be a crossdomain.xml problem.
    Please make sure that the server hosting the xml allows the domain where the swf is hosted.

    <cross-domain-policy>

  • Help needed in file tx from MBP with blacked out screen to ext. HDD

    just got off the phone with Apple .... seems like I might have a cursed NVIDIA graphics card in my Macbook Pro 2007 model (2.4GHz core2duo)
    had basically kept my MBP ('07 model) in sleep mode when I went to office. When i came back, the white light in the front wasn't pulsing anymore and it was replaced by a bright constant white light - proceeded to open the lid... and the screen was totally dark ... tried a few key combinations in random to get it up and running but to no avail .. then checked a few forums on this issue... seems like lots of ppl have the issue but a lot of them also managed to get the screen back on by resetting the SMC and PRAM (which I proceeded to try) ... unfortunately hasn't worked for me despite multipe resets of the SMC and PRAM. Gave Apple a call and all things point to the graphics card having conked out ... this ***** big time!! ...
    The worst thing is that after switching on my machine, I can still load software by doing the keyboard shortcut for spotlight and typing the application ... e.g. itunes is working and I'm still managing to play songs through myh machine.. only issue is that the display is totally dark...
    Now.. my big issue before I send it across to the service centre is backing up my "Downloads" folder....
    Can someone help me with how I can go about doing this through terminal ? I think I just might be able to pull it off with the keyboard if I get sufficient and specific help!!!!
    basically I'm looking for transfer of all contents from "Downloads" folder to an external hard disk with the name "Active" ...
    help would be greatly appreciated!
    Any suggestions on methods of backing up my data would be great!!...
    Also, are there any precautions I should be taking/ things I ought to be wary of when sending my machine in to an authorized service centre?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Does your hard drive spin up? And do you have access to another MAC?
    If so, you could see if you could mount your Mac's hard drive on the other Mac's desktop using FireWire Target Disk mode:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1661
    Also mount an external drive equal or larger than your internal drive on the host Mac. Then use a cloning utility like Super Duper on the host Mac to clone your internal drive onto the external drive. This will give you a backup of everything that is on your internal drive--it will be an exact copy. This would take some time, but would likely be the best way to back up everything on your drive.
    http://www.shirt-pocket.com/SuperDuper/SuperDuperDescription.html
    It is especially important to back up everything on your drive, because when your Mac goes in for repair, sometimes the drive is erased and the OS reinstalled in the process of troubleshooting. Also, they will likely elect to thoroughly test the machine and do any repairs that are necessary, which could possibly include replacing the hard drive. If you have any sensitive data on the drive, you may even want to erase it before sending it in just on general principles.
    Good luck!

  • Cannot play any online video with macbook pro retina Safari. (Youtube, youku, tudou, etc..)

    Help!!!
    I'm using Macbook Pro Retina, my version is ME866LLA
    My Safari version is: 7.0.6
    I installed the latest version's adobe flash. I'v tried reset settings for safari, and I also checked Security Settings ->Internet Plugins. I do believe all are correct.
    But still I can't play any video from any online video websites(Like youtube, youku, tudou etc).
    Like below screenshot, always loading, but never start playing. I even fixed the permissions for my disk, still didn't work.
    Anybody can tell me what happened?? At the very beginning(when I first got this computer), I think this works, but don't know what happened. I have this issue for long time!!
    Anybody can help me? Great thanks!!

    Hi ..
    You may be using HTML 5.
    Click here >  YouTube
    Then click:  Use the Default Player
    If that doesn't help, from your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Security tab.
    Make sure:   Allow Plug-ins  is selected.
    If that doesn't help, troubleshoot Safari extensions.
    Back to the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab.
    Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.
