I really can't say very much because of the "terms of use" of these forums. Yes, there is a difference. There is also going to be a difference between what is legal in the US vs. the UK. The following information is courtesy of regular forum memember & poster, Dave Sawyer.
"The US Digital Millenium Copyright Act (DMCA) makes it illegal to break the encryption on any digital medium such as a DVD. So if the DVD is copy protected, as almost all commercial DVDs are, in the US it's illegal to break the copy protection and hence illegal to copy the DVD."
"And the US courts have in some cases held web sites liable for posting information on how to do such protection breaking, so many sites, Apple included, prohibit such discussions, even though it may be perfectly legal in the country of the person asking."
That's all I can say.

  • FaceTime to call a Pre-recorded Video?

    I don't know if this is the right place. I would like to create "something" where a user could dial an actual number via FaceTime and reach a pre-recorded video viewable through FaceTime. For example, lets say I want a person to call 555-1234 via FaceTime and what they will get a video playing a movie trailer.
    Anyone know how I can figure this out?

    sorry, no answer... I'd just like to build on this if you don't mind.
    How about including a FaceTime voicemail feature too. They call you, you're away and instead of an impersonal message, be able to SEE your FaceTime voicemail message?

  • How can you get your iPhone videos to compress to one video instead of 5 different frames?

    How can you get your iPhone videos to compree to one video instead of different frames

    It sounds like you to 5 separate videos. If you start recording, then stop it, then start it again, you will have 2 videos. Not 1. As for splicing them together, you will need a video editing package for your PC. I don't know if Windows Movie Maker (or whatever they're calling it now) can handle this or not. On a Mac, I'd say just use iMovie.

  • Adobe Presenter using pre-recorded video

    is there a way for adobe presenter 8 to take a pre-recorded video instead a webcam for video input?
    so i have a pre-recorded video file, and I can run it side by side with the slide, and program when the transition supposed to be, when the video and the slide should be side by side, and when either the video or the presentation should take front ground; just all the lovely thing that we could have done with Presenter normally, but the input is not a live presentation of myself infront of the camera, but of a colleague which is pre-recorded.
    thanks.

    Hi Jorma,
    Yes that would be ideal, I used captivate before. The much older version that is.
    Unfortunately my current employer only provides Adobe Presenter 8 with Office 2010, and the Adobe Creative Suits CS6, which includes Premiere, but not Captivate.
    So, would like to get as much as possible from the tools available, before I push another a shopping list on the executive’s desk.

  • How can I get an mp4 video running on iPad Mini?

    How can I get an mp4 video running on iPad Mini, which is already in the iTunes File?

    Pad2, the new iPad Supported Video Formats & Movie Formats
    H.264 video up to 1080p, 30 frames per second, High Profile level 4.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats;
    MPEG-4 video up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats;
    Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format
    You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

  • How can I get an inserted  video (FLV) in Presenter 7 to stay on the screen once it has finished pla

    How can I get an inserted  video (FLV) in Presenter 7 to stay on the screen once it has finished playing? Right now it disappears once it is done. I'd like it to remain on the screen, or loop if possible, until the user manually moves the presentation forward.

    Hi,
    You may set the slide setting as 'Advance by user'.
    So,
    a. Insert flv on a slide.
    b. On presenter ribbon goto Slide Manager .
    c. Select the slide on which flv is inserted and set Advance by user 'Yes'
    Hope this solves your purpose.
    Thanks,
    Alpi

  • In the iMovie 11 event library, how can I get the iPhoto video clips to combine with my camcorder pics listed below and in chronological order?

    In the iMovie 11 event library, how can I get the iPhoto video clips to combine with my camcorder pics listed below and in chronological order?

    Try forcing iPhoto to load the Library on the External Hard drive by launching it while holding down the Option key. Choose the Library on the External HD, and quit iPhoto, see if iMovie can see the Library with the iPhoto Videos contained inside.

  • How do I get iPhone 3GS videos to automatically sync t Apple TV?

    How can I get the 3Gs video clips automatically to my Apple TV? They seem to just import in to iPhoto, but I'm not sure how to get them from there in to iTunes (Movies) automatically.
    Do I need to manually drag them in to iTunes each time I have a new clip?

    OK thanks - was just hoping that there'd be a slicker way of doing this.
    Like an "automatically import videos into to itunes"-checkbox in iPhoto or something.

    Hi jocelyn279,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    To sync videos from iPhoto to your iPhone you would use iTunes to facilitate the syncing. Please use the attached article for information and instructions on how to sync videos.
    iTunes: Syncing photos
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236
    To sync photos from a Mac or Windows PC to your device using photo applications
    Select "Sync Photos from."
    Choose the application you want to sync photos from in the pop up menu.
    Choose to sync all photos or selected photos. Select "Include videos" to sync videos stored with your photo library.
    Click Apply.
    Have a great day,

  • How do I get my iphoto videos into imovie

    how do I get my iphoto video into imovie

    1- on iphoto menu bar click FILE >> EXPORT and export it in ORIGINAL version to NEW EVENTS folder in MOVIES >> IMOVIE EVENTS >> NEW EVENTS
    2- try to open the video you want with quicktime player.
    IF IT OPENS WITH QUICKTIME PLAYER:
    - on imovie menu bar click FILE >> IMPORT and then import your movie. iMovie should convert it to a usable format which takes a few seconds and the your video will appear on the new event folder on the imovie screen (below "iphoto videos")
    IF IT DOES NOT OPEN WITH QUICKTIME PLAYER:
    - download "MPEG streamclip" or "Handbrake" or any program to convert videos into mov. (i think that's the format quicktime player plays). Anyway, if you use MPEG STREAMCLIP, on the menu bar go FILE >> OPEN FILES >> open the file you want (remember it should be in the "new events" folder because you just put it there in step 1). The video will open on the screen.
    - still on MPEG streamclip, go on the menu bar and click FILE >> EXPORT TO QUICKTIME. This will convert the video automatically.
    - go back to imovie. On the menu bar click FILE >> IMPORT >> MOVIES and select your video from the new event folder.
    This is what worked for me... I am no expert, it was all trial and error, but it worked in the end!

    How do I get u-tube videos to run smoothly.  They stop and start and jump.

    Sounds like they are buffering because your internet speed is way to slow.
    To check your internet speed, go to: > Speakeasy Speed Test
    or > Speedtest.net - The Global Broadband Speed Test
    Plus you can also check your internet speed using the Activity Monitor, which is in your Utilities Folder.
