How do I play videos from an SD_Video card?

Click on the SD card that appears on your desktop until you get to the DCIM folder.  Click on folder until you get to the movie files.  Drag these files onto your desktop.  You can erase the ones on your SD card if you do not want to same them on there.
Depending on the movie file types you should be able to play them w/either QT 10, QT 7.x or VLC.  It helps to have Perian installed.
Also, helps if you would advise us which OS is installed on your MBP and which model MBP you have.  Some come w/a built-in SD slot, others you will need a card reader.

  • How to reference/play video from the MicroSD card

    I am developing an interactive video application using AIR on Android and need to store media on an external MicroSD card.  How do I access that file location in AIR?  I have tried:
    /mnt/Removable/MicroSD/
    /mnt/external1/
    etc. 
    Is there code similar to:
    var myFile:File = File.documentsDirectory.resolvePath("Test Folder/test.txt");
    That would allow me to reference the external storage?

    OK...I am highly confused.  And I think you are a bit confused too...adding to the confusion.
    Log and CAPTURE is for capturing from tape. If you aren't capturing from tape...but rather an SD card...do not use Log and CAPTURE.  Tapeless capture uses log and TRANFER.  That's what I mention in that tutorial. 
    >How do I set up the preferences so that I get the capture window that shows the clips that I can import (capture) from my SD card?
    Watch the video again. You open Log and Transfer...click on the folder icon on the upper left...and then navigate to the backup of the card you make.  The FIRST step is to back up that card.  Then you use L&T...and direct it to the root level of the backup folder.  You click OK and all the clips in that folder will appear in the Log and Transfer window.
    >I keep getting prompted with a message that my HDV deck is not connected.
    Because you are opening Log and CAPTURE.  Again...log and transfer is what you want.
    >I'm just trying to have my video be captured wirelessly from the SD card into FCP.
    Sorry, you can't do that. You cannot do this wirelessly. You need to connect the camera to the computer with a wire...typically USB.  OR...you take the SD card out and either use an SD card reader connected to the computer via a cable (USB), or if you have a laptop with an SD card slot...well then, that would be wireless. Just slap the card into the computer and watch it show up on the desktop.  Then back up the footage, then Log and Transfer.
    >It's got to do something with setting it up in wither Easy Setup menu or one of the others.
    No. You do not need to use the Easy Setups. That is for tape capture. You determine what codec you will be converting to in the Log and Transfer preferences. Watch the video again...I explain this thoroughly.

  • How do I play video from my macbook pro to my tv?

    How do I play video from my macbook pro to my tv?

    What model MacBook Pro do you have? On my late 2011, I used to use a Mini DisplayPort/Thunderbolt to HDMI adapter to get video and audio from my Mac to my television. I used this adapter from Monoprice. Worked great - I just no longer use it because I bought a 27" monitor.
    You can also use AirPlay mirroring if you've the right MBP and an Apple TV - but the wired method works, too.

  • How do I play video from photostream on apple TV?

    PhotoStream is now available on my applet TV and the notes on the upgrade said I could play video from my Photo Stream.  However the Photo Stream on the apple TV only presents photos for viewing.  Any idea on how to get it to show my videos?

    Unfortunately that's not possible.

  • How do you play videos from the "Videos" app in the background IPod 4G

    Hey
    I used to have an app which allowed me to play videos from the "Videos" app on my ipod touch 4th gen. But the other day I had to wipe my ipod and can no longer get this app. Is there any other app which imports your videos from the "videos" app or is there a way to play videos in the background using the "videos" app.
    Anny help will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks
    Karl

    You can only play videos in the Videos app when the Video app is on the screen. Video, and any audio with it, do not play when using another app.
    You can try changing the Media Kind in Get Info>Option in iTunes on the computer to Music Video and see if that works

  • How do I upload videos from an SD card to the movies folder in Finder on my iMac?

    I'm having trouble uploading videos from my SD card to my iMac. I'm wanting to save it in the "Movies" folder in Finder. When I open the SD card on my iMac, I am able to view the videos in QuickTime Player. They were an AVCHD file format. It gave me no option of saving the videos - not even with dragging them. So, I tried moving all of the files versus just one (in other words, instead of opening the file to view all of the videos, I just dragged the whole file without opening it).  It saved to my iMac, but in the same way as it was on the SD card - I wasn't able to actually save the videos themselves. They were only able to be viewed with QuickTime Player - I couldn't do anything else with them. So, I took my SD card out of the computer and put it back in the video camera. I then realized than I could not view the videos in the camera - they wouldn't show up. I then plugged the SD card back into the iMac. The videos were now saved under a BDMV folder versus the AVCHD folder they had been under earlier. The AVCHD folder was there, but would not open. When I tried to open it, all it said was, "This operation could not be completed." The BDMV folder allows me to view the videos in QuickTime Player, but I still cannot save them to my iMac from the SD card. I even tried saving the videos to iPhoto by dragging the BDMV folder into iPhoto. All it did was say, "The following files could not be imported. The file is in an unrecognizable format." So, now, I am completely confused as to what I need to do as to save the videos onto my computer, and even how the videos are now saved under a BDMV folder versus the original AVCHD folder in the SD card. I'd greatly appreciate it if someone could help me with this problem. Thanks!

    You should have an icon of the SD card on the desktop - do you? If not, go to Finder Preferences > General and make sure these items are checked to show:
    Once the icon is showing, you can just drag the card content to your desktop. It depends on what you want to do with the video - just watch or edit in iMovie to share online or burn a DVD?

  • How do I play video from my ipod touch on my tv

    I want to play a downloaded video from my ipod touch on my tv, everything I've read so far talks about jailbreaking my ipod and this is something I really don't want to do. My tv has HDMI, USB and AV cable ports, I've tried plugging in via the USB with the standard cable but nothing happens, do I need a different cable or an app to make it work. Thanks.

    You need an adopter, See:
    iPhone, iPad, iPod: TV out support

    or using AirPlay with an Apple TV
    Note that only the 5G iPod mirrors the iPod's screen on a TV. The 4G and below only display TV out with apps that support TV out

  • How do I play video from my netgear mystora NAS drive?

    Hi,
    Please help. I was wondering if it is possible to play video stored on my Netgear Mystora NAS drive through my ipad?

    YES! it works! I am using the Stora as my central file repository for streaming via Upnp-AV or file access together with MLPlayer lite and FileBrowser apps respectively. ipad plays .mp4 video files only, though. So, videos must be specially prepared for being smoothly played through streaming directly from the Stora unless the videos are already ipad optimized.

  • How do i play videos from my mac to my tv? through apple tv?

    i have a mac computer and apple tv.. i would like to airplay a video from a website onto my tv but i dont know how to do it.. can someone please help me??

    You need to use mirroring.
    Native use requires a recent Mac (2011 or later) running mountain lion 10.8)
    Older hardware can use 3rd party software like Airparrot

  • How do I Play videos from external hard drive on Apple TV2?  Can I just move the iTunes Library to the External Hard Drive?

    I have several HD videos stored on an external hard drive and would like to bring them into iTunes and play them via iTunes on my Apple TV2, but I am not sure how to go about it.  I don't want to store the movies on my iMac hard drive because it would eat up to much space...so do I just move the iTunes Library to the external hard drive?  And, if so...will the Apple TV2 find the iTunes Library on the external hard drive?  Thanks for any help anyone can suggest.

    iTunes content on an external drive isn't a problem.
    The simplest method is to just move your library to an external drive.
    If you wanted to keep just movies on an external drive, that's a little more difficult. You'd need to put the movies where you want them to reside on the external drive and add drag and drop them onto iTunes while holding down the option key. Obviously any movies already in iTunes would need moving from their current location and removing from iTunes first.

  • How can i play video from another service?

    i have 2 services, fe A and B, and i want to create a player in service A to play a video component. I have tried to put 2 video components in service A but nothing was played.
    in this case the code used was:
    mediaLocator = new MediaLocator("dvb://1.1.1.1");
    player2 = Manager.createPlayer(mediaLocator);
    I tryed it in another way, with "ServiceContextFactory.getInstance().getServiceContexts();"
    but service context array length was 1 (and there's 2 services). I think the problem is that my service/app does'nt have permisions to catch te neighbour service context or video component.
    some one can help me to do this?

    well i found the way!!
    first, i created a player instance from current service. i stopped it, and made a player.deallocate() to later make a player.setSource(). passing a media locator.
