How to play a video

how to play a video ,there is no option to play it

In the account for your wife, preferences > accounts, you would add an app to the list of apps that run at login.  You may be able to add a file to this list, don't know.  You could write a simple script with open name-of-video file.  Possibly as simple as:
#! /bin/bash
# open is equivalent to double clicking on the file.
open name-of-video

  • How to play YouTube videos in HD on iPhone over cellular?

    Does anyone know how to play YouTube videos using the Google YouTube app in HD on the iPhone over cellular? I'm asking because I have an iPhone 5 with a large LTE data plan, which I don't mind using a bit more data for better clearity on the videos. I know in the past people have suggested to use YouTube in the Safari broswer to view videos in HD, but I find it to be non-consistant. Anyone have a better idea how to watch YouTube videos in HD on iPhone/iPad over cellular (3G/LTE)?

    Did you use iAD to create the widget?   If  you did...  then there support  group  should have answers.
    If you used one of the widgets in iBA  - as you have  had no suggestion for a fix... you will need to contact iBooks support.
    The  More Like This column on the right shows links to similar problems.
    It would  seem to be  related to  your  use of  You Tube and Vimeo content or maybe its how you  put the  widget content  together.
    Have  you search the iBA help files, previous posts and the iBA  tips?

  • How to play a video in AIR on a mobile device

    Does anyone have any walkthrough they can share for how to play a video in an mobile AIR app? This would be for a video that's bundled with the air app.
    Thanks!

    Since the video is bundled, I'd recommend you make usage of the GPU accelerated StageVideo class:
    StageVideo - Adobe ActionScript® 3 (AS3 ) API Reference
    On that page you will find several tutorial and code links (under the description) on how to use it, for example:
    Adobe Flash Platform * Using the StageVideo APIs
    Getting started with stage video | Adobe Developer Connection
    The basics about it is if you have ever created a video player using NetStream and NetConnection then you already know how to use it. After the event fires indicating if StageVideo is available you can make use of it or determine if you need a fallback (regular Video with software rendering).
    Unlike just using the FLVPlayback component, you must create and attach your own video controls. Again if you've ever made a custom player with NC/NS classes above then chances are you've made custom controls. Just whichever buttons you desire for your functionality (play/pause, seek, volume, etc).
    It's worth repeating, I'm only recommending this because I choose this method with bundled videos. If you need to stream, NetStream will not give you the information you need for buffering/seeking. In that scenario I resort to using StageWebView on iOS which embeds a native HTML5 MP4 playback control. I actually start receiving the stream to get the metadata (video size) and generate a HTML page with a <video> tag that makes the video an appropriate size. Video in StageWebView does not work well (especially Flash video) on Android prior to KitKat so I avoid that and use StageVideo, which works great.

    Hi,
    You can't do that in a simple way. You need to have a port open in the firewall, and you need to have a server process on the remote machine.

  • How to play 1280p video (.mkv) in ipad

    i copied a 1280p .mkv file from itunes to ipad. The video player in ipad could not play it. I installed oplayerhd lite. But I couldn't figure out how to play it.

    If your 3rd party player will play this file type, you load the video directly into the app's file library using the iTunes app on your computer.
    1. Connect the iPad to the computer
    2. Open iTunes on the computer
    3. Choose the iPad in the Devices list
    4. Choose the Apps pane
    5. Scroll down to File Sharing
    6. Choose your 3rd party video app in the list
    7. Click the Add button and then browse to where the video is stored on your computer
    8. Click Open and the file will be transfered to the iPad
    You should now find that the video is in the video app's library.

  • How to play album video on iPhone

    I accidently stumbled onto a video of an album I was playig on my iPhone. Once I stopped the album playing, I cannotfigure out how to see the video again. It is an album I bought in iTunes that must have had a video somehow attached to the music. Can anyone tell me how to play the cd so the album video shows up? Somehow I did it from the music app of my iPhone. 
    thanks,
    Tony

    The iPhone works differently because it isn't formatted like a hard drive the way the iPod is (conversely, the iPhone works on both Macs and PCs without the need for reformatting, so there are advantages in this approach).
    If you learn to use smart playlists you'll wonder why you ever synced any other way, even for your iPods. Smart lists can do some amazing things.
