How to stream video from iweb or any other way?

Can anyone help me? Is it possible to use iWeb to create a web site that will allow visitors to play and view m4v files (video clips etc) directly from the web page without the need to download the file first, rather like the BBC iPlayer does (obviously not the download option) but live as it were. I think this may be called streaming.
If not can anyone suggest a way of doing this please?
I am in the UK and my daughter is in Japan for three months and rather than email her 500Mb of home video I thought it would be better for her to view it over the internet.
All suggestions appreciated.
Thanks in advance for any ideas.

Use MP4 rather tha m4v.
Here's some info about website video...

... and examples of various players...

Nowadays its better to use HTML5 playback with an MP4 file with flash fallback for older browsers and Firefox.
Use a poster image and set preload to "none" so that the movie doesn't have to load as the web page is downloading. Never use autoplay.
The VideoJS player is as good as any...

You could also upload the movies to YouTube or, better still, Vimeo....

I've been working with all the sample code I can find,
especially the
FLEX 2.0 samples found in the Adobe documentation, but I'm
having a heck of a time getting any of them to work.
If any one has any working code that streams video from

Thanks

How to stream video from external storage disc using Apple TV

I have a large (1-1/2 TB) library of movies stored on an external hard disc. How do I play these videos on my Apple TV. There is not enough memory on my iMac to move all the movies into iTunes. How can I move my iTunes library (music & video) to the external hard disc?

Hi @Elkayj. In order to play your videos and/or music on your Apple TV, you will need to turn On Home Sharing in iTunes. This will allow you to access your iTunes library on Apple TV, turn on Home Sharing in iTunes on your computer using your iTumes Apple ID.
As for moving your iTunes library to an external drive, you will no to go to iTunes Preferences and select Advanced. There you will see ITunes Media folder location. Click the Change button and select the external drive and directory where you wish to keep your media files. I would suggest you also check "Keep iTunes Media folder organized" and "Copy files to iTunes folder when adding to library".
For more detailed instructions, the following two links may be very helpful to you:

I hope that helps. Good luck!

Playing Videos from iPhoto in any other player than Quicktime

Hi,
is there any way to make iPhoto open video files in anything but Quicktime X. I'd prefer them all starting in VLC.
Setting VLC as the default player for all .MPG files works when selecting the files in Finder, yet iPhoto will still try and start them in Quick Time.
This is very annoying. Has anybody managed to resolve this issue?

Hi Terence,
Well, your answer is certainly to the point!
U SURE??
I hate QT X. I have 7 and it seems to usually default to opening QT movies - except the ones in iPhoto.
What a shame there's no way to set iPhoto to default to using QT 7. But you're saying there's not!
Just confirming nothing's changed in the last 3 weeks!
Thanks . . .

ITunes will not open on my pc. How can I save my iBook files any other way ? .

I tried synch my iPad with another PC with iTunes installed, a message said that my iPad content would be erased.
Is there any way that I can save my iBook content ?.

First make sure all windows update components are installed prior to installing any third party software. Then -
Have you installed Apple Application Support - it is a required framework for iTunes (and Quicktime).
All elements of Apple software work best with Admin usermode installation. New itunes versions should definitley be rebooted prior to first use. if you install Apple software support - make sure you only have the option to notify you of updates pending - this package can install many elements not specific to your requirement and some which may have no use for you whatsoever. However run it at least once before using iTunes as it manages updates to programs already detected as installed.
There are some cases known where, on installation being finished and rebooting - the apple Application support service fails to install in automatic startup mode - this normally occurs when using a normal user account with admin elevation enabled. this is not the same as Admin mode though and will not always guarantee that kernel drivers will be correctly set in the registry for startup. Use Administrator account for Apple installations.
Some Antivirus programs will block installations of kernel drivers (itunes required) by default, or set themto manual start 9the installation is allowed because iunes is the permission set for the installation - the antivirus program will prevent suspicious activity (kernelmode installers) whilst allowing the parent process to complete - if your iTunes installation fails - uninstall, reboot, switch to admin user, suspend your antivirus program, including any system or application running watch it runs if it is an included element - then re-install itunes. When finished, type Services.msc in the Start search box and check that related services are all set to start Automatically. Reboot when finished.
Unless you try to install an x86 on a x64 required program directory this should solve your problem.
Best Regards, Ct

Hi
Currently, iMatch is turned off on my computer, as I do not want to upload any more songs. If I turn it on, will it upload all songs that are currently in my library? Is there another way that deleting them one by one?
You must enable iTunes Match on the new computer. The best way to accomplish what you want to do is to create a new, empty library by launching iTunes while holding down the Option key (Shift on Windows) and choosing "new library." Do not let iTunes scan for new content, but do enable iTunes Match on the empty library. Once the scan is finished you may delete tracks from the cloud. When you are done switch back to the main iTunes library.

You would have to use airplay within iTunes then, unless you want to use 3rd party software (ie Beamer)

How can I stream video from a 2006 MacBook Pro (1,1)

I have a MacBook Pro Intel Core Duo from ~2006 (version 1,1) and I'm trying to figure out how to stream video to my TV. Is there a solution via Apple TV?

Hey rattlesnake,
Thanks for the question. I see that you are running Mac OS X 10.6.8, which is compatible with the latest version of iTunes (11.1.2):
Apple - iTunes - Download iTunes Now
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Once you have installed the latest version of iTunes, you can utilize AirPlay from iTunes to an Apple TV (2nd or 3rd generation):
iTunes: Using AirPlay
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5922
To stream music or videos from your computer to an Apple TV or AirPort Express:
1. Connect your computer and Apple TV to the same Wi-Fi network.
2. Open iTunes.
3. Locate and click the icon to the left of the iTunes LCD window.
4. Select your Apple TV, AirPort Express, or AirPlay-enabled speakers or receivers from the list of available devices that appears and begin playback.
Thanks,
Matt M.

How can I stream video from a P/DVR to my Mac

Hi, How can I stream video from a Motorola dcx3400m P/DVR to my Mac? I have tried a Slingbox but the audio is out of sync witht the TV and it drives those watching on iPads or on the iMac in another room NUTS.
Is it possible to use a TV tuner of some sort. I've looked at the eye TV thing but I live in Canada/USA region and the eye TV products all seem to be for Austrailia or the UK. The one product that might work is a DVR and I don't need to pay for that as I already have one.
HELP!
Jeff

If your Mac has an audio input jack you can connect the output of a cassette machine to it (3.5mm stereo jack required). However many don't, so you will need a USB audio interface - Roland make a range. Alternatively you can buy cassette decks with a built in audio interface.
You will need a program to record and edit the input: Audacity is free and is often bundled with USB-enabled players.

How can i stream video from mac os x 10 using roku to my tv?

how can i stream video from mac os x 10 using roku to my tv?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
OS X can't write in NTFS disks. If you want to write in NTFS drives, you have to use a third-party app like Paragon for NTFS, being this application the best one to write in those disks.
Another option is to format the external disk in FAT32 or exFAT on a PC, so you will be able to read and write in Macs and PCs without having to use third-party apps. Do it on a PC and copy the files of your external drive to the internal disk first

Can't view photos or stream videos from websites on iPad 3

When I go to a website with safari, I can't stream video or view photo galleries. It tells me that I need adobo flash player. That is not supported for this device. How do I see photoographs or stream video from websites??

Jenpre.... keep your head down in that hurricane, and good luck. I hope it moves away soon for you all.
When I say "more modern", from what I've read many sites recognise that Flash can be a problem on mobile devices (phones and tablets) because it's very power hungry. So, if I understand things correctly, many sites are putting up html5 versions, which is supposed to be much easier on computers / devices. Quite oftne when I go to a site on my iPad it auto-diverts to the "mobile" version of the site, and I haven't found a single case where I can't see a video. To be truthful, even if not directed to a mobile version, I don't have much trouble with any of the sites I visit..... I can see most videos and pretty much all graphics, the same as I can on my Mac, which does run Flash.
Still, I'm sure a computing expert will know much more.
Good luck in that hurricane....
PS... there are quite a few good hurricane tracking Apps you know....
