HT204291 can i stream camcorder video from computer to tv

I have Apple TV connected to my tv and internet. I am trying to show camcorder video which is on my computer onto my tv. Have only succeeded in showing stills. What am I doing wrong

iTunes and the Apple TV cannot play AVCHD and it needs converting to a format that they can play.
AVCHD is a recording format it is not optimised for playback which is why it is not supported by the vast majority of devices and not just the Apple TV.
There are a number of software converters you can use, but I'd be inclined to recommend iMovie, which is extremely easy to use and would allow you to do some editing before you export to another format. Of course you can vary the amount of editing you do, you don't have to do any, you can simply cut out the bad bits or go the whole hog by adding titles and the like.

    i have made a few test with Flash Lite 3.0 and Flash Media Server 3  and I have to say that it is pretty easy to stream FLV Video files and  Live Video from local web camera to mobile phone. Here are a quick  instructions how to do it in Windows (I will publish Linux version  later).
    Play FLV-video from Flash Media Server 3:
    Install Flash Media Server 3 (download developer version)
    There are a few sample FLV files in applications/vod/media folder, so you can use one of them for testing
    Create a new Flash Lite 3.0 file in Flash
    Add a new Video symbol to library
    Drag this Video symbol to Stage and give instance name to it: video
    Type following programming to timeline:
    // make a new video-object
    var video:Video;
    // make a new NetConnection-object
    var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
    // check connection status from server
    nc.onStatus = function(info:Object):Void {
      status_txt.text=info.code;
      if (info.code == "NetConnection.Connect.Success") {
        startStreaming();
    // start streaming video to phone
    function startStreaming() {
      ns = new NetStream(nc);
      ns.setBufferTime(5);
      video.attachVideo(ns);
      // play sample.flv from server
      ns.play("sample",0);
    // show info to user
    status_txt.text = "Connecting server...";
    // connect FMS 3 video on demand service (default port 1935)
    nc.connect("rtmp://your.server.ip.here:1935/vod");
    Go to Publish Settings...
    Set Local playback security: Access network only
    Publish your SWF-file
    Send your SWF-file to your phone
    Test and you should see FLV-video playing in your phone
    Play live video from Flash Media Server 3:
    Install Flash Media Server 3 (download developer version)
    Install Flash Media Encoder 2 (Windows only)
    Start Flash Media Encoder 2
    You should see your live camera in Input screen
    Press Start-button to start sending live video to Flash Media Server 3
    Create a new Flash Lite 3.0 file in Flash
    Add Video symbol and programming as you did earlier
    Modify your programming:
    // in startStreaming()-function
    // Flash Media Encoder 2 publish stream name is "livestream"
    ns.play("livestream",-1,-1,true);
    // start connection to Flash Media Server 3
    // Flash Media Encoder 2 publishes Flash Media Server's default
    // live publishing point, so connect it
    nc.connect("rtmp://your.server.ip.here:1935/live");
    Publish, test and enjoy

  • Streaming Digital Video from computer to computer

    Hey all,
    can somebody please give me advice on how to stream DV over firewire from one computer to another?
    I would like to use this for live video manipulation using QuickTime-dependent VJ-applications. I can successfully use a camcorder as DV-input but would like to replace it with a second computer.
    When I try this, the computer is not recognized as video source, although it is setup to output DV through the firewire port (tested with iMovie setting "play video through to camera" and DV output of the arkaos VJ-application ). Both computers are running Mac OS X 10.4.11 and Quicktime 7.4.1

    trying to get a streaming video to work on my computer but can't. Information pops up and says. "MediaPlayer" has content of MIME type "application/x-mplayer2" but i don't have a pluggin installed. any help?

  • Streaming youtube video from my macbook to Apple TV?

    Hello ...
    Can I stream youtube video from my macbook pro (OS X 10.9.2)  to Apple TV? with same HD quality, similar to iPad and iPhone.
    The built-in AirPlay feature is not satisfactory and gives poor video quality.
    There might be some kind of plugins for Safari or Firefox than allow to switch to Apple TV, but I couldn't find any.
    Please help.
    Thanks.

    Thanks Rudegar ...
    Yes! my hardware support AirPlay Mirroring but it doiesn't stream HD quality with no lagging
    I just want something exactly similar to what happens in an ipad/iphone, just one click and the stream would be diverted from my macbook to the apple TV directly from the my internet modem
    Is there such way !!??

    how can i stream media wirelessly from macbook pro mountain lion to dynex bluray player or insignia mhl tv? i also have a time capsule...

    most reliable method found is get an AppleTV hooked to TV, and get program called BEAMER (free trial or $15 purchase application).     Lots of programs CAN stream to TV via wifi, but many of them get audio syncing wrong/bad.   Best addition upgrade to any Apple PC or laptop isnt internal, but the AppleTV     BEAMER app is the best Apple/Mac app out there to me, ...  Ive got 7 Terabytes of Videos, ...the Beamer app takes in any video format, its just incredible.

  • HT4437 Can I play a video from the remote app onto apple tv whilst simultaneously stra,ing music to other speakers via express?

    Can I play a video from the remote app onto apple tv whilst simultaneously stra,ing music to other speakers via express?

    Thank you for that, I wanted to make sure I was trying to replicate the same thing as you. Just tried it now, works fine for me.
    Of note though, this will take a relatively well performing network to achieve this, I have such a network, if your network is not as good as it might be, you might encounter problems.
    For the avoidance of doubt, I used the remote app on my phone to get my iTunes library on my computer to stream music to 3 of my Apple TVs, I then used the remote app to control another Apple TV and get it to stream a music video from my computer to it. Of interest I managed to do this while my wife was using yet another Apple TV (not with the remote app) to watch something else from iTunes on my computer.

    How do I delete photos from my Photo Stream in iCloud?
    Individual photos cannot be deleted from your Photo Stream. You can, however, delete all the photos in your Photo Stream by clicking the Reset Photo Stream button in your account at icloud.com. The Reset Photo Stream button will instantly delete all Photo Stream photos stored in iCloud, but it will not remove any Photo Stream photos that have already been pushed to your devices."

  • Can I stream and sync from the same itunes library to one AppleTV?

    Can I stream and sync from the same itunes library to one AppleTV?

    From what I can tell this is a bug.
    A very Frustrating bug. When the take 2 update launched I was streaming movies via "shared movies" from my synched computer without any issues. However after a couple of recent iTunes updates all the "shared" menus stopped appearing and I can no longer stream anything from my main computer.
    When I open up my macbook though everything streams fine, all the "shared" menus immediately appear.
    Numerous restarts, factory resets and reinstalling the 2.0 software have done nothing to help this issue.
    If anyone has any more light on the subject it'd be great to hear. Also I'm not sure which update broke it because I went about a month not using the apple tv.

  • Can no longer download videos from my digital camera to iPhoto.

    OK people, please help me! I've been a Mac user for a couple of years now but still have no idea how to use it properly!! (having been a PC user all my life). Today I changed the quality on my digital camera (Panasonic Lumix TZ7) to be the lowest quality so I could fit more on my SD card, not feeling the need to read the instructions first. When I came to download to iPhoto, it wouldn't. So resorting to reading my camera instruction book, I needed to download some software that came with the camera which I did. But when I still couldn't download the videos using this software, I read the instruction book more thoroughly and discovered that the software I needed (PhotofunStudio) wasn't compatible with a Mac (PC only) and the software I had downloaded (Arcsoft Panorama maker and Arcsoft MediaImpression) obviously wasn't what I needed. When neither of these would download the video, I deleted the software from my iMac but when I opened iPhoto, it gave me some error messages about files not able to be read (or something similar, I can't quite remember) and a list of file names to which I clicked OK not even thinking about it. What that did was delete all videos from iPhoto I had downloaded from this camera! And now I can't download any videos from my camera to iPhoto!!! The only thing I can think is that it has changed the default download/view to be Arcsoft (even though I've deleted all the files - I think!!) So please, how do I get iPhoto to again download my videos? Sorry for the long winded post but because I am a hopeless Mac user, thought I would give as much info as possible!
    I'm computer literate with PC but definitely not Mac - it scares me as I don't know what I am doing plus it is my OWN machine so don't want to stuff it up (which is exactly what I seem to have done!). I had no trouble previously downloading videos on the higher quality setting to iPhoto. Please can someone help?!

    OK thanks I will try that. I just don't understand why I still can't download new videos as I've deleted the software I installed and I've changed my camera settings back to what they were before when I could download into iPhoto. I perhaps should have mentioned it's iPhoto '08 version 7.1.5. Is there any way of putting iPhoto back as the "default download and view" programme?
    It could be as simple as longer (larger) videos - iPhoto does not always handle larger video files well
    Is there any way of putting iPhoto back as the "default download and view" programme?
    iPhoto is not a download and view program - it is a photo management database program that imports photos - Image Capture is a download program - Preview is a view program
    The default program to download your photos is set in the preference panel of either iPhoto or image capture

  • I can't play certain videos from the internet on my macbook

    I can't play certain videos from the internet on my macbook.
    When using Sarfari or Google Chome, I am unable to play some videos on the internet. News clips, posted videos on blogs, and tv episodes from their own network websites. Youtube videos are fine. I doesn't make sense.
    I tried downloading an update for quicktime, but the computer claims that quicktime is up to date. Yet, the videos and tv episodes don't play.
    I have checked for the most recent software updates, and everything is up to date. Nothing is wrong with the hardware either.
    Any suggestions would be awesome! Thank you!

    In addition to Flash, you might need some other plugins.  Microsoft videos are mostly in Silverlight, and you'll want Flip4Mac to play WMVs.  Perian contains codecs for pretty much every video online.

    I want to use my iPad as a screen for a reversing camera in my van and want to know if this is possible. do i need a bluetooth camera and is there a specific one that will connect to the iPad? Or is there any form of adaptor that I can plug the camera straight into the iPad?

  • How can we transform a video from progressive to interlaced with final cut?

    How can we transform a video from progressive (720x1080 50p) to interlaced (PAL) with final cut pro???????
    The video is taken with Sony EX3

    Hi Nick
    Sorry but your first link says +"The file you are trying to access is temporarily unavailable."+ ... but tell me, are you viewing these interlaced encodes yourself on an interlaced monitor (eg are you burning them to disc and viewing on a TV) as they are meant to be seen, or are you just playing them back from file on your (progressive) computer display?
    By the way, I did manage to download your source file and encoded it here. Looks ok to me ... in a addition to the instruction above, I also changed the Field Dominance in the Encoder > Video Format tab to Top First (it defaulted to progressive due to the progressive source file).
    Let me know if that helps
