Hulu full-screen plays back choppily when sent to HDTV via Mind-DV to HDMI

Hi, all. I searched discussions for a solution to this to no avail. Thank you in advance for any help!
When I have my MacBook connected to my HDTV via an Mini-DVI to HDMI adapter and try to watch Hulu in full-screen on the HDTV, it drops all kinds of frames and plays back very choppily. When I watch the same program on the MacBook display at full-screen, it plays back fine.
I've tried the Hulu website, as well as the Hulu Desktop app. Both yield the same result (i.e. bad).
I set the HDTV's display settings (via OS X Display Preferences) between 720, 1080i, and 1080p, respectively, to troubleshoot. Neither 1080i or 1080p plays back well at all, but the resolution is nice. When I set it to 720, it plays back a lot smoother, but the resolution is awful.
The MacBook specs are below. Any suggestions or ideas as to why this is happening?

I updated Flash player and set the OS X display settings for the HDTV to 720p, and it is acceptable now.

Hi Mary,
I don't remember those arrows in 10.6, only 10.7 & up!?
I have 10.6.8, as you do. To make your Safari full screen, make sure you have the left hand side of your safari page moved all the way to the left. Then move your cursor to the BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER of the safari page, and simply drag your page towards the lower right hand corner of the screen. NOTE: you will see a series of lines on the bottom right corner of the page, indicating where to place you cursor arrow.

How can I get a full screen on my tv when i am mirroring from my ipad 2

how can I get a full screen on my tv when I am mirroring from my ipad 2?

You woul dprobably need to choose a zoom display mode on the TV.
Any screem shots / promos for mirroring I've seen have been 4:3 ratio like the iPad screen resolution.
To me this would be an obvious source of frustration to users of 16:9 TVs - unless there's an ipad 2 mode to somehow run in 16:9 not using the whole screen or not displaying the edges for mirroring, AppleTV2 may not be able to fill the screen

When FT is full screen, camera goes off when swiping to a different app

When FT is full screen, camera goes off when swipping to a different app or the desktop. This is frustrating to the other person. We were having a discussion and I said I wouls look it up and when I swipped to Safari, the camera went off. It makes the other person think the connection has been lost. Anywhere to report issues like this to Apple?

In reading other threads, I found a few that recommend a hard reset to solve the issue. I have tried it, and thus far haven't expereienced the problem again. Hopefully that's it then

Since upgrading the IOS 8 on my IPad 2 I can longer get a full screen on my TV when connected with an HDMI cable. anything I should change in my settings? Right now my iPad is mirrored on the TV with a black box all around the edge

I have reached the same conclusion in the mean time. I have done a bit of investgation in to other grahics cards and am seeing some that show SPDIF connections from the card to the mother board. I was not familar with SPDIF but it did a little bit of sluething. It is of course a digitally enconded voice. I am guessing that in that case the mother board ( assuming it supports this hardware option) would use this output and be able to translate that digital audio to its other audio outputs. That is a lot of guessing of course. I think my "solution" might be a whole new desktop - a rather drastic course of action! I was in the proceess of getting ready to upgrade this machine anyway with a new graphics card (which I will now return), go to Win 7, and maybe even a new digital TV reciever, and I don't want to throw good money after bad anyway.
Thanks for your comments

Laptop screen plays back jumpy video, CRT looks fine

I have a strange problem:
When I play back video from FCP (6.0.6) in either the canvas or the viewer and the window is entirely on my laptop screen, it looks jumpy, sort of like if the playback frame rate was set to dynamic. If the window is even partially (like 10%) on the CRT, the playback is fine. The jumpiness goes away if I set the playback quality to Medium.
I have been editing with this setup for a year or so and only recently noticed this. I've recently upgraded to Snow Leopard, but FCP is still 6.0.6. Is this a Snow Leopard / FCP version problem? It seems odd that it would only exist on my laptop's LCD screen and not my CRT.
System Details:
I have a 2.6 Ghz Macbook pro with 2gb of ram. The DVI out is connected to an old LaCie Electron Blue 22" CRT. I typically edit with both screens, usully putting the canvas on the laptop screen and the viewer on the CRT. My playback framerate is set to full and video quality set to high. My capture scratch drive is an OWC Mercury Elite Pro set up as a RAID 0 and connected via Firewire 800. My sequence setting is ProRes 422 1440x1080 and the footage was shot with a Canon XH A1. Some was captured as ProRes and some as HDV, but the problem happens with both kinds of footage.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
- Bruce

I suppose that makes sense. I do wonder, though, why it would have this weird behavior where it only does it if the entire window is on the laptop screen. If just a little sliver of it is on the CRT, then it's fine. Also, why would it prioritize the performance of the second display over its main display?
Is there any way to boost the graphics card performance? Would more RAM take some of the pressure off the graphics card, or are the tasks strictly separate?

DPS Animation & Full Screen Video functionality failure when viewing mag in Adobe Content Viewer

HI There,
Specifically the following issues are occuring when we view the mag through the Adobe Content Viewer on our Ipad.
All Title animations are not functioning at all (although in the SWF viewer they are working fine)
Although we select the media to be played full screen when we are setting up the videos in the media panel they won't play full screen, but play perfectly well in the place we put them. - full screen doesnt function in the SWF viewer either.
The control bars to control playing, stopping, full screen etc also don't appear on our videos we selected. - doesn't function in the SWF viewer like it should with the control bars working
In terms of how we set everything up just to confirm we are doing it right.
For animations.
1. Select copy to animate
2. Click on Animations panel, chose the preset fade in, selected the time 1.25seconds, animate from current appearance, fade in.
For videos
Our videos are H264 Quicktime videos all 16x9 in ratio
1. Went to media panel.
2. Searched for file to insert
3. Inserted it and sized down the actual physical size of the video to fit in the space we wanted (NB we didn't create a rectangle to put them in or anything)
4. Chose the poster from file
5. Selected skin over play full screen & show controller over rollover
Any help to sort this out would be appreciated. Thanks so much in advance

Hi BellaMove:
For the animations:
You have to create a document with the size of the animation you want to create and give attributes using the animation panel of indesign.
Then you export to fla and using Adobe Wallaby pass it to HTML5.
Then place them by the panel Overlay Creator (Web Content). Using the Content Viewer can not see it on your desktop. You'll have to climb the publication in the ipad to see the result.
Do not forget to retouch the css. Read this:
http://digitalpublishing.tumblr.com/post/3898796141/animate-headlines-or-other-things
Is the simplest way to make simple animations I've found.
I hope you find it helps

Video shocks in full screen & freeze of finder when coping

Hi,
The last few weeks a have two problems with my "new" mac book pro (reatina).
1. When I play video's online (youtube or other provider) the play normaly in small screen but start shocking/flashin in full screen mode. It is not a preformance issue, i check the activity log, their is no heavy load active. I have the problem in Safari and in chrome and with multiple video platforms.
2. The other problem is that my finder completely freezes when i copy large files from my hard drive to a USB stick op my time capsule networkdisk. Finder will continue coping but i can not do anything in finder, i only get the "beachball" and have to wait till it is complete.
Anyone tips how to fix this?

It is possible that the white dot problem could be related to one of the sensors on the camera. The sensor(s), some cameras have one and some have three, record the information for the pixel. I know of one case where the videographer was videoing ballet dancers with a black background and noted a few white dots and that was the problem. If over time it repeats and maybe some more start to show up then that could be the cause.
The camera failure could be caused due to heat or doing a lot of recording with the gain turned up.
I'm not saying that is the problem, only that it is one possibility. Why it "disappeared" the way it did is puzzling.

How to change full screen button back?

After upgrading to Yosemite the window green button primary click now brings the window into fullscreen, I find this very annoying.
I frequently want to make a window bigger but have access to other windows too. Going fullscreen accidentally and having to go back, waiting for both animations to complete really messes up my workflow.
I know alt-click does the old behaviour, but this requires 2 hands, and doing fullscreen purposely is something I do so rarely that it should really be the alt-click action for me.
Also I know double clicking the background works too, but only in Apple apps (Safari, Terminal, Finder etc). This doesn't work on 3rd party apps, leading to a disjointed experience.
Does anybody know how to get the old behaviour back? I really hope these full screen commands become an option in Preferences.
Thanks for any help

Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

Full screen photo from contacts when answering a c...

Hi all,
Is there any settings in the phone to achieve this? In nokia 5800 when you receive a phone call, the photo of your contact appears in full screen, but in the N97 appears in half the screen cutting the photo of your contact. That´s strange, because when you edit a photo there's the option to crop it in order to use it as an image for a contact, and the size is full screen.

you can download full screen caller apps here you go

Firefox mac osx version does not support mac-Lion os full screen window mode. When will you bring this?

In macbook pro with lion os apple gives a full-screen-mode icon in the top right corner of the window, which will be used to open that view in different window. But firefox does not support this. Even chrome supports it.
When will you bring this feature to firefox?. Currently I am in firefox 8.0.1

No answers, but Mozilla is aware of the new release of Lion, and hopefully are working on solving some of the known issues. There are some rather formal technical discussions and reports, as mentioned in this contributors thread: [/forums/contributors/707160]

Why does the screen turn back on when the brightness is turned down?

Hi,
I bought a macbook pro (Mac OS X 10.6.8), and just recently last week when i turn the brightness down to black, after a couple minutes later the screen turns back on. Then when i touch the trackpad then it goes back to black. Is there any way where i can change this setting??? because this didn't happen before and now it just constantly occurs.

Why does my mac mini automatically restart when I shut down?
Seems that some process is calling it back.
If I shut down via the log in screen it turn's off. What gives?
Probably a process in your account and not systemwide.
Go to System Preferences >> Accounts >> Login Items, and remove them. BShutdown and test. If not go to ~(yourHome)/Library/Contextual Menu Items and move whatever is there to the desktop. Test.
EDIT: Also, unmount & disconnect all peripherals except Apple keyboard & mouse.

How do I get a full screen canvas back

I'm a 20 year user -- today I lost 90 percent of my canvas - an inaccurate way of saying the screen on which the canvas sits is 1.5" wide and 22 " tall.
The little thingy that one clicks on and holding down the mouse to drag it to full screen is not viaable.
Shrinking the image I'm working on just shinks the image not the page.
The image I'm working with is 3.75" x 2.25" standard biz card.
Tried every trick I know to get my screen to behave - after 4 hours I have to plead for help or go crazy.
This happened in the middle of a normal procedure--saving to the desktop.
Any ideas?

Boy oh boy do I feel like an idiot. Green resize button did the trick.
Good Lord - talk about how to feel dumb and stuppid all at the same time .
Thank you very much Gene and thanks to you Chris for suggesting the screen shot .
