IPad2 won't play some embedded videos

For some strange reason iPad (iOS6.1) is no longer playing some embedded videos.
The symptoms are, that where the video has been embedded in a Forum post the screen is completely blank.  There is no frame where the video should be, nothing!
The only way I can watch the video is the "quote" the post, copy the link into a browser, either Safari or Chrome and then it plays perfectly.
Has anybody any clue as to why this is happening?
Is it an issue iPad has with the way that the video has been embedded?
Help appreciated.

Hi,
I had the same issue.
After resetting the network settings everything works fine again.
YouTube App and the videos you posted above didn't play.
After resetting, they are playable.
Try it out.
Best regards,
Tolga

  • IOS 6 won't play some embedded videos

    I'm not sure that this issue is unique to the iPad or if it effects all iOS devices.  It seems that some of the embedded videos (that use to work in iOS 5) now return an error that says "The Adobe Flash Player or QuickTime is required for video playback".  It then has links to get either Adobe's Flash or QuickTime.
    Here's a link to a website that has a video that works fine in iOS 6: [url=http://forums.macrumors.com/showpost.php?p=15786581&postcount=11]Video that Plays[/url].  Here is a link to another website with an embedded Youtube video that will not play in iOS 6: [url=http://www.kicentral.com/forums/index.php?/topic/26454-windseeker-ride-malfuncti on-strands-knotts-visitors/page__st__30#entry486035]Video that does not play[/url].  I'll attach a screen shot of the error that I receive on my iPad (which is "The New iPad").
    Does anyone have any suggestions?

  • My Mac won't play some flash videos

    I have the latest versions of Flash, Shockwave and OSX, yet some videos just will not play on my MacBook Pro. The player will load -- but the media will not. Here is an example of a video that will not play.
    http://g4tv.com/videos/38674/James-Cameron-Talks-Avatar-At-Ubisofts-E3-2009-Press-Con/
    The player will load and display "Loading Content" indefinitely. Most flash sites work fine, but the number of sites that do not work seem to be increasing.
    Could this be a conflict with some other program/plug-in that I have installed? It does the same thing in Safari and Firefox, and I even just downloaded Safari 4 and got the same result. Without exception, all the sites I have a problem with work just fine an other MacBook Pro's that are here in the office. I have uninstalled and reinstalled flash and browsers, cleared cache, etc. yet the same thing always results.
    Any thought?  Thanks!!!

    It's working for me, in Safari 3.2 and 4.0, and Firefox - but at about 2 FPS.
    It is possible that you need to reinstall the latest Flash Player to clear some version number issues.

  • V27, 27.1, won't play some YouTube videos. Even in safemode

    I have trouble viewing videos on my default browser, latest Firefox v 27. I think I am not alone in this.
    I do have the latest versions of Flash Player, Real Player, and Javascript is enabled (not java)
    I first found it in videos from my favourite cats site (cheezeburger..) but I have just found it happens with videos from Serif Community Plus. Videos accessed via FP work, even when referred to YouTube (Clicked)
    Videos direct from YouTube work, but not videos from YouTube accessed via cheezburger links.
    These faults happen only in Firefox 27, and videos play OK in Maxthon 3, (Chrome and Opera - last time I checked.) I know you recommend against this but can you tell exactly how to reload the previous version of Firefox, V26 - I had no trouble with that.
    I have tried running FF27 in safe mode, no effect. I do not want to lose the various add ins I use, so I do not want to reset to factory settings.

  • I have three problems with Firefox 3.6.8 that 3.6.9 hasn't fixed: 1) Firefox has stopped responding to any and all javascripts, 2) Firefox won't play any embedded videos, and 3) Firefox won't let me open up new windows.

    Every new link has to be opened in a new tab, or nothing happens. No matter how I try, I can't open more than one window with Firefox. Worst of all, if I surf the Internet for more than an hour, all these problems have a cumulative effect and Firefox simply crashes. I'd uninstall 3.6.9 and reinstall 3.6.6 (which gave me no problems) if I could only figure out how to save and export all my passwords and user IDs first -- that's way too much to have to input again from scratch!!

    Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode?

    You are playing them in the Videos app correct? Music Videos will play the video in the videos app, not in the Music app.

  • Quicktime 7.6.4 won't play h264 encoded videos on my 10.4.11 MacMini

    Hello:
    This is my first post. I read through the forums and this seems to be the correct place to pose my question. If it's not, my apologizes.
    I'm trying to find out why Quicktime 7.6.4 won't play h264-encoded video on my MacMini (G4 PPC). I'm running 10.4.11. I recently installed Perian 1.2.1 and it got some .avi files to play correctly, whereas before there was no sound. But the h264 files still get me a black screen, albeit with sound now. Some h264 files can be played in VLC Media Player (but that's a horrible player compared to Quicktime in my opinion, as it constantly drops frames and eats 100% of my processor time), but VLC even has the black screen problem on some h264 files as well.
    I've also tried MPlayer OSX but that's really an alpha-type development and has a lot of bugs. Many movies it can't even open.
    Sorry for the rambling, but again my question: Is there any way to play h264-encoded video in Quicktime 7.6.4 on my Mac?
    Thanks in advance for your expertise and advice.

    Mr Ram,
    There is a group of Quicktime specialists in Apple.com ⇒ Support ⇒ Discussions ⇒ Quicktime .
    The more data you give us, the easier it is to help us help you to diagnose your problem. Your disk space would be very useful. Contrary to some, I advocate iDefrag to assist VLC and MPlayer, which you were a little hard on.
    GNU/Linux's free offerings
    MPlayer was developed a decade ago, and I prefer it for viewing DVDs (for 'DVD Player') seems too dark. VLC (legally) copies many CRM-protected DVDs of yours, so you can play only the burned copy. When I'm having a problem playing a DVD, the VLC log tells me all: only perfect DVDs play well on VLC.
    There are two ways of viewing everything.
    Streaming MPEG-4
    +H.264/MPEG-4 AVC+ is a fancy codec based upon MPEG-4: it requires a powerful processor to de-compress it. I watched an MPEG-4 movie from a G3 iBook in 2005. It played flawlessly.
    Your Problem
    Quicktime 7.X applications can not play +H.264/MPEG-4 AVC+ streams. It was a bug Apple never fixed. Frames are dropped because H.264 is so slow that it requires special hardware. You, I'm sad to say, don't have it.
    To quote the Wikipedia on Quicktime: 'QuickTime 7 lacks support for H.264's Sample Aspect Ratio .[67] QuickTime X does not have this limitation; many Apple products (such as iTunes and Apple TV) still use the older QuickTime 7 engine.'
    My Quicktime Pro on a PPC PowerBook is 7.6.4. You can either use a Linux transplant or upgrade to Quicktime X. Those more familiar with Macs may have better ideas for you.
    My best,
    Bruce

  • Problem playing some .wmv video clips in my C7..

    Hello dear friends;
    I just bought my new Nokia C7 mobile, everything is fantastic, i like this delightful device.. it has great many new features..  but i couldn't play some .wmv video clips.
    I'm just wondering if there is a good media player need to install in mobile for playing this kind of format video clips.
    thanks..     

    I don't know if CorePlayer has released a version for the C7 but this worked very good.
    Another option is to connect the phone to PC and use Windows Media Center or WMP11 or later to SYNC the video to the C7 this should convert the video before tranferring and may solve the problem.
    Otherwise you may need to convert the video from WMV to MPEG-4 or other format that's supported by the C7.
    640K Should be enough for everybody

  • Gstreamer fails to play *some* .mp4 videos

    Gstreamer is no longer able to play *some* .mp4 videos. Just until recently
    (possibly update) that worked fine for me. I will appretiate any help with resolving this problem.
    Videos concerning were downloaded from Youtube via the Firefox DownloadHelper,
    so I suspect some of them to use some non-standard format feature. Also
    ffmpeg-ing videos to other or same format works and converted videos can be
    played by Gstreamer without problems.
    This is the only download video I was able to confirm Gstreamer can still play:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T0UbcngpDkk
    It fails for almost every other, e.g.:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h0ffIJ7ZO4U

  • Stop auto download and play of embedded video

    How do I stop automatic download and play of embedded video on a website in Safari
    Please help
    Bruce

    There is a preference setting in ClickToFlash (2.8.5) that will change default from autoplay to preload for html5 videos (Safari preferences, then select ClickToFlash, and click the checkbox to access settings for ClickToFlash, then go to the Media Player tab).  That seemed to fix the problem. This should be built into Safari but apparently is not.

    What error messages are you getting? The videos are likely created with Flash, or another plug-in, which can't be played on the iPad.

  • After updating to Flash version 11.6.602.171 - can no longer play any embedded videos..and worse

    To begin with, I'm running a clean AMD 64 Bit Windows 7 System.  Never any problems with any of my video playing scenarios - until now - with this version 11.6.602.171.
    After downloading and installing both versions - both for Firefox (other browsers) and IE, none of my browsers can play videos unless they are at their lowest resolution of 240.
    So I used the Adobe Flash Uninstaller and ensured that the last vestages of Flash Player were removed - and reinstalled - all to no avail.
    Then I downloaded the archived version of 10.3 to see if a previous version would work.  But that wouldn't work either.  None of my browsers will play videos now and I'm talking:
    IE 10
    Firefox 19.01
    Avant Browser
    Google Chrome
    Google Chromium
    Commodo Dragon
    Commodo Ice Dragon
    Opera
    Waterfox
    Pale Moon
    None will play the video.
    What you get is the video screen but unless you have a 240 option (lowest resolution), all you get is a green screen.  You hear the talking/music, but there is no picture and all the green screen does is flash.  Here's a JPG of the screen.  If you put your cursor anywhere on the progress meter (arrow) it will show you a small image of what's supposed to be playing (see below), but the screen remains green and flashes while playing.
    Now here is where it gets interesting.  When I completely uninstall Adobe Flash Player and then go to a You Tube embedded video (on any site), there first appears a screen that tells you that you need a plug-in - but then within seconds (without downloading anything), the movie starts playing normally.
    I then checked my Firewall (Zone Alarm) - turned it off temporarily - that wasn't the problem.  Then checked my latest version of Avast AntiVirus software and temporarily turned it off - that was not the problem either.  The videos still won't work and remain green unless you use the lowest resolution.
    So this new version 11.6.602.171 has become a nightmare - but I'm afraid it messed up my system big time and I don't know what to do to alleviate this.
    Crying HELP!!!!!!!!!!   Is there something I'm overlooking.  I'm now screwed - way to go Adobe for releasing such a faulty software product.

    Sometimes video and audio problems are caused at a lower level and not directly related to Flash Player.  I recommend trying both of the links below to see how they perform.  If the problem exists with both, then Flash Player is most likely not the culprit as the HTML5 video link does not use Flash Player when playing.  You can verify the use of HTML5 by right clicking the HTML5 video and looking for the words "About HTML5" at the bottom of the context menu.

    @mem2013 - The Flash Player update service will not impact Flash Player's performance.  This is a separate service that runs for just an instant on your system once an hour (if you have automatic updates enabled.)  Changing it from manual to automatic shouldn't make any difference.

  • DVD Player won't play some DVDs

    My DVD Player won't play certain DVDs. Presumably all commercial DVDs should be playable in the software. Fox discs are a problem. I can get Player to turn on, but after the menu, the screen flashes a reading error, from which it could not recover. Yesterday I tried to play a Paramount disc, and nothing happened. The computer didn't even acknowledge that there was a disc in the tray. A Wolfe Video wouldn't read at first (I got a dialogue box that the disc was blank) but I put it in again and that time it played.
    Also, on a side note, I would like future editions of DVD Player to add the feature of allowing the viewer the ability to go backwards a frame at a time, as well as forwards.

    Hi, Doug.
    This is starting to sound like a different problem. Your original report seemed to apply only to specific DVDs. Now it's with all DVDs. Before we get into how to reinstall DVD player, let's try a few other things that are more likely troublemakers with DVD Player.
    1. As a general check, run the procedure specified in my "Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption" FAQ. Perform the steps therein in the order specified.
    2. Reset DVD Player. Peform all of the following steps before attempting to launch DVD Player again:2.1. Trash the com.apple.DVDPlayer.plist file in your Home > Library > Preferences folder. This file is the preferences file for DVD Player.
    2.2. Using Get Info, make sure you are the Owner and have Access of Read & Write on the following folders on your account:• Home > Library > Application Support.
    • Home > Library > Application Support > DVD Player.
    • Home > Library > Application Support > DVD Player > Settings.If not, correct the permissions accordingly using the Owner and Access pop-up menus in the Details sub-panel of the Ownership & Permissions panel of the folders' Get Info windows.
    2.3. Trash the contents of your Home > Library > Application Support > DVD Player > Settings folder.3. If none of the above sorts it out, let's see what Console can tell us: After the problem occurs, make note of the time, then immediately check the ends of these Console logs for clues that may have been logged when the problem occurred.
    4. Note that none of the above rules out the possibility that your optical drive has become defective.4.1. Can you burn DVDs, e.g. even data DVDs from Finder?
    4.2. See if the freeware VLC Media Player (nee VideoLan Client) can play the DVDs.Good luck!
