My video not streaming via Skype

Hi, I have an Intel iMac, my friend has a new MacBook. When we Skype, I see him, but he can't see me.
My built in iSight camera does not come on automatically when I call, so I choose Skype>Preferences>Video. Then the green light next to the camera comes on and I see my image. He can't see me at this point (I think that is intended - video does not seem to stream out when the preferences window is open). But when I close the preferences window I believe that my camera should stay ON and my friend should then see my image. What actually happens is that the camera turns off when I close the preferences window - so he still cannot see me.
Any ideas anyone?

Found the answer myself - little blue video icon.

HT1338 why is the video not working with skype on this os

why is the video not working with skype on this os

Try this:
Quit Skype.
Click on the desktop so Finder is active. Hold the option key down and click on Go in the menu bar.
In the drop down, select Library.
Open the Library folder and scroll down to Preferences.
In that folder, there is a file called com.skype.skype.plist. Trash that file.
Now try Skype.

Video Audio will not stream via express

Hi - Using iTunes, I am able to stream music and podcast audio to my Apple Hi-Fi speakers via Airport Express. However, VidoeCast, TV Shows and purchased movies will not stream... am I doing something wrong? Is there a workaround?

Streaming movie audio only is quite different from streaming both audio and video. The problem comes in the prebuffering that's necessary to keep the audio from skipping, which makes the audio lag behind the video. To keep them in sync, the AirTunes protocol would have to be considerably more complex: iTunes would have to be able to advance the video ahead of the audio by a predictable amount to ensure that they don't fall out of sync. I can see Apple's point for not supporting it since the Express is intended as an audio device and was never intended for the audio associated with video.

Upgrade FMS2 - Streaming Server 3.5 - Video not streaming - NetConnection.Connect.Rejected

I have Flash Media Server 2 set up with a simple bandwidth detection application (with serverside code), and a videoplayer application (no serverside code). I have upgraded to Flash Media Streaming Server 3.5 and have managed to successfully get video to stream using the basic examples on the startup screen both locally and from another machine. However, when I try and connect to either the bandwidth detection application, or the videoplayer I get the error message:
NetConnection.Connect.Rejected
[ Server.Reject ] : (_defaultRoot_, _defaultVHost_) : Application (**my appname**/) is not a valid signed application; loading access denied.
I saw another post in this forum saying that for custom applications you need Flash Media Interactive Server instead of Streaming Server. This worries me as I'm quite far down this route now and don't want to tell my boss that actually we need to find another £2k to make this a viable solution! But looking at the credentials of Flash Media Streaming server (http://www.adobe.com/products/flashmediaserver/compare/), it seems to be that what I want to do is viable. At worst I would have thought that only the bandwidth application would be a problem as it has serverside code. But even so, the Streaming Server apparently does have bandwidth detection. How does this work then?
By having the Steaming Server am I somehow tied into Adobe video players if I want to use the streaming capabliities? Am I not able to have my own named application? Or is it simply likely that there is some setting somewhere I have missed which is causing the error.
Any advice would be much appreciated as I'm struggling to get to the root of these answers on my own.

You just need to define handlers specially onBWDone on client side to do Bandwidth detection. Just check example "Bandwidth" in documentation/samples/Bandwidth/Bandwidth.as.
Since you are using VOD, i think you can just pass "true" as second parameter when you make nc.connect call in you client side and VOD application would make call to checkBandwidth and would call onBWDone when it finishes bandwidth detection. Read more about this in Client API documentation in SSLR.pdf and Dev_Guide.pdf.
Also Adobe has come with advanced Bandwidth detection which you can do using client-side Flash Player API's - Please check this link for more info:http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashmediaserver/articles/dynstream_on_demand.html
Also you can NetStreamInfo documentation which should be present in AS3LR (check documentation folder of FMS)

Adobe Flash Player video not streaming correctly (since 10/14/11)

Hello!
I'm a full-time, daily user of Flash Player as I got rid of my TV and started depending on websites to watch live TV streaming, full episodes or videos. I've never had any issues with FP working properly until about midnight, FP video streaming is pausing/buffering every 2-3 seconds. I have already spent hours making sure my notebook (which is 3 weeks old) did not have any software updates, pc performance issues, and also ran full scans for any possible viruses through McAfee and Windows Defender which completed sucessfully. Additional maintenance including uninstalling and reinstalling Adobe FP 11, made sure all browser ad-ons were disabled, disabled automatic software to run at start-up, checked for any "failed" updates in history and fixed (1) failed update in Windows, deleted browsing history and cookies, uninstalled any unimportant software such as Bing, checked memory usage, troubleshoot issues in control panel and disabled display hardware acceleration in adoble FP settings per instructions read in online support. I do pay for IT Service through my ISP which was my last attempt to fix this issue, however, I was hoping to get any advise from you first because I did see that there is a note in your website that Adobe is performing maintenance updates at this time, and I'm hoping this might be the reason afterall. I appriciate your rapid responsse to any advise or help before I continue to diagnose any performance isses further with my IT. Thank you so much!!!!

Windows Defender is not an anti-virus program in the traditional sense, it simply sweeps the hard drive for a limited number of known malware and will not interfere with any other installed anti-virus software such as McAfee.
I seriously doubt that the anti-virus software has anything to do with these Flash Player problems at all, but regardless my advice would be to uninstall McAfee and download Microsoft Security Essentials direct from the Microsoft website - this is a full, free, anti-virus suite which also makes Windows Defender obsolete (it will probably remove Windows Defender for you automatically).
There seems to have been a lot of problems for a lot of people with Flash Player 11, if removing McAfee didn't solve your problem then I would advise uninstalling Flash Player 11 (there is a Flash Player uninstaller available on the Adobe website - http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html) and going back to a previous Flash Player version to see if that cures your problem. I am in the process of doing the same thing myself as since updating to 11 my streaming video has been messed up, I can think of no other explanation than shoddy coding / testing in Flash Player 11. The Flash Player 10.3 installer is available here - http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html#fp10.3 and here - http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html

Video not sending via email

Since upgrading to iOS 6, every time I try to send a video via email nothing happens. I go through the whole process of editing the video to size, sending it from my email account (I've tried sending it to and from multiple accounts), but after hitting the 'email' button - nada. The email never even makes it to my outbox.
This happens whether or not I'm on the Verizon network or on WiFi in my home.
Is anyone else having this issue? Is it a problem with the operating system?

+Why burn with Titanium (which I don't have) if I can burn with either iMovie or iDVD (depending on if I want to snazz it up)?+
Well, Toast has a few other things included which may come in handy and I've just gotten used to using it, but there is no need for it, especially for basic burning. So, yes, you can use iMovie or iDVD.
+As an alternative, can I go to iDVD>File>OneStep DVD From Movie (which I would have dragged to the desktop from the email)and do it that way?+
One-Step DVD is to transfer video directly from a camcorder to burn to a DVD (check iDVD help). I've never used that feature because I tend to do a lot of "snazzing" including customizing the themes, creating intros with several layers of video and live fonts, etc. But there is another possibility: Magic iDVD: "lets you create professional quality DVD with minimal effort" - again, check iDVD help; there are step by step instructions. I haven't used that feature either.
You might want to consider checking out the appropriate forums for both iMovie and iDVD for tips and/or questions - some very knowledgeable people hang out there. You'll find that with a little effort, you can create some really cool movies. And remember that both iMovie and iDVD only accept certain formats, so if you get an error or it won't let you drag it, run it through MPEG Streamclip first.
Edit: As an afterthought, I'm wondering if you will actually be able to get that movie via email - most ISP's impose limits on file size.

Rtmp not connecting, sample video not streaming

I am developing an application in Flash that runs locally and it uses FMS 4.01, locally. I have been using adobe FMS 4.01 for months with no problem. Today I cannot connect to my server and I cannot even play the sample video on the Flash Media Server Start Screen. The sample video for the http plays after I changed the permissions for flash, but rtmp does not play. I have reinstalled the server; 3.5, 4.0 and 4.01, none of them will connect to rtmp. I receive this error on the flash media server start screen that says "the connection timed out". How do I fix this?please help!

Can you just check if your firewall is turned on and blocking 1935? Also are you trying to play RTMP using Start Screen from same machine where FMS is installed or from any other machine?

Experiencing stop and go of utube videos not streaming

I view utube videos on my ipad and the videos are downloading and video view is intermittent

Chances are it's your internet connection. Wifi only transfers data so fast. See if you can pause the video and let it 'catch up' so to speak and then try to watch.

Have AMD & Realtek audio enabled, should I uninstall one? you tube & other video not streaming...

HP 2000 notebook pc windows 8, no error message, I have 2 devices for audio Realtek & AMD, should I uninstall one?

Hi,
No, you shouldn't uninstall either of them.
One is for the notebook speakers (realtek) and one (AMD) is for the HDMI out port which sends video and audio thru the HDMI cable to an HDTV or monitor.

IPAd does not stream video to ATV2 via Airport Extreme

I have a home wireless network based on an Airport Extreme. The network is not connected to the internet but used for streaming media from my MacBook and my IPad to an Apple TV (2nd Gen). The firmware in all components is up to date.
The IPad will not stream video to the ATV, it does stream music. The MacBook streams music & videos.
I can stream video from the IPad to an ATV on another wireless network in another place which uses a Netgear modem router.
Seems to me that there is a problem with the Airport Extreme which allows the MacBook videos through but not those from the IPad. I occasionally get the following message on the IPad "Airplay cannot play video on Apple TV" Apple support have not been able to solve the problem

Have you checked that the software on the AppleTV has been updated to the latest version?

Prior to installing iOS 6 on my iPhone 4, I could stream video and audio via "Air Video" and "Stream to Me" from my PC, to my TV via a HDMI adapter. Now I can only get video and no audio.

I have been able to stream,via wi-fi, TV shows, movies and music from my laptop through a HDMI adapter via my iPhone 4, to my television. I use mainly "Air Video" but also use "Stream to Me", both with the same results. Since the update to iOS6 this is not possible. I can still get video but now no audio. Help me!

I too am having this very problem. I have an iPhone 4S that is less than one year old. Prior to updating my iOS firmware, I was able to record and transfer video to my PC and view it with a variety of programs without any modifications. Since updating the firmware, all videos that have been taken are not viewable on my PC. I can hear the audio associated with the video, but the video is blank. I can transfer the file off my phone using the Windows transfer tool. Then sync the video back to my phone and it works just fine. I tried emailing the video to myself, that did not work. I rebooted my computer, no luck. I reinstalled QuickTime, still isn't working. I can still watch the videos that were made with iOS 5.1.1 but nothing made with iOS 6.
I have been successful with the following procedure: Once the video is transfered from the phone to my PC, I change the extension from .MOV to .MPG and this makes the video viewable with Windows Media Player; however, if the video is shot in a portrait orientation, it displays sideways in WMP as a landscape orientation. I have been able to then run the video through Microsofts MovieMaker program to right the video 90 degrees but the image comes out a little squatty like it's out of scale. In either case, it serves the purpose and I can export it to another .MPG format that I can then run through Sony Vegas and edit as I see fit. While it works, this is a huge hassle and I shouldn't have to do it.
Does anyone know of anything that is working? Are there new codecs somewhere that windows users need to get a hold of?

Not very technical...please help....videos dont stream in new macbook pro

i have just upgraded from a macbook to a macbook pro...which i simply love..and which is acing everything in every way possible...except video streaming on the net...the videos start..buffering..i think thats what its called..so that a 20 minute clip takes 40 to 50 minutes.... is there something that i need to do in the macbook pro...some setting or something that i am missing...coz i didnt have this problem in the macbook....

assuming you are using Safari. my suggestion would be to quickly validate that it isn't your laptop by using another browser like Firefox or Chrome.
if same behavior, i would check to see if your internet connection is ok.
this isn't too hard to do.
Applications>Utilities>Network Utility
Under [Info] tab: check transfer statics and see if you getting getting any errors
Under [Ping] tab: try pinging your target website ex. www.apple.com. make sure don't get packet drop.
if you are getting packet errors or drop packet, it means your network connections are not stable. if you are streaming via Wifi, try doing a direct Ethernet connection to your network device.
I can explain a bit more if these don't make sense... good luck

Trying to stream Amazon Prime Free videos from Ipad via Mirroring to Apple TV

Trying to stream Amazon Prime Free videos from Ipad via Mirroring to Apple TV. Trailer plays fine. Real Movie plays audio only. Some error messahe that HD video can't be played over HDMI cable. I telling ya that 25 foot VGA cable is looking better and better. Apple TV tech the differrence had to be done at the time of encoding

Amazon blocks Airplay in encoding the movie. It's not the HDMI cable, or AppleTV for that matter.
