"Place video from URL" not working in InDesign CC 9.1

Has anyone come across why an H.264 encoded mp4 file won't embed into InDesign CC, but will in CS6? Last week I upgraded from Indesign 9.0 (where it was working) to Indesign 9.1 (where it no longer works). Specifically, I'm using the "Place video from URL" option.
* I've tried several different servers to host the mp4 file (the servers do work). The mp4 URLs on each server do work in a browser, but not in Indesign CC.
* I've tried placing the mp4 URL in CS6 and that works fine.
* I've tried a coworker's Indesign CC, that didn't work.
* I've tried making a brand new file in Indesign CC, that didn't work.
I'm running InDesign 9.1 on Mac OS 10.8.5. It looks like Indesign 9.1 broke the "Place video from URL" Does anybody have a fix?

Salah, thank you for the suggestion. However, when trying to paste the embed code into the "Place video from URL" field gets the following error, "The URL must start with 'http://' or 'rtmp://' and must end with a valid file extension."
Using the embed code never worked with Indesign--even before I was having the problems with the URL placement.

Launching EAS from URL not working on client machine.

We are on version 11.1.1.4. When I use EAS URL on the server it is working fine. But when I use from a different machine other than the server it is not working, after selecting the "locale country" and clicking launch button it is giving the following error. i checked the java version also and client machine is on 1.6. I also tried on different IE versions. But from the same client machine I am able to connect through the installed version of EAS.
Is something I need to open ports or anything like that. Please let me know your suggestions or comments.

Thanks,

Shiva -- Java version on the server and the client machine is same which is 1.6.0_24.
That is good point about the network. Actually the client and the server are not in the same network but I opened ports on the network router as well as I disabled windows firewall on the server to make sure it is not creating the problem.

Placing a video from URL - Youtube

Youtube converts videos to MPEG-4 H.264 format which is suppose to be supported for the placing a video from url tool in InDesign CS5.5.
Does anyone knwo why this does not work? I nwo that it can be done by creating a flash player, but not interested in the extra work.

You cannot link directly to the video stream on YouTube - the URLs point to an HTML fragment which in turn loads an instance of their player widget, so InDesign doesn't see it as a valid rich media format.
The only legal way to play YT-hosted videos within a non-HTML document is to implement their public API within your own Flash project, and embed the SWF as a rich media object. Joel Geraci wrote a SWF wrapper for use in PDF files which does this.

CS6 - Placing video from url with DPS and folio unsuccessful

I am attempting to place video from a url and when I preview the folio on the iPad the video does not work. The only way I have seen this work is with an interactive PDF. Does DPS not support this feature?
I thought this would work with the fact that it would reduce the size of the folios dramatically without having to embed them. Any help would be appreicated.

No, this isn't supported yet. You need to place the video file or set up a Web Content overlay that points to the video URL.

VBA-script not working in InDesign

Goal: To have text placed from Word formatted in the paragraph styles I like. I receive the text from other authors and they are formatted with standard Word paragraph style formatting.
Two solutions:
Format the text in Word (change paragraph styles) using VBA, place/import it and somehow make sure that InDesign uses the styles I already defined in InDesign, not the way that style is defined in Word. I can't figure out how to do this.
Do the formatting in InDesign, using script. But the VBA-macro does not work in InDesign.
How may I change the code in order to work in InDesign? The code should look for specific paragraph styles and change them or the style of the next paragraph.
Sub stilSkifte()
Selection.GoTo What:=wdGoToPage, Which:=wdGoToNext, Name:="1"
Dim para As Paragraph
For Each para In ActiveDocument.Paragraphs 'søk gjennom hvert enkelt avsnitt i dokumentet
   On Error Resume Next
    'INGEN MELLOMROM og overskriftene
    If para.Range.Style = "Ingen mellomrom" Then
        para.Style = "Normal"
        GoTo SisteLinje 'Gå til linja i koden som heter SisteLinje, = gå til neste avsnitt
    End If
    If para.Range.Style = "Overskrift 1" Then
        para.Style = "Tittel-små"
        GoTo SisteLinje 'Gå til linja i koden som heter SisteLinje, = gå til neste avsnitt
    End If
    If para.Range.Style = "Overskrift 2" Then
        para.Style = "Ingress"
        GoTo SisteLinje 'Gå til linja i koden som heter SisteLinje, = gå til neste avsnitt
    End If
    If para.Range.Style = "Overskrift 3" Then
        para.Style = "mellomtittel"
        GoTo SisteLinje 'Gå til linja i koden som heter SisteLinje, = gå til neste avsnitt
    End If
    'NORMAL til BYLINE
    If para.Range.Style = "Ingress" Then
        If para.Next.Style = "Normal" Then
            para.Next.Style = "byline1"
        End If
           GoTo SisteLinje
    End If
    If para.Range.Style = "byline1" Then
        If para.Next.Style = "Normal" Then
            para.Next.Style = "byline2"
        End If
           GoTo SisteLinje
    End If
   'Hvis avsnittet er i NORMAL og det neste er...
    If para.Range.Style = "Normal" Then
        '...i NORMAL endres dette til NORMAL M INNRYKK
        If para.Next.Style = "Normal" Then
            para.Next.Style = "Normal med innrykk"
        End If
        GoTo SisteLinje
    End If
SisteLinje: Next
End Sub
I apriciate any suggestions!

Thank you Kasyan, but it doesn't work as I expected it to. The InDesign style are somtimes overridden, sometimes not. It seems to have something to do with wether the Word-style is based on another Word-style or not. In addition I have my InDesign styles grouped, and when InDesign upon placing a text doesn't find the style on the top level, it imports the Word-style.
My solution:
Change Word-styles so they are not based upon another style
Running the VBA-code in Word
Placing the text using "Use InDesign style definition" for paragraph and character styles conflicts.
Editing the imported InDesign styles so that they are based upon and equals the original InDesign style in the respective group

Spotlight still not working in inDesign

Why is it that after nearly TWO years the spotlight function in the open dialogue box is still not working in inDesign? Is this some sort of sick joke from the inDesign programmers? Why can it work when in the PASTE dialogue box but not the OPEN dialogue box? I discovered this fault years ago and wrote about it in length but it has yet to be addressed.

Thank you Daniel,
I omitted posting that the Search box in my Systems Preferences Window used to work, so that I do know what to look for: as I type letters the preference panes whose description contains the (partial) word I am typing should be highlighted by an undimmed circle.
Unfortunately, in my case, the behavior I have is that regardless of what I type in the Search box in my Systems Prefernces Window, no icons are ever highlighted. Indeed, I can type the complete name of a preference pane, for example 'bluetooth', and while my entire Systems Preferences Window is dimmed, neither my Bluetooth preference pane icon nor any other preference pane icon is highlighted through the use of an undimmed circle about it.
This failure of the Search box in the Systems Preferences Window has been experienced by other people. For example in this forum, viz:
Reindexed my HD but no Spotlight preference in Preferences
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=876847
Unfortunately the solution posted in the above thread was to manually delete the ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.preferencepanes.cache and ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.preferencepanes.searchindexcache files. And as I posted I've tried not only manually deleting the above two files in terminal.app, but also deleting all of my cache files through the use AppleJack 1.4.3. Neither steps have returned the Search box in my Systems Preferences Window to working order.
Alas, I'm still looking for suggestions...

Video from URL, show controller on poster

Hi,
When you place a Video from URL, it allows you to specify the controller, and whether you want it to appear on rollover. Is there a way to set it so that the controller appears before the movie starts playing, to identify it as a movie clip, similar to the large play button you often see on videos in webpages?
Thanks!

Found that there is a bug, have to go inside the itunes phone menu, and find a playlist, that nobody created. That playlist makes the phone think it has the videos inside, when it doesn't. Have to delete these videos from the list and then you can put videos on the phone again. Really annoying when it happens because it gives no clue of what's going on!

Linotype Decoration Pi will not work with InDesign CS6

Linotype Decoration Pi Font will not work with InDesign CS6. If I buy a new version from the Sdobr store, will it work?

Has the font ever worked in CS6? If not, did it work in a previous version? Did it ever work in any version of ID using your current OS version? I ask the last question because I helped someone on another forum today that had a font that did not survive migration on their Mac. In their case, the font was selectable but the application would crash exporting to PDF or printing.
I'm using a PC. It works here.
It is listed along with the fonts that start with D here.

Video & Voice Chat Not Working With ichat

Thanks & Regards

Hi
Other alternatives based on the amount of info in your post.
Has she set up her Google Name in iChat or is she logged on via the Web Site (Google Mail page) ?
iChat cannot Video to the Google Mail Login page chat option or to the app called GoogleTalk on a PC.
Another thing.
If you login to the GoogleMail Web pages you will get logged out of iChat (GoogleTalk account) to a partial extent which may explain the loss of Video or Audio iCons.
iChat reports in a Text chat window that you have Logged Off.
However you seem to be able to continue the chat - but it separate from the web Page chat - You send from the web page and that chat will get the next response, send from iChat and it gets the next response (I can't remember if the Buddy told me he got two Chat windows at his end)

Installed Premiere Pro CS4 but video display does not work?

I just got my copy of CS$. After installing Premiere I found two things that seem very wrong:
1) video display does not work, not even the little playback viewer next to improted film clips located on the project / sequence window. Audio works fine.
2) the UI is way too slow for my big beefy system.
My pc is a dual boot Vista-32 and XP system with 4GB of memory installed and nvidia geforce 280 graphics board with plenty of GPU power. The CS4 is installed on the Vista-32 partition. My windows XP partition on the same PC with Premiere CS2 works great and real fast.
Any ideas how to solve this CS4 install issue?
Ron

I would like to thank Dan, Hunt, and Haram:
The problem is now very clear to me. The problem only shows up with video footage imported into PP CS4 encoded with "MS Video 1" codec. So this seems to be a bug. The codec is very clearly called out and supported within various menues but video with this codec just will not play in any monitor or preview window. In addition the entire product looks horrible with respect to performance while PP CS4 trys its best to play the video. Audio will start playing after about 30 seconds. And once in awhile part of video shows up at the wrong magnification before blanking out again.
My suggestion to the Adobe team: fix the bug and add some sample footage to the next release so new installations can test their systems with known footage.
My PC is brand new with the following "beefy" components:

Satellite 1800-100: video-out does not work

He,
I just installed windows XP on my old Satellite 1800-100, but now my video-out does not work anymore. So I just downloaded the latest driver, but there's no way I can get it installed. According to Windows the new driver isn't newer, so it won't let me update it. And when i try to unistall the display driver, I have to reboot before it takes effect, and wile rebooting it automaticly installs the standard driver again.
Can anybody help me?
Greets,
Daan

Hi
Do you mean TV- out port or monitor port? As far as I know this unit is preinstalled with WXP Home and all drivers can be also used for WXP Pro.
Did you preinstall your own OS (non recovery image)?

2nd video card does not work

I have a spare Mac Pro here so I decided to remove the video card and put it in the one I'm using. Both machines were purchased in '09 and use the same video card (ATI Radeon HD 2600). The two monitors I have hooked into the original video card work fine but the monitors I hooked into the newly placed video card are not working. Under the About This Mac specs >> PCI cards it shows up and says driver is installed. Is there anything special you need to do to get a second video card to work?
Thanks.

I tried the SMC reset. I removed the card and reseated it. I'm seating it in slot 2 because that's the only other one that is x16. The other slots 3-4 are x4. Still nothing is showing up. When I go to System Preferences >> Displays >> Detect Dispalys nothing happens. The two displays plugged into the original video card work fine but the newly installed on does not show up. Here is what the Mac Info is detecting. Maybe this makes sense to someone. Not sure what MSI is referring to and the second video card is reading as "display" instead of "ATI Radeon HD 2600". Link speed on the second card is half that of the original.

Video Filter does not work.

Hello.
I have been using Final Cut Pro 4 for a while and it worked fine before. But recently, any function of Video Filter does not work. I apply them to the clip, but the image does not show any changes on Canvas.
Is the software's problem?
Thanks in advance.

For a reason unknown to me, FCP's preference files (there's 3 of them) will sometimes become corrupted and need to be trashed. Usually the symptoms are things just not working as they did earlier, or weird issues like the 3 Way Color Corrector looks different than before ... stuff like that.
FCP Rescue is a freeware app (yes, you'll need to download it) that will create a backup set of preferences, thereby retaining all of your settings. Then when (not IF, but when) FCP's preferences become corrupted, you can run FCP Rescue to replace the bad set with a fresh new set.
Otherwise you can delete the files yourself (make sure FCP isn't open at the time) and the next time you launch FCP, it will revert back to the factory settings.
