Playing Same Video on Two iPads?

The First iPad is Generation One and the second iPad is a second generation iPad. Now video mirroring is not the answer since I have tried AirView and Airserveer but the video only plays on ONE iPad at a time.
Basically, i would like to mimic a dual screen DVD player. Is that even possible? I've been scouring for apps for about 24 hours now and have finally resorted to coming to the community. Please advise.
I know the "easy" answer is to put the video on both iPads and give the kids the earphones and let them enjoy themselves. Only issue is right now is that the kids are uncomfortable with earphones (they are 6 and 4) but both want to watch the same video on their own iPads.

So, you want to stream exactly the same video? There aren't players with exact synching capabilities and, given that the OS doesn't support local streaming on the API level, it's not easy to quickly code one either. Therefore, I can't quickly code one myself (I've written several players but for local playback only).
However, such a player (synching the exact second it starts playing so that video is played back absolutely in parallel) can definitely be written. Just ask someone to write a player or enhance his existing, streaming-capable one with synching capabilities over, say (I'd ersonally use it), GameKit.
BTW, if you need automatic synchronization AND you aren't afraid of putting the same video on the two iPads (as I've stated, programming streaming - as opposed to local playback - isn't that easy), feel free to tell me and I quickly code a synchronizing player. Then, all you need to do is ask a friend with an iOS developer account to deploy the app on your iPads and you're set.

How to play same game between two ipads, how to play same game between two ipads

I am trying to play multiplayer with another friend on Tiger Woods PGA 2012 via wifi. Can anyone help me make this happen. We can get it to where it searches for open games and how to create a game but cant link them together.

I meant to press on "This solved my question"... Sorry if you needed the points.
Thank-you and I will just go back and forth between the accounts.

Was able to bluetooth one time to play scrabble on our two iPad 1's, but have not been able to do so again. Both are searchable, but are not able to find each other. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

Both need to be in the lobby, and searchable at the same time. Also, if either has been paired with a keyboard or headphone since you played, go into settings, and make sure those devices are unpaired, and not interfering with the process.

When I try to play a video on my iPad that I purchased from iTunes, I keep getting a message saying I do not have permission to access the requested resource...why?

I experinced this when I tried to watch a YouTube video. What I did was restart the iPad and it should work. If it does not work, try doing hard reset, by holding the home and wake/sleep button, ignore the red slider, until the apple logo appears.

Cannot play Facebook videos on my ipad 3 - My family can on theirs????

Hi Guys,
I cannot play Facebook videos on my ipad 3 but my husband and kids can on their ipad 3's while we are all sitting next to each.
Get a loading message then its says An error occurred while processing your request Reference #50.c5fe3d17.1354202551.5533ac2d
Your help would be very much appreciated
Kind regards
Jo

Try a rest: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the iPad shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, turn the iPad back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.

Send videos between two iPads without service?

Can you set something up, like a local network, so that you can send videos between two iPads without cell service or an internet connection?

Unfortunately no.

What is the workaround to play facebook videos on my iPad without Flash?

I get frustrated everytime I take my iPad out with me and people want to see videos I've posted (or others have posted) on facebook. Of course the warning comes up saying I need to install "Flash." Well, we know that won't work. Does anyone know another way to play facebook videos? If this can't be done - EASILY, I'm afraid the current iPad will also be my last. This is a showstopper issue.

What is confusing Meg is the fact that I have a bunch of Architectural Engineers that think they can do everything on a Tablet.
With dozens of them floundering between PC's and Macs all with their own tablet (BYOD). I have to keep everyone with the flow of production. And I have my own projects to complete. It gets where I would like to do away with all PC's when Microsoft releases IE 11 on Windows 7 and then everyone is complaining about "Facebook doesn't play video's".
That I can deal with by locking them down because I have beeen doing PC CADD management for over 30+ years.
Why the "Powers that be" let the nimnod goofballs that really don't get their work done is beyound my comprehension.
It is bad enough dealing with Microsoft because Apple to me is so easy, because it just works. Linix on a few dedicated miniservers and Windows Servers with Exchange is OK because I can assign rights and control that segment of the Architects, Engineers and CADD Personel.
But when I am supporting iPads, iPhones, Android devices, yes it gets confusing and I am fixing to set a policy of if it doesn't work then they are they assigned the lowest piroity as work needs to get done.
Only a few good A/E people that do surveys on-site do I even take care of. The rest are playing on facebook as I have restricted the use of it on our company Network, Intranet and Internet.
Too much for one person to do with over 40 employees that can really be done.
I am responable for the UNIX boxes that run our highend CAD software as well as the renderings, animations & Plotting, 2D & 3D.
We produce all that for the clients to drool over, usually at a meeting out of the house and on a iPad. Those are owned by the company I work for and I never have real issues with them as I check them out and don't let them go home with anyone but a principle of the Firm.
Anyway, thank you for straightning me out and your kind words will not be forgotten.
Peace & God Bless... ~ Kent ~

How to play 1280p video (.mkv) in ipad

i copied a 1280p .mkv file from itunes to ipad. The video player in ipad could not play it. I installed oplayerhd lite. But I couldn't figure out how to play it.

If your 3rd party player will play this file type, you load the video directly into the app's file library using the iTunes app on your computer.
1. Connect the iPad to the computer
2. Open iTunes on the computer
3. Choose the iPad in the Devices list
4. Choose the Apps pane
5. Scroll down to File Sharing
6. Choose your 3rd party video app in the list
7. Click the Add button and then browse to where the video is stored on your computer
8. Click Open and the file will be transfered to the iPad
You should now find that the video is in the video app's library.

How can I play QuickTime videos on an iPad?

Is there any way to play 1080p videos on the iPad with Retina Display without watching in full screen?

When I watch 1080p videos from iTunes on my iPad, they are stretched to fit the whole screen (with black borders) even though there aren't enough pixels in the video. This means that the videos are not crisp as one would expect on a retina display, but slightly blurry, as they are not pixel perfect. Is there any way to make the video smaller? Or does anybody know any 3rd-party apps which can do this?

There isn't as far as I can find - I've had a play around and can't find any way.

HT2688 How to play same song of two different computers at the same time

Hi I have turned on Home Sharing. So one computer can play music on another. Is there any way to have one computer play what the other computer is playing at the same time. Other than just starting the same song as close in time as possible on each computer.

create an album of all of the photos you want to order, open the album, select all and order - be sure teh photos are cropped to the print size so unexpected cropping does not occur during the printing process
