Playing streaming video

Can you play streaming video or is there the possibilty of an update that will allow you to play streaming video from a web site?

Sorry for not posting the solution guys. Here it is.
Follow the link in the error message we get when we try to watch the sportsline video without the necessary plug-in.

Then scroll to the bottom of the page and you'll see a bunch of links to plug-ins for Mac users. I don't remember which one I clicked on, but I know it was pretty easy to figure out, given the fact that I did. Good luck. I hope this helps.

Safari not playing streaming video

Hi,
For some reason safari 4.3 is not playing streaming video such as that shown on CNN. Also, my Macbook is not playing streaming audio. If any of you folks can help with an answer I'd appreciate the help. I am using 10.61 on both machines.
Thanks
Jack

Look for the "beta" version for Snow Leopard.

New to Quicktime-Please Help-Not Playing Streaming Video

_PLEASE HELP, I AM NEW TO THIS._ I can't see that Quicktime is playing streaming videos. I have the latest version of Quicktime including Perian and every other plug-in I can find. In System Preferences I have tried Automatic and Custom (Port 80) for the Transport Protocol. I have everything checked in the MIME settings. In Safari Preferences I have all the plug-ins enabled. The streaming videos play in Safari, but if I try to open ANY URL in Quicktime, it says URL INVALID. THANK YOU.

I dont believe you can put a youtube link in quicktime itself. An easy way to download them however is to add &fmt=18 for HQ videos or &fmt=22 for HD videos to the end of the youtube url ex http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GRSbC6HAgNE&fmt=18 Then load that page and then in safari click window then activity. Find the one with the largest size (should be the only one in MB) and double click on it. THen it will download to where you set safari to download your files.

Please help me to unable my ipad2 to play stream video from rtr planeta

Please help me to unable my ipad2 to play stream video from rtr planeta . Thank you!

I have no idea what rtr planeta is but if it uses Flash, it won't work very well or at all on an iOS device. If it is Flash, try the Skyfire browser... it is supposed to run some Flash sites. Review it carefully before purchase.

Safari will not play streaming video or audio

Hi everyone,
I have had my iBook for a year and never even tried to take advantage of streaming video or audio b/c I had a dial-up connetion until very recently. Now that I have a high speed connection I would like to watch trailers and listen to music on myspace. I cannot watch trailers at www.apple.com/trailers/ or any video on myspace.com. Nor can I listen to music (I think they are xml files) on myspace.com. I'm currently running on Mac OSX 10.3.9 and Safari 1.3.1. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hi
Well I have the opposite effect here - the video plays fine on my MBP, yet not on my Intel iMac. On the iMac the video panel never appears. Rather tells me it needs Flash.
Safari is the same on both systems (or at least that's what I think). No plugin blocks are present. To test if the Preference files might be causing the problem, On the iMac, I moved to the desktop from the Macromedia folder in ~/Library/Preferences folder the folder inside the SharedObjects folder. Restarted the system/Safari but the video still does not play.
In the past, Layers magazine has not been a problem, however, I haven't viewed one for several months. Given what others have posted, there seems to be an oddity here that is not machine or Safari specific. I'll have to investigate more when I have time tomorrow.
Try the Video from another user account. See if this is system-wide, or just specific to your user account. BTW, video played fine on the iMac in Firefox.

Safari 5 not playing streaming video

I updated to Safari 5 a couple days after it was released. Just today, it has stopped playing streaming content, such as videos from hulu. The only suggestion I found was to change the User Agent to Safari 4.1, but this didn't help. Any suggestions?

Have you tried resetting Safari? If that does not work try creating a new user account and test Safari with the new account. If the new account works it is possible that one of Safari's plist files is corrupt in your main user account.

Safari can't play streamed video properly.

Hello everyone.
The problem I am dealing with deals with any sort of video streamed from the internet from places like youtube. The video will not play UNLESS YOU HAVE THE MOUSE MOVING WITHIN THE VIDEO'S WINDOW. That includes both sound and video. I've tried IE and Firefox and they work without problems. If I need to give for info just leave a post asking what you need.
Thanks in advance, Blake.

Yes. It is kinda a bit of a joke. I believe Apple has to put those videos in HTML5 for it to be viewable on the iPhone. They have been raving about HTML5 all along so it's a bit of a joke that this keynote stream is not available. If you watch their other videos on the site, it's perfectly ok. But to not be able to watch even ONE video from APPLE.COM on an Apple product is embarassing.

Flash player show black screen on playing streaming video.

Hello All,
I'm using Bitgravity live stream in flash AS3.0. The video stream work pecfectly in FP 9. I have recently migrated to Flash CS5. I have published my player in Flash player 10. It provide better rendering and high video quality, almost like HD. But there is some issue while playing video stream in FP 10. I''m using netstream. publish(). method. Some time the Flash player show totaly black screen and but audio still plays. If we press F5 on browser it may come or may not work fine.
Case1: Customer 1 using FP 10 turn off Hardware rendering and black out screen ploblem solved.
Case2: Customer 2 using FP 10 truned on Hardware rendering the Black out screen problem resolved.
I'm confused with the solution that i should provide to my customer, since it is very difficult to debug the error. For the time i have switched back to FP9 + CS4.
How can we determine the issue. ?
Does GPU capability is having some pipeline issue with decoding the incoming H.264 packets.with acc audio? Or the stream have some issue that flash is unable to recognize at first time?
Thanks,
Ajitpal

Sounds like you've got malware alright.
As far as image burning, I ONLY use Roxio Media Creator, or PowerISO to burn images to disk. Nero will do it, but I can't run it with Roxio (conflicts).
You need to do thorough virus scan and cleanup.

Captivate 5 will NOT play streaming video from my Flash Media Server

Recently I have begun attempting to convert older projects to captivate 5. However, once I started loading the videos I quickly realized that they are not playing in captivate 5! I know that these videos stream from the server just fine as I have been running them with other products and I know that the paths are correct because I've been using a web player to test the paths of the videos that will not play. How do I get around the bugs in Captivate and get the video working?

Looking at this issue, here is what I see:
Looking at the source code from the URL you supplied
http://www.uab.edu/smsfiles/video.cgi?OU=CEVS&VIDEO=AD_clip_setup.f4v
Looks to me that the rtmp server has a different name than the one you provided: streamer: ["rtmp://wwwsms.it.uab.edu:1935/CEVS/"]
Is the file truly an FLV or F4V? Looks to me like it is a MP4. [file : "AD_clip_setup.f4v-lo.mp4"]
I think this will still boil down to getting the correct format for the URI.
Just my thoughts.

Can't play streaming video on macbook pro

have been sent a video taken 4 days ago, but when I press on the 'play' icon the screen just goes blank !

Hi
Sorry to hear about that.
When you say "died" you mean there is no video output?
Does your Mac pass POST? (makes chime noise on boot), and does the Capslock key LED go green if you press it? If not, then you may have a power related issue, not video.
Also, what model do you have (year/processor/GPU)
Please try an SMC & PRAM reset.
Cheers

IPad playing streamed videos.

My iPad has stopped playing videos on web sites. Any ideas how I can get it working again? Thanks

Have you tried rebooting the iPad or clearing Safari and restarting?
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

Streaming video and bluetooth stereo

I have the Blackberry Curve with T-Mobile with v4.5.0.81 and the Motorola HT820 stereo bluetooth headset. I am able to listen to regular music and videos on the microsd card on the HT820, but when I play streaming video online there isn't an option to activate the HT820. Is this a limitation of streaming video online, a BB software issue, or a setting I need to change. Thanks!

The curve 8330 handles some streaming formats... With the MobiTV app I'm told you can watch streaming video of various cable channels including news and discovery channels and such. You can also view some video clips from www.youtube.com Not the flash clips of course! As far as streaming audio you can download slacker radio and flycast and have a semblance of streaming audio. I'm hoping for winamp/real audio type support of streaming media very soon to listen to various internet radio stations that aren't included in the aforementioned radio apps. Sidenote: Money rules everything, everywhere

What causes choppy streaming video?

I have a problem with playing streaming video on my powerbook. The video is choppy but the sound is fine. What exactly causes that? I have a 6 Mbps DSL connection at the house, so I figured it was something internal with the Powerbook. Would this be a graphics card, RAM, or processor issue?? I'm not quite sure. Or is it just a matter of changing a setting?

Hi BJ,
Not to state the obvious, but video requires significantly more bandwith than audio.
What app are you using to stream? What is its internet connection speed set at? What speed does the stream show it's streaming at?
