  • Playing video from a capture device - Out of memory for video buffers?

    Hello guys, I'm having problems playing video from a video capture device when not using JMStudio. When I use JMStudio, the video plays real time with no problems, but when I use code taken from a java book which is a simple Media Player, I get the following error:
    "Error is Error: Out of memory for video buffers."
    My capture device is working and I don't know why i get this error when trying to watch the video feed from a program other than JMStudio. I also tried different code that has worked in the past with the same exact capture device and I still get the same error. Please help, I have no clue at this point. The code for the simple media player is below, it's taken out of the book "Java: How to Program (4th edition)":
    Thanks in advance, I am very greatful
    Miguel
    device info: vfw:Microsoft WDM Image Capture (Win32):0
    When I type the locator, I am typing vfw://0, I also tried just vfw://
    and I get the same error.

  • Playing videos from within the application using Phonegap.

    I am trying to get videos to play videos from within a PhoneGap app across IOS/Android/WP8 that will play videos contained within the phonegap app.  I have accomplished getting videos on Android and IOS but getting it working on WP8 has left me stumped
    as I have not been able to find anyone even attempting to getting videos to play from within a phonegap application on WP8.   So if anyone knows how to do this, or any suggestions of what direction I should look for a solution (I'm assuming it doesn't
    work as because of how IE treats videos on WP8 and will not load off the device)
    (Yes I know this is probably not the first place to look for solutions,and its not I've been looking elsewhere as well, but there is very few people supporting phone gap on WP8 elsewhere so this seems like the best place to maybe get some help/ideas)

  • How do I play video from my macbook pro to my tv?

    How do I play video from my macbook pro to my tv?

    What model MacBook Pro do you have? On my late 2011, I used to use a Mini DisplayPort/Thunderbolt to HDMI adapter to get video and audio from my Mac to my television. I used this adapter from Monoprice. Worked great - I just no longer use it because I bought a 27" monitor.
    You can also use AirPlay mirroring if you've the right MBP and an Apple TV - but the wired method works, too.

  • Playing videos from iTunes onto a TV from my iPad

    Can I play videos from iTunes onto a TV from my iPad. All I seem to be able to get is the music when I connect via an HDMI cable or wirelessly to apple TV.
    Thanks

    I have sorted now. Play through video app not music. Easy when you know how!!!

  • Playing video from iPad to TV

    I bought the AV cable at the Apple store yesterday and tried it out. I can play
    video from the Video app, the Netflix app, and the YouTube app without a
    problem. But I can't play anything from the ABC app or the Hulu Plus app (the
    free stuff - I'm not subscribed yet) or the HGTV app. I get sound, but no
    picture. Anyone know why? Am I doing something wrong?

    I just tried to watch from the ABC Player on the TV, doesn't work. The app description in the app store doesn't indecate you can watch it on a TV. And there nowhere on the app to switch viewing from the iPad to the TV. So, I would say you can't view this on a TV.

  • How to play video files that are in Drop box on iPod?

    How to play video files that are in Drop box on iPod?

    I am going to have to write a technote about this, because it comes up a lot.
    Flash Player itself is designed to play SWF content as a browser plugin or as an ActiveX control (when it's IE Windows).
    There is a standalone Flash Player, but that's something Adobe  provides directly as a feature of Flash CS4 Professional. It gets installed with Flash. We have made some standalone players available on http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html, but not all (and I don't know why.  Looking into it)
    There are numerous 3rd party standalone SWF players out there though.  Some designed to just play video, others that play full SWF. I suggest a google search of 'play SWF standalone' and read the results.
    On the Mac, consumers who want to play SWF content off their desktop can use the Adobe Media Player. You can import a local SWF (and FLV and other video) and play it in AMP.  Get it here:
    http://www.adobe.com/products/mediaplayer/
    That's Mac only, doesn't work on Windows.

  • I want to use my I Pad mini to play videos from my Gopro Hero HD camera and also to use as a monitor if possible?

    I want to use my I Pad mini to play videos from my Gopro Hero HD camera and also to use as a monitor if possible? What software would i need to use ? I movie is what i use with my I Mac not sure if this will work on I Pad Mini?

    At first I thought that this solved my problem, but alas it didn't. It does appear to add display area for your computer or to suplement it. But it is not a view screen for your Mini. I guess I will just have to live on with my monitor and use my Ipad and the "remote" app to run Itunes.
    Once I have the system all set up, I could use the display but I don't know why I would. Thanks for your help.

  • How do I play videos from an SD_Video card?

    How do I play videos from an SD_Video card?

    Click on the SD card that appears on your desktop until you get to the DCIM folder.  Click on folder until you get to the movie files.  Drag these files onto your desktop.  You can erase the ones on your SD card if you do not want to same them on there.
    Depending on the movie file types you should be able to play them w/either QT 10, QT 7.x or VLC.  It helps to have Perian installed.
    Also, helps if you would advise us which OS is installed on your MBP and which model MBP you have.  Some come w/a built-in SD slot, others you will need a card reader.

  • Play video from memory/cache

    Hi All,
    Is it possible to play video from memory or cache? I trying to build a video player. And I am using NetStream.play(). It can play a local file,  but how can I load the a file into memory first, do some modification, and then play it?
    Thanks a lot!

    If you mean "can I play a video file's video part via AppleTV and the audio part via the Macbook" then the answer is no.
    You could probably play the video on AppleTv and also play it on the Macbook and output the audio, but you would have to do this manually, and 2 applications accessing the same video file might cause stuttering playback issues. Additionally you'd have to manually sync the audio and lip sync problems are annoying at the best of times.
    If you mean "can I watch a video from AppleTV and play separate music via iTunes on the Macbook", then the answer is yes.
