Playing videos from websites

I've had no luck trying to play news videos from my local tv websites, using Safari or Firefox. QT won't open them, nor will flip4 mac, windows media player. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? DThank you.

I am talking about the videos that are under the heading
Today's Top 24 Hour News 8 Videos. I've never been able to get them to play. But sometimes on other parts of the site, certain other videos play just fine.
Thanks.

There may be a couple Apps that may help, but I understand they don't work very well. The best solution would be to contact the owners of the websites and let them know they need to update their site.
The alternative I use, is to download the problem video onto my computer, and convert it to M4V or MP4 format using a program like HandBrake <HandBrake>. Then it can be added to iTunes and synced with the iPad.

Is there a fix yet for Firefox so it can play videos on websites with "Hotlink Protection"? It's been 9 years now and still no fix.

How come Firefox still hasn't come up with a fix for it to be able to play videos from websites that have "Hotlink Protection"? The error "Video not found" always comes up. This has been like this for almost 8 or 9 years now. (I'm probaby off by a year or two). Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Opera, Safari, etc... all have no problem whatsoever and can play the videos easily.

Applecare on the phone is torturous, I spent an hour getting redirected back and forth between 3 different departments each saying "This isn't my area, you need to talk X department" or "why did they send you back to me?" Then you get disconnected.
The nearest apple store is about 2 hours away. If I'm near it again, I'll stop by. I was just hoping either the problem was patched or someone online knew how to fix this infamous problem yet.

It's not working here as well with Java 6 U25 on Linux.

None of the quicktime videos from websites play anymore. This started yesterday. Before that I could play them all. Now none of them work. Has anyone had this problem? How did you fix it? Thanks in advance for the help!

Did you try
1, resetting the device
2, deleting all cookies / history items of Safari?

Firefox only can't play videos from Hamster web site

Firefox plays videos from every other site but Hamster. IE and Chrome have no problems playing videos from this site

Hi .
Make sure your OS X software is up to date.
Click the Apple  top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click Software Update.
Or, open System Preferences > App Store > Check Now
If your Mac is up to date, most news websites require Flash.
Back to System Preferences > Flash Player then select the Advanced tab.
Click: Check Now

Play video from any embed code

Is it possible to make a video player in Flash such that it can play videos in any Embed code. I don't think it is possible but would like to confirm...

Embed codes are provided by various websites to play flash videos in their video player. Is it possible to make a custom video player which can play video from any such site?

Screen dimming & going to sleep when watching videos from websites

when clicking on a video from websites or from news readers (eg. Focus or Stern) this doesn’t prevent TP to dim the screen and even go to stand-by/sleep after the time set in the TP configuration. So you have to touch every now and then in order to keep it running.
Post relates to: HP TouchPad (WiFi)

yeah noticed this last night when being v lazy and watching a load of stuff in bed, kept having to tap the screen which would inadvertantly click some element of the app or webpage that launched the vid, could do with the dimmer not kicking in when video of any sort is being played.

Firefox won't play videos from YouTube, Hulu, etc. w/latest Flash version.

Despite following both Firefox and Flash directions, Firefox won't play videos from YouTube, Hulu, etc. They either never load or they load and freeze within seconds. Before I got the latest versions of Firefox and Flash, I did not have this problem. So there must be a problem in one or both of them. Since I understand from various websites that this is a widespread problem, can Firefox fix this? It's a major flaw in the latest Firefox version.

'''If you are running Adblock Plus...'''
While on a YouTube page, right click the ABP icon and "open blockable items".
When the window opens at the bottom of the page, right click this line: http://s.ytimg.com/yt/swfbin/watch_as3-vfl9DouAr.swf (or some variation) , then "Disable Filter".

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.

Can't view photos or stream videos from websites on iPad 3

When I go to a website with safari, I can't stream video or view photo galleries. It tells me that I need adobo flash player. That is not supported for this device. How do I see photoographs or stream video from websites??

Jenpre.... keep your head down in that hurricane, and good luck. I hope it moves away soon for you all.
When I say "more modern", from what I've read many sites recognise that Flash can be a problem on mobile devices (phones and tablets) because it's very power hungry. So, if I understand things correctly, many sites are putting up html5 versions, which is supposed to be much easier on computers / devices. Quite oftne when I go to a site on my iPad it auto-diverts to the "mobile" version of the site, and I haven't found a single case where I can't see a video. To be truthful, even if not directed to a mobile version, I don't have much trouble with any of the sites I visit..... I can see most videos and pretty much all graphics, the same as I can on my Mac, which does run Flash.
Still, I'm sure a computing expert will know much more.
Good luck in that hurricane....
PS... there are quite a few good hurricane tracking Apps you know....

Play video from external HD to Apple TV

I would like to play videos from an external drive to the Apple TV.
The workarounds I've seen all involve moving the entire iTunes library to the external drive. I want to keep all my music on the internal HD but the videos on the external HD.
Suggestions?

Launch iTunes on your computer
Mac - iTunes > Preferences > Advanced
PC - Edit > Preferences > Advanced
Uncheck 'Copy files to iTunes media folder when adding to library'
This will allow you to drag and drop videos from the external drive to iTunes without copying to the internal drive. Once in iTunes you should be able to watch them on your Apple TV
Hope that helps

Ziatron is correct that Flash does not work on an iPad, but it does work on a Mac. See Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.160.
