Problems getting video when streaming to IMac then to apple tv.

I want to stream a video onto my IMac and send to apple tv.  I can get sound but no video.  Any answers?

Hi Jonathon
Air Video allows you to stream all media formats (avi etc) from your iMac via your iPad to Apple tv. Therefore there is no need to convert your movies to mp4 format so that can stream from iTunes to Apple tv.
Any thoughts on how to get Air Video to work or reconfigure Apple TV 2 to stream all video formats from iTunes and not just mp4??
Cheers

    You need to create a user account for your wife (or yourself depending on who has the current user account). When syncing, each of you should sign in as a separate user, login to iTunes and then sync. I had this problem when my sister got an iPhone. When we did her initial sync, everything on my iPhone showed up on hers. Apple gave me this solution.

    If you are within 14 days of purchase you can still return the iPhone and get the phone that suits your needs, however, I think you will find that no matter which phone you get the content provider will want to know how you are going to pay for future purchases. For Android phones it is Google, and they will certainly want to know.

    iTunes Match is available now. You can sign up from your computer and then, on your Apple TV, you can turn iTunes Match on to listen to your iCloud library from the Apple TV.

  • FLVPlayback audio but no video when streaming

    I have a flash program that loads an external flv dynamically. I first create an empty movie clip then I attach an instance of the FLVPlayback component using Moviclip.attachMovie();. Then i control the FLVPlayback component with AS2. I have a play and pause button, a scrubber, and a loading progress bar.  None of these are components. When I publish and preview the file in Flash CS4, Adobe Flash Player 10, and all my internet browsers everything works fine, all the buttons, the multiple functions of the scrubber, and even the loading progress bar. However when I uploaded all the files from my computer to my company's server and tested it from there, I recieved audio but no video. All of the various controls still worked for the audio but I couldn't see anything on the stage. If I waited for the loading progress bar to complete and then reloaded the external flv then I got video, but the purpose of this program is to stream the video and I cannot have the users waiting for a preloader. Please help me to get my video to show and not just my audio.
    If you want to look at my FLVPlayback code here it is:
    _root.createEmptyMovieClip("lesson_mc",-16381);
    lesson_mc.attachMovie("FLVPlayback","lesson_video",0);
    lesson_mc.lesson_video.contentPath = page.attributes.url;
    lesson_mc.lesson_video.autoSize = true;
    lesson_mc.lesson_video.autoRewind = false;
    lesson_mc.lesson_video.autoPlay = true;
    lesson_mc.lesson_video.bufferTime = 20;

    I don't know what cross-domain issues are, but i had double checked my flv's path/file name and since reading your post have checked it again.
    Heres the thing though, I can still get video, so it can't be these problems. I previously wrote this:

    But I can't get it before it finishes loading. I want to stream it.

  • Apple TV blurry black screen when streaming from iMac?

    My Apple TV shows a black blurry screen when trying to stream from my 2013 iMac.  ATV works perfectly with iPad/iPhone but not iMac.  Audio from iMac is fine, just no video.  Both products are entirely up to date as far as software goes and restarting both + wifi hasn't achieved any results.  Any **** would be appreciated, thanks.

    I've found out it is an Mavericks 10.9.2 and 10.9.3 failure! Online I have found more people with the very same Problem, and all of them are running 10.9.2/3  - ON THEIR IMACS (different Models)!
    My Apple TV and Streaming Services were functioning just fine 2-3 Monts ago, the only thing that changed was Updating my iMac Mid 2011 to 10.9.2 -> Then i've got the black screen when streaming, could not activate DisplayMirroring, when i played something in itunes or VLC the sound went through AppleTV but no video.
    Then have checked it with iPad 2 = OK, iPhone 5 = OK, MBP Early 2008 with SnowLeopard = OK,
    so i decided to Install an 10.9 on an external drive - and guess what? It works! Tried to Update (ComboUpdate) to 10.9.1 and it was still OK, got the BLACK SCREEN after ComboUpdate 10.9.2, and tried to Install 10.9.3 just to see if it will solve the problem -> NOT
    this must be a joke!

  • Problem getting video from firewire camera

    I've written a small app that gets video from camera and
    publishes it through FMS(2). It works well with any USB webcams I
    could find, but I have problems with firewire cameras. I can select
    the camera in Flash settings, and getCamera() returns the
    appropriate Camera object (e.g. it has the correct name, "Microsoft
    DV Camera", which is what's its name in Windows), but I get
    no/blank video.
    Code snippet:
    var myCam:Camera = Camera.getCamera();
    Alert.show("Using " + myCam.name);
    videoDisplay.attachCamera(myCam);
    The same code and the same camera seems to work on OS X. I've
    tried out two different firewire cameras on two different Windows
    (XP) machines, and they consistently didn't work. They do work in
    Flash Media Encoder (I'm not sure if it was written in Flash
    engine), or other programs that do capture in Windows; but my
    problem is that I need to inject metadata (stream.send()) into the
    stream so i can't just use FME :(
    Any ideas why this doesn't work? Do firewire cameras have
    issues with flash/flex (for the reference, I'm using Flex2/Flash9)
    on Windows XP, or am I doing something wrong here?

    HI -
    MPEG Streamclip does not act as a connection device between your camera and Final Cut.
    It is a stand-alone application that converts the files from your camera into files that are useable in Final Cut.
    The reason Final Cut does not "see" your camera directly is that the files are not usable in Final Cut - as recorded by the camera. Those same files are seen and imported in iMovie because iMovie is designed to support a wide variety of consumer formats, and converts them automatically on import to a format the iMovie can use. FCE does not have this feature for .mpg movie files. But the format the iMovie converts to is one that is not optimal for FCE.
    Once you have converted the files that you want to use in MPEG Streamclip, you can store those converted files on your disk drive in a folder. Then open FCE an go to the menu File > Import > Files and navigate to where you have stored your converted files. Select them and the will be imported into FCE.
    It is preferable to import using the MPEG Streamclip method, because the files that iMovie makes, are borderline usable in FCE, and if possible, should be avoided.
    Hope this helps.

  • Choppy (freezing, studdering) mp4 video when streaming on FMS

    Hello everyone,
    I have a question regarding choppy video output from FMS on our streaming project which is running on FMS 4.5 and FMS 5.
    Problems show up when we stream previously recorded mp4 files. The playback is choppy, it works for 2-3 seconds, and then stops for 1 second or so.
    Of course, the same file works when played in FMS or in some other media player, only streaming is problematic.
    We have multiple FMS installations (development / production) and the issue is consistent on all installations.
    I have tried to watch the stream using:
    - our custom player,
    - Wowza media player available at http://www.wowza.com/resources/3.5.0/examples/LiveVideoStreaming/FlashRTMPPlayer/player.ht ml,
    - ffplay
    And the issues are consistent in all three players.

    What do you mean by playing fine with FMS but streaming is problematic? Do you mean you play it fine when directly downloading it from FMS but streaming it from FMS is a problem?

  • Problems with videos when I export

    Hi,
    I have some problems with my videos when I export them. I edit my video, but I have problems with audio in the exported video. Either the audio is missing completely or I hear the audio from another videoframe. I thought that the transitions are the problem, but they're not. Sometimes I have the problem also when I watch the video in iMovie. CAN SOMEONE HELP ME?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions Alek,
    Does this issue happen with more than one project in iMovie or is it just one?
    If the audio is out of sync or missing and it is confined to only one project, the most I can suggest is that you restore from a backup copy as that suggests the project file is corrupted.
    If the issue is happening in multiple projects do a test to make sure iMovie is working correctly:
    Capture 5-10 minutes worth of iSight footage.
    Edit the movie adding a few titles and transitions.
    Export to quicktime.
    Is the audio correct here?
    If the audio is fine that means that iMovie is fine. Something is wrong with the projects or the original footage. You could try taking the Event you are working with, adding it to a new project, and then without editing it, export the entire project out as Quicktime. Then import the resulting file as a new event. The process of exporting (encoding) and then re-importing might clean up minor corruption within the file.
    Hope that helps

  • Problem Capturing Video when using A/D converter

    I'm reasonably new to Final cut, but not a complete novice.
    I have had good success in the past capturing video and also using the log and batch capture feature using a DV tape in my camcorder and having FCP control the camcorder.
    Now I tried something that I have done in my past when I was using imovie 06. I have a VHS tape in my VCR connected to my Mac through my camcorder which acts as an A/D converter.
    The problem is that when I do a log/capture and capture now, I start my VCR and see the video in the viewer but the capture window says that it can't find a timecode and remains black.
    Can someone give me some advise on what I'm doing wrong?
    Thanks,
    Steve

    Thanks for the help.. could you point me in the right direction on where I set this setting? I looked in my Lisa Brenneis FCP6 book and I can't find a 'capture protocol' in the index.
    Thanks,
    Steve.

  • Sound, but no video when streaming a quicktime file through shockwave

    When I stream a quicktime movie in the html file hosted on localhost using the Apache server, I get sound but no video. I saved the quicktime movie as part of my cast, linked to http://localhost/~username/mymovie.mov 
    When I play the quicktime movie itself in my browser, or in a projector, or just within director, the video and sound play simultaneously. But in the browser after converting the dir movie to a dcr and html file, and hosting the dcr and html files on the server, when I open the html file in my browser, only the sound plays. Anyone else encounter similar problems? Any help would be appreciated!

    Hi guys,
    here's some quick notes on how I handle shockwave videos with my projects.
    I tend to find that .swf format videos work best under all browsers using shockwave
    easiest way:
    you can do a standard import of a .swf  video straight into a your cast. (not linked)
    the problem with this is it tends to create a large dcr file for you users to download
    'preloadnetthing' way:
    upload your videos to a url location - something like  www.mywebsite.com/the_programs_title/dsmedia/videos/video1.swf
    (I never use capital letters or spaces)
    file - import - internet - <enter the full url pathname to the file>
    this will add the file to the add list
    set media to : Link to External File (Don't use Standard Import)
    now press Import
    at this point Director will try to connect to your url - and do a trial download of the linked file
    if it works you should now see a new linked video cast member added to your cast
    if it fails - (which mine tend to do half the time?) - try it again until it works.
    Here I normally view the linked videos property inspector - and change its settings - I turn loop off - and make sure preload is not set.
    now comes the code part
    To get your videos to play correctly, you will need to preload them into memory, before you play them.
    (although it's possible to stream videos - I've never been able to get this to work well - there is a whole bunch of lingo code to deal with streaming videos)
    *** a frame script for preloading a swf video ***
    on beginSprite
      floatPrecision = 2
      tellStreamStatus(TRUE)
      global gVideosName
      set TEMP to "http://www.mywebsite.com/my_program/dswmedia/videos/" & gVideosName & ".swf"
      global mynetID
      set mynetID = preloadNetThing(TEMP)
      set the text of cast "preload_results" to "0 %"
    end beginSprite
    on exitFrame
      floatPrecision = 2
      global mynetID
      pStatList = getStreamStatus(mynetID)
      if (pStatList.bytesSoFar > 0) then
        pPercentDone = (pStatList.bytesSoFar * 100) / pStatList.bytesTotal
        if pPercentDone > 99 then go NEXT
      end if
      set the text of cast "preload_results" to ((the string of pPercentDone) & " %")
      go loop
    end exitFrame
    *** a frame script for playing a swf video ***
    on beginSprite
    -- I create a blank 'place holder' cast member (a black filled rectangle) the same size as my video, on to my stage - into sprite 1
      set the visible of sprite 1 to TRUE
      set the puppet of sprite 1 to TRUE
      global gVideosName -- REM the name of my linked video cast member
      set the castNum of sprite 1 to cast gVideoName
      updateStage
      sprite(1).play()
      updateStage
    end beginSprite
    on mouseDown
      sprite(1).stop() -- This stops the SWF movie playing !!!
    end mouseDown
    on keyDown
      sprite(1).stop() -- This stops the SWF movie playing !!!
    end keyDown
    on exitFrame
        if sprite(1).playing = false then
           set the puppet of sprite 1 to FALSE
           go to "somewhere" -- REM somewhere you want to go to after the video have finished.
           abort
        end if
      go loop
    end exitFrame

  • Problem uploading videos when using Cutetube.

    When I try to upload a video, I get the following error message displayed:
    "Error - Server response is:"
    Having tried several times it then said:
    "Error - Server response is: Bad Request"
    Does anyone know what this means or how I can resolve it?
    Also the other day my phone froze and it said something about hildon shutting down. I can't remember the exact message. Could this be the problem?
    Thanks

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    This usually occurs when your iPod is set to manually manage songs and playlists. Try setting your iPod to automatically update. Also, try dragging the videos to the iPod (under Source on the left of iTunes).
