Problems with motion media

I have a 1.2ghz G4 ibook with 256 built-in RAM. No matter if I have one or 3 applications running, Windows Media Player is choppy and cuts out. So is Shockwave & Flash. Even Quicktime loads choppily. My internet connection is solid, and the problem persists no matter where I am. Sounds like memory, but I am still a little new to Macs and don't know what to do. Do I just not have enough?

You need more ram. OSX likes lots of ram so get as much as you can afford. Minimum recommended is 512mb. You have 1 extra slot and you should be able to expand your ram with an additional 1gb. Check you specs first.

    Problems with Window Media Player. When I am using Windows Media Player to view a video from another source I am having problems. When I hit pause and then go back to hit play it does not have any sound. The player is not on mute and it keeps going from pause to play with no sound most times. Please help. Thank-you. I have Windows Vista programs.

    What can I do to get the Windows Media Player to work properly?

  • Premiere Elements cause problems with Windows Media Center while streaming to TV.

    I was having the following problem:
    The audio from the streaming process of a recorded TV show on my HP computer to the remote receivers, a Sony Blu-ray player and/or a Sony Streaming Player, results in the loss of audio signal at exactly 30 seconds from the beginning on either devices. The video continues on as normal.
    A user on the Windows 7 forum had the following possible cause and solution.  His response was as follows:
    I "solved" my issue, at least partially. Turns out for me a codec installed by Adobe Premiere Elements for audio (Main Concept) was causing mfpmp.exe to fail (you should see it getting an appcrash in the event log two or three times as soon as you start playing the media remotely.) This program is used by microsoft for DRM. I went through and one by one remained the various attached (non-microsoft) modules until i found the one that caused the appcrash. I haven't fully figured out if Elements is now negatively effected, but that's for a different forum.
    I tried the quick fix by un-installing Adobe Premiere Elements.  The uninstall solved my problem with Windows Media Center, but I want to re-install the software but I do not want to recreate the problem with Windows Media Center.
    Is there another solution for this problem?

    I reinstalled Adobe Premiere Elements 10 and the above mention problem reoccured.  With a little detective work I was able to determine that the file causing my problem was "mc_dec_dd_ds.ax".  I am not sure what this does to Adobe Premiere Elements 10 since I removed (renamed) the offending file.  A strange side affect, renaming the file did cause an increase volume. Strange.

  • Compatibility problem with macro media flash active control

    I am getting a message on my screen "compatibility problem with macro media flash active control, it isnt compatible with my version of windows (vista).  How can this be fixed?  why am I suddenly getting it now?  I have the latest Adobe flash player installed.
    Trisha

    the latest flash is probably the problem... it's seems that the latest flash has been causing a boat load of issues. i did a system restore to undo the flash and mozilla upgrades and it's still crashing but not as bad as it was with the upgrades.

  • Problems with Blackberry Media Sync

    I am the owner of a Blackberry Storm 9500 and use BB Desktop Manager v. 5.0.1 and am having problems with Media Sync. I keep getting the message that BB Media Sync has encountered a problem and needs to close.
    Can anyone help?

    Hi Jungleboy6 and tje1976:
    Somehow the default Picture Import folder path has been corrupted in your registry.  We’re trying to get to the bottom of this problem.  If you could give us a little more info, it would be very helpful.
    Here are the steps to follow to fix this issue:
    - Start->run, type ‘regedit’, enter
    - Navigate the tree to this location:  HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Research In Motion\BlackBerry Media Sync\Settings
    - You should see a setting on the right called “PictureImportPath”
    Before you do anything, can you take note of what the current value in the ‘Data’ column is? 
    To fix the problem, double click ‘PictureImportPath’ and change the value data to a valid folder path on your computer.  Ie C:\MediaSyncImportPath
    Hit Ok.  Close Regedit.  Restart the application.
    Let me know if this works.  And if you could let me know the value it was set to and also your Operating System, it would help us track down the underlying problem.
    Thanks.

  • Problem with Windows media player on MAC

    I got a new macbook and installed windows vista. When I wanted to play CDs on windows media player there comes a message"windows media player have aproblem..." and the window closes. I contacted the Microsoft support system and they said that the it is the problem with the mac that the Macbook is not really supporting some of the files and they told me to contact the Apple support and even then they could not solve the problem. I returned the first laptop and got a new Macbook again and even the second macbook has the same problem. Could anmy one tell me why this is happening? If your a Macbook user with windows, did you notice this kind of similar problem? Please do let me know. Thanking you.

    If you have the current version of Microsoft Windows Media Player for Mac installed, there is little you can do. The WMPFM is not kept as current as the Windows version (IMO, I think MS hates Apple - and this is intentional).

  • Problem with Windows Media Player -- saving, transferring

    Operating system:   Windows 7 Home Premium       
    Product: HP Pavilion P6000 Series
    Windows Media Player
    Copy short videos onto a thumbnail drive from a different computer running Windows 7 with Windows Media Player.    Thumbnail drive accepts files, lists and can play back fine on same computer.    Take thumbnail drive to different computer also running/using Windows Media Player & Windows 7, and playback only plays back audio -- no picture.  What am I doing wrong? 

    As WMP is not a DVD player, my suggestion would be to tell your clients to never use WMP.All our DVD discs go out with a warning not to allow WMP to be used.
    In most computer setups, WMP does not play back video correctly as it does not have an MPEG codec installed, or has navigational problems.
    All computers that have a DVD drive fitted, will have a dedicated DVD software player installed, such as Win DVD or Power DVD, so why not use that?

  • Problem with Motion Menus

    I'm using iDVD 6.0.4 and am having a problem with the menu system.
    Everything is fine, and the project is about ready to burn, however whenever I go to add a still picture for the background of the two Chapters selection screens, the Motion Menus time jumps from 4:45/15:00 to over 15:00 by just adding one picture.
    What is causing this, and how do I get it to stop!?
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks...
    Mike

    I had the same problem. Took ages to figure out the problem and the error message does not show up in the manual, though the 15 time limit for 4:3 is mentioned. Does this work better in iDVD08?

  • File sharing problems with my Media Player, an A C Ryan

    I have a media player, an A C Ryan, hooked up to my wifi at home and it normally accesses all my hard disks that is plugged and shared on my iMac. I had no problems when the iMac was on Snow Leopard. Under Network/Workgroup in the AC Ryan's menu, I can see and access all the files on the hard disks.
    The moment I upgraded to Lion, all such access was lost. The AC Ryan cannot connect to the hard disks any more via the wifi network. it's as though file sharing has stopped completely. I checked the file sharing settings on the iMac and nothing has changed i.e. the disks were shared as usual. After struggling with many possible solutions and failing (I checked out a lot of forums), I reintalled Snow Leopard and the problems were immediately solved.
    Is there something seriously wrong with Lion's file-sharing? Has this been fixed in 10.7.2? My friend who has a similar setup (his media player is the WD Live) has exactly the same file sharing problem with Lion.
    I would appreciate any feedback. Thanks!

    I believe that NTFS-3G has issues with Lion.
    I use Paragon NTFS and have had no issues at all. I am pretty sure that NTFS-3G will get updated, but you need to check their site to find out when.

  • Burning DVD problem with DVD media

    Hi,
    Hopefully someone can help me. I bought a Mac Mini and tried now to burn DVDs, with no success.
    I used R- (Bulkpaq 4 X) and also Datawrite (R-, 4X), which I used in the past with my LiteOn external writer.
    Unfortunate, both DVDs are not correctly recognized by the drive. Finder, Dragon Burn and Burnz writing to the DVD with 2X (instead of 4X). However this prevents that the dics are readable after burning.
    I’m wondering if this is a drive or media problem and if anyone else had the same problem. If a media problem, than any recommendation what kind of media to use would be helpful.
    yours frank

    To rule out media issues I would recommend that you try either Verbatim or Apple branded media. Unfortunately DVD drives that are designed for laptops, which the mini has, tend to be a bit more finicky with the media you use.

  • Problem with motion tweening in Flash CS4

    Hi !
    I tried to refresh my little flash knowledge -- but I stumbled upon a problem with the new Flash CS4!
    When I try to make different blur or alpha effect on one keyframe I got after making the motion tween -- Flash adjust the other keyframe as well (got the same reaction on both keyframes as if it was the same instance of movie clip -- and not as in old flash; the keyframes created separated or independent instances)
    The only thing working for me is when I move the movie clip out of the stage on the first keyframe -- and it correctly move its position.
    What's wrong?
    Kind Regards
    Maria Olsen

    Hello Maria,
    You sort of answered your own question:)
    "got the same reaction on both keyframes as if it was the same instance of movie clip"
    That is exactly right and is the proper way of looking at new motion tweens. It is one instance of the movieclip for the duration of the tween. It takes awhile to get used to this.
    New motion tweens allow you to set up a a very simple tween initially without keyframing ending values / position. Once you start making changes after the tween is set, you are going to have to get familiar with adding "property keyframes". Property keyframes are displayed with those little diamond icons in the timeline. Poperty keyframes allow you to "lock in" certain specific properties at key points in your animation without affecting other properties. With the old classic keyframes, a keyframe placed mid-tween would create a whole new instance of a symbol with all properties (rotation, scale, alpha etc) set in stone for that point in time. The benefit was that you could easily have all properties tween TO and FROM that keyframe if that's what you wanted. Now you can make adjustments to a symbol mid-tween and only specifically adjust a single property. So you can adjust the alpha of an object mid-tween without interrupting say a rotation that you wanted to happen all the way through.
    If you simply want an object to move left to right and then you decide it should fade in
    CLASSIC TWEEN
    -place symbol on frame 1
    -keyframe frame 10
    -in frame 10 move the symbol to the right
    -add classice tween
    Ok, that works, now add alpha fade in
    -go back to frame 1 and set alpha to 0
    -classice tween automatically adjusts alpha from 0 in frame 1 to 100 in frame 10.
    -done
    MOTION TWEEN
    -place symbol on stage
    -create motion tween
    -playhead jumps to last frame
    -move symbol to the right (no need to f6 / keyframe)
         Flash automatically adds something called a "position" keyframe (notice the little black diamond)
    Ok, that works, now add alpha fade in
    -go to frame 1 and set alpha to 0
    -test movie
    -oops - wrong. As you noted the alpha will stay at 0 throughout the whole tween.
    -you need to additionally go to the last frame and set the alpha back to 100
         -this will automtically create a "color" property keyframe on the last frame
    When just doing this now I noticed something odd as well
    As soon as I do the position change and move the symbol to the right, if I try to add the "color keyframe" on the last frame of the tween, I am not allowed to do so. "color" and "filter" are greyed out. I would prefer to lock the alpha at 100 in the last frame while the playhead is in position before setting it down to 0 in frame 1. Oh well.
    Seems you are forced to
    -go back to the beginning of the tween
    -adjust the alpha
    -then go to the end and manually bring the alpha back up.
    hmm maybe i'm missing something too:)
    the best way to do this would be to have the foresight ahead of time to do the alpha
    -place the symbol
    -alpha 0
    -add motion tween
    -in last frame move the symbol  set alpha to 100 (alpha and position keyframes are automatically set)
    So if you do it right the first time, its easy. If not, well.
    Keep in mind an object will maintain the properties it has set in frame 1 unless a subsequent property keyframe enforces some adjustment.
    If you have have an object that is moving from point a to b to c to d:
    If you alter the alpha at point b, the alpha will tween from point a to b, but will maintain the new alpha to c, to d.
    If you scale the clip by 200% at point, its scale will tween from point a all the way to point d, NOT just from c to d
    To scale from point c to d only, set a "scale" property keyframe at point c (this will lock the objects scale at 100) THEN scale to 200% at point d
    It takes a good deal of practice. I found the hard way that you just can't "wing" it. It isn't very intuitive coming from a classic tween approach.
    These articles really helped me:
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/motion_migration_guide.html
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/learning_guide/animation/
    Take note of the tips on "cntr-clicking" frames and "shift-dragging". You have to really get used to a few keyboard modifiers when editing the timeline.
    Stick around the forums. A lot of good info comes through daily.
