Quicktime 7.4 / Safari streaming issue

Ever since upgrading to Quicktime 7.1.2 and Safari 2.0.4 web pages that I've created with streaming qt clips (from a streaming server) no longer stream (though the pages themselves load). The pages work fine in IE and Firefox, and they even work fine from any Mac with QT 6 and the older version of Safari.
Any help? I've done the old moving the qt plugin bit, and deleting preferences. And deleting the plist. Seems some sort of incompatibility in the coding that used to work when designing in Dreamweaver and working with QT 6. Again, the clips play fine in IE and Firefox, so it doesn't seem to be a QT 6 v. QT 7 issue, but something about Safari.

Sorry. I wasn't aware the page code was you own.
The .tif files should be converted to .jpg and then saved (via QuickTime Pro) as .mov files. They become the "poster" movie for your object and embed tags. Changing them to .mov should shrink there size to about 20KB's.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61011 Info about these tags.
http://developer.apple.com/internet/ieembedprep.html
New changes required for Internet Explorer and these same tags.

One of my pages that uses this new javascript page code. Mine targets the QuickTime Player instead of the browser (target="quicktimeplayer" versus target="myself). View the page source to see this new format. I use the external .js file in the <head> tag.
A "virgin" PC (no QuickTime installed) using Internet Explorer couldn't view your files.
A least you seem to have sorted out the streaming error. I saw a Stouffers box.
Replacing the .tif files with .jpg saved as .mov files will trim 900KB's from the load time of your page. It will also help with the href lined streaming files.
Proper (more modern) html code will allow you more visitors.

  • Since upgrading to Lion, I cannot play QuickTime videos in Safari 5.1.1, not even on Apple's own website?

    Upgraded to Lion and now I cannot watch QuickTime videos in Safari 5.1.  Did not have this problem in Snow Leopard.  QuickTime videos do play in Firefox.  I cannot even play QuickTime videos on Apple's own website.  Any suggestions?  I'm using a Macbook Core 2 Duo.

    Hi Sami,
    I have partially solved my problem.  I had software installed for a Twelve South BassJump (it improves the sound of your laptop speakers).  When I removed that software, I was able to play videos on Apple's website in Safari.  The company has beta software available from their website that is supposed to be Lion compatible but when I installed that the problem returned.  But even with that software removed I still cannot watch videos on some sites such as Other World Computing.
    I just got a new Macbook Pro yesterday with Lion installed from Apple and all video plays fine.  So I believe there must be some compatibilty issues with some plug-in.  I have Perian and Flip4Mac installed.  I removed 3ivx and the problem still remains.  I've read conflicting opinions as to Perian being Lion compatible.
    Everything works fine in Firefox at this point so at least I have that to fall back on.
    Check your system preference pane under "other" and tell me if you have any of the plug-ins I mentioned installed.  Maybe we will be able to see a common culprit.
    Let's keep each other posted.
    Thanks,
    Chris in Ohio (USA)

  • Viewing quicktime movies in Safari

    What are the specifications for viewing quicktime movies in safari? I've tried several different sites, most without luck. One very useful site (http://mac.sillydog.org/qt/compare.php) has several different QT formats posted. I was surprised to find out that I could not view the H.264 format, but that I could view the MPEG-4 (basic) and MPEG-4 (Improved) formats (these are the last 2 examples on the page). Also, does anyone know if it is possible to view any streaming quicktime video from within Safari? TIA
    -peter-

    Update: No it is not possible to stream quicktime video to ipod touch or iPhone at this time. Only Audio streams are supported.
    I don't know the exact specifications off hand, although I know for definate that Apple's trailer site now redirects you to a iPhone-friendly version when browsed from either iPod touch or iPhone.
    Maybe you could look into what spec the videos are encoded there? - Hopefully you can, I'd also be able to upload video in ipod touch compatible format(s).

  • YouTube streaming issues

    Is anyone else having YouTube streaming issues? I can only get about 5-10 seconds of video to play. Then if I try to restart the video it doesn't play at all. It's been this way for a couple of days now. It doesn't matter which wifi network I'm on either. I read the videos are going through an Apple proxy server so I wonder if the server is having issues since it used to work just fine.
    I have a new 8GB 3g touch with about 1.5 GB of free space. All other Internet apps work fine.

    Dan

    Restored and setup as a brand new iPad - same issue.
    Likely the app itself,
    Other apps such as twitch.tv / Air video HD etc stream without issue (even with the screen auto locking
    I'll bring this up with Google.

  • Quicktime Crashes in Safari Every Time!

    Within the last couple of months, Quicktime crashes in Safari once the full file loads. Whether it's audio, like a podcast, or video, like a movie trailer, once it's done loading, Safari quits out. This happens every time I do this and it is extremely frustrating. Any ideas? From time-to-time iTunes will also crash when I load video.
    Any ideas?

    What troubleshooting methods have you tried to resolve your issue?
    Need this info to avoid the +"been there, done that"+ scenarios.
    Tried any of the following?
    Repairing permissions from your HD & restarting and/or from your Tiger DVD
    To fix a QT related problem w/Safari, quit Safari & look in the /Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder (this is the Library folder at the root level of your HD, not the one inside your Users/user name folder).
    Try removing the VLC Plugin.plugin (if you have it) & *QuickTime Plugin.webplugin files from this folder, & then relaunch Safari. If the problem isn’t fixed, a different plug-in may be to blame. Keep removing files from this folder (start with any third-party plug-ins that are present) until the problem disappears.
    Replace the plug-ins that don’t cause any problems.

    =======================
    Rosetta
    If you have an Intel-based Mac, running Safari in Rosetta can also resolve some QT plug-in issues.
    First quit the app if it’s open & then, in your Applications folder, select Safari & press Command+I.
    In the General area of the Safari Info dialog that appears (click the disclosure triangle if this area is not already expanded), select Open Using Rosetta, & then close the Safari Info dialog.
    Relaunch Safari.
    If none of the above works, please provide the following info: Which QT version are you using?
    Which Safari version are you using?

  • Quicktime problem in Safari

    I am having a problem with viewing Quicktime movies in Safari. When I try to download I get a window saying that there is missing software that us unavailable from Quicktime, and a torn Quicktime icon appears in the play window. I think I must have a damaged or missing plugin or something. What are my options?

    Hi John
    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    YouTube is Flash oriented. Sometimes the Flash settings in Quicktime are active, which blocks Adobe's Flash player from functioning properly creating the ? syndrome.
    Go to your System Preferences>Quicktime>Advanced panel. Enable Flash ought to be checked. Then, click on the Mime Settings button. Make sure nothing is selected in the Miscellaneous panel.
    As you use an Intel machine, files using Windows Media Player will not play natively, as Microsoft no longer supports this player on the Mac platform. The alternative is to use the Flip4Mac plug-in. This converts the WMV file to a Quicktime format.
    Once installed, a Flip4Mac preference panel will appear in System Preferences. Select it. In the Internet Plug-in panel, the 1st and 3rd boxes ought to be checked. In the Movies panel, the 1st box is checked.

  • Major streaming issue!

    Hey Guys,
    I am having major streaming issues with my Macbook and Apple TV. Here is a detailed overview of my setup.
    Netgear 802.11G Router
    SSID off
    WEP 128 Bit hex key
    DHCP
    Wireless devices
    Powerbook G4
    Macbook
    Apple TV
    iPod Touch
    XP laptop
    Wired device
    XP desktop
    All these devices are able to access the wireless network fine - and have no problem connecting to the internet.
    Apple TV is running SW 2.0 - I don't know if the same issue would have occurred in SW 1.0 as I did the SW upgrade on it straight away (getting close to a system reset though)
    I am able to see the Apple TV in iTunes 7.6 and have all the details of my Apple TV.
    When I try to play any of "my movies" I sometimes get an error saying can't recognize file type or something along those lines - or it just gets stuck on a black screen with the buffering "spinning gear" winding till the Apple TV goes in to the screen saver.
    I tried on many different resolutions but it did not fix the issue.
    The same thing happens with TV Shows and Podcasts - haven't tried YouTube just yet.
    I am able to play movie trailers though both standard definition and high definition.
    Another thing to mention is the load up of the Apple TV is very jittering and stutters.
    The thing that makes me wonder is I ran it on another Netgear G router network earlier today and everything went fine - and I was able to playback videos that I am not able to do now - which kind of makes me look at the network - but the fact that HD trailers load almost instantly and play fine makes me think perhaps Apple TV? The fact it doesn't load smoothly concerns me.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I just removed Apple TV from iTunes and cleared an connections in "Computer" tab of Apple TV and reset everything - still the same issue.
    Apple TV loads very jittery and it doesn't load video files to playback - but it does playback music and movie trailers. I am guessing it has no problems with the trailers as that is not something that gets accessed via the Macbook. Really starting to think this could be a bandwidth issue know, just weird that it was all hunky dory on another G network! Besides all my laptops get full reception where the Apple TV is situated and I can't think of any interference in the position that it is in.
    Any other ideas people - don't want to have to shell out for a base station just right now.

  • IS07 Car Music Bluetooth Streaming Issue - Help Needed

    I drive an Audi A1 which I have owned from new 11 months ago. I updated my iPhone 5 to the IS 7.0.4 around 1 month ago and since doing that I now have streaming issues in my car. The connection is via bluetooth, and the music is streamed from my iPhone, however since the update the music cuts out, skips and pauses............
    I took the car to a service centre today where it was confirmed a known issue within the Audi network.
    So how do we go around this? What do I need in order to stream music without the interference? I am pretty sure Apple wouldn't want to pay my car invoice for the added extras that I purchased in order for me to enjoy my music so surely there must be a way around this?
    Any advice is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,

    This is not about law, it's about software/hardware. But since you're bringing it up, when Siri was introduced for the iPhone 4s, there was a man in a car using siri with his apple earplugs. I searched for law about this in my country (Netherlands) and it's not forbidden.
    Now back to my issue: I want to use a headphone to listen to music and I want to make a call through bluetooth. Iphone doesn't remember I was listening to the music through the headphone. Issue, right?

  • Safari ios7 issues on iPad Air - can't open new tabs - + sign closes app

    Safari ios7 issues on iPad Air - can't open new tabs or view other tabs.
    The + sign just closes the app every single time!
    In some cases, the back and forward buttons don't work.
    It's driving me crazy becuase if the webpage I'm on opens and ad or tab that I don't want to look at, I can't close it and go back, I have to retype the web address in and find where I was on the site!

    I, too, tried all the fixes...nothing worked.
    Found another thread on this forum and looks like a lot of us are having same problem.
    Next time it happens, go to SETTINGS/GENERAL/ABOUT and check to see it there is a "low memory" incident report.
    If there is:
    See the discussion thread "iPad Air Low Memory Crashes".
    Seems to be common....this could turn into a HUGH issue.

  • Watching Quicktime videos through Safari

    I recently noticed that I am unable to play Quicktime videos through Safari on my iPod Touch 1st Generation. I first noticed this when I wanted to watch the new iMac video on Apple's site. I also tried to watch the newest Apple ad on the site. I was able to watch older ads on the site. Keep in mind I am not referring to Flash videos, I know they don't play. These are actual Quicktime videos (the ones on Apple's site which are not Flash). Any ideas?

    It doesn't play on my iPod either. I have a feeling that the videos are not formatted for the iPod touch - wrong screen size, etc. Apple doesn't have a mobile site like many manufacturers so much of what you see is not optimized for the little screens.

  • ITunes & iRadio streaming issues, why?

    Hello from Miami,
    All this week I have been experianceing issues with either my iTunes Store giving me iTunes store errors windows along with the iRadio player acting up also. I have contacted apple support to clear caches along with anything else that needs clearing out. Well tonight the issues returned, I have to make an educated guess and say it's not at my end.
    Has anyone else experianced similar issues, update me.
    Thank you

    I was the originator of my post the other night.. "iTunes & iRadio Streaming issues, Why?" posted on October 19th. It is that another person chimed in on my topic, paulie74".
    I do not feel I was lectured, I was simply stating how you treated this other apple user, "paulie74" by stating the following. You said,
    "Also ranting about quality control will not help your cause, I use both and have absolutely no issues as do millions of others."
    Being positive and not being unhelpful is not what these forums are about, then you also mentioned,
    "perhaps you should read the Terms of Use you agreed to", I know the terms of these forums and those of the Apple company, I am not new to Apple, and would respectfully suggest that you be more constructive regarding your comments and not expresses yourself in a way that upsets others.
    And yes, I will forward all this onto Apple, for I trust they will do what's right as always.
    Thank you,
    Mohegan

  • Streaming issues MacBook Air -- Apple TV ?

    Hello everybody.
    Does or did anyone of you eperience the same streaming issue with an macbook air mid 12 and an apple tv3?
    Only streaming from this device, any other will work proper (such as iPhone4 , iPad 2, etc.).
    The issue is:
    - streaming aborted
    - after 30-45 mins of video streaming - video only
    - apple tv not reachable
    - apple tv has no internet connection / content, etc
    - macbook gets very hot in the top left corner (wifi module?)
    - no airplay, mirroring etc. works any more with the mentioned device
    - only restar of apple tv helps
    Both devices are connected via the same WIFI/router. Network type (5GHz or what ever) is unknown due to the fact that I've forgotten my  router password. I thought this is where I am probably able to check some things... (I am soving my password stuff right now with my provider).
    so...any ideas?
    forum search and google-it did not work (for me). open to any suggestions.
    many thanks in advance :-)

    Hey mathezmichal,
    Congratulations on the purchase of your Apple TV.  The resources below will help you troubleshoot the issue you are having AirPlay, specifically streaming video from the MacBook Air.   Since YouTube is one of the channels on the Apple TV, I would suggest accessing the videos directly for that particular service.
