Screen capture tablet hp stream 8

how do i do a screen capture? vol- & windows ket does not work

Hey @Faengelm ,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand you're looking for information on taking screenshots with the Stream 8 tablet.
The shortcut you listed for Windows tablets does not work on the Stream 8. To take screenshots of desktop apps you will need to use the Snipping Tool. You can find this by searching Snipping Tool in the start screen.
If you want to share a screenshot of an app you can use the screenshot feature by swiping in from the right, selecting Share, and changing the dropdown at the top right corner to Screenshot and then selecting how to share the screenshot. Choices here are limited, and personally I use Mail to share a .png image by sending it to myself so that I can do what I need with the screenshot.
Hopefully that helps.
Please click the "Kudos, Thumbs Up" at the bottom of this post if you want to say "Thanks" for helping!
Please click "Accept as Solution" if you feel my post solved your issue, it will help others find the solution.

Screen Capture with FMLE?

How do I use Flash Medial Live Encoder to do a screen capture during live streaming?

You'll want to ask in the forum for Flash Media Live Encoder

Question about live streaming screen capture

Hi,
at my office we conduct live video broadcasts using widows media encoder, and we're working on moving away from it to a newer method, which most likely will be something flash related.
how the procedure is done today is that a user logs in the windows media encoder program, starts the broadcast, the broadcast starts building an asf file in the server people watch, our users get the link and they join. once the broadcast is finished, the host that did the broadcast exits and saves the file, in the video server. the broadcast is a screen capture presentation of what a host has in his computer.
I want to achieve this or something similar, using a broadcast on flash streaming, so that both, users can log to a link we provide to them, the video server saves the file (preferably as .flv) and of course the broadcast is done nice and smoothly without interruptions or gaps (or at least with a minimum amount).
my question would be,
what process do you guys use to broadcast ? say other members. I'm talking about a simultanous broadcast for about 200 people, I guess it's similar to the numbers that you handle.
I'm pretty wide open on slight modifications on the process, such as maybe the host of the broadcast, saving the broadcast file in his computer and uploading it into the video server afterwards, although I would pprefer of course if it's pushed directly.
resources that I have available:
we have a windows media server -the one we're using right now, and we also have an adobe flash media server, with full license. we have a flash encoder but so far we haven't been able to figure out how to maintain a screencapture broadcast. it works, but only for about 2 minutes and then the player stops reproduction of the broadcast, however the encoding still goes on.
so, while you can answer my request, if you can talk about your broadcasting experience, on broadcasting screen capture...
I am open to all recommendations and suggestions, and I am thankful to all your responses.

Screen capture and streaming it

how can i capture the screen and send it on a network.the transfer has to be in real time.will using robot class and then sending the buffered image be in real time
plz help

if you are using unix, you can the "xwd" command...
you can also search the forum for screen captures with the robot class, i'm pretty sure there are plenty of topic on that

What Screen capture programs work well for streaming?

i have tried a recommended program called ManyCam and it works.. i can stream and in HD. my issues are with the lack of audio options with this program.
For example. i want to be able to have a game running.. music through WMP and have mic available on a PTT.
With Many cam it seems like this software wasnt set up with streaming in mind as its only audio functions supported are for mic inputs and it will
NOT register music playing through the speakers.
unlike AFMLE open brodcaster has the option to select a mic and play audio to the stream that is playing through my default audio device. which is awesome except its lacking in other features. and it is still using manycam.
So... how can i get AFLME to register my default audio device through manycam..
or... what other capture programs are supported by AFMLE (ive tried searching but i keep getting webcam results and posts on how to capture other peoples streaming content.. lol.. frustrating

Hi, I am new to flash media encoder. I have ManyCam on my mac, however, when I downloaded flash media encoder 3.2 I could not get it to recognize my manycam. Can you tell me what to do?

Capturing multiple video streams into a movie file

I am using QTKit to capture 3 media streams simultaneously: audio, video, and display (display is screen capture), and would like to capture them in a time-synchronized fashion to a single .mov file.
I have been able to successfully capture these three streams to 2 separate .mov files by using 2 QTCaptureSessions (one for audio/video, one for display video), but the problem here is that the 2 files are not time-synchronized (I have no idea how to synch them after the fact).
The more intuitively correct thing to do is to use a single QTCaptureSession instance with 3 inputs (2 video inputs and one audio) to do the capture, which should automatically synch all the streams. Furthermore, since the .mov file can support an arbitary number of streams, I figured wiring up the QTCaptureSession to output to a single .mov file would be easy. I was wrong.
The problem is that even though my QTCaptureSession has 3 nice input connections (2 video and 1 audio), when I wire up a QTCaptureMovieFileOutput to it, the resulting QTCaptureMovieFileOutput object has ONLY 2 connections: a single video and a single audio.
Here is snippets of what I am doing:
// add audio input: (type of media is QTMediaTypeAudio), succeeds
[qtSession addInput:[QTCaptureDeviceInput deviceInputWithDevice: qtAudioDevice] error:&qtError]
// add video input: (type of media is QTMediaTypeVideo), succeeds
[qtSession addInput:[QTCaptureDeviceInput deviceInputWithDevice: qtVideoDevice] error:&qtError]
// add display input: (type of media is QTMediaTypeVideo), succeeds
[qtSession addInput:[QTCaptureDeviceInput deviceInputWithDevice: qtDisplayDevice] error:&qtError]
// create file output
QTCaptureMovieFileOutput * qtFile = [[QTCaptureMovieFileOutput alloc] init];
[qtSession addOutput:qtFile error:&qtError];
// PROBLEM: if I look at this array of connections, it has ONLY 2 connections
// 1 video, 1 audio!!!
NSArray *connections = [qtFile connections];
// start capture running
[qtSession startRunning];
// wire up to my file
[qtFileOutput recordToOutputFileURL:[NSURL fileURLWithPath:outputFileName]];
I desperately need help....my questions:
1. Since QTCaptureSession supports arbitary inputs, and QTMovie supports arbitrary # of streams, I can't believe it's not possible for me to simply "hook" all the inputs of QTCap to output connections that will write to streams in one movie file. Clearly, QTCaptureMovieFileOutput is not doing this...can anyone tell me how to do this? This can't be hard, right?
2. If I have to fall back on the ridiculous approach of capturing 2 unsynchronized .mov files and somehow synching them after the fact, can anyone provide a pointer on how to do that?
Thanks VERY much!
Steve

Advice on compressing screen capture movies for web ?

Hello everyone,
I just am curious about what is the best way to go for compressing screen captures so that they maintain the best clarity for text. I've gone back and forth between MP4 (improved) and quicktime movies set to h.264... I am just curious what the general opinion here of what is best to use? It seems that MP4 improved produces larger files with less quality... Also it was a little confusing to see that compressor's h264 option is for "apple devices" or "dvd studio pro" and thus doesn't offer streaming as an option as it does with mp4-- so the only way to properly produce h264 files for web is to use the quicktime option and select h264 as it's compression type? Is this correct?
-patrick

What is the frame size of your source clip, and what frame size have you chosen for your output?
Exactly what settings have you tried so far? Please share some details
I would recommend using the Apple > Other Workflows > Web > Download > QuickTime 7 compatible > H.264 LAN as a starting point.
Set a frame size (i.e. 1280x800, 1024x768 or 768x480, if you have a widescreen computer display) and adjust the video bitrate accordingly. The frame size you choose, should be divisible by 16, 8 or 4, for best quality. Have a look at this article for more info on that: http://www.flashsupport.com/books/fvst/files/tools/video_sizes.html
For more info about H.246 and macroblocks, have a look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H.264
For more details on getting the most out of H.264, have a look at the Apple tutorial Creating Amazing Video Content with H.264.
1. Find the frame size you would like to end up with
2. Adjust the video bitrate accordingly (set the keyframe interval to automatic)
3. Enable Frame Controls in the Inspector window, and set the Resize Filter to Better or Best (gives you much better quality on downscaling, than without frame controls - do a test and see for your self)
An other good tip, is to set an in/out point in the Preview window in Compressor, with a duration of maybe about 10 secs. That way you do not need to encode the whole clip just to test your settings. Add multiple settings, before you submit the batch. When it is done, see which one you think looks the best compared to file size.

Lion, Quicktime Screen-capture, and Photoshop

I've used Quicktime's screen capture tool to create Photoshop video guides in the past and it's produced really high quality, high fps results in a small file. However, since I've upgraded to OS X Lion, my entire computer is brought to its knees during a Photoshop recording session. As soon as I hit record, boom - Photoshop becomes really choppy and it's almost impossible to create a decent video.
Could anyone else here with Lion do a quick test to see if you get the same results? Just open up a Photoshop file, open Quicktime, go to New / New Screen Recording, and see if you're able to use Photoshop without any performance drop.
I'm running CS5 on a dual quad-core mac pro with 12 gigs of ram. It's about 3 years old, but I shouldn't be running into a performance hit like this.
Any feedback on your own experience or tests would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Under OS X "Lion," every screen capture tool I have (Snapz Pro X, Screenflow, Layers, iShowU HD Pro) will no longer capture a DVD frame—if the DVD is being played by Apple's DVD Player. The resulting screen cap shows a "transparent" window. VLC still works in that regard. I've also noticed that the iTunes app no longer has a free-floating video window, which was always my preference. Videos now show within the boundaries of the iTunes window, or full-frame. One more note on Apple DVD Player is that invoking full-frame playback will slide in a new "space" with a background similar to that seen on iPads or behind the Desktop Widgets.
I realize capturing DVDs is not what you're trying to do, but all of the above indicates a complete change to the way OS X handles any streamed video. I have yet to make a test, but I suspect that output-to-NTSC through monitor ports may also be inhibited for certain things; Apple may be plugging the "analog hole" with software. My guess is that whatever background routines are responsible for this may be sufficient to slow the frame rate of your tutorial captures—in the same way that heightened security at airports now significantly slows boarding procedures.

Screen Capture Video Loses Quality When Imported Into iMovie - WHY?

I am using screen capture software to make a video of my screen at 1024x768. The video is for a tutorial. I want to use iMove to get things like transitions and such into the movie, and to add text and audio. The problem is that, although the video looks great in QuickTime, it loses quality significanly when I import into iMove. The text on the screen is blurry, and the quality of everything else is terrible as well.
Is this s limitation of iMove? Can screen capture video be imported? Does it only work with DV?
Also, I tried to convert the file to many other formats, from QuickTime to MPEG-4, so it's not the file type.
If anyone can help me out, I've be very grateful.
Thanks!
iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.5)

Your dimensions are getting in the way. iMovie converts your 1024X768 to a DV Stream file that is 720X480.
One workaround would be to set your display resolution smaller. Try 800X600 (if your windows fit that size).
If you're using Snapz Pro you should set your window capture to 640X480. This size will import nicely into iMovie.
An even better way would be to do all of the work using QuickTime Pro. Again a 1024X768 QT.mov file would not fit on the most common display settings used. When you add the QT Player window the controller would be below the screen and not accessible for most users.
800X600 would make a better file (smaller, too). It would still be 4:3 aspect and would also import into iMovie.

Screen captures to DV format

I have QT movies of screen tutorials via Snapz Pro at 1080x720, Animation codec. Due to limitations of FCE (it can't maintain quality of original QT file) I'm going to import these in FCP6 and adjust size, zooms, etc. Once edited and ready for export, what format and specs should I use so the resulting QT movie will be native to FCE, and/or render with no quality loss? The original QT movies look great with menus and dialogs that are clear and legible, but FCE severely degrades this (in output both to tape and to QT files) hence the temporary move to FCP. Thanks.

FCE is DV, HDV and AIC only.
Animation is essentially uncompressed footage. All the ones listed above are heavily compressed.
What do you want to do with these screen captures - go to a DVD, go to the web as streaming video or ?

Screen Captures Used in FCP

I am capturing some streaming movies from the internet, legally, with full knowledge of the copyright owners, and saving them as .mov files, at their original size.
I have been able to import them to the FCE Timeline, render, and they play just fine.
The only problem is that FCE automatically scales up their size, according to which side is the longest length, to fit the 720x480 size of my DV movie.
What I want is to import them and have them remain in their original size, so I can float them over another video background. The whole idea is that the audience will know they are screen captures from the internet.
Can anybody tell me how to do this? Please and thanks.

Thank you both, but especially Meg.
I kept looking and looking for that check box and couldn't find it, until you pasted in your screen grab. That was very helpful, because the box says something different from what Tom indicated: "Scale to Sequence Size" vs. "Scale to Fit Window". I'm a little iffy on the whole idea of sequences yet, or maybe I'm just too literal. Or stoopid.
Anyway, very good, and thanks!
Hey, what kind of dog are you, anyway?

Dov Isaacs on Screen Captures Dov Isaacs had this to write about screen captures: *************** Date: Wed, 23 May 2001 10:23:22 -0700 From: "Dov Isaacs" <[email protected]> Subject: Imported / Placed Images - MORE (You Asked for It!) All: Some additional issues were raised yesterday both on-list and in some private emails to me about me postings with regards to screen capture images specifically and images in general. Issue #1 - UNIX =============== UNIX is not my specialty and Adobe no longer provides a version of Photoshop for any flavour of UNIX. Thus, my advice for UNIX users of FrameMaker are effectively to capture the raw image as TIFF, process the image on Windows or Macintosh to obtain the EPS file with the image interpolation option, and then move the resultant EPS file back to your UNIX-based system for use with FrameMaker. Issue #2 - File Size - Screen Captures ====================================== There is no question that the binary EPS files that result from the procedures I outlined yesterday are somewhat bloated compared to other files holding the same content. The resultant PDF files at the end of the process, though, are exceptionally compact. To show what is going on, I captured an image showing one of the PSCRIPT driver dialog windows. I saved the resultant RGB image in a number of different formats. The following are the files, sizes, and explanations: Printer Properties.bmp - 899 KBytes RGB and K only, no CMYK option, no compression option, no display/print-time interpolation, limited cross-platform interoperability, application/driver resampling problems Printer Properties.gif - 20 KBytes RGB only, no CMYK option, 24 bit color reduced to 8 bit color, no display/print-time interpolation, application/driver resampling problems Printer Properties.tif - 61 KBytes no display/print-time interpolation, application/driver resampling problems Printer Properties Direct ASCII.eps - 2735 KBytes no compression, enormous size (includes TIFF preview) Printer Properties Direct Binary.eps - 1462 KBytes no compression, large size (includes TIFF preview) care must be taken in setting Windows PostScript printer driver to correct binary option (most often TBCP if not AppleTalk printer) Clearly, you are indeed paying an on-host penalty in file size by using the EPS approach that I outlined. The resultant PDF generated from this content most often is SMALLER than the PDF generated from TIFF equivalents and has higher quality, but you will pay in terms file size of the on-host "content" files with the images. (You may ask "why are the EPS files from Photoshop so bloated?" The answer is two-fold. Part of the problem comes from the fact that Photoshop does not have a compression option for non-JPEG EPS export, although it has a ZIP compression option for non-JPEG PDF export. The other part of the problem is the TIFF preview header, which surprising enough, takes at least as much space as the "base" uncompressed image in PostScript. Yucck!) But alas, I did find a way of fixing this problem enough to be quite a bit more tolerable. (If local disk space is not a problem, then you need not worry about trying this stuff out!) Instead of saving the image as EPS with the interpolation option in either Photoshop 6 or Photoshop Elements 1, save the image as Photoshop PDF with the interpolation option and ZIP compression (not JPEG!!) using either one of those programs. THEN, in Acrobat 5, save the PDF file as binary EPS, TIFF header, language level 3. (In Acrobat 4.05a, export the PDF file similarly!) Resultant files (both ASCII and binary flavours): Printer Properties.pdf - 23 KBytes Most compact format for this image type Not appropriate for FrameMaker import/placement. Printer Properties from Acro5 ASCII.eps - 400 KBytes Slightly larger than binary equivalent, much larger in the general case, though (includes TIFF preview) Printer Properties from Acro5 Binary.eps - 396 KBytes Slightly smaller than ASCII equivalent, much smaller in the general case, though (includes TIFF preview) care must be taken in setting Windows PostScript printer driver to correct binary option (most often TBCP if not AppleTalk printer) With the replacement step of generating PDF instead of EPS and then the extra steps of running Acrobat and saving/exporting PDF, you save over two thirds of the disk space for the EPS files. There is no quality loss in this process. The savings in disk space is due to the fact that unlike non-JPEG EPS export from Photoshop/Photoshop Elements, PDF export from the same program can ZIP compress images as well. Screen captures do exceptionally well with non-lossy ZIP compression. The EPS save/export from Acrobat maintains the images' ZIP compression. The remaining "bloat" in these Acrobat-generated EPS files is the result of Acrobat's PostScript procedures in the EPS file as well as the TIFF header. Bottom line is that I think the extra steps are worth it if you want to conserve disk space. If you want to re-edit THESE EPS files in Photoshop, unlike the EPS files directly saved from Photoshop, extreme care must be taken in opening them to avoid weird resampling. Issue #3 - Non-Screen Capture Images ==================================== I would still recommend EPS as a better means of importing/placing images into FrameMaker such that resampling does not occur in the application or driver. Likewise, I would not recommend ever resampling any such images to a higher resolution. Turn on the image interpolation option and let either Acrobat or the ultimate PostScript printing device do the hard lifting for you. You gain nothing by carrying around the extra data which really contains no real new data. This is most likely contrary to what your service bureaus and printers will tell you as gospel and what their pre-flight software will advise you to "correct," but resampling here buys nothing at all. (If they still don't believe you, have them contact me!) I have revised the recommendations from yesterday based on the above ... - Dov ======================================================================== Based on our experience at Adobe, there is one way that easily yields the highest quality computer screen shots for both display and printing. (1) Grab the image with whatever your favorite tool is. Under Windows, the easiest thing to do is Alt-PrintScrn which puts the RGB bits onto the pasteboard. On the Mac, Shift-Command-4 followed by CapsLock yields an image file. (2a) Under Windows with Photoshop 6, create a new document. It will automatically be the size of the image on the pasteboard. CTRL-V will then paste the screen capture into that new image. Then, flatten that image. (2b) Under MacOS with Photoshop 6, open the generated image file (a PICT file with a name of the form "Picture x" where "x" is an integer). (3) Convert the screen shot image to CMYK or grayscale to suit your needs. Not all service bureaus require CMYK! If you are displaying the PDF file and printing to laser printers, CMYK buys you nothing other than potentially a larger file. (4) Flatten the image. Layers buy you nothing here and may cause problems later in saving the file. (5) Do not resize or change resolution of the image!!!!!! (Why? Because you generally don't know at this time exactly what the magnifications and resolutions are that you will be viewing and printing with! In fact, zooming in and out with Acrobat or Acrobat Reader changes those requirements on the fly. Better to simply just have the captured data. Upsampling or downsampling at time of need to exact specifications yields much better results than multiple such transformations!) (6a) Re-editable by Photoshop, but "bloated" EPS file size option! Save the image using File=>Save As using the "Photoshop EPS" option. In the "EPS options" screen, you should use the TIFF (8bits/pixel) preview option (yields an EPS file that can be used both on Mac and Windows), Encoding "binary" (ASCII can be twice the size and JPEG is totally inappropriate for screen shots). Check "PostScript color management" if you are using color management in your workflow. The key though is that you MUST check "Image Interpolation". This sets a image dictionary key that Adobe PostScript Level 2, Adobe PostScript 3, Acrobat, and Acrobat Reader use to do very high quality image interpolation and/or downsampling appropriate to the device's actual resolution and technology at the time the image is viewed or printed. (Distiller passes this key along from PostScript or EPS in a PostScript stream into the equivalent PDF image key!) Close Photoshop 6. OR (6b) Compact EPS file size option! (i) Save the image using File=>Save As using the "Photoshop PDF" option. In the "PDF options" screen, you should use the ZIP encoding (lossless compression) option. The key though is that you MUST check "Image Interpolation". This sets a image dictionary key that Adobe PostScript Level 2, Adobe PostScript 3, Acrobat, and Acrobat Reader use to do very high quality image interpolation and/or downsampling appropriate to the device's actual resolution and technology at the time the image is viewed or printed. (Distiller passes this key along from PostScript or EPS in a PostScript stream into the equivalent PDF image key!) (ii) Close Photoshop 6. (iii) Open the resultant PDF file in Acrobat 5 or 4.05a. Save the PDF file as an EPS file using the export function in Acrobat 4.05a or the Save As function in Acrobat 5. Set the options for binary EPS, TIFF header, and language level 3. (iv) Close Acrobat. (7) Import the resultant EPS file into whatever application you have in which you wish to include the screen print. Obviously you will only see the EPS preview in those applications (except for InDesign), but your resultant printed output (via PostScript or PostScript=>PDF) or display via Acrobat / Acrobat Reader will be of exceptionally high quality. During distillation, do not downsample any of these images. Downsampling of the screen shots can be avoided by having a high enough threshold for downsampling; 300dpi or higher will do! Working on a budget? It turns out that you can replace Adobe Photoshop 6 with Adobe Photoshop Elements 1.0 if you do not need to convert to CMYK and don't need any other advanced image handling. This could save you $500 a copy if your image handling needs are more limited. NO, as far as I know, neither JASC nor Corel PhotoPaint nor any of the other budget image edit programs offer the EPS export image interpolation option, assuming they even offer the EPS format. Furthermore, none of the nifty screen capture utilities that we know of offer either EPS or EPS with the image interpolation option. We know of NO better means of producing high quality printed or displayed screen shots in an output device independent manner. Forget GIF, TIFF, BMP, and especially JPEG. Forgetting the issue of the image interpolation feature for the time being, use of any of these formats results in the "host" program (such as FrameMaker or Microsoft Word, etc.) doing their own resizing of the image in conjunction with the PostScript drivers based on the device resolution selected. The bottom line is that by the time Acrobat gets to display the image or the PostScript RIP gets the image data, the image data will have been upsampled, downsampled, resampled, i.e. overmangled! Also, note that for purposes of placing other images in FrameMaker or similar applications, EPS with the image interpolation also is the preferred means of image placement for exactly the same reasons. In terms of image resolution, you may choose to leave as-is and let the Distiller do the heavy lifting, if necessary or downsample in Photoshop if the original image is grossly over-endowed, so to speak. Remember, you cannot later reconstruct what you downsample now. With regards to the "resolution" that you set the Acrobat Distiller printer to, that resolution primarily affects non-EPS image handling. As long as you set the resolution to 600 dpi or greater, character and vector artwork placement will be fine and not affected. You don't need to use the resolution of the final device (in fact, don't go over 1200 dpi under Windows or you might hit a nasty bug in FrameMaker's interface with the driver). For distillation job options, always use "compress text and line art". This is non-lossy compression and you gain nothing by not using it other than a larger PDF file size. I know that this information is very much at odds with what your service bureaus, printers, or Kinkos will tell you, but it is authoritative and Adobe Systems Incorporated stands behind it completely when used in conjunction with Adobe Acrobat and RIPs with Adobe PostScript Level 2 or Adobe PostScript 3.

Screen Capture Solution, and/or HD Recording

I am part of the video conferencing group at a university. Aside from broadcasting classes, we also archive them and provide media recording solutions for faculty and staff. In the past, we have used the Flash Media Live Encoder to record A/V streams, and later host them on our Flash Media Server for later viewing.
Increasingly though, our professors have been requesting a way to capture their Powerpoints/Documents/Etc. off of the computer in full resolution while they are teaching the class, and having the standard video image of their lecture attached to it in some way. We have tried using Sonic Foundry's MediaSite device, and while it gets the job done (simultaneously records audio, video, and computer screen), it is tedious to work with, as it uses it's own proprietary player. What we really need is something that records one large FLV file, with the video image overlayed on top of the computer image at high resoution.
Now, does Adobe have any software/hardware that can capture all three, whether it integrates with Captivate or is stand-alone? If not, then is there a way to get the Flash Media Live Encoder to record at HD resolutions? (if there is, we have PiP equipment that can feed two video sources simultaneously) Right now, the max resolution our Encoder will record at is 720x576.

You can try with free screen capture softwares like :
UScreen Capture
VHScreen Capture
Camtasia
Also there are many device which can do this like Vision RGB, Epiphan etc.
These devices gets listed in FMLE as anyother normal video device. For audio you van attach any mike on your computers and can use the sound card of your system in audio device list.
These devices lets you capture HD video at maximum 10 FPS depending upon your machine hardware capabilities but i think this FPS is more tha sufficient for power point slides and presentations.
Also please keep bitrates little bit high because of high size video.
Please let me know if this works for you.

Captivate 7 Screen Captures (scrolling) not showing when published in HTML5

I am using Captivate 7 and when I publish in HTML5 my screen captures (of the screen scrolling) do not show -- I get a blank screen for a couple of seconds --, even though they show when I preview for the Web in HTML5. They also show when I play them locally, but not from my server. Here is a link to a short video that has this problem -- click the fast forward button seven times after clicking play to get to a screen scroll. http://streaming.missioncollege.org/library/media/Tutorials/Title/index.html

I was using Internet Explorer 9. This morning I tried 10 & 11 with the same results. It works fine in Chrome and on a Mac with Safari. I do not have my iPad with me today, but I tried it this weekend and had the same problem, though I just updated my OS, so I will try again. If it does not work well on an iPad then I might as well output as FLASH. I will try my iPad again tonight and report back tomorrow. Thanks.
