Shared photostream mp4 video sharing problem

Is anybody able to add an mp4 video to a shared photostream using the latest icloud control panel for the PC (3.0).  Apple says mp4 files are compatible but they are filtered out of the results when I browse to the folder with them.  The only ones I can add that I've found are .mov.

OK, I figured it out.  There appears to be a bug with icloud control panel 3.0 that doesn't allow you to do step 4, bullet point 2 for mp4 videos; however, apple gives you an option to do step 4, bullet point one instead:
On a Windows computer
Select Photo Stream under Favorites in a folder window of File Explorer (Windows 8) or Windows Explorer (Windows 7).
Double-click the shared stream you want to add photos or videos to.
Click "Add photos or videos” in the toolbar.
In the dialog that appears, do either of the following:
Drag photos or videos to the dialog from another window.
Click “Choose photos or videos.”
Click Done.

  • I made an iMovie with mp4 video & shared to iDVD --

    I created an iMovie using mp4 video, then shared it to a iDVD to burn it.  When I tried to burn it, I got an "error in movie encoding".  How can I fix this and make it work?  thanks.

  • MP4 Video playback problem - any idea how to make it work?

    Mp4 video files are working when opened from local filesystem but now working when opened from the web
    Here is example:
    var video:Video = new Video();
    addChild(video);
    var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
    nc.connect(null);
    var customClient:Object = new Object();
    customClient.onMetaData = ns_onMetaData;
    var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);
    ns.client = customClient;
    ns.play("http://www.voyda.eu/projects/not_working2.mp4"); // here is actual a file so you can test it
    ns.play(url);
    video.attachNetStream(ns);
    Using above code will result in not playing the video file. Interesting think is that the same video file is played well when opening from local filesystem. Just download the file, change ns.play param to "not_working2.mp4"
    ns.play("not_working2.mp4");
    and see if it's working.

    My first guess would be that you're running into a security/sandboxing issue.  Can you send me your Flash Builder project file?

  • Nokia 6270 MP4 Video - Big Problem

    Hello,
    I've bought a Nokia 6270 a few months ago, and i still cannot get MP4 video to play properly.
    I've figured out how to get MP4 videos to play, but no matter what bit rate i set it to, it lags behind the video.
    I've even tried 96 kbps and 15 frames a second.
    Has anyone gotten MP4 videos to play properly on the Nokia 6270? Without lag?
    Is it a firmware issue? I am running firmware 3.69 on Nokia 6270.

  • Mp4 video sharing

    I hope this in the correct area. Its actually kinda using itunes on both PC and mac
    I have a massive itunes collection on a G4 tower running 10.4.8 with a lot of movies saved as .mp4 formate.
    I can view them without a problem on my macbookpro using itunes sharing over wireless.
    However when trying to view them on a windows laptop it doesn't work. It simply doesn't play. The windows laptop can play the video if they are in its itunes collection. However just not streaming. It can however stream .m4v videos (both brought from the itunes store, and those from eyetv)
    I can also stream video (mp4) from the PC's itunes to the mac
    I also have another friend who has this problem
    Does anyone have any suggestions?

    I am having the same problem (and have posted separately)
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=851963
    It's interesting that it works from the PC to the Mac, but not from the Mac to the PC. I have a windows laptop and PC and the streaming doesn't work from either end. I've tried file formats of .mp4 .m4v and .mov but none of them work. The .mov file was encoded specifically for streaming, but still no joy.
    Each machine will play the files which are stored locally, but they will not stream over the network. If anyone has an answer I'd be most grateful.

  • MP4 Video stream problem

    I am trying to stream video to my iPad from my NAS Drive. I have used HANDBRAKE to convert the video into MP4, but my iPad wont play it. what is the best format to convert to so I can stream from my NAS drive.

    I'm experiencing a similar issue and it might be related. My current setup I'm using Netbeans IDE 5.0 beta. I've imported a working example from the J2ME Wireless Toolkit called "mmademo". This demo allows you select a midlet called "Simple Player". This simple player allows you to type in the address (httP://xxx.com/video.mpg) and playback that video in a form.
    Like I said the demo works fine when run from the Toolkit. But when I run it from a new project I've created in Netbeans IDE I get the following error:
    doRealize: UnsatisfiedLinkError java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no jmcustommpx in java.library.path
    What I'm really trying to do is play back streaming video from a http source. My target platform is the palm os running IBM Everyplace Micro Edition that Palm has licensed.
    Any ideas out there why I'm receiving this error message?
    Thanks

  • Shared Photostream Sync Problems - HELP!

    Hi - I have an iphone 4 with ios6.
    I have set up several shared photostreams and added photos to these and invited subscribers.All that seemed fine, but here's the problems I've experienced and would be interested to know if this is a common/known issue:
    1) On one photostream, I have added 187 photos and on the device I added the photos from, I can see all 187 photos. However subscribers can only see 99 of the photos. I looked on my iPad, and I too can only see 99 photos on that device. So...... I deleted the photos and re-added. This time I can see the 187 photos on the source device, and subscribers can only see 129! Is there a known issue with syncing of photos through to a shared photostream.
    2) On a second photostream, I added 35 photos. Subscribers could see all photos, as could I on all devices. One hour later, the photostream is empty on my source device and for all subscribers.
    3) A friend added me as a subscriber to a photostream of his. I cannot see of the photos despite other subscribers seeing them.
    4) Lastly, I deleted one shared stream and started again, but yet again, subscribers can only see a portion of what I have added.
    Any advice?
    Thanks

    Hello jordan0101,
    And welcome to Apple Discussions!
    This article should be able to help you.

    okay, i went to take a band off my itouch, when you do that you click the box where the check is and it will disappear that way when you sync it will take that particular artist off your itouch. but when i do that it still stays on my itouch.
    That will only remove the song(s) if you have the *Sync all checked songs and videos* option enabled from under the iPod's Summary tab.

  • With ios 7 how can I add videos from a shared photostream to my camera roll?

    When I am viewing a shared photostream that I subscribe to I am able to select photos and add them to my camera roll (essentially saving someone's shared photos to my device).  Now that you can add videos to shared photostreams with ios 7 I was hoping to be able to do the same with videos.  However, when I view a shared vieo and attempt to save it to my camera roll it is not an option.  Any ideas on how to do this?

    iCloud: Shared Photo Streams FAQ
    iCloud Photo Sharing FAQ
    iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Photo Sharing and Shared Photo Streams
    To save photos/video from the photo stream to your camera roll, select it, click the share button, and select "save to camera roll". It will remain in the photo stream as well, until you delete it.

  • Cannot open videos on shared photostream using apple devices

    All members  of our shared photostream are unable to open posted videos. Pictures are present.  This affects only those using Apple devices, i.e. iPhones & iPads all models.  People who are viewing the photostream on a Windows device are able to see the videos.

    Just started having this issue as well!
    I can view the shared videos in iPhoto via my iMac but not a single one of my iOS devices will play the videos. 

  • HT4858 Videos not playing in shared photostream albums on IOS7.

    I share a photostream album with my family who have all upgraded to IOS7 on their devices. However, when I add videos (taken with iPhone 5) to the shared photostream, none of the recipients can play it. It simply hangs. They all have a good connection capable of playing 720p videos. Any ideas?

    Seems this has already been discussed with no fix as of yet

  • HT201077 I cannot download video from shared photostream

    I can upload video to a shared photostream. I can see video in my and others photostreams. But I cannot save any video from shared photostream to my Ipad. It is declared officially that it is possible. But after I tap SELECT and tap a video in shared photostream, the DOWNLOAD sign in the left top corner does not become blue. It stays grey and does not offer any options if I tap it. If I do the same actions with any photo (not video) it works well. But with video it refuses to activate this download sign in the left top corner of the screen.

  • Itunes in windows fails to play Shared Library's Video!!!

    Hello, I'm not sure if this is a bug but I have thoroughly tested it in both Vista and XP.
    If I share my Itunes' Library and access it from another PC (vista or XP tested), it can list the tvshows/movies/podcasts just fine, but when I play it, nothing happens. I see some network activity for brief 3-4 seconsd and then it stops.
    The videos were imported into itunes on the macbook pro just fine (meaning the encoding is fine, MP4) and when I copied those videos file manually over to the PCs, the play fine too. Even if I share them over the network through SMB, they play fine streaming. They only fail when I play them through itunes' shared library.
    95% of the videos fail, except for a few that I noticed and have not yet figured out a pattern. Videos that seems to work are 1) the downloaded guided tour video of iLife08 2) the mac tips podcasts from apple 3) a movie I converted using Quicktime into MP4 from divx
    Any ideas?

    This may indeed be the Windows version of iTunes (and QuickTime) being fussier than the Mac version.
    However I did in Windows XP, take a video that would not work, export it using QuickTime Pro (on Windows) with the Prepare for Streaming option ticked, and the resulting video did then work, also taking the same original video that did not work and in iTunes 7.4.3 (on Windows) and converting it to AppleTV format, also produced a version that then did work for iTunes Sharing.
    A video can be in MPEG4 format (or H.264) and meet the Apple specifications for iPod or Apple TV resolution, but it is quite possible it may not have been 'prepared for streaming'.
    There have been similar reports from FrontRow (in Mac OS X) users accessing videos from an iTunes Share and having problems (typically very poor performance) and when they used the prepare for streaming option the problems went away.

  • Help with Shared Photostream

    Hi guys!
    I could need some help with the shared Photostream function.
    I read the Q&A about it and i'm sure now that my shared Photostream albums wont delete by apple at anytime.
    Also i read about the Limits of Upload 1000 an Hour, 10.000 a Day.
    My idea is to use the Shared Photostream Album function as an online Backup before selling my old iPhone.
    Here is my Problem:
    I got a lot of pictures on my Old iPhone, and i experienced a Lot of Memory usage through the new Albums i created so far,
    So my Memory space is totally Full... I thought it's mainly online space used?
    Next Problem is that the Upload wont work correct. It's only working with a 100-200 pictures After that i Can select other pictures
    But These wont upload anymore...
    And If i erase my old iPhone the iCloud Shared Photoalbum wont be affected?
    Thank you very much for your help!

    No, the data is deleted from your device but not from iCloud.  The only thing you won't be able to access after signing back in is my photo stream photos older than 30 days (which is why you should save them to your camera roll before deleting the account).
    The other thing you might want to review are shared photo stream limits, in case you might have exceeded these: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4858.  These include a maximum of 5000 photos & videos per shared stream (combined), and 1000 photos & videos per hour (from all contributors).

  • Can I create a shared photostream from my pc?

    I know I can upload photos from my PC to My Photostream, but I want to create a Shared Photostream (album) with photos from my PC.  It seems I cannot create an individual Shared Photostream album on my PC, and upload pictures to it.  I can only create a Shared Photostream from my iPhone, and upload photos to it from my iPhone.  Am I doing something wrong?
    The problem with My Photostream is the photos there will get bumped in time, with pictures taken by my iPhone.  I want to keep the photos in a Shared Photostream (album) so as to play them on my Apple TV.
    What can I do?
    Thanks!!!

    Thanks so much.  I clicked the New photo stream link at the top and was able to make an album of photos to display on my Apple TV, just as desired.  Only problem now is that the Random Theme selection in Apple TV does not rotate amongst the various themes, it just sticks on one, unlike the Random Theme selection in Ken Burns or Classic selection choices at the bottom of the list which does rotate.  If you know anything about this, please let me know.  Meanwhile thanks again to set me straight on the first tip!

  • Looking for video sharing app to create .mov

    Hello,
    I hope I am in the right place and apologize if I am not.
    I am looking for a foundation to build a video sharing application for Golfswing.com.
    We need to allow our visitors to upload video of their swings (these clips are >3 second) in any video format then convert to quicktime for playback.
    Why Quicktime you ask? Because Quicktime is the only player that allows frame by frame playback of the golfers swing. Like this,

    Any ideas, suggestions, directions, comments, endorsements are greatly appreciated.

    ffmpeg supports outputting .mov files. Not sure where you heard otherwise.
