Stream video during conference possible?

Is it possible to play a youtube video for example during a conference? I can share my screen, but the audio does not pass through. Anyone have any success doing this?
thanks

Hi
I know this is a relatively old topic but just wanted to put a word in.
Sharing the program itself still does not provide audio. I am starting a discussion to see how many people would like to see this feature:

  • Reply if you think Microsoft should make Streaming video in conferences possible.

    Hi all,
    After recently implementing Lync in our environment, i was asked a question by one of the users. 
    "Why cant Lync stream video files during conferences like Webex"
    I researched a lot, even tried to embed files in powerpoint but there are a lot of restrictions and limitations and so on...
    On the other hand, alternative solutions like webex and PGI are very much capable of providing this feature. which brings me to this discussion:
    "REPLY TO THIS POST TO LET MICROSOFT KNOW THIS FEATURE IS IMPORTANT AND THAT THEY SHOULD ADDRESS IT IN THEIR NEXT RELEASE"
    I hope, I am not the only needing this feature :)
    thanks

    I would recommend you submit your suggestion on:  http://lync.ideascale.com/ .
    This site is not supported by Microsoft, but many in the Lync community will vote on your items.

  • Poor quality streaming videos

    I've noticed that my imac can't handle or should I say doesn't have the same quality streaming playback as my PC. I thought mac's were meant to handle media, graphics, video's & such. I'm presently running with what came with my OS which is Quicktime 7 & I downloaded the newest version of media player but the picture quality on both are very poor with visible pixels & frequent stalling & pausing. Can anyone suggest a program out there or maybe I've got something setup wrong.

    Quicktime 7 & I downloaded the newest version of media player but the picture quality on both are very poor with visible pixels & frequent stalling & pausing.
    Poor quality video is usually the result of low resolution media files being streamed to you, If you play any of the movie trailers on the Quicktime site, for example, you can see the high quality of streaming video that is possible in Quicktime.
    I cannot recall visiting any sites recently that have high quality feeds for Windows Media Player. Many of the WMP feeds I have seen look fine if you keep the player window on the small side, but rapidly disintigrate as you enlarge the window. I have to admit I have not looked for sites with WMP content, so what I have seen is just that which I have come across.

  • Watching streaming video on an 867mhz TiBook?

    I'm struggling to watch streamed video content on my 867mhz TiBook and wondered whether there was anything I could do to make content run properly? It's running 10.4.11 with 1GB RAM, using Safari. I'm trying to watch BBC i-Player content.
    Thanks

    1. Don't have any other applications or operations running at the same time.
    2. If you can download the video first and then watch it from your hard drive instead of streaming it in real time, do so.
    3. Check with your ISP to see whether they offer an option providing greater bandwidth and faster download speeds.
    4. If you use cable internet, watch streaming video during off-peak hours when there's less competition for the available bandwidth.
    5. Expect the steadily growing demands of multimedia-laden websites to make your Powerbook completely obsolete for such uses before long. Some would tell you it already is obsolete, and they aren't far wrong.

  • Mac Mini 2011 Fan is Noisy During Streaming Video

    Mac mini 2011 2.3 GZ. When I watch Youtube streaming video fullscreen or video chat with someone on Skype, the fan kicks into high gear and gets really noisy. Fan gets to about 5200 rpm and CPU up to 75C. I don't get the heat or fan noise during avi/Quicktime/VLC playback, or an Skype, audio alone. I don't recall this on my 2009 Mac Mini. Is this normal?
    Only variable is an 8 gigabyte RAM upgrade.

  • Streaming Video to PDF Without Flash: Is It Possible?

    I'm creating an interactive PDF that needs to be fully supported on both desktop and mobile devices, which has limited my options considerably as mobile support for interactive PDF elements is very limited [I can pretty much only rely on hyperlinks to take me from page to page as well as to external websites]. My client wants videos included, which work inside of the mobile app were delivering to [Documents by Readdle] when embedded as part of the file, but they also want the PDF to be under 25MB, which isn't practical when it comes to compressing 6+ videos and not completely throwing out the quality.
    The solution I need is streaming video that would work without the use of a Flash widget, as Flash is not supported on iOS. Does that exist, or is the only way to stream video from an online source inside the PDF document with Flash?
    I'm creating the documnet with InDesign CC, and have access to the entire CC Suite.

    It's theoretically possible to define an external media URI which uses a non-Flash protocol if you skirt around the edges of the ISO standards but there is no software out there which can do it, and I don't see that changing anytime soon.
    PDFs with video and interactivity are simply not suitable for mobile deployment. Your project will either need to split the deliverables (PDF for desktop, native app for mobile platforms) or publish using HTML5 in a browser and use something like YouTube to push the media content.

  • Is it possible to stream video into a PDF document with HTML 5?

    I'm trying to get around using flash to stream videos into my interactive PDF documents, as it's not supported on iOS. I'm wondering if there's a way to use HTML 5 to acomplish something similar. I have access to both InDesign CC and the latest version of Adobe Acrobat Pro.

    An alternative is to separate the quiz pages to a separate document and include it in the main PDF as a file attachment. You can create links in the main document to the attachment so that it opens in a new window. When this quiz document is closed, the main document will be open.

  • I notice my fan whirs fast during streaming video; is there a workaround?

    My fan gets up there (I am thinking it's in the 5000s RPMs, if I remember my reading correctly) when I'm playing streaming video (on netflix, using Silverlight). I get no fan noise when playing downloaded video (like an .mov) in Quicktime or MPlayer.
    I have tried elevating my laptop so that the center part of it is totally free. The fans still go.
    I am wondering if this is an issue with Firefox in some way. Are other browsers better at streaming video?
    The sound may be necessary, but it is slightly annoying. And I notice I am getting slightly annoyed with it.
    Misha

    Are you both running Mountain Lion?
    I get the impression that my mac runs hotter when watching any video (streamed or not) since installing ML than it did uner Snow Leopard, but I haven't confirmed this with any solid empirical testing (perhaps I'm just more sensitive to what's going on under the hood now than I was before).

  • Safari Crashes Computer during Streaming Video play.

    So, for the past week or three I've been having some problems with Safari on my Old Macbook Pro, namely that when I'm trying to watch streaming video it'll freeze up. But not always. And it's only the video that freezes, not the sound. That'll play fine, but I'll only get a still image. At first I thought it was Hulu, but it's been happening on quite a number of video sites. So... yeah.
    Has anyone else had this problem, and if so, what did you do to fix it? Is there an update I need?

    HI,
    You need to uninstall the version of Flash Player plugin you have and reinstall a new copy.
    Go here to uninstall Flash.

    When you are finished uninstalling the old Flash plugin, go here and install a fresh copy
    of Flash Player plugin.

    As with any software installations, repair disk permissions.
    Quit any open applications/programs. Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.

  • Is it possible to display streaming video on a front panel?

    I've created a motion-control software interface for a laser-processing station.  It would be helpful if, when calibrating the origin of the stages, streaming video could be shown on the front panel from a camera on the setup.  Can LabVIEW support this?

    what is the format of the streaming video, you can use an activeX control like media player to do this most likely.

  • Computer sleeps during streaming video

    Bought this lovely second hand G5 and its great except it goes to sleep while watching streaming video online.
    I have tried watching videos from such sites as; YouTube, MySpace, CollegeHumor, ect. on both Safari and Firefox. Anywhere between 30 seconds to a minute into the video my computer puts itself into sleep mode.
    HELP! Suggestions?

    Hi LaPotter, and a warm welcome to the forums!
    Sounds like a Heat/Video card problem.
    Have you booted off the Install Disk by holding the *d key* down at boot-up, (not the c key), and run the extended Apple HW Test? Some Install disks require holding the Option key at bootup to select the AHT. Some Macs came with separate AHT CDs.

  • Loud Buzzing/Clicking Noise During High Activity (i.e. Streaming Video)

    Hi,
    My Macbook is the 2006 model, a MacBook 1, 1 -- the 2 GHz model with 1 GB ram.  I've stopped using it as my primary computer over the last year and a half, but I would love to resuscitate it.  Perhaps someone can advise me as to what is wrong and how I might proceed.
    For a 5-year old system, the computer is still pretty operational.  However, whenever I attempt to do a high energy task on the computer (such as stream video on Hulu), in just a short amount of time a loud, low-pitched buzzing/clicking sound emits from within the laptop.  The sound is so loud that it more or less drowns out the sound unless I hook the computer up to speakers.  It feels as if the sound is accompanied by some vibration from within.  This is NOT the high-pitched beeping/buzzing that other MacBook Pro owners complain of (although I have experienced this intermittently as well).  I suspect that this is coming from the hard drive, but not being an expert, I wonder if this is the processor, or perhaps a fan?
    I would love to repair this problem, upgrade this system to a later Mac OS, and continue using this MacBook as a glorified desktop for low-impact activities.  Does anyone have any advice as to how I might proceed, or might I be better off cutting my losses with this MacBook?
    Thanks for any advice.

    I should clarify that this is a MacBook PRO.

  • Slow, jerky streaming video on G4 iMac

    I am running Leopard 10.5.3 with no problems on a 1GHz G4 iMac with 1 gig of RAM. However, streaming video is virtually unwatchable: it is always slow and jerky. My internet connection is a steady 6.5 mbps down.
    Any suggestions on how I can make streaming video watchable?
    Thanks. . .

    Streaming video from over the internet isn't going to tax your video card.
    It's going to be either the broadband connection, the wireless, or the CPU struggling with an advanced video codec like H264.
    The MDD starts to struggle at about 1500kbps video/audio in H264 decompression. If you have any other processes running (like Spotlight Indexing in OSX 10.4 and 10.5 - which is a real killer just after a fresh install) then you're even more severely limited, perhaps 1300kbps.
    Sustained AirPort 'b' (for MDD) tops out at about 4000kbps with a perfect signal. The advertised 11Mbps is theoretical and something close may only be possible in a burst mode. Even if your wireless strength is perfect, there may be interference that will cut throughput in half, then half again.
    Don't know your broadband connection, but ISPs here in the UK use "traffic shaping", cutting back on our 8Mbps throughput to little more than 2Mbps, sometime less during busy periods (evenings, weekends, if you live in a primarily residential area).
    If any of these areas force your throughput to drop below the rate at which the TV show in encoded, you get jumpy video and/or audio.

  • Speed tests say 6-7Mbps, but can't stream video

    I have a brand new BT Home Hub 3, connected to the main socket, through an i-plate and I am on the Option 3 upto 20Mb broadband package.
    When I run a speed test I typically get 6-7Mbps which whilst rubbish compared to the 'upto 20Mbps' I am paying for should be sufficient. However sometimes if I try to watch BBC i-player on maximum resolution through my PS3 it stops and loads every few seconds. I know streaming high resolution video is fairly demanding, but not that demanding, I am not doing anything else at the same time so I think 6-7Mbps should be plenty. This only happens sometimes, but if I am trying to watch a film around 08:00pm on a 'school night' it happens more often than not.
    If I drop the resolution it normally settles down, so I guess I am right on the edge of what it can handle, and I have a sort of 'work around'. But I am paying for the top level of broadband BT offer (they haven't put fibre optic in my exchange yet) and have the top level of kit BT supply, and I am not asking for the moon on a stick, just BBC i-player on top resolution.
    I am normally connecting the PS3 wirelessly but I always have 100% wireless signal when I check on the PS3, the Hub and PS3 are less than 3m apart, in the same room, with nothing between them and no kit that could be causing interference (except for the Plasma TV near the PS3, but it wouldn't be much use if it wasn't connected to a TV!) and a couple of times I have had the same problem when I have connected them through an ethernet cable to check. I have seen a few bits of guidance saying try a differnt channel, but I think the Hub 3 does this for you automatically.
    I think sometimes when you stream video it takes a few seconds for BT to realise that you need more bandwidth and open your pipe up a bit - I am used to the video pausing and buffering a few times in the first minute then settling down - but this can go on for a whole hour.
    Please could someone step me through the diagnostics I should do as a first step. I don't know much about routers but I am prepared to go in a play with settings if someone who knows what they are doing will hold my virtual hand.
