Streaming Video in IE for mac quicktime

I am trying to watch live streaming video of sports (sent only for IE) on MacBook platform using Mav version of Quicktime. I also have downloaded Flip4Mac (Free) to covert video to play on MacBook desktop using Quicktime. When tried I get the message "backgroundimage failed"
When I play smple clips of Quicktime and Mediaplayer, they play OK.
The sample clip of the website I am trying is:
http://willow.tv/EventMgmt/UserMgmt/Packages.asp?eid=102&dclip=false
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
B.

That is exactly the problem. That site tansmits for IE browser.
However, I was told that Flip4Mac is supposed to convert WMV files in to Quicktime
files so that the streaming video can be played on Mac platform.
How can make them work together?
Thanks.

How do I capture streaming video on firefox for mac?

Is there a way to save or capture streaming video being watched on Firefox for Mac?

it's possible. i did it myself, after a few tryouts.
i still can't get the best result, but i got something.
first of all you have to save the streaming file(thru the save as qt movie, from CTRL-click). when you get a stream it gets cached on your computer. you might playback it even when offline. so if all that you need is a simple playback, that's ok. but it's a cache, sometime the system will erase it from your HD.
if you want to keep it as a qt file(or any other format) thats this is the deal. when you save the stream file, it saves a reference file(4kb) that reads the cache. you cannot recover them from the cache, not even by changing the termination, because the qt player won't recognize the .qtch files transformed into .mov.
open the file(reference you saved before), choose export from the file menu, and choose the setting that you want. i still don't get a good quality(i know it's incredible that a stream file has a better quality...) and i still have to export the video separated from the audio. but if you need only the moving image to edit a homevideo, and your only source is a stream, it's a start.
so if anyone feel like growing the knowledge tree, let's go ahead.

Different DVD to iPod Video Converter Software for Mac?

Does anybody know about different DVD to iPod Video Converter Software

Handbrake is the way to go.
Quicktime Pro does not have the ability to rip and convert DVDs.

"fire wire" video capture cards for mac pro

....Have Power Mac ver. 10.9.5 system Maverick w/ 4 MB RAM & am trying to locate hardware for:
acquiring "FIRE WIRE" video capture cards for mac pro.... ? Any suggestions....?(Just purchased Adobe CS 5 premium)

Your question doesn't make much sense.
What type of Mac Pro do you have? Is it the new black cylinder or the old style silver tower?
Firewire is built-in to the old models & the new Mac Pros can use Thunderbolt to Firewire converters to capture from Firewire sources.
Maybe like this http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD464ZM/A/apple-thunderbolt-to-firewire-adapte r
Many older cameras used Firewire for capturing, but that has been replaced by other connection types. What are you trying to capture from?

Embedding YouTube video into PowerPoint for Mac

How can one embed a YouTube video into PowerPoint for Mac 2010? The video tutorials do not show the same Power Point (for Mac) that I'm using. Even if I can just save (and retrieve) the file I just might be able to convert it to an MP4 for YouTube. I've tried keepvid and it wants a valid file format. The default is a text which doesn't work. I've spent about 8 hours over the past 2 days trying to figure it out. HELP!!!!!!

Realmedia streaming video attempts, firefox only offers Quicktime and won't

I've attempted to view streamed video in Realplayer format but the popup only allows for Quicktime as the player and that won't work of course. Anybody know how to set up Realplayer or Firefox to work together? I downloaded the latest Realplayer and Firefox and don't know why it reads the streaming video as Quicktime.

Thanks so much for your reply. It seems odd that the website would not have heard from other subscribers before about this problem but they didn't mention it when I contacted them. I was on another site yesterday with similar educational workshop videos (though MUCH longer) & my Mac worked fine. Unless like you said, they weren't high-quality. I guess I'll have to wait for the website to remedy the problem! Thanks!

Airport Extreme's support for streaming video NOT reliable for RealPlayer

AIRPORT EXTREME BASE STATIONS DO NOT RELIABLY PROVIDE STREAMING SUPPORT USING NORMAL TRANSPORTS FOR REALPLAYER.
Based on a problem I've had for a long time and information provided in RealPlayer OnLine Help, it appears that the Airport Extreme Base Stations do not reliably provide streaming support using normal transports for RealPlayer.
HERE'S THE REASON FOR CONCLUDING THAT
Even after updating with the latest software and firmware available for my Airport Extreme Base Station, RealPlayer will not play streaming video when my iMac is online via my Airport Extreme Base Station.
(The configuration is iMac (non-wireless) --> Ethernet cable --> Airport Extreme Base Station --> DSL modem.
Note that with that configuration I can browse the internet and play audio through RealPlayer - even though I cannot play streaming video.
In contrast, when my iMac is connected directly to my DSL modem via an Ethernet cable, then I have no trouble playing streaming video in RealPlayer.
HERE'S THE "WORK AROUND" SOLUTION I'M USING
In RealPlayer/Preferences/Transport, I selected to use HTTP transport exclusively.
Here's where to find details of that solution in RealPlayer's OnLine Help:
In RealPlayer's Help menu, choose RealPlayer Online Help. Scroll down the left side of RealPlayer's help window to find the section Troubleshooting -> Network/Connectivity -> Wireless Issues.
CREDIT FOR PUBLICISING THE "WORK AROUND" SOLUTION IN APPLE DISCUSSIONS
I found the aforementioned "work around" solution in a posting in this forum by Greg Robbins on Sep 2, 2005.
The topic in which I found that posting has been archived - replies are not allowed.
I am posting this topic to clarify the deficiency in Airport Extreme, and to help keep this solution available for the Mac community.

I should not have started this thread as a "question".

Video Conversion Software for Mac

Hi Guys,
Can anyone recommend a good powerful package for converting various video formats for Mac?
Thanks in advance!

Keep the PC.
Compressor is an encoder, not necessarily a universal transcoder. Look for products by Sorenson, Telestream and Autodesk. Spendy.
You're not going to be happy with Quicktime's remarkable limitations and the lack of third party support for all of those different formats and codecs. Hundreds of codecs were never written for QT.
Use your PC to wrangle the clips into a common format and then port the file to your Macintosh for editing in FCP.

Is Final Cut Pro the only software that can open video .MXF files for Macs?

Hello,
Many thanks in advance for your attention.
Trying to find software that will edit .MXF Video Files to work with Mac.
As the edit is simple, prefer iMovie, but happy if the Conversion software only works with FCExpress (or even FCPro if that is the only alternative).
1. If it matters, .MXF (Material Exchange Format) Video files came from shooting on a Panasonic 500 P2. Originally downloaded onto a Windows system, using Adobe Premiere.
2. I just want to see and convert some of the shots I did for my Reel, etc., but I have a Mac.
3. I have iMovie HD, iMovie 09, and FCExpress (which I don't know how to use that well).
4. When I attach an External HD with backup files of all the footage shot, they show up named as .MXF files. They appear as VLC files (VLC icon), but the suffix is .MXF.
5. When I try to play them as VLC files, they won't play. It seems they start to play, but then the VLC software quits.
6. So I have tried downloading some software on the Internet that Google says converts .MXF files.
I tried: iSkysoft Video Converter, AVCWare Mac Video Converter, MPEG Streamclip, and a couple others. They all seem to have basically the same conversion setups, but when I click to pick one .MXF file, none of them recognize it. (The file in my Browse window is greyed out).
7. MoyaVideo Converter for Mac recognizes the .MXF file, but when I hit the "conversion" button - I tried a couple different settings, all it seems to convert is the first frame. Even if the .MXF file says a clip is 123MB or 43 seconds long, etc.
8. I can't even watch the clip in Preview. Press Play and it is just the first frame.
9. I have read elsewhere in these forums, some people touting conversion software from a company in Germany - mfxformac. I am fine with paying for conversion software, but $500?
10. And I have read elsewhere that only Final Cut Pro has a codec that will open .MXF files. If this is so, why do the above companies claim to have software that opens .MXF files for Mac?
11. Isn't there a further problem if I can't even see the video using VLC? Or is that because I am using Mac and need FCPro with the right codec?
Anyone's help would be greatly appreciated.

MXF files from P2 can only be imported using FCP. iMovie can't, nor FCE...if you are talking about APPLE software. Avid deals with MXF files natively. But FCP will ONLY import them if the entire P2 card structure is intact. Please tell me that you have the entire P2 card backups. If not, then it won't work. If you do...then here is the process for importing into FCP:
P2 Workflow with FCP 6
3. I have iMovie HD, iMovie 09, and FCExpress (which I don't know how to use that well).
Then you need someone to provide you with QT files of this footage. None of them work with P2.
NONE of the converters you listed will work... Sorry.
9. I have read elsewhere in these forums, some people touting conversion software from a company in Germany - mfxformac. I am fine with paying for conversion software, but $500?
That software is to get it to work with Final CUt Pro natively. What it doesn't do is convert the footage to QTs. There is also Raylight and Calibrated...but again, they are for FCP.
P2 is a professional format, and to use it you need professional software. iMovie won't work...nor will FCE. If you need to work with it in those formats, you need to have someone import the files and convert them to AIC (Apple Intermediate Codec).
HD Log might work...but not sure what QT format it converts to. A demo is available.

Streaming video using Frontpage 2003 and Quicktime .mov files

What is the proper way to stream video files. I created a .mov file using iLife and I use Frontpage 2003 to upload to my website.
I read in Microsft's official book on FrontPage2003 that all I had to do was to insert a movie file into a web page, just like inserting a picture. I was also told that I do not have to have the file on a streaming server, I could just keep it on the regular web site.
The file does download to the browser, but it does not start the video playing.
Do I need to do something elese? Or do I have to have the file on a streaming server.
Thanks
George

"Streaming" QT files requires Streaming Server software.
Your files probably just "download" via http protocols.
And, since the recent update to Internet Explorer for PC's, the page code syntax has changed from that used in your FrontPage files.
Your "page code" tells the plug-in what to do with your file. If you're directly linking to QT content then it is bypassing the plug-in and your entire file must download before playback can begin.
Some links for you:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61011
Explains the structure needed for embedded files.
And now, the new news from Microsoft regarding Internet Explorer:
http://developer.apple.com/internet/ieembedprep.html
You need to change the "tags" to include autoplay="true" (and a few extra tags for the new M$ update).

Problem importing videos using Photos for Mac

I just install photos for mac, everything seems ok since I moved iphoto library to new photos library.
But there is one problem, I can not import videos from my iphone, every new photo was imported but not a single video.
The application said the format file is unrecognizable file type.
I am using macbook air with Mac OS X Yosemite ver 10.10.3 also iphone 4s and iphone 5, each idevice using latest ios.
Thank you in advance

iPhoto did not support video syncing over iCloud. The new Photos app does. If you synced, or transferred your videos to iTunes, they should have migrated yo Photos. Enable Sidebar in the View menu, then check the Videos special Album.
Your old iPhoto app and iPhoto Library remain on your drive and work as before. The iZphotolsb is in your Applications folder.

What is best basic video editing app for Mac

I'm looking for a video editing application for the mac. I only require something basic, as in being able to crop out unwanted footage and join multiple movie files then export to MP4 format.
I don't need to add audio, titiles or make colour adjustments etc.
Tried iMovie but not a fan.

It sounds like the real need here is for an online collaboration solution, not necessarily building a website from scratch. It would be best to find a service that already does what you want, have a multi-user discussion board that supports multiple groups. Blackboard Learn looks like it integrates grading, evaluations, tests, multimedia, etc., so if the actual scope of your project is like that, maybe Blackboard Learn is the way to go. But is it too much?
If you are merely looking for a space where groups of students can merely discuss privately and not much else, you could conceivably go with something like Facebook Groups, Google+ Communities, etc. These are already coded and tested across multiple platforms and reinforced for security.
You could simply "get a website program" like iWeb or RapidWeaver, but the serious disadvantage of these programs is that you have to build it from nothing. You code the logins, you code the discussion group architecture, you make it work with laptops, tablets, and phones, you code it against hackers and mischievous students. Unless you can handle that (and maybe you did back with iWeb), it might be better to go with a ready-made "groupware" solution that is already tested and robust.

Flash for Mac "Quicktime Video" format question

I used Mac to create a video in Flash 8.0. When I export the
clip, i used "Quicktime Video" format (not the "Quicktime" option).
But when I play the file in Windows, I couldn't get it to open or
convert to other formats such as .AVI. Is there a codec for
"Quicktime Video" to work under windows XP? Please help.
Thanks.

Hi s2foster2, well I am certainly willing to try to help you, just don't know if I can be much help because I am not very
familiar with Mac. I was able to help a couple of people but that was due to them being able to send me screenshots.
I understand Flash Player but where programs, add ons, ActiveX Controls, even where the Flash files are located I don't know. I do know Mac has a Library:-)
Some new information has come to light tonight however, by one of our most helpful people on the forum. This was about
the 3rd party content, etc.
I looked at your FF add ons and you have the SWF and it's correct. Do you know where the Flash files are and could you
post back all of the Flash files with version numbers? That will tell me if Flash Player is installed with the correct files.
We can have a go at this if you want. I can tell you what info I need as long as you know where to find it, because I don't.
Let me know,
thanks,
eidnolb
