Suggestion: Youtube Widget + Internet Browser

Alright, i did not see a place to suggest content to the widgets menu. I recently got into using it. It would be quite awesome if we could browse and watch Youtube videos on our TVs via our Set Top Boxs.
Now, i can solve this problem right now by hooking up my PS3s internet connection (also Verizon, we have Triple Play), and using the PS3 browser, however, it would be much easier if we could access Youtube via the Widgets.
I always find myself falling asleep while watching TV (helps me sleep better after a good show.). It would be great if i could just use my remote and the on screen type pad to browse youtube or even the WWW as a whole on the TV.
I think you guys could draw in more customers that way also.
I hope this is the right place to post this.

Sounds like a good idea to me.
the only problem I see with that is that the STB's have VERY limited memory and there is no way for them to handle a browser. Most of these boxes only have 32Mb of ram or less. Not enough to handle a www browser or to stream online videos in that way.
Good Idea, but I dont think it would be technically feasible with the current equipment.
Yes there are hardware limitations with the STB. I wish they could make a DVR with a good CPU and one of the new 4 tuner cards that are coming out. I to would have liked to see the USB port enabled for keyboard use on the DVR. But I have PC and Tivo next to my TV now. Works great. Once the Cable Card tuners come out with the 4 tuners I think I will buy one and perhaps move the Tivo upstairs.

I use firefox - Is there any way to make it so my internet browser only remembers the MAIN site? -- EG: Only Youtube.co.uk instead of Youtube.co.uk/VIDEO ect

Is this to reduce the clutter of suggestions on the address bar, or for some other reason?
You can change the address bar drop-down so it only suggest bookmarked sites instead of everything in your history. This article describes how to make that change: [[Awesome Bar - Find your bookmarks, history and tabs when you type in the address bar]] (see the section "How can I control what results the location bar shows me?").
Am I on the right track?
(I'm avoiding the really hard question of how to selectively cull your history. I can't think of a way to do that.)

Lightbox widget works properly on dreamweaver but not on internet browser

Hi, I am using Dreamweaver CS5 & I used lightbox gallery widget through insert widget on insert panel menu. I edited the image source so everything seems working fine when I preview it on live button (local view). but when i try to view it on internet browser, it only shows the picture and when I click on the photo, it will come out at the very end of the page instaed of just zooming in & make the background darker. Here's the link of my webpage that I am talking about. http://www.thefamily-connect.com/Pages/Tina%20&%20mike%20photos.html

How do I turn off suggested videos using the YouTube widget?

That's not currently an option in the Muse youtube widget.
We'll add support for that option in a future release of Muse.

YouTube widget not working in F12 preview

Hi all,
I am having some issues with the YouTube widget. Where previously it has worked in the F12 preview, it now does not. It works after publishing, but this is frustrating because I need to do a lot of fine tuning.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Mike

The best way to test You Tube (and Web Object) interactions are from a web server. I use XAMPP, it is very easy to set up. During testng, I just publish to that webserver's folder directly and check it on the browser.

YouTube Widget not displaying video in Preview

Dear All,
I've embedded my YouTube share code within the YouTube widget, and the message comes up: "unable to generate thumbnail". When I got to a live preview of the page/site, the YouTube play box comes up, but says: "an error occurred, please try again later." I'm working with the latest update on Muse on an iMac 10.10.3 with Java script turned on and the latest Adobe Flash player installed. I've read all of the bug reports on the YouTube widget, but they were all over six months old and I assumed the bugs should have been fixed with the latest Muse updates. Any suggestions as to why the widget isn't working and how to work around it? Nothing crashes, but it just isn't bringing up the video.
Thanks.A

Dear All,
I'll answer my own question after a chat session with Adobe support. When you paste in your video ID from your YouTube share box, don't enter the https://youtu.be/ characters -- just enter your video ID characters that follow after. After entering the ID correctly, the YouTube preview opened up without problems in my "Preview Site in Browser screen". Such a little thing to waste so much time over, so I'm posting it for everyone in the future to see and learn from! I was used to just copying and pasting the entire url, but not so here! Good Luck to All!

Internet browsing ludicrously slow after upgrading to Mavericks

Hi All,
I wonder if someone could possibly offer some suggestions please.
Everything was fine and running sweetly on ML.
After upgrading to Mavericks, Internet browsing has become ridiculously slow.
Safari, Chrome and Firefox all exhibit the same problems.
Spotlight isn't indexing, and nothing else is 'hogging' any resources.
There are no issues with my routher or modem ad my WindozePC works just fine.
I have seen posts by people recommending clearing the Cache and Preferences files.
Within these folders though, are settings I don't want to lose. (reg info for software etc.)
Due to geographical restrictions, a trip to the Genuis Bar isn't an option.
Could someone please offer some advice?
Many thanks in advance.

Hold down the Option key while emptying the Trash.
As for your Mac running slower... make sure there's enough free disk space.
Click your Apple menu icon top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click About This Mac > More Info > Storage
Make sure there's at least 15% free disk space.

Macbook (OSX 10.5.8) won't load facebook, youtube on any browser

As the title says, my macbook has stopped loading Facebook and Youtube on any browser (chrome, safari, firefox). It's been about 2 weeks and I've tried clearing cache and repairing the disk. All other websites work without a problem.
Any suggestions?

OK, For the cookies you need to go into the setting on your browser and make sure that cookies are allowed. You also may need to make sure that cookies are not being blocked for facebook. Should be in the same area, would probably be on a blacklist.
As far as the DNS settings go.
Go into your Network preferences
select the method that you are connecting with from the list on the left
click in the DNS Server field and enter 8.8.8.8 or 8.8.4.4 (those are public DNS servers from google)
Click apply
Try to go to www.facebook.com If it doesn't work, try restarting your browser.

How do you reinstall firefox on Linux without any internet browser? My boyfriend just did this and I'm trying to help him get it back.

Firefox was playing up so he deleted it with the idea of re-installing it and obviously didn't think ahead. Now he has no internet browser, so he has no way of re-installing firefox. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Download installer for Linux first from connected pc
* getfirefox.com
copy it to offline pc via any flash drive, or cd or other storage device, then install

Internet Browser Not Working despite re-sending service book...

Can someone please help?
The web browser is not working on my Pearl.
I am with O2 and have been in the O2 shop for an hour today and on the phone to various people at customer services and still no joy on my Blackberry problem.
The internet browser is not working. My e-mail has been set up and i can recieve mails only, but not send them. The error code: YOU DO NOT HAVE ANY BROWSER CONFIG SERVICE BOOK ENTRIES, or when I try and send an e-mail, NO MESSAGE SERVICE CONFIG appears, despite re-sending service book codes, plus also turning my phone off, and taking the battery off several times whilst in the O2 shop and then at home when on the phone to customer services.
The people at my network are stumped, and so am I!
Please, any solutions?

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
Even though two steps are redundant, I suggest the following steps (in order, waiting for success of each before proceeding to the next):
1) Register HRT
Homescreen > Options > Advanced Options > Host Routing Table > (it does not matter which line is current) > Register Now
2) Resend Service Books
KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
3) Batt Pull Reboot
Anytime random strange behavior or sluggishness creeps in, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Hopefully that will get things going again for you! If not, then it sadly remains up to your carrier to resolve as they are the ones who deliver your services to you...
Good luck and let us know!

YouTube widget making text shift

I have a very simple page with a text box that has words and links and I often like to add a youtube video above one of the links. When I do this, the text shifts up in the browser when it loads despite it looking fine in iWeb. Is there a way to prevent this from happening? If I rarely had to do this, I would adjust accordingly and move on, but I do this quite often and it takes a lot of unnecessary time to keep moving the widget and uploading multiple times until it looks right in the major browsers.
Chrome & Safari seem to shift the text an equal amount. Firefox is slightly different.
Is there a way to put the youtube widget inside the text box instead of on top of it?

You can turn the text box into an image by adding a drop shadow with 5% opacity. That shouldn't shift with the widget. But the text won't be available to search engines.

YouTube Widget

I have just been updated with the latest version of Muse CC and can confirm that the YouTube widget does not work but the Vimeo widget does. With the YouTube widget you simply get the logo and no controls and it will not connect to the video when you change the ID for for the targeted video

It will also load and play the video when used via Preview Page in Browser or Preview Site in Browser. The logo appears only in Design view and the built-in Muse Preview.
Google changed their video player in a way that's exposed a crashing bug within Muse (or more accurately, Adobe AIR). Unfortunately the right fix involves a major architectural change in how Muse generates the proxy image displayed in Design view and in how Muse provides the built-in Preview. To provide a quicker "fix" for the crash, we've made this change to the widget.
You should see the YouTube widget fully operational again in the next major update to Muse, which is due out later this quarter (Q2).

Youtube widget says url is invalid

Hi, I have never used iWeb widgets before. I am trying to use a youtube widget on one of my pages (using iWeb 3.0.4). When I copy my youtube page's URL iWeb says "The YouTube URL you entered is invalid". The URL works fine on the internet. Anyone know what is going on?
thanks,

Playbook Internet browser not working

Hi guys,
I need a little help here. I bought my PB two days ago.
It works fine the first day but I can't get into the internet browser the next day.
The browser would just shut itself down whenever I tried to open it.
I reboot couple of times but still no fix. Hard reset (volume +,- and power) and still didn't work. I ended up wiping the whole data and It still didn't work.
The internet browser keeps shutting itself whenever I open it.
Is there anything else I can do?
I'm about to return the PB but I'm trying to find ways to fix this before i do.
my OS is (1.0.8.6067)
Everything else works (youtube, app world, etc) but only Internet browser wouldn't open.
Thanks in advance.

you can recycle the router, and check again other wise backup your data and do a security wipe.
