The videos have low fps and become TOO choppy.

Not be to do, this is irritating. Whenever I want to see a video on youtube or any other page, the video looks AWFUL in good quality. I always see the statistics and fps are too low. I have already tried to remove the acceleration hardware, but does not work, and instead, as my video card is on the blacklist, acceleration is not activated and that is causing me problems. I would like to know how to improve the amount of fps. I don't want to, at least temporarily, buying a video card.

Video decoding and rendering are very CPU intensive.  The GPU is purpose-built for this task and frees up the processor for other stuff.  In your instance, we're not able to leverage the hardware on your system, so everything is getting done on the CPU, and it's not able to process and render the stream fast enough for the video to be watchable.
You can view all the videos in the lowest available quality (this reduces the number of pixels that need to be processed), or if you're running other programs in addition to the browser, you can close those to minimize the number of CPU cycles being consumed by other things.
Aside from that, there's really not a lot you can do.  If cost is a factor, you might want to look around for a compatible video card that's 2-3 years old (like one of the name-brand nVidia/ATI cards) on eBay.  I buy a lot of old hardware for testing, and I see stuff in the $10-50 range all the time.

  • I uploaded a video from a flashdrive to my Mac and it compressed the video to lower quality and shrunk it in size. How do I get it to the original size?

    I uploaded a video from a flashdrive to my Mac and it compressed the video to lower quality and shrunk it in size. How do I get it to the original size?

    It changed the Aspect ratio of the video, as if it had been shot on a phone instead of a camera. When first looking at the footage it was in landscape aspect but when I transfered it to a memory unit to put on a different computer it uploaded it in a different ratio

  • Final rendering of video is low quality and too bright

    Here is the link to my original video clip, the video clip in the project, and the final rendered copy all on my monitor at the same time:

    Here is the text of each video when fullscreened screened:

    The picture got downsised which makes it harder to see the issue,but here is most of the it:
    The final copy is lower quality and way too bright. Noticibly too bright. The clean darks turn into rough gray, and the quality is noticibly lower as well. I have checked the "use maximum render quality" and tried exportiing in AVI and MP4, and nothing is fixing it. Any ideas?

    First of all, what type of file do you need?  If you're looking for lossless quality then I would suggest exporting a quicktime file with the Animation codec or some other lossless codec.  However, these type of files are huge and they might not play back on your desktop.  But, if you're just going to put this video on the internet when you're finished with it then I would suggest starting with one of the Youtube or Vimeo H.264 presets and modifying it to match your clip.  It still won't look as good as your original, but you can't expect miracles when working in SD and exporting to H.264, which is a very lossy codec to begin with.  If you want to try exporting to a lossless Quicktime or AVI, then change the settings so they look something like this:

  • I have iWork and Ilife, do I have to purchase the iOS for pages, numbers, and keynote too

    I am post Mobile Me and I so do not get this icloud.  I just upgraded my iphoto and my iwork is the latest version.  Do I need to purchase the ios for pages, keynote and numbers too... 

    Yes.
    The apps have to be installed on the Mac and iOS devices in order to open and moodify the documents.
    Why purchase again? iWork apps for Mac OS X are not the same as iWork apps optimized for iOS devices. Two different operating systems.

    I am a first-time iPad owner/user. I bought a relative's original iPad. I want to leave the apps on it and add my own pdfs to read. My itunes account is really for my iPod. iTunes message says that if I "Sync" the iPad will be erase, and become like my iPods. If I make a new iTunes account, would the apps be erased when I tried to use it?
    How can I just get my files onto this iPad, and still have the apps that my relative left there for me?
    Thank you.

    iPads sync to 1 computer only.
    All media and apps are tied to the Apple ID that purchased them.
    Without your relatives ID and password, you cannot update any of the Apps.
    I am pretty certain he is also violating Apples terms of service by giving you the apps.

  • I want to create an external video widget with iAd. I followed the steps and copied the Url and paste it in the Video pop-up menu in the Properties section of the inspector. When i select 'preview' the video doesn't play and the Url that i pasted is gone.

    i want to create an external video widget with iAd to use in an iBook. I followed the steps and copied the Url and paste it in the Video pop-up menu in the Properties section of the inspector. When i select 'preview' the video doesn't play and the Url that i pasted is gone.
    hope someone can help!

    May have something to do with whether or not the URL can be reached while building your widget.  I've got a video on the web. When I enter the URL into the field for the video object and click to another field,  the URL is replaced with some text indicating that it is accessing the video then updates itself to displaying just the name of the video file.
    It shows just fine in preview and I can see the full path to the video when I export the widget so it should work for you. 
    Is the video accessible from your Mac while you're laying out your widget?

    Hello, Miryam Maria. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    I see you are experiencing issues with sound on applications when playing video/audio content.  If this is the case, the first thing I would check is if the side switch is set to silent as this can cause applications to be mute.  Below I have included an article that covers adjusting the  settings for the side switch.  Also, make sure to close all applications in Multitasking and power cycle the device.  Test the sound issue after processing these steps.

  • I have new ipad2 and the iTunes have only podcasts and iTunes U options. I simply can't download music or vidoes. Please help!

    i have new ipad2 and the iTunes have only podcasts and iTunes U options. I simply can't download music or vidoes. Please help!

    Not all content types are available in all countries, and unfortunately where you are you will only have apps, podcasts, iTunes U and free books - the full list of what is available where is shown on this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3599 . As the terms of use of the stores state that you can only use your own country's store, you also can't get music or films from Apple from other country's stores.
    Are there other music and/or film purchase download sites that you can use in the UAE ? For music you can also copy your own CDs and sync them to the iPad

  • Apple should make a macBook where the screen can turn around and become touch screen, for easier use

    Apple should make a macBook where the screen can turn around and become touch screen, for easier use. especially for when i go to uni

    Why touch and swivel screens arent a good idea on a laptop:
    The so-called Gorilla arm: Gorilla arm is a term describing the tired arms users get after reaching out and touching a screen for a long time.
    Added thickness: Touch screen panels are usually thicker than non-touch ones—especially if the touch panel has an active digitizer for pen support.
    Possibly shorter battery life: Touch screens require more power. Laptop Magazine compared a couple of touch screen laptops with their non-touch counterparts (same model and size) and found that the non-touch laptops lasted over an hour longer.
    Easy to break: Swivel screens are notoriously prone to break, especially the hinge and the cable that feeds the screen from the logic board which is being constantly twisted.
    And thats what the Ipad is for.

  • My mac won't read my external harddrive's videos that I took with my Nikon.  Half the videos won't play, and those are .avi files.  WHY won't they play anymore and how can i retrieve them?

    My mac won't read my external harddrive's videos that I took with my Nikon.  Half the videos won't play, and those are .avi files.  WHY won't they play anymore and how can i retrieve them?

    What exactly is your problem? Is it, (a) your Mac doesn't read your external disk, or, (b) you can't retrieve your videos, or, (c) you can't play them, or, (d) you were able to play them at one point, but not any more.
    What version of Mac OS X are you using, what app are you trying to play your videos with, what happens when you do, and what error messages, if any, do you get?

  • The display on my screen has become too big.  I've tried adjusting the screen size and the zoom isn't set.  Can anyone help?

    I have an iMAC 7.1 running OS X  10.6.8.
    The display has become too big for the screen.  I've looked at the zoom and it is turned off.  I've tried adjusting the pixel setting (currently 1920 * 1200) to no effect.
    The bar at the top of the screen is elongated, and I can't see the time in the top right hand corner.
    This is affecting everything I lookmat, the dock in the bottom doesn't show until I bring the mouse down (hide dock is off).
    I have no idea what caused this and I can't fix it.
    Does anyone have idea what the problem is and how to fix it?
    ANy help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    No wheel, it's a magic mouse.
    Tried safe start.  No difference. 
    The dock and the icons are off the bottom of the screen. 
    I I have finder open and move the cursor to the right to show the time, I lose finder / file /edit from the overhead banner.
    Still no closer to solving it.
