Trouble viewing online video with Pismo

I am having trouble viewing video online. But not all video. For instance, I can view clips on YouTube without a problem, but clips that play on CNN.com or NBC.com (i.e.) stutter and do not flow smoothly.
Does anyone else have this problem? Is there a solution?

If you have not installed Flip4Mac, a free upgrade to support .wmv formats, you should do so.
That is a well know problem. It is caused by the processor-intensive decoding required by some video formats.
The solution is to upgrade your PowerBook to a newer old Mac with a G4 or better that includes faster and more advanced numeric processing.
If your videos appear in a player with controls, waiting for the download to complete before allowing the movie to play improves the situation. In QuickTime Player, you can "step" through ALL the frames as fast as possible (but with no sound) by using the right-arrow key. This will show you what you missed when it jumped frames to keep up.

Trouble viewing online videos (streaming issue?)

Hello. I'm having trouble watching online videos. Video podcasts downloaded in iTunes are fine, but if for instance I want to watch a TV show online or a video clip from a news website, the picture is choppy and the sound breaks up. It's as if it isn't streaming properly (if that is the correct term). I have an original Macbook (2006), OSX10.4.11, 2 GHz Intel, 1 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM if that helps anyone. My husband has the same computer, purchased at the same time, only his was the model with more memory (not sure how much at the moment). His works fine, though.
Also, not sure if this is related, but my computer has a tendency to spin (or make the noise as if it is spinning) randomly - sometimes for long periods of time.
Please any advice on how to solve this issue would be greatly appreciated.

I am moving this question to another area. I see I posted it under Optical Drive

Trouble viewing streaming video with Quicktime

This is a problem I have no encountered before, and I am hoping someone has an idea, because I'm fresh out.
A user has to take a class that involves her logging into a webiste with her own unique ID, and watching a video before it will allow her to take a test. It is a quicktime streaming video. When she attempts to watch the video, all she gets is a large quicktime symbol with a bar going back and forth under it, as though it were loading, but it never loads. Here comes the odd part. We had another user log into the website ont the same computer and she was able to watch the video just fine. We then had the original user try to watch on a different computer, and she was still not able to watch, though another user was able to watch the video with their own login on that computer as well. We believe it is a problem with her account on that website, but I am just curious if quicktime has any quirks that might cause this? Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!

I cannot imagine that the problem is due to QuickTime or any other fault on the computer. If it were, it's highly likely that all users logging in from that same computer would have the same problem, and the problem would not be moving with that user to other computers.
I think it's almost certainly something amiss with your user's account on your server.
Regards.

Mac/Browser crashes when viewing online videos (any browser)

Hi,
I've had this problem for a little while, and I'm not sure what exactly it is. Sometimes when I view a video online, whether it's Flash or Silverlight, Hulu or Netflix, the video will crash. Sometimes it's just the video, other times it's the browser, and other time it's my Mac. I've tried this on Chrome, Firefox and Safari, and it happens on all three. I thought it might be a video card issue, but I can play that are on a drive fine, and it doesn't happen when I'm editing video with Adobe Premiere.
Any suggestions?

Viewing online videos

I am now unable to view youtube or linked online videos. It may be a consequence of my changing settings but I can not identify any as the problem

Try this first and see if it helps. if it doesn't post back with whatever settings you changed.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

VIEWING ONLINE TV WITH IPHONE

My girl just bought a 3G. She is from Vietnam and when on her computer, watches online TV from sites like http://vietnamlive.tv (Vietnamese programing).
When we view this site on the iPhone, the programs do not play. I am not sure if we need a player download of some kind (Quicktime, Flash or Other).
Comments?

You currently have a few options for viewing video on the iPhone, but unfortunately not from the site you want. The Safari browser on the iPhone does not support Flash, so you have to use an application to view video. Currently you can view video with the YouTube, Joost, and Orb applications. YouTube and Joost play video from their respective web sites. YouTube will work over both cellular data networks (Edge/3G) and WiFi. Joost requires WiFi. Orb will work over either network but requires a streaming PC server be configured (your home PC with a video tuner card and the Orb server software running). Hopefully soon Sling will release an iPhone SlingPlayer which will allow Slingbox video streams to also play on the iPhone, but no word on when that will be available. Hope this info helps.

Trouble Viewing 3D PDF with Windows XP after installing Adobe Reader X

Hi,
I have updated my Adobe Reader X last week ( April 2012 ) and since then I am having trouble viewing 3D PDF on my web browser, both IE 8 and Firefox. I am using Windows XP.
The warning message I got are shown as follow:
"Some features have been disabled to avoid potential security risks. Only enable these features if you trust this host: (and the hosting website of the 3D PDF goes here)"
Adobe Reader X will allow me to view the 3D model when I select "Trust this host one time only", but it does nothing if I choose to "Trust this host always".
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
Peter H.

Hi Ankit,
Here is an example: http://www.catalogds.com/db/service?domain=newport&command=showProduct&category=root&produ ct=sl51bm
Just click on the "View 3D Model" button and it will bring up another window/tab with a 3D PDF.
I will try changing the setting in the Trust Manager panel when my Windows XP computer is available later today.
Thank you.
Peter

Problem viewing video, something about an ad blocker. I had no trouble viewing streaming video until I downloaded firefox 4

I do not have any trouble watching streaming video on the Netflix website, but all other streaming video such as on a tv network or on IMDB.com comes back unavailable or blocked by an ad blocker. The only change to my computer I have done is upgrade my Mazilla Firefox browser. Something downloaded with it maybe that is blocking streaming transmissions. I need to know how to disable or bypass the problem.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

The missing apps could have been done by setting the Restrictions that can hid those apps. If the backup was made with those retrictions set the the Restrictions are also restored.
Thus, if you get it to work restore to factory settings/new iPod, not from backup

How to view online video (eg YouTube) on Power PC G4

I gave my old 17" power pc G4 laptop to my mother a few months ago when I upgraded mine. Its pre intel and running 10.4.11
Unfortunately the flash plug in currently running is too old for a bunch of online video services. Is there any way to update or solve this?
I've tried downloading older versions from Adobe archives but it doesn't seem to work for me.
My mother doesn't need a new computer, she's really happy with the old 17" Power PC, but would ideally like to get these video capabilities up and running if possible.
All help greatly appreciated!

Flash Player version 10.1.102.64 is the last version available to PPC Mac users. However, this Flash version won't work for many videos on Facebook, YouTube and other sites. Adobe's latest version, 10.2.x or later, is only for Intel Macs. Adobe will not provide a newer Flash version for PPC Macs.
The message requesting that you download Adobe Flash Player takes you to Flash Player requiring an Intel processor. Doesn't work on a PowerPC processor. I found a hack, installed it & it works with Firefox, TenFourFox & Safari.
Download this http://www.steelbin.com/FPforFBPPC.zip to your desktop, unzip it, and replace the current Flash Player plug-in which is in your main/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, (not the user Library). Save the old one just in case this one doesn't work.

MacBook Pro Freezes When Viewing Any Video with new iTunes

I, too, am having problems with the latest iTunes update. My MacBook Pro freezes completely. Total lock-up. This happens when trying to view any video, including video podcasts. I have to hold down the power button for several seconds to get my laptop to turn off. Any other MBP users experiencing this?

Hi there, I have the same problem as you guys, everything was fine before iTunes 7.6 or iTunes 7.6.1 I tried both, before those updates I could watch any video in iTunes without any issue, after that when I play a video, a random video my Macbook freeze totally, sometimes comes alive but 90% of the cases I have to make a hard shutdown (press and hold the power button). I can't believe this kind of bugs in a software that is so mature. Help please!

Trouble viewing Internet video - slow and stuttering

I have trouble viewing video from the Internet. The video stops frequently. Help

You using wifi, 3G? Either way, not uncommon. You need a strong signal from both. If it is lagging it is due to poor strength, or latency issues relating to the signal.
