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

i am having trouble with downloading videos from my Sony HDR-XR160 video camera. iMovie doesnt open up when i connect the camcorder. any suggesions?

Looking up your camera online, I found it is capable of 1920 x 1080 Full HD 60p Recording. It's the 60p (60 frames per second Progressive) that's the problem I think. iMovie '11 will do 60i (Interlaced). You might need to convert it from the format the camera currently uses into another format to get it into iMovie. Read more about it on this link here: How to import 60p footage From that message thread comes the recommendation to use ClipWrap to convert the camera's video clips now that they are in 60p:

Use ClipWrap to rewrap to QuickTime. Import the files. Edit in either 59.94 or 29.97. The latter if you want to use the high frame rate for slomo

Trouble with HD videos on Satellite M70

HI,
I recently bought a M70-208. It seems that I experience trouble with HD video both with VLC and WMP. For example, while playing the demo video of "HDtoGo", the flow is very slow. Other non Toshiba notebook that I'm using for my job is playing this video smoothly, despite its lower configuration.
I tried different combination of Energy management, but it still the same. I can't understand what's going on.
Apart from that, this notebook makes me happy (6900 point at 3D mark05).
Thanks for helping me.

Hi
Maybe is my English not so good but what you mean under flow? Is there any kind of bucking while video plays?
Maybe some application in background occupied the CPU and because of that the video doesnt run well. Try to check it.
Anyway, as you said this unit has very good value on graphic test. Friend of mine has M70-257.
Bye

Having trouble with the video function..

I just purchased the 60GB ipod photo. I'm transferring music files easily. However, I'm having trouble with the video function. I've loaded Itunes 6, reloaded the original setup disk, and have loaded the latest updates for the unit. I can download movies from the itunes store and save them to my library, but I cant seem to transfer the video files to the ipod. Ive reinstalled itunes and the update 6 with no success. After syncing the ipod it only shows the music files even after all that Ive tried. Additionally, there is no evidence of the video function on the main menu after the update attempts. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong? I'm eager to get past this problem so that I can start tranfering personal movies and video files.

You Have an iPod Photo, You do NOT have a 5th Generation Video iPod. Get it? You need the 5G model to play video.
If the salesman told you it was the 5G model he lied, was ignorant or both. If video is important or if thats what you thought you were getting you will need to return your 4G iPod photo for new iPod.
Rotsa Ruck!

Trouble with large videos

I'm wondering if anyone has had any trouble with large videos in their stacks? We are using a clip that weighs in at about 311 MB and my art director is reporting some trouble getting it into InDesign.
A shorter clip weighing in at 170 MB is working just fine.
Any ideas?

That is a pretty small file for being 7 hours long.
Have you tried using interpolation and converting the hours, seconds and frames into all seconds or does that defeat the object of the composition? I have a bunch of movies taken with the same camera and some do not provide a timecode. Has been an issue for me for a while. In X.6.+ even apple created comps cause the finder and QC to crash.

Trouble with ichat video

I dont know if this is any where else in the forum but i am haveing trouble getting a video chat to work. The person im trying to chat with has a macbook as well. at first we had to try a few times to get it to work and then we did. when we got back on after ending our first one 10 mins ago we couldnt get it to work.
Why would this happen if we had already gotten it to work? it says that it failed to connect because i didnt respond although i clicked accept. when i would do that it would say connecting video with _ and then give an error note after a few seconds.
If anyone could help that would be great

Hi
First have you set the Quicktime streaming setting, goto sys prefs/quicktime/streaming/streaming speed, set to 1.5mbps(dont use automatic)
In ichats prefs click on video and change bandwidth limit to NONE.
Restart iChat.

Trouble with Playing Video Files

I have a new macbook pro and I am having trouble playing video files. It seems like it is having trouble with the size of the file. I need to get this figured out because I will be doing a lot of work with video including using final cut to edit. Any suggestions for me to speed up video play?

Any suggestions for me to speed up video play?
Max out your ram.
It seems like it is having trouble with the size of the file.
Please clarify.
Are the videos home made, downloaded from the net, browser videos, streaming videos, etc.

Having Trouble With 25fps Video in CS4

Whenever I try to play something recording in a PAL format (1080p25 to be precise). I've had sure the preset is set on 1080p25 and I have no trouble playing the video on programs that aren’t Adobe Premiere. When I try to play it in Premiere it might stick on one frame for a few seconds, then show about 1 frame every 3 seconds, then maybe stop for another 7 seconds.
Anything that’s in a NTSC framerate plays fine, but the only HD camera I have only records in 25p or 50i, so using 29.97fps isn’t an option. What’s going on here and what am I doing wrong?

The camera is a Canon Legria HFM31. Not sure about the PC specs, it's a laptop my school provided. What do you need to know?
Okay, I tried the same footage with (the godawful) Windows Live Movie Maker, and it's struggles to play the video for the first 10 seconds but after that I get a smooth frame rate and can pause, play, skip ahead, etc without any issues.
I tried with an interlaced video, and its fine in Adobe Premiere! What's going on here? Does Adobe just not like PAL prog scan videos?

Trouble with online gaming

Hi,
I recently got BT Infinity installed and now I'm having trouble with the Playstation Network (PSN). I get a couple of games of multiplayer and then get kicked out. This happens every 15 - 20 minutes. I get the error code 8002AD23 or 8002AD36. I don't know what they mean. This never happened with my last ISP and it's getting pretty frustrating. Has anyone else experienced this problem and was there any solution. Everything else is fine

Hi, did you set a static IP before putting your PS3 into DMZ?
You probably did but just checking. Is UPnP enabled or disabled?
I had exactly the same problem, kicked me from PSN after 15 mins without fail whilst playing online. I wasn't with BT then but the company I was with were really helpful. They configured a new router for me at their base in the end and then sent it to me. Worked like a dream after that. As far as I know they just set a static IP and forwarded the ports. Have you tried port forwarding or did you just put your PS3 in DMZ via a PC in the routers settings which will open all the ports so in theory it should work.

Having problem with online video, problem only in firefox

I had an update to Firefox recently, and since then online videos (expect for some reason YouTube) are no longer working, so BBC iPlayer is not working, and other random ones you come across on various websites.
I have updated Flash, and Firefox, even reset Firefox, but still they are not working.
I get a "This content doesn't seem to be working" message, on iPlayer and similar on the other websites, its not iPlayer itself, as it works for me on IE.
Dont know what is going on with my Firefox TBH, because some of my ad-ons have stopped working recently, and its to the point where I might as well be using IE.

the plug in are not missing, they load, but the content itself does not play, just says that the content does not seem to be working, which is not the case in other browsers. Plugins are also update to date, I did mention that I updated flash, and nothing I can see which looks like it maybe causing a conflict.
Add ons are not the problem, as the reset has uninstall those anyways, and half of them were not working before hand anyways.
I have also done a system restore, which has not fixed it, as I have had an error with Office 2013.

Premier Pro CS4 having trouble with HDV video

Recently I had a video shot with an HD camera and use the HDV codec. I couldnt even open these files in Adobe Premier - until someone was able to install Final Cut Pro on the computer (assumin FCP came with some sort of codec). I just dont know how to use final cut pro - but that program seems to have no problems with this video file.
So im trying to edit it using Premier PRO - but the video is very delayed - almost in slow motion. Does anyone know what i can do? I really need to make some simple edits to this video and then render it out as an FLV - i dont have time to learn final cut pro before this needs to be done.
Any information or tips would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
amanda

Amanda,
It would appear that you are on a Mac. I'm not sure if G-Spot will run on a Mac, unless you also have some form of Windows system on it, i.e. Bootcamp, or similar. You might get info on this from the G-Spot site.
If it will not run, you'll be missing a wonderful tool. Instead, open QuickTime Player. Load one of these files. Hit Ctrl-j (Command-j on the Mac, I think) to get to the Properties screen. Look there to find out the CODEC's used in these files. Let us know about them. I do not know FCP, but it probably has a built-in Properties utility, that might yield more and better info on the files, that QT Player will. Would be worth a look and a try.
You are probably correct that it's a CODEC issue and that FCP has access to the proper one. It could well be that PrPro cannot even use that one, but until we find out what it is, we'll not know.
BTW, what make and model of camera?
Good luck,
Hunt

Issues with Online Videos?

I've recently installed Adobe Flash Player and Java update and now all my online videos regardless (CNET, YOUTUBE, ETC), requires that you click on the Video Screen , FLASH or HTML5 for the video to start... I can't find any online reference to correct this... I've checked my flash and java settings, restored to factory, no change...
Please any help is greatly appreciated....

There are three kinds of updates:
security updates
bug fixes
new functionality
2 and 3 are usually scheduled updates, 1 may be released out of schedule.
Scheduled updates are about 8 per year, out-of-schedules are unpredictable.

Problem with online video

My macbook suddenly can't buffer the whole online video.
I can only watch for 4 minutes and it stopped. It's like there's a limitation on the video that can be buffered. Both on Safari and Firefox.

Look in the Safari menu.
Look for utilities like onyx or cocktail that will empty other caches. Lots of advice about them posted here.
You can look at your hard drive. Highlight it and hit command + i.

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.
