Unable to play recorded video using BB multimedia api in other platform

Hi all,
I am new to Blackberry application development. The application I am developing it is required to record a video using multimedia api.
I am using
video encoding : MPEG-4
audio encoding : AMR
res : 320 x 240
Device using Curve 8250
It is the same encoding combination BB curve use to record a video from default recorder.
_player = Manager
.createPlayer("capture://video?encoding=video/3gpp&width=320&height=240&fps=12&video_codec=MPEG-4&audio_codec=AMR");
After recording it from my application I am able to play the video in vlc even in BB devices. But when I am trying toplay in android,J2ME and iPhone platform. It is unable to play the video..Can anybody help me out in this regard.
I am really in trouble. I need your help .
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Angan

In my experience if windows media player plays it(the mpeg4), it will not be compatiable with quicktime. At least if you do not go installing the codecs to read ISO mpeg 4 (.mp4 is the standard extension that quicktime puts on the files). Another thing to check is if you are creating ISO compliant files. The mpeg4s that windows media reads by default are not ISO compliant. You also need to keep in mind that Quicktime is a simple profile mp4 and main profile mp4 player (although not all b frames are compatable with quicktime). See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quicktime for a basic overview of the profile support. I suggest that you try playing the media with free softwares such as vlc http://www.videolan.org/vlc/ and mplayer http://www.mplayerhq.hu/design7/news.html and check that the format and codecs are correct. Although they will play non standard files they will list the codecs in use (make sure that you are using ISO compliant standards as you can put more than MPEG 4 in mp4).

Unable to play youtube videos - using proxy (squid)

Youtube videos do not play in my configuration. Most youtube content appears, but attempting to play a video results in a popup message "This movie could not be played". Sorry for the length of the post, but I'm trying to get enough documentation down here to save some time for the next person who runs into this.
My basic network configuration is:
ipod->wireless-router->squid-proxy->pix->internet
*I am analyzing logfiles from the proxy and the pix, and I have network traces from the proxy.
There are 2 issues so far with proxy access from the youtube application on the fw v2.2 ipod touch. After hitting the first issue, I made a call to tech support who pointed me to an older apple discussion thread about a similar issue which indicated the problem could be fixed by "reconfiguring the proxy server", but no details were given in that discussion thread about exactly what needed to be 'reconfigured'. I believe have figured out what was going wrong, and I document it as issue 1 below in case anyone else runs into it.
Issue 1 (which I managed to get solved) is that the youtube application sends a 'Host:' header pointing to gdata.youtube.com, but the requested url is actually iphone-wu.apple.com. Squid rewrites the 'host' header to iphone-wu.apple.com, and the target server fails the request with a 404. A solution (for squid) is to use a redirector to rewrite these url's to actually go to gdata.youtube.com and to set the 'urlrewrite_hostheader off' value.
Unfortunately, resolving issue #1 was not sufficient to get youtube off the launch pad:
Issue 2 (which seems unsolveable at the moment) is that the youtube application is ignoring proxy settings for some of its content requests. In addition to the proxy requirement, I have egress firewalling and logging set up. I observe the youtube application asking for many url's via the proxy and then I observe the egress firewall deny an attempt at a direct access to port 80 on an external server BYPASSING the proxy settings. Without opening up the egress firewall rules (and thereby disable requirement for a proxy), this makes the youtube application inoperative.
If anyone has some insight on how I can get this working, I'd appreciate it. I will attempt another support call tomorrow with my logfiles in hand...

Thanks for posting! -- I'm glad the info is helpful to you. There is more that I have been deliberately keeping quiet about while trying to work through a support call that was logged 27-dec-08. Without going into a lot of detail, the support call is still open, and I'm still working on getting a resolution from apple engineering. I hope that by providing this information, my support call doesn't get terminated as having been "solved" - which it most definitely has not been. It is my belief that only a firmware update will fix this.
(And as an aside ... I've spoken with three or four support reps at apple, and all have been very nice and have tried to help out! I've been quite pleased with the front end to their support org. I just really want to hear that someone has LOOKED at the code and found the error and it will be fixed in a future update!)
A work-around for the youtube and itunes applet failures is to set your squid up as a transparent proxy. That way, the network accesses that these applets make that attempt to bypass the proxy are hidden and the applets "work".
I would most certainly appreciate any further corroboration of this misbehavior -- more than one site being able to demonstrate these applets bypassing the proxy would be quite helpful.
(Note also that the lastest firmware 2.2.1 also exhibits this issue)
Thanks.

Unable to play youtube videos after OS 10.2.1.2977 update

Hi, I got an OS update two days back "10.2.1.2977". after updating, all the data in my memory card got wiped off and I am unable to play youtube videos both in browser and Supertube/fasttube apps, it's showing as "Error1: Internal" I tried rebooting but the problem is still there. Does anyone faced the same problem. Please suggest me a way to get rid of this problem. Appreciate your help

Alternatively, you can use an autoloader to reload the software.
You can download it here for the same os:
http://filefactory.com/file/7il26x7cisqd/10.2.1_B3247_Z10-3G.rar
Note that using this will also wipe all data from the phone.
How to use?
1) download it and extract it
2) connect the device to a pc
3) run the Exe file, it will automatically wipe and load the os in

Play YouTube Video Using Movie URL

InDesign CS3
Hello,
Is it possible to insert a movie that uses a URL to a video on YouTube? YouTube URL's do not contain the actual file name/type and I believe that is why I am unable to play the video - however I thought I would check and see if anyone has had success doing this.
My goal is to be able to play the YouTube video within the exported PDF.

Hi I want to broadcast recorded video using flash encoder?

Hi I want to broadcast recorded video using flash encoder, or their is any other way for broadcating recorded media files as live tv?

Hi,
You can do server side play of the recorded media file. After that once any one connects to that application, that file will be played as live. Following is the code to do this:
var streamname="stream_name.flv"; //Name of the recorded media file
application.onAppStart=function(){
          application.onNCA();
application.onConnect=function(clientObj){
          application.acceptConnection(clientObj);
          trace("***Connected : "+isConnected);
application.onNCA=function(){
          trace("onCA "+streamname);
          streamObj=Stream.get("foo"); // foo will be the live stream name
                    streamObj.onStatus = onStreamStatus;
                    trace("here "+streamname.split(".")[1]);
                    switch(streamname.split(".")[1]){
                              case "mp4":
                              case "3gp":
                              case "f4v":
                                        streamPlayName="mp4:"+streamname;
                                        break;
                              case "mp3":
                                        streamPlayName="mp3:"+streamname.split(".")[0];
                                        break;
                              case "flv":
                                        streamPlayName=streamname.split(".")[0];
                                        break;
                    trace(streamPlayName);
                    streamObj.play(streamPlayName);
function onStreamStatus(info){
          trace("Stream "+info.code);
application.onDisconnect=function(clientObj){
          application.shutdown();
Anyone connecting to above app will be able to play "foo" as livestream name.

Cannot play recorded videos on C7

Hi there,
i am playing with my new C7, despite loving the phone and the possibilities, it seems to me it has hard to go over countless bugs.
I have recorded several video with the onboard camera and none will play. I have tried High definition, normal and 3gp. I go through the onboard video player and none will play. Nothing play even after shooting them when I press the play icon. It is very annoying. The videos are working fine as they play well on my PC.
For information flash video, such as youtube works fine from the internet. But I am unable to play the video I record of my kids... VERY annoying, any ideas?

Sorry not an answer, but I have EXACTLY the same issue and impression. Help

I am unable to play youtube videos on WiFi or on my my cell network. Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks

Hi, first of all Thank you for your instant response.
Yes, I have updated to version 33, Now the problem is not as random as it was before. I found that I have absolutely no issues when I use FF for the first time after starting my computer. At this point there is no issue at all I can watch videos when both logged-in/logged-out and also they work perectly if I switch between flash and HTML5.
But as soon as I restart Firefox I cannot watch the videos at all. No matter if I am logged in/logged out, I did try HTML5 but still it didn't work. The error message was same in all the cases "An error occurred, please try again later".
We are secured by "Cyberoam" so I don't have access to proxy sites.
By the way these observations are for Windows 7.

Unable to play wmv videos on Nokia X6

Hello All,
I have Nokia X6 (S60V5) phone and I am trying to play wmv videos on it with no luck.Its Device details says that it can play wmv9
Video Playback Formats 3GPP formats (H.263), Flash Video, H.264/AVC, MPEG-4, RealVideo 7,8, WMV 9
I did encode a sample video with following config.
Resolution: 480x360
Video Bit rate : 1024K
Video Codec: wmv3 (which is WMV9)
Audio codec: wmav3
Sampling Rate: 44100
Audio bitrate: 128K
This configuration is not supprted on X6
Could anyone tell me what should be the configuration of wmv file inorder to be played on Nokia X6?
Thanks in advance,

I usually use flv or mp4 as the container and encode to:
Video:
MPEG-4 Video (mp4v)
640x360 resolution
Approx 700 to 800 kbps bitrate
29.9 fps framerate
Audio:
MPEG AAC Audio (mp4a)
stereo,
Approx 128 kbps bitrate
44.1 kHz sample rate
Although the X6 is meant to be able to play H.264 / MPEG-4 AVC (Part 10) I find it fails to play any videos using this codec at resolutions of 640x360 at any decent bitrates and framerates which can be a real pain.
I think the X6 can also playback MPEG-4 (Part 2) / H.263 but I don't normally use this particular standard.
According to
http://www.forum.nokia.com/Devices/Device_specifications/X6-00/
Compatible codecs are 3GPP formats (H.263), Flash Video, H.264/AVC, MPEG-4, RealVideo 7,8, WMV 9 with video playback frame rate of 30 fps.

Record video using built in camera?

Is there any way to record video using the built in camera on the 1.83gh macbooks, i know you can use photobooth with the newer macbooks, but on the older macbooks photobooth does not allow you this option.
Any ideas?

You need Quick Time Pro to record video. QT Player does not allow this.

Recording video using external iSight and audio using wired input

I would like to be able to record video using an external iSight camera I have from my old powerbook, but I don't want the audio to record through the internal microphone...I want it to record through a wired input coming off a mixer...is this possible?

Welcome to iMovie Discussions.
"..is this possible?.." ..I don't think so. By connecting an external FireWire iSight camera, iMovie expects both the vision and the sound to come in down the same FireWire cable.
If you need to use a separate audio input, you may be able to do it by connecting a FireWire-capable camcorder (..a tape-based miniDV or HDV camcorder which uses a FireWire connection to attach to a Mac..) and then feeding your mixer's output to the camcorder's external-mic input ..at very low volume, of course, so that you don't wreck the camcorder's input.
This entails using a camcorder which does have an external-mic (or line) input. That way, the picture from the camcorder will go straight into iMovie, as will the audio which is being fed into the camcorder ..thus both reaching iMovie via the camera's FireWire connection.

Record video using iSight camera

Understand that the image quality will not be up to what a consumer DV camera will produce.

Since i made the upgrade to mountain lion i¡m unable to make facebook video calls , i can,t see other's people webcam

since i made the upgrade to mountain lion i¡m unable to make facebook video calls , i can,t see other's people webcam

I am having this same issue on my Macbook Pro Early 2011 running Mountain Lion. I try and use Facebook video chatting as I usually would, and although the other person can see me, what I see on my end is a still picture from their webcam that is often flickering between what my own webcam is picking up, and it continuously flickers with static lines (picture an old TV getting bad signal).
Skype is also behaving strangely since I upgraded, although it's flip-flopped (Skype is not letting others see me but I can see them)
With both Skype and Facebook, audio is having no issues.

I watch YouTube videos on a regular basis - mostly with the YouTube app but also with Safari.
Some YouTube videos are supported to be viewed on a computer only or with a Flash capable device, which is becoming few and far between since Adobe no longer supports Flash on any mobile platform.
Sometimes I get this video cannot be played on this platform, but rarely.

Unable to Play facebook video

Unable to Play facebook video

All videos on Facebook are h.264 encoded so they don't need flash. Don't spread false information, iPad safari can play Facebook videos since last year. I used to play them without an issue on my iPad but I guess the latest software update screwed that up.
http://www.intomobile.com/2010/04/27/facebook-enables-ipad-friendly-video-playba ck/
The link says videos uploaded on Facebook are encoded in iPad friendly format, YouTube videos are already iPad friendly so you should be able to play most videos on Facebook on your iPad safari.
