Update on playback problems with AIR 3.5 on desktop

Adobe has received reports that desktop AIR 3.5 users of BBC iPlayer and Digital Theatre Desktop Player are no longer able to play or download video after upgrading from AIR 3.4 or earlier.  Specifically, the user will attempt to play the video and will get a black video window or will fail to successfully download videos.  Adobe is working on a permanent resolution for the issue in AIR 3.5.  In parallel, Adobe is working closely with the BBC and Digital Theatre to offer support and investigate interim resolutions.  We will publish an update as soon as we have released the fix.
In the meantime, the work-around for affected users is to migrate back to AIR 3.4.  The following link provides instructions for determining the version of AIR currently installed on your machine.  If you believe you may be experiencing a video playback problem caused by migrating to AIR 3.5, your video service should be able to tell you whether they believe going back to AIR 3.4 or earlier will resolve the problem.  If instructed to do so, the following steps here can help you uninstall your current version and locate and install a specific AIR version for installation on your Windows or Mac PC.
Please feel free to report your issue or reproducible steps here and we will alert you once a fix has been put in place.  We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience and thank you for your continued support.

Please note that I have followed the BBC's instructions to uninstall Air v3.5 and iPlayer Desktop and then install Air v3.4 and iPlayer Desktop, but contrary to what they and you say, this has made no difference - iPlayer still can't download programmes to iPlayer Desktop and it still can't find the programmes I had previously downloaded. I surmise that maybe uninstalling wasn't enough and that some fault remains that still prevents the programme from working. I am not an IT expert, so I would need more comprehensive instructions to fix this.
You may like to note that I downloaded Air v3.5 several days before iPlayer Desktop failed, and I am pretty sure that I used iPlayer Desktop in between times. After it failed, it was very reluctant to even open, let alone do anything when, after repeated instructions, it finally did open.
You may also like to note that I began to experience a ridiculous amount of buffering on radio playback straight from the BBC website before and after iPlayer Desktop failed. I don't think it can have been a broadband issue, as I could stream both TV and radio live and I could stream TV playback with no problem. Since reverting to Air v3.4, I have had no buffering. I doubt whether this is a coincidence.
I have an Acer 5745PG with Windows 7, Intel Core i3-350M, NVIDIA GeForce 310M and I use Firefox.
Don't you guys beta test stuff?

  • IPad 5.0.1 update video playback problems

    HI is anyone else having playback problems with videos on IPad 1 after 5.0.1 update???
    As in the playback not atcually working at all???

    See if any of the following Videos 'fixes' work.
    Try searching for the name of one of your videos on the iPad's spotlight search screen - swipe your first homescreen to the right, type in it's name, and if it finds it tap on it to see if it plays.
    If that doesn't work then try closing the Videos app completely : from the home screen (i.e.not with the Videos app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Videos app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    A third option if the two above don't work is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

    Java 6 you can't as Apple maintains it, and Java 7 you could if you uninstall it and Oracle provides the earlier version which they likely won't his last update fixed 37 remote exploits.
    Java broken some software here and there, all you'll have to do is wait for a update from the other parties.

  • Problems with AIR-BR1310

    Hy,
    I have problems with AIR-BR1310.
    When the bridge boot this is the sequence on LEDs indication :
    Sequence 1:  R-blinking green S-blinking green E-off I-red
    Sequence 2:   R-off , S-green, E -red, I –red
    and the sequence continue.
    I connected a laptop at console port on power injector but in hyperterminal I cannot see anything.
    I changed the power injector and the symptoms was the same.
    To function properly the correct sequence 2 for LEDs indication should be:
    Sequence 2:   R-off , S-green, E-green , I –red
    What does it mean?
    What i can do ?
    It ' s possible to resolve this issue?
    Thanks.

  • HT204490 OS X Yosemite v10.10.3 Update - I had problems with my iMac after installing the previous update and I removed that update.  Have there been problems associated with this update ?

    OS X Yosemite v10.10.3 Update - I had problems with my iMac after installing the previous update and I removed that update.  Have there been problems associated with this update ?

    I've been using it on all of my computer without any problems. Remember you won't see any positive comments here. Everyone here is complaining about a problem. If you want a good experience with any upgrade or update first make a backup from which you can boot the computer. If you are installing an update, like 10.10.3 for example, always download and install the Combo Updater - OS X Yosemite 10.10.3 Combo Update. Before you install any update or upgrade over an existing system you should do this:Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions:
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility and press the Continue button. After Disk Utility loads select the Macintosh HD entry from the the left side list.  Click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If Disk Utility reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit Disk Utility and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.

  • FileStream problem with AIR deployment

    I use FileStream to load local XML file. When I test the desktop application directly from Flex everything is ok but when I install it with AIR, the application work but the file is not loaded. Here is the code I use:
    import flash.filesystem.*;
     var applicationDirectoryPath:File = File.applicationDirectory; 
    var nativePathToApplicationDirectory:String = applicationDirectoryPath.nativePath.toString(); 
    nativePathToApplicationDirectory +=

    var file:File = new File(nativePathToApplicationDirectory); 
    var fs:FileStream = new FileStream(); 
    fs.open(file, FileMode.READ);
    var config:XML = XML(fs.readUTFBytes(fs.bytesAvailable)); 
    fs.close();
    plan.text = config.division;

    I am having the same problem as simon_lucas although my config is slightly different:
    FlashBuilder 4 with SDK 4.6, Current app is with SDK 2.5.
    Trying to update with SDK 3.2, I double-checked per Horia Olaru that I do use the application updater swc:
             <path-element>D:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Flash Builder 4.6\sdks\4.6.0 - Air 3.2\frameworks\libs\air\applicationupdater.swc</path-element>

    But I still have the 16815 error.
    If I change the update.xml to be <update xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/framework/update/description/2.5">
    instead of <update xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/framework/update/description/3.2">, I am proposed to download the new app and then I get an error 16824.

  • Problem with air 2.5 renderization

    Hi,
    I have a problem with the renderization of imagens when in the computer is instaled and air version bigger than 2.6. When oi run my app in debug i have no problem and save and jpg with the correct color tone, but when i export and install the app if i have the air 3.3 for instance the image save have a different tone that the one in debug mode, or i i install the air 2.5 in my computer the same app saves the jpg correcty , exactly the same as in debug, sample imagens:
    Image with air 2.6:
    Image with air 3.3:

  • Problems with AIR for DW extension

    Is anyone having luck with the AIR for Dreamweaver component?
    I've got it installed but I try to export an AIR project all I ever
    get is stuff like this:
    File does not exist: /Users/databell/Library/Application
    Support/Adobe/Dreamweaver
    9/Configuration/Temp/FlashElements/ImageViewer/application.xml

    I am also experiencing problems. I am running DWCS3 build
    3481, Mac OS X 10.5.4 on an Intel MacBook, and AIR 1.0 (the 1.1
    updater page still provides v. 1.0 download) according to the file
    info, and I've tried completely re-imaging my computer and cleanly
    installing DWCS3, AIR, the extension, etc.
    The problems are centered on either selecting an existing
    certificate or trying to create a new one:
    1. Select an existing cert ~ selecting a previously-created
    certificate and entering in the *correct* password still results in
    a "could not load keystore file (password may be incorrect)" error.
    The cert is located one directory above the app folder, and it
    works fine via the command-line adt tool.
    2. Create a new cert, 1st attempt ~ attempting to create a
    new cert and selecting to place it in a central project folder
    within my home directory fails. I get an "unexpected failure:
    /scott/Documents/Projects/Optimac.pfx (No such file or directory)"
    error. Look closely at that path. The actual path I selected to
    save this cert to is
    "/Volumes/data/scott/Documents/Projects/Optimac.pfx." My disk is
    partitioned and my home folder is located on the "data" partition,
    whereas my operating system and applications are located at
    "/Volumes/os." (Mac OS X 10.5 enables locating your home directory
    on separate partitions, and I have not encountered any other
    problems with this configuration since Leopard was released, up
    until now.) It looks like Dreamweaver erroneously misconstrued my
    home directory as existing on root ("/"). So...
    3. Create new cert, 2nd attempt ~ if I create the new cert at
    root ("/"), that process completes successfully, but then if I
    select it and click "Create Air file" I get an "unable to create
    temp file in output directory" error.
    As is, I cannot create an AIR app in Dreamweaver.

    for some reason I can no longer view rtsp feeds using my Nokia N8 mobile phone. I'm not sure if the latest anna update has to do with this.

  • Audio playback problem with HP mediasmart DVD player

    Hi I have just set up my computer and linked it to my tv with a HDMI lead, I have been able to toggle between my pc speakers and my tv speakers on programmes such as windows media player and other HP mediasmart programmes but when I use HP mediasmart DVD player - a DVD will allow me to change from pc speakers to HDMI but I cannot change to HDMI (TV) sound when playing a Blu-Ray disk. I have tried changing my defult to HDMI and its just not working when playing BLU-RAY disks. anyone got any ideas? i have all the latest updates (running windows 7)

    I have a ThinkPad T61p which I got one year ago. About one month ago the following problem suddenly appeared: When I want to play a DVD with WinDVD, I get the message "no valid Drive/Disc Found". When I eject and then start the DVD again, it takes about 4 minutes to start the DVD. Everything is very slow, the movie is croppy and I can often hear the laser head moving back and forward. I don't have any problems with other media like CDs or self printed DVDs with no region code and copy protection. I also have no problems with another DVD drive of the same kind (I have a DVD/CD-ROM drive). I tried to solve the problem with the troubleshooter (I have Windows XP), but nothing helped. My settings seem to be all right. Could anyone help me with this problem?

  • DVD Playback problem with H/w accel on Ti4200

    Hello folks,
    I have a problem with DVD playback using WinDVD Platinum on my MSI 128Mb GF4 Ti4200 (MS-8700). When I play a DVD with hardware acceleration enabled I get a sort of ghosting or delayed flash photography effect similar to that which gives headlights trails. This doesn't occur with the Detonator 40.72 drivers
    or MSI 41.07 drivers but occurs with
    the NVidia 41.09s, 43.00s and now 43.45 drivers under WinXP SP1. The problem only occurs with hardware acceleration enabled and has happened with both DX8.1 and 9.0. I didn't have this problem with the 41.09s under Win2k SP3.
    Does anyone else have this problem or know of a solution.
    Thanks,
    Morpheus
    System Specs:
    Athlon XP 2000+

    Asus A7V333-R
    Soundblaster Audigy Player
    Realtek 8139 based NIC
    Win XP SP1
    DirectX 9.0

    Sound is fine its just the picture that has the problem but I have narrowed it down further by downloading WinDVD Tweaker. If I disable DxVA but leave hardware decode and colour selected the problem isn't present. Therefore I suspect something has corrupted my DxVA   drivers however as I originally had 8.1 installed and then installed 9.0 in an attempt to fix this I don't think a reinstall of DX will solve the problem.
    Any ideas.
    Cheers,

  • SCCM 2012 Update Group inconsistency Problem with Red marked Updates

    Hi everybody,
    we have a big Problem with our SCCM 2012 R2 CU3 Enviroment, regarding of Update Groups which got out of sync.
    we have a SCCM Site Infastructure with one CAS and 4 Primary Sites and on every Site is the SUP Role installed.
    I don't know when this failure occours but i think it was after the CU3 Installation. The Installation itself went smooth without any Errors or Warnings.
    The Problem is as following. We have some updates in Update Groups (all of them are Core XML Updates) which are out of sync and marked red as an invalid Update on 2 Primary Sites. On the CAS Site and the 2 other Primary SItes they are marked as green (downloaded
    yes and deployed yes)
    We have no Replication issues regarding the Replication Status (everything is synchronized to 100%) and the Replication Link Analyzer does also show no Problems at all.
    I now deleted the Deployments and the SW Update Group waited until the replication was fine and created a new one and downloaded these patches on one of the Primary Sites which had shown this Failure.
    The Result was not good. It looks like before. On the CAS and 2 Primary Sites the Deplyment is shown as downloaded but on the other 2 Sites the Status is again Downloaded=no.
    Does anybody have any idea what to do now ? I checked objmgr.log and rcmctr. log but found nothing what shows me the way in the right direction.
    Thx for your time, and it would be fine if anybody can share knowledge about this failure and how to fix it.
    All other Ideas are also welcome.
    Thx a lot in advance and have a nice bug free day :-)
    Bastian

    Hi,
    Please try to manually synchronize software updates from the CAS and monitor the WSUSCtrl.log, WCM.log and wsyncmgr.log on the CAS and Primary sites.
