Using video from another site. (not YouTube)

I am working for a parent company and would like to use a
video on my website from their website. I asked for the video and
they said they cannot give it to me but would allow me to use it if
I can figure out how to set up the source code. I have tried but
cannot figure it out on my own. Can anyone assist me or point me in
the right direction? Thanks.
Josh

Technically, it depends on the source material and how it's being broadcast.
If it's streamed on dedicated streaming servers like YouTube or Vimeo, you'll likely need a script to embed into your document.
If it's a progressive download, you need a link to the FLV and you can sometimes apply external URL to your own Flash Player. In DW, Insert Media > Flash > Progressive Download, etc... Some site owners might not appreciate your site users downloading videos from their servers. Tread carefully here.
If the source server has decent security, you might not be able to play their media from your domain. In that case, you would have to use a Flash Grabber to download their FLV files and host them on your own domain.
The simplest answer is to contact the other site owners.

Is it possible to embed video from another site in wiki?

every-time i try and add in html code to embed video in the wiki page (not podcasts) it deletes it after i save and nothing happens

Hi,
The current wiki relies on html 4:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
Embed tag is not a standard part of html 4 and is new in html 5. html 4 allows the object tag or the iframe tag to perform the external link function. Both object and iframe need to be added to the wiki whitelist for inclusion in the page html.
iframe creates a separate window that allows you to show the page with the video or rss link that you want to include on the wiki page.
object would show up as an separate window as well but has different issues depending on brower.
I have used iframe with good results as an alternative to uploading data to the wiki page.
HTH,
Harry

When ever I try to watch any video, from a link or YouTube say, using Firefox, I get a message 'An error as occurred. Please try again later'. It has been this way for some weeks. I don't have this problem using Safari or Opera.

I believe that our “Werbung problem” adds an additional second hyperlink to the pop-up window. This second link is activated whenever you trigger a saved hyperlink to a Mail.com site.
I had the same problem and eliminated it by deleting all bookmarks, hyperlinks and automatic links that take firefox to a mail.com address. So I just deleted all bookmarks I had saved for mail.com. I also changed my home page link because it also went to my email at mail.com. I then did a warm boot, opened firefox and re-saved my bookmarks and homepage to the desired addresses. Good luck.

I tried to paste text from another site into my Firebox document, but it says "Firefox does not support Copy & Paste". How do I enable clipboard? I never had problems like this on Firefox before...why?

I tried to paste text I copied from another site into my Notepad++ (as I've always done in the past with no problem).
But today for the 1st time, I got a message when I tried to paste the text "Firefox does not support Copy & Paste". What?
What happened to the clipboard?

That's a security feature in Firefox.
Use this extension to add the necessary permissions to Firefox - Allow Clipboard Helper:

You tube is fine but Video from other sites will not play in any browser all of a sudden. I have latest version of firefox (16.something) flash and all plug in

I cannot play videos from many sites. Everything was fine up until a few days aago. You tube works fine but others will not. I have firefox 16.something and latest versions of flash. All plug ins are there and enabled. Have read through many support threads and nothing is working. This happens on chrome and ie as well.

You can check for problems caused by recent Flash updates and try these:
*disable a possible RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin extension for Firefox and update the RealPlayer if installed
*disable protected mode in Flash 11.3 and later
*disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin

I recently updated my IOS software on my IPAD with the latest version and now video from some sites does not run. I did not do the update on my other IPAD and the video runs fine. Any idea why.

I have an IPAD 3 and recently updated the IOS software with the latest version and now video from some sites will not display where it did prior to the update. When I go to those same sites on my other IPAD that I did not do the softward update the video still works. Any idea why and what to do to fix it?

Try this - Reset 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 - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

Embed video into another site??

I have just finished creating a website in iweb, and published it to a folder. I am clueless when it come to html or web coding. So my question is, is there any way I can get an embed code to post my video from my site into another site?

The only way I've found to link to a movie file I've used in a site is to use the following URL:
http://web.me.com/MMeAccount_Name/Site_Name/Media/movie_filename.mov
That will link directly to the movie file.

Get videos from my site to play on firefox browsers?

The videos from my site http://fightforfunny.com do not play on firefox browsers. They work for all browsers except firefox. The videos are hosted by amazon s3 in the mp4 format. I did this because I need the videos to be playable on mobile devices such as iPhone and Android devices. How can I make these videos work for all users on firefox browsers, using amazon s3 hosting. I cannot do a flash format because that would make the videos not work for mobile devices. Please help, thanks.
-FightForFunny

That is a weird issue. 
The video starts and then the player gets removed. 
I can make it work if I click the full screen icon and the player keeps working if I return to the normal player. 
So it looks that some JavaScript isn't compatible.
The Web Console (Web Developer > Web Console;Ctrl+Shift+K) shows this error:
<pre><nowiki>Video.js: currentTime unavailable on flash playback technology element. (new TypeError("this.el.vjs_getProperty is not a function", "http://www.fightforfunny.com/wp-content/plugins/video-embed-thumbnail-generator/video-js/video.js?ver=3.5.1", 21))

Downloading sharepoint 2013 videos from Microsoft Site

Hello,
I have seen a couple of videos in this link and i thought of downloading it
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-US/office/dn448488
is it possible ot download this videos? any idea how to do it?
dfd

Hi Vishnu,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to download the videos of SharePoint 2013.
It seems that there is not a way to download the videos from the site, you only can watch it online. In addition, there is another link for SharePoint 2013 videos, it is also unable to download , but you can download the presentations of SharePoint 2013.

I hope this helps.

How do I control my mac from another mac not in the same network?

How do I control my mac from another mac not in the same network? Thanks

You can do it manually, but it is much simpler if you use a tool such as Back To My Mac, LogMeIn, or something like that. Those programs enable you to connect to your computer through your router without you having to adjust the router settings manually.

Use video from Web Gallery in iWeb

Hi,
do anyone using video from Web Gallery in iWeb? will it a better way than just drag and drop from the Media itself?

The following thread is about someone who started out with his videos in iWeb itself, but later found it better to instead link to a MobileMe Gallery — read particularly his last post here:
_Casting Director needs advice_
And in reply to one of your threads, I indicated how much faster a video displays from MobileMe Gallery than it does from iWeb:
_My Web Video loading slower than Youtube (same file size)_

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in [[Safe mode]]:
* Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)

Help! FR find itune library from another account, not mine!

My Mac Pro has two accounts, and if I use FR to play music, it only shows playlist from another account, not mine! how can I fix it?

Well, after troubleshooting here in the Front Row forum for a year, I've never seen that problem from anyone else. That's why I don't think you're going to find much support here. AppleCare Support will charge you $49 (in the U.S.) to troubleshoot a software issue after 90 days. I'm not sure what the charge is in Canada. You could buy an AppleCare Protection Plan (you can anytime within the first year of purchase) and then get free telephone support for software issues, like this.

Use sender from payload: Sender not in payload

Hi,
I am currently facing problems with a IDoc -> XI -> Proxy(XI) sceanrio.
The Idoc is received by XI without any problems. No message mapping is required for this scenario. However, the message keeps getting stuck in the Inbound queue (SMQ2). The status text says "Use sender from payload: Sender not in payload".
Can anyone help me out on this?
Thanks,

Can we use Result from another query in Webi using Bex uery universe?

Hi,
Can we use Result from another query filter option in Webi to create a report using a Bex Query universe?
I need to create a report using two universes, one is Bex Query Universe and the other is Orcle universe. I have two queries, one is using Oracle universe; the other using Bex Query universe. I need to pass the Oracle data from the Oracle query to the Bex Query query to get the matched data from SAP Bex query.
I used Result from another query in the query filter panel for the query using Bex query universe. But I got an error saying that 'A filter contains a wrong value. you cannot run this query. (Error: WIS 00007). The data used in the filter on both sides are the same. they are char.
I have tested by using two queries from the same Bex query universe to see if the Result from another query filter option works. And I got the same error.
Has anyone run into the same issue and if this is possible and what should be the solution?
Thanks in advance!
Edited by: BO_Haiyan on Oct 6, 2010 3:47 PM

In that situation:
Create two queries : Oracle and BW query.
@ Report:
As you have to see result set from both the Dataproviders, correct? To achieve thise one must have common dimension objects to merge them at report and use Objects those are coming from both queries to use them in single Table/Report.
Unless you don't use Merge Dimensions, you don't get a chane to use both queries objects in single Table/Report. (It will give tooltip saying: You can't drop here -- Incompatable Objects)
In case, if you don't have common dimensions, change object definitions to Detail objects, for those required.
Hope it helps you.
Thank You!!
