Video in Adobe Reader 7.0.5

I'm gonna take a shot in here to see if anyone knows of this problem.
I am taking a .mov file and embedding it into a .pdf. When I get the file made and I open it up, I have to click on the black box in order for the video to play. However, I would like the video to play automatically upon opening the pdf without having to click on the box. I have been trying to adjust the Adobe Reader settings and I can't seem to figure it out. Does anyone have a solution for this? Perhaps it's not possible.
Thanks,
Tim

Can I play embedded video in Adobe Reader for mobile device (android tablet)?

I have created a PDF file using adobe xi pro and embedded a video in the file. When I move the file in my tablet (andorid jelley bin) and try to run the video file using mobile Adobe reader nothing happen. Any help will be appreciated.

I had a similar problem, and I found this response in an older Adobe forum post. Check it out.

Problems viewing Youtube videos when Adobe Reader is installed

Hi,
Since I installed Adobe Reader XI there are some issues viewing Youtube videos. The videos stop playing after about 2 seconds, or go back to zero.
First I tried to deactivate all plugins in Firefox (which I normally use; I also tried to play the videos in IE, but that didn't work as well).
Then activated one by one.
I use Windows 8.1 (had the same issue on Windows 8).
I got a Windows message, saying there is a problem with my videocard, from [date].
That same day I installed Adobe Reader XI.
So, I deinstalled it, and everything worked fine again.
Today I installed Adobe Reader XI (11.0.05, Dutch) and yoohoo, back to the same issue again: videos stop after 1 or 2 seconds.
Is this a known Adobe issue?

Well, tried several things.
Used AMDDrivertest (or something like that) to detect whether the most recent drivers for the videocard, which seems to be okay.
Then, tested again (to be sure) if youtube video's played well when Shockwave Flash was deactivated. Yes it did.
So I deinstalled Flash, and rebooted pc.
Then downloaded and installed a quite old version of Shockwave Flash (11.6.8.638) and yes, youtube video's played well. But, then again, of course, the tv-site didn't work, for it needs the newest Flash player.
So, uninstalled the flash again, debooted.
Then, downloaded and installed the Shockwave Flash version as I have on my laptop, which is 11.9.900.170.
And ... youtube vid's did'nt work again.
And... the tv-site does work. :-|
I looked into the processes which could be related to Adobe Reader or Acrobat, (I have Creative Cloud) and stopped all those.
Still no changes.
So, for now, I don't know what else I could do, other than watch youtube only at my laptop :-) (better for my workflow I guess :-)
Could it be something with Creative Cloud? Seems to me it couldnt' for I stopped those processes. I don't use that on my desktop.
Still very strange.
The only thing I can think of theres' some kinda bug in the latest Shockwave versions.
I remember I had the same version as on my laptop installed before this one, then the problem started, and because of that I updated to the 12.0.0 43 version.

How to playback sound and video in Adobe Reader in Linux?

Hi one of the killer features of Adobe Acrobat is the ability to embed multimedia content in .PDF documents. (I do hope Adobe extend this functionality).
In Windows Adobe Reader plays these files back just fine (so for example you can make an audio book), but in Linux whenever a .PDF is opened containing multi media content, the application complains that no supported media player is installed.
I have real player installed, as this appears to be the only supported media player - but the acroread executable appears to be unable to find it. (Or at least it seems to not be able to use it). Where exactly is it looking for the executable? (Or is it looking for it at all?
Is there a way to play back embedded media content in PDF documents when using Linux?
I'm using Ubuntu 7.10.

Adobe Reader: Multimedia-Elemente

Hallo Community!
Ich bastle mir Vortragsfolien mit LaTeX. Diese liegen dann als PDF vor. In den PDF-Dateien sind Multimedia-Elemente (Video-Dateien) eingebunden, die alle im AVI-Format vorliegen -- und mit diesen gibt es Probleme. Bei einer Datei kommt die Fehlermeldung: Video nicht verfügbar. Dekomprimierung "vids:h264" wurde nicht gefunden.
Bei einem anderen Video ähnlich: Video nicht verfügbar. Dekomprimierung "vids:MP42" wurde nicht gefunden.
Es gibt aber auch eine (AVI) Datei mit der es funktioniert. Grundsätzlich sind die Dateien vorhanden und werden auch gefunden.
Mein Wissen reicht aus, dass das irgendwelche Codecs sind. Was muss ich damit tun? Muss ich die (global) auf dem Rechner installieren, dass sie dann im Adobe Reader gefunden werden? Muss ich die irgendwie dem Adobe Reader kenntlich machen? Schlich gefragt: Was kann ich tun, um meine Videos im Adobe Reader abspielen zu lassen? Was muss ich ggf. installieren?
Besten Dank und viele Grüße,
André

Also wenn ich *.mp4 oder *.flv-Dateien einbinde, erhalte ich einen Fehler, dass dieser Dateityp nicht unterstützt wird.
Acrobat kann beide Formate problemlos einbinden und sogar kodieren. Allerding weiß ich nicht, wie dämlich sich LaTeX anstellt. Dürfte letzten endeds auch das Problem sein - die Objekte werden als generisches Datenobjekt oder OLE Mediaobjekt in die PDF eingebunden, nicht als "ordentliches" Videoobjekt, weil die natürlich weder für MPEG noch FLV Lizenzgebühren zahlen (wollen).
Und insgesamt, gibt es nicht ein Codec-Paket, so dass ich auch die anderen Formate abspielen kann?
Um Gottes willen, lass bloß die Pfoten von irgendwelchen CoDec-Packs! Das macht nur noch mehr Schaden.
Da müsste es doch eine (universelle) Lösung geben -- ich bin doch sicher nicht der Einzige, der Video-Dateien in eine PDF-Datei einbinden will?!
Ja, klar. Die heißt eben "sauberes" MPEG4 z.B. aus MPEG-Streamclip. Aber wie gesagt, der Schwachpunkt dürfte heir eher der Umgang der Satzsoftware und ide fehlenden Lizenzen sein...

I just updated to Adobe Reader 11.0.07 on my Mac 10.6.8 and now the video files don't work. How do I uninstall the update and return to the previous version?

I just updated to Adobe Reader 11.0.07 on my Mac OS version 10.6.8 and now the video files don't work. How do I uninstall the update and return to the previous version?

I received a notice from Chris Campbell at Adobe that stated : "....we are aware that Macs created between 2006 and 2008 are currently running into problems using the latest release of Flash Player (version 13)." My question is will the update of Adobe Reader 11.0.07 cause this problem with Flash Player 13 on my Mac? Sometimes when I try to view streaming video I get sound but no video.

Adobe reader XI no longer plays video or audio embedded in PDF created with Adobe Acrobat X Pro.

Help please!
Embedded video and audio content in PDFs created using Adobe Acrobat X Pro does NOT play on some school computers after Acrobat Reader XI is installed. The media content played fine with Acrobat X. This is seen with both XP and Windows 7 machines.
Bizarrely, other machines with Windows 7 and XP play the video and audio content fine when Acrobat XI is installed.
Please help, as the PDFs are the delivery mechanism for a very effective literacy programme for children, and this bug has halted delivery for a considerable number of schools and thousands of children are in trouble!

Hi Raman,
I think we have found the source of the problem. It relates to how different browsers are detected by Adobe when updating Flash Player.
To make the videos play within PDFs either from DVD or on the hard drive, it is now essential that Adobe Flash Player 11 Plugin (now version 11.5.502.113) is installed. (Adobe Reader 10 had its own internal flash player, so an external player was not needed)
We have discovered that, when Google Chrome is the browser, automatic updates of Flash do NOT download this programme. Flash 11 ActiveX is the only programme that is downloaded, and the videos do NOT play from DVD or harddrive.
Also, it is not possible to manually download Adobe Flash Player 11 Plugin as this option is not presented to the user. Presumably Adobe have set it up this way, because the Adobe site recognises Chrome is being used, and assumes that the computer does not need the plugin flash player, as Chrome has its own internal flash player. However, other programmes may need it!
We went to FileHippo to download the non-IE version (even though we were using Chrome!) at
http://www.filehippo.com/download_flashplayer_firefox/
Then the videos played from DVD or harddrive.
I have not been able to test how this works with other browsers. I hope that Adobe can sort this problem out asap!
regards
Buffy

Adobe Reader for Android to play video embedded in a PDF document.

I am a medical teacher. A large part of my teaching is technical and skills based and I have a lot of teaching video material. I distribute my material to my students as PDF documents with embedded videos. They can presently only read this on their PCs. It would be wonderful if I could place that material in a 7 inch Android tablet in their coat pockets. They could review a "how to" video and text immediately before perfoming a medical procedure. It is so easy and fast to prepare a Word text document, convert it to PDF embedded with a simple cropped video clip. Also the original word document can be updated in moments and be converted into a fresh PDF with video in a minute later to replace the one on the student computer or tablet whenever. This makes the teaching material a living text easy to keep permanently up to date. To date I have not managed to find an eReader or Tablet that that I could play an video embedded in a PDF document. The problem is Adobe Reader for Android doesn't do this. Does anyone know of any other easy way to produce documents with embedded video that can also be read on a pocket size tablet or eReader? Is Adobe going to upgrade Adobe Reader for Android to this ability sometime? Is there any other PDF reading app that can play embedded video?

GoodReader ($4.99), ezPDF Reader ($2.99) and PDF Expert ($9.99) are well rated and support many more features.

Does anybody have an idea why the videos will not play? Do I need to buy Adobe Reader 9?

It may have used the YouTube app that is no longer included in iOS. Try downloading the YouTube app in the App Store and see if it works.

Will Adobe Reader (iOS) be able to handle acrobat file with video?

I have created power point slides with embedded video. I used Acrobat to make a pdf version of the power point slides. All of the Action Buttons and Video displays perfectly in Windows.
I am interested in have this pdf file be display on an iPad (now or sometime in the future). Does anyone know if that is in the works for Adobe Reader for iOS (iPad) ?? If so, possible time frame ???
Thanks,
G

On ios, we do support playing videos that are embedded as part of a portfolio or as an attachment on a regular document. The key is that the video must be in a format that the device can play. See video formats listed here under Video technologies:
http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/Miscellaneous/Conceptual/iPhoneOSTec hOverview/MediaLayer/MediaLayer.html
I tested such a sample PDF recently. Unfortunately, our forums don't have a means of posting these files. If you'dl ike to see a sample, please email [email protected] and request the embedded video sample from me (Pat W.)
Thanks!

Why does adobe reader 11 not allow you tube videos to be viewed on my MAC?

Adobe reader does not allow me to view you tube videos on my MAC. Why?

Every time I install the newest version, for whatever reason, if I want to watch a video, I get a missing plug in message. I don't get the usual "allow or deny" message with it, it just won't allow me to view the video. I watch a lot of art lessons on line and participate in blogs and this becomes very frustrating. The odd thing, is that when I un-install Adobe 11, I can view the videos but, of course, then I can't download PDF files. The weird thing is, other people in my neighborhood are having the same issue and don't know what to do about it. I may just download an earlier version of Adobe because I didn't have this issue until I updated it some months back. Maybe my 6 year old MAC can't handle the technology even though I am running on the latest Safari version?
