Video with bonjour wireless question

Hi,
Question 1: When using two new macboook pros, my brother and I are trying to use video ichat av with wireless. It connects briefly(30 secs) and the first few frames of the image is fine, but then freezes or becomes very blocky. Finally the application stops the chat. The wireless router is a Linksys. Firewall allows ichat bonjour traffic, set in sys prefs on both machines. Any ideas?
Question 2: When using bonjour over wireless, does ichat av require a wireless router? Or can it work with just 2 wireless capable machines?
thank you for any help,
Tangerinebluejean

Hi TangerineBlueJean,
Re question 1
Ignore the Mac firewall preset for Bonjour as it opens the wrong protocol and misses one port.
You need to set a New setting.
Choose "Other" in the drop down.
Bonjour ports are
TCP 5298
UDP 5297, 5298, 5353
Give the setting a name and Add/Apply
These same ports need to be open in the Linksys preferably by enabling UPnP in the Administration tab rather than Port Forwarding as this will allow on one computer.
There is also no Preset in the Mac Firewall for iChat's AIM Login, A/V chats or the Jabber side.
Complete set of ports are here

Re Question 2
Yes, between two wireless capable machines you can set up an Ad Hoc network (one Mac becomes the Base Station in effect) and then Bonjour will work.

  • Can't see HP Laserjet 3055 with Bonjour on wireless network

    The printer is an HP Laserjet 3055 with Bonjour and is plugged into the LAN with an Ethernet cable. An eMac which is also connected to the network via Ethernet can see, print and scan without any issues whatsoever.
    All wireless computers cannot see the HP AiO which uses Bonjour. However, by manually entering the IP address in the Print Browser and using HP jet Direct - Socket, the printer is seen from the wireless computers. Using IP printing, all wireless iMacs and the MacBook Pro can print but the HP Director doe not see the printer therefore the scanning feature of the HP Laserjet 3055 are not accessed.

    Hi Chris
    This answer is rather late and you've probably sorted the problem out. At least I hope you have.
    I found your post as I was looking for anyne else with an Intel Mac who had successfully printed etc with HP Laserjet 3052/3055 as I'm about to buy these for the office. After having decided on these printers after checking that they work with Tiger I realised that I coudn't confirm on the HP website that they worked with Intels.
    So from your post I guess I now know that Intels do print with this printer, but did you ever sort out the scan function?

  • Import video with audio question

              When I start a new project and import a video with audio, then drag to the timeline , it puts the latter on audio 4 track instead of track 1. Why is it skipping 3 tracks?

    . Thanks Bill.  It was a mono track and the 3 above were stereo.  I deleted the 3 empty tracks and now it is below the video directly.  What I am also wondering about is why the video track can be widened vertically,by dragging the bottom border and the previous audio 1 track could be also, but this one can not.  Is it not possible to see the waveform as I can when I imported an audio file in a different project?  That one was expandable veritically.There was no video in that one.

  • No Video With Google Talk on Droid 3

    Just got my wife the new Droid 3 that's running Android 2.3.4. This is the version of Android that is supposed to support video with Google Talk. Tried starting Talk and only thing I can do is messaging with Talk. No video option like on my Thrive tablet.
    What's the Deal Google?Verizon/Motorola?

    I know how software works and how companies have a habit of delivering products before they are ready, i.e. "get the device approved for software that is loaded on a device".
    Based on what I found on the Motorola frequently asked questions page, see below, It appears that Motorola tried but right now it's in Google's & Verizon's court. Because of Google's urge to keep their products a step ahead of their competitors, I'd be surprised if it was them holding up approval.
    Google Talk video chat
    DROID 3 by Motorola will not support Google Talk videochat at the time of market launch.  We are excited about the potential of videochat to enrich the Motorola smartphone experience, and we are working actively with Google and Verizon Wireless to enable this feature as soon as possible.
    While we do not endorse or guarantee these solutions, or provide support for them, some owners have reported success using a 3rd party Android Application like "Tango".  You can search the Android Market for 3rd party applications that are available that will enable you to video chat.

  • How can I reach a person with Verizon Wireless

    Due to Hurricane Sandy I have a bill payment problem.  I called my bank this morning to see if they were open.  They were.  I drove to the bank to make a deposit and they had already closed so I could not make the deposit.  Tomorrow is a wait and see.  I may not have power.  That wouldn't prevent me from making a deposit.  If my bank is closed due to no power and I can not make a deposit what will happen with a payment I made via phone using my checking account information already saved in the billing part of Verizon Wireless.  I always make my payment either via computer on-line or by phone.  Always using my same checking account.  I knew I could get to the bank the next morning (today, Monday, November 29th) and there would not be a problem.  I even went to my checking account and checked on line.  The Verizon payment which would show up as an ACH (I think I got that right, I don't have my checking account open and in front of me right now) payment and indicate it was to Verizon Wireless was not on my account yet.  My concern began to grown as the storm is causing so many closures.  Tomorrow the bank may be open, I make my deposit, and no problem.  I wish I had the security of speaking with someone from Verizon Wireless since this is something I've never encountered and hopefully never do again.  I am a worrier.  I try not to worry about things I can not do anything about. Considering that my cell phone was my only contact once power goes I wanted that security or I would have waited and done things in the opposite and normal order.  I do not know how and have not been able to reach an actual person with Verizon Wireless.  I am hoping someone else will have the answer to my question and know how to reach a person.  I would then stop worrying.  I have been a Verizon Wireless customer for about ten years and I have four cell phones on my plan including my father who lives alone in Groveland, FL and was nearly killed in a tractor accident a few years ago.  He did not have a phone.  I have gladly provided him with one and I don't want to jeopardize my wireless account.  That is why I am so worried about this.  He is worried about me up here in this storm and I am always glad to know I can reach him to check on him since he lives alone.  Verizon Wireless provided the security I needed for myself, my father, and my son.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Sincerely,
    Must have cell phone family - Janice

    Hi Ebru,
    Subsequence results are actually stored in their own resultlist container within TS.Sequencecall, which is accessible through the following statement:
    Locals.ResultList[step].TS.SequenceCall.ResultList
     where step is the index of the sequence call step. This resultlist is structured in the same way as the main resultList array. You can also access your subsequence directly from the sequence file container if it is in the same sequence file as the main sequence.  Navigate to this reference using the following:
    RunState.SequenceFile.Data.Seq[sequenceName]
     Using this reference, you can access the containers for each step's result container.
    Hope this helps!

  • How to record a time-limited video with Adobe AIR for iOS

    I am trying to record a time-limited video with Adobe AIR for iOS.
    For example, I want to implement the following function. Start a one-minute timer before launching CameraUI to record video. When the timeout event happens after one minute, stop recording video, close the CameraUI view and obtain the video data so far.
      I have several questions related to that.
      1. How to stop recording video from outside the CameraUI view(in this case, from the timeout event handler) and then close the CemeraUI view? As far as I know, to close the CameraUI view, the only way is to press the [Use Video] button or the [Cancel] button from inside the CameraUI view. Is it possible to close it from outside?
      2. Even if the first problem mentioned above is solved, then how can I get the video data so far(in this case, the video data before the timeout). I know that normally we can get a MediaPromise object from MediaEvent parameter of the  complete handler, and read the video data from the MediaPromise object. But obviously in this case, we can not access the MediaPromise object just because the complete handler itself will not be executed since the [Use Video] button is not pressed.
      3. Is it possible to add a stopwatch to show possible remaining recording time when CameraUI view is open? It seems that the CameraUI automatically uses the full screen of iOS device(in my case, iPad) and there is no extra space to show the stopwatch.
      Are there any solutions or workarounds about the three problem above? I really appreciate it if anyone has any idea about this. Thanks in advance.

    You'd have more control by using the Camera object, showing the camera on a video object inside a Sprite, and capturing that. Then you could put whatever graphics alongside it on the stage.. I've used FlashyWrappers in a test to capture the video to the library.  It took some work, but the test worked well...

  • Possible to do the 3d motion tracking text in video with only adobe products?

    I am very interested in doing some 3d text in some video with motion tracking, such as you see in the opening shots in the show Fringe.
    You will have a scene of maybe a street in the city, the camera is looking forward and moving, you have 3d block text that seems to be just hovering there up off the ground but looks like a real physical 3d object in the shot as the camera moves around.
    I have been looking up tutorials for this in After effects on youtube but they always use other non adobe products as well such as boujou or 3ds max,  I am wondering if it is possible to make the same shot with only adobe products. If so, what whould I use other than after effects.  And lastly, can anyone point me to a good free tutorial using only adobe programs if there is one out there?
    I have seen one video of someone adding text to a moving video but it was flat or plastered onto a wall and not the nice block letters that look like a sculpture in the video.
    Thanks.

    I am wondering if it is possible to make the same shot with only adobe products.
    No, you can't and that settles all your other questions. For tutorials, refer to VideoCoPilot's matchmoving and set extension stuff, but even then you will need to at least use some comemrcial third-party plug-ins.

    I would like to use slideshow in lightroom to export my video as a full screen 1920x1080 video with text overlays.  I am using text overlay in lightroom as it reads from the metadata that is easy for me to input in the library screen.  When i export from lightroom slideshow and choose the 1920x1080 resolution the end product is a very small video in the middle of a black background.  i have double checked and do not have any borders turned on.  Another option would be to export from the library but lr mogrify does not seem to put text overlays on video either.  Any input would be welcome.

    I dont understand anything you said in your post.
    Do you have a specific question about video production?
    The forums are for individual technical or creative issues that users have with video production. I am sur someone will be able to help you, but and to get a response it is best to ask a specific question.
    Is this about a technical problem you have or something about setting up a web site? If its the latter this is the wrong forum.

  • No Video with FCP HDV with QTP

    I have a strange question....
    I have an Intel G5 iMac (10.4.11) and I capture and edit with FCP 5.0.4 using a Sony Z1 using the HDV 1080i50 sequence (I live in Hong Kong) I edit the video and export Quicktime movie using my sequence preset HDV 1080i50.
    I cannot play the exported video with QTP!!
    I hear sound but there is no picture. I only have a white screen!!
    I can open this video with FCP and it plays fine!!
    I can then take this exported video and transfer it to my G5 dual core tower (10.4.11) and the video plays fine in QTP!
    I would really like to be able to use QTP to play these videos! Both the iMac and G5 tower have the exact OSX and FCP. The only difference is one is Intel and the other is PPC! Has anyone had problems playing HDV videos on intel macs?
    Any ideas or suggestion?

    I've re-installed FCP Studio and the problem still persists....
    any ideas?

  • How can I record a video with LAbview?

    Hi,
    I have a question: How can I record a video with labview?
    I have a camera (AXIS 221) connected via rj45 on PC. I see the video of the camera in a browser.
    And I would to acquire the video in labview.
    Could someone help me?
    Thanks
    Raf

    Unfortunately I haven't any experience with this camera. Iguess, you should install API, then crete new VI, place ActiveX container (palette Container->ActiveX) on the Front Panel, then right mouse click, then choose Insert ActiveX object..., then found you camera object and select it and press OK. Then you probably can see image from the on the front panel. Also probably you will be able to get image data in array (how easy is it - depends from the camera API).
    If you able to see image from camera in the Internet Explorer, then another method - you can put Microsoft Web Browser as ActiveX object, then you should also see the image. Disadvantage of this method - you will be not able to get image data.

  • TS1440 iMac freezes, no choice but to hard shutdown, turn back on, white screen with folder and question mark appears

    Hi,
    so my iMac (it's not the most recent iMac if it makes any difference, and I'm running mountain lion 10.8.3) often freezes and I do a hard shutdown as I cannot force quit the applications or click on the apple in the top left to shut it down. When I come to turn it back on, I'm greeted with a white screen, in the middle of which is the dreaded folder with the flashing question mark in it. I've noticed that just before a freeze occurs, it starts running slowly and if I try going onto Facebook for example, it says that it cannot connect to facebook.com despite the internet connection being fine as I can browse things on Google. I have also noticed that before a freeze, in Finder, in All My Files, no files show. I went through this http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1440 and the problem still persists. Sometimes it does load fine if I shut it down again but when I eventually open up safari, if I had been on youtube for example, it will reload the page from a few videos before and not the one I was on when it actually froze.
    Any help would be hugely appreciated,
    Thanks
    Side note: When it says I must choose a community in order to post this, it only gives me a choice of 3 which are Mac OS X v10.4 Tiger, v10.5 Leopard, v10.6 Snow leopard, so apologies if this is posted in the wrong place - is there any way to get it moved to the correct place?

    Yes,easy fix but difficult to buy,think you can get them from the states (off the top of my head about £15).When you go to the apple store,tell yhem what you suspect and they will test if it is the cable or if its the hard drive,dosn't take that long and it's free.If you know what to do you can take the back off and with strong magnifying glass you might be able to see the fray look at the bend of the cable.

  • Issues syncing music and videos with itunes

    issues syncing music and videos with itunes

    Before anyone would be able to provide any troubleshooting steps, you would need to describe what "issues" means. Try describing your problem in detail, as well as what troubleshooting you have already tried before posting your question here. That way no one is wasting your time by asking you to perform steps that you have already taken.

  • Video with quiz

    Hi all, I'm new to adobe captivate. I want to make a video but with quizzes in it. Which means that when I'm playing a video, it will stop at a certain time and a quiz will pop out. I've tried one myself however, it is not working. May I know if there is any sample video with quiz for me to download and test or is there any tutorial for me that teaches me how to do a video with a quiz? Thank you

    Will have to repeat, what Rod already mentioned: mp4 is a video format, by definition that can never be interactive, so you will not be able to have quiz slides, because those are interactive. Only output to SWF or to HTML5 can allow interactivity.
    You are not able to insert interactive elements (like buttons, click boxes, question slides) in a cpvc because that is meant only to create video, for the same reason we all try to explain to you.
