Why is live and video streaming so slow on my MacBook Pro?
why is live and video streaming so slow on my MacBook Pro?
Hi redngreen,
Does this happen with Wi-Fi and ethernet?
Is your network slow with other activities?
There's a section in this article for Wi-Fi network seems slow. Some of it applies to Ethernet as well.

After "upgrading" to 10.9 my 2.8GHz Core 2 Duo MacBook Pro is dramatically slower to the point it is not productive for me to work on. My Mac Mini is also impacted. Any ideas / suggestions?

for the last 2 days, after upgrading firefox, every time i launch firefox v25 it is causing my macbook pro 17" (early 2011 build) running mavericks 10.9 to have screen issues. The screen blacks out, or splits into two (the left 1/3rd section of the screen is shown on the right side) or causes hundreds of 2x2 flashing pixels randomly scattered across the screen to appear. I have turned off the acceleration options. I have tried upgrading to v25 beta, its not working. I have tested this about 25 times with various programs running and the ONLY time I have this issue is when I have a firefox browser screen running (its OK if I shut all screens but have the top bar only showing), so it is definitely an issue with firefox.
Hello,
Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
Then perform these steps:
*Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
*In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
*In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
*Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
* [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
* [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you. -
I know people also have been having this trouble with the Facebook videochat, but it's also with the iChat replacement too. Any advice?
Hi,
In Messages > Preferences > Video section > Bandwidth drop down try setting the speed to 500kbps
This is faster then the min for 4 way video chats but can slow the chat to a more common speed.
Basically as internet speeds have increased the differences between two buddies can be greater.
Using slower speeds can be a more common area of speed.
It can also help when ISPs tried to combat Peer-to-Peer file sharing and slow down your service.
Video chats are Peer-to-Peer and the ISPs can't tell the difference.

When exporting separate audio and video streams, the audio drifts out of sync
So this is my first slightly larger project in Final Cut Pro X.
When I export my finished project (around 12 minutes long) straight to quicktime, it plays back perfectly.
When I export using compressor, the resulting audio and video streams are two different lengths. The audio comes out a full second longer. If you try to lay them down in a program like Adobe Encore, the audio starts out perfectly in sync. Two minutes in you notice the video is slightly out of sync with the audio. By the end of the video it's comically bad, over a second out of sync.
What's even more vexing is if I try to take the quicktime file that IS in sync upon playback, and try to convert it burn that to a dvd or blu-ray using toast, the problem re-emerges.
I triec searching around, but most of the suggestions that came up were vauge, like, "Upgrade to a real program like Final Cut." (This was in reply to people who were using free software programs.)
I did see one idea surface where 44 and 48 kHz sampling rates don't play well together. So I combed through my project and found all the 44.1 songs that were used, and swapped them out with upsampled versions. Nothing changed. It didn't sound like it would fix it, as people usually said it was a specific amount of frames off, not something drifting out of sync.
So the question is, does anyone have any suggestions on what could be causing this? Thanks! :-)Project settings can be accessed and changed by selecting the project and pressing command-J. Then, in the inspector, click on the little gear in the lower-right hand corner to access the settings.
Why are you trying to output video/audio separately? If the content plays in-sync when exporting a quicktime movie (using current project settings), you could try separating the video/audio using MPEG Streamclip as a second step instead of using compressor. For audio, don't change the sample rate from the project settings, and use uncompressed audio (AIFF) as the output format. -

Audio and video streaming example using USRPs
Is there any example available which can do audio and video streaming together using USRPs.
Thanks.
JKIt is video transmission only. That is the only example I can find that comes close to what you are trying to do. Together along with this demo:
http://www.ni.com/white-paper/13881/en/
You may be able to piece together what you are trying to do. Other than that, I don't see any current audio/video streaming examples. If you pursue this application, don't forget to give back to the community!

How to demultiplex the merged audio and video streams
Hi. I'm currently working on a video conferencing program. I successfully implemented the program using threads to run the audio and the video clients and servers. The problem with this is that the delay for the transmission of both media is a little too great. So now, I'm trying to merge both media into on DataSource, so then I don't have to worry about sending audio and video into 2 different ports and RTP sessions. I know how to merge the audio and video streams, but I was wondering how to extract each media back after receiving the merged audio and video streams. Any ideas? I used the createMergingDataSource(the_DataSource_array) method to merge both streams. Thanks.
J.L.I am working on the same problem. Is there any solution yet?
Regards

Is is possible to stream a movie through my macbook pro 15in onto a TV through my HDMI-DVI chord while also using my computer for other tasks and minimizing my streaming show.
To enable a second display over AirPlay, you first need to be connected to the same network as your Apple TV. Next, open System Preferences > Displays, and select your Apple TV from the “AirPlay Display” drop-down menu.
Once you do this, your display may flash as the second display connection is acquired, and the Apple TV takes over as the second display. If the displays are mirrored, then you can correct this by opening the “Arrangement” tab in System Preferences > Displays, and ensuring that the “Mirror Displays” checkbox is unchecked.
In this same “Arrangement” tab, you can move the displays around in the pane to ensure that they're positioned correctly, relative to your physical space (usually side-by-side, or top-down). The primary display here is denoted here by the Menu bar on the display. The arrangement helps with being able to drag windows from one display to the next: if your secondary display is arranged to be to the right of your primary one, for example, you can drag things to it through the right side of your primarcy screen. -
