Youtube videos in windows 8.1 will not play

an error occurred
I think many people will have seen this?

Hi,
In Windows 8, Flash Player is integrated with Internet Explorer. To troubleshoot issue with displaying video, here are three steps you can take:
Enable Flash Player
Disable ActiveX Filtering
Update Internet Explorer to get latest version of Flash Player

  • When I take a photo or video in landscape mode, it will not play back or show in landscape with the phone held horizontally.

    When I take a photo or video in landscape mode, it will not play back or show in landscape with the phone held horizontally. i have an iPhone 5. I think this happened sometime after the last upgrade but I am not sure when. is there a setting on the phone that may have gotten changed somehow?

    Slide your finger up from the bottom of the screen to reveal the Controls panel. One button controls orientation lock to prevent the screen rotating as you rotate the phone. You can toggle that control on and off as you need. Slide the panel back down when you are finished with it.

  • ITunes purchased videos and all DRM movies will not play on iOS 8 devices when streamed from an external drive (or streamed from other wireless devices). Any solution in sight?

    Video streaming of DRM movies, purchased from iTunes and other vendors, to any iOS device is not working.

    I am not sure if you really understand the issue at hand. Possibly that you are just scanning, not reading the whole text, or simply that you just want to close a thread with your last words or derail it for whatever strange reason. So far you have been more destructive than helpful, but again this could be ignorance at best.
    If you would have had the decency to read the entire thread you would have come to the conclusion that every manufacturer, I came across, has posted FAQ's to this issue but Apple. Find a short excerpt below:
    SeaGate  http://knowledge.seagate.com/articles/en_US/FAQ/006135en?language=en_US <http://knowledge.seagate.com/articles/en_US/FAQ/006135en?language=en_US> Playing DRM (Digital Rights Management) protected movies in Seagate Media App Information regarding remote streaming of DRM protected movies. Most forms of DRM (Digital Rights Management) will prevent playing movies on unauthorized devices or from remote storage hosted on wireless drives or NAS drives(Seagate Wireless, Seagate Wireless Plus, Seagate Central or Seagate Personal Cloud). Movies purchased from iTunes can be streamed to iOS 6 and iOS 7 devices which were authorized from remote storage (the video could be selected in Seagate Media App and would be played in a Safari browser), however in iOS 8 this has stopped working. A bug has been filed with Apple, however this functionality has not been restored. Therefore, DRM protected movies purchased on iTunes can no longer be played on devices running iOS 8.

The DRM protected content is opened in Safari where the DRM is decrypted and the video is played. iOS 8 issue In iOS 8 Apple device has NOT enabled Safari based DRM decryption. Therefore DRM protected content, i.e. purchased movies or TV shows from iTunes, CANNOT be streamed from the Media Drive/WFD in iOS 8. This issue has been reported to Apple.

Here are the remaining issues that we are aware of in the iOS 8 general release: • Video streaming of DRM movies (purchased from iTunes and other vendors): iTunes purchased videos and all DRM movies will not play on iOS 8 devices when streamed from AirStash (or streamed from other wireless devices). These movies are digitally protected and the AirStash app sends them to the Safari browser to play (which works for all prior iOS versions). However, in iOS 8, Safari will no longer allow DRM movies to play. These movies will play when the video is transferred to the iPhone/iPad and played in the Apple's Video App or the corresponding App from the vendor.

If this is the case and Apple will not address this issue or fix it since Apple believes that movies should be protected this way, you need to let the community know that movies are restricted this way.

It appears that Apple finally fixed an issue they had with their movie DRMs. The files should have never played in the first place.

  • Windows Media Player will not play embedded in Firefox

    I'm puzzled over the sudden inability to play embedded Windows Media Player files in Firefox. Everything was working fine, then suddenly yesterday with no changes made by me and no updates or other changes to the system I am aware of, suddenly it will not play.
    I can right click a link and save it, and it will play in the regular Media Player. However, when the content is embedded in a website, it loads the page and just sits there. Won't play.
    I'm using:
    Windows Vista Home Premium
    Windows Media Player v. 11.0.6002.18311
    Firefox 3.5.5
    I went to this page:
    http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=206213
    And when I type in about:plugins, I cannot see the DRM files. Am I supposed to? I tried using the Windows Media Player Plugin for Firefox (wmpfirefoxplugin) to repair it, but that hasn't helped.
    Any advice? Please keep in mind that I am practically retarded when it comes to tech stuff, and working several jobs and in school full time, so I really don't have the ability to spend hours and hours researching this. I need a concise, quick fix. Thanks!

    Why are you using such an old Firefox/3.5.3 version from 2009 (Gecko/20090824) as shown in the user agent and haven't updated Firefox for such a long time?
    See:
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Finding+your+Firefox+version
    The Firefox 3.5.3 version that you currently run is no longer supported with security updates.
    You should at least use the latest Firefox 3.6.x version if you do not want to switch to Firefox 4+ versions.
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Updating+Firefox
    Your plugins list in the system details list shows the WMP plugin (np-mswmp), so that plugin should be working.
    Do WMP test pages work?

  • Windows media player will not play tutorial videos

  • Hey. I use my iPad to watch videos while I exercise. For some reason, most of my videos show an iCloud and will not play. Is there a setting that will make my videos play normally again and not through the iCloud?

    Why have my videos switched from playing no problem at all to not playing and the iCloud is the "play" button?

    No it's not stealing. They have an allowance that you can share with so many computers/devices. You'll have to authorize her computer to play/use anything bought on your acct. You can do this under the Store menu at top when iTunes is open on her computer.
    As far as getting it all on her computer....I think but I am not sure (because I don't use the feature) but I think if you turn on Home Sharing in iTunes it may copy the music to her computer. I don't know maybe it just streams it. If nothing else you can sign into your acct on her computer and download it all to her computer from the cloud. Not sure exactly how to go about that, I haven't had to do that yet. I wonder if once you authorize her computer and then set it up for automatic downloads (under Edit>Preferences>Store) if everything would download. Sorry I'm not much help on that.

  • Video copied from iphone 4 will not play

    When I use the windows photo and video transfer to copy a video from my iphone 4 I get a 1mb file and an error saying the file cannot be played, no matter which media player I try to use.
    I am unable to copy the file directly from the folder inside the phone. I simply get a 256kb file that does nothing.
    I'm using Windows 7 pro 64 bit and an iPhone 4 with all the updates.
    The videos I record play fine on the phone and I can email the video to myself and that plays fine on my computer however the quality is massively reduced using that method.
    Any reason why the transfer doesn't work and why I can't simply copy right off the phone to my machine? I've rebooted both devices and it still does not work.

    At least I'm not the only one with the issue. I was looking it up so see if others had the same problem and found a bunch of posts about it. I'm assuming it's not the phone then, it's the software. Should I bring it to the Apple Store? Replacing the phone seems stupid, because the phone isn't really the problem. It's the software! Maybe the iOS 5.0.2 will fix it???  I don't really want to wait though, it's a pain. If a lot of people have this issue it should get Apple's attention. They need to do something to fix it, ASAP!

  • I have downloaded videos from iTunes but they will not play- message says unable to complete this operation.

    Why are the videos I have downloaded not able to play.when I go to play them the message says unable to complete this operation

    The iTunes Store will direct you to the same article. As Hackintosh said, first delete the track from iTunes, allowing it to move the track file to the trash. Then in iTunes on your Mac, sign into your iTunes Store account and go here:
    In the window you'll be taken to, make sure that the Music tab and "not on this computer" are selected, then locate the defective track in the list and click this button next to the track name:

  • Flash videos will show up, but will not play

    Youtube videos and some other sites work fine but then others will have the video on the site, but when I click play it was just load forever or just go dark. I tried resetting FF, updating Flash, safe mode....nothing working. I also uninstalled Adaware entirely and tried turning off AVG to see if that had something to do with it. Still nothing. The same videos also won't play in Explorer either. This just started and all I had done recently (I think) was update Adaware. Help?
    Here's one example of videos that will load and have some information in the Flash player window, but just will not play: http://www.nfl.com/fantasyfootball/story/0ap3000000439600/article/week-14-fantasy-football-live-journal

    I can't really help you but some extra information may help other posters. I was able to view videos on this NFL site, although they were slow to appear, on IE, Google Chrome and Opera.
    It worked in Firefox after I disabled my Adblock Plus extension for this site. (The video opens with an ad. which is probably relevant.)
    Your System Details aren't showing an adblocker extension but that is something you should check. The adblock problem is very unusual for me.
    I realise that you have only shown one site as an example.

  • Videos will not play unless mouse is moving or scroll used

    I have a MacBook Pro (Retina 15-inch mid-2014) with an Intel core and the most recent OS X Yosemite 10.10.1
    Whenever I try to play a video on YouTube, Vimeo, or the like Safari will not play it unless I move the mouse around or engage the scrolling option on the mousepad.  Sometimes it plays the video, but not smoothly at all.  The audio plays normally as before the video problem occurred.
    For some reason, some advertisements seem to play fine, while others have the same problem.
    I looked up some solutions on Apple and some non-Apple support pages and they did not fix this problem.
    My Safari browser is up-to-date (version 8.0), I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling Flash player, and I don't have ANY extensions installed and none of my third-party plugins/add ons that would mess with the video playing.
    When I ran into this problem, I also had an issue with Facebook loading any images (profile pictures, thumbnails for profile pictures and shared video links, shared photos, similar things like that) and the videos uploaded to Facebook would not have an image either, nor would they load.  I emptied the Safari cache and even manually put the cache.db file into my trash and emptied it out.
    I may have tried some other things out as well, but I think this is what solved the lack of loading images, but it didn't solve the video playing (obviously).
    What do I do?
    Thank you!
