Codec Setup to get all Online Videos to play (2 Viewers)

[mamachan]

0.9.0 uses the internal player only for mp4. The older version did try external as well, maybe you had some external players that played mp4? MP4 DO work in 0.9.0, if you have your codecs setup right. (As describes in SAF thread).

no, i only use internal player for ALL my videos.
All works fine.
The only problem is with MP4 stream (and 0.9.0 version). If i download the MP4 stream on my hard disk NO PROBLEM, i can play it without any problems.
With 0.8.5 any problems.
I don' use SAF.

Online Videos to play or the SAF v3.47, .ts files and MY TV do not work...

Online Videos ... I like that.
But if install the codec setup to get all Online Videos to play or the SAF v3.47, .ts files and MY TV do not work. And without the Haali Media Splitter (MatroskaSplitter 1.9.42.1) is the .mkv displays slowly.
I use the MP 1.0.2.0 and Vista SP1.

, .ts files and MY TV do not work.

Rename *.TS to *.MKV and it will be working.

It is becouse this: 0002069: TsReader is not working properly with some H264 codecs - MediaPortal Bugtracker

Yahoo Music Videos

In the first post it says:

If you want YahooMusicVideos to work, those videos can only be played using the SWF file from the Yahoo site with the ActiveX component of an installed Adobe Flash Player.

However I cannot find any link for the SWF file. I use Vista Ultimate SP1 and I have Adobe Flashplayer 10 installed. I can play Yahoo Music Vidoes online but not in OnlineVideos. Everytime I try, I get an immediate error (does not even try to stream the file) and error.log shows:

[ERROR][MPMain]: Flv on Play Error Class not registered (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80040154 (REGDB_E_CLASSNOTREG)) System.Windows.Forms at System.Windows.Forms.UnsafeNativeMethods.CoCreateInstance(Guid& clsid, Object punkOuter, Int32 context, Guid& iid)

When I exit MP I get a message flash.ocx not found. I tried installing this file, as outlined in various posts on the web, but it didn't help. I still get the same errors.

Of course, I cannot play .mp4 Youtube videos either so maybe it is a different problem. I set up my codecs as outlined in the first post.

This Error means you don't have Adobe Flash Player for IE installed.

Thanks! I can't believe I missed that, looking for all the complicated things and missing the obvious. It's so long since I used IE I never even thought about it. You could add a note on the first post "Adobe Flash Player (For IE)" for dummies like me

 

[offbyone]

Actually there is. Point 4. Just not as clear as you probably needed.

After installing the codecs from the first post as well as the HPC AviSplitter mentioned a few posts later, I am having about 50% success rate.
For example I can play videos from YouTube and ZDF, but not from ARD or MyVideos. I can also play videos from NASA and TedTalks, but these don't display any thumbnails, whereas the others do (even the ones that don't play). I used CodecSniper to clean out my broken codecs, and attach a list of what's left.
How can I get this to 100%? One of the posts suggested deinstalling Nero, but I am reluctant to do this, as I use ot for burning CDs. I was also unable to get any sound from our Kodak camera's MOV files until I installed Nero.
If you need one of those pretty graph pictures I see in other posts, please explain how to make one.

P.S. After switching from X-Factor skin back to Blue3Wide, it is easier to see the file extensions. All .FLV files fail to play with an "Audio Codec Error" message. The streams from ARD appear not to have any file extensions and simply deliver the message: "Unable to play the video."

I also have ffdshow installed, set to handle most audiocodecs. Looking at my graph, ffdshow is used for FLV.
