Re: Flash help??

2012-06-18 Thread Jörg Duurkoop
Hi John,

 On a G4 PPC 1.67 10.5.8. Every time I try to play a video on Face Book I get 
 a dialog box telling me to upgrade Flash, but all that's offered for 10.5 is 
 Intel only.
 Any one know how I can play these video's

If you click on the video link instead of the video itself you will be
redirected to the YouTube video and there it will play - still a
little shaky sometimes - on my trusty MDD 1.25 dual running Tiger and
using the processor-specific version of Camino.

Best regards, Jörg.

S glad you posted this --- I have VLC and can NOT get it to work. I dl for 
10.4.11 and for 10.5.8 PPC NOT INTEL and all I get is a black screen in 10.5 
and NO SCREEN in 10.4.

It was always flakey and now it does not work at all.

BTW: I do have the fake version 11 in place of 10.

Still no VLC -- any ideas
G4 OS 10.4 AND 10.5 ps others work such as Real and QT.

But you don't mention what version of VLC you downloaded...

The final version of VLC that runs on Tiger is 0.9.10.  It is a 
universal (ppc and intel) build.


For Leopard, you can run version 2.0.1.  It is NOT a universal build, 
so you have to be careful that you grab the correct one.

It was always flakey and now it does not work at all.


YMMV, I guess.  I've never had issues with VLC, and I use it daily. 
Heck, I'm often finding handy features that I didn't know about 
before... Like being able to press the 'a' key to dynamically change 
the aspect ratio.

VLC is available for Jag and Panther.  Not as sophisticated as the 
vers for Tiger, and doesn't do as well with Flash stuff tho.  But 
it's decent.


See the reply I posted to Jonas'; it has the download url.

Last working VLC version for 10.4 (PPC) is 0.9.10.
Which version do you have?

For FLV and SWF video, I use SWF  FLV Player as well (version 3.8, on G4
and G5 with OSX 10.4), and it usually works fine.

Re: Leopard won't install on G5 1.8ghz dual power mac.

2012-06-18 Thread Darryl Jones
If the disc is dual layer and the reader is not, it might not want to open 
properly.
Hold the eject key down while you're powering up the computer and keep it down 
til it pops out. It might pop out and try to go immediately back in so be ready 
to pull the power cable when the drive drawer pops out, then take out the disc 
and try to restart.

 I would suggest resetting the PMU and trying to boot from the image again

 I had a similar issue with getting Leopard on a G5 dual 2.0Ghz that didn't 
 have dual layer DVD, and it took a couple of days before I tried resetting 
 the PMU and that did the trick even  though I have no idea why. I was at a 
 point where I decided I'd try everything and anything, no matter how remote 
 or off the wall.

VLC starts and you can hear the sound of *.flv file but still nothing but a
