I tried to use a url (like http://www.example.com/dbname.nsf/notesunid/$File/filename.mp3) to play a sound attachment from Notes document on Domino server 9.0.2. I hope it can play directly by streaming but it always download the file. Any suggestion?
You should be able to use HTML5 Audio for this. Here's a simple example:
<audio src="/dbname.nsf/notesunid/$File/filename.mp3" controls></audio>

So I have a youtube page open where I can watch a video.
But this video was taken down by the user. My open page still has the video, if you go to it again (refresh) the new page does not.
Since I have the video loaded in my browser tab (chrome), how can I go about finding the actual file and saving it?
In the old days of YouTube, it may have been possible to find the single video file on your harddrive and save it, but this is no longer the case. As explained in this Computerphile video, all YouTube videos are now split into tiny pieces and downloaded piece by piece.
You can observe this for yourself if you open up Chrome (or Firefox's) Dev Tools and watch the nnetwork tab. You'll see:
all of the pieces of the video loading bit by bit.
One additional thing you'll learn from the Network tab is that the videos are downloaded as octet streams, so you won't be able to find the links to the pieces hidden in the DOM.
One thing you migth try is, in the Network tab, clear the results and then move the cursor to the beginning of the video. You should see the streams come up again. Right click on the path name and then do a "save as", and save it as 0000.mp4 (or whatever), for all the pieces. You should be able to reassemble these pieces in any video editing software. I tested this by getting two pieces from a random YouTube video.
I couldn't find anything that doesn't require a restart (and hence reload) of Chrome.
One (kludgy) hack if possible, though, would be to run a screen video capture and play the video.
I have done this long back using IE6, i.e. fetch the file from the temporary files location and rename it to the extension flv.
The following links should point you in the right direction, but can't say it will work for sure, as I believe recent chrome versions seem to have a defensive cache implementation.

You might need to tweak the above for your use.
Run a screen recording/capture program such as:
Screenr
CamStudio
Then edit out the youtube bar if its visible.
The buffered video is cached at the following location:
C:\Users\<user name>\AppData\Local\Temp\flaxxxx.tmp
Note you have to change to whatever user you are using, and xxxx is a random number. Also, the .tmp file might be hidden, so make sure your windows explorer is displaying the hidden files.
While the tab is open, you won't be able to copy the file, but if you close it, the file will be automatically deleted. For doing so, download HoboCopy, extract it and after that, run cmd as administrator. Change the directory on the console to the directory where you have extracted HoboCopy and type the following command:
hobocopy C:\users\<user name>\Appdata\Local\Temp C:\videos fla1234.tmp
<user name> - replace with your windows username
C:\videos - the directory where you want the video to be copied to
fla1234.tmp - the name of the file to be copied.
Wait for the copy to be done and then you can rename the destination file, changing '.tmp' to '.flv'. This file can be played with any FLV supporting media player.
i find this software to get the video from temp files folder and play it http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/video_cache_view.html
Video file is cached, therefore suggested ways can help you to save the file. But if you deal with same problems I offer using IDM(Internet Download Manager). After installation of this application for every online video stream (e.g. all flv files in youtube) IDM brings a small picture that you can click on it and downloading will be started automatically without need of any configuration.
You have to install a browser extension to download YouTube videos. You won't find a simple URL for an mp4 file in the HTML source. Try googling "youtube downloader" + your browser name.
As far as I recall, YouTube videos are not served as a continuous HTTP resource, but instead divided into small chunks and assembled client-side by the Flash player. This is why you can jump into the middle of a video, without having to buffer the first half of the video.
Generally speaking, YouTube don't want you to rip their content, so they aren't exactly making it easy for downloaders.
I am planning to build a system to broadcast public events (trials, meetings, conferences).
A key request will be the insertion of live subtitles to the A/V stream.
The subtitles will be "live" since they will be produced by an operator while the event will happen.
I suppose the HTML5 "track" element is not yet implemented by any of the major browsers, but: can I expect to eventually use it for live subtitles? Will I be able to inject the subtitle to the page while the stream is playing?
Please Look at the following links. Looking at the link i am having to believe it should be possible as they are using Js to show subtitles
http://www.storiesinflight.com/js_videosub/
http://cuepoint.org/
You may also consider http://mozillapopcorn.org/ which is to show content on timing of the video. So technically u can use this with ajax to show/stream subtitles
There are HTML5 video JS libs that support subtitles (eg: VideoJS supports the .srt format, there are several easily Google-able others), however to the best of my knowledge none of them support streaming subtitles.
I think you may have to build your own solution for this. If I were to do it, I'd probably try doing something with Socket.IO's broadcast functionality that can push data out to all connected clients at once, and have your client-side JS listen for new subtitle events and render them on screen as they come in. You can use plain ol' CSS to overlay the text over the HTML5 video.
I want to make simple project which play flash video file from online.
I've searched some articles and read carefully.
But I can't understand, how to play flash video files on iPad by Code.
So I need help from you.
Please.
Simply put, without being jailbroken, No you cannot.
The closest thing to being able to view flash in iOS is Frash, and I am not even sure if it is actively being developed or supported any more.
You can always check out the open source project for Frash. by Comex.
All IOS devices don´t support Flash player, but is be possible to use a Javascript or HTML5 player for video.
No, iWhatever's currently do not and to the best of my surfing knowledge, have no intention of supporting flash format due to some argument between apple and adobe.
At the end of the day, the Flash video format is a container for a movie that’s been compressed by some codec. If you can get to the source file, you know the format of the container, you know the codec that was used to encode the video, and you know how to write code to convert that into audio streams and video frames, then yes, you can play Flash videos on the iPad.
So, to recap:
Get the Flash video file.
Get to the encoded video data in the Flash file.
Decode the video and convert it, either into raw audio and video or to another format that the iPad can play.
Play the result of #3.
Needless to say, this is quite the endeavor. It’s better to download the movies to your desktop and convert them there before loading them into your application.
Yes you can! The question is whether or not you can play the video itself not whether or not ipads support flash player.
the answer is this.. new versions of "flash video" have a f4v file extension. These videos are basically a h.264 mp4 files. You "may" be able to play it in an ipad simply by renaming it to .mp4
If that doesn't work then use a utility like Miro to convert your "flash video" to a format that your ipad will accept. http://www.mirovideoconverter.com/
I have an mp3 on a remote server. Want to play it as a stream, using my own UI,and my own ViewController.
How would you recommend doing that?
I used the code from this page to make a streamer, and it worked well, and was easy to implement.

I need to download an audio file from the net and want to play it Using AVAudioPlayer.can any one give me suggestions how to do this.
you can use the NSURLConnection if you save the file in the server. the following is the link:
http://developer.apple.com/iphone/library/documentation/Cocoa/Reference/Foundation/Classes/NSURLConnection_Class/Reference/Reference.html#//apple_ref/occ/clm/NSURLConnection/sendSynchronousRequest:returningResponse:error:
This is the method name sendSynchronousRequest:returningResponse:error:
For the playlist, I am not used before, so cannot help you.
Good luck.
