Screen capture of windows media player version 12 - screen-capture

I'm trying to capture the video which is being played in windows media player(version 12) in windows 7. Bitblt method returns black screen for the video while all other windows(media controls, playlists etc.,) are captured successfully. So I browsed about this problem. One of the frequent answers is to disable video overlays in the player. I didn't find any overlay option available in the wmplayer. Also I unchecked
"Turn on DirectX video acceleration for wmv files"
option. Then also, I'm getting black screen only. Is there any way to capture the video content in wmplayer in windows7 ?

Won't happen. Try through DirectX hooking.

Play two vimeo videos at the same time on ios?

Using froogaloop (the js api provided by vimeo) I was able to play two videos at the same time on desktop and android phone but this isn't working on ipad.
It's a video of someone commenting the first video so I also need the first video to be muted (also ok on desktop and android phone).
On ipad, it seems like the first video shortly enters the playing state and stops when the second starts, as if there were an hard-coded limitation on the player that prevent both videos from playing at the same time.
Ipad is also the only platform where I see the "undock" button, which could explain the hard limitation.
Is there a way to play 2 videos at the same time, one muted, the other at full volume ?
First, vimeo has relased its new api recently and froogalops won't be maintained anymore, yet still working. I' don't know wether this release brings any changes in respect of ios
Second, your question is not super clear to me, as it seem you manage to do what you wanted, except on ipad (what ios version and what about other ios devices), while your title and your bottom line is
Is there a way to play 2 videos at the same time, one muted, the other at full volume ?
and not ? Is there a way to play two vimeo video at the same time on ipad or ios ?
Third, vimeo provides the posibility to add autopause=0 in the url of your embeded video, this prevent the vimeo video curently playing to be paused when another one is started.
It works on desktop and android but haven't tried the behaviour on ipad yet as Ì don't have one in hand at the moment.
Finally, after some seach, it seems that this question may be asked regarding ios at large, and not solely ipad, and in this respect this post might be usefull for you
Not sure if it helps, as your post is 7 month old, but if you provide your code I may give a second try.
Cheers

How to stop Google Chrome from thinking my flash is an Ad?

So,
A few days ago, Google Chrome started to block Flash advertisement from auto-playing, by default.
The problem is that I'm using videojs media player to play an HLS live stream on my page.
And, since Chrome does not support HLS protocol natively, the player falls back to a small Flash file to play the video.
But Chrome thinks this Flash file is an AD - thus not allowing it to auto-play as it should.
Is there any way to tell Chrome that this file is actually an important part of my page, and not an AD?
Add an empty Flash file larger than 398x298 to the bottom of your page. I found once you have at least one Flash file above their minimum Chrome will not pause any of your Flash. You cannot hide this extra Flash file with CSS. Optionally use a javascript timeout (3 seconds) to hide the empty Flash file in case it messes with your page layout. I'm using swfObject for embedding.
I am dealing with the same issue, but I think the size of the video and location on the page are factors. Try making the video player bigger. When I went up to 410x308 the problem went away.

MediaElement and native video player shows videos in wrong orientation

I have a problem while using MediaElement to play video. The video isn't shown in correct orientation if its VideoProperties.Orientation is different from VideoOrientation.Normal (e.g. VideoOrientation.Rotate90). Those videos can be recorded by native camera app while holding the phone vertically. It's strange that Windows Phone native video player also has the same problem and is always locked in landscape mode (this doesn't happen with IOS or Android video player). My question is : Does Windows Phone native video player use the same API to play video like MediaElement? In that case, is it possible that that API will be updated to fix this problem in future Windows Phone update? I need to confirm those things to make a suitable workaround for this problem.

Background Audio Agent and Media Player in Windows phone 8

I stuck in a big problem I am playing audio in background using BackgroundAudioPlayer working fine while I am playing another audio file using MediaElement on foreground the background sound is stopped.I want to play both sound simultaneously background and foreground please let me how it will be done.
MediaElement and BackgroundAudioPlayer are exclusive - you can only use one of these at a time.
You are able to play additional sounds using the XNA SoundEffect APIs however. For example of these APIs see this blog entry.

Optimizing video playback in AIR for iOS

Developing an AIR for iOS app that involves video playback. Are there any best practices for optimizing video content for use in AIR applications?
Best route for video through AIR on iOS is to use an h.264 encoded video. These will be hardware accelerated and be better on battery than FLV (the other usual type for Flash).
The problem, of course, is that most h.264 videos cannot be played back using standard Flash video players on iOS. To get around that, you'll want to try one of two things:
Use StageWebView. This will open the video in the standard iOS video player, which is purpose-built to play h.264 videos. The downside here is you have absolutely no control over the video other than unloading the StageWebView. You also have no control over the GUI and the video will display over the entire application and can be difficult to position in Flex.
Use StageVideo which will allow for hardware accelerated h.264 videos and use the built in video playback mechanisms. It works fantastically, you have full control over your video, and it is just the video, so you can skin it as you see fit. The only downside is this displays the exact opposite of StageWebView and displays under your app. You will have to create a mask to see the video.
It's unfortunate that the two best options for playing video on iOS do not reside in the Display List, but that is what we have to deal with.
Hopefully that helps.
You can use component FPVideoPlayer from ane library FPNativeUI, which displays video over display list: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G5IdHnms2Dc. http://flashpress.ru/blog/ane/native-ui/?lang=en
