I just installed again the newest flashplayer for viewing the flowplayer video's , but get a error 200, stream not found
Do i need a plugin in my browser for seeing flowplayer video's ?
In the past is was working normal, but suddenly it was over
Try to fix it , but read something about a url : relative or absolute ..beyond my configuration
So i am stuck with this ..

It works on Windows 7 and IE 8 here. The relative path should therefore not be a problem. Are you using a web proxy?

Hi janamdo,
Ie is pretty poor at reporting the actual problem, often just returns page can't be displayed. Might be worthwhile installing Firefox and getting the flash player for that. Will hopefully give a better idea on the problem.
Also might be worth checking the flash settings and security in case flash s being blocked from writing a temp file or something.

Hi Blacksun..thanks!
I know Firefox is better for the webdeveloper..i can try this
I reinstalled explorer 8/9 and flash and got a error message, about a missing flash module..has maybe something to do with the windows register where it is missing
Problem is how to get it fixed by myself, because there are paid solutions for it ( you know that kind of adds ..)
Firefox won't read Flowplayer video .. i see a lot error reporting on this
So i must go back to explorer..nasty problem this one..http://flowplayer.org/forum/
Has maybe to do with youtube video and flowplayer working together http://flash.flowplayer.org/plugins/streaming/youtube.html
Flowplayer is too buggy as it seems ..this is really stupid.

I too sometimes run into problems with some websites using Flash on a MacPro and Safari. The website tells me, I must upgrade to newest flash, but then installer gives me an error.. I got it to work on 2nd try though.

Don't know if its caused by some magic on the web server here, but I tend to use an ipad to read the forums (yup that explains my weird typos). iPads don't do flash but when I look at the movies here I get given a download link to a QuickTime .mov file which plays perfectly. Maybe deinstalled or deactivate flash from Firefox so the website doesn't know it's there and you might get the same options as me.
Also just had a thought, did you gO to the adobe flash site and download and install the version of flash that's suitable for non-ie browsers? its a different plugin for ie and every other browser.

I can bypass the flowplayer and use the .mov version for Quicktime.
Ofcourse i tried this also , but i don't get a .mov video download from the cognitone site on the desktop.
Perhaps even better to use the quicktime video, but that is not working too ..the download is not there on teh dsktop
Strange , because in the past i did it and all works well (flowplayer and .mov download) ..both are not working anymore..are these related?

Hi ok just checked with my ipad and it looks like there is something different from the old and new videos. The newer vids are hosted on youtube and on the ipad it plays them in the browser as an embedded clip. The older ones I get a message saying I don't have flash ( I don't) and I'm given a link to a QuickTime video. Check out the video for recording phrases, that's a QuickTime one

If I read your posts correctly, you have gone off and installed flowplayer? I think your problem is related to this. The flowplayer used by this site is just a flash 'swf' file which should be loading from a folder on the server here. It will cause your browser to invoke the flash player plugin which you have to install from adobe's website.
Maybe the flowplayer you have installed is interferring with that?
There are different installs of adobe flash, one for IE and one for other browsers, im not actually 100% sure how well the two work on the same machine.
Other things to check are your proxy settings? although you maybe forced by your isp to use a transparent proxy (i'd attempt if using IE, doing a Control-F5 to force any proxies to clear the page from their cache). Other than that it must be permissions on your machine.
You reported an error when installing flash... did you manage to install flash without error after reinstalling Windows 7?
I got a new PC....windows 7, windows 7 updates, flash and quicktime and i can view all videos on this site. You have a very strange issue !! Good luck

I ignored for a long time now the not working flowplayer, but now i do need to study the video about the pallette colorings ( the pallette has a function that shows the enclosed chords in a larger chord ! )
I installed Firefox webbrowser to get a idea what is going wrong, but i can nothing do with it, because i can't give meaning on it to the error.
Problem is i did already a reinstall of Windows 7 , but it did not solve this
Is it possible to get the video's as a zip download ?, also the quicktime (.mov) doesn't open the browser
When i try to open the .mov from the cognitone website it gives a white page with not to follow code ?
I try now update to explorer 10 ..this is a undesirable situation

Thanks !

Always nice to have new computerspecs (a upgrade for a mobo and processor could improve the 2d windows graphical performances more, because there were some glitches with Synfire ) ... in the past it was also normal working on my computer, but now even after a reinstall.. i don't get it working till now.
Adobe Flash uses the same version for explorer and firefox..this cannot be the problem
Let me reinstall Flash again and uses F5 to refresh the loaded webpage from Cognitone server
I use also explorer 10 now, perhaps not suited for windows 7, so i go back to a lower version again.
Let me look if this works out ..distracts me from being around with composing..unavoidable with all those programs.

Still searching how to fix this
http://flash.flowplayer.org/plugins/streaming/pseudostreaming.html
I tried 3 browsers : explorer,chrome,firefox , but nothing works and firefox gives a error : "declaration ingnored" when i try to download the quicktime movie from Cognitone : has it something to do with security from the browser firefox ?
This is really a terrible error: Cognitone are saying that it is working on their computer the flowplayer..a reinstall by me of windows 7 ( not only for the flowplayer at that time ) did not work too .
In the past it was working..has it to do with the new virusscanner than ? .. i give a cognitone as url to bypass
But the internet is full off : 200 stream not found netstream.play.streamnotfound errors ..so that gives no confidence
Stalemate situation .. a webdesigner expert can trace down the error what is wrong, but not me exactly.
The only solution is for now is to get the .mov video as zip file from their server ?
The manual from synfire is not explaining all those things you can do with the chord pallette ( coloring chords and more)
I need some information about how to split the C6add9 ( and more )( 5 note chords) in subchords and with the palette it can be done.
By the way i realize that Synfire express has no layered chord feature ( a fifth track or more uses all those chords from the layers ) , but for 4 tracks i can still combine chords
But i cannot work this out, because i don't know how to do it without the pallette video .

When you say you reinstalled win 7 did you just install over the top of the existing windows or did you wipe the disk and start again?
Is the error still the same? The 200 error net stream not found?
That error can be caused by the file on the server not being where it says it is on the web page but if this was true no one would be able to see the video, so this can't be the problem.
Another reason for the error is your firewall, browser or anti virus settings are stopping you from downloading the file.
It could also be the permissions on either flash or wherever it's trying to save the temp file. If the flash program is unable to save the buffer temp file, then it will probably report it can't find the source file. I can't remember where the permissions for flash are set but it might be in control panel. You can specify what resources on your machine it can use, ie cameras, mic, local storage,etc.
As well as fashion permissions, check you have your temp environment variable set and that you can write to it.
Lastly, empty your browser cache and delete the contents of the temp folder.

Also just in case you can't get it working... Make sure you ave QuickTime installed then right click on the following link and select save as... Save the file somewhere then double click it in windows explorer, it should then open QuickTime and play.

Thanks!

It was a new install of windows 7 with a new formatted harddisk
I can imagine that you think on this...if the same error occur
Is the error still the same? The 200 error net stream not found?
yes, also the same
Another reason for the error is your firewall, browser or anti virus settings are stopping you from downloading the file.
Possible ..has to further investigated..more
It could also be the permissions on either flash or wherever it's trying to save the temp file..........
Save the temp file ... right now i do have a red sign for the C harddisk too
Let me try this out

Strangely enough this is not working the whole time too : target save as ..gives a html file ( save as a html ., while it must be a .mov file )
Double clicking on the link opens white a page with cluttered unreadable code
Or do i miss here something ?
Fr., 29.03.2013 - 21:49 Permalink
if you are getting an html page when you try to save that link, then something either on your machine or between your machine and the cognitone server is intercepting your request. That is a link to a quicktime file not a webpage.
Do you have any software installed to 'hide' your ip address from web requests or otherwise hide what you are doing on the internet?
Does your router provide some sort of proxying or scanning for viruses? it might give a webpage to tell you the file is being downloaded and scanned, please wait type thing.
if your isp is transparently proxying your requests, you could try setting up a specific proxy in IE, this will hopefully bypass any isp proxy. From a google search, http://www.xroxy.com/proxylist.php?port=Standard&type=&ssl=&country=NL&latency=&reliability= has a list of proxies for the netherlands. Im not sure how well one that works on port 80 will bypass your isp's proxy (if this is the problem).

Not aware of .. no secret activities

i don't use a router, because there is one computer i do use a LAN
As i understand you want that i going to use a proxyserver for a new url ? ..i dont know if i do have already a proxyserver ?
(there are webbased and browserbased proxies )
Fr., 29.03.2013 - 22:26 Permalink
hiya, janamdo. You need a proxy that has a port number so you can set it up in ie under connections... it should be of the format ipaddress:8080 where 8080 is the port... you can use any but if its port 80 then it is likely to still get proxied by a transparent proxy somewhere.
Im not sure i understand what you mean by there is no router? I mean the box that connects you to the internet either directly connected to your pc or to the lan your pc connects to.
Fr., 29.03.2013 - 22:43 Permalink
Strange i must use now a proxyserver ?, while there is normally no need for in Windows 7.
Im not sure i understand what you mean by there is no router? I mean the box that connects you to the internet either directly connected to your pc or to the lan your pc connects to.
If you mean the cable router ..ah yes a cable modem ..is that also a router ?
I can reset this, but when there is no connection with internet only, than i must reset it ( tricky this one ..took me quite a long time to figure this out when encountered this the first time ..a long time a go..with a blank screen )
But there is a internet connection so "reset" is not neccessary.

Hi janamdo
Something is interfering in your ability to down load the .mov file. Itis possible it is the cognitone server but this is unlikely as others are not having the same problem as you or as frequently. If ie is finding a HTML file rather than a mov file, something has sent that. If it isn't the cognitone server and it isn't anything on your PC, it can only be something between your PC and the server.
Many ISPs use transparent proxies to reduce the amount of bandwidth they need to link to the Internet. By specifying an external proxy, you will communicate from your PC to the proxy in a way that yor ISP can not cache on their proxies. This assumes they are running transparent proxies and some are misbehaving.
I've had this problem with my ISP years ago when their proxies got some corrupted files stuck in their cache and whenever you tried to download those files I would be sent the copies the ISP had rather than going to the real web site. It was more complicated as it depended which load balanced proxy replied instead of the real server, so sometimes it would work and others fail.
Based on what you've said so far I can't think of anything else that would result in an HTML file arriving on your PC instead of a mov file.

Hi Blacksun

Yes ..the browser
so sometimes it would work and others fail.
Yes a long time ago i had also a affair that i do want to hide my url ( ah, yes that was a proxyserver..forgotten ), but i remember it was not hassle free if you use free proxies and given the fact that is must be working under normal conditions in windows 7
I am now also doing some new configurations for the flashplayer because the internet flowplayer needs a flash player
So it boils down to the browser, flash player configurations or virus scanner , firewall, etc
Right now i am doing a new configuration for the flashplayer..lets look what this does?
Thanks for your support!

Ok solved!..seems..the video is playing again.
I got a another virusscanner for one year free from the computer magazine, this is the culprit.
In internet explorer 10 is it possible to to investigate on errors .. i tried some options and ideas, gotten from the forum.
Than i bypass the virus software, but what section of the virus software is responsible for the malfuctioning of the browser ?
I used for years Norton antivirus without problems and this testvirusscanner has the same price and functionality, but it never distorted the url of the video.
Strange enough the virussoftware has all sections installed and the videoplayer is working..than it has to do with some
configuration chances of the flashplayer.. seems to me a logical direction
Problem i did not know that there were configuration options to perform.. online as user for the flashplayer..nasty software problem, but solved it seems finally..i cannot punish the program for this..that 's what i miss
It works like charm now the flowplayer .. let's go further with composing and master the suspended and added note chords as a extension of the ordinairy common triads.
"Subtriads" in the palette configuration shows the embedded chords in these chords.
I can recommand the book: harmony for computermusicians ..master this first and than go to advanced harmony
Cheers
