Embedding .avi file on an iView

Goodday gurus,
Need advice on this. How can i embed a movie file on an iview in the portal? At the moment i've uploaded a .htm file in a KM Folder. In that .htm file, i've added a code to embed the .avi file. Then, i created a KM Document iview. Unfortunately, when i preview the newly created iview, i can only see a blank media player screen which was embedded. I can't seem to play the file.
The weird thing is that, when i tried to launch the .htm file in my PC, its working just fine. The probelem is only when i attached it to an iview.
Any suggestions?
Regards

of course.
2.: in the portal, go to ContentAdministration->KMDocs
choose any rep you like (go with "documents") then upload (folder->new->upload) your video.
Supposed you put the doc under "/documents/test.avi", you can now reach it via: "/irj/go/km/docs/documents/test.avi". so this is the URL you want to use as embed src.
3.: the HTTP Provider Service has to be configured in the Visual Administrator tool. Perhaps its best you go with sol. 2 first. If your interested in (3), take a moment to go through the documentation under "http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/8c/541eed26ef934cb161ed0b65a050ee/frameset.htm"

  • Playing embedded AVI files on Mac

    I know there are players and codecs out there to play avi files on a Mac. But those are all stand alone players (I believe...like VLC).
    I have the updated version of quicktime and I believe all the codecs to play avi files, but I was wondering if there is anything else out there that will play avi files that are embedded in to a basic HTML page? When I load certain pages, all I get is the QUICKTIME "Q" with a question mark in the middle.
    Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    to be able to see videos of all the formats you don't have to, but in order to export movies from one file type to the other I think you do. You can export them without getting the full version but it has a very large watermark on the videos saying "Made with Flip4Mac" or something like that.
    but for normal usage as a way to watch movies with quicktime, no you don't have to upgrade.

  • Mute Audio Track of Embedded .avi File

    Using iDVD, I created a slideshow with many pictures and .avi files. Because I'm using a background soundtrack, I would like to mute/delete the audio tracks of the .avi files embedded in the slideshow. Is this possible? If so, how?

    hey there Mark,
    you'd need to use iMovie. i prefer to build slide shows in iMovie6 as it's easier to use use for "more advanced editing". if you have iLife 08 you can dl iMovie 6 here: http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/imovieHD6.html.
    good luck.

  • Embedded avi content – default playback on built-in flash player instead of quicktime?

    Hello, I am creating a pdf book with hundreds of audio clips embedded.  Because Indesign can't import mp3, I actually had to convert all my mp3 files to avi files without video, then import those into the indesign document for export to pdf. I used avi because it uses an mp3 codec (??) and keeps each sound file at 300k compared to 4mb for the same file as an swf or wav. Size is important because the book has 800 clips in total.  So that was my first question.  Would anyone have done something different?  Well now I have a second issue.  When Indesign exports to pdf, the avi files (embedded) are set to automatically open with the built-in quicktime player.  And I noticed that the embedded avi files are identified as "quicktime content." This would be ok with me if the quicktime player played the files, but it doesn't; it just freezes when I click on the file.  Now, of course, I can manually change each avi file in the pdf to open with the built-in flash player, and that works fine, and that's the player I'd like the files to open with, but this is impossible as a solution because if I have to edit this document in a month or so, I would then have to manually change the properties (rendition) of all the avi files again in the new pdf.  As it is now, when I open the pdf and select the avi object then click properties, then edit rendition, I see that quicktime has been chosen as the default. Is there a way to export from indesign to pdf so that the preferred player of avi files is not set automatically to quicktime, and instead to flash player? I hope I've described the issues clearly.  Any thoughts would be appreciated.

    Hi Chris,
    Hardware acceleration on or off makes absolutely no difference, i recently tried watching videos in a 100% fresh install and new profile in firefox (no addons) and the problem still occurs albiet a little slower in the new install, ie it takes a little longer to drop out of synch.
    There is a noticeable difference in framerate just before the problem occurs, like a very tiny hiccup, from that point on the audio gets left further and further behind, it's remedied by clicking back a few seconds on the video play bar but this is only temporary, lately i've even noticed it happening with live streams from the BBC, once again i must stress, this doesn't happen in Chrome or Opera or IE.

  • Audio files not embedding with .avi files in CS4

    I am working on a project in Premiere Pro CS4. I successfully captured with firewire a number of clips and the audio embedded with the clip ( one .avi file shows up in explorer under the project. When I went back into the project, first, there was no audio captured at all and I did'nt notice until I had captured half of the clips (45 minutes). I don't know what happened there. Now, the audio is attached to the .avi file, but is not embedded like the previous captured files.   Example First capture: File Name : Harlem 01.avi  audio is embedded   2nd Capture  Guilford 01.avi  and Guilford 01. Stereo 1.wav
    Why aren't the .avi files and the audio files embedded and combined as one file anymore?
    Thanks for any help.
    Jimi

    >Matrox card
    The comment I have often seen is to the effect that "a Matrox card makes a good door stop"
    For a Firewire transfer you don't need any "card" at all, only a Firewire port... usually on the motherboard
    That said... and you mentioning switching back and forth between different Matrox modes... I would guess that, yes, you selected a wrong option
    But, since I don't use Matrox, I have no idea what setting could be wrong (I do use a Pinnacle Dv500 via dual boot with WinXP to digitize some old VHS tapes before they stop playing... but once I had settings that worked to create AVI files that ARE Audio Video Interleave with everything in one file, I have never changed any of the Dv500 settings)

  • Hi, my mac has stopped playing some avi files (that used to work). I can see the video. Does anyone know why and what i can do? My version of quicktime is 7.6.9.

    Hi i have avi files saved in iphoto that i used to be able to play through quicktime. However in the last few weeks i cannot play many of these files. I can see the videos and click on them but nothing happens (i have version 7.6.9 of quicktime). Does anyone know why this has happened and what i can do about this?
    Thanks.

    What do you mean by what audio/video formats are involved? These are all files from several digital cameras.
    As previously stated, AVI is a file container. It is somewhat old and its originator, Microsoft, dropped official support of it over a decade ago. However, it remains popular with PC users since almost any valid audio and/or video compression format can be stuffed to the file which synchronizes the content by interleaving the individual audio and video frames. The compression format is the specific manner in which the audio and video data are encoded as it is placed in the AVI container. You can find the compression format by inspecting the file in the Finder "Info" window, or in the "Inspector" window of the QT player (or other media player) if the file can be opened.
    For instance, one popular compression combination would be to place DivX encoded video and MP3 audio in an AVI file container. However, neither DivX nor MP3 is natively supported by the QT player. (Although iTunes will natively support the MP3 audio.) Therefore, people who wish to play such files in the QT 7 Player would normally install either the DivX component or Perian but not both. Either installation will independently play such files in the QT Player, but if both are installed, the file will usually stop working since these two codecs can create a playback conflict.
    However, the AVI container could just as easily contain DV along with DV audio. In this case, the file should play correctly in QT since this compression format is natively supported by the basic component configuration that comes in every current OS installation. Therefore, if such files suddenly stopped playing, this could be an indication that a component has been moved or deleted or that your system or QT embedded structure has become corrupted.

  • I am having a terrible time trying to convert my Quick Time file to an AVI file to use in a powerpoint presentation.  Any suggestions?  I am getting Error .43 file not found?

    I am having a terrible time trying to convert my QT file to an AVI file so I can use in PowerPoint.  I am getting Error 43 File not Found, any suggestions?

    Hi Jenna,
    The error your getting suggests a file path problem.
    How are you embedding the movie in PP and where is the movie file located relative to the PP file? Are you getting this error within PP when the slide containing the embedded video is displayed?
    If you embed a movie and then move it or change its name then PP will generate this error.

  • Import of AVI files

    I did a search and can see this has been discussed before, but it's still not clear to me how I can solve it. My camera produces video clips in .AVI format. I can play in quicktime, I can import and edit in iMovie HD, but the files won't import in iMovie 08. What can I do? I saw some suggestion to get visual hub. Is this the best/only solution?
    Anyway, I find it amazing that Apple would make an update of iMovie that won't import old iMovie HD projects. What if Microsoft updated word so it cannot edit old documents?

    My camera produces video clips in .AVI format. I can play in quicktime, I can import and edit in iMovie HD, but the files won't import in iMovie 08.
    Basically, there are three levels of compatibility here -- playback, conversion, and edit:
    1) Some files (like MPEG-1) can be played by QT applications but cannot be properly converted to other formats (e.g., MPEG-1 loses its audio) or be edited (requires an MPEG based "engine") since data is synchronized spatially using blocks of audio data interspersed with blocks of video data in a single data stream while QT requires parallel streams of data synchronized temporally.
    2) Other files (like an AVI with M-JPEG video and DVI ADPCM audio) are conversion compatible. That is they can both be played by QT application and converted to other compression formats by them but cannot be edited. Contrary to what you seem to think, your files are not edited in iMovie HD as AVI. Instead, they are converted to DV as part of the import process and are edited as such. On the other hand, iMovie '08 edits in a number of "native" compression formats and assumes you will only import compatible compression formats so it does not perform an automatic conversion to any of the possible edit compatible formats as it doesn't know which one you may wish to use, what settings you would prefer, or how much time you are willing to invest for a return in terms of quality.
    3) Lastly, out of the hundreds or even thousands of possible audio/video compression combinations, on a few can be edited at the frame level. (I.e., iMovie is a frame level editor not a GOP (Group of Pictures), "muxed" content editor. For instance, if your digital camera saved its AVI file using M-JPEG video and say Unsigned Integer audio, your file would be edit compatible in their AVI container and import without a problem (or at least they used to do so).
    Or, can I use QT pro? The problem with that is there is no trial. So, I might buy it and then it does not work for me,
    It would as long as you have the proper decode component installed whether Perian, DivX, 3ivX, from your digital camera manufacturer, etc. But why spend the money if you don't have to? You can always download the free MPEG Streamclip utility which accesses the same QT components and QT structure embedded in the Mac OS as QT Pro.

  • .swf file as an iView

    Dear SDN Community,
      I have .swf file(demo recording) which was required to put it in the Portal as an iView. For this I have created a folder named Demo in Public Folders in "KM Content" and copied the .swf file. Now, I got the URL for the doucment I have copied in the demo folder and created a URL iView with the URL being /irj/portal/..../../demo.swf.
       This works fine in Firefox but when I tried to open this iView in IE it opens with the URL http://<<server>>:<<port>>/irj/portalapps/com.sap.portal.navigation.toplevel/html/child.html and closes in 15 sec. Can you please advice me here how I can display the .swf file as an iView in IE.
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    As already said use KM Doc IView, also check these threads:

  • Open AVI files using Adobe Acrobat

    how can i increase play speed in adobe acrobat ?
    thanks.

  • Where is the captured avi file ?

    After capturing footage in iMovie , how do I access the raw AVI file ? It seems to be embedded in iMovie in the clips pane , but I want to access it so I can do a backup burn to DVD of the footage as a raw file .
    Do i have to save it as an avi file ?

    The Druid,
    You can drag clips from iMovie to your desktop and they'll be copied there.
    Alternatively, you can select your iMovie project and control-click or right-click and choose Show Package Contents. Your clips will be in the Media folder.
    Just be careful poking around in there. It's an easy way to wreck your project if you move or delete something you shouldn't.
    Also, copying your entire iMovie project file is another effective means of creating a back up of your media.

  • Can´t play avi files

    I used to play AVI files on my Mac and Mac Book Pro but recently anything change that I can't play the same or new AVI files. I used to play it on Power Point presentations but right now I can't play with Quick Time. I can do it with VLC and also in other new Mac Book Pro with the same OS (10.8). What happen, anybody knows?

    Finally I found the problem. It was related to the DivX soft. My new .AVI files doesn't play (neither Quick Time nor embedded in Power Point presentations) because any conflict with DivX. When I uninstalling the program all my .AVI files returned to play normally.

    My QuickTime player us not playing .avi files and says I need a codec I can't play no .avi files on QuickTime. How could I fix this because I want to play these files with QuickTime.

    Hmm . . . comes with a Utility MPEG2 Component ML app with no explanation of what it's for?
    The utility app is an "assistant PKG installer." It allows Lion and Mountain Lion users to install the older QT MPEG-2 Playback Component installer PKG file which is not allowed to run on its own under Lion or Mountain Lion since these operating systems already have a QT X only MPEG-2 component embedded in the QT embedded structure. Without this utility you would have to either copy the component from an older system to your Lion or Mountain Lion system, use Pacifist for installation, or manually open the PKG contents and transfer the component to the appropriate component folder.
    As to your "discussion" regarding the playback of AVI file types, there are really only two strategies here:
    1) You can add component support so that QT can play the files natively or
    2) You can convert the file contents to compression formats that are natively compatible with the unmodified QT component configuration.
    Each user should decide for his or her own self which approach best suits their needs for a particular source file. In most cases, conforming the system's codec component configuration to play the source file directly results in higher video quality since no transcoding takes place but this strategy will not work if a codec which is required is not available for the user's operating system. On the other hand, converter utilities tend to support more built-in codecs and are easier to use since the user does not have to concern him or herself with the nature of the particular source compression formats but at the risk of some potential loss in visual quality. As to what converter to use, once again this is a matter of personal choice. In the case of commercial converters like iSkysoft, the codecs are built in while MPEG Streamclip accesses the host operating system's QT codec component configuration. I personally prefer the free HandBrake app for AVI, MKV, TS, MTS, and M2TS conversions since it has an exceptionally full-featured X.264 GUI with some user options that 97% of users are likely to never use.

  • How can I play .avi files, how can I play .avi files

    how can I play >avi files on Mavericks?

    This did solve my question.  I'm not happy with the actions necessary to get the avi file to play, but it works.  I was delivering a presentation with an embedded avi video file to a workplace audience and all of a sudden the transition from powerpoint is not "seamless" anymore, but it is better than not having the movie presentation.
    Mavericks is not a big improvement for me, and this is not the first cumbersome step I've encountered.  I would not recommend a leam to Mavericks unless there is something you really need.  It's not all Apple's fault, as third party app providers are not keeping their product up -to-date, but we don't have computers for the fancy OS, we have it for the apps.

  • Is it possible to slowdown an embedded .avi movie in an .fla?

    Hello,
    My appologies for posting something that might get brought up often, but I've looked and can't seem to find a direct answer for this...
    Our graphic designer has embedded a spinning globe .avi movie into an .fla, but it's too fast.
    Is it possible to somehow add actionscript to the .avi file embedded in the .fla so that it slows down a bit??
    Thanks,

    I would think you can bring the .mov into the timeline and make your split and add your pictures. You will have to adjust the audio obviously.
    Good luck.
