Looping Quicktime Movies in Keynote & Keeping them Looped when Rendered

Okay I have a quicktime movie that I am using as the background of my slide show. I have text fly in and out over the movie. I can get the movie to loop when I view the slideshow but when I try to export the slideshow to Quicktime the Background quicktime movie only plays once and then stops. I want the quicktime background to continue to loop when I render the entire slideshow to quicktime. And yes I have checked the loop box in the quicktime tab in the inspector window. Please Help!

Yes, it is one slide with layered builds going in and out. The first 2 times I tried this it worked then on the same keynote file it stopped working on the second render and now it does not work even if I create a new file.
While I do understand that I could make my slideshow, time it and loop the movies together in iMovie I do not feel that I should have to render two separate things loosing quality on each render because of the time aspect.
Why would it work and all of a sudden stop? I should not have to go through iMovie making loops and rendering things twice when Keynote should be working.

Looping Background Movie Clip

Hi i am having trouble with having a looping background movie
clip on the bottom layer of my flash project. I have it on the
bottom layer in the first frame, above it i have some menus fading
in and it seems as though once it gets to this scene, it just plays
the movie clip over and over and never goes to the 2nd frame of my
scene. Is there anyway to have a looping background movie clip
inside of flash 8?
Thank you in advance,
Tyler

You can use a variable to keep count of how many times you loop, and until it exceeds a particulr value (2 or 3) you execute a setTimeout() call that waits for however long you want to delay and then tells the movieclip to gotoAndPlay(1).
So in the first frame you would establish the counting variable...
var count;
if(count == undefined){ // only set it to 0 once
count = 0;
and in the last frame you would do your incrementing and control....
stop();
count += 1;
if(count < 3){
setTimeout(waitABit, 2000); // call function in 2 secs
function waitABit(){
gotoAndPlay(1);

How do I loop a movie for Apple TV

I have looked at the archives and I cannot get it to work the way it is explained.
I have saved a QT movie with Loop checked. It loops fine after it is saved before I send it to iTunes
When I send it to iTunes it will not loop. For some reason when I create a Playlist with the movie in it and ask it to repeat it does not show up in the playlist when I want to send it to Apple TV.
Any help would be appreciated..I'm getting frustrated!
Thanks
Kris

How did you do that?
I have been waiting for a solution to loop my movie in Apple TV.
What versions of iTunes, Apple TV, did you use?
Thanks millions in advance...

Looping a Movie on my Apple Tv

I want to loop a movie on my apple tv! Asked this question couple of times but nobody seems to know the answer. Can anyone help me please.
Thanx Vic

you can't actually loop a movie.
what you can do though is create a playlist in itunes and put the movie in it multiple times.
then sync the playlist to the appletv and play it.
what you get essentially is the movie looping although technically it is just playing a playlist.

HELP! IE looping flash movies

My company's intranet home page has two flash movies on it
set to play once.
Some kind of Microsoft patch was initiated over the weekend
company wide and
now IE loops the movies. The source code has the loop set to
false but IE is
ignoring it. If you right click on the4 flash the loop is
checked.
Unchecking it fixes the problem but you have to do it every
time the page is
loaded. Anyone know what is going on?
Thanks
mark

I don't know why that is happening, but putting a stop();
action on the last frame should keep the movie from looping. It is
a hard issue to solve without seeing the problem first hand, but
since it is on your intranet that isn't going to happen.

How do I display a live webpage (live data feed) as part of my looping flash movie.

G'Day All, I've been tasked with creating a flash movie for a client (3 scenes, some text and images) simple enough, the challenge is one of the scenes needs to display a live page from a locally hosted website (it's a graphic display of a live data feed from a solar panel array on the roof). What I need to know is how do I set up the flash file to display the live page as one of the scenes of my looping movie? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Cheers, Ben.

Why they've removed it ?
Apple have appeared to have made some strange decisions with Keynote 6.1, features missing or not working.
We are told to wait for the updates to correct these anomalies during the first half of 2014.

Looping a movie clip a specific number of times in Flash

Does anyone know how to get a movie clip to loop a specific number of times in Flash? I know how to stop a movie clip from looping by using the this.stop (); command by placing the command in a separate Action Script layer, in a keyframe, inside of the movie clip's timeline. This allows the movie clip to play through once and then stop. But I need for the movie clip to loop more than once, maybe 2 or 3 times, and then go back to the main timeline. Does anyone know the code for this?
Also, is it possible to place a pause (I'm guessing, maybe by using a timer of some type?) between the loops, so that the movie will pause a couple of seconds before it loops again and then stop? Please note I do not need the movie clip to stop when there's an event like a rollover or anything. I just need it to play a couple of times, pause between plays and then stop and go back to the main timeline. Please let me know if anyone can help.
Thanks,
Sarah
P.S. Is there a good, easy to use, reference book anyone can recommend for creating specific things in Flash using Action Script? Do you guys have a favorite for beginners like me?

You can use a variable to keep count of how many times you loop, and until it exceeds a particulr value (2 or 3) you execute a setTimeout() call that waits for however long you want to delay and then tells the movieclip to gotoAndPlay(1).

QUALITY - .MOVs to Encore, but video quality horrible -- DVD

Hello,
I am a newbie to Encore and video processing, alike - I'm hoping that someone can enlighten me in the ways of High Definition/working with conversion to DVD in Encore.
I'm currently working on making a DVD with a main menu which links to a main feature, Previews, Contact screen and chapters. All of the items for these categories were originally .SWFs and have been converted to .MOVs (using the Moyea SWF to Video pluggin). Not sure if that makes a difference, but the DVD has been completed without any problems, works well in the preview, comes out in the specified 16:9 ratio and links properly. Here is where I feel like I'm walking around in smoke: I would like to build to DVD so that it can be viewed on the Computer as well as TV. But I really want High grade quality video. It seems to me that their was a slight loss of quality from .Swf to .MOV, so I've tried experimenting with everything from the Encore Settings, reading numerous posts on this site and using different conversion formats (MOV, AVI and VOB). I loved the quality when I took the .SWFs to .VOB (however Encore still transcoded and in the end I lost the amazing clarity). After building, when I play the DVD on the computer the quality is a bit hazey (even exchanging the .VOBs for .MOVs.) As of now, my setting are as follows:
PROJECT TRANSCODE PRESETS:
MPEG2-DVD
High quality, VBR transcoding for progressive-frame content (max bit rate =9)
25 fps (the .swfs were built at 24 fps - does this matter?)
quality 5.0
192 kbps, 48kHz, Dolby Digital
VBR, 2 Pass, Min 1.50, target 7.00, Max. 9.00 mbps
Field order: none (progressive
16:9
min bitrate: 1.5
target bitrate: 7
Max bitrate: 9
M frames: 3
N Frames: 12
Video Noise Reduction has been checked and pushed to 100
Deinterlaced was also checked
(what am I doing wrong?)
Right now, I'm so determined to get the best quality - So, I've begun exporting the entire Encore project to .SWF to see if this will do the trick. In the meantime, how can I build to DVD with the highest quality possible?
Than you all in advance.

This is correct, the .swf/.flv files are so compressed that you will only retain the quality of the origional file at best. I've tried this for months and about a Terabyte of files and have found only 1 way to get a good quality DVD from an .flv/.swf.
Connect 1 computer to a TV to play the .swf/.flv. Connect the out connector from the TV to another computer with Premiere installed via the graphics card and then capture the video as it is playing in premiere in the highest quality you can. This can make 30 minutes of compressed .swf into a 10+GB DVD video file. Then after capture, edit and send/export to Encore, make your DVD and then encode like normal.
This has been the highest quality DVD from .swf/.flv that I have been able to achieve.

Looping flash movie

I have created a flash website... on the first page i want to
enter a simple motion tween movie( i imported it)... i can do that
but it keeps looping... i unchecked Loop in html and added stop();
in the last keyframe but still the movie loops any ideas how to
stop this??? I am using flash 8
ps im inserting a flash movie within a flash movie(this
should not make a diference)
here is what i have found.... i am trying to replace an image
in a flash website with a movie... it continuously loops it appears
you need to add the Stop(); asctionscript wilthin the website and
not the move (.swf) imported.... thats where the problem lies is it
not possible to add Stop(); in the movie itself???? I have tried
this and it does not work???
Puzzled

If the offending loop is from the main timeline of the
imported swf and on the last keyframe of that timeline you entered
a stop(); and that didn't help maybe you should call an exorcist.
Or maybe there is another timeline in the imported swf that's
looping like a MovieClip?

How do I convert a .gif into a looping Quicktime .mov? I have Quicktime Pro

I want to know how do I convert a .gif into a looping .mov? is this even possible?
Thank you in advance for your reply to my Post,
Sebastian

Yes and no.
It was easy to assign a "transparency" color in previous versions of QuickTime Pro. Just open the "Color Wheel", pick your color and QuickTime Pro would use it to mask your .gif file.
In version 7 you only get to use a "mask" (useless on a motion graphic like an animated gif) or pick either a "level" of opacity (also shows the background).
Open the Movie Properties window (Pro only) and highlight the video track.
Click the "Visual Settings" tab and you'll notice "Transparency" options (lower left under the Mask).
Older versions of QT Pro also allowed "blends" of this transparent color.
I used to use a gaudy Pepto Bismol pink as my transparent color. Now I must be sure to include an alpha channel (black or white) in my imported images. This means your .gif must also either black or white as the transparent color.

Looping a .mov

How do you make a .mov automatically loop from FCP? I know with flash there is an option to do this, is there something similar in FCP?
Thanks.

In FCP, with your timeline selected, I believe it's either control-L or Shift-L to make it loop its playback...

Looping a movie in an iDVD burned disc

Is there a way to have a movie continuously loop on a DVD disc doing it from iDVD. I want the movie to simply start playing when put into a DVD player and continue to repeat. I don't need any themes or anything like that.
Thanks,
Ray

Drag the movie into the upper-left Autoplay box in the Map view. Click the box. Then go in to Advanced and select Loop Movie.

Cursor Fetch Loop to Move data from one table to another

Hi Gurus,
I need to write a cursor fetch loop PL/SQL procedure that moves all the data from the students table to student_history table. Can anyone tell me how to do this please?
Thanks

and the instructions were specific:"Write a PL/SQL procedure that moves all the data from the students table to student_history table. You should use CURSOR FETCH LOOP to retrieve the data"
Who in the world have given you that instruction? This person[s] should take their ABC learning too. I might have come up with 1001 ineffective and owful ways to perform some task, but to teach others to do it in the same way would be a bit arrogant. To copy the content of a table into another one in CURSOR FETCH LOOP is one of the worst solutions I've heard of. See
