Playing movie clips one after the other

Hello, I am trying to figure out how to play several movie clips one after the other. Each clip has animation in it. When I drag the clip on the main timeline the timeline plays the frame but does not play the contents of the movie. how do I get it to play the contents of the first movie then play the contents of the second movie which is in frame 2 and so on?
Thank you

do you mean in the authoring environment you don't see nested movieclips play when scrubbing the timeline? if yes, that cannot be changed. if you used graphic symbols (instead of movieclips), you can see nested graphics play when scrubbing a parent timeline (if the parent timeline has sufficient frames).

Play local videos one after the other

Hi - I'm setting up 10 videos locally in Dreamweaver to play one after the other. By local I mean everything is on a the computer and you just open up the HTML page in Chrome and it works. When the HTML opens in Chrome, I got the first video to auto play and loop too. But after video #1 ends, I need it for the 2nd video to start, then third, and so on until the 10th is over then it goes back to #1 again.
The code I have on the local HTML page is and it works for one video is:
<video width="720" height="406" controls autoplay loop>
<source src="1E.mp4" type="video/mp4">
<object data="1E.mp4" width="720" height="406">
</object>
</video>
...but I just can't figure out how to get the other 9 videos in there so they play after #1 then loop back to #1 again.
Does anyone have any idea how to do this? Thanks.

Hooking up the computer to the TV is the easy part :-)
I tried getting a windows media playlist set up and although I like that player, it seemed difficult to make a simple playlist in it. Unless I wasn't reading the instructions correctly, I couldn't get it to work.
I also like QT but it seems like you need to buy the QT Pro version as the basic player doesn't seem to allow for playlists (unless i'm missing something).
If I could get either of the above to work and play these videos locally over and over I'm set. But because I had problems with WMV and you have to pay for QT Pro that's why I'm trying to build something locally in DW.

Play 2 sounds one after the other

Hello. I have 2 sound files - each is 0.5[Sec]. I have a function the gets a string that represents 1's and 0's. I try to play the 2 sound file in according to its state: 1 or 0. But - only the first sound file is played. Where am I wrong?
public void PlayString(string sb)
for (int i = 0; i < sb.Length; i++)
if (sb[i] == '1' && state == MediaState.Stopped)
myMedia.Source = new Uri("/SoundsFolder/450Hz.wav", UriKind.RelativeOrAbsolute);
myMedia.Play();
else if (sb[i] == '0' && state == MediaState.Stopped)
myMedia.Source = new Uri("/SoundsFolder/850Hz.wav", UriKind.RelativeOrAbsolute);
myMedia.Play();
myMedia.Stop();

Hi Rob, as you can see my experience in not wide enough but I appreciate that you and your friends are wasting your time, trying to answer my "silly" questions. :) thanks again.
Now, as you wrote above the loop realy "freezes" the UI and tht is bad. I'll post my MainPage.Xaml.Cs :
As I said, I've to operate the
CurrentStateChanged event but because the loop nothing seemed to work and
now I got stuck. Thanks a lot Rob

Playing multiple movie clips one after other on main timeline

Excuse the probably simple question but I'm just starting off with Flash.
I have imported a few video trailers directly into flash and saved them as movie clips.
I want to be able to insert these movie clips onto the main timeline and play them one after the other, repeating once they have all played.
On the main timeline I have set a layer for each clip and a keyframe where the clip is inserted for each layer.
When I go to play the flash file, it is showing the first frame from each movie file and then moving to the first frame of the next movie file.
What do I need to do to make flash play the entire movie file in that specific frame before moving to the next frame where the next movie file is and playing all that movie?
Sorry for what is probably a simple thing to ask.
thanks

Create an actions layer on the main timeline and place stop(); commands on that layer in each frame where a movieclip resides.
Within in each movieclip, at the end (last frame) you want to tell the main timeline to play(); so that it moves to the next frame (where it will stop because of the stop() commands you add).
So at the end of each movieclip you will put either:
for AS2: _parent.nextFrame();
for AS3: MovieClip(parent).nextFrame();
For the last movieclip in the lineup you will replace nextFrame() with gotoAndStop(1);

How do I get very short movies to play one after the other?

How do I get very short movies to play one after the other?
I have some video tutorials to show me how to use software on the Mac.
When a short 4 min. video is finished - I have to double click the next one.
There must be a way to have continuous playing of movies back to back...
I've looked - I am sure it's obvious...
Help please. Thanks!

make them type 'Music Video', and add info on artist to group them, then play them.

Have clips automatically plan continuously one after the other...

I have created a iDVD project. In this project I have 8 different clips that I want to have play one after the other without having to go back to the title and choose the next clip. Is there a way to have them play as in "Play All". Thank you in advance.

I assume you already have your petal design replicated with a Circle arrangement and the Align Angle option checked. You will also need to check 3D.
Go to Behaviors > Replicator and add the Sequence Replicator.
In Sequence Replicator: Add > Position. Dial down the Position pane and ramp up the Z parameter (you need to go up to at least 2400 to start behind the default camera view.) Set the Sequencing to From and the Unit Size to Object. Adjust the Spread to taste. You can change the direction of the sequence by going back into the Replicator inspector and selecting Build Style: Counter Clockwise from the dropdown menu.

How do you get iTunes purchased songs to automatically play one after the other

How do you get iTunes purchased songs to play automatically one after the other without having to hit play for each song ? Also I lost all my pictures on my iPad when I installed iOS 7 upgrade. Any way to get them back? Thanks. Dr Ron.

Hi Dr. Ron,
By your question, I am wondering if you are playing your music from the iTunes app rather than the Music app?
In the Music App, you can go to any of the options at the bottom and click on a song to play and it will then continue to play the songs in that category. You can also select "Shuffle" to shuffle them.
As for your Photos, did you have them backed up anywhere?
Cheers,

IPhone 5. Prior to the iPhone 5, I could listen to podcasts one after the other without doing anything. Now it will only play one podcast at a time, then I have to click on the next one. Not a great feature when driving. TIA, Sarah

How do I get it to just play through all the podcasts that I've downloaded just like my 1st gen?
Group and order your podcasts to a playlist. Then play them from the playlist.

Can you set the i pod to play albums one after the other as it seems to stop once its played the one album!! :-(

can you set the i pod to play albums one after the other as it seems to stop once its played the one album!! :-( thanks

Unfortunately that is the way the interface is designed. If you select an album from the albums menu, then it plays an album, optionally shuffled and/or repeated. If you select from the artists menu then you should be able to shuffle the albums or songs by that artist or have them played in sequence, again with options to repeat. You can also cue up a number of songs or albums with the On-the-Go playlist feature.

Podcasts - getting them ALL to play (one after the other)...

I have several podcasts on my ipod (video and audio). How can it to play them in succession (the first one ends, the 2nd postcast starts, and so on..). I have CNN news for a video podcast. I watch one day of news. It ends then stops and brings me back to the main menu of the podcast. I have to scroll down and goto the 2nd day and watch. Then repeat. I'd like to just watch them all in row, one after the other. How can I do this???
My own Windows XP

I started doing this some time ago and it worked very well. However, this last week or so when I go to Music:Playlist:Podcast and play (not select) it doesn't play now. Before it would go through one podcast after another. I may have changed a shuffle/repeat setting but the other playlists work. I recently installed iQuiz a great 'game' but there were reports of it changing settings.
Any thoughts? David

Playing Podcasts one after the other

I subscribe to a few podcasts that are "song of the day" They download and I play the songs but I would like to play them one after the other like I do with normal songs in my library.
I play one song then have to go back in iTunes and click to play the next ...
I try highlighting a bunch and no luck. Then made a playlist of the podcast songs and again only one will play.
Any thoughts?
Thanks

I see. Thanks for the info! At least now I know I'm not just missing a simple menu setting somewhere.
Are you (by any chance) saying that you have a video iPod, not a Classic?
actually I have both I have a Classic in my car, and a video one for travel. Both have the same issue but since it turns out they handle this differently, I wanted to know if the workaround posted for the Classic might have a counterpart in the video one... Thanks again!

Want podcasts in Playlist to play one after the other

Friends:
I want to have all the podcasts in my playlist play one after the other. I read in some other post about creating an on-the-go playlist using the "enter" button.
Can someone please explain what this means and how to do it? I'm a bit lost with just that information.
Thanks,
Migs

Well...repeat will make the entire list play over and over. I understood that you wanted a list of podcasts where you could start the first one and have the list play through without stopping after each one.
Oftentimes, people will put their podcasts into a playlist and can't figure out why the first one plays and then stops, not automatically continuing on to the next podcast. The default on iTunes will set podcasts to Skip When Shuffling. So, if a user has a tendency to use the Shuffle feature, then their playlist is going to show 1 of 1, play one podcast and then stop. To avoid this, you need to select the podcasts and deselect Skip When Shuffling. (And make sure that Shuffle is turned off.)
Does that make sense?

Is it possible to play TV show episodes one after the other on Itouch?

My Ipod gen3 would automatically play episodes one after the other but my Itouch goes back to the list and I have to manually select the next episode. They are all set up with the proper Show, Year, Episode, etc. Is there a setting selection I'm missing?

Perhaps you may have heard EyeTV and thought it was AppleTV? EyeTV from Elgato lets you connect external video devices and pipe the video to your Mac display:

Making PodCasts play one after the other...?

They will repeat indivigually (sp?) but not one after the other.
Any help would be nice!

If you create a playlist of the podcasts that you want to listen to, then play the playlist, that might work....it does on the iPod.

How to have it keep playing podcasts one after the other, automatically?

This may be a stupid question... I have a bunch of podcasts on my iPod. I find that when listening (through the "Podcasts" menu on the iPod, not a separate playlist I made myself), when one is finished, it stops and I have to pick it up and ask it to start the next one. How do I get it to just keep going (one after the other)?
