Can a list of video names be used to trigger specific embedded type Videos?

I would like to make a list of video names (as opposed to picture thumbnails) that the user could select from to watch only those they wanted on the list?
These videos would come from YouTube, Vimeo, etc.
If so, please explain how.
If not, please explain why.
Ken

Hi Ken,
You can use a composition widget for the same. The only change you need to make is rather than having an image in the thumbnail, place the text that you want to use as a trigger for the video playback.
Cheers,
Vikas

  • I am trying to get a good copy of my home video on DVD using IDVD.  On editing the video all the viewing screens show the video perfectly in HD.  When I burn the video to DVD all the end results are buzzy with squiggly lines.  Any fix?  Thanks?

    Hi
    There are several layers to this Q
    A. There are no HD in DVD - DVD is as standard only SD-Video what ever tools used to produce it !
    iDVD or DVD-Studio Pro or Roxio Toast™ - will only make SD-Video on DVD
    B. DVD can be better or worse
    • Using "Share to iDVD" is no good way - Better is Share to Media Browser and as Large (NOT HD as result will be worse)
    • Using iMovie'08 or 09 or 11 - are not tools to chose if highes quality is of importance - iMovie up to HD6 or FinalCut any version is far better as they send over all lines to iDVD and not only every second one.
    • Using Right encoder quality depending on movie and Manu duration is very important
    • Use of high quality brand of DVD - is important - I use Verbatim DVD-R
    • Type of DVD - DVD-R plays on more DVD-Players (even old ones)
    • Burn speed - I set it down to x4 - resulting in less burn errors - plays on more players
    • I secure a minimum of 25Gb free space on Start-Up Mac OS hard disk as iDVD and Mac OS needs this and it can not be taked from other hard disks - has to be here.
    • What You feed iDVD does matter
    Video codecs
    Audio file formats

  • The font used in Adobe's touch type video

    Hey folks, I have a question for anybody who's watched the video for the Illustrator Touch Type tool. Can be found here: http://tv.adobe.com/watch/creative-cloud-for-design/discover-the-new-touch-type-tool-in-ad obe-illustrator-cc/
    In the video, Rufus started by typing in the word "CLIFFS." The illustrator bar says the font is Myriad Pro, which can't be right. Can anybody tell me the name of the first font that was used in the video? I tried What the font, but as you all must know how unreliable it is. If anybody knows, please let me know! Thanks.

    It looks like Gill Sans to me.

  • How can I adjust the file names when using the "export layers to files" Script in photoshop?

    Currently the standard set up adds "_0000s_0001_" in front of the layer names that I need the new files to use. I'm processing hundreds of images so I'd like to avoid selecting and deleting the extra characters one by one. Any way to automate this or set it correctly before exporting?

  • How can you keep the file name when using "Download Linked File As..."?

    I'm a longtime PC user finally making the transition to Mac.  Some of the tasks that seemed so simple in Windows have really stumped me!  One of the tasks I do frequently is download files into specific folders.  After much looking, I finally found the "Download Linked File As..." option if I right-click on the download link.  The problem is, when I choose this option, I lose the file name.  I get a window in which I can choose the desired folder, but the filename is always "0".  If I want to keep the filename (and I usually do), I have to type it in manually.  Is there anyway around this?

    You can post a screen shot by clicking on the liitle Camera icon above your reply.  :)
    Just checked on 10.7.4+, still the same, something is borked about your install, to see if we need to re-install...
    To find out if it's system wide or user specific, try this...
    Open System Preferences>Accounts, unlock the lock, click on the little plus icon, make a new admin account, log out & into the new account.
    Does it work in the new account?

  • How can I list all folders that contain files with a specific file extension? I want a list that shows the parent folders of all files with a .nef extension.

    not the total path to the folder containing the files but rather just a parent folder one level up of the files.
    So file.nef that's in folder 1 that's in folder 2 that's in folder 3... I just want to list folder 1, not 2 or 3 (unless they contain files themselves in their level)

    find $HOME -iname '*.nef' 2>/dev/null | awk -F '/'   'seen[$(NF-1)]++ == 0 { print $(NF-1) }'
    This will print just one occurrence of directory
    The 'find' command files ALL *.nef files under your home directory (aka Folder)
    The 2>/dev/null throws away any error messages from things like "permissions denied" on a protected file or directory
    The 'awk' command extracts the parent directory and keeps track of whether it has displayed that directory before
    -F '/' tells awk to split fields using the / character
    NF is an awk variable that contains the number of fields in the current record
    NF-1 specifies the parent directory field, as in the last field is the file name and minus one if the parent directory
    $(NF-1) extracts the parent directory
    seen[] is a context addressable array variable (I choose the name 'seen'). That means I can use text strings as lookup keys.  The array is dynamic, so the first time I reference an element, if it doesn't exist, it is created with a nul value.
    seen[$(NF-1)] accesses the array element associated with the parent directory.
    seen[$(NF-1)]++ The ++ increments the element stored in the array associated with the parent directory key AFTER the value has been fetched for processing.  That is to say the original value is preserved (short term) and the value in the array is incremented by 1 for the next time it is accessed.
    the == 0 compares the fetched value (which occurred before it was incremented) against 0.  The first time a unique parent directory is used to access the array, a new element will be created and its value will be returned as 0 for the seen[$(NF-1)] == 0 comparison.
    On the first usage of a unique parent directory the comparison will be TRUE, so the { print $(NF-1) } action will be performed.
    After the first use of a unique parent directory name, the seen[$(NF-1)] access will return a value greater than 0, so the comparison will be FALSE and thus the { print $(NF-1)] } action will NOT be performed.
    Thus we get just one unique parent directory name no matter how many *.nef files are found.  Of course you get only one unique name, even if there are several same named sub-directories but in different paths
    You could put this into an Automator workflow using the "Run Shell Script" actions.

  • What applescript do I use to trigger to play a video in quicktime or itunes from MainStage 3?

    I am new to Mainstage 3... I have made a karaoke video to play along with live in logic pro x and can easily play along with a full screen video there, but want a program that is processing less so less can go wrong...  I bounce the video (+10 or so tracks) to a .mov file, and would like it to play when I press play on Mainstage 3.  I would then like to play and sing with that in Mainstage 3 with 2-3 inputs live (as opposed to the 10 or so audio tracks in logic (with plugins running) and the video with 2-3 live inputs it would be cleaner and easier for my macbook pro)...
    In complete honesty I have the tracks beatmapped in logic and would like Mainstage to keep that info as well, but after I've messed with Mainstage I sadly don't think that is what Mainstage was designed for...
    Anyways I've scowered all over the internet and it appears the only way to get Mainstage to play a video is by writing some applescript that triggers a midi event that tells quicktime/itunes to play a .mov file... I have no idea why the ability is not just given to mainstage, but at least there is supposedly a work around...
    I have little experience with mainstage and no experience with applescript...
    What code do I put in the scripter to make a .mov file play a full screen (on second screen) when I press play in Mainstage 3?
    Is that even right?
    system specs-
    OS X 10.8.4
    Mainstage 3.0.1
    Logic Pro X 10.0.3
    (I don't care what player i use but these are the ones I have to work with)
    (preferred) Quicktime Player 10.2
    Itunes 11.0.5
    VLC 2.0.8
    I have messed around with the applescript editor in my utilities, and looked at some in the app store, but none of them have direct answers that I have found by google-fu-ing..
    The only other option would be to manually press play, fullscreen, then switch back to Mainstage 3... I MC and that takes a lot more time/energy/focus than simply pressing the play button in Mainstage 3 (seriously why doesn't it play videos?)...
    A lot of info, requirements, and questions I know, but when the video is not playing I would like to have my desktop showing (I put drink specials, future gigs, advertisments on a picture slideshow as the desktop on the second monitor)
    If all this works it will be epic
    Worst case I'll stick with Logic X
    Please help

    ALOT of us are attempting to do this VERY thing!
    I have searched high and low for information, even attempted using MS current scripts and modifying them.
    I have a sneaky feeling that MS scripts are somehow different than a typical Applescript.
    (changing iTunes to Quicktime)
    If anyone can pipe in here, that HAS actually accomplished this, the cheque is in the mail!!

    how can I find the dns names ?That is OS specific thus you must either use Runtime.exec() or use JNI to get to the names.

  • My file names have disappeared in grid view. Thery have been replaced with a dark bar along the bottom of the previews. If I toggle using the command u it hide the bar but I still can't see the file name. In list view all the file names are OK.

    My file names have disappeared in grid view. Thery have been replaced with a dark bar along the bottom of the previews. If I toggle using the command u it hide the bar but I still can't see the file name. In list view all the file names are OK.

    The dark bar is caused by the option "Show metadata below image".
    Check the settings for the metadata overlays in Grid view (basic and expanded) by clicking the little "badge" icon below the Browser and selecting "Edit". Is the filename still enabled in the list? And in a high enough position to have precedence for other metadata tags, if the space does not suffice to show all selected tags?
