Can't play multiple movies in one window

I must be doing something wrong. I wanted to watch a series of video clips (all .mov) in quicktime, but not in 10 different windows. Isn't there a way to highlight 10 clips, and then "play all" and have them open up in one window? For some reason, every time I attempt this, I get 10 quicktime players opening up! I'd just like one at a time, and the ability to skip to through the movies like I would do in iTunes with music. I seem to remember doing this before, but now can't remember how. Any ideas?

The steps are correct but you've left out the one that adjusts the 2 through 9 movies position as compared to the others.
The first video would hold a position of 0,0 (upper left). When you add the second video you need to adjust its "offset" to position it next to but not overlapping the first. Since your videos are 100X75 you would set the offset of the second track too 100,0 (100 pixels to the right of the original and 0 pixels different in height). The third would be 200,0 offset.
On the second row your first file would be 0,75 (75 pixels below the upper video). The second file on the second row would be offset 100,75 and the third would be 200,75.
The third row would be 0,150 followed by 100,150 and 200,150.
You could add a slight "border" between each video and give it a color by using the bgcolor="your color" (standard html color codes) and adding that space by adjusting the offset plus your border width in pixels. Hollywood Squares style of video.
http://homepage.mac.com/kkirkster/03war/ one of my older files that uses multiple track video playback of a QuickTime file. The "TV" set is a track and the video that plays "inside" it is another. The still image movies are also separate tracks and QuickTime .mov files can hold up to 99 tracks.

How can I play multiple movies on quicktime like I can on windows medplayer

How can I play multiple movies on quicktime. When i click on open file it will only let me choose one movie to play.For example When ever I used windows media player I could drag my mouse over numerous files and it would play them one after another like in a list format. Can anyone help with this?
Thank you

Hi Brennan,
Only HDMI is going to support audio & video on the single cable. Which MacBook Air do you have? Here's a great article regarding this - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4241. Also keep in mind that only the current generation of MacBook Airs support this. The previous generation, also with MiniDisplay Port would support HDMI but you'd need to run a separate line from the headphone port over AUX for audio.
The first and second generation models, which have micro-DVI, do not support audio. Regarding the RCA cables, Apple offers adapters that allow you to go to VGA and that would probably be your best bet. I do not believe there's a MiniDisplay Port to RCA solution out there, you'd need to do multiple adapters and that's always a questionable performance solution.

Multiple movies in one window

what method do you recomend for playing 10 small movie clips in the same window? quicktime seems to want a player for each file? that would mean my page would be incredibly long with videos that could all play at the same time.... which I dont want. I would like to have a link that says 'link1' and then the movie 1 plays in the wondow... then I would like another link that says 'link2' and then the second movie plays in the SAME window that the first one did.
please help, thank you

I would not recommend multiple players on the same page because of the likelyhood that mutliple players will eventually be running at the same time.... one player not turned off before second one starts, etc.... MUCH CONFUSION!!
Working example of JW Player with XML Playlist:
http://www.nickbeststrongman.com/liberty_11.html
View source :
<div id="liberty_11_replay">
<script type='text/javascript'>
     var so = new SWFObject('video/replay_player.swf','ply','500','710','9','#ffffff');
     so.addParam('allowfullscreen','true');
     so.addParam('allowscriptaccess','always');
     so.addParam('wmode','opaque');
     so.addVariable('playlistsize', '300');
     so.addVariable('playlistfile','video/liberty_11.xml');
     so.addVariable('playlist','bottom');
     so.write('liberty_11_replay');
</script>

</div>
That's ALL... very simple!
options to set display size (in pixels) : '500','710',
option for size of playlist: ('playlistsize', '300');
option for location of playlist...left, right, or bottom: 'playlist','bottom'
this layout uses swfobject 1.5, so in addition to the "replay_player.swf'", you need the swfobject version 1.5 file. All available from the JW Player site.
Best of luck,

Play multiple movies in same window area

Hello,
I'm sure this question has come up before, but couldn't find it.
On my html page I want to have a number of links to my Captivate movies down column on left, and then one movie container on the right, so each time a movie link is clicked, the movie will play within the same container on the right.
I'm using RoboHelp 8 to import and publish my movies. Can import a movie onto my page, but do not see the ability to put a placeholder container on my page so each movie could play within same container.
Thanks!

You're on the right path but a little confused.
You adjust a video track location by using the offset. Default location is 0,0 (upper left corner). You may need your calculator to do the math.
Another concept that escapes new users of QT Pro is negative values. You can use a negative value (say -320, 0) to position a track 320 pixels from the original upper left corner. This will put two 320X240 movies in a side by side 640X240 player window.
Don't forget to adjust the track layers. If they are all going to play at the same time they should all have the same layer number.

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);

I want to play multiple speakers off one Airport. is that possible?

I have an Airport express in my living room, but i want to have wireless music in my kitchen and bedroom. Would i need to buy an amplifier and connect it to the airport or can i play multiple speakers off one Airport OR should i buy multiple Airport's to achieve this?

You can either use multiple AirPorts or use an audio system that pipes music to speakers throughout the house.

Can't play a movie on DVD with QuickTime

I can't play a movie on a DVD with QuickTime. With the player open, when I go to File and then Open, I get the two Video and Audio folders on the DVD itself! The Apple Quicktime guide says of how to play video:
"To open a movie on your hard disk, a CD, or a DVD, do one of the following:
1) In the Finder (or Windows Explorer), double-click the file or drag it to the QuickTime Player application icon.
2)Choose File > Open and select the file."
Firstly, if I double click on the DVD drive in Windows Explorer, it'll open the DVD with my default player (not Quicktime). Secondly what is the 'QuickTime Player application icon?
Thanks, Trickyf

Thanks QuickTimeKirk. I didn't know that about QuickTime not being able to play DVD movies. However am still interesed re the icon. Where is the icon supposed to be which I drag files to? On the desktop? There isn't an icon in the player.
Thanks

Ability to view multiple files in ONE window

I can see here that this is not a new topic really but the thing with Acrobat 9 is so frustrating that it is just unbelievable.
This is another pearl:
Acrobat 9 "lost" its predecessors ability to view multiple files in ONE window. After opening four only documents I cannot see anything on the screen because the toolbars on each individual window cover all necessary view and nothing is left for the actual document. And sometimes I need to open 20 documents!
This is ABSOLUTE DISASTER!!!
I found some explanations from Adobe on the Web that are more than a year old.
I was sure that by now this unfortunate mishandling of that feature (apparently it was dropped out from A9 deliberately - WHO'S IDEA WAS THAT?) would be somehow restorable.
Would anyone happen to know if this feature can get restored to how it was working in A7 or 8 (without the need to uninstall A9 and install A8)?

No, it can't be restored, unless Adobe decides to change the way Acrobat works (which is possible, but not likely).
By the way, it was Microsoft's idea... Adobe were just following their example on this.

How can I scan multiple pages to one file with MG 7120

My printer does not have ADF. How can I scan multiple pages to one file on my MG 7120?

Hi albabynyr,
There is a program that comes with the printer called the IJ Scan Utility that can assist you with scanning multiple pages into a single file. To scan using the IJ Scan Utility, please follow these steps:
1. Start IJ Scan Utility by going to your Start menu, then selecting All Programs, then Canon Utilities, then IJ Scan Utility (folder), then IJ Scan Utility (program).
2. In the Canon IJ Scan Utility window that opens, click SETTINGS.... in the bottom right of the window. The Settings dialog box appears.
3. Click the DOCUMENT SCAN option on the left pane of the window.
4. In the right pane of the window, locate the SELECT SOURCE field and select the DOCUMENT option.
5. Set the color mode, document size, and scanning resolution as required in the rest of the fields shown in the window. Click DOCUMENT SCAN ORIENTATION SETTINGS... to specify the orientation of the documents to be scanned.
6. In the SAVE SETTINGS section of the window, you will select the save format and location of the document you are about to scan.
a.) In the FILE NAME field, specify the name you would like to give the file. By default the filename will begin with IMG; you can remove IMG and change it to whatever you would like to name the file.
b.) In the DATA FORMAT field, use the drop-down arrow to select the PDF (Multiple Pages) option.
c.) In the SAVE IN field, please navigate to the area where you would like the file to be saved once it is scanned in. By default, the file will be saved in the DOCUMENTS folder.
7. Once all settings have been selected, click the OK button at the bottom of the SETTINGS (DOCUMENT SCAN) window. The IJ Scan Utility main screen appears.
8. Click the DOCUMENT button. Scanning starts. After a page has scanned, the screen to continue or end scanning appears. If you have more pages to scan, place the next page on the platen and click Scan. Do this each time a page has completed scanning. After the last page has been scanned, click Exit. Scanned images are saved in previously selected folder location specified in the SETTINGS... window. Click the CANCEL button to cancel scanning if needed during scanning.
Hope this helps!

I just bought an HD movie on iTunes. Yesterday, I watched all but twenty minutes of it on my Dell laptop. Today, I tried to open it on the same laptop, and it told me my computer can't play HD movies, that I have to view it in SD. What is happening?

I just bought an HD movie on iTunes. Yesterday, I watched all but twenty minutes of it on my Dell laptop. Today, I tried to open it on the same laptop, and it told me my computer can't play HD movies, that I have to view it in SD. The error message said that my computer didn't have the capabilities, but I have several other HD movies that I have always and can still watch without issue. Just this one doesn't work. Why, and do you know how to fix this?

Apparently the display is required to be HDCP compatible to view HD movies in iTunes. My display isn't so this is my problem. I contacted Apple support and they have agreed to credit me for the HD movie and I have now downloaded the SD version.

Can there by multiple accounts under one id? I just loaded a $25 gift card and it showed up in my balance. My daughter, under the same id had $12.0 left from a previous gift card. Now only the $12.01 shows up and the $25 is nowhere to be found?

Can there be multiple accounts under one apple id? My daughter and wife apparently share an id between my daughter's ipod and my wife's ipad. My daughter has what she believes is her $12.01 left from a gift card. My wife loaded a $25 gift card recently (I saw the $25 balance in her account when she was done) and after a password change, now all that shows up is the $12.01?

Greetings,
I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
Good Luck - Cheers,
M.

What to do?? - I just updated my iTunes to ver 11.2.1 because of the annoying messages they keep sending out.
Now I can't play the movies and TV series I've purchased and were watchable before.
Comes up with "This movie can be played only on displays that support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection)."
The cheek of the matter is everytime I tried to get Apple support it comes up with a request for me to pay $54 for their support package, to fix a problem I didn't have until I complied to one of their update requests.
End of Rant!!! - Anyone know how to fix please?

Well, I wonder about all the responses...:)
Anyhow, I wound up "fixing" the problem by using the System Restore disks for the Mini. It's now running Tiger 10.4.11 (with all updates) and I copied my iTunes library over. It all works now. <shrug> I have no idea what the problem was, and I'm a bit leery of upgrading it to Leopard, so I think I'll just leave well enough alone.

Open multiple websites in one window

I would like to open multiple websites in one window with multiple tabs using VBA in Excel. My present code opens each website in a separate window.
Sub Weather()
' Look at weather websites
    Dim URL As String
    Dim ie As Object
    URL = "http://cleardarksky.com/c/AnaheimCAkey.html?1"
    Set ie = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
    ie.Visible = True
    ie.navigate URL
    Set ie = Nothing
    URL = "http://www.goes.noaa.gov/GSSLOOPS/wcir.html"
    Set ie = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
    ie.Visible = True
    ie.navigate URL
    Set ie = Nothing
    URL = "http://www.weather.com/weather/hourbyhour/l/92886:4:US"
    Set ie = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
    ie.Visible = True
    ie.navigate URL
    Set ie = Nothing
    URL = "http://www.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?query=92886"
    Set ie = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
    ie.Visible = True
    ie.navigate URL
    Set ie = Nothing
End Sub

Hi,
It depends on your popup blocker (built-in or Addon toolbar), tabbed browser settings and IE security settings.
See general tab of Internet Options, Tabs button.
you can specify a target parameter in the navigate method to reuse the one IE window and open each site in a new tab (depending on your settings above).
window.navigate method
Regards.
