Custom booleans - play, pause, fast forward, etc

I thought this would be an easy one, but my searches haven't yielded any results yet. Does anyone know of a collection of custom Boolean images? I need to implement a playback feature in a program and would like buttons that look like Play, Pause, Stop, Rewind, Fast Forward, etc, such as on a CD player.
Thanks,
Dave

There are 10 kinds of people: those who understand binary, and those who don't.

Under Windows, I would use regular text with some special Fonts. The attached booleans use "Wingdings" and "Wingdings 3" with single characters. (use charmap to pick the right symbol). I would think that virtually all modern windows boxes have these fonts available.

  • IPod on iPhone 3G plays on fast forward?

    The music on my iPohone, fom my iPod, plays on fast forward and jumps forward and sometimes stalls and then plays again.

    I am having the same trouble with my iphone 3G. For no reason, sometimes it simply crashes. I hope they come up with an update to fix this soon.

  • Play/Rewind/Fast Forward keys not working in Quicktime

    How can I assign the F7, F8, and F9 keys (rewind, play, fast forward) to work with Quicktime?  I desperately need to be able to shuffle through footage frame by frame for work, and it just stopped working as I downloaded the OS X Yosemite beta onto my MacBook Air.  Can anyone help?
    Thank you!

    Try using the J, K and L keys. A double tap on J and L increases the speed. Triple tap is even faster.
    Right and left arrow keys can also step through frames. Spacebar start and pauses.

  • Live Pause Fast Forward Buffer-Confused

    Hi,
    What's the forward buffer of live pause? I know there's a 15 min rewind buffer so that if I pause I could rewind a max. of 15 min. from the time I paused but how much can I fast forward? If I start again, how much a radio program is saved (fast forward)? Let's say I pause at 8:00 and then start again at 9:00. I can rewind to hear the radio program from 7:45 to 8:00 and then fastforward 8:00 to 8:15. Is this way live pause works? IS the fast forward buffer the same as the rewind buffer (15 min)? Can someone explain it because I think I don't understand?
    Thanks for any replies.

    Thanks.  So any idea why when i try to use any of the function keys for pause, back or fwd it just ignores me?  I can tell that the box is on the remote light flashes when i press one of the function keys just doesn't take the action.  I have mutliple boxes in my house - do you know if this should this work on all of them or only the main box?  Thanks again.   
    You can only pause and rewind liveTV on the DVR.  You cannot pause and rewind liveTV on the other STBs in your home.
    You can pause and rewind liveTV on a DVR because it is always recording the current channel to its hard drive.  The STBs don't have a hard drive.

  • IPhone / iPad skips, pauses, fast forwards, Siri starts (without prompt)

    Hi -
    I've had an issue with my iPhone when listening to "Music" or "Podcasts" or "Spotify" where my phone will randomly skip, fast forward, stop and start, or even activate siri without my prompting. It only happens with those app that I've noticed so far.
    I had thought this was just a problem with my iPhone but switched to listen to music on my iPad Mini and had the same issue.
    I'm starting to think it's caused by my headphones (Sony over the ear headphones with built in remote/mic) as I have a cheap pair of earbuds where I don't have the same issue. These are not bluetooth - it's wired.
    Do Apple products have compatibility issues with headphones? Has anyone had the same issue?
    It's possible as well it's not being caused by the heaphones, that's just my guess.
    Searched around for similar threads, apologies if re-post.
    Thanks,
    Jordan

    So I actually "fixed" it. The headphones I was using had a built in remote. I switched that wire to a standard one (it came with both) and I no longer have the issue. Seems the Sony remote built into the headphone wire wasn't compatible with the iPhone...

  • ITunes Playing Songs Fast-Forwarded

    I have a new iMac running on Leopard and the most current iTunes 7.7.1. Recently my music has been playing fast which is very unusual. I've already tried rebooting and reinstalling. Any help would be great, thanks!

    iTunes has a habit of doing this when you encode source files with high sample rates (i.e. 48,000 khz) to a standard sample rate of 44,100 kHz.

  • Video playback stuck in fast-forward

    For some odd reason, whenever I go to play back any video I've recorded in OnLocation CS5 it plays in a very strange way. It's fine for the first clip that pops up, but whenever I switch over to Source or to another clip, then everything goes south (when I switch back to the original clip, it starts having these problems too). The audio and video both start skipping constantly, and all the audio is very high pitched and fast, like the room we shot in was filled with helium or something. In other words, the video looks and sounds like it's playing in fast forward for some reason, and I can't get it back down to normal speed. (I'm beginning to think that it's skipping because the video is trying to let the timestamp catch up to where it should be relative to what's playing.) Oh, and here's the best part: the files themselves are fine. When I go into the project folder and view the files directly through a media player, they play normally. So this only happens when I try to look through them in OnLocation. The video was recorded in AVI Type 2, and was recorded direct-to-disk from OnLocation, if that helps. This was my first time using OnLocation, so maybe I did something wrong? Please, I've looked everywhere for a solution. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

    My first guess is that the camera is set to 12bit audio. OnLocation handles that correctly sometimes, but it other times it basically assumes 16bit audio, which produces a Chipmunks effect. To the best of my recollection, however, when the player is in that funky state, only the audio is affected; there's no stutter or fast play of the video. So you may be running into a different problem entirely, but let's start by ruling out the 12bit explanation. To check this, you can either find the setting on the camera or check the metadata in OL--just type "Audio Sample Type" in the Metadata panel's search box.

  • [Solved] Control MPD with Macbook Pro Play/Pause keys

    I have mpd installed and working with ncmpcpp as the client.
    I have a 17" C2D 9600GT Mac book Po.
    I have pommed installed and working.
    I'm using openbox, but I sometimes use awesome when I feel like it.
    I think that's all you really need to know. This is probably really simple, but I'm not sure how to do it.
    I would like the play/pause key to play/pause, skip forward key to skip forward and the skip back to skip back.
    This is a little unrelated, but if any of you have a macbook pro you would know about the alternate to the F3 key. In mac It takes all of your active windows and tiles them across the screen so you can select what window. In awesome, to change the tiling mode you press Command(super)+space. Can I make that alternate F3 key mapped to this?
    Thanks guys.

    Got it all set. Thanks dude. That link helped quite a bit.
    Just in case anyone was wondering, I ended up figuring out what the keys were mapped to and assigned them to control mpc via the rc.xml for openbox.
    So basically, copy and paste this into your rc.xml as long as your keys are mapped to XF86 correctly.
    <keybind key="XF86AudioPrev">
    <action name="Execute">
    <execute>mpc prev</execute>
    </action>
    </keybind>
    <keybind key="XF86AudioPlay">
    <action name="Execute">
    <execute>mpc toggle</execute>
    </action>
    </keybind>
    <keybind key="XF86AudioNext">
    <action name="Execute">
    <execute>mpc next</execute>
    </action>
    </keybind>

  • ITunes starts fast forwarding tracks after 1hours continuous play?

    Hi I have recently updated windows XP on my computer to service pack three. After this update when I am listening to iTunes it suddenly started playing the songs in my library too quickly as if it was stuck on fast forward.
    If you stop itunes playing then press play or select a different track it continues to play too fast. The only way to fix the problem is to close itunes and re-open it.
    I have now found that this problem starts after iTunes has been playing music for just over an hour, so currently I'm having to close and re-open itunes ever hour to keep listening to music.
    Any Idea why this might be happening?
    I'm running XP SP3, 3GB ram, 3GHz processor, 200GB HD no where near full. Its iTunes version 8.2.1.6.
    Thanks
    Liam

    Anyone else have this problem? I have now timed the problem to exactly 1hour 9minutes of continuous play, so if you play for 30 mins, pause for 15 then play iTunes starts fastforwarding 39 minutes later.

  • IPod 5.5G Video, 30GB, No Sound Audio, Play/Pause Won't Shut Down, etc.

    Even though I have marked this topic as a question, it is more of a heads up for those having problems with Sound and Audio on the 5th Gen (Video) iPods.
    I was having audio problems like many others are describing and took it upon myself to look into the cause. I found that there is a problem with a flat ribbon cable that connects to the main board of the iPod. The issue is that there are very thin, gold plated traces of copper on a somewhat thin plastic backing which fits into a ZIF (i.e. Zero-Insertion-Force) connector.
    At issue is the amount of bending of the plastic cable when a clip on this ZIF connector is 'locked'. It seems that on some of these plastic ribbon cables, these small gold plated copper traces will crack and break, causing sound to come only from one channel or the other, or for scratchy sound, and even possible problems with the Hold switch. (I removed my Hold/Headphone Jack cable assembly and confirmed this under a microscope.)
    I don't know if the cracking is immediate upon the connector being locked, or if there is some length of time before cracking will occur. I also cannot say if this is truly a problem with the ZIF connector force, or the copper on the ribbon cable. There are different problems if the copper is too thin or too thick. Other problems can cause the copper to break, have problems adhering to the plastic 'ribbon', etc.
    Since this cable not only includes Left/Right Audio, but the Hold switch, units with this problem may not only have audio problems, but apparently have problem with the Hold switch not functioning properly and issues with Holding down the Play/Pause part of the Click-Wheel to power down an iPod. Another issue appears to be that the 'Clicking' noise of the Click-Wheel either becomes quiet or disappears altogether.
    Ok, here's the question part...
    Apple, do you have any knowledge of this issue? Is it systemic, or just several isolated units? Since the 5.5G is not in production, is it out of the question to hope to get a discounted repair or replacement part? What would your typical response be?
    (Note: I had an AppleCare contract that apparently doesn't run out until October of this year, but because I took it upon myself to open the unit I understand that this is now voided.)
    At this point I am thinking of buying a replacement Hold/Audio ribbon cable to install myself, but am very concerned that the part I purchase may also have these issues.
    Sincerely,
    Nobuo

    After all my worry, concern, and consternation, I took my own advice and went to see the Genius Bar at the local Apple store this afternoon on my way home from work, just to see if they knew about this issue. At least I was expecting they would tell me I was out of luck for opening the iPod, at most I thought they would take it in for service and then let me know they found I had opened it and that I'd have to either pay for service, buy a new one, or that they'd simply be returning it as is. Instead they offered to replace my iPod.
    I don't know if this was because I was starting to make other customers nervous (talking loud is a habit when I get anxious), and they said they don't work in individual parts like the flex ribbon cable which I told them in detail was defective - I even mentioned that I had tried to fix it by applying solder to fill in the breaks in the gold traces. But after 20 minutes of them listening to me and continually offering to exchange the iPod (not one, but two Genius' at the Genius Bar were offering me an exchange) - I gave in.
    I have to say parting with it was a bit of an emotional thing - I still had all my podcasts, songs, photos, etc, on the iPod (I would have wiped it, but I really didn't expect much - I don't know what I was expecting). Maybe I was thinking of all the Smart Playlists I would loose (again), and have to recreate (again), or maybe it wasn't wanting to part with it because I figured it would be my mod-ing unit (I had seen what some did to add 32GB Compact Flash to their iPods and was tempted to do this myself). It was a very lonely 30 min drive back home.
    I am still a bit gob-smacked with a 'New' 5.5Gen Video iPod. Part of me wants to thank Apple, and part of me wants to cry at loosing an old friend. (And I am sure there is a part that is sad that it wasn't me that fixed it.) I was also pretty well put in my place by the Genius when she said not to open the replacement. (If you've ever seen those TV shows where the actor becomes smaller and smaller when being scolded, that was me in the store.)
    The moral of my story is - *do not hesitate to take your product to Apple if you think it needs to be fixed!* It all definitely made me feel like Apple employees really do understand the value of 'Customer Service', even when the customer isn't always right. I hope others will learn from my mistakes.
    Sincerely,
    Nobuo

  • I have downloaded five hours of video of my band playing and have edited it down to two hours but I can't fast forward it or jump to the next song. what do I need to do. Also is there anyway to eq the sound before making a dvd

    I have edited five hours of my band playing and after burning a dvd it won't fast forward or go to the next song. what do I need to do. Also is there a way to add eq to the video before I burn it. (the bass is weak)

    Hi Steve,
    The following suggestions assume you are using iMovie '11 (but are also mostly applicable to iMovie '09 from memory - but not sure about the Equalizer).
    You mentioned in the topic header that you had edited the project down to 2 hours. In iDVD that is the maximum time allowed for a standard single layer DVD, including time taken for the theme and menus. Perhaps things are a bit tight, and you may need to shorten the project by a few minutes before exporting again for iDVD.
    Note that for the Best Performance setting the maximum duration is 1 hour. For 2 hours duration you need to use either High Quality or Professional Quality (the latter takes about twice as long to encode, as it does a 2 pass operation).
    In your iMovie project did you insert chapter markers for the beginning of each song? If so, don't place them within a transition. Also, don't insert a marker at the very beginning of the project - iDVD will do this for you automatically - all you need to do in iDVD is rename it. In case you aren't familiar with the markers, see this picture (just drag the marker onto the clip where you want the chapter to start, then give it a name in the marker box that appears):
    Regarding the Equalizer, in the iMovie project, double-click on the audio track to bring up the Inspector. Select Audio - you will see an Equalizer item. Use the Custom setting, or by clicking on the disclosure triangles (little arrow heads), you can choose from a range of presets. See this picture:
    Hope this helps!

  • Front Row playing shared TV video and using Fast-Forward question

    I'm playing a shared TV video on my Black MacBook from my iTunes running on my PowerMac G5 across my home ethernet 10/100/1000 network. The TV video plays just fine and I can pause it using the Remote just fine. However, according to the documentation for the Remote while using Front Row in this manner, the Remote's Fast-forward is supposed to fast-forward the video if it's pressed and held down. It does not do this! It simply shows the progress bar for the video with played time on left and remaining time on right. I held the button down for at least 30 secs but to no avail. I let up on the button and press and held down for another 30 secs or so but it still would not fast-forward as the documention says it should.
    My MacBook is updated with all the latest Apple software downloads for MacBook.
    Have others experienced this problem, and if so is there a soln to this at this time or does one simply wait for Apple to fix it.
    I will be sending feedback to Apple on this issue.
    Thanks for any insights in advance.

    Update...
    I left Front Row paused on a shared TV Video all night. In morning time screen was black and I could not resume playback.
    I backed out all the way to Desktop and restarted Front Row and selected same shared TV Video - and this time the fast-forward button worked as documented. Go figure this one
    However, when I tried several Shared TV Videos I only got audio in some cases and when I did get a video feed it was not moving yet audio kept rolling along. I had to back off to the Desktop several times and restart Front Row to get things working correctly. If you enecounter this just do what I did here and you'll get things going - just don't give up on it, is my advice. :-))
    This raised another issue - It appears that pause/play Remote button will not work (at least for me) after extended pause time (like for 8 hrs).
    Apple has some fine tuning to do on this Front Row feature - although I will add they've done a pretty darn good job with its initial release IMO.

  • IPod Touch randomly pausing, starting, and fast forwarding?

    I have a 16 GB 2nd gen iPod touch and about 6 months ago I purchased Beats by Dr. Dre for them. They worked perfectly until the headband snapped. I then switched to using the earbuds that came with the iPod. A few days ago I purchased another set of Beats by Dr. Dre. They worked fine while using them the first time, but the second time using them any song I would listen to would randomly pause, start, and fast forward. I switched back to the earbuds that came with thr iPod and the problem didn't occur. I'm not sure what the cause of this is so if anyone could help it'd be much appreciated.

    Hello,
    I am having a similar problem with my 5th generation Nano (5 weeks old). It started about 1 1/2 weeks ago and paused in only 1 song. When I touched the right side of the screen, the song restarted and continued playing. It happened 2 more times on different days and in different songs. Tonight, it paused 7 times during 3 or 4 consecutive songs. I used the same procedure as above to restart each time. Tonite, after a few more songs played without pausing, I backed up to the first song that had paused and let the song sequence replay. No problems this time??? I have not noticed if there is any fast forwarding occurring, but some songs end abruptly before the end (a separate problem). I am thinking that there may be a glitch at a certain spot on the Nano hard drive causing songs to pause. Is that possible? When playing, my Nano sits on a desk top and nothing is touching it. Thanks in advance.
