Embed an video into an image

Let start with the simple stuff.
Operating system is Windows XP
Photoshop version is CS4 V11
I have been racking my brains trying to figure out how to embed a video file into an image in Photoshop.
GOAL: i have a Jpeg of a TV screen frame. I want to take a YouTube video that i downloaded and place it into this TV screen frame.
After this i want to be able to save it in some way (i suppose save for web devices as a GIF) and then place that picture of a TV screen with a running video into a banner i am creating (like a website signature banner with a running video on the side of it).
All the tutorial videos i have found are from older versions of PS where bridge and ImageReady were all a part of the main program. CS4 is not like that so i cannot figure out how to even get the movies from bridge, or into Photoshop at all since they are two separate programs and i have not found a way to either open it with PS or move it to PS from Bridge.
I have it currently saved in both .mov and .avi file formats as i was not sure which would work (but the tutorial used .mov)
any help would be greatly appreciated.

It was simply an example.
1. I can capture the video myself with a capture card of me playing the game if that makes you feel better about it.
2. And when i said GIF i was refering to an animated GIF.
3. It is my website so i am pretty sure no one will mind if the file is larger than a normal website signature. We have plenty of bandwidth.

What's the easiest way to embed a video into a specific part of an image map?

What's the easiest way to embed a video into a specific part of an image map?
Anybody help? Is there a way to do this in Dreamweaver?

One way would be to create your image map first. Then, use the CSS property position to position the div containing the video player relative to the image map or absolute to the page (depending on how your website layout is).
Then, use an event listener (javascript) to enable the div holding the video player to show only when the specific area on the image map is clicked.

Why can I not embed html video into a Muse slideshow widget?

I have an existing slideshow widget in place and when I upload html video (click on image in slideshow, object, insert html) it puts the video in a seperate box un-linked to the slideshow. I can get the video in with a composition widget, but I need to use a slideshow widget. Site is here:Main_Mltipages and the video needs to be added to the main slideshow.

Hello,
You can not insert Embedded codes in Slideshow widgets.
If you want to replace images with embedded HTML video , please use Presentation Composition and place them in Target.
You can find it from Object > Insert Widget > Composition > Presentation

Fit video into an image in iMovie

Hi,
I have a recorded video of an iOS app that I would like to insert into a static image representing the iPhone border. How can I do this in iMovie? I've added the video to a project, then added the photo as an overlay but the video is bigger that the frame where I want the video to be displayed.
On this screenshot, I want the video to me resized to fit into the pink rectangle
cheers,
Tex

You can do a close up with the crop tool. You can adjust the color on entire frames, but you cannot adjust the color on just the eyes.

Trying to Embed a video into a program

I have made a gag game in visual basic, that involves a couple of video clips, I used the "Windows Media Player" thing to embed the clips, and I tested it multiple times, and its ready to be distributed, so I gave a "pre-release" copy
of the game to my friend for him to install, and the videos did not show up, I figured out that the video clips, no matter what I do wont be installed with the program, and have a quick path within the program folder... So my question is is that if there is
anyway to fix that, that would be great... Maybe make the Program portable and... ugh I dunno please do help me...

What do you mean by embed the clips?
Do you mean added the clips as resources in your applications properties so they are embedded in the compiled .exe for your application? If so they will have to be written to files from resources for Windows Media Player to play them as it can not play files
directly from resources.
You could provide the video clips (I suppose you mean video files) with your application as files in an appropriate folder to place them in when you install your program on another PC. Recommended folder locations can be found in the link below. It advises
what folders on a system should be used by your application. I use an installer to install my applications on 64 bit Windows in the "Program Files (x86)" folder in a sub folder of course. As the installer (Install Shield Limited Edition - Free version
from internet) is set up for that for my system. XP or 32 bit OS may be different. But other files for my application (not .Dll's associated to my application) would go in other, appropriate, folders.

Can you embed icloud videos into a blog?

I want to upload video to share via a blog. I know it can be done with youtube, but does anyone know if videos on i-cloud can be embedded in a similar way (e.g. with a URL?)

Considering iCloud is password protected, probably not. I'd stick with youtube or vimeo or some other sort of sharing program. If for no other reason than to protect your iCloud from unintended access.

Embed YouTube video into SCORM (HTML5) using Captivate 7?

Hi there,
I am using Captivate 7 to produce a SCORM compliant HTML5 course - this course includes a video, however when I have tried to upload the video directly, it pauses/doesn't play well in our LMS. As such I wanted to try embedding/streaming the video from Youtube instead. The video is unlisted (as it is an internal course). I've had a hunt of the forums but can't seem to work out how to do this?
Note: When I try going to Video > Insert Video, then Event Video > Already Deployed... entering the Youtube url - It doesn't work and I receive the following message: "Failed to load the video file. The file parth or the URL may be invalid. Do you want to change the file part or the URL". I am using Adobe Captivate 7 version 7.0.1.237 (in case it helps).
Any and all help appreciated.
Nicole

Thanks for the quick response!
Re: Widget - does it work with HTML5? I found a couple forums that seemed to suggest it doesn't...
Also, when you say the full YouTube URL - where do I get this from? I (embarrassingly) didn't realise there were two different ones.
Thanks again,
Nicole

Embed a video into InDesign CS 5

I give up. I viewed the Lynda lessons ("that's all you have to do!"), and can't get my video to place without errors in my document. I tried placing it in mpg, mpg2, avi, and flv format. I have the design premium package, but don't know how to use flash. Can someone speak really slowly to me on my level and tell me the steps to place the video? If these formats are not compatible, can someone tell me how to get it correct using the Adobe software.
What I want to do is have the movie play for someone else reading my newsletter with Adobe Reader. Thanks!
Lou

Peter! Thanks so much for responding to my plight.
What's your OS (probably not a factor, but might be), and are you patched
to 7.0.4?
I am using Windows 7 in 64 bit mode. What is 7.0.4?
>How are you making the PDF?
I select export then save as Adobe pdf (Interactive)
>What settings are you using,
I didn't change any settings. Am I supposed to? I am using place... from
the file menu then selecting my video. I might get "import failed" (in the
flv format) or "media files not supported by flash". Why do I need support
from Flash since I am using Adobe Reader and InDesign?
When I press continue, it places a cross hatched box with a film strip
icon in it. I tried to run it in the Preview panel, but nothing shows there. I
exported it anyway and the pdf file comes up in adobe reader with a
filmstrip icon again.
>and what happens when you try to play the video?
I get a yellow band across the top of the screen that says, "some features
have been disabled to avoid potential security risks." No matter how many
times, I select "trust this document always", it keeps coming up. When I
click on the movie icon, with one format I get just the sound. In another, I
get "Acrobat has encountered an error while playing this media clip."

Embedding video into a slideshow

I read how you can embed a video into a Composition widget, but can you embed it into a Slideshow widget? I have still images and want to incorporate a video as part of the Slideshow and I want to utilize the features of the counter in the Slideshow.
Thanks!

You can only add images to a Slideshow widget and Composition widgets do not have the Counter option at this time. Not sure if this would be helpful but take a look a the following post for embedding a full-screen background video using outside plugins in Muse - http://forums.adobe.com/message/5410521#5410521.

Help a newbie embed a video

Hey I'm doing a college project and we've not been taught all that much about using Flash yet and I won't be in college for another week. I want to embed some videos into a project I'm making using Flash 8 but it needs the videos hosted on a web server? I don't have access to that easily so I was trying to figure out a way to get around it, I tried to embed the video into the timeline and all it came back with was a black screen. Is there a way to have videos embedded without them hosted on a web server? Anything will do as long as the videos are there. Thanks.

Okay tried that and still didn't work. I had the option to embed it into the timeline checked, as well as 'Place instance on stage' 'Embed the entire video' and 'Expand timeline if needed' and it said at the bottom "The codec in the file you are importing does not support editing" Tried it and tested and it's a black screen I try to play, skip forward a frame and nothing happens at all.

Code to embed my video in other sites?

Hello folks!
I will be putting video on my website using iWeb. Simple enough (I hope!)
However, I need to be able to provide code to my customers so that they can embed the video into their own website... the same way that YouTube allows you to do that. Is it possible to do that kind of thing with iWeb?
Thanks!
Vixter

I've asked this question previously, and got no responses. I'll ask it again, though my choice of software has changed. I'll be putting video online (this time using Flash video and Dreamweaver). I've seen on YouTube that it's possible to provide someone with a piece of code that allows them to put a video on their site without chewing up their own bandwith. Somehow, it runs directly from YouTube's site, but appears to be on that person's site (for example, it might appear to be sitting on a person's blog, but behind the scenes it's actually running off of YouTube's site). I don't understand the mechanics of this, but am wondering if this can be done by anyone (i.e. me!), or does it require considerable resources.
For example, if I have a site with Flash video on it, can I give someone a piece of code that will enable them to run the video directly from my site (though, it will look like it's actually on their site)? Or, am I only able to provide them with a link to my site (in which case, visitors to their site must leave and come to my site to see the video)? Clear as mud?
Sorry about the long-winded question. Thanks for any advice you can offer! It's very much appreciated.

How To Embed YouTube Videos in InDesign

First time poster, be gentle!
Anyways, I'm designing an internal newsletter for my company, and one of the feature stores includes talks about one of our clients' videos on YouTube, and I would like to embed that video into my InDesign file.
I followed the instructions at http://help.adobe.com/en_US/InDesign/6.0/WSC117AD88-69F6-4658-A1F1-12012B15B9D7.htm, and everything seems to be OK until I click the "Verify URL and Movie Size" button. It gives me the error "URL does not refernce a movie type." I am assuming this is because it's a YouTube video and there are problems reading it, but is there any way around this?
Thanks for your help!

Just wondering if anyone has found a way to embed streaming media content such as youtube, vimeo, or other video provider movies into Indesign? I also need to be able to place streaming audio from an http source.
I want to export my indesign files to flash to create interactivity but really have no idea how to use Flash.
I am not even sure Flash can embed streaming media content from you Youtube or streaming audio content.
I looked into using PDF (via the Youtubewidget and it works great) but the issue I have there is that it's page transitions are very weak visually compared to that of Flash's page turn effect. I found a source for some code which looks Ok but does not compare to Flash. Here is the site link. http://www.coastworx.com/bookflip.php
Is there a way to export from a PDF to Flash and have all the media & links stay intact?
On another note, I did some testing in Indesign CS5. If you try and place a video from a URL it will require that the video start with HTTP or RTMP (for flash media server). I tried using the standard object embed codes from Youtube but it informs you that it is not properly formatted. I even tried to truncate it to start with the HTTP section of the code but it provided me with an error, stating it must start with HTTP or RTMP.
Does anyone know how to accomplish what I am looking to do?
Thanks in advance...

Embed Google Video

I have a user that wants to embed google video into their
page updated by Contribute. All I have been able to find is that
Contribute can only embed video that is housed on their website. Is
there a work around for this? Here is the code google provides:

basics of youtube and google video is they have a flv video
and a swf player.
2 ways of loading them:
one, load a HTML box inside your flash, then load the
youtube/google video content use the embed method
two, find the FLV link, make a player yourself... or find one
online.

How do I embed a small video into a larger video screen?

Adobe Premier Elements 10 for a MacBook Pro Mountain Lion OS 10.8.5
For my ski club, I'm making a short single 3 min video with footage from 3 different camera's. The video frames from one camera are 320 px by 280 px and the frames from the other two cameras are 640 px by 480 px and when shown full screen on a monitor, the footage from the two 640 px by 480 px cameras look OK (if not great) but the footage from the 320 px by 280 px is obviously grainy. I would like to embed the smaller into the larger at 50% so that the picture will be sharper, even though just filling up half the screen. Help please. This is for the upcoming ski show and I need it by Sunday, Oct 20. Thanks. DRThiess

DRthiess
With your Premiere Elements 10 Mac,
a. have you set your project preset for NTSC DV Standard
b. have you imported your 640 x 480 video into this NTSC DV Standard project via Get Media/Files and Folders and now have it on Video track 1.
c. have you then imported your 320 x 280 into this same project and placed it on Video track 2 above the Video track 1 content
d. have you then scaled the selected 320 x 280 on Video Track 2 using either
....Properties Palette/Motion Panel expanded and its Scale slider (check mark next to Constrain Proportions)
or
....Click on Monitor to bring up the bound box of the image and then clicking and dragging on one of the handles of the bounding box to scale the image
There are also some PiPs (Picture in Picture Effects) under Edit Header/Presets that you might want to explore. They are for 25% and 40%, but are adjustable.
Please let us know if any of the above worked for you or if you need supplemental information.
Thank you.
