Embedded QuickTime - Embed Tag Attributes

Is there an embed tag attribute that controls playback speed? I run a website that streams MIDI and users have a need to speed up or slow down the playback speed.

Not part of the embed tag attributes but you can launch the MIDI files via the QuickTime Player app (target="quicktimeplayer") and then the visitor can use the built in A/V Controls window to adjust playback speed and pitch.

  • Quicktime Embed Tags

    Quicktime embed tags, found at:

    Webpage in question:
    http://taras.shacknet.nu/~public1/plpp/vintro.html
    So I'm trying to put an MP4 video on this web page. I set the AUTOPLAY tag to TRUE. According to Apple's site, the movie will start playing as soon as Quicktime has determined that enough of it has downloaded to allow for uninterupted play. Well, it seems that the movie doesn't start playing until the entire movie is downloaded. I'm completely out of ideas on how to remedy this situation. Additionally, it seems that your browser will just freeze until the whole movie is downloaded. This seems to happen in all browsers on Mac and PC. How do I fix this?
    Also, on a related topic, does anybody know how I can redirect to another web page automatically once the movie is finished? Thanks.

    So, one bit of confusion. You said that as it is right now my sight can't be viewed with Windows using IE, but I have tested it using Windows IE and I can view in in there just fine (and of course, quicktime is installed). Also, as far as the codecs, I used MP4 Video and AAC Audio, which I thought was standard.
    I did "save as" to the movie in Quicktime Pro, and that put it inside a .mov container. I swithced out the video files. It still seems that the video does not start playing automatically, but waits until the whole thing has downloaded. Am I clear to understand that the problem then is with the <embed> tags that I'm using instead of using javascript? I am a relatively new web developer, and I'm using Dreamweaver CS 3. I could figure out the javascript if I have to, but I want to keep things as simple as possible. Is switching to Javascript the only way to make the movie start automatically? Any way to do it with the <embed> tags that dreamweaver uses? Alternatively, would it be easier just to convert this whole thing to flash video and use that?
    Also, my second question still stands: How do I automatically redirect the page to a different URL once the movie is done playing? Thank you very much for the help!

  • (Quicktime) Embed Tags and upcoming ActiveX changes

    I apologize if this is not the correct forum for such a question, but the "Developer" section didn't seem quite appropriate and Apache can be considered a UNIX technology so here goes . . .
    I am updating my web pages to prepare for changes in future versions of IE, as detailed in "Apple's Preparing Websites with Active Content for Upcoming Changes to Internet Explorer for Windows". My question is using these changes, how might I present users with a "Click to Play" image that updates the web page with the appropriate code without loading a new page.
    To clarify, once a user goes to any web page, that user should be able to click an image that would load the Apple-recommended Javascript function QTWriteOBJECTXHTML in its place. I'm guessing I want a Javascript function to replace itself with another Javascript function.
    Does anyone know how to do this?
    If I find a way to do this in before I get a definitive answer, I'll post what I find.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi mistersquid,
       This is about as far from the correct forum as you can get. This has nothing to do with Apache per se. It is purely a question about HTML and JavaScript. However, there are some folks here that do some web development so you'll probably get an answer. In fact, I'm going to take a shot at it myself if I can figure out what you want.
       I don't understand the part about the image or the purpose of the corresponding link. Why do you want the execution of the recommended JavaScript to depend on a user click?
       If I understand their recommendations correctly, the QTWriteOBJECTXHTML function is invoked as the page loads. It sounds like the change that Micro$oft makes is triggered when an <Object> tag (or similar tag) is encountered while the document is being downloaded. The trick appears to involve adding the <Object> tags as the document is being loaded. By the time the document is rendered, the <Object> tags should be in it and the document should look just like it did before the fix. Thus, I don't see any point in changing the user experience.
       If you do have some compelling reason for changing the user experience, all you have to do is to code the page for that using <Object> or <Embed> tags. Then after you have what you want, do exactly what Apple recommends and simply replace <Object> tags like before. I don't believe that <Object> tags can be containers, can they? If not, it shouldn't be possible to create a page for which their recommendations fail to work in the fashion they describe.

  • QuickTime Embed Scale Attribute doesn't seem to work with Windows IE

    I've got an application where I vary the size of the video, sometimes larger than its native size. It works as I expected with FF and Chrome but not IE. I've stripped everything out but the bare minimum to show this behavior. Here it is: http://wakewatcher.redirect.hm/playpen/Size_test.html
    Thanks.

    Figure it out. Needed to add "scale" attribute to the object parameter list as well as the embed parameters. FF and Chrome let it go without it.

  • How to set src attribute of embed tag to a swf in resource ?

    Hi all,
    I'm working on a C++ project that uses Internet Explorer engine (through Microsoft Web Browser component) to render HTML pages.
    All HTML and images files are in the project resource, and the final artifact is a standalone*.exe.
    I have an embed tag like this to add the *.swf
    <object classid='clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000' width="314" height="64" id='player1' name='player1'>
       <param name='movie' value="res://appName.exe\res\torreVermelha.swf">
       <param name='allowfullscreen' value='true'>
       <param name='allowscriptaccess' value='always'>  
       <embed id='player1'
              name='player1'
              src='res://appName.exe\res\torreVermelha.swf'
              width="314" height="64"
              allowscriptaccess='always'
              allowfullscreen='false'/>
    </object>
    The file torreVermelha.swf is also inside the resource, but I can't access it from HTML.
    So, how can I embed a *.swf from resource?

    Obviously because I've misplaced it.
    My bad.

  • Quicktime embed not showing controls

    I have several embedded quicktime movies on my website, for some reason they do not show the controls even though the embed and object tags specifically say to controller=true.
    Is this a factor of the file itself, what is the fix?

    Adding a controller requires you add 16 pixels to the actually file height.
    e.g. a 320X240 QuickTime file would use 320X256 in the html page code.

  • Problem embedding quicktime files

    Hi,
    I run a website with embedded quicktime files at www.tubespot.com. I have a problem viewing the quicktime files using Safari. The page seems to work fine on any other web browser.
    I copied the code for the <object> tag and the <embed> tag straight from trailers.apple.com. And in Safari, if I refresh several times, eventually it will show the video. This is true on any of several macs running Panther and Tiger.
    Also, when I put forth just the <object> tag it works every time. But in the context of my site, it often doesn't show up. I've tried playing with the tag specs to make sure there's way more than enough room, etc., but I cannot seem to make it consistently show up.
    Can anyone look at the code and offer any insight to the problem? Is anyone able to reliably see the videos using Safari?
    Thanks,
    Chris

  • Safari 5.1 won't play .mov files using the embed tag

    Since upgrading to Lion (and Safari 5.1), any page that loads a .mov file using the <object><embed> tags gives me a "Plug-in Failure" error. If I take the HTML and load the same file using the <video> tag it works fine.
    Did Apple drop support for the embed tag? Is there something going on with my Quicktime plugin?
    Here is an example of a page with an embedded .mov:
    http://www.mediacollege.com/video/format/mpeg4/streaming/example.html
    Does this work for anyone running Safari 5.1 in Lion?

    please check to verify if you have the remains of plug-in attched to DivX and make sure you have installed quicktime plug-in by going to Safari -- Help -- Installed Plug-ins. If you ever uninstalled Divx without using Divxuninstaller, you'll meet this problem.
    Now download Divxinstaller.dmg and run it. Then you'll see the uninstaller in the corresponding application folder.
    Click uninstaller to fully uninstall Divx. Relaunch safari and enjoy!

  • How do I get an embedded quicktime file to appear "activated" w/playback & volume upon opening PDF?

    I am new to adobe acrobat, and I'm using version 8.  I am trying to insert quicktime videos in a PDF File.  I have figured out how to insert the video files and embed them in the PDF.
    However, when I save the PDF, close it, and then re-open the it, the quicktime file does not appear.  If I don't use a poster image, then it is just blank where the file is, but the file is there, and when I click on the empty space where I know that it has been embedded a dialog box opens about playing it just this once, or making it a trusted file, etc.  Then it plays, and the volume and playblack controls, along with the background, are visible. (it is actually just an audio track in a quicktime file, so nothing is playing but the audio, and the background is solid black.  I have set it up so that it stays there once activated.
    What I want is for the volume and playblack controls and the black background to appear as soon as you open the PDF file, without having to click in the blank area where the file has been inserted.  This is going to be part of a portfolio that I am submitting for a school program, so I need the person that is opening it to be able to clearly see where the file is, and see the playblack and volume controls so that he can playback the file.
    So how do i get the embedded quicktime file to automatically show up in "activated" mode, with the playback and volume controls visible and ready to be used?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks...

    If the video is only linked it would reduce the file size of the pdf and it would make it accessible for people opening on a device (like iPad) which does not allow flash which must be installed with Acrobat to view embedded media.
    But I would recommend to send the people only a link to the PDF. I hate it, when my iPhone filled with useless stuff, if I would like to see it I could donwload, but as attachment make my space overfilled.

  • How can you get an Embedded Quicktime to rewind?

    Hi there,
    I have been using the QTPro feature of 'Export to desktop' to create a quicktime for my web site. It works well but I was just wondering if there is a way to get the quicktime to rewind to the start after it has finished the movie and revert to the poster frame (with the quicktime button that says click to play).
    ThankS
    Pete!

    The Click to Play part of the file is just a poster (JPEG format) movie used by the Web page code to load your actual file. You can't get back to it via QuickTime browser plug-in unless you refresh the page.
    You could add page code (loop="true") that would play your file over and over until the visitor leaves your page.
    Take a look inside the folder created by the export to view the different files. In the html file you'll see the page code (Use this code in the <body> of your web page:).
    Edit the param tag code and add <param name="loop" value="true" />
    Edit the embed tag code and add loop="true"
    Your QuickTime file will now loop when viewed in a browser.

  • Embedded QuickTime files not playing sound

    Is this a Yosemite issue? Not being able to play older QuickTime 7 files properly? I'm not sure what else the issue could be since everything seems to work fine in 10.7, 10.8, and 10.9 (unfortunately, I have been unable to test this in 10.10 or 10.10.1). Maybe I'm overcomplicating a simple issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Some very interesting observations which peaked my own curiosity due to on-again, off-again nature of the playback. I suspect this is either a "bug" or represents content handling changes that are currently in the process of  "evolving." Not a web site programmer so I used iWeb to run some contrast-comparison tests on how audio was handled by the plug-in software when directly accessing the content by its URL and via the page embed strategies. My results mirrored yours in that:
    1) All legacy codecs tested (A-Law, IMA, QDM2, QPV, and u-Law) in an MOV file container played correctly in the QT 7 player.
    2) The same files all played correctly when content was accessed by the plug-in software directly using the URL reference.
    3) None of the files containing legacy audio compression formats would play audio using the plug-in software using a web page embedding strategy.
    4) An MP4 (H.264/AAC) version of you original clip played correctly in all instances.
    5) Replacing your QDM2 audio track with an AAC audio track in the original MOV file allowed the file to play correctly in all instances.
    Based on these observations, I suspect the problem is in the way the software is currently programmed to handle (or rather ignore) the embedded strategy content. However, as you indicated, it is probably time to update your files. Not only did the H.264/AAC version of your original file play in all instances, but it used less than 45% of the file space/bandwidth for the settings I employed as compared to your original "0706_split_brain_red.mov" original file.

  • Embed tag always caling QT

    Hello
    I placed a simple embed tag in a page and it always calls for
    the Apple QuickTime player for what is only an mp3 file. I have
    (Windoze) configured to use the Windows Media Player for any mp3,
    but it still uses the QT. This is totally outside of the expected.
    How do I make sure it used the installed player for that file type.

  • Deprecated embed tag issues

    I have been using the embed tag to play media like:
    embed src="audio/song1.mp3" width="200" height="18"     ......  /embed
    It seems that it has become deprecated in some uses
    I'm looking for some kind of universal tag to play mp3's or .mov files
    Any idea what replaces it for basic use?

    so what's the best bet overall for maximum compatibility ?
    Use both <object> and <embed> tags.  Embed tag was never valid W3C code.  Nevertheless, some browsers require it.

  • Embed tag for Fonts in AS3 "exception during transcoding"

    Hi,
    I have the following problem, I am embeding a font in a project with the embed tag and I get the following error "exception during transcoding".
    [Embed(source="D:/repo/docs/fonts/FreeSans.ttf", fontFamily="Free Sans", fontWeight = 'regular', mimeType = 'application/x-font')] public var auxFont:String;
    I had this same error in Flex but I found that adding "-managers flash.fonts.AFEFontManager" in the properties of the project, ActionScript compiler, Additional compiler arguments took care of it.
    I need to compile this project with the Flash compiler and not Flex is there any place in Flash that I can add that argument?
    Thanks,
    Ana

    Try this:
              [Embed(source="D:/repo/docs/fonts/FreeSans.ttf",  fontFamily="FreeSans")]
              private var freeSans:Class;
    Than, you can use the embedded font via font property of TextFormat class:     myTextFormat.font = "FreeSans";
