Embedding video in Muse slideshow

Hello all, I am in desperate need of help here.
I am trying to recreate a slideshow as seen at www.montereybayaquarium.org, where the first "slide" is actually a short video. For the life of me I can't figure out how to do that in Muse or even if it's possible or not?
I have the video as an MP4 player and also as a youtube link to embed:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mktgv0zWG0M&feature=youtu.be
Any and all help is very very much appreciated.
thank you in advance!

Hi Vinayak,
I tried embedding the youtube per your instructions and a tutorial, and I get this:
Is there a specific form in the Compositions I should be using?

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.

Can I embed a quicktime.mov which will auto play and loop on a webpage in Muse? Its a 30 sec video clip of a brick oven stove my clients want on a page for his new restaurant? Any help would be much appreciated Thank you...

Hello,
You may want to upload it to a video hosting platform like youtube, vimeo etc.and put their embed code in Muse using the "Object -> Insert HTML" option in Muse.

Problem embedding video in Muse

After pasting embed code from You Tube in a Muse page, the video will play in Preview, but not when the site is exported to HTML. The page is blank. I also enabled "privacy enhanced mode" as suggested by Adobe. Any suggestions?

If you export your site and just open the HTML files in your browser, you'll be viewing the site over the 'file' protocol. Youtube embed code only works over the 'http' or 'https' protocol.
If you've uploaded/published your site and you're still having this problem over http, share the URL so we can check it out.

Any progress in ebedding video in Muse?

I am embedding video in Muse but wondering if there have been any recent improvements in the ability of Muse to handle video content. Last info on the forum was mid August 2012 that I am aware of.

Feel free to participate in Muse 7 beta program to gather an idea about upcoming features (refer to the announcement section on the forums home page).

Embedded video in the way of slideshow

Hi!
I've got three slideshows underneath eachother and underneath those three an embedded Youtube vide
When the slideshows oen up in their little window the embedded video is shown above the slideshow itself, obscuring the view.
I've tried moving the video to the back and the slideshow to the front but the problem is still there. The rest of the page fades when the slideshow starts, except for the video.
What can I do to make the video fade behind the slideshow as well, or at least get the slideshow to lay on top of the video, faded or not.
Alternatively, how can I make the slidehsow open up on the top of the page instead of in the middle of the screen depending on ow far I've scrolled down?
Thanks,
Max

Lightbox with any other content should work as expected where slideshow will bring the fade effect for all other contents on page.
Please provide the page link where you see this behavior.
Thanks,
Sanjit

How do I make a thumbnail that has a gallery inside? And how can I make this gallery have embeded videos from vimeo + Images?

Hello,
I'm pretty new to Muse so I don't know a lot about it, but I researched a lot and didn't find an answer to this question.
I'm trying to make a portfolio website. The website will be a 12 thumbnails. But each thumbnail is one project, not an image.
When you click one of the thumbnails, I want it to be a lightbox that will show embeded videos from vimeo mixed with images.
Ex: A coca-cola projet.
Main page has a thumbnail of a coca cola image. When you click on it, it opens a lightbox with a coca-cola film, when i click to the right arrow, it shows a cocacola poster, then another poster, then another video. (but they are all part of this gallery, that is inside the thumbnail.
Can you guys help me?
Thanks!!!

I don't understand why my thumbnails don't work.
I dragged a composition lightbox inside another one. But I still have the first lightbox there and can't delete.
When I try my wabsite i see this:
But then I click the thumbnail and I see this:
And when I click one of those 3 I see this:
Like it is making a double lightbox.
but it doesn't show the images, it's like the first lightbox is on top of the second one.
How I deal with this? =/

How do I set the default Hero image in a Muse slideshow widget when using Free Form Thumbnails?

Hello,
I am trying to find out how to set the default Hero image when using a Muse slideshow widget and in the Layout section I have the "Free Form Thumbnails"
box checked.
In other words, when the page loads I want to define which image displays as the first Hero image.
If I do not select the "Free Form Thumbnails" option, the top left Thumbnail image always displays first. This is fine.
But when I select the Free Form Thumbnails" checkbox I don't know how to define which image shows first as the Hero image.
I have a short video at this link where I illustrate the question:
http://amson.org/misc/default-hero-image-1.mp4
I have added a WMV video file at the link below:
http://amson.org/misc/default-hero-image-1.wmv
Okay… I think I've worked out how to do it!
[1] First have the "Free Form Thumbnails" box UNCHECKED.
[2] Organize the Thumbnails and place the image that you want to be the first Hero image when the page loads in the top left corner of the Thumbnails group.
[3] When you "Preview Site In Browser" the Thumbnail image in the top left corner will always display as the first Hero image.
[4] If you want "Free Form Thumbnails" go ahead now and SELECT that checkbox.
[5] Whichever image was in the top left of the Thumbnail group before you checked "Free Form Thumbnails" will still show up as the first Hero image when the page loads, regardless of where that thumbnail image is located within the Thumbnail images group.
Thanks very much.
Chris.

Hi,
The sequence of operation you are doing to set the home page for public users is correct. You are getting the login screen as the "custom page group" selected as "home page" has not been granted to public.
Also, while logging-out, it is normal behaviour to get the screen where it shows the list of partner applications from where user has been logged-out. When you click on "Return" button, you will get to the "home page" set above.
Hope it clarifies the things.

Chaptered video in Muse?

Hi,
I’m using Muse to make a site with embedded video, which is intended to run off a CD. I can embed the video without too many problems as an mp4 – BUT – I’d like to link buttons in the interface to specific points in the video, a bit like chapter markers on a DVD interface.
Does anyone know if this is possible?
I can place chapter markers on the mp4 and they’re recognized by Quicktime when I play through that.
Therefore is there a way of setting Quicktime as the default player that runs through Muse?
Any help much appreciated!
K

Hi Kingsley,
This is something that Muse can't control. Quicktime would be a browser extension, so only the users who has configured his browser to play videos using Quicktime will be able to pick the markers that you have created.
I am afraid what you are looking for is not possible to achieve via Muse at this stage.

How to embed music or video in Muse

Can music (mp3 files and video be embedded into a muse page?

Hi,
Please refer to this thread, Re: how do i embed audio (mp3) in muse?

Urgent: YouTube videos crashing Muse - part 2

i apologise for starting a new thread on an existing topic but i really think its more urgent than acknowledged.
Youtube videos will crash Muse if loaded on Lightbox Display comp. Its not sufficient to load one or two videos into the lightbox. It will take several videos before Muse crashes. Once Muse has crashed it will crash more regulary until it's difficult to place even one video into the lightbox. It seem like Muse can't digest the embed code because after it has crashed and relaunched it will attempt to finish loading the video, sometimes it can, sometimes it can't and sometimes it just crashes again in the effort.
Vimeo on the other hand is not a problem. I can load 10 vimeo videos one after the other and they all play perfectly.
In both tests i used new sites and fresh pages. I downloaded (tried) YT at 480 x 360 and 640 x 360 checking only the privacy box and adding autoplay (&autoplay=1). I downloaded Vimeo videos at their default sizes and only checked autoplay. I load the embeds via Object/Insert HTML.
I'm on WIN 8 and 7, i7s. Using Muse CC v7.2 Build 232, CL 779928. Air Runtime: 4.0.0.1390. My default browser is Chrome. However, same problem with ie10.
It's very definately YouTube specific, as I thought!

THANK YOU! I didn't understand the youtube no poster mul ib but once I downloaded it and started playing around with it, it worked!
I was so discouraged, since the website I created was for my videoagraphy company and all we have is YOUTUBE videos!! (Major painic!) but after taking the time to look into it it worked great!
I also didnt have any problem changing the size or costumizing it.
Here is what I did.
I downloaded the http://lancetest01.businesscatalyst.com/assets/youtube---no-poster.mul ib
Thing and uploaded it to my 'Library' in Muse,
I then took the 'blank' composition and edit the 'targets to' the size I wanted and inserted the 'posters' (in my case screen shots of the video.
Then clicked 'show all while editing'
I dragged and dropped the youtube - no - poster thing from my library and added the player into my lightbox composition.
and Et'viola!
I have a big library of video on my website. If anyone is curious here it is www.barrosproductionfilms.com
the youtube no poster thing is added in the 'Gallery' section.
Just to Clarify, I hope MUSE fixes this 'bug' problem, like others in this forum we are paying for a service to use MUSE and have all of the assets work, especially from one so big like youtube videos.
Thank you again and I hope this works for others!

Urgent: youtube videos crashing Muse

this feels very like the problem last summer with YouTube videos (i haven'nt tried Vimeo). Entering HTML code into the composition Lightbox display will crash Muse. Is anyone looking into it? Please and thank you.

Okay, several hours later, I've found a workaround. I've tried so many different things, I gave up taking careful notes, so I'm not really sure if I finally got the four YouTube videos loaded by luck or by actually figuring something out. But I did find what I think might be a workaround that I would suggest trying if anyone else is having this problem.
Here goes:
1. I had been able to get the videos to load on the Muse desktop version of my website a week before (with about a dozen crashes, but with lots of patience). So, I used these sucessfully embedded videos as a point of entry for getting the embed codes instead of by accessing the YouTube videos by first going on my YouTube channel. I accessed the videos by opening the file in Muse and previewing the page where the videos had successfully embeded by using the "preview page in browser" option in Muse.
2. I then clicked on the YouTube symbol on the bottom right of the frame aka "watch on YouTube.com". So this took me to the actual YouTube site where the video resides.
3. I then clicked on share, then embed. Here's where it got interesting! I suddenly saw different embed options this way than I had by accessing the video directly from my YouTube channel, even though in both situations I clicked on share and then on embed.
One of the options that wasn't availble when I accessed the video directly from my YouTube channel was to "use old embed code." So I selected that, and I selected "Enable privacy-enhanced mode." But I think I left the "Show suggested videos when the video finishes" option unselected, although I'm not sure if that was the case on each of the four videos. (Sorry, I'd been working on this for several hours and stopped taking notes.) Anyway, this generated a much longer embed code that I'd been getting before.
4. I did not use the Muse YouTube wiget to embed the video. (That had been causing Muse to crash, and it only takes the video ID, anyway.) Instead, I clicked on "insert HTML" and pasted in the full embed code from YouTube.
5. I have no idea why this worked, and I'm not even sure if it was the "use old embed code" that worked the first time. Maybe selecting other options would work. But I'm sure that using the old embed code is what did work for the 3rd and 4th videos that I embeded. It's what I would suggest to anyone if Muse is crashing when they are trying to insert a YouTube video.
Is it possible the problem was in my computer and this was simply a workaround for that? Absolutely.

Can I use MP4 video with Muse?

I was reading some old discussions, almost a year old, and am wondering about video in the latest version of CS6 Muse.
I have an MP4 file, which I suppose can be converted if need be, but can I embed video in Muse as opposed to only linking to YouTube?
Thanks in advance, everyone here is extremely helpful...

Use HTML5 Video tag for the purpose of embedding a .mp4. Refer to the following thread for more details on this.

Adobe Muse slideshow widget not working on Ipad

The Muse slideshow widget i'm using is working fine in desktop version (on my Imac and Macbook Pro Retina), but the targets (buttons) are not working when i open the website in my Safari Ipad. When i open in Ipad Chrome, it's working fine.
The address is http://www.safra7.com/clientes/pontual/linha_tempo
I can't figure what's wrong, after trying various solutions.
Thanks,
Felipe de Mello.

To answer your first question, a widget is essentially a app extension. Try the stock market app below, once you download it you'll be able to add a stock market widget to Notification Center. If the link below doesn't work go to the App Store and enter Stocks Widget by Peeksoft in the search field.

Embedded videos do not show up on certain webstites.

Embedded videos on certain websites (perezhilton.com) do not appear. I have downloaded Firefox's most recent update and that is when the problem started. I downloaded Google Chrome and the videos do appear and work fine on that browser.

You may have to install additional plugins.
