Having a qt movie auto play and loop without controls

I have a qt movie that I want to place on a page in iweb - but i want it to autoplay and loop and do not want the controls to show at the bottom of the movie- can this be done?
thanks

Yes, and there's a couple different ways to do this. One way is to use a specially created QuickTime movie that will play and loop a remote movie. I've gone through some steps of how to do this here.
(turn your volume down, loud movie at the following link)

Another way is to edit the .js file for that page so that you set the
autoplay to true,
controller to false,
loop to true,
and adjust the size of the movie to be 16 pixels shorter to account for the missing controller. I used part of THAT technique on some movies here.

Here are some more specific instructions. These are for audio, but with a few changes, could be for your video as well.

  • Are there any settings in the options (or anywhere else) that I can use to set up an auto confirm and resend without having to manually click the 'resend' butto

    There is a certain website I use that I refresh frequently. Every time I do I get a pop up message labeled ‘Confirm’ with a question mark in it that says;
    “To display this page, Firefox must send information that will repeat any action (such as a search or order confirmation) that was performed earlier."
    It only seems to be a problem with this one particular site. Are there any settings in the options (or anywhere else) that I can use to set up an auto confirm and resend without having to manually click the ‘resend’ button in the pop up window?

    Hi cor-el, Thanks for responding;
    I am accustomed to seeing this type of pop up on occasion and understand why they are necessary to prevent duplicating orders, payments, etc. I am not using a back button, I wanted to use an auto-refresh app to search for reservation openings on a certain web site and can not because this pop up requires me to manually push a button every time the page refreshes. I am resending the same information every time (a date range) via the POST form, so, was hoping there was a way to either disable, override, or set up and auto response so I can use the auto-refresh app. Your description of how to avoid the pop up didn't entirely make sense to me, but If I have to do a bunch of manual steps in between each refresh attempt it doesn't matter because I'm no better off.

    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
    When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
    If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click  Log in.
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. 
    There will be no audio output in safe mode. The question to be answered by the test is whether any devices are listed in the Sound preference pane. After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Is it possible to let Spry Tab Panels play and loop automatically?

    Hello everyone,
    I have created several Spry tab panels and they appeared to
    be working perfectly as I need them to.
    However, I was wondering if there is a way to have the tab
    panels play automatically and loop like a slide show on page load.
    So when a user vists the page, the panels will play or
    transition like a slide show.
    Is this at all possible?
    Thanks everyone - Patrick

    A few missing pieces here...
    1. Are you using Kerio on your machine, or that is what your hosting provider is running? (I will assume the former).
    2. Does your hosting provider accept mail to AnyUser@yourdomain, or only to legitimat users at your site? If the former, it is no wonder you are getting hammered by spam. You will take anything. Your provider might be able to filter against an RBL list, but that probably only takes out about 70% of the spam on a good day.
    Anti-spam filtering takes place on the SMTP side of the server. Once the mail is delivered to your SP, you've got the mail and have to deal with it on the client side. Ugly at best. Fetchmail will not help you here.
    OS X mail does have a pretty good selection of anti-spam tools. Most notably, SpamAssassin and greylisting. But both (greylisting in particular) require your mail server be the only mail server for your domain for best results.
    Mail does not require particularly high availability. If your mail server is missing for a while, the sending site will try again later. Mail is very resilient to temporary failures. You could set up your SP as a backup MX host if you want, but I would submit that would increase your spam load when your server is down or missing (mail relay from a secondary host, short circuits the greylisting feature).
    I do not know Kerio myself, but for mail alone, the built in mail services in OS X (current version) are pretty good. But you are shooting yourself in the foot by having your SP collecting mail for you, especially if they will accept any user.

  • TS3354 I have Windows 8 and some of my HD movies will play and others will not.  Any suggestions?

    Some of my HD movies will not play in WIndows 8.

    This is for the Windows 8-8.1 users out there:  If you have the Pro version of Windows 8 and just recently upgraded, Microsoft automatically includes a Virtual Machine package called Hyper-V client.  It doesn't ask you if you want to install it, it just does.
    This may also apply to Windows 7 users who may have inadvertently installed some version of Hyper-V on their computer.
    The Hyper-V package installs a secondary video driver that breaks HDCP, which means you can't play HD movies even on a compliant system.  You need to get rid of it.  To do so:
    Go to Control Panel
    Programs and Features
    Turn Windows Features on or Off
    Uncheck "Hyper-V"
    Reboot.
    This applies to almost anything that requires HDCP, so if you're having trouble with Blu-Rays or Amazon Prime, that's likely the culprit.

  • How to make a movie start automatically and loop continuously

    Hi there,
    Two beginner questions here for a kind helpful person out there. I have searched the Encore help option but the answers all refer to menu options.
    I have exported a simple movie from Premiere into Encore. There is no menu. It if for a museum and the client wants to simply insert the DVD and for it to launch itself and then play on a continuous loop. They don't want any interactivity.
    So, my question is how do I apply a simple, 'on insert - play' rule and 'on end - go back to beginning and play' so that this happens automatically?
    Thanks in advance for any help.
    M

    Hi peachespeaches,
    rightfully, at the Menu>properties>Motion>just make sure the "Loop #:" stated "Forever" and your "Loop Point" and "Duration" will automatically adjusted when you insert the movie clip on the background of your Menu. I'm using a CS5 Encore... Trying out for very long time yet couldn't achieve it... However, I use to do it on Encore 1.5, no problem at all, it works! Just don't know why it doesn't on CS5 Encore... I'm suspecting that the software I'm holding might have some problem? Hope you are using CS5 Encore also, could you try on and let me know if it works on your side?
    Jaze,

  • *.mov files play on ipad without audio

    I have recently transferred some *.mov files from my PC to iPad. These files play perfectly well on PC in both Quicktime Player and Windows Media Player. However, when I try to play them on iPad, I get video only (no sound). I have latest versions of all softwares so cannot figure out why iPad is not playing audio of only these files. I had some old *.mov files on my iPad which play perfectly well (both video and audio) so how can I fix this problem.

    I had some WMV files which I had converted to *.MOV using AVS Video Converter. I have compared the properties of old *.MOV files which play on iPad perfectly well (using QuickTime Player) with the properties of the newly-transferred files and they are exactly the same in every aspect. Is it possible that because of low memory (about 4GB) left on iPad after the new files' transfer, the audio is not playing on iPad?

  • FIX SLIDE SHOW FREEZE (auto play / loop) IWEB 09

    IWEB 09
    I Dropped a still shot slide show quicktime video onto my home pg. I used inspector to remove the play menue bar tab and then selected the video to AUTO PLAY and LOOP
    When you go to the site everything is fine until your mouse curser crosses over the video and you simultaneously scroll down... it freezes the video and unless your smart enough to double click on the video to start play again it will just freez up.
    Why is this happeneing? how do we avoid this? the whole purpose to dropping a video on your pg and having it run in auto play and loop is to be hands free and allow playback while you navigate... it shouldn't freeze up like that
    anyone ever have this issue? know how to fix it?
    Would very much appreciate your help
    go to www.flatironfinishes.com you will see what I am talking about
    Thank you!!

    yeah you bring up a good point, I think as I was reading tutorial on how to upload audio and auto play/loop it I added it to the pg. and then took the company logo and pasted over that audio box...... later I wtched tutarial on uploading a quicktimes video and auto playing / looping
    Yeah I am not to savy on codes and website building.... but can go back into IMOVIE and add in the audio to the movie file and have only one file...
    Thank you for pointing that out.
    now the html snippet is not recognizig the folder and file in my FTP files?? so the quicktime icon is showing.
    So lets say I combine the audio and the video and then drag n drop it into the home pg. as originally done...
    If it continues to freeze when you move the cursure over the video and scroll down..... what would I do?
    moving the curser over the video does nothing its the combonation of scroilling down and having the curser over the video that it freezes up??
    appreciate you guys walking e through this
    S
    I am getting closer... I think?

  • How to make an auto play, auto loop DVD

    I can't find any option or help file on how to make a DVD's contents loop. I don't need any menus just the movie to play and loop. Can anyone help me out here? Cheers

    You are most welcome, but Jeff did the "heavy lifting," like Ann Bens did in the PrPro forum.
    The important thing is that you get what you need.
    I'd ditch the Memorex discs, and settle on Verbatim, or Taiyo Yudens. I once used Memorex tape (probably back in your dad's, or grand-dad's day), and it was good. However, for blank DVD media, they adopted a poor business plan - buy the very cheapest source media, and emboss it with their logo. In a spindle of 100, you might find 3 - 4 different mfgr's media. TDK was once good, but went with the Memorex business plan.
    There are several media info utilities, and even the free ImgBurn can tell you, but it is always interesting to put in a Memorex disc, and see who actually made it, plus the lot number. Some discs might be good, but then some others can be horrible.
    Good luck,

  • How do I stop my movie from playing?

    I have used previous versions of Adobe Flash and now have Professional CS5.5, and I am coming to you with an embarrasingly, ridiculously stupid question that is absolutely stumping me. My movie cannot stop playing, no matter how many stop(); I've embedded in there. I created a layer on top, added the stop(); code at the end of the scene, and the swf ignores it and starts playing the next scene. As an experiment, I put a stop(); on the very first frame of the .fla, but that too is ignored. I have dozens of stop(); action commands riddled throughout the movie, but not a one of them is capable of stopping the exported movie from playing and looping. I assume there must be some simple, easy property or code trick or document preference or something that I've overlooked, but I can't for the life of me figure out what it is. I thought stop(); was one of the easiest commands of all, but apparently it has stumped me. Help!

    This is literally what I have in the first frame of the actions layer of the Main Menu....
             stop();
    ...and when I export into a .swf movie, the movie does not stop.
    Update: in case anyone wants to know, all that is on the stage on the first frame are three images, two of which are at the beginning of a motion tween. There are movie clips and buttons elsewhere in the movie, but none exist on the first frame. FYI.

  • Want movie to auto play -- do I need to import it twice?

    I made a 58-minute video in iMovie HD with iDVD chapters, then I clicked the button to send the movie to iDVD 5. The movie imported great into iDVD and was to take 3.9GB of a 4.0GB DVD. However, when I clicked the "map," I noticed the first slide was to auto play the movie. GREAT, I thought, that's what I want, as this DVD is for a bunch of seniors who would benefit from auto play, but then also being able to select a certain scene that they wanted to go back to (it is a video of a speaker on medicare with a corresponding printed outline).
    When I selected the movie from my movies folder and drug it to that first slide in the map field, which was auto play, I noticed that then the size of my project went from 3.9GB to 7.8GB. It would all fit on a DVD-R, but the quality would be reduced because with all that data, iDVD would need to compress more. I don't really need to import the movie twice, do I, if I want auto play AND chapter selection?
    My question is, is there a way to use the same movie in iDVD to auto play AND to be able to select the scenes/chapters I inicated? I tried to drag and drop the movie in the map view on the third slide to the first slide, but it would not allow me to move it, or set up an alias pointing to the original movie.
    I suppose I can delete the third slide movie that iMovie auto imported and then just import the movie manually to auto play area, but then I don't know if that will erase allow for the use of chapters. Does anyone know about this?
    Please help if you can. Thanks.

    I think I may answer my own question here. According to this page http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=164968, it says "iDVD doesn't create scene menus for autoplay movies." So if I want a movie to auto play AND have scene menus using the chapter markers, I will need to import the movie twice and just live with lower quality. If anyone else has any input, I'd love to hear it, but I really need to keep the scene menus in my movie AND would like auto play. For now, I think I will just pass on the auto play, as I need scene menus more than auto play.
