How can I control the video playback start and end time?

I'd like to be able to start a video/audio playback at a particular point in time say 3 seconds from the starts of the video and play it for only 3 seconds. How can I set the unique start and end points rather than play the whole video. I'd also like to be able to do this using the SeriesElement so I can set the start and end play points for a series of stacked videos. How can this be achieved?

Not sure I understand the question.  Can't you just append the param to the URL?  Like so:
var url = new URL("http://video-research/video.f4v?start_time=500");
If your question is more about playing a subclip of a progressive video, that's not something OSMF has support for.  You'd need to write a server script which checks for that parameter and then returns the relevant portion of the requested file.  (This is typically referred to as "pseudo-streaming", if you Google that term you'll find a wealth of info.)

  • How can I make a brush that starts and ends in a thin line?

    I am looking to make a brush that I can use for cartooning in CS6 that starts out thin, gets thicker with pressure (I have a cintiq), and ends in a thin line. Does anyone have the expertise to make one?
    Thank you.

    I watched the first half of the tutorial from your link and some parts of the rest. It is a good tutorial. He is using an art brush which profile was created from an elliptical shape with sharp corners which gives that ink kind of appearance which is good for this kind of style. Most of the time though I prefer the appearance of the rounded ends of the calligraphic brushes. Also one advantage of the calligraphic brushes is that it can change its size or the size of the selected strokes with the [ and ] keys on the keyboard while with the art brushes this is done by changing the stroke weight which also can change the weight of calligraphic brushes in addition to the [ and ] keys.
    Like in the tutorial I often use a similar workflow ending up with the brush strokes converted to filled paths but I simply use expand appearance then remove the unwanted parts with the Eraser brush which can be made pressure sensitive in the options that you get when double clicking the Eraser tool. This is less precise than the technique the guy is using in the video tutorial but it is quick, I like  the hand touch appearance of the imperfections, and it also allows me to paint the white (transparent) highlights like for example the highlights on the booths of my cowboy. The Blob brush is the tool above the Eraser in the Tool panel and works basically the same like the Eraser but it adds to the fill of a path and it also has these and more options when you double click it. I use it most of the time in a combination with the Eraser to add or remove final details of illustrations started initially with brush strokes and then expanded. And like in the video tutorial I also like to keep a copy with the stage before expanding the brush strokes in case I need some changes on brush stroke level.
    I also use a different technique for adding new color fills on the illustrations instead of cutting paths with the knife. I don't like the knife because I often do not like the first cut which I may realize later when undo is not the best workflow. What I do is copy paste in front the path and use the pencil tool set to edit the selected paths and change the shape of the selected path similar to using the knife but the pencil has to start and end on the path. The advantage of this for me is that the new fill with the different color is overlapping the original fill behind and when later I decide to change its shape I don't get gaps between the two colors which is what will happen if the knife was used.

  • How to print a monthly calendar with start and end times

    Hi,
    I'm trying to print my monthly calendar and the times of the appointments do not show up.
    Am i missing something?

    It looks like we're not alone in looking for this feature. I found 28 other posts to this forum alone asking for this functionality (dating back to August 2005).
    I know Apple likes to be different and elegant with their apps, but until iCal adds this trivial feature, it's not an adequate replacement for even paper calendars.
    Do the engineers in Cupertino not care how long their appointments last? Why not at least let users show the end time on appointments as an option in month view?
    The most common advice in response to this post is to provide feedback here:

  • How can I control the order of accounts and folders in the folder pane?

    I have many email accounts, and most of them share the same message store in Local Folders and I routinely download mail from all of this group. Additionally, I have a number of miscellaneous email accounts from which I do not regularly download email, so I have kept them showing as distinct accounts. However, since they are not important, I would rather that they come at the end of the list in the folder pane, as it does not matter much if they scroll off the bottom. Nevertheless, the folders for these accounts seem to insist on appearing before those for Local Accounts. I'd like to change that.
    The explicit folders that I have created under Local Folders seem to insist on appearing in alphabetic order. Is there any way to override that?

    Perfect! Thanks. It does exactly what I wanted and more.
    Odd that it failed to turn up as a result of the search based on my initial question. My query had all the right words to get a hit. Hmmm ...
    Now I am embarrassed. I just googled "thunderbird" followed by an exact quote of the question that is the subject of this thread, and guess what turned up at the top of the list! It should have occurred to me to try Google before I tried the question here. I guess I just never expected that there would be such a clean solution. Perhaps with my question now in the Mozilla database, others can benefit if they ask a similar question here.

  • How to get start and end time of an ESB instance in SOA 10.1.3.4

    Hi All,
    I am using soa 10.1.3.4 and want to track the esb instance start and end time. (For example, in case of bpel we can query the cube instance table to get creation and modify time of an instance. )
    How to get that in esb?
    Thank you.
    Regards,
    Satish

    Hi Satish
    You may enable instance tracking option on the ESB Console and track the instances audit information and also from the logs(log.xml) when ESB loggers are set to DEBUG mode.

  • How can I control the order of playback on MuVu Mix (USB 2.

    What determines the order of playback of music files stored on the MuVu Mix (USB 2.0)? How can I control the order?
    Apparently it is not name order. The music titles are prefixed by sequential numbers. But that is not the order that the files play back.
    I tried erasing all contents, then copying the files one by one to the MuVo Mix in the order that I want them to play back (name order). But that is not the order that the files play back.
    By the way, in both case, I removed the ".dat" file first. (I also tried keeping the ".dat" file, to no avail.)

    SSR wrote:

    I did, and they confirmed (very quickly; kudos!) what you and I both expect: the play order is determined by the alphabetical order of the file names. The mistake was mine. I ass-u-me-d that the MSWin folder "Name ^" order was correct. I did not realize that it is not exactly alphabetical when the file name begins with a number (e.g, the track number). I had renumbered songs from a second CD by simply adding 00 to the track number. Thus, songs and 2 of the first CD are played after songs 08 and 09 of the second CD, as they should alphabetically, even though they appear in the order , 2, 08, 09 in the "Name ^" list. Klunk! Mea cupla!

  • How can i detach the video from a clip so i can only use the audio when using imovie?

    how can i detach the video from a clip so i can only use the audio when using imovie?

    First, go to iMovie/Preferences and enable the Advanced Tools.
    Import the video clip into an iMovie Event. When you get ready to use it in an iMovie Project, select the clip in the Event and drag & drop it on top of a video or photo clip in the project at the place where you want it to begin. When the pop-up menu appears, choose Audio Only.

  • How can I control the zoom on my mac mouse?

    How can I control the zoom function on my mouse? In the middle of working on things my hand will rub the mouse by accident and all of a sudden the context within the screen is large. I have no idea of how to work this feature on my mouse and most times to get it to return to normal, I have to escape out of the work I am performing.

    If you are pressing the "Control" button on the Mac keyboard, scrolling up will zoom in and scrolling down will zoom out. You can disable this if it annoys you through System Preferences > Universal Access. If you are using Mountain Lion, it would be System Preferences > Accessibility.
    Uncheck the in the "Seeing" or "Zoom" section that says "Use scroll gesture with modifier keys to zoom".  It may be slightly different if you have an older OS X version. I have Mountain Lion and am going off of memory on the older versions.

  • How can I delete the video and keep the Audio  in a few frames using Imovie 11

    How can I delete the video and keep the Audio  in a few frames using Imovie 11?

    I've met the problem too before. but i solved it with  Audio Converter Mac instead of iMovie. If you have similar situation that just want to keep audio but not video, and if your file format is not workable in iMovie, you can use the Audio Converter for help too. it can easily help to extract audio soundtrack from any video format. Or if you need to convert one audio format to another, it is a good choice too, because it supports many common audio output formats.

    How can I control the volume in a Apple Tv movie from my remote control App. In my IPad ?.

    There is not now, nor has there ever been a version of flash for any iOS device.
    Adobe has abandoned mobile flash, so there never will be.
    Browsers like iswifter or photon may work for you, but don't hold your breath.
    Check app store for an app of whatever game you want.

    Hi,Swing Gurus
    I am developing a swing-based program using JBulider5 enterprise.
    It seems to me that the GridBagLayout is really a hard nut!
    How can I control the size of a cell in the GridBagLayout?
    It seems that I cann't control the size of a cell directly.
    But how the size of a particular cell is determined when I switch the layout manager from XYLayout to GridBagLayout?
    Thx in advance!
    Regards,

    hi,i have not done what you are asking but there are fields like
    COLUMNWIDTH, MINSIZE, MAXGRIDSIZE, PREFEREDSIZE to which you can set the appropriate values and test for your need.hope this helped.bye martian.

    My videos from my iphone are horrible when I transfer them to my PC. How can I improve the video on my PC? Can I just convert the files to WMV? When the video plays the speed is off, it's half slow-motion and staggers into normal play. The clips are slightly cut as well, the clips do not roll continuously.  I'm taling about videos that are no more than 2 minutes long.  I'm frustrated and I could really use some advice-my kids basketball games is what I'm recording and I'm trying to send them to my family (they are not very tech savvy). Thanks

    Not it's only function but one for which it was most admirably suited, which is why I really hope someone can find a work around. I am hoping my post to the Apple feedback may prompt a useful response from Apple and I live in hope that my post here will elicit a useful response from another user. I did not miss the the text at the top of the feedback form but you presumably missed my initial text, 'someone here can explain' or my subsequent 'work around from another user'
    Just in case anyone reading this has a large collection of music videos, video podcasts or iTunes U then DO NOT upgrade your iPad to iOS 5. If you are considering purchasing the iPad as a useful mobile device to experience these media organised in your iTunes please don't as you will be wasting your money. (unless someone on this forum knows of a way to undo the mess created by those infallible folks at Apple)
    Yes I know it does other things but the purpose I bought it for doesn't work anymore
