How do I just have a video as my theme?

How do I just have a video as my theme?
I don't want any of these themes, I just want a video to play full screen in the background while you're selecting buttons etc...
Can this be done?

Hello eric.lahm,
Welcome to the discussions. Yes, you can do this easily if you have the old themes from prior versions of iDVD.
If you can get the old themes, there are several that will work for you. I tested these by dropping a short video into the drop zone well, and they gave just what you want: a full screen video (with its audio) playing with the buttons overlaying it. By opening Inspector and selecting 'Free Position' I moved the buttons so that they did not obscure the video.
Was remarkably simple! You can always mute the audio if you don't want that to play.
The themes that work best: Marquee, Sky, Chalkboard, YourPhotoHere..because the buttons are text buttons that do not interfere with the running video. Others that will work but have the buttons showing clips/stills are Kids Blue, Kids Pink, Baby Blue, Baby Pink, Graphite, Sage, Brushed Metal9, Burlap, Leather,Happy Days--you get the idea--basically any theme that has just one drop zone for the main menu, so that the chosen video (or Photo) fills the screen.
Hope this helps you.

How many Touchsmart users have had video / display problems?

I'm wondering if any other Touchsmart users that use the Nvidia chips have had video issues? Nvidia & HP have admitted issues with some products, though HP don't mention the Touchsmart as one of the affected models,despite the fact that some Touchsmarts (eg IQ770) have both the GeForce Go 7600 chip and AMD Turion processors. But many HP users are reporting problems with other models as well.
In my case my IQ770 completely failed with a sort of checker board pattern within the warranty period, and HP fixed it (eventually!). Now the warranty has expired I'm experiencing intermittent video issues whereby the screen colors go all weird for varying periods (minutes to days), as though the color depth has gone way down, or someone is using a bad chromakey effect. Anecdotally this appears to be heat related. I've ruled out software issues by clean booting from a boot CD. Unfortunately the intermittent nature means that even if I send it for repair, I won't immediately know if the problem has been succesfully fixed, or if in fact anything was done at all!!
So has anyone else experienced video problems?

Is there a way to prevent pictures/video from uploading to iCloud photo library from my iPhone and just have pictures/video from my Macbook in Photos upload to iCloud Photo Library?

I would like just my imported photos and video in the Photos App to be synced to my iCloud Photo Library, and not the photos and video from my iPhone. Is there a way to do this?

You can either sync them back to your iPhone is you have them saved on a computer, or you can restore from a backup if you have one. Those would be about your only options. iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes

How do i just have the main MENU appear when DVD opened in player?

i'm doing a DVD in iDVD08 & when i burn it & try in a DVD player the first movie starts playing automatically whereas i want just the main menu to come up showing all the submenus available. can someone tell me how to do this as i can't find any info in help files & an iLIFE manual i own.
thanks
Gary

thanks for replying.
i have tried to delete the first square (the greyed one that says "drag content here to automatically play when the disc is inserted) as i surmised this might be the thing to do to bring up the main menu first but iDVD 08 won't let me delete it?

Since Apple has stopped supporting and offering iDVD you'll need to purchase the iLIfe 11 disk from a 3rd party retailer like Amazon.com: iLife 11 which will include iDVD 7.

How can I view just music - not videos - in the libary and playlists?

I've noticed that when creating smart playlists and viewing the libarary I cannot filter out videos... is there a way to do this without having to just uncheck the videos and pretend they aren't there or is this something that apple didn't think of?
I want to create smart playlists to listen to in my car and want to back up my library on dvd-roms, that is where this becomes a problem. If anyone knows how to change the settings so that videos don't show up in certain playlists or on the libarary I would appreciate it a lot.

How to change output video resolution. I have 1920x1080 video but sharing from FCPX only allows 640x480. I want 1920 output. How can I resolve this?

I have 1920x1080 video file that I edited. When I attempt to share the edited file from FCPX, it only allows 640x480 output resolution. I want 1920 output. How can I resolve this?

Hi,
Final Cut will output the video at the resolution of your project's timeline.
You can change the settings and scale your project up though by adjusting the sequence settings and then, if necessary, copying and pasting attributes to scale up the sequence.
I had this question before and made a video explanation of how to re-scale a sequence here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=***9d-rHsKo&feature=youtu.be .
If you have any more questions about this then just drop me a message here.
Cheers,
Ben

Have you seen my User Tipp here
"Movie Magic" with Stills and Dissolve
When you 'prep' your stills in any 'picture app', you can do a lot of marvel by simply applying dissolves.
In your case, I would create a white document (in Pixelmator, Keynote, Photshop, online at pixlr.com, whatever ...) and another with your logo (and further more ones with additional logos). Drag the jpgs into your iMovie Project and apply dissolves - tadahh! - logos appear on white.

I have 2 video credits and I don't know how to use them

I have 2 video credits and I don't know how to use them

Would it matter how much the videos are? I bought a season of a tv show two of the episodes were not able to air so I got the two credits I just don't want to accidentally buy something right now. Thanks for the responses though that is what I thought I had to do.

If you don't have your iPhone anymore, you can't access the data on it remotely.
However, if you are syncing to iCloud, you can set up iCloud syncing on your computer and at least get your contact info.
iCloud: Set up iCloud on your devices
You might also think about putting your device in lost mode or erasing it:
What steps should I take if I misplace my device?
If you ever misplace your device—whether it’s just lost or you think it may have been stolen—you should put it into Lost Mode immediately using Find My iPhone.
Lost Mode locks your screen with a four-digit passcode and lets you display a custom message with your phone number to help you get it back. You can also remotely erase your device if needed, and your custom message will continue to display even after the device is erased.
While Activation Lock works in the background to make it more difficult for someone to use or sell your missing device, Lost Mode clearly indicates to anyone who finds your device that it still belongs to you and can’t be reactivated without your password.
To put a device into Lost Mode, sign in to icloud.com/find from a Mac or PC or use the Find My iPhone iOS app.
For more information, read what to do if your device is lost or stolen.

HT201269 I don't want restore everything on my old phone just my pictures/videos...how do I do that without erasing anything from my new phone?

I don't want restore everything on my old phone just my pictures/videos...how do I do that without erasing anything from my new phone?

So, I went to Target and upgraded from a 4 to a 4S and the woman there told me she transferred over all of my info off the old phone (which was not true, I'm missing my videos). So, I've been using my new 4S for about 7 months now and I don't want to erase the information off of it but on my iCloud I still have listed my iPhone4 with 8gigs of information that I cannot access and it's very frustrating. You would think I'd be able to look at all the data and get what I want but I can't...or can I? What are my options?
THANKS SO MUCH!

My power button is flashing (white) and I have no video, no beep, just rapid flashing

The power button on my mac pro is flashing (white) and I have no video, no beep, just rapid flashing.

"Almost all flashing power button at startup problems are caused by RAM issues."
Wow, how a simple search here saved me a lot of time, THNX!!
One of my 8 Transcend 2GB 800 MHz DDR2 FB-DIMM RAM modules caused this fault. Strangely no red led on any of the 2 RAM trays, so I had to trial-and-error all modules on each of the two RAM trays to find out wich module broke on me.
