How do I load a video screensaver into my Apple TV?

I was in the Apple store yesterday, and noticed that the display Apple TV in the store would start playing a promo video as it's screensaver. I want my Apple TV to play a personal video as its screensaver. Does anyone know how to do this? Is it some kind of a hack?

Go to an Apple store, and see for yourself. There is absolutely a way to do it, and apparently there is a legitimate way to do it using Keynote.
as said, they are simply looping a video, which can easily by done by anyone (it's not a special apple trick).
however, if you know better feel free to try and find out and then share it with everyone.

  • How can i load a 8cm dvd into my drive ??

    Hi
    I am i being a little thick .... I have a sony handycam and it has 8cm dvd that i record onto.
    How can i load these dvd's into my macbook pro, notebook ??
    Please help
    Many thanks

    You can't. The MBP's slot-loading optical drive doesn't support nonstandard-sized discs at all.
    If the camcorder has a USB or FireWire output, you may be able to use that to transfer videos from it to the computer. Alternatives include buying a tray-loading external optical drive that can handle the oddball discs, or transferring the videos to a computer that has an internal tray-loader, then transferring them to the Mac from the other computer wirelessly, via a USB flash drive or external hard drive, or via a burned standard-sized disc.

  • How can I load an external SWF into a movie clip that's inside other movie clip?

    Hi.
    I creating my first flash (actionscript 3.0) website but I'm
    stuck with a visual effect I want to create.
    I have a window on my website called contentWindow. Every
    time you click a button this window is supposed to leave the stage,
    load the requested content and return to the stage.
    The sliding window is a movie clip with 83 frames, 21 to
    enter the stage, 21 to leave the stage again, 20 for nothing (its
    just to simulate the loading time) and 21 to return to the stage.
    Now my goal is, when the user clicks on a navigation button,
    the window exits the stage, loads an external SWF with the content,
    and then returns to the stage.
    I've the "window" movie clip with an instance name of
    "contentWindow". Inside there is another movie clip with an
    instance name of "contentLoader". The content that the user
    requested should appear inside the "contentLoader".
    Now, when the contentWindow leaves the stage, I get this
    error message:
    quote:
    TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of
    a null object reference.
    at rwd_fla::MainTimeline/trigger()
    If I switch
    "contentWindow.contentLoader.addChild(navLoader);" for
    "contentWindow.addChild(navLoader);" it works fine, but the
    external SWF doesn't move with the window.
    How can I load an external SWF into a movie clip that's
    inside other movie clip?

    Hi,
    Recently, I have been putting together a flash presentation.
    And I am just wondering if the following might help you, in your
    communication with the said swf file:
    loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,
    onComplete);
    function onComplete(event:Event):void
    event.target.content.thinggy_mc.y -= 100;
    Not the best example, but this allows you to target a mc
    within an external swf file. I think if you look up this code, you
    will have an answer ;)
    Kind Regards,
    Boxing Boom

  • How do I insert a video clip into the timeline?

    Do you happen to know how I could insert a video clip into the middle of a movie like you do in FCP? Can you add tracks and insert the clip above the spot i need to change for each movie.
    I don't want to render the whole movie (convert it into a MPeg2) each time.

    No - DVD timelines are a little different to FCP. If you need to add a clip to the stream, you need to split the exisitng clip (you could trim it back to where you want to insert the new piece) and drag the new piece onto the same timeline. If you trimmed the existing piece then add another instance of it to the timeline and trim the new part from the left until you get to what you want as the out point.
    If you have a collection of video clips on your DVDSP timeline, simply dragging a new one on will shuffle the others along appropriately. However, the audio will not shuffle with them, and you'll end up moving it all manually.
    The very best thing is to create the timeline precisely as you want it in FCP and encode it to MPEG2 before bringing it in to DVDSP. Remember that DVDSP is not an editor, it is a place to assemble your work - it won't do anything remotely like FCP in that respect.

  • How do I load music videos from my computer to my iPad when I don't have import in my iTunes

    How do I load music videos from my computer on to my iPad when I don't have "import" on my iTunes?

    Could you explain more? WHat do you mean that you do not have "import" on iTunes? Are you trying to find an import command to add the videos to your iTunes media library? It is called Add to library and is found in the iTunes File menu.
    But you can add files to the iTunes media library by just dropping the files onto the iTunes icon.

  • How do I import mp4 video files into Premiere Pro Cs4

    For sometime now, I've been finding it practically impossible to import video files into premiere Pro cs4 especially mp4 files which happens to be the commonest to me now, as I currently shoot with a Nokia Lumia 920 phone with Windows phone 8 OS. I have tried severally to convert the videos into various other formats using Xilisoft video converter version 7.7.2 and each time I do this, they would either not play fine in cs4 or not import at all.
    Please what can I do to be able to import these mp4 files into Cs4 or what format or how do I convert them into a format that would play seamlessly for better editing?
    Funny enough, I had once imported video files that were shot with the same phone and they worked well, just wondering why they aren't now.
    Please any assistance would be appreciated.
    Thanks
    NKC

    I'm happy to announce to you all that my "mp4 importing" issues has been sorted out. Now I import mp4 shot with the same Windows Phone 8 Device into Adobe Premiere Pro CS4. Only that for the moment, it doesn't play as fast as with ordinary player.
    But how did I get it to work, you may wonder;
    I simply installed Itunes on the system, I also installed an app called media monkey. I can't say which of the apps did the magic but the next time I tried to import mp4 files into Premiere Pro after these installations, it imported seamlessly.
    Obviously there's a link between the required codecs and the itunes itself.
    You may want to try it and hope it works for you.
    Kindly inform us if it works.
    Thank you all.
    Cheers.

  • How do I load Icc print profiles into p/s cc

    can't load icc print profiles into photoshop cc

    Well, that's not much info.
    Have you rebooted both the Mac and the printer after the installation?  Which printer make and model?  What exact version of the OS?
    Are you sure they are in fact printer profiles?  The printer driver expects true printer profiles specific to your combination of ink, paper and ink.  Otherwise they won't show up in your list.
    Where exactly did you obtain the profiles from.  Do they have the proper extension?
    Etc.
    BOILERPLATE TEXT:
    If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand, such as your platform (Mac or Win), exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop and of Bridge, machine specs, what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far, what error message(s) you receive, if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them, etc., someone may be able to help you.

  • How can I load a pdf-file into a byte[]?

    Hello,
    I would like to load a PDF-File into a byte-Array. How can I do this? The standard Streams shouldn't work because this can't be converted into characters. Can it? So, what does work?
    Any idea?
    Bye,
    Wolfang

    Why would someone not do:
    ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
    InputStream is = new FileInputStream("foo.pdf");
    byte[] buf = new byte[4096];
    for(int len=-1;(len=is.read(buf))!=-1;)
            baos.write(buf,0,len);
    is.close();
    baos.flush();
    baos.close();
    buf = baos.toByteArray();  // Here are you bytes!You don't need to know the exact size, let ByteArrayOutputStream do it for you. Streams are generally for bytes, Readers/Writers generally for characters. Why exactly did you say: ``The standard Streams shouldn't work because this can't be converted into characters?''

  • How Do I Load An Animated GIF Into PictureBox Control From Byte Array?

    I'm having a problem with loading an animated GIF int a picturebox control in a C# program after it has been converted to a base64 string, then converted to a byte array, then written to binary, then converted to a base64 string again, then converted to
    a byte array, then loaded into a memory stream and finally into a picturebox control.
    Here's the step-by-step code I've written:
    1. First I open an animated GIF from a file and load it directly into a picturebox control. It animates just fine.
    2. Next I convert the image in the picturebox control (pbTitlePageImage) to a base64 string as shown in the code below:
                    if (pbTitlePageImage.Image != null)
                        string Image2BConverted;
                        using (Bitmap bm = new Bitmap(pbTitlePageImage.Image))
                            using (MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream())
                                bm.Save(ms, ImageFormat.Jpeg);
                                Image2BConverted = Convert.ToBase64String(ms.ToArray());
                                GameInfo.TitlePageImage = Image2BConverted;
                                ms.Close();
                                GameInfo.TitlePageImagePresent = true;
                                ProjectNeedsSaving = true;
    3. Then I write the base64 string to a binary file using FileStream and BinaryWriter.
    4. Next I get the image from the binary file using FileStream and BinaryReader and assign it to a string variable. It is now a base64 string again.
    5. Next I load the base64 string into a byte array, then I load it into StreamReader and finally into the picturebox control (pbGameImages) as shown in the code below:
    byte[] TitlePageImageBuffer = Convert.FromBase64String(GameInfo.TitlePageImage);
                            MemoryStream memTitlePageImageStream = new MemoryStream(TitlePageImageBuffer, 0, TitlePageImageBuffer.Length);
                            memTitlePageImageStream.Write(TitlePageImageBuffer, 0, TitlePageImageBuffer.Length);
                            memTitlePageImageStream.Position = 0;
                            pbGameImages.Image = Image.FromStream(memTitlePageImageStream, true);
                            memTitlePageImageStream.Close();
                            memTitlePageImageStream = null;
                            TitlePageImageBuffer = null;
    This step-by-step will work with all image file types except animated GIFs (standard GIFs work fine). It looks like it's just taking one frame from the animation and loading it into the picturebox. I need to be able to load the entire animation. Does any of
    the code above cause the animation to be lost? Any ideas?

    There is an ImageAnimator so you may not need to use byte array instead.
