How do I loop a movie?

I don't remember how to make a movie into a continuous loop.

In iMovie select iDVD in the Share menu. Open iDVD and choos "Create a New Project" in the dialog that appears.
Type a name for your project in the "Save As" field, and click Create.
The iDVD window opens with a default theme, you can ignore this because an autoplay DVD does not use a theme.
Click the Map button. Click the Media button, then click Movies or Photos.
Drag a Movie or Photo Album from the media pane to the project icon.
Click the Project icon and choose Advanced>Loop Movei or Loop Slideshow.
Click the Preview button and view your movie or slideshow.
When you are finished, click the Exit button on the DVD remote control to return to the iDVD window.
You can then burn the DVD as continuous loop. It begins to play immediately and will play until you click stop

How do I loop a movie for Apple TV

I have looked at the archives and I cannot get it to work the way it is explained.
I have saved a QT movie with Loop checked. It loops fine after it is saved before I send it to iTunes
When I send it to iTunes it will not loop. For some reason when I create a Playlist with the movie in it and ask it to repeat it does not show up in the playlist when I want to send it to Apple TV.
Any help would be appreciated..I'm getting frustrated!
Thanks
Kris

How did you do that?
I have been waiting for a solution to loop my movie in Apple TV.
What versions of iTunes, Apple TV, did you use?
Thanks millions in advance...

Automator - How do I: Mouse Click, Move Windows, and more

Hello,
I am attempting to create my own Automator programs and for a while I had some that worked nicely. I have recently been tweaking my iMac so that it can "think" on its own (by automator of course) and do things for me. However, I've run across a block with Mavericks (I believe it's due to Mavericks).
1. How can I get Automator to register a mouse click? "Watch me do" does not seem to want to work for me at all. I also would prefer if it would just be a registered mouse click, but not actually use the mouse (I know this is possible) so that if I'm doing something and it runs, it won't disturb my mouse and I can keep working.
2. How can I register a keyboard stroke? Same as above
3. How can I have automator move windows? I have two monitors and there are times when I may want it to move a window from one mintor to another
The following is a list of all the things I'm attempting to accomplish at the moment (with other things when I think of them) with automator (either through applications, folder actions, or ical actions):
1. Register a mouse click at a given area or on a given element in a safari page
2. Register a keyboard stroke in a given program (be able to focus on a program and then do the keystroke)
3. Move windows from one location to another
4. Full-screen and Un-full-screen iTunes at certain times of day
5. Download all purchased items on iTunes that aren't on the computer (sometimes iTunes doesn't download stuff if it was downloaded on my MacBook Pro first)
6. Automatically voice read reminders (that I've set in Reminders) each day at a given time (I can use loop to repeat it to make sure I hear it all)
I'll think of more of course, but the mouse click, keyboard stroke, and moving windows is the big thing I'm trying to figure out how to do. Can anyone help?
Also, I am not a computer tech. I am tinkering with this because it's fun and helpful, but an answer of "just use applescript" or "just use java" will likely just give me a headache. I know that it's going to be one of those codes, but I'm hoping someone has a "base" code that can be copied and pasted that's just a standard click that I can adjust for where I need to click and what process I need to click on.
If there is an Action Pack that includes a "Register Mouse Click" and/or "Register Keyboard Stroke", then that would work great, but the only action packs for automator I've seen that work with Mavericks is for photoshop.

You're asking for a lot in one post. It would be better to break your requests down a bit.
For example, to deal with mouse clicks, you can use the Automator Action Run Shell Script with this python script:
import sys
import time
from Quartz.CoreGraphics import *
def mouseEvent(type, posx, posy):
        theEvent = CGEventCreateMouseEvent(None, type, (posx,posy), kCGMouseButtonLeft)
        CGEventPost(kCGHIDEventTap, theEvent)
def mousemove(posx,posy):
        mouseEvent(kCGEventMouseMoved, posx,posy);
def mouseclick(posx,posy):
        mouseEvent(kCGEventLeftMouseDown, posx,posy);
        mouseEvent(kCGEventLeftMouseUp, posx,posy);
ourEvent = CGEventCreate(None);
# Save current mouse position
currentpos=CGEventGetLocation(ourEvent);
# Click the "Apple"
mouseclick(25, 5);
# 1 second delay
time.sleep(1);
# Restore mouse position
mousemove(int(currentpos.x),int(currentpos.y))
It will look like this in Automator:
To drag something (i.e. a window, a file icon) from position 40,60 to 60,300:
import time
from Quartz.CoreGraphics import *
def mouseEvent(type, posx, posy):
           theEvent = CGEventCreateMouseEvent(None, type, (posx,posy), kCGMouseButtonLeft)
           CGEventPost(kCGHIDEventTap, theEvent)
def mousemove(posx,posy):
           mouseEvent(kCGEventMouseMoved, posx,posy);
def mouseclickdn(posx,posy):
           mouseEvent(kCGEventLeftMouseDown, posx,posy);
def mouseclickup(posx,posy):
           mouseEvent(kCGEventLeftMouseUp, posx,posy);
def mousedrag(posx,posy):
           mouseEvent(kCGEventLeftMouseDragged, posx,posy);
ourEvent = CGEventCreate(None);
# Save current mouse position
currentpos=CGEventGetLocation(ourEvent);
# move mouse to upper left of screen
mouseclickdn(40, 60);
# drag icon to new location
mousedrag(60, 300);
# release mouse
mouseclickup(60, 300);
# necessary delay
time.sleep(1);
# return mouse to start positon
mouseclickdn(int(currentpos.x),int(currentpos.y));
For keystokes in AppleScript (which can be added to Automator with the Run Applescript Action) see: http://dougscripts.com/itunes/itinfo/keycodes.php

Looping Background Movie Clip

Hi i am having trouble with having a looping background movie
clip on the bottom layer of my flash project. I have it on the
bottom layer in the first frame, above it i have some menus fading
in and it seems as though once it gets to this scene, it just plays
the movie clip over and over and never goes to the 2nd frame of my
scene. Is there anyway to have a looping background movie clip
inside of flash 8?
Thank you in advance,
Tyler

You can use a variable to keep count of how many times you loop, and until it exceeds a particulr value (2 or 3) you execute a setTimeout() call that waits for however long you want to delay and then tells the movieclip to gotoAndPlay(1).
So in the first frame you would establish the counting variable...
var count;
if(count == undefined){ // only set it to 0 once
count = 0;
and in the last frame you would do your incrementing and control....
stop();
count += 1;
if(count < 3){
setTimeout(waitABit, 2000); // call function in 2 secs
function waitABit(){
gotoAndPlay(1);

How do I loop a QuickTime sequence 7 times?

How do I loop a QuickTime sequence 7 times? Am using QT Pro. Thanks

A simple, inelegant approach: In QT Pro, copy the movie and paste it six times to extend the track. Resave.
Another approach (if you have Snow Leopard or above): Automator's Play Movies action has a looping option, though it uses QT 10 rather than QT 7 for playback and the playback isn't as seamless as the first method.

How does one loop playback of small selections within the timeline?

How does one loop a selection of footage from within the timeline? I'm trying to edit students' tapping hands and pencils on desks into small timed chunks that will play back as seamless loops and I need to be able to slowly shorten or elongate sections of footage as it plays and repeates until the loop matches the timing of the song we are making. I'm using PE8 and can't seen to find an easy way to do this. Surely there is one! Is there?

I appreciate the help everbody, but It looks like I didn't state my question effectively. Let me try again.
It will be easier if I explain what it is I am used to. This is what I need to know how to do in PE8, because the school in which I teach AV has chosen PE8 for my classes and won't let me install anything else.
In Sony Vegas - all versions, you can click and drag to quickly make a selection of video and audio. You can do this while video is rolling and you can then choose to have your A&V loop within this selection. I have seen replies on this forum where this feature within Vegas was treated as if it were a dumb thing. It's not dumb once you realize what it can be used to do for you. While continuing to loop within your slelection, you can move this selection throughout your timeline, rough tuning where you want your loop to be. If your loop needs to be exactly 66 frames, for instance, you could first set this selection at 66 frames and then move it up and down the timlene until you find the best place to cut. Or, in the case of trying to find where some sound within your selection makes a seamless loop, you can increase or decrease the size of your selection on the fly as the selection continues to repeat.
How do you do that in PE8? If it can't do it, can the full version of Premiere?
Thanks again for the help.

How can i let a move clip complete his motion tween movement after dragging and dropping it

hi how can i let a move clip complete his motion tween movement after dragging and dropping it
i am using this code and there is a motion tween applies to the movie clip r_mc
r_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,fun); r_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,fun2); function fun(event:MouseEvent):void { stop(); r_mc.startDrag();
function fun2(event:MouseEvent):void {
play(); r_mc.stopDrag();

i have a simple .fla file wich contains MC that has
a motion tween(its moving from the left to the right of the stage)
this motion tween covers the whole time line ( there is only 50 frames in the time line)
i mean in the frame 1 the MC appears in the left of the stage
and in the frame 50 the MC appears in the right of the stage and there is a motion tween between them
every thing till now working well
i want to make that MC dragabble
so when i drag the MC i will use stop()
and when i drop it i will use play()
but the problem is that the mc doesnt move and complete
his motion tween movement when i drop it
for example the MC will be in the middle of the stage in frame 25
in this frame (25) i am draging the MC ,stoping the timeline,dropping the MC and resum playing the timeline again
but the MC freezes in the middle of the stage and doesnt go to the right of the stageo until the flash loops and start from the frame 1 again
here is the example wich i am worikng on

thank u very much and sorry for my bad English

Looping a .mov

How do you make a .mov automatically loop from FCP? I know with flash there is an option to do this, is there something similar in FCP?
Thanks.

In FCP, with your timeline selected, I believe it's either control-L or Shift-L to make it loop its playback...

Multi-record block (how do I loop through the block)

I created a two canvas form. On the first canvas, the user enters data and selects 1 - 30
reports that they want to run. When they click on <NEXT> button, I create a multi-record
control block and display each record on the second screen using
go_block;
clear_block;
move data;
create_record;
The user then selects on the second canvas which reports to run now and which to run later via
a LOV. When they press the <RUN> button, I want to start at the first record and either run the
report or schedule it. Then I want to move onto the second and the third until all selected reports
have been handled. I know I should use a loop but can't seem to make it work.
So my question is, How do I loop through the records in a multi-record control block, pass the information
for that one record to a parameter form and then execute the request? Each control block record contains
10 parameter fields.
Thanks.
Bob

go_record(1);
<< do your processing >> -- This is executed only for the first record.
if :system.last_record = 'TRUE' then -- If the 1st record is also the last record.
RETURN;
end if;
LOOP
next_record;
<< do your processing >>
if :system.last_record = 'TRUE' then
EXIT;
end if;
END LOOP;
