How do I open a QuickTime movie in the Player
How do I create a link in Dreamweaver8 which will open a QuickTime movie in the QuickTime Player and not in another browser window of Safari?
Looking at the source of this page, the markup you posted was:
<pre><a href="Excerpts-The Cult.mov" target="QUICKTIMEPLAYER">Video<br></pre>
1. An HREF tag needs to be closed with an </a> immediately after the word you're hyperlinking (in this case, "Video").
2. Many web servers are cAsE sEnSiTiVe. Best to use all lower case chars in your filename, and avoid space chars altogether (spaces are interpreted as a '%20' character code, that can muck things up).
3. Instead of an HREF tag, you need to use an EMBED tag to invoke the QT Plugin, as demonstrated on the page I linked to above. The HREF tag doesn't understand TARGET="QUICKTIMEPLAYER", only the QT Plugin understands that attribute.
4. For cross-platform compatibility (specifically with Internet Explorer Win 5.5SP2 & above), you also need to use an OBJECT tag to embed your mov. That will be ignored by browsers that use Netscape-style plugins (they use EMBED), but still read by browsers that use ActiveX controls (i.e: Internet Explorer Win).
You might find it useful to work through the basic embedding QT tutorial, also the ADC HTML Scripting Guide for QT.
If all that makes your head spin, grab a copy of PAGEot and get it to generate the QT markup for you.

Viewing embeded quicktime movies in the player?
Is it possible to view a movie that's embeded on a webpage in the Quicktime Player instead, therefore allowing the viewer to watch the movie at a different size?
Its the browser, not the web-page or file that decides how to handle files of any particular type. Safari does not allow the user to configure it to a great extent (and insists on using the QuickTime Plug-in even if it isn't installed...) but other browsers do.
If you use Firefox ( http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/ ) the first time you go directly to the url of any mov file, ( paste in the URL of this mov file for instance: http://images.apple.com/macbookpro/gallery/images/macbook48001122006.mov ) and a window will appear. ( see http://wings.buffalo.edu/computing/documentation/mac/Sorted%20Images/norton10/no rton10_01.jpg )
If you then choose to "Save to Disk" and "Do this automatically for files like this one from now on" a Download action is created in Firefox's preferences.
To view or change the Download action:
Menu bar > Firefox > Preferences > Downloads > View & Edit Actions
Select the "MOV" action.
Click "Change Action"
Select whatever you wish - save to disk, open with a plug-in (QuickTime Plug-in for instance), open with the default application or pick any application with which to open this type of file.
Click "Ok" -
How do I get Javascript or HTML to open a QuickTime movie as a slideshow?
I have turned a 320x240 pixel photo sequence into a QuickTime movie using the "File > Open Image Sequence ..." option. However, that required I specify an equal amount of time to display each photo.
Using the following JavaScript, I can, from within a webpage, play that QuickTime movie as a movie in another window by simply clicking on the link to it in the webpage:
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!-- hide this script from old browsers
// This script opens a new browser window and writes
// HTML to play an video with a title and caption
function show_movie( pFileName, pTitle, pCaption, pEnd) {
// specify window parameters
movieWin = window.open( "", "", "width=370,height=400,status,scrollbars,resizable");
// wrote content to window
movieWin.document.write('<html><head><title>' + pTitle + '</title></head>');
movieWin.document.write('<BODY BGCOLOR=#000000 TEXT=#FFFFCC LINK=#33CCFF VLINK=#FF6666>');
movieWin.document.write('<center>');
movieWin.document.write('<font size="+1" face="arial,helvetica"><b>' + pCaption + '</b></font><br>');
movieWin.document.write('<object width="320" height="256">');
movieWin.document.write('<embed src="' + pFileName + '" width="320" height="256" autostart="true" pluginspage="http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/"></embed></object><p>');
movieWin.document.write('<font face="arial,helvetica">');
movieWin.document.write('' + pEnd + '<br>');
movieWin.document.write('<p></font></body></html>');
movieWin.document.write('<form>');
movieWin.document.write('<input type=button value="Close Window" onClick="javascript:window.close();" name="button">');
movieWin.document.write('</form>');
movieWin.document.close();
// If we are on NetScape, we can bring the window to the front
if (navigator.appName.substring(0,8) == "Netscape") movieWin.focus();
// done hiding from old browsers -->
</SCRIPT>
But some photos need to be displayed for a longer time than others.
QuickTime 7.1.2 "View > Present Movie > Slideshow > Play" will play the movie as a slideshow -- the person looking at it has full control over how much time a photo is displayed before going to the next one.
My JavaScript allows the user to pause the movie and continue it at will, but if I can modify it to play the movie directly as a slideshow like QuickTime 7.1.2, please let me know how.
Thank you.

I'm trying to open a Quicktime movie created in FCPro so I can edit it in FCE. It's an XDCam EX 720p10 codec. Should I be able to open this?
Thanks!From FCP or Compressor you can convert it to 720p30 (I don't know 720p10 is) using the Apple Intermediate Codec. That will be editable in FCE.

How do I import a quicktime movie?
Hi,
I think this is a super simple question, How do I import a
quicktime movie onto my page? I presume you go to
insert>media>? not to sure what comes next though? Is it
shockwave,applet,active x or plugin?
Thanks,
Beth HThere's not a default insert behavior for this built into
Dreamweaver, but a
quick search on the Exchange show that there is an extension
for this,
although I've not used it. Do a search for "quicktime" here:
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/exchange/index.cfm?view=sn120#loc=en_us&view=sn105&viewName=E xchange%20Search
Make sure you set the program dropdown to Dreamweaver to
minimize the number
of hits. Should be the second one on the list: "Insert a
QuickTime Movie,
V1.0.1".
Hope this works for you. There is some additional information
about the
extension on the detail page that you might want to look at
to ensure
everything works properly.
Best regards,
Chris

Anyone know how to get subtitles into Quicktime movies?
With Quicktime now supporting subtitles. Does anyone know how import subtitles into Quicktime movies?
After following the instructions from Apple's support pages for timed text, I tried pasting in timed text. This displays text below the video in an ugly black bar, but isn't recognised as subtitles by Quicktime. Ideally, I'd like to convert srt files into a compliant format, but without knowing the correct format, it's a little difficult.There haven't been any really clear instructions on how to get subtitles into QuickTime movies yet. Apple has posted a QuickTime component that will convert an SCC file into QuickTime and you'll find that here.
http://developer.apple.com/samplecode/ClosedCaptionImporter/index.html
Also, a discussions user has posted instructions on how to CC a QuickTime movie in this thread.

I can not open a video movie clip, the system ask for a codec, how can a set up automatlicly?
The problem was resolved a small manipulation - on stage Basic Configuration,
point 3 "Configure CA Introscope"
I forgot to add to the list of CA Introscope Enterprise Managers link to my manager.
Thus it is necessary to take into account that the path should be correct (usually for linux - /usr/sap/ccms/apmintroscope) and the directory should be applied appropriate privileges.
Then in paragraph "Byte Code Adapter Installation" - there are all the necessary data, and it starts to work correctly -

Creating a QuickTime movie with the new Canon T5i camera in iMovie 9.0.9.
Help needed creating a QuickTime movie with the new Canon T5i camera in iMovie 9.0.9. The project is done and looks good...I need help understanding what settings need to be set so I can make a QuickTime movie in the highest quality that would fit the ratio of 16.9 to be sent out to my YouTube page. I played around with some of the settings and have not come with the right setting for the video. I want the highest quality with the lowest amount of megabytes…thanks
I would suggest using SHARE/EXPORT MOVIE and choose 1920x1080 (if your source material supports this).
That should work well in YouTube.
If you want to go further with custom QuickTime settings, here are some that should work, but in my experience, it will be no better than using SHARE/EXPORT MOVIE.
follow the instructions below to create a .mov video that will work on YouTube:
In iMovie, select Share > Export Using QuickTime
Next, you may want to check your Options to verify that the following settings are correct:Video settings
Compression Type: H.264
Frame Rate: 30 is preferred. 23.98, 24, 25, 29.97 are also acceptable.
Data Rate: Automatic
Key Frames: Automatic
Frame Reordering: Unchecked
Audio/Sound settings
Format: AAC
Click Show advanced settings and choose Constant Bit Rate as encoding strategy
Other settings
Size: Choose the original size of the video

Use Microsoft Excel or a compatible app.
I just get "Import Error".
In what app? Or are we playing Twenty Questions?
Excel 2008 should be able to open it, but not play any of the macros. Excel 2011 should be able to open it and play the macros -- unless they contain Win-specific code. OpenOffice/NeoOffice/LibreOffice's Calc should also be able to open it, but the extent to which it will be able to play the macros also depends on the code. -

How to maintain open change request control for the transaction MM02 & CS02
hi all...
can any one please let me know that, is there any BADI or Enhancement spot
where i can code for my desired functionality...
how to maintain open change request control for the transaction MM02 and CS02.
Desired Functionality:
The user wants to maintain a material, bill of material or a document.
On the initial screen of the respective transaction (MM02, CS02)
user enters a change request number.
The system checks whether the object record that the user wants to maintain
is already assigned to other change request numbers.
If this is the case, the system displays a warning, stating that there are
other open change requests for this master data record.
In addition, the system lists the relevant change request numbers.
The user can continue the maintenance or leave the transaction and first check
the mentioned change requests.hi satish thanks for reverting back
but sorry yaar given enhancement is not triggering...
but my requirement is:
- after executing the transaction MM02 & CS02.
- user inputs the data for Material Number and then he enters the Change Number.
- if the given Change Number is not maintained with the Material (i dont no
where/how this two fields are maintained internally), then it has to raise a
warning and it should list the existing Change Numbers for that perticular
Material.
