How to create a download link for video file?

Hello guys,
I know this is not a question directly related to OS X, but I just can't find a solution. So I was hoping that some of you might know the answer, or could recommend further reading.
I have .mov video files (video footage) on the server. I would like to make these files accessible for download, via link.
So I am wondering .... how can I create a link, which would allow people to download .mov video files from the server?
Thanks for any advice or tip.

The question is, where is the server?
Is it on its own static IP? If it is not, it likely is on a DHCP configuration.
For those with DHCP, I recommend http://www.dyndns.com as a workaround, otherwise the links given will have to change as often as every hour!
Is it on a router, or does it have a firewall turned on in its sharing preferneces? Routers and firewalls block direct access from the outside. You need to setup the web sharing access on your router or firewall before someone can access it via the web.
Is the .mov file saved via Quicktime? You would also need to provide link on your page to http://www.apple.com/quicktime so that it may be downloaded by those who don't have it. If it is another format, you'll need a link to whatever format it is.
HTML for putting the video right on the page is usually controled by the EMBED function. That's covered here:
http://www.htmlcodetutorial.com/embeddedobjects/_EMBED.html
Otherwise a simple hyperlink to the file will do, once you have an open web sharing port on a static IP or dyndns controled domain.

How do I add a link for a file that can be downloaded

I'm sure that there's a very simple answer to this, and I
can't believe that I don't know it.
How can I add a link to a file that will then be dowloaded by
the user?
Thanks

Zip the file. Link to it. Upload it.

How to create an URL link for product cancellation using an FM

Hi,
I have tried creating an external attachment i.e URL link for a workorder by triggering a custom FM by exporting business object type , order id ,realtion type , title and link with return parameter as a message .
But i'm not being able to create URL link for workorder using the custom FM.
Kindly please suggest some solutions regarding how the URL link can be created using an FM instead of manual creation.

given that there can be a variety of reasons for something to crash, you can sometimes initialize a buffer by wiring a non-null data structure to the left terminal of the call library function node. for example, if the output is to be a string no more than 100 characters long, create a string that long of nulls, blanks or anything and attach that to the left terminal for that output. no guarantees, but i have seen that work.

Crystal report ( how to create a hyper link for the crystal report file)

hello all,
how to create a hyperlink for my report file....nd i want it open in excel format.

Hello Uher,
sorry for the insufficient details,
actually we are calling some actuate reports from actuate server, and the URL looks like this
"https://iconsole.xxx.com/iconsole/viewer/viewreport.jsp?
outputFileType=XLSX&fromwhere=viewDocument&outputName=
/filelocation/ReportOutputs/Reportname.xlsx&serverurl
=http://xx.xxx.com:8010&volume=xxx&userid=xxx&password=xxx"
which would generate an excel output,
my question is, can we have some url in which we would specify the output format, as far my research i found URL reporting
some thing like this
"http://" + servername +
":8080/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?outputfiletype=xlsx/
filelocation/userlogondetails
but my client needs an excel output, with out going through any web page or viewer controls and generating buttons.
Thank you

How to create a passsword protection for EXCEL file

Hi,
I have created EXCEL, CSV and DBF file generation through Oracle PL/SQL. Now my client expecting to create a password protection. Can anyone tell me how to create a passsword protected file?
Cheers,

How to protect an EXCEL file is not an Oracle issue and I don't think you can do this through PL/SQL. It's part of MS Office maintenance itself and it depends on the version:

Download link for a file

Hi,
I have created a list within SP2010, this list has few details required as part of the form, but wish to make a template excel sheet available for them to download and upload in their list item.
I cannot find a way to do this, other than uploading it in a docstore, and i feel this would cause problems as people would start checking it out and editing it rather than saving their own copy.
Any help please?
Thanks :)

Hi,
Firstly upload document in document library then use the code
<a href="<%= SPContext.Current.Site.Url %>/Test/Shared%20Documents/Template.xls">Click here to download Template</a>
Thanks,

How to create link for pdf file in discoverer worksheet

Hi All,
I would like to create a link for pdf file into discoverer report (worksheet).
So that i can open linked pdf file using worksheet link.
Can any one tell me about this?
Thanks
Ravi

Hi,
I think the best way to do this is to use a database directory so that you can access your pdf file as a bfile. Then create a mod_plsql procedure that sets the mime type and downloads the pdf file. You then create a calculation in the EUL then returns the URL to your mod_plsql procedure. You can then include this calculation as a hyperlink in your worksheet.
It is not as difficult as it sounds. Please let me know if you need anymore details.

How do I create a downloadable link from an Interactive PDF file created out of InDesign CS6?

Hello,
I created an Interactive PDF file out of InDesign and would like to make the large file a downloadable link and share it with the user in an email. I do not want to use DropBox or GoogleDrive.
The company I contract for has their own site - do I insert the file into the site or can I create a separate link for it?
I will be recreating these presentation PDF's constantly, so I would like to know if there is a simple way to create this link for files in the size of 7-12MB.
Any ideas on downloadable links? I do have flash - but rarely use, perhaps load the file out of flash?
Thank you so much for your help,
Megan

Hi Willie,
Thanks for your help. Most likely contact the company who maintains the
site then to share the file with them I'm assuming?

How do I share a link to a file and have the other person download the file without having to add them explicitly as a member, like Dropbox does?

With Dropbox, I right click on a file within my designated Dropbox folder and choose share Dropbox link. This copies a unique URL that I can send to anyone to then download that file and that file only. I do not have to add people to my access list to allow the download.
How do I do this with Oracle Documents? I have one off large files that I prefer not to send via email, however, I do not want to add everybody in the company as a member to my access list.

There is an option called Public Links which allows you to do this. Select your item and click Share. This throws a pop-up dialog. On the left side of the dialog you may have 3 options - Members, Member Links, Public Links. If the Public Links option is not there, then your service administrator has disallowed them from use. The Public Links option is a controversial one in the enterprise space. DropBox's original offering had no qualms with offering public links because the content was guaranteed to be the property of the dropbox user. However, at enterprise level, the content belongs to the owning enterprise, so service administrators may elect not to allow this feature. This is down to your organisation.
If you see the Public Links option, click on it and the right side of the popup dialog will change. You can specify:
a name for each link you create (so you can keep track of which link is which),
Link Permissions, only the following are available for obvious reasons - Viewer, Downloader, Contributor
Link Expiration Date - a date after which the link will not work
Access Code - a pass code which you can divulge to expected recipients by alternative means of your own choosing. This access code guarantees a measure of security on a link which could otherwise be used by anybody
You can create several public links for the same item, and each of those can have the above settings, so you could have one link for downloaders and a separate link for contributors, for example. Each link can then be sent, either by copy/paste or through the email button to the right of the link. You can also modify the link using the pen icon, so you can unexpire it or reset its expiry date. You can also delete a link using the trash button next to it.
I hope this explains the public link feature.
Regards,
Frank.

Problem providing download link for BLOB data in apex report

Hi,
I am trying to create a report on a table with BLOB data so that the report displays a "download" link for the BLOB data. I am trying to give users the ability to download files from a website.
I have been following the instructions in OBE "Defining and Viewing BLOB Data in Oracle Application Express 3.1".
In the report, for the BLOB column, I have specified values for the following fields in Report Attributes->Column Formatting->Number/Date Format->BLOB Download Format Mask:
BLOB Table
BLOB Column
Primary Key Column 1
MIME Type Column
Filename Column
BLOB Last Updated Column
However, when I run the report, I get the following error, even thought there is data loaded into the table:
report error:
ORA-01403: no data found
When I remove the BLOB Download Format Mask information for the BLOB column, then the data displays in the report, but without the "download" link for the BLOB data (which is expected):
E.g.
Title Author Created BLOB_CONTENT
Siebel & RAC Best Practices     Erik.Peterson     17-SEP-08     [datatype]
Siebel Grid Case Studies     Mark.MacDonald     17-SEP-08     [datatype]
Siebel CRM Applications protected by Oracle Clusterware     Kelly.Tan     17-SEP-08 [datatype]
Oracle Grid: The Optimal Platform for Siebel Solutions Mark.MacDonald 17-SEP-08     [datatype]
Any ideas why I'm seeing the ORA_01403 when I specify the BLOB Download Format Mask?
Edited by: user716599 on Sep 18, 2008 12:31 AM

Good morning,
Here is how I have solved this problem.
1. The select statement in the sql for the report should not include the BLOB column. I decided to select only 2 columns, the column that has the key and the column with the filename.
2. On the first column ( the primary key ) I put in the format statement that was simply DOWNLOAD:TABLENAME:BLOB_COLUMN:PRIMARY_KEY
This works. I believe that the Oracle error I was getting was because I was trying to apply this format statement to the actual BLOB column.
So, it appears that you can use any of the columns in the report to hold the DOWNLOAD format statement since in the format statement, you are defining the BLOB table, BLOB column and the primary key into that column.
Hope this helps,
Don.

Download link for blob field on page

I have a form based on table with a blob column:
TEMPLATE blob
The 'Display as' on the item is set to 'File Browse...'
The Source Type is set to 'Database Column' and Source value or Expression is set to 'TEMPLATE'
I want the 'Download' link to appear next to the 'Browse' button, so I tried to change the Source value to
'TEMPLATE::::', but it gives me this when I try to save:
1 error has occurred
""."TEMPLATE" not found.
How canI get the 'Download' link to appear?

bobmagan,
Thanks for importing your app. Sorry for the late reply. Here's what I've found:
For some reason this download link seems to be tied to the TABLE NAME specified in an Automatic Row Processing process. I created an ARP to process the row instead of using the custom procedure that you wrote to process the record. I specified all the normal stuff in the ARP (i.e., TABLE_NAME, PRIMARY_KEY). After the process was created, I modified the TEMPLATE item source to TEMPLATE:::: w/o error and the download link appeared fine.
To further test, I then went back the ARP and changed the table name to lower case, edited the TEMPLATE item again, and got the following error:
*"report_layout"."TEMPLATE" not found.*
When you use DATABASE COLUMN as the source type for the item, it must be using the table_name in the ARP to identify the column being referenced.
This may a good question for the APEX developers. They could probably shed more light on this.
All in all, the workaround I found is to create the ARP and set it's condition to NEVER so that it never runs. You can still use your custom process to insert/update/delete the record. Then you can edit the item, add the TEMPLATE::::, and get the download link to appear. I left the solution up and running in your app for you to see.
Sorry for all the confusion, but I hope this helps you out.
Let me know what you think...
