How to make movie begin playing automatically.

Keynote 8
I want a QT movie to begin playing without the need to click.  I have have unchecked the click.  The slide with the movie on it appears but it does not begin playing.
Thanks.
This is for a looped presentation that you may watch in a waiting room... some static slides and some with very brief video.

I'm having the same problem as ggr - Eric your response is pretty lame. Refering someone to a  "how to" video. Do you get paid for this? It is a real problem! I have a .mov in my keynote that does not play. I have tried other videos - they too do not play. It's a H.264. After restarting my computer. The video played a couple of times. But then it stopped working again. BTW it's a relatively new iMac with OS 10.6.8.

  • How can I make music (mp3) play automatically in one Scene (NO buttons)?

    How can I make an mp3 play automatically in one Scene (NO buttons)? I have been searching the net for answers for over 10 hours with no answer... My movie will not be for the web, it needs to be portable (CD or flash drive)...
    PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!
    thank you!

    You just need to look in Help for the Sound class and possibly SoundChannel... if you have an MP3 in your library - right click it, and go to properties. Set the sound to export for ActionScript - and give it a class name - mySound will work. Then you can make it play with something as simple as:
    var a:SoundChannel = new mySound().play();

    Use the Settings app.

    Is Auto Lock set to Never? Change it to less time.

  • How do I make a project play automatically

    I have recorded 4 presentations, all with a power point presentation first slide. When doing one of them I found somewhere a setting so that it starts playing automatically, the other 3 need the user to either click on the start button on the toolbar or use the enter key. I have searched and searched to find how I managed to get the one starting automatically but can not now find it - any help from anyone would be much appreciated as I would like them all to start playing automatically.
    Thanks

    Hi again
    Well, it's because you didn't advise up front what version of Captivate you are using. As you seemed to be a new user, it would appear I mistakenly assumed you were using version 4.
    You might want to review the link below:
    Click here to read
    As for auto starting, if you are using Captivate 3 or older, it should already be playing automagickally. This would infer you have a Button, Click Box or Text Entry Box object on the first slide. Any of those objects will typically pause the playback until they are dealt with.
    Cheers... Rick

  • How to make an auto play, auto loop DVD

    I can't find any option or help file on how to make a DVD's contents loop. I don't need any menus just the movie to play and loop. Can anyone help me out here? Cheers

    You are most welcome, but Jeff did the "heavy lifting," like Ann Bens did in the PrPro forum.
    The important thing is that you get what you need.
    I'd ditch the Memorex discs, and settle on Verbatim, or Taiyo Yudens. I once used Memorex tape (probably back in your dad's, or grand-dad's day), and it was good. However, for blank DVD media, they adopted a poor business plan - buy the very cheapest source media, and emboss it with their logo. In a spindle of 100, you might find 3 - 4 different mfgr's media. TDK was once good, but went with the Memorex business plan.
    There are several media info utilities, and even the free ImgBurn can tell you, but it is always interesting to put in a Memorex disc, and see who actually made it, plus the lot number. Some discs might be good, but then some others can be horrible.
    Good luck,

  • How to make movie in iDVD without themes.  iDVD app quitting during burning

    I am trying to make movie without themes and still having problems. I have tried using the map view in themes, dragging movie into the first box on left, looping it - but am seeing a yellow error sign in the theme box. Don't know why this is. Have tried to burn movie anyway but iDVD app quits halfway thru. Today I tried just simply going to iDVD >file>onestep DVD from movie>select movie and inserting disc. This seems to be the simple solution I have been looking for to burn a movie without themes but iDVD still quit on me halfway thru burning just now. Is this a space problem? Disc problem? help...

    OK F Shippey - Using this computer for anything other than email is pretty new to me. I have just recently began using imovie and idvd. I have burned one idvd and working on a second. While making the movie I was constantly having to delete old footage to make room for space. In other words I don't know much about space and usage. I know that in my new imovie project it says that i have 7.53 Gb available. I know i have a Lacie external with one DVD on it. So what do i need to know about space on a hard drive while using imovie? How do you monitor how much hard drive space you have while working on projects like this? Do I find this info in About This Mac? Sorry for so many dumb questions. Clearly I don't know what I am doing. Thanks for your reply.

  • How to make movies open in the center of my screen.

    Does anyone know how to make Quicktime open up videos in the center of a screen? When I double click any movie file it pops open in the uppermost far left corner, and I have to drag it down into a more comfortable area. It's annoying with a large monitor.
    Thanks

    The script writing lobe of my brain was damaged by years of drug abuse, years ago. Try as I might, I can't seem to get it right.
    The most common error I get is:
    Expected end of line, etc. but found “end tell”.
    I tried modeling one of any number of existing scripts but still no dice.
    I tried this:
    tell application "QuickTime Player"
    activate
    set the bounds of window 1 to {235, 58, 944, 590}
    end tell
    And got this error message: QuickTime Player got an error: NSReceiverEvaluationScriptError: 4
    I know this is simple but, like I said...

  • How To Add a Movie that plays automatically?

    I used iMovie to create an animated logo - it's just some text that fades in with my name on it. I want to be able to add this short "movie" to my iWeb page so that when someone goes to my web site, my logo/name fades in automatically on the home page. However, when I try adding the movie, iWeb puts play controls so that someone has to press play in order to watch the logo fade in.
    Is there a way that I can have my movie of my logo/name automatically play when someone opens my web page?

    Select the movie in iWeb and go to the Inspector/Quicktime pane. There you can set it to autoplay, loop and/or hide the controller.

  • Help please, how to make movie play in nano

    i have a nano, i thought there should be a transfer software built-in,but no.
    anyone can give me this software pls?

    Hey there,
    First, make sure you have your iPod set up to sync videos. To do this, plug your iPod in and head over to the "Videos" tab and make sure they are set to "Sync" and hit "Apply" when you have selected your method for syncing videos. More on syncing videos can be found in the Apple document below.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1333
    Also, make sure the video is in the standard iPod format. Even though it was bought from the iTunes store, it may not be in the correct iPod format. To change this, right->click (or control->click on a mac) on the movie in your iTunes library and choose "Create iPod or iPhone version." The conversion may take anywhere from a few minutes to quite some time depending on the length of the movie.
    Once it is done, try resyncing it to your iPod. Hope this helps.
