Is it possible to embed a media player and media in a ADE ePub

Playing around with ePub ebooks particularly embedding audio/video in ePubs.
I've seen a number of examples that show embedding/playing a swf file in an epub and it plays ok in ADE.
However, I'd like to be able to embed a media player e.g. StrobeMediaPlayback.swf or JW Player and a media file and have the player play back the embedded media file.
When I try this the player shows up but it will not play the file.
I've included references to the swf and media files in the ePub manifest.
Here is an example object tag.  This works fine if I load the html page in a browser like FireFox.
<object width="470" height="320" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="player.swf">
<param name="movie" value="player.swf"></param>
<param name="flashvars" value="file=video.flv"></param>
</object>

No, it is not. Worse, many people will view this in any old PDF viewer, most of which won't have overprint preview at all.
You need to send very clear instructions about this, with specific screen shots - or better, avoid tools and constructions that require it. Probably some wording about "need to view with suitable professional tools" will make the message more palatable.

  • Is it possible to embed a Windows QT player on CD?

    Is it possible to embed a Windows QT player on CD so the application doesn't have to be loaded on the host machine, but accessed from the CD. I have QTVR movies that must play on XP machines, but receipients are not permitted to permanently load "unapproved" software. I recall long ago that a Mac QT player was standalone and could be included in this manner but am unfamiliar with Windows requirements. Can anyone help please?
    G5 Dual 1.8   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

    Sorry but no. Just as with Windows Media Player, QuickTime has files that must be installed as part of the operating system. The same would apply to a Mac, by the way.

  • Embed a media player in netbeans IDE

    Hi guys!
    I'm pretty new to development in Java, right now I'm using netbeans as the IDE to development a P2P file sharing program for my school project. One of the module is to embed a media player that can playback the media files shared by the program. My group choosed to use VLC. The targeted machine to run is on a Windows XP. If the program can compile and run on Linux, that would be a plus.
    Now, having searched the web on how to embed a player, I am utterly confused and lost.. Can anyone suggest some tutorials on how to embed a media player, or even an alternate player that's easily implementable in netbeans?
    JJ

    When you click on the play video buttons, the rest of the page turns cloudy and the media player pops out. 
    Modal window, Highslide, Lightbox, Floatbox, Litebox, Colorbox...  There are about a hundred different versions of the same thing.
    Also what movies files can I play?? 
    Andy,
    That depends on your target audience.  If you need to support laptops/desktops and smartphones -- Droid, Berries, iPhone, iPads, etc... may may need to offer visitors more than one flavor to choose from.

  • Want to download information but tries to do it in media player and says not possible, want to change setting but how???

    When I try to read an internet document in PDF or another format it tries to read it in Media Player and then says it's not possible. This means I cannot access information I need. I looked at every Menu I can, including Help and cannot change this setting. Please help me, I've obviously inadvertently chosen this option and now can't unchoose it. Please help me, it's very frustrating!!

    Thank you. Actually I stumbled across that solution myself last night, really not having a clue but browsing through all the drop down menus and did what you said. The only option that seems to work is if I use Internet Explorer. Haven't downloaded any documents yet, but hopefully it will work next time.

  • Sample to embed Adobe Media Player into html

    Hello everyone,
    I have searched for quite some time but can not find a simple sample to tell how to write a simple html page which could embed an Adobe Media Player and play a local music?
    Any samples?
    thanks in advance,
    George

    Just an idea...Maybe it would be better to add music through your editing html software - you can add music within background tab. Heres the code...place in html on page.
    change musicfile.wav to the name of your file.

    If it's a newer version you should have a Windows Media Object in the Object Palette that you can drag and drop onto your page, then link to the .wmv file as though it were a regular image in the inspector.
    Or was there something special you wanted to do?

  • Is it possible to embed some JavaScript code WITHIN a QT movie?

    Hi,
    This may be a job for QuickTimeKirk, as I've seen (s)he seems quite knowledgeable about QuickTime secrets...
    I'm using a blog service which does not allow the calling of external JavaScript files. Furthermore, testing STAMPot from my excellent fellow compatriot *Francis Gorge* (http://www.qtbridge.com/stampot/stampot.html) did not help me enough because the posts on my blog are contained within tables over which I have little control. In particular, I cannot write a full HTML page description with the <head> and <body> tags, and all the references needed to link to the .js file (and others) created by STAMPot.
    So, I'm wondering if it is possible to embed the appropriate code directly within a QuickTime movie, e.g. under the form of a additional HREF track.
    What I'm trying to achieve, in the end, is to have a poster frame for my movie, and have the movie play within that same poster frame space, but WITHOUT the movie controller +(not the poster frame controller, which I know how to hide)+, and then the movie looping back to the poster frame.
    Maybe I missed something, but in the case I understood correctly what I read on the QT Dev web site, when one passes the controller="false" parameter to the +<embed src="<a class="jive-link-external-small" href="http://...&gt;">http://...> tag, the parameter only applies to the FIRST movie, which is, in fact, the poster frame. Even if the target movie was saved with the controller disabled, this is only acknowledged by QuickTime Player, NOT by the QuickTime plugin.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks in advance,
    batspray

    1- You can add a frame to the end of the movie, make it an href track that points back to the poster movie. Yes. Illustrated details, here: [http://developer.apple.com/documentation/QuickTime/QT4WebPage/samplechap/speci al-24.html]
    2.- As to the larger question of JavaScript within the QT movie, No. "Starting with QuickTime 7.1.5, you can no longer issue javascript: URLs or call JavaScript functions from within a QuickTime movie. This feature was removed from QuickTime for security reasons." See this official notice: [http://developer.apple.com/documentation/quicktime/Conceptual/QTScriptingJavaScript/bQTScripting_JavaScri_Document/chapter_1000_section1.html].

  • Is it possible to Embed an MP4 video into a FlashCC file?

    We're looking at hopefully getting some videos into our final swf by embedding it.  We know we can use FLV's etc, but we would like to use the original MP4's without the loss of quality. Is it possible to Embed mp4's using code or something and adding it to a stage? I read everywhere that it is not possible unless converted etc...
    If anyone does have any comments, links or example code that may help, it would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Thanks for the answers here but this is what i've found online also. The problem is that the mp4 isn't embedded into the swf and has to be 'linked' to a source file.
    The only thing I can find to do is to convert to flv and then embed... But even Media Encoder doesn't support flv anymore...

  • Is it possible to embed Youtube videos in to InDesign?

    I know that this question has been asked before, but a answer on it i couldn't find.

    Thanks,

    Here's an interactive PDF with a Flash player I built awhile back embedded
    http://www.zenodesign.com/forum/zenoyoutube.pdf
    This won't work inside of a browser, but if you download the pdf and open it in Reader 9 it should work. You'll have to click the Flash icon and Allow dialogs first then enter a YouTube URL in the field in the lower right corner and click play. Most YouTube URLs from your browser address field should work, i.e. this format:

    I have imported a WMA-file in Audio-1 track of PE – still no sound to hear. But I can see the sound in the track. (Like in my video-clip) Therefore I also think it is a setting in PE. Will you be so kind to tell me where I have to look? Because I am no expert. Or is it possible that I have to activate anything in PE? It is first time that I will work with PE 9.
    Further information: The original sound of the Mini-DVD is 5:1 surround. After first problem I have changed Nero to export in Stereo, but this did not solve the problem.

  • Is it possible to embed new aspect ratios into your quicktime movies?

    Well my subject line explains it all really. I was wondering if there was a way to embed the aspect ratio in my quicktime movies instead of manually resizing them whenever i open them to a ratio that suits the content better.
    thanks

    I was wondering if there was a way to embed the aspect ratio in my quicktime movies instead of manually resizing them whenever i open them to a ratio that suits the content better... I'd also love to know the answer to this. It's dead easy to amend an anamorphic movie to play at 133% of original width, but can a QT movie be told to open in that ratio the next time?
    Yes, however, to some extent, the method to be employed depends on your media player. QT 7 (and similar applications), for instance, will open using the "Current Size" display dimensions contained within the file. These dimensions are easily changed in the Properties window, using QT 7 Pro while the "Keep Aspect" switch is turned off and do not re-compress the data but may re-write the date to an MOV file container. On the other hand, applications that rely on the embedded PAR flag/value (like QT X, iMovie '08/'09', etc, must be re-compressed using the correct Anamorphic setting to re-embed the correct flag. When both settings are in agreement, an anamorphic file will open correctly in all players. However, where they differ, the files will open correctly in one type player and incorrectly in the other type of player.

  • How to embed flash media encoder

    I wanted to know if it is possible to embed the flash media encoder in a webpage to allow a user to encode a video input without having to download the software on their computer. I have seen several sites (Ustream, LiveStream) have this in place. I was wondering how this is done and if anyone has the code to accomplish this or if anyone knows where I can get the documentation.

    You'll need to use a server side application, something like PHPMotion:
    http://www.phpmotion.com/
    but for any server side scripting like that, you'll most likely need a dedicated server... check with your web host.
    Best wishes,

  • Is it possible to embed keywords assigned in Lightroom 4 into DNG files?

    Keywords I assign to photos in Lightroom do not show up as "tags" when I view the photo's properties in Windows Live Photo Gallery. Is it possible to embed keywords assigned in Lightroom to the properties of the photo file?

    Thanks very much for your response. Ctrl-S saved the keywords to the DNG file properties. However, my original question was wrong. I should have asked how to save the keywords assigned in Lightroom to the properties of a TIFF file. Ctrl-S in Lightroom does not seem to embed keywords assigned to a TIFF file. When I check the properties of a TIFF file in Windows Live Photo Gallery after I have assigned keywords in Lightroom, the keywords assigned in Lightroom do not appear as "tags." Do you have any additional suggestions?
