Is there a "play-all" type feature?

Hi...I'm making my first DVD with iDVD and I was wondering if there is a way to have a "play-all" option. Basically, I have a bunch of small video clips in a sub-menu that I would like to have the option of viewing individually or all in a continuous mode, similar to what you would see on a movie's special features.
I have searched and know that you can "loop" videos together, but it looks like if you do this, then you don't have the option of playing them individually. Is there a way to create an optional "play all" feature?
Any info would be great. Thanks!

Not as you are describing, but you can do a work around. Move your clips into imovie and create a continous movie.During the process add in chapter markers between your clips. Then share the project to idvd. You will get a play movie (to play the entire movie and a scene selection menu that will have your individual movies in it. You can then rename the play movie and scene selection buttons to whatever you want. Or, you can click on folder icon at the bottom of the screen and move the clips around.

Is there a "play all" feature for videos on iphone4????

Is there a "play all" feature for videos on iphone4????

Hi Robin
Welcome to apple discussions. I use Toast (personal choice only) in this situation since it has a play all check box. But then you don't get the fancy menus.

There is no such check box within iDvd for selecting play all but you can set up iDvd's preferences to address scene selection menus when a movie/s is added. And here's how you do that:
A second option might involve adding the 8 separate movies to the slideshow feature within iDvd for continuous play. And yes you can add photos as well as movies to idvd's slideshow feature with a number of added benefits which I won't go into here. But if you want more info on this procedure just look at a few of Old Toad's prior posts / replies on this iDvd forum.

Is there a play all button?

if i add 3 projects to idvd to burn on the same dvd is there a play all button that will play all the clips without going back to the menu after each clip?

Hi
*Play all resp one chapter at a time*
Play All Button
1. There are NO - Play All - button in any version of iDVD
2. It can be faked in several ways
• Easies and most fault proof way is to make a doublet movie containing All and with
Chapters set to match. It will take up x2 space but is easy to understand and produce.
• It's said that one can put all movies into a Photo/SlideShow and this will also
give the function of a Play All button - Never tested though.

You might be able to get close to what you want by using a slideshow in iDVD. (It's not widely known, but you can put videos in a slideshow.) If you set the slide duration to manual, playback will pause after each movie/slide, and you can continue with the 'next' button.
3. Using another program to do this eg. Roxio Toast™ where there ia a Play All button option.

Is there a 'Play All' option for DVD menu?

Hi,
I was hoping someone can possibly help here... I have created a DVD menu in iDVD with 8 separate movie items each with their own button (with underlined feature), but with no sub menus or additional pages.
Incidentally, these items are home movies, transfered from old Hi8 tapes, edited in iMovie then added to iDVD.
The 8 items have all successfully loaded to the iDVD menu and will play when each item is selected (in test mode).
However, I was hoping to also add a 'Play All' button so that the whole DVD content can be played as one continuous piece if required, rather than being limited to being able to play only individual items at a time and then having to return to the menu page in order to select the next item.
Please can anyone offer any help here? I'm very new to Macs/iDVD etc so simple, basic guidance would be much appreciated!!!
Many thanks,
Robin-UK

Is there a 'system restore' type feature?

My (not so) DD has managed to delete all my bookmarks, passwords and settings off my macbook. Its also asking me if I want to change the keychain - whatever that means!!
Is there anyway I can get them back? I've lost my e-mail folders - I know how to get them back though!
Just wondering if there was some sort of 'roll back' feature that would get everything back!

Time Machine. If you have a full Time Machine backup, you can boot from your installation DVD and choose to restore the system. Otherwise, no, there is no "rollback" feature.
I'm not sure what you mean by "DD." How did you delete your settings, etc?
Finally, the keychain is an application that collects and securely stores your passwords for various applications, user accounts, websites, etc. so that you don't have to type those passwords every time you access the application or website they protect.

Is there a mail-merge type feature?

We have a form that was created using Designer 7.0 and we have collected the transmitted XML data into a database. We'd like to push the data from the database back into the form, similar to the way you'd do a Mail Merge function with Microsoft Word. The end result should be a multi-page PDF (or many single PDF's) that we can print, where each page is filled in as if the user had done it.
I know this kind of defeats the purpose of PDF, but we've found out that the physical forms need to be printed on paper so we can have people verify and sign.
We also have Acrobat 7.0, and it is all running on XP SP3.

Not as you are describing, but you can do a work around. Move your clips into imovie and create a continous movie.During the process add in chapter markers between your clips. Then share the project to idvd. You will get a play movie (to play the entire movie and a scene selection menu that will have your individual movies in it.

How to Play all type audio or video file in Flex 4.5 mobile

Hi,
I need audio player and video player include by Mobile app.
<s:VideoPlayer - not mobile optimized.

First of all, thanks for your reply.
second, the way i found is this: http://www.sparkfun.com/products/10748 sparkfuns IOIO device. i'm planning to use its UART port for real time serial communication.
yet the thing i couldnt understand is, how people never feel the need to use threading in Flex. I mean, HOW?

In the current "Podcast" app is there a way to play ALL episodes of ALL podcasts chronologically from oldest to newest like there was in the "Unplayed Episodes" list of the original "Podcast" app?

In the original version of the Podcasts app there was an "Unplayed Episodes" list that listed ALL the episodes of ALL the podcasts I had loaded on to my device, and I could listen to them in chronological order from oldest to newest.
In the new Podcasts update I see a list called "All Unplayed" but when I select a podcast from there it plays all the episode of JUST THAT podcast, without switching between podcasts to whatever episode on my device is chronologically next.
Is there a way to listen to my podcasts chronologically across Podcast series and I'm just missing it or did Apple screw the pooch on this one?

Please, please, please... I wonder if the solution of deleting the Podcast App and using the Music App again would work. My favorite sports radio station splits up their podcasts by DJ (logical), but I want to listen to all podcasts from one day from all DJs. No longer automatic :(
Apple developers, if you read this please add this feature - you had it in Music App.

Play All Feature Requ

I keep several audio books on my Zen in addition to music. It would be nice if the Play All music feature skipped files that are in the Audio Book or Spoken Word genres. I don't want these files interrupting my music listening. It seems like this would be an easy feature to implement. I don't know of any MP3 type player that does this though. Just a thought,-bs

Yes, I suppose I could. That is a good idea that I hadn't considered. The challenge is that I would need to do this manually since Audible.com expects them in the Music folder and their software manages their files accordingly. Thanks for the idea though. It may lead me to a solution.-bs

Play next song feature

Listening on PC using itunes, is there a play next song feature where you can select the next song to be played?

Not really. Best you can do is make a playlist and play from that.

Is there an "insert all links" type of feature or add-on for Firefox that works with Thunderbird?

Hello Firefoxies,
Is there an "insert all links" type of feature or add-on for Firefox that works with Thunderbird or any email app? I want to be able to insert all the links from a Firefox bookmarks folder automatically in to an outgoing email and include the names that I have given to those saved links / bookmarks.
I searched for this add-on on the Firefox and the Thunderbird sites, but I don’t think the one that I found is for what I am thinking of.
What I would like to do is to be able to add all the links in a saved tabs folder, or any bookmarks folder, from Firefox in to the body of an outgoing email preferably in Thunderbird, or any email app... so I could just click and all the links and hopefully all the names that I have given to those links will then appear in the body of an outgoing email automatically, ready for me to then write what I want, plug in an address, and send.
When I did a search of add-ons on the Firefox and Thunderbird sites, I found something called “Open all links 0.3.1” on the Thunderbird site that I think is for the opposite of my description... I think this add-on is to automatically open all the links in an email that is received... '''which IS NOT what I want to do'''... I want to place all the links that I have in a Firefox bookmarks folder in to an outgoing email... the URL to the “Open all links 0.3.1” add-on is below for you to look at just in case I am reading this wrong...

Otherwise, I could not find any add-on that fits my description.
Thanks so much,

How do you make it so that the ipod will play all the different artists featured in an album when you click that album to play?

How do you make it so that the ipod will play all the different artists featured in an album when you click that album to play? At the moment, each artist in the album is being separated and I can't play them together. For example, to play the Halo 2 Soundtrack, Hoobastank, Breaking Benjamin, Nile Rodgers, etc. are some of the artists featured. However, in the Albums category, they are each separate choices. I want to play them all together, but can't. Is there a way to do that?

It sounds like the album metadata is incorrect, or differs from song to song in iTunes. Albums with various artists will play properly assuming all the songs are tagged with the same identical album name, as well as the track number. For the Halo 2 Soundtrack, metadata should look like this:
Song: <Song Title>
Artist: <Song Artist>
Album: Halo 2, Vol. 1 (Original Soundtrack)
Genre: Soundtrack
I had a similar problem with my imported Cowboy Bebop albums and the mixture of artists/album names. Once I adjusted the metadata, all of them play in the correct order just by selecting the Album from the available list or in Coverflow.

On my mac I have both Quicktime X and Quicktime 7 pro. Both applications seem to be crashing quite often lately. This happens when playing all files types. I notice it more with .flv file. It usually happens when i grab the time slider bar and try to move

On my mac I have both Quicktime X and Quicktime 7 pro. Both applications seem to be crashing quite often lately. This happens when playing all files types. I notice it more with .flv file. It usually happens when i grab the time slider bar and try to move it. The apps will freeze and I have to "force quit" to get them to close. Sometimes putting the computer to sleep and waking it up helps. Is there a way to remedy this?

Oops, I needed to update my profile. I have snow leopard now

Is there a "play-all" type feature?
