Loading a clip in QuickTime Player using a href?

I know you can do this using the embed tag and target="QuickTimePlayer" but is there a way using HTML or JavaScript to make this simply a href as I want it to just say "Click here to load clip in standalone player".
Hope someone can help?
Cheers
Bruce

The free QuickTime Player can open any URL.
Just ask your page visitors to "copy" (instead of click on) your link. Open QuickTime Player, "Open URL" (File menu) and paste the link.
Try it.

  • How do I trim video clips in Quicktime Player?  The "trim" function under the edit menu is gray and won't do anything.

    I am trying to edit video clips from about two yesrs worth of video for an iMovie.  I don't want to load all of the clips into a new event because it would be hours worth of video.  I don't even know if iMovie could handle it.  I have tried to use Quicktime Player to do this, but the "trim" function under the edit menu is gray and won't let me do anything.  What can I do?

    Thank you so much!
    It works!
    I used this code...
    videoDisplay.addEventListener(VideoEvent.COMPLETE, videoCompleteHandler);
    private function videoCompleteHandler(event:VideoEvent):void {
         hideVideo();
    private function hideVideo():void {
         this.visible = false;
         this.includeInLayout = false;
    I have a follow up question...
    What is the syntax to target the video player from a different component to add an event listener to a button in the Sharing Widget called Back to Video?
    Thanks!!

  • Quicktime Player: You don't have permission to save ...

    I am using Quicktime Player to stitch together short .mp4 videos taken on an iPhone or head cam.   When I export the composition although it states it is saving the it, I end up with a message "You don't have permission to save the file "***.mp4v".
    I have used Quicktime successfully to stitch together You Tube clips.
    Where am I going wrong?
    Thank you

    I have the same issue - when I edited the clip in QuickTime Player.
    I removed sections via Split, which seemed to cause the problem.
    To solve this, just close the quicktime window. QT will ask if you want to save. Save.
    Now re-open the file and do your export - should work fine.
    Well, it did for me.
    It appears it's not too hot at exporting an unsaved clip that's been split?

  • Using QuickTime Player's 'Save for Web' feature in iWeb

    I'm using iWeb (3.0.3) to create a site. I've also used the QuickTime Player (10) feature "Save for Web" command to save optimized versions (for iPhone and desktop) of a clip I'm using in my site. I want to keep the nice features of the QT Save for Web, i.e., the poster frame and the nicer QT controller.
    I've managed to get everything hooked up right (using an HTML snippet in iWeb and hand-editing the page's html file to add the lines to <head> that the Save for Web's instructions specify. Yay!
    All good so far. When I view the page in Safari, the poster frame shows up perfectly. But when I click on it, Safari swaps in a new page (frameset?), which loses all the navigational stuff I have on the "real" page. The Save for Web's instruction html page doesn't do this -- why is it happening in the iWeb page? I've tried stripping stuff out of the iWeb-generated page, but no luck.
    Please help ... I've spent HOURS trying to figure this out, and I'm at my wit's end!! 
    (Additionally, if someone can tell me where I can put the 4 files that the Save for Web command creates so that iWeb doesn't wipe them everytime I publish, I would be a very happy man!! 

    This demo page has instructions on how to use that feature: #18 - Adding Movie/Video File to iWeb Page via Export for Web in Quicktime Player. 
    This demo page has an example of how it looks: Using a Movie Exported Out of Quicktime Player via “Export for Web”

    I have a problem - the program QuickTime player longer open files - gororit that codec for the opening of the program at all of the files that I opened have the extension avi. tried to remove a program, it is impossible.I tried to load the program from Apple, reinstalled. but I was wrong still going on! what to do?

    before using for all entries in, u need to check whether the driver internal table is empty, if it is empty, u should not enter into select statement.
    if u wont use this check means, when the driver internal table is empty, the second select will take all the entires from the tables.
    SELECT  AEBELN ALIFNR AKNUMV BVGABE BEBELP BGJAHR B~BELNR

  • Use QuickTime Player to convert movies to iPod video format......

    I don't know if this has been posted but, thought everyone might find it useful.
    You can convert quicktime movies to readable ipod video format without having to purchase Quicktime Pro. Thats right, just the Quicktime player.
    Now, I know that you can use Handbrake along with other converter programs for free. but just in case you want to use Quicktime Player here is a link that will show you how via applescript or automator.
    http://www.cs.brandeis.edu/~ari/scripts/Quicktime2iTunesVideo.html

    Here's a step-by-step of ONE of the ways (I have a Mac) you can convert your videos (mpgs) to mpeg4 files to view on your 5th gen iPods so your videos will have sound:
    I use Mpeg streamclip found on www.squared5.com.
    (This is from memory and I don't have the program opened in front of me so apologies if this is not totally accurate!)
    Once you've installed Mpeg streamclip, and opened up a new window, drag the mpg file you want converted onto the new window. You should now see the first clip of your video in the window.
    Go to File and choose "Export to MPEG4". This will open up another window. Click the button "iPod" on the upper right corner of the window and that will automatically input the settings for an iPod. Then click the button "Export to MPEG4" at the lower right corner of the window. You have to choose where you want your file saved. I just place them in the Videos folder of my hard drive. Then this will start the conversion of your mpg.
    Depending on how large your file is, this may take awhile.
    When the conversion is complete, simply take your new file (now with ".mpeg4" as an extension) and DRAG it into your iTunes library. I don't remember if you have to actually drag it onto your iPod as well.
    As you drag the mpeg4 file onto your iPod, it should say "updating song" at the top of you iTunes window, then you know it worked.
    So now you have a VIDEO on your iPod that plays SOUND!!
    Hope this was helpful.

  • I have quicktime  player 7.7.2. A relative video clips from his phone. Previously they downloaded with both video and audio. As of Sept. 30 only the audio downloads, yet Quicktime still plays older saved video/audio clips. Help?

    I have Quicktime Player 7.7.2. A relative has been sending video clips from his phone since June, and until Sept. 30 both the video and audio would download. SInce that date only the audio downloads, yet I can still open and play the older saved videos just fine. I tried looking at QuickTime help info available. One place said something about purchasing Quick Pro for use with 7.7.2, but if I need that, why can I still open older saved videos? Thanks for any help.

    I'm adding more information:
    in Finder, my iMovie folders are all visible and accessible.  When I click on a clip from iMovie Events folder, Quicktime opens and plays the clip.  ALL my video is not missing - it just isn't showing up in the Event Library!
    This happened all of a sudden, while I was working on iMovie project (on both computers).
    All my Projects are intact, and play when I open them. 

  • I have a HD video clip (MPEG 4), able to watch in VLC in my Mac-book-pro, but not in Quicktime player and FCP X - just seen as full green. Help please to view in FCP X by changing the format or what ever thats required.

    I have a HD video clip (MPEG 4), able to watch in VLC in my Mac-book-pro, but not in Quicktime player and FCP X - just seen as full green. Help please to view in FCP X by changing the format or what ever thats required.  Thank you.

    Thanks for your reply. This video was recorded by my own professional camera, Sony PMW EX 3, two years back. But I am neither a professional cameraman nor an editor. I am just like a beginner in both.  I didnt have space in my storage device, so I just copied all my clips, thinking I can edit it latter, without recompressing or editing or whatever I should have done it at that point of time.  Now I need to edit it and use it in my profession. I am very upset.  Please help me in going step by step to get it in FCP X for editing.  Also I would like to know, do I need to buy the Compressor 4 for any reason. I dont mind in buying, if you think it is going to be useful for some reason.  Thank you very much in anticipation for any kind of proper guidance.

  • Quicktime player does not play video clip on desktop but plays in iPhoto

    QuickTime player opens the video clip but the screen remains blank and no sound either. What am I doing wrong? It plays perfectly well in iPhoto.

    Do they not play in iTunes?
    They should play in VLC:

  • I have lots of .MOV files on my iPhone5 that I need to transfer to my PC.  Using QuickTime Player 7.7.4 I am unable to view them once they have been copied to a hard drive or directly from the iPhone via USB. 1% of the time a vid is viewable

    I can tranfer them to a hard drive on my PC, but am unable to view most of them using QuickTime Player 7.7.4. Doesn't matter if I'm viewing them via a USB connection to my iPhone5 or from a hard drive after the file has been copied via USB.  1% of the vids are viewable, 20% open with a black screen and audio only. The rest open with a blue, purple and green stryrated mess and no audio.  Yes its a Quick Time problem I know but where do I post this question in the community?  Also searching my drives for other .MOV files downloaded from the net I find the same problem with them.

    Heres what I don't like about VLC, but at least the files are viewable...somewhat.
    1. You can't flip the image 90degrees, needs to have a rotate feature for sure.  This needs to have keyboard shortcut so vids can be rotated easily as one may have shot video horizontally and vertically in the same take.
    2. Opens file to a very large window, most of it off the screen, it should REMEMBER what you resized it to, so the next time a video is played you don't have  to drag the window back on the screen so you can get to the resizing handle in the lower corner.
    3.  Doesn't buffer while playing, so the movies are extremely erractic, starting and stopping every 3 seconds, highly annoying. 
    OK so maybe my PC is too slow, its a dual processor 486 Hyperrthread 2.8G but I only have 2Gigs of memory, however, bettery than 50% of the memory is still available while playing a vid (memory is checked every 4 seconds with a program), but I have 90-100% CPU useage going on while playing.
    Maybe I should think about a new computer.

    I would like to ask the following question. I am using mac os x 10.9 maverics me quicktime player version 10.3. Can I trim a video recording without having to press the pause or save it as a file? Or can I add a new recording to a video file? Thanks in advance

    Well,
    I tried the "Internet Recovery" option and finally saw Mac OS X Mountain Lion's install page but after waiting 7 hours when I just thought its going to start installing, I got another progress bar with 36 hours remining time to download "Additional Components" then after progressing 2-3 hours, it shows "Unable to write installation something..., Contact Apple Care"
    Then I accidently rebooted the machine and now it seems Internet Recovery don't work anymore, it shows "support.apple.com - 40 something!" error, and finally when I tried to reboot using Recovery HD, I found it's gone as-well!
    To be honest, I don't know what to do now, I am and dissapointed... also I do not have any Apple Store nearby, there is an authorized country reseller almost 650/km far away from my residents and they even charges too high (like $250) for doing such repairs (as per phone conversation)
    If anyone have any idea or anything to help me with, please do share- I'd be eternally grateful!

  • Video blinks when I use quicktime player?

    When I use QuickTime PLayer to watch videos the video stops for a very little time (blinks) No matter if a movie, music video or ads.

    It is blocked due to licensing, in order to mirror it would need to break DRM copy protection and this isn't legal.

  • Save as quicktime file so quicktime player can be used after right-click

    Hey,
    I'm adding short .aiff's to a site for people to right click and save.
    -I'm making the .aiff using logic express.
    -Bouncing to desktop.
    -Changing file to "open using quicktime player" which makes the file look like a quicktime file with the big "Q" on it. When I double click on the file, it opens with quicktime player.
    -Creating text box and linking .aiff (actually they are .aifc) file to text box, just regular stuff for creating links for files.
    -After I publish site to folder. When I go in and right click on the link to save to desktop, the file I thought used quicktime player becomes an itunes .aiff file with the itunes colors (green) and opens using itunes, thus adding the file to my itunes library.
    I'd like people to be able to just open the .aiff and quicktime player would automatically play the file, this way unwanted stuff won't be added to itunes library.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks, byt
    ps, I've been looking up the difference between .aiff and .aifc. It looks as if they are about the same except you can compress .aifc. Does it really matter which is which if you're not compressing or anything and just clicking and playing?
    imac g5   Mac OS X (10.4.5)   Woodwinds, presonus firebox, Garageband and Logic Express, iweb

    -After I publish site to folder. When I go in and
    right click on the link to save to desktop, the file
    I thought used quicktime player becomes an itunes
    .aiff file with the itunes colors (green) and opens
    using itunes, thus adding the file to my itunes
    library.
    I think this is a function of how someone's browser is set up or maybe system preferences that associate file types with certain default applications. For instance, you can take the .aiff file on your desktop that is currently associated with iTunes (and has the iTunes icon)....right click on it and select "Open with..." In the opened window select QuickTime player and then check the "Always Open With" box. This will make QuickTime player the default player of .aiff files instead of iTunes. So you see how it is a user defined variable in terms of which application opens which document.
    I'd like people to be able to just open the .aiff and
    quicktime player would automatically play the file,
    this way unwanted stuff won't be added to itunes
    library.
    An alternative would be to convert your sound files to .mov files that will by system default be opened by QuickTime player directly...just like iTunes is the system default for .aiff sound files.
    If you have found any of this information to be useful to you, please take the time to provide me with feedback by marking my reply as "solved" or "helpful" using those little buttons that you see in the title bar of this reply. I'd really appreciate it!

  • How to use music e-mail attachment coming in w QuickTime Player

    I have QuickTime Player 7.1.5
    When I download a music attachment from an e-mail, it comes in as Quicktime. Problem is: how do I download it to use it?
    Tried to get it into iTunes, but didn't work. Went to QuickTime Player Help, which was of no help.
    1) Why does a music attachment (meaning a song, or tune) come in as an e-mail QuickTime file?
    2) What can I do with it?

    Open iTunes>Music>File>New Playlist
    Drag the QT file onto the blank New Playlist window.
    For burning, first you need to determine if your iMac is capable of burning (If you are not using external burning hardware.). If so, then w/iTunes still open click the burn disc symbol at the bottom of the iTunes window. iTunes will guide you from there.
    For further burning instructions, read iTunes Help Menu, your OS Help Menu & check out the iTunes Forum.
    I do not own an iPod, so I can't help you there. Until the iPod knowledgeable users come in here, suggest that you cross-post in one of the iPod Forums for whichever iPod model you have where the iPod users hang out.
