Looping intro media?

I'm creating an iBook textbook to be used at a convention.  I need the intro media to loop continously until someone slides over to the TOC for Chapter 1.  In the Inspector panel i have the repeat option set to "Loop" but no matter what at the end of the video that I am using it automatically goes to the TOC page of Chapter 1.  Can anyone offer any advice?
Thanks,
Rolando

I've never tried the loop option. But, if that doesn't work, you could put the intro video end to end, say, three times (if you can afford the space that will take). By the time people see the same thing coming around the third time, they'll probably swipe away from the video anyway

  • In i-Book Author my illustration does not show in "Intro Media" when I preview. Help?

    I do not see "insert image" in Intro Media. How do I add my illustration in Intro Media in iBook Author?  Not sure here about (camera icon)? Thank you.

    Confirm the image format is compatible. No animated gifs, either.
    Export an .ibooks file and load it to your iPad via iTunes to see if it works there.
    Delete older versions off your device before re-testing.

  • Why can't I drag media to intro media

    I would like to drop a 10 second clip into the "intro media" section (where it says " drop movie/image here") itof the template.  Each time I attempt to drag the media nothing happens.  However If I try to drop media into the main text using widgets it will allow. 
    What am I doing wrong.  Could it be that the application will allow only media or book cover but not both?
    thanks,
    David

      Import Media is only normally dimmed in the Organizer folders, if an external drive or network is not connected.
     

  • Its 2014, why can I not get the intro media to auto play?

    I cannot get the the intro media to play when either going to that page or even opening the iBook. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Can you describe the steps that you're using to find that out?
    What happens if you delete the book, then add it back into the library and repeat first time run/open?
    What is there about 2014 that you need to know?

  • How Set Video Poster Frame (Image) for Intro Media?

    iBooks Author Mavens,
    How can the Poster Frame (aka, Poster Image) for the Intro Media segment of an iba video be set?
    Irrespective of anything I do with the Widget Inspector...such as attempting to move the Poster Frame to a frame at the desired ~7 second point (in a ~10 second clip)...iBA keeps resetting the Poster Frame to ~2.5 seconds (not wanted).
    Very, very frustrating...suggestions?
    Many, many thanks!
    Plane Wryter

    If you use a video in any place but intro, will your iBA let you choose and keep any poster frame setting you like?

  • Intro Media is not opening automatically even when on a new iPad

    Hi everyone,
    I have looked throught the support community for iBooks Authour for this question. I did find similar questions but no answer.
    The problem:
    We created an iBook with an intro media. There is no issue with the media. You can play it once you go to it. But we want the users to see the intro media as they first download the book. That doesn't happen. It seems that the ibook opens on the last page we have made changes to! This is understandable if we are choosing to "preview" on the same iPad but we tested a new iPad and it too didn't start on the intro media despite not being used to "preview" previously.
    How can we check if the ibook will open to the Intro Media the first time users download the book?
    Thanks,
    Mojdeh

    I got the iBooks to open and play the Intro. But I didn't do anything different. Here is what I did:
    Cleaned the iPad from old versions. Saved the iBooks and then hit Preview. Nothing I hadn't done earlier but then this time I got it to work! Of course it didn't work for the next iPad!
    I also tried to do your process but I am not sure I understand how to "drag that to iTunes". Do you mean iTunes on iPad?
    Also, where do you set Auto-Play? Not in iBooks, right? I don't have this issue but thought I ask.
    Thanks much.

  • Changing the video that I loaded as intro media to my iBook?

    How do I change the video that I loaded as intro media without re-doing my whole iBook? Thanks!

    Are you asking how to replace the intro media or how to update a book in the store?
    Replacing the intro media is just a matter of selecting the current one, then deleting, then repeating the process to add using your new asset.

  • What are limits of pixel dimensions of intro media?

    Is Intro Media constrained to the 768 x 1024 px  full spread standard  - (this is assuming you are creating in landscape mode)? Or can you adjust the dimensions to  something smaller.  I'm trying to design a moving collage and it would help if I knew if Intro Media requires the full 2 page spread or not.

    * What resources are consumed (on the DB) for each PreparedStatement?
    I'm not sure, but the answer would always be specific to the driver and database platform.
    * What is the practical limit on number PreparedStatements per connection?
    I haven't come across any drivers that impose any limit, but I suppose they could.
    * If using multiple connection pools ...
    As per your prior question, PreparedStatements are associated with Connections and not pools. However, if your driver complies with the JDBC 3.0 spec, you might want to research its Statement pooling features. But, you do mention "200 identical PreparedStatements". This might be a bit excessive if the SQL statements you're preparing are dynamic (containing one or more '?' as value place holders) rather than static. If they are static, you might want to consider using dynamic ones instead. Post some examples of your SQL for more feedback.

  • Intro Media

    I have inserted a short QT movie as the "intro media" in my iBook. But is there a way for it to autostart/play? I don't see anywhere to set that in the inspector. I would like it to start playing without the user tapping "play".

    I think a short (10 sec) movie will auto play by default when used as intro media.

  • Controls on Intro Media

    I'm currently diving into Digital Publishing and looking into some of the things that iBooks Author can offer. Is there a way to add controls such as play and pause on the into media piece?

    Yes, it seems that the only way to put controls on an 'intro' video is to create a new chapter and put a video on it. It won't auto-play or automatically go to the next page, not to mention the issues that happen with media widgets between landscape and portrait orientations. I do appreciate you looking into this though.

  • Looping a media file

    Created a flash movie that loops.
    Embedded the movie into an Acrobat 9 document
    Movie plays once then stops.
    I don't see any option or control to allow looping.
    How can I make the movie loop embedded into an Adobe Acrobat 9 PDF? 

    Rich,
    I agree with Ann, regarding the looping.
    However, with that asset Imported into a PrE Project, to repeat it, just drag it to the Timeline, then hit the End key, to move the CTI (Current Time Indicator) to the end of the Timeline, drag another Instance of that asset behind it - repeat.

  • Turning Down Loop Sound Under VO

    OS 10.7.4  MBP
    New to Logic, having been weened on GB.....I do a lot of VOs and narration....I tried to add a music bed from the loops in media section to accompnay my VO....the muisc was way too loud. How do I turn it down, so it's just a nice sound bed, and not in competion with my voice?
    I know you can turn the sound down in GB, as I have many times in the past; couldn't find the same volumn button in Logic.  Must be overlooking something...
    Thanks for any help

    Use the technique called 'Ducking'.
    Put a compressor on the loop track and side-chain it to the vocal track. Mess with the compressor so that when the VO comes in, the loop track is automatically compressed or 'ducked'. When the VO stops the loop track will return to its former level.
    This is the old school way of doing it. I believe Logic actually has a dedicated 'Ducker' plug-in for this very purpose. Again, this isn't a 'new to Logic' issue, this is a new to engineering issue.
    I explain the old school way so that you have a chance of grasping the concept because once you grasp and learn the concept you will think of all sorts of ways to apply the technique. Look up 'Audio Ducking' in Google. There are many, many ways to use ducking. This VO technique is used in virtually every radio and broadcast studio on the planet.
    Hope this helps and good luck.
