Looping part of a QT movie in keynote

Hi, I want to be able to have a movie in keynote that plays the whole movie and once it reaches the end it jumps back to a certin point in the movie (not the begining) and plays that part over and over till i change the slide, so the effect is, for example, a movie shows a title or something coming in, and then loops from the end back to a point after the title comes in to keep a little movement going on the title instead of stopping all together.
any ideas?
Thanks!

I run into similar problems with music. You can't really make it jump back to a certain point. What you can do is copy the movie editing out the beginning portion that you don't want to be replayed. You have to add this to a second slide and have the movie play once automatically go to the next slide and then have the edited movie automatically start and loop. This isn't the sexiest way to make it happen but it will work. You then just click to the next slide when you are ready.
Hope that this helps.

Animated GIFs don't loop in exported movies from Keynote 3

I am just getting started with Keynote 3.0 and really like what I have seen. I created a series of slides and pasted animated GIFs in various places. They are set to loop on each slide as Keynote presents the slides. The slide show has preset transition and build timings and there is music playing continuously, throughout the show. It works quite well. (However, there is very intermittent choppy audio and video playback when there are builds or transitions occurring. Any thoughts on optimizing this?)
The problems begin when I ask Keynote to export the slideshow to a movie. The main problem that I am struggling with is that the animated GIFs don't loop in the rendered movie, regardless of which compressor I choose. I don't see anything in the documentation. I have also searched several of the discussions on making movies from Keynote 3 but have not specifically seen animated GIFs discussed. What am I missing here?
Also, I want to be able to play this movie on a DVD player at an upcoming function. Any recommendations for an approach that will be best? I have QT 7 Pro and the iLife '06 suite.
Thanks, in advance, for any forthcoming suggestions.

My guess is, it's too much of a pain to have to calculate how many times it will actually loop and create the loops and then composite everything. Running it in Keynote just tells the thing to keep playing over and over till you do something that stops it. There's a BIG difference there as one is just being told to play, the other is having to be placed in a movie with an exact number of frames, so there are a bunch of calculations involved.

How can i play a movie in keynote from more than 600 seconds between other slides in a automatic loop

How can i play a movie in keynote from more than 600 seconds between other slides in a automatic loop

The maximum duration available for an automatic presentation in Keynote is 600 seconds.
The alternatives are to export a QuickTime video, use other presentation applications, a media server player or digital signage application.

Interactive quicktime movie from keynote doesn't stream correctly on web

hello,
Any help with this would be extremely appreciated as I've been trying to solve the problem for 3 days straight. I've created an interactive slide show in keynote and now want to stream it on my website. The problem is that the finished product, a QuickTime movie keeps re-starting when it reaches the first interactive link until the movie is completely loaded. At that point it then correctly stops at the first link but by this time it has looped the beginning of my movie three times. I've tried figuring out a way to partially load the movie before it starts playing through JavaScript to no avail. I'd like to avoid loading the whole movie before starting it due to its length. If I have to pre-load the entire movie, I'd like a status bar for loading but controls hidden while it plays.
Help please!

Welcome to the discussions, Christopher.
Over in the Keynote discussions we've been going over this for quite awhile. Unfortunately, there's no easy solution to your problem. I've even gone as far as attempting to preload the chapter track thinking that might solve the problem, but it doesn't work.
One thing I don't think I've tried is setting up the first slide to advance "on-click" so that there's no animation before the first transition. The problem, of course, is that there's no "loading" animation to let it know when it's ready to go.
Another thing I haven't tried but that might work is to create the movie so that it doesn't autoplay, and then, using the embed commands, set autoplay to be the full length of the movie (so that it will automatically play, but only after it's completely downloaded). Look here for the autoplay embed commands.

Tinting part of an animated movie clip

Hello - I have a need to tint part of an animated movie clip. For example, I might have a movie clip that consists of 2 layers, 1 layer that is tinted, and one layer that is not tinted. The animation needs to be done by an artist - it is not an algorithmic animation.
One way to do this is to make each layer a separate movie clip. Then I can apply a tint using the colorTransform property in ActionScript 3 on the 2nd movie clip. This works correctly but has several issues:
It makes it extremely difficult for the artist who creates the original animation. They can't scroll through the timeline and see what the final result looks like (like they could before the layers were converted to movie clips).
In order to drive the animation, you have to call gotoAndPlay on each sub-movie clip, instead of just once at the root level. This can cause mistakes if one movie clip's animation is slightly different than the other's.
I've played around with a ton of ways to do this, but nothing seems to work - either the tint ends up getting lost as the movie clip plays, or the tint sticks but the animation on the movie clip disappears.
Some examples of the types of things that would make this possible would be being able to assign a Tint setting from the the Flash IDE to an actionscript variable that I could change dynamically, being able to apply tints to layers instead of movie clips, etc. As far as I can tell, none of this is accessible in actionscript.
Does anyone have suggestions on how I can solve this problem, either through actionscript or by changing how the original Flash .fla is set up? To reiterate - making it so the artist can easily create the animation and maintain it is a top priority.
Thanks!

it doesn't matter what kind of loop you use as long as it
checks frequently enough to catch the termination condition, not
too frequently so it wastes computing resources and terminates when
no longer needed.

Looping part of a song

Hi guys,
All new to Garageband with a recent purchase of a schmick new iMac, should of moved to mac a long time ago!
I am wanting to know how I can loop part of a song?
For example, I have a song that has a cool intro and I want to extend only that particular section then continue on with the song once it kicks in.
I can see the normal way of looping by mouse over at the end of the selected track then dragging it out however this is looping the entire piece of music, I only need say the first 45 seconds looped.
I have used a great tool in another audio app where it let's you loop in real-time and then saves your changes, all by clicking on either the 2 beat, 4 beat or 8 beat loop buttons when it approaches on your timeline.
Does Garageband have a similar feature or some easy functionality to make this task less painful?
Much appreciate anyone's assistance or feedback

split the region at the point you wish to loop:

(Let the page FULLY load. The link to your answer is at the top of your screen)
move the right hand region away and then you can loop the intro piece as you already learned.

How do I move a keynote file from my computer to my ipad?

I have a Mac OS X version 10.6.8 and an Ipad version 7.0.6. How can I move a Keynote file from my Mac to my Ipad? I do not have Icloud on my Mac.

Have you tried e-mailing the Keynote file to yourself? You can then press and hold on the attachment in Mail and choose to open in Keynote. However the results may depend on your version of Keynote.

How can I export a graphic slide with a quicktime movie from Keynote?

I export a title slide with a quicktime movie from Keynote to my desktop and it plays fine with audio. Once I insert or drag the clip into iWeb the resolution is degraded and very choppy. The resolution is 320x200 and I'm exporting from Keynote as a custom size (320x200) Frame rate: 29.97 Key Frames: Automatic Key Reordering is checked Data Rate: Automatic Quality: Multi pass. I need some help.

how large is the video and if you publish - does it still have the same horrible quality?
you might considering exporting as flash (loads faster) and integrating that into your iweb site using post-editing: http://karreth.com/index.php/articles/iframes-iweb/

Exporting a QuickTime movie in Keynote '09

Hello,
I am trying to create a quick time movie from Keynote.
I have a five minute audio file sound track to which I have selected 28 Slides.
When I first exported, I hear the audio, but the video does not advance.
I have considered using "Fixed Timing" but it looks like you are then forced to set uniform slide display duration and uniform transition duration. However, my slides have a variety of display-durations, and transition-durations. (All the advances are automatic, not manual.)
Please help me create a movie that actually reflects the original Keynote show as created, and tweaked.

You need to record your slideshow so you can export with the recorded timing. Go to the Play Menu then Record Slideshow. This will run through your slideshow and record when the transitions take place. Then when you export you can select Recorded Timing.
Since you have a soundtrack, you will want to make sure under the audio section to select Include the slideshow soundtrack, but uncheck Include the slideshow recording.
I should add that there have been many people here that have had problems with the timing getting off a little in the Quicktime file. So if you need the timing to be exact, you might want to export without the audio then add to iMovie where you can work with the audio and video a little more.

Is there any where that I can voice why I returned my beloved new Ipad? I was told I could move my Keynote presentations to it and then use it for my
business presentations. Unfortunately that turned out to not be true. I need the IPad to work with a remote.
The Ipad is on a short cable to my projector. I am usually on a podium 30 feet away. No infra red receiver on the IPad and
the Iphone remote needs wi fi which is not always available in all the locations I do my teaching and lecturing in.
If you can build a remote into the Ipad in the future I would really like to use an Ipad to replace my heavier lap top for business travel. Thank You Kathy McNeil.

Get a longer cable?

I can not loop part of my animation. Please Help.

Hello for the past 4 hours I have been trying to loop part of my animation. I've gone through a few tutorials step by step, but I am not getting it to work. I need the animation to loop when it is completed back to the label named "looper". I have tried adding the action to the end of the timeline, I have also tried triggers, but they all do not work. Thank you for the help.
Here is the link to the project. https://creative.adobe.com/share/ccb48fd8-9cd8-4de4-b6b5-e2cf8ac29150

Your link does not seem to work.
Did you apply the principles shown in the AE sample: Creating a Loop Counter?

Importing WMV movies into Keynote?

I'm very new to Keynote and actually movies. I'd like to create a presentation that uses slides, QT Movies and specifically (wmv movies). How can I import the wmv movies into Keynote?
Thanks,
Bill

WMV (Windows Media Video) is not a compatible format for use within Keynote. You will have to convert them to .mov files, however, there are no free applications to do that. They require a purchased license. Flip4Mac will allow you to try the process, but has a limitation of 1/2 the duration of the clip, up to 30 seconds. You choose Export in the file pull down menu in Quicktime, then choose your desired output format. If you want to buy it, you go to the F4M prefs and click on the upgrade tab. The other app that does conversion is called Visual Hub. It's not as full featured as F4M, but it's a little cheaper, and does an OK job.
