MAKE EMBEDDED QUICKTIME WITH PLAY BUTTON IN FRAME

Hello does anyone know how to make an embed quicktime with a play button in the video frame so it has a poster frame and a button on it and wont play until it is clicked on

It's known as a poster movie. The first file acts as either a placeholder (or a button) that is linked to the second file.
You can use any image format to create your click to play "button" and add it to a single frame from your movie or to another image. Size this 16 pixels higher than your movie source file if you plan on showing the movie controller and save it as poster.mov.
Your html code will have this poster movie load and nothing further will happen until your visitor clicks on it. Once clicked the second .mov file will begin downloading and then playing. You can also use this poster movie technique to load a second movie directly in the QuickTime Player app.

How to make email link with a button with AC2 in flash cs3?

How to make email link with a button with AC2 in flash cs3?
I wrote this, but it does not work:
btn_emailinfo.on (release) {
getURL("mailto:"[email protected]");
}

I am guessing you put that on a frame?
If so, the syntax is as follows:
btn_emailinfo.onRelease = function(){
getURL("mailto:[email protected]");
Though, if you are placing it directly on the button itself,
the syntax is:
on(release){
getURL("mailto:[email protected]");
}

How to make a big screen PLAY button for FLV which will fade away after the movie starts?

I wanted to make play button. Kind of this huge one in the middle of the screen as users used to see on YouTube.
Here is the code for it which seems to work:
play_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick_Play);
function onClick_Play(event:MouseEvent) :void {
SWF_flv2.play();
The problem is it doesn't dissapear once the video plays. How shoudl it be done, the whole video has to go to another frame with no play_btn on it or there is a code which can make it fade away?

The FLVPlayback component can be set to use any number of controls for the video playback. You should use those for playback control once the video has started. If you do want to create all of your own custom controls, here's an Adobe tutorial on the FLVPlayback control structure: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/as3/components/WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d118a9c65b32-7f00.html

Embedded Quicktime not playing correctly in InDesign PDF - please help!!

ok - I have an issue that I can't work out and I'm hoping someone can help - tried searching for an answer to no avail. I've just built my first interactive PDF portfolio in InDesign. I should point out that I'm a producer/editor, so my knowledge of InDesign & Acrobat is not extensive. The PDF includes some embedded Quicktime movies. The movies play normally on one of my monitors (Samsung 1680x1050), but will not play correctly on my other two monitors (2x Samsung 1280x1024) - the audio plays and the play controller appears to be working but the video area is just all white...HOWEVER...if I open the PDF and play just one of the videos on my 1680x1050 monitor first, then all videos play correctly on all monitors. Have tried opening the PDF on another desktop and the movies do not work (in the same manner as above)- also tried on my laptop and the movies play correctly. Please help if you can - I need to get this out to clients and I'm baffled!! Thank You!

Is it as easy as wmode: transparent after shoving the swf into a table??? does the transparent option make everything outside the table dissappear? thanks...

White Slide with Play Button (HTML5), Cp7

Does anyone know why you get the blank white screen with a play button with HTML5? Why doesn't it use first frame or allow us to put in a "poster file"?
I posted a workaround that required editing files in Cp6 but I am curious if Cp7 has addressed this issue?
Thanks.
Dave

The same workaround is reuired.
Go in assets and change the .CSS then you also need to edit the index.html to center the image like you did before.
And yes it is impossible to get rid of it all toghether because of Apple policies.

Flash movies with play button don't work

I have the 'simple' problem that everytime I see a "play" button on a web page with flash content, clicking on it won't start the movie. However, e.g. YouTube movies work fine. So it seems it's just movies that do not start automatically after clicking on a link.
Also, checking the flash player e.g. at the Adobe site (http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/find-version-flash-player.html), tells me in a flash box I have the latest flash player installed, and I see the flash movie 'flash player is running on your system' with the red ball rolling in it.
I have the same problem for both google Chrome and for IE.
I still have an old Dell Inspiron 6000 notebook with Win XP (latest updates) and ATI mobility Radeon X300 graphics chip, for which I also installed the latest available drivers.
Experimenting with Flash Player settings was unsuccessful so far (e.g. no hardware acceleration, clearing all internet data in the Flash Player global settings tool).
My desktop (also with Win XP and with the same browsers and Flash Players/Flash Plugins installed works fine...).
I also know that it worked at an earlier time with this NB...
I managed to run the movie with a Linux Live CD but that is not what I want to do every time...
Any idea is highly appreciated.....

Hi BalusC, i have saved the datamodel (a ArrayList) in SessionBean. It can't be null. The rows of table display correct. I don't understand, why functions buttons with ObjectArrayDataProvider, but not with ObjectListDataProvider?

Flash player drops frames with playing live h264 frames

Hi
i have been tryin to get to a adobe representative for a long time now regarding this but unfortunately no one responds fast enough. I am facing a terrible issue. When broadcasting h264 live video from a flash based encoder client i notice severe frame drops on the playback end no matter what player i use. It even happens if i use fms development server on my own system. Video becomes smooth if i add a 1 sec buffer to the player. but then the video is no longer live.
So my question is , is theer somethign wrong with h264 encoding in flash player or thats the way it is suppose to be ? at zero buffer frame drops are severe. Sample config :
320 x 240 @ 24 fps @ 90000 bps @ 100 KFI @ 3.1 level @ baseline profile.
I sincerely some one at adobe to respond. There are many stranded questions on this topic on the forum and on the web already.

The CPU usage is 2-6% on the i7 920 vista 64bit computer. The audio doesn't seem to be dropping. Some more clues that might help you help me
- The quality of the video doesn't matter, 360p drops frames just as often as 720p or 1080p.
- The dropped frames still occur even when the video is completely downloaded and replayed without any buffering needed.
One thing that does fix the dropped frames is completely disabling my sound card in the windows playback sound options. This also fixes the second computer's dropped frames which only has onboard realtek audio. I have tried using a Creative PCI sound card and the built in realtek sound but they both behave the same. The latest drivers were installed for both.

How to make parallax scroll with play audio event in specific areas

Hello there, i would like to learn how can i play audio while scrol is in specific areas that i choosed. For example think that stage is 1920*5000 i want play audio when scroll is in 3000. I am using this code for parallax

EC.centerStage(sym);
EC.Parallax.setup(sym);
so please help me how can i integrate this thing to my project. Thanks

This is your third posting on this topic.
If you need further help then you need to create a [Short, Self Contained, Compilable and Executable, Example Program (SSCCE)|http://homepage1.nifty.com/algafield/sscce.html], that demonstrates the incorrect behaviour.
We don't have access to your database so the code can't be executed.

Splash Screen "Play" button Trouble

I have a splash screen at the beginning of my animation. When I push the play button, I want it to go straight to the animated map and start playing, but it just goes to the map and the user has to push play again. How do I make it so the play button on the splash screen makes the map automatically start moving in the animation?

How is all of this set up? Is the map animation on the main timeline or is this animation in its own movieClip? If the map animation is on the main timeline, how are navigating to that part of the movie? Are you using "gotoAndStop()" or "gotoAndPlay()" or something else?

I received an email with an embedded QuickTime song. It plays but I would like to save it to my device so I may bypass retrieving it via email. How do I do this?

I have an iPhone4. I thought it came with the QuickTime application but cannot find it currently installed in my phone. I received an email with an embedded QuickTime song how can I bypass the email and save the music to my device? There is no difficulty accessing or playing the music.

Thanks Michael, this truth gradually became clear to me as I experimented.
Here's my workaround: Label the audio track something other than music and it will sync. It this case I called it a podcast and I could transfer the audio.
I will be provideing feedback to Apple but I am sure it's something they must be working on.
At the moment the only way to send an audio track labeled MUSIC to your iCloud enabled iPhone is to drag it into iTunes, upload it to the cloud, put it in a playlist, sync the iPhone then go to that synced playlist and re-download the track. Cumbersome doesn't quite capture it. Facepalm gets closer.
Looking forward to seeing iCloud mature.

Hi - Re Keynote I'm trying to figure out how to create a music album on USB flash drive. What I want is a background picture with 'click-buttons' to play each track listed, also similar for embedded videos and photos etc. Is this possible with Keynote ?

Hi - Re Keynote I'm trying to figure out how to create a music album (as an artist) on USB flash drive, (accessible by both Mac and PC). What I want is a background picture with 'click-buttons' to play each track listed, and play in order (like a cd) - also similar for embedded videos and photos etc. This should all be on the one page.
Is this possible with Keynote, or any other software package for Mac (am using Macbook Pro) ?

Hi there,
Yikes, it sounds like you've been doing a lot of work on this project... Unfortunately, however, this isn't the Adobe Encore forum, but the Acrobat.com forum. While it seems like an exciting question, we're not able to address issues pertaining to other Adobe products and services. Here's a link to the Adobe Encore forum, where you're more likely to get help for this specific issue:

How do I hide the SWF play button when printing an embedded PDF with a SWF

When I print the PDF there is a big play button over some text. Can it be hidden?
Is there are a way of resizing a SWF once embedded? It's a pain to work with.
Sometimes, although the SWF is transparent and embedded as transparent but when printed it buts a grey box behind.
Any ideas Adobe?

If the annotation isn't activated, you are printing the JPEG poster image instead - which doesn't have transparency. By default, poster images created from the media will have the play icon burned in, just choose your own image.

Playing Quicktime with Multiple Start End Points

Hello
I posted a message a few days which I received help on
regarding starting and ending a Quicktime movie from various points
in the movie. Now I have a new problem which I cannot fix at all..
Here is the problem:
I have a Quicktime movie on stage and 10 various buttons that
contain a generic script which allows input of start and end points
for each button to trigger the movie. Initially just doing this
with one button is successful.
However, multiple buttons all with the same generic code make
the movie freeze up completely. My guess is that they are all
fighting each other for control. Maybe I need something in the code
which allows the button that is being used to play the movie to
keep control.
Here is the code I use for each button, the movie is on frame
15.
property pQT,pStart,pEnd,pFrame, pVolume
on beginSprite me
sprite(me.spriteNum).color=rgb (255,255,255)
cursor 0
if integer(pQT).ilk=#integer then pQT=integer(pQT)
end
on mouseUp me
sound(3).volume=sprite(15).volume
sprite(15).volume=pVolume
sprite(pQT).movieTime=pStart
sprite(pQT).movieRate=1
cursor 0
end
on mouseEnter me
sprite(me.spriteNum).color=rgb (173,24,41)
sprite(me.spriteNum).cursor=280
end
on mouseLeave me
sprite(me.spriteNum).color=rgb(255,255,255)
sprite(me.spriteNum).cursor=0
end
on mouseDown me
sprite(me.spriteNum).cursor=290
end
on enterFrame me
if sprite(pQT).movieTime>=pEnd then
sprite(pQT).movieRate=0
end if
end
on getPropertyDescriptionList me
if not the currentSpriteNum then exit
vPDList=[:]
setaProp vPDList, #pQT, [#comment: "Which QT sprite",
#format: #integer, #default: 0]
setaProp vPDList, #pStart, [#comment: "Range start",

Many thanks Mike
Works fantastically.

ever so slightly from Mike's orginal for anybody wanting a nice
little behaviour for controlling a Quicktime movie.

In actionscript 3.0 how do i make a nested movie clip button go to a frame on the main timeline

I am making a website based in flash actionscript 3.0 i have a button nested in its own movie clip, because I have the button expanding to be able to read it i have figured out the only way to do this is by creating it as a movie clipa nd inside the movie clip creating it as a button
I added an event listener to the blog button by saying,
blog.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER,gotoblog);
function gotoblog(evtobj:MouseEvent){
gotoAndStop(2)
this part of the code works it goes to the 2nd frame of the timeline it is in and stops wich is a blown up version of the origanal symbol
i added on frame 2 a second command
blog.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK.gotoblogpage);
function gotoblogpage(evtobj:MouseEvent){
gotoAndStop("blogframe")
trace("the blog button was clicked")
i have named the symbol blog and have name the frame of where the blog page is going to be "blogframe" this line of code at the bottom is where i run into trouble the output window in Flash is saying "The blog button was clicked" just like i want it to. no errors are accouring why than is the playhead not going to frame "blogframe"? if the button is working when i click it the code is right i belive the problem here is it does not want the playhead to go to the frame i want it to. So i gues my question is, how can i make a button withing a movie clip interact with the main timeline?

I have a similar problem if could please help me i'd really apreciate it!!
So i have a looping animation of some thumbnails, the hierarchy goes like this
Scene1(main timeline) -> imgBar(MC)->imgBarB(MC within the imgBar MC)
My buttons symbols are in the last MC "imgBarB" where i have this code:
ss1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, OneButtonClicked);
function OneButtonClicked(event:MouseEvent):void{
MovieClip(root).gotoAndStop("ssbox1");
I want to control the Btns in my "imgBarB" MC to play a labeled frame(named "ssbox1") on another MC on the main timeline,this other MC goes like this:
Scene1(main timeline)->ssbox_mc(MC where my labeled frame is)

Export recorded slideshow, with embedded quicktime, to quicktime...

...doesn't capture the video.
I'm trying to export a Keynote '09 presentation, with recorded audio. The presentation also contains embedded quicktime video (a screencast). However, the resulting exported quicktime does not run through the embedded video (the initial video still is shown throughout the whole narration of the screencast). I'm using the "recorded timing" playback.
While its exporting, the Keynote preview actually shows screencast playing fine.
The embedded video plays fine when I export without the recorded audio.
Any idea what might be happening here?

Well i just found this and tried it, it worked
1) Go to export to QT as usual.
2) Click the second drop down (Formats) and select 'Custom...'.
3) A new window will pop up, click the 'Settings...' button.
My 'Compression Type' drop down was set to 'H.264'....I was told to
4) Change the 'Compression Type' to 'MPEG-4 Video.
(I do not think it is related to the fix being suggested or just as a preference, I was told to slide the Compressor - Quality slider on the bottom left to 'Best')
5) Click the 'OK' button on the bottom left
That window will close.
6) Click the 'Next' button and continue with your export.
Not sure why this works but it did. But i still cant do it the normal way.
