Mask a youtube video with shape

I'd like to embed a youtube video into my iweb page and then cover the controls and letterboxing with a mask to better match the theme of the page over all. Any ideas?
Thanks!

You can't. The shape will be behind the video. You probably discovered that.
Here's a solution. I use this video :
     http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FtJSM4Res2Y
Copy the share code and use it in a HTML Snippet.
To hide the controls, add a div with a height less the the video height and overflow hidden. To hide the top, use a negative margin :
<div style="height: 308px; overflow: hidden; margin-top: -35px;">
<iframe width="560" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/FtJSM4Res2Y" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
</div>
Don't bother about your visitor who is unable to use the controls.

  • HOW CAN YOU WATCH YOUTUBE VIDEOS WITH CC ON? THIS FRUSTRATES ME A LOT. THANKS.

    So, I am kinda confused. I searched around the net and all that, and I found out that there's this thing in setting where you turn on the "closed-captioning". So I turned it on and tried watching videos in YouTube but IT didn't work. Also, I remember one time that I can use CCin YouTube. it's weird.
    I remember that they said if the Cc were encoded in quicktimes you can see the CC but if it's flash you can't. So I figured it's impossible to watch YouTube videos with CC. However, if anyone knows another way to watch with CC on YouTube, tell me please. Thanks.

    Sorry, but I don't know if there is a way.
    Also, just to be picky....would you be kind enough to avoid using all caps in your title?

  • Problem watching Youtube video with Safari 5.1.10

    I'm running Safari 5.1.10 under Snow Leopard 10.6.8 but cannot watch anymore videos with Youtube. Does anyone has an idea ?
    A message appears on the top of the screen asking to accept cookies. But when clicking on accept nothing happens ... :-(  and videos do not appear
    I tried with Google Chrome no problem. Last week Safari was working well it just happened ~ 2 days ago.

    Hello Carolyn,
    Thanks for your support but I already tried those options without success. I reinstalled completely Safari 5.1.10 but problem remains.
    In fact it seems that clicking action to authorise cookies is inhibited (no effect) therefore videos as thumbtails do not appear (blank), however if I click on a video tittle then it starts to play normally. Really really weird, I don't if Google did some upgrade with Youtube therefore Safari 5.1.10 is obsolete ...
    As an alternative I will use Google Chrome but it's a pitty.
    Laurent.

  • How to control a YouTube video with buttons created with Edge Animate?

    I am able to embed a YouTube video by doing:
    var tubeCont = sym.$("tubeCont");
    var youtube = '<iframe  width="'+tubeCont.width()+'" height="'+tubeCont.height()+'" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/OCbrZvmLY0o?enablejsapi=1" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen ></iframe>';
    tubeCont.html(youtube);
    I have some buttons that go to another position on the timeline where a different object is shown. if the video is playing, it will continue playing even if the user cannot see it. Hence, I want to pause or stop the video.
    On the button clcik event I have tried:
    sym.getComposition().getStage().getSymbol("youtube").$getSymbol("player").stopVideo();
    sym.$("youtube").$("player").stopVideo();
    youtube.$("player").stopVideo();
    sym.getSymbol("youtube").$("player").stopVideo();
    sym.getSymbol("youtube").stopVideo();
    And other stuff, but I cannot make it doing waht I want.
    Any suggestions?

    Yes, I tried tubeConf, and it doesn't work either.

  • Embedding youtube video with CS4? {subject edited by moderator}

    I am trying to embed a youtube video using Dreamweaver cs4, but it seems to be missing a plugin. I have a flash on my laptop (pc). How do I get this to work to where it will show because all I keep seeing is a white or grey box when I embed the code. I've seen many videos of people doing it and theirs worked just fine, but mine will not load.

    Hello,
    in addition to Ken's hint, firstly, a general remark, please use a file type that the most of the users can view.
    What concerns embed a video, please have a look there (and other examples of w3schools.com) HTML YouTube Video

  • Am I allowed to monetize my Youtube video with speed painting using Adobe Photoshop software?

    Hello!
    I have a question regarding monetization of my Youtube video.
    If I record a speed painting done using Adobe Photoshop software, where the user interface is visible, can I monetize my video and commercially make money off of this? The focus of the Youtube video will be on the painting and not so much the Adobe Photoshop software (it is not a tutorial).

    We're all end users of Adobe products just like you but my reply is the same as Mylenium's.
    It won't be officially from Adobe unless you see an Adobe Staff badge next to the responder's name.
    It's highly unlikely that Adobe staff will respond in this forum.

  • Masking a video with shape

    Is there a way to mask a movie so I am just showing a part of the screen within a shape. For example, I want to just show the middle portion of the video..almost like cropping.
    Thanks!

    the only way to do this in Keynote is to use a full slide sized image that has a hole cut in it. You then lay that over the video and it appears to mask the video. This isn't too hard to do if you can get to the background image of your slide. Take that into Photoshop, make a hole in it and export that as a png file. Then drop that on your slide and put your video behind it.

  • Firefox add-on that opens YouTube videos with a native player

    Put this together today after getting fed up with YouTube's crappy player. It removes the player from any YouTube page and instead plays the video mpv. It also supports playlists if that's your sort of thing.
    Demonstration
    Source code and install instructions
    Hope someone else finds this useful.

    SirCmpwn wrote:mpv doesn't work well with a lot of videos, especially DRM'd ones. I originally made it go straight to mpv, but switched to the youtube-dl solution later.
    Ah, I've not yet had that problem. What exactly are the youtube credentials used for?

  • Using youtube video with iMovie

  • Downloading Youtube videos with Quicktime 7 Pro?

  • How to re-upload YouTube video with same settings

    I d/l'd a YouTube movie. When I opened it in iMovie, the dimensions and quality appeared (visually) to match what shows on YouTube.
    I made some edits (added some titles), and re-uploaded it following the instructions at https://www.google.com/support/youtube/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=165543 which say to
    [list][*]File -> Export -> Compress movie for: Expert Settings -> Share -> Export: Movie to QuickTime Movie -> Options
    [*]In the Video section select the following: Compression Type: H264; Frame Rate: 30; Data Rate: Automatic; (if you choose to restrict the Data Rate, make sure to choose the highest value acceptable to you- more bits = better quality); Key Frames: Automatic; Frame Reording: Unchecked
    [*]In the Video section click "Size": Dimensions: Set this to the original size of your video (Note: HD resolutions preferred- 1280x720 or 1920x1080)[/list]
    I tried both "Current" and "1280x720".
    [list][*]In the "Prepare for internet Streaming" section: Select the "Prepare for internet Streaming" and choose "Fast Start" from the drop-down menu.
    [*]In the Audio section, make sure that the audio codec is AAC. Always use ACC as the preferred audio codec.[/list]
    But when I upload to YouTube, the frame is both substantially shorter and narrower than in iMovie. Also, the video is much poorer quality (even after YouTube finishes processing it).
    How can I re-upload the movie with the same dimensions and quality as when it was downloaded?
    Thanks

    re-checking; ignore for now; thx

  • I want to monetary youtube videos with photoshop tutorials - where can I find the written authority to do so?

    Hi everybody.
    I would like to upload some tutorials videos about Photoshop and Dreamweaver to youtube but youtube is asking for the written authority to do so (What kind of content can I monetize? - YouTube Help). They say:
    "Whether you can show software user interfaces in a video submitted for monetization depends on the commercial use rights granted to you by the license of the software. In some cases, you may need a contract with the publisher or proof that you have paid a licensing fee."
    Where can I get the written document to proof that I can. I read the whole License agreement and could find nothing about thatr matter. Than for 1 hour I was searching a Adobe Mail Adderess to ask my question, but I only found here the forum. So I ask my Question to you now. Where can I find that I'm allowed to upload tutorial videos and monetary them.
    If you could help me this would be perfect.
    Greetings Miguel
