Move a movie into a frame before playing?

Am I correct that I can't move a movie into a frame, with a transition, and then have it start playing? (KN ver. 6) I tried to do it using a "move" action, but it always appears in the frame. Unlike a normal pic, it doesn't move in.
And, as I need to use "start movie" as the "build in" transition, and I'm only allowed one "build in" transition, I can't first make it move in with a move transition, then make it start.
I'll suggest some more flexibility to Apple.

Hi
Check out Videora Converter from Red Kawa. Works for me.

  • How prevent movie from loading completely before playing?

    Hi,
    how do I prevent an swf from loading completely before
    starting to play in the browser? When simulating a download in the
    Flash application, several preload stages work perfectly, but not
    in the browser. Preload stages don't appear, instead it takes ages
    for the 3.5 mb file to completely load before displaying the first
    frame of the movie.
    I have tried inversing the load order in export settings and
    different flash versions, but just can't get it to work.
    Can someone help? Thank you!

    hi kglad
    I thought it should be that way; the point is that I don't
    want to add code that loads the entire movie before starting to
    play the first frame, but only a certain number of frames (i.e. 11
    out of 35, for example). I'm trying to do this with this code in
    the first frame:
    ifFrameLoaded (11) {
    gotoAndPlay("start");
    in the simulation, it works perfectly, but when uploading the
    movie and viewing it in html, the entire thing loads, and the
    preloader doesn't appear.
    Many thanks for your help.

  • Creating a Simple Flash Movie With Poster Frame and Play/Pause Buttons

    Hi, It's been over a year since I played with Flash last, and
    I have completely forgotten everything I learned.
    I have a .flv file which I want to play on my website. It
    should display a poster frame when the page load, and not autoplay
    the movie. It should have the play button I made in photoshop
    sitting on top of the poster frame. When pressed, the movie should
    start playing and the button should be shifted for the pause button
    I made in PS (it should work just like the play/pause button in
    iTunes). When the movie has finished playing, it should jump back
    to the poster frame.
    I have tried using the flvplayback component and also played
    around with just embedding the flv directly and inserting a play
    and pause button from the common library, but I can't seem to get
    it to work. With the flvplayback component I have managed most of
    it apart from using my own buttons and getting the poster frame to
    work (which apparently has to be done with Action script).
    Any help appreciated.

    Which version of Flash/actionscript are you using? Since you
    are just starting out, you should read one of Adobe's tutorials on
    the matter. Either use Flash Help to find examples on how to use
    Flash or go to their website. Here is a great tutorial for someone
    just starting out. Make sure you read all three tutorials in "Using
    Flash for the first time".

  • Dividing large Flash Videos Movies into smaller ones that play in sequence

    I need to know how I can take a large flash movie and divide
    it into two or more smaller ones that play in sequence in order to
    speed up initial download time. I have the swfsequencer plugin but
    I do not know how to use it.
    Can anyone please help me with this?

  • How to add a swf movie into a frame?

    Hi guys. I have a pop up box that loads when a button is
    pressed. Within the pop up box I have placed a small swf file from
    the library. But when I preview this I only get a black outline
    where the swf file should be. Can anyone tell me what I am doing
    wrong?

    Is the movie in your library, and is the linkage set up to
    export for actionscript? Right click on the item in your library
    and select Linkage and check the this is checked. Remember that you
    have to reference the movie by it's Linkage ID, not symbol name.
    Unless you already have the item on the stage in the swf, in
    that case, you may have a stop in it before it can play. Sometimes
    it's a simple thing :)

  • How to split a movie into smaller segments before importing to iMovie 09?

    I got software from Roxio allowing me to get VHS tapes to the computer in the form of .mov. It was supposed to convert it for use with iMovie but it didn't work. So I'm using MPEG Streamclip converting it to DV. But it takes too many GB's. I need to break the alaska.mov to several smaller parts. I know this is simple but can anyone help? Thanks.
    Max

    thanks for your helpful suggestions. I opened the old VHS movie converted by Roxio VHS to DVD. It opened in Quicktime. I then trimmed it into more or less 4 equal parts, using the trim function in Quicktime. I then converted each part to DV using MPEG streaclip saving it to an external drive. I then used iMovie 09 to import it and create thumbnails. Now I'm ready to edit. I could have avoided all those steps by dragging it directly into Final Cut Express which I have, but this program is too complicated for me to learn.

  • HT1657 Do I have to wait for a rented movie to download before playing?

    I seem to need to wait for my rented movie to fully download before playing. Is this normal? I would have expected once the download has begun, for playing the movies to be possible. Any advice?

    Nope. If they have them in stock, then you can get one, and if they don't, try again later. No list.

  • Adding movie into a Keynote presentation

    Please can someone help! I cannot get a movie when added into a frame to play and close so that it continues into the next frame. I have set the build in as 'start movie', build out as 'stop movie' but when I play the presentation it gets to the video frame, flashes up for a second or two then onto the next frame. I have tried everything, different time settings, transitions, auto setting and click and still no joy. I basically want a 3 frame presentation that then flows into a 4 minute video and then into two further bullet point frames.
    *Can anyone help as its driving me mad!*

    With respect to the slide that hosts your video...
    Determine the desired length of video runtime.
    Select the video, use the "Start Movie" build-in, set to occur automatically after the slide transition.
    Add a shape to the slide with a build-in (type doesn't matter -- you'll be making the object transparent so it doesn't show) to occur automatically after the movie build-in; apply a 60-second delay (that's the maximum possible delay). Create a build-out for this shape, again to occur automatically after the build-in, and with another 60-second delay.
    Add a second shape to the slide and give it the same treatment as the first shape -- you will now have created a four-minute delay while your movie is running. Since you're now within reach of the end of your movie, place your "Stop Movie" build-out to occur automatically after the last of your shape build-outs, with a delay that makes up the remaining movie runtime.
    Finally, set the slide transition to occur automatically.
    Select the two (or three) dummy shapes and set their opacity to "0" using the Graphic Inspector, and Bob's your uncle.

  • Play frames before load movie??

    Hi,
    Im trying to create a motion where as when you select a object from the home page all the objects slide out and off screen before the new content loads.
    Ive got it set up so that it all loads into a swfLOADER. Is their a way that i can make it gotoAndPlay an out phrase before loading in the next content on the swfLOADER. I dont even know if what im trying to do is possible?
    Have not sucseeded so far as it just wipes the page before playing the out phase. Is their any way that i can make this work??
    currently got it saying on release gotoAndPlay "out" and then on the next line loadMovie "about"
    any ideas??
    Thanks in advance

    hey sorry for the late reply on this, ive only just got round to putting into place.
    Im strugling to get this aspect to work.
    I think my script may be wrong that im putting in the timeline (not very used to putting script on the time line)
    Any chance some help could be given as to what script to put on-
    The 1st frame so that when you click on a movieclip button it tells it to go to and play ("out")
    and secondly the script that i put at the end of the out section to tell it to play a certain movie into the SWFloader depending on which movie clip has been selected.
    Thanks in advance
    Been driving me barmy i either get errors or i dont get errors but it doesent work.

    wouldn't it make more sense that a flashtard is someone who
    just generally sucks at flash and asks idiotic questions?
    anyway, so i pretty much got the banner done - but i'm stuck
    on one problem. I made a motion clip of a heart, and i want the
    heart to fall from top to bottom, following a squiggly motion
    guide, and to rotate 1/4 turn on the way. I got it as far as
    following the motion guide, but when i try to select the instance
    in the first frame and rotate it, shouldn't the motion tween make
    it appear to slowly rotate, rather than stay put then rotate 1/4
    turn at the last frame? When I select the clip and play around with
    alpha and stuff, that works fine. What the heck?

  • How can I import a movie into iMovie 09 from a hard drive?  The movie will open and play in idvd but breaks into separate files that can't be downloaded when I try to import.  Can it be done?

    How can I import a movie into iMovie 09 from a hard drive?  The movie will open and play in idvd but breaks into separate files that can't be downloaded when I try to import.  Can it be done? I am trying to create a disc of player highlights for a collegiate coach, and I am using movie files downloaded to my hard drive from a DVD created on a PC. 

    No unfortunately it won't open in quicktime either.  It does the same thing that Imovie does, separates it into two file folders audio and video, and if i select video it opens to reveal 8 files that cannot be selected.  VIDEO_TS.BUP, VIDEO_TS.IFO, VIDEO_TS.VOB,VTS_01_0.BUP, VTS_01_0.IFO, VTS_01_1.VOB, VTS_01_2.VB, VTS_01_3.VOB.  All of which cannot be opened or selected.
    Opening it in Idvd and folllowing your suggestion works and I get a format code of NTSC.  Is that the same?  Thank you for your time and response.

  • When I move my mouse Itunes stops playing. This was happening before I installed latest version. I have installed latest version three times. First and install, then as a repair, and third time I unistalled Itunes and reinstalled i.

    when I move my mouse Itunes stops playing music. Sometimes this happens immediatly and sometime it take 10 to 15 sec.
    At various stages over the years, mouse-related iTunes trouble has been associated with driver conflicts. So it might be worth following up on that possibility.
    Head to the drivers and downloads page for your model of PC, and check to make sure you're not behind on any chipset and input-device-related driver updates. (And while there, just in case, also check to make sure your BIOS, sound-card/integrated audio, and video-card/display-adaptors are up to date.)
    If you're behind on anything, and you update, does that help with the mouse-related iTunes issues?

  • Quicktime 7 plays movie but skips frames

    Using Tiger and QT 7.1. The movie displays a frame then seems to jump forward. Seems to play 1 frame out of 30. These are fairly large movie files. Could Quicktime need more memory? If so I don't know how to access that.
    Thanks.
    Bill

    I just noticed what hardware Bill Graham1 lists as his Mac--a Power Mac 7300 running Tiger. He has to be using something like XPostFacto to get it to run on this older Mac. In any case, even if this 7300 has a processor board upgrade, it's not designed to handle Quicktime 7 video at a decent speed. I'd be interested to hear Bill's experience with Quicktime 6.5.2, under OS 10.3.x on his 7300--did it play movies at a normal speed? If so, then that would confirm he's seeing the Quicktime 7 bug, which is actually real--check some of the other posts in the Quicktime section from people with G4 Macs that are more than fast enough to play movie files using Quicktime 7, but who are seeing this problem, where other people with the same Mac model aren't, which indicates it's some sort of bug. My Mac, a G4 AGP at 500 mhz, played MPEG-1 movie files just fine, under OS 10.3.x, using Quicktime 6.5.2, but when I installed OS 10.4, which requires Quicktime 7, the same movie files now play for a few seconds, then stop; if I hit the Quicktime Player window's pause button, then press it again, the video starts playing at a normal speed, but only after skipping some frames, and then plays again for only a few seconds. If I keep doing this, the whole video plays, but that's not how it's supposed to work. The same thing happens when you run Quicktime Player 6.5.2 under OS 10.4.x--you can't run the Quicktime 6.5.2 installer under OS 10.4.x, but you can run its Quicktime Player application if you copy it from a Mac that has 6.5.2 installed--but it doesn't help, indicating the problem is something in the Quicktime 7 extensions, or a problem with some OS file(s) that affect Quicktime playback, at least with MPEG-1 files--I haven't tried any MPEG-2 files.
    If you play these same MPEG-1 files using VLC Media Player instead of Quicktime Player, they play with no pauses, on these same "slow" Macs. I don't think VLC relies on Quicktime software. This further implicates Quicktime 7 as the cause of the problem.

  • Trouble Combining 2 QT Movies Into One

    Help! I have QT Pro but this is driving me nuts! I am using select all, copy and then paste to combine 2 separate 20 second QT movies into one 40 second consolidated movie. The trouble is that when the play head reaches the beginning of the second movie, it continues to advance, but the sound and motion simply stop at the end of Move 1 and beginning of Movie 2.
    I think it may have something to do with the little tabs that slide back and forth for include, exclude but I'm not sure. Also, when I select all and then try to use the "Copy" command, its grayed out. I have to click on either one of the first or second movies before "Copy" becomes available to me. Something is going on but I can't figure it out, despite several hours of "playing with it", checking the forums here and calling Tech Support at Apple.
    Yikes! has anybody else run into this before?
    Sign me as visually impaired

    By the way, I think I got 2 of these cotton picken files to join together seamlesy last night. I need to kind of confirm that and (if I can double check and then replicate my success) will explain how.Would be interested in seeing the result. Streamclip should provide best results for two reasons -- 1) it allows "near" (if not frame-level) setting of in/out points (unlike QT which only operates at specific GOP intervals of MPEG-1/2 content and 2) it allows you to "fix" timecode breaks that can wreak havoc in QT playback.
    Normal procedure would be:
    1) Load, trim file segments if needed, and re-save raw files using the "Save as..." option in case of "accidents" later (I usually name the files so they appear in the order I wish to merge them) Don't have to do this but I tend to be "accident" prone
    2) Use the "Open Files..." option to navigate to your "safe" files and load them as a group to Streamclip work area
    3) Use "Fix timecode breaks" option (Command-F) to remove any possible timecode breaks between/within segments
    4) Use "Save As..." option again to save the "merged" data file
    You mentioned an interest in old TV shows, my favorite is Bonanza.My "biggie" is the original Doctor Who series. However, am also collecting the old Supeman (George Reeves) shows, The Avengers, Space Patrol, Commando Cody, Tom Corbett, as well as, things like the old Flash Gordon serials and SciFi "B" classic movies from the 50's and 60's.
