New ending for every download?

Is it possible for the Quicktime server to dynamically edit a Quicktime movie and make it available for download? For example, each time the movie is requested, it has a different ending...the difference being a new closing graphic has been appended to the end.
Thanks.

You would generate the "new" file by using server side includes to alter the text of the .smil file.
This is very complex to set up but you wouldn't have to create a new .mov file for each instance. Just a database, maybe an Automator "action" for the different image, and a method of uploading those files to your server.

  • A new socket for every http-request?

    Do I have to make a new socket for every http-request? The code below doesn't work because it is two requests in a row. The first GET works, but the second doesn't. I thought that the purpose of a socket is that you set it up once and then you should be able to do arbitrary communication between the two peers. Maybe that is just the case with sockets only but not if you use sockets to perform http.
    Thank you for your answers! Nice greetings from Austria (not Australia)!
    Stefan :)
    package httptest;
    import javax.net.ssl.*;
    import java.io.*;
    import java.net.*;
    public class Conn2 {
        private PrintWriter out;
        private BufferedReader in;
        private Socket socket;
        public Conn2()
            try {
             socket = new Socket("www.google.at", 80);
             out = new PrintWriter(new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(socket.getOutputStream())));         
             if (out.checkError())
              System.out.println("SSLSocketClient:  java.io.PrintWriter error");
             in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(socket.getInputStream()));
                System.out.println("Connect erfolgreich.");
         } catch (Exception e) {
             System.err.println(e);
        public void test()
            String inputLine;
            // 1. GET
            out.println("GET / HTTP/1.0");
         out.println();
         out.flush();
         try
                while ((inputLine = in.readLine()) != null)
                    System.out.println(inputLine);
            catch(IOException e)
                System.err.println(e);
            // 2. GET
            out.println("GET / HTTP/1.0");
         out.println();
         out.flush();
            try
                while ((inputLine = in.readLine()) != null)
                    System.out.println(inputLine);
            catch(IOException e)
                System.err.println(e);
    }

    Normally in the HTTP protocol, the server will close the connection after every request. So after you do the first GET, the server sends you the result and closes the connection. You have to open a new connection for the second GET.
    You can set specific headers to keep the connection open, which makes things faster if you have to do multiple GET's quickly after another. Lookup the specification of the HTTP protocol on http://www.ietf.org/
    Maybe it's easier to use a HTTP client library like Apache's HTTPClient: http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/httpclient/ so that you don't have to implement all the difficulties of the HTTP protocol yourself.

  • "A new folder for every project file"

    Aha!!  Right, from now on ... (thanks Steve)
    From the Muvipix.com Guide to Adobe PE11 by Steve Grisetti
    (p 36) [on starting and saving a new project]
    2     Click the Browse button to choose a location to save your new
    project file.
    We at Muvipix recommend always selecting the Browse option and,
    wherever you choose to save your file, creating a new folder for every
    new project file.
    This little bit of housekeeping keeps all of your new project's files in
    one neat, little folder. And, when your project is done and you want to
    clear it from your computer, you can then remove not only the project
    file but all of the temp, render and scratch disk files Premiere Elements
    has created for that project simply by deleting that single folder!
    This makes post-project clean-up a much easier and neater process.
    OK, hope I've got it this time (at last)
    cheers
    Brian

    Oh no!  I thought I’ll re-work that Canal video again, but this time saved the project from the very start in a new folder on an ext HD (500 GB) connected USB3.0.  Tried all sorts of things on it, saved each time in the same folder.   Cleared all 14 clips from Project Assets (which of course emptied the timeline).   Shut down PE11.   Checked via Windows Explorer that the project files were all on the ext HD – and by the way, there are no other files on it, just the PE files.  My understanding is that Advanced System Care Pro (Iobit) regularly defrags all my drives if necessary (tho’ I haven’t done this manually for months with this drive).
    OK, opened PE, went to Open Recent Projects, it shows the above .prel file and the entire path, I click on it and – 
    Weird, just weird
    Nil desperandum

    Edited --- and another weird thing, my email isn't sending the complete message I type to this forum.   I sent a whole message once and it never appeared, but this time it's cut off half a sentence above (it did this before, earlier today).
    That sentence should read,
    OK, opened PE, went to Open Recent Projects, it shows the above .prel file and the entire path, I click on it and – nothing happened!   (You'll have gathered that's what happened, but I wrote it in my Windows Live Mail, sent via BT-Yahoo ISP ......... )  Hey wait, there was a whole lot more.
    Here's a copy / paste from Windows Live Mail outbox
    It’s so odd, because as I said previously, most of the time it works so well, does all the things it’s supposed to do.   I followed Steve’s instructions here to the letter.   By the way, as you know, it’s not just the ext HD, this has been happening all along with allowing PE to save everything in its default Folder 11.
    I would be – now – very sorry indeed to have to abandon PE11 simply on this account, but it’s causing me to waste such a lot of time.   (Let alone the expense of buying it, plust one Lynda.com course, plus 2 books – not forgetting that I’d previously tried the Corel software and bought a book and DVD for that too!!)
    Might just use – what’s that simplicity-itself thingy everyone uses who just want to get any old kind of thing up on You Tube ..........   Oi vey!! <<more weary sigh>>

  • New instance for every request to Servlet

    I want to create new instance for every request to Servlet ...
    I am running my servlet on weblogic

    Hi!
    what functionality can there be that has to be put into init()?
    Another idea:
    why not include your needed functions in a private method within the servlet and call this method from init() and from doPost/doGet so it is processed any time the servlet is called?
    btw: more instances of the same servlet seems to me as going back to the roots (cgi).

  • How to generate a new rhread for every request

    Hello,
    I'm trying to write a server side program that does the following, recieves a Single connection from a client, client sends a request to the server side program, the server side program sends to a third party(back end) and waits for a reply.
    The problem i am facing is the following, I want to for each message(request) recieved from the Client to generate a new thread and establish a new connection with the third party, I have tried creating a new thread for the communication with the third party, in this case if the response from backend takes time I will still be able to recieve other requests from the client. But I dont know how to return the message that his been to the Father thread. The reason why I am doing this is that I dont want the same thread that recieves the request from client to wait until the reply for the previous thread is sent.
    Here's the code which I have been trying to implement.
    ClientCommunicator {
    Socket soc= new Socket(IPAddress,port);
    Thread backEndComm= new Thread (new BackEndCommunicator
    (soc,"Message To Back End"));
    backEndComm.setPriority(8);
    backEndComm.start();
    public class BackEndCommunicator implements Runnable
    Socket socket;
    String messageToBeSentToBE= "";
    public BackEndCommunicator(Socket socket, String messageTOBE)
    this.socket= socket;
    messageToBeSentToBE= messageTOBE;
    public void run()
    PrintWriter outtBackEnd= null;
    BufferedReader innBackEnd= null;
    String replyFromBE= "";
    try
    outtBackEnd= new PrintWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(socket.getOutputStream()));
    outtBackEnd.println(messageToBeSentToBE);
    outtBackEnd.flush();
    innBackEnd= new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(socket.getInputStream()));
    replyFromBE= innBackEnd.readLine();
    How can I return the String "replyFromBE" to the ClientCommunicator class so it can be sent to the client as soon as recieved from the back end.
    regards,
    [email protected]

    I assume the problem you are having is that your ClientCommunicator thread is blocking in a read and has no way of receiving notification from the other thread. Seems like you have a couple options at least.
    1. Use non-blocking IO and a selector to do service both the client socket and the backend socket. Usually, NIO is more of a pain than it is worth unless you need to service hundreds of connections at once, but I think that in this case where you know that there are only two connections it might be easy enough to use.
    2. A second option would be to avoid blocking on the read by using the available method on the input stream to first determine if you can actually read anything. This would allow you to wait with a small timeout on a monitor that the backend communicator could notify when it receives a response. This is not the ideal solution because you are limiting how fast you respond to the client and could be using more cpu time than necessary. However, it might be a lot easier to implement and could be adequate for what you need.
    First solution is more elegant but potentially not worth the trouble. Second solution is less elegant, but may be good enough.

  • Opinion: new Package for every new custom Component?

    Hi there,
    I am just thinking of some possibilities to structurize my Components I made.
    I wonder if it is useful/good programming to define a new package for each new custom Component?
    So if I define a new MyComponent class extending JFrame should I make a new package:
    "mycomponent"
    containing these subfolders:
    "view"
    "model"
    "controler"
    subfolging "controler" in:
    "listeners"
    "adapters"
    "events"
    Is there any sense to do so? I think this would be the best way to structurize one's components.
    But if you do, you have to include millions of packages if you want to use one of these components :(.
    Please post, what you think.
    Thank you
    Sincerely
    Karlheinz Toni

    nope ;). I would most certainly not want to put every file in a single directory.
    But I like sturctured things. If things belong to each other, it should be visible at once, that they have something to to with each other. And the best method I can figure you is putting them in one package.
    The subpackages should be created, because of the model, that is used for all swing componentd (UI-delegete, MVC...) so that each structural component is where it belongs to.
    I don't like it if tere are 100 events one object could possibly create and you don't know the events from the component (of course you can guess by the name Event :)), but if they are in the same package, you would have to scroll a long way to get the thing you want (either m, v or c).
    So this is why I would do it ;).
    Anyway: do includes make the program run slower (I have read many threads about it, but there are way to many opinions, so I would be grateful if you post your opinions here, thx ;).
    Thanks for your answer,
    Sincerely
    Karlheinz Toni
    p.s.: why wouldn't you put them in a seperate directory (just overkill?), would you use classes that are structured like this if you are looking for a implementation of something and find it in this structure?

  • Time Lapse import creates new clip for every frame!

    I shot a time lapse film - five hours reduced to 4 minutes ie one frame every 4 seconds. The iMovie Import wizard created a separate 'Clip' for every frame, (which is unusable), and then crashes the program every time I try to open it, I guess because there are too many 'Clips' to handle.
    Is there a way to import these discontinuous shots as a single clip? If iMovie can't do it, any ideas on a better way? I couldn't get Quicktime Pro to do any better - it opened thousands of separate windows on the desktop.
    Fortunately, the original is on DV, though each frame has a different time stamp on it.
    Thanks for any ideas!

    FYI
    I found that iMovie 6 was able to handle the multiple files and I could export them as an MPEG4 file. iMovie 08 bombed big time.

  • NOT specify new DataSource for every new stored procedure?

    I'm in a solution where I'm having multiple reports, and I want to create my reports one at a time, create a stored procedure for it, then create a report for that stored procedure, then go on to the next report in the same way.  The problem is that
    in Visual Studio, the DataSource does not update to recognize the new stored procedure, so I have to keep creating a new data source each time.  Is there any way around this so I don't have to create a million data sources?

    Hi jiwakersm,
    I will answer your questions one by one:
    Report Builder vs Report Designer:
    • Report Builder is available in two versions: stand-alone and ClickOnce. The stand-alone version is installed on your computer by you or an administrator. The ClickOnce version is installed automatically with SQL Server 2012 Reporting Services (SSRS)
    and downloaded to your computer from Report Manager or a SharePoint site integrated with Reporting Services.
    • Report Designer in Business Intelligence Development Studio is a report authoring environment that is hosted in Microsoft Visual Studio.
    If we want to
    create an .rdlc report file, we should use ReportViewer control in an application project or a Web site. If we want to open an .rdlc report file, we should open the project or web site in Visual Studio. Note that Report Builder and Report Designer are not
    included in Visual Studio.
    As to the Report Data pane, we should click one report in the Solution Explorer, then select Report Data after clicking View button in the menu pane. The document said that “create a data source reference, and then select the new option.” means we should
    create a shared data source in advance (we can create it in Solution Explorer), then use it as data source. If you are create .rdlc report in Visual Studio, we couldn’t create shared data source. But we can create one data source, then use it to create several
    reports in the same project.
    Hope this helps.

  • App Store asks for password for every download

    Sometimes I download a few apps at a time but every time I am asked to type in my iCloud password. Why?
    I have not exited the App Store app on my iPhone, I'm still in the same session, I've just looked around for just a couple of minutes more before I select the download button for another app... only to get the iCloud password window. Again.
    Surely doing it once should be enough. Surely not having to do it at all because it's MY iPhone should be ideal.
    Is there a way to control this?

  • Adobe Form - Print page at the end for every record of a Z table with Text

    Hello friends, I am facing a challenging here and I need to develop the following below. Mind you, I don't have much exposure/experience with Adobe Forms
    Scenario: Standard REAL ESTATE Contract Form
    I have a Z table containing RENTAL OBJECTS, in my case 3 records and I want, at the end of the form print one page like below to each record that i have in my Z table.
    "Dear Z-field1 one, regarding your contract for Z-field2, Address Z-field3, blah blah blah"
    In essence, print a page for each one of them at the end, with the text above using the fields from the z table.
    I searched the forum and couldn't find any thing like it.
    If someone can help it would be much appreciated.
    Thanks, Marco

    Hi Marco,
    You must be having the ztable fields in the context or in the data heirarchy of the adobe form.
    Assume that your main form is on the page1.
    Create a table bound to ztable with 3 rows in it and make it invisible on the form.
    Below the form create 3 pages page2, page3 and page4.
    Create a ISR text display and on the initialise event write the code such as:
    this.rawValue = data.page1.Table2.Row1.Cell1.rawValue;
    Create as many ISR texts as you want and initialize it using the above method.
    Page1
    form
    Page2
    Row1 values
    Page3
    Row2 Values
    Page4
    Row3 Values
    Hope this helps.

  • Published to folder iWeb site always using Times New Roman for every piece of text in published site and not showing the original text style used when building the site in iWeb.

    Dear All
    Hello from rainy, windy and cold North East England! I need to ask for your help as I'm new to iMac and new to iWeb and it's frustrating the life out of me!
    I'm just beginning to build a website for my business. Previously, I used Frontpage, but it's been that long since I used it - I've forgotten half of it and so, I'm using iWeb instead as it's silly to use an iMac for business but a PC laptop for the website design.
    I've got the background image I want on the homepage (beautiful image of a rain forest - even if I do say so myself!) and I'm trying to enter a text box at the lower half of the screen, in the centre of the page saying 'click to enter'. I type in the text, I edit it so as to change it to the font style of my company (Gill sans MT) and then I publish the site to a folder so that I can see what it would look like when viewed via the internet. When I do this - the font changes size to a bog standard size of 'so small you need a magnifying glass to read it', it changes colour from black to purple (which looks disgusting) and it changes font style from Gill Sans MT to Times New Roman.
    It doesn't matter if I delete the entire site and start again or delete the text box, and insert a new one. I've googled this subject until I'm blue in the face and I can't find an answer - can anyone suggest anything that will help?
    Many thanks for your help,
    Best wishes,
    Sean.

    Try the following:
    delete the iWeb preference files, com.apple.iWeb.plist and com.apple.iWeb.plist.lockfile, that resides in your Home() /Library/Preferences folder.
    go to your Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete its contents.
    Click to view full size
    launch iWeb and try again.
    NOTE: If you don't use  Web Safe Fonts any computer that does not have that font installed  will substitute another font for it and change the look and feel of the web page.
    So it's safest to use one of those web safe fonts.
