No loop/repeat feature for Videos - really?

I find it ridiculous that you cannot set a video to repeat. Hanging an iPad from the backseat to play episodes of Yo Gabba Gabba would make like a lot easier if ITunes could just make this simple feature happen. The workarounds are insane and I haven't got one to work yet...

And I've tried various video playlist apps to get around the problem but because the Yo Gabba Gabba shows were bought from iTunes, they are DRM protected and will not work with the apps.
So iTunes doesn't have the simple feature I need and won't allow its videos (sorry, I meant to say MY videos since I purchased them) to work with apps that add the feature - ridiculous!
Can an Apple rep chime in here please?

Repeat Function for Video?

Just got my ATV. Very cool. With an 8mb connection can watch the trailers in rediculously high quality playing on a 1080i monitor with no waiting. I'm really surprised. This is going to be big.
I was wondering if I am missing something or if there is no repeat function for video. Like, if you wanted to just have music videos playing in the background like you would music? Or, do you have to physically choose each show?

Anyone figured out if this is possible? Would be nice for kiosk, roadshow, window display type use if you could:
1) Set a piece of video content to loop or repeat.
2) Create a playlist of videos that would play one after the other without human interaction.
3) Randomly play videos from a playlist of videos without human interaction. (Similar to an audio shuffle function)
So far, trying a playlist in iTunes with video in it doesn't seem to work. The only place you can get at it in the Apple TV menu is through Music and then it errors saying there's no music in that playlist.
This would be great for digital signage applications too. You could set up the content you wanted in a particular playlist via iTunes and have the Apple TV sync/stream that particular content without having someone use the remote.
Doesn't look like there is any of this functionality built in at this point.

Is there a "play all" feature for videos on iphone4????

Is there a "play all" feature for videos on iphone4????

Hi Robin
Welcome to apple discussions. I use Toast (personal choice only) in this situation since it has a play all check box. But then you don't get the fancy menus.
Click Here
There is no such check box within iDvd for selecting play all but you can set up iDvd's preferences to address scene selection menus when a movie/s is added. And here's how you do that:
A second option might involve adding the 8 separate movies to the slideshow feature within iDvd for continuous play. And yes you can add photos as well as movies to idvd's slideshow feature with a number of added benefits which I won't go into here. But if you want more info on this procedure just look at a few of Old Toad's prior posts / replies on this iDvd forum.

Any sound management features for video?

I'm not finding any sound management features for the video part of PS
or anything in the help files yet either.
Anyone?
Thanks,
Steve Z

Nope. PS is still an image editing app. If you need to do any sound editing, you can find tons of tools out there, many of them free...

V1 academy app no longer offers trimming feature for videos after ios7 update, anyone know a fix?

After updating my iPhone 4S with iOS7, my v1 Golf Academy app no longer allows me to engage the trimming feature to trim my videos, anyone know how to fix this?

Thought I was the only who has this problem.... but I discover a little annoying trick:
1- Type YouTube in your search browser
2- Will redirect you to YouTube app > tap twice home button and force to quit YouTube app
3- Type again YouTube in your search browse > will showing "open this page in YouTube "Cancel or Open" > Cancel
4- Type again YouTube in your search browser > and be happy you did it!
Note: Always keep the same tab you open initially YouTube if you don't do this you have repeat the steps again.......
Sorry for the picture I did faster.
Have a good one!

"Auto Play" feature for Videos on iPod Classic 160Gb

I have a 160GB iPod Classic, that just came out about a year ago, and it is updated with the latest firmware (or so says iTunes). I’m also using iTunes 8. I have also gone through all the usual help desk diagnostic processes, the ones in which they assume we, the consumers, are MORONS and cannot do the basic "self-fixes" prior to contacting them +(I have reset, then restored the iPod and have the latest version)+. I am still having this issue.
With my original iPod Classic I scroll to Video and click on one of the show’s folders within it, and by simply pressing the PLAY button while the folder containing the videos is highlighted, the iPod Classic would play ALL videos within that folder. Now, with the remanufactured one they sent to replace my defected one, when I scroll to Video, click on one of the subfolders and press play, a blank “play” screen comes up and nothing else happens. No videos play and no sound. So now, instead of being able to play all within the folder, I have to open the show’s folder, and click on the individual episode and play them individually instead of having an “auto play” feature as before so that I could leave the iPod alone and do other things without having to bother with it.
Is there a fix to this? Thanks!

I am not sure if we understand each other. I knew about all the fields under "Get info" feature and I have filled all of them. The problem is that the movies are not sorted according those fields in the iPod! I mean I can easily see list of genres in the music section of my iPod. But you can never see the same in the movies section! The only list which is available for movies is list of all movies sorted by title. You cannot for example see all movies with selected artist. You cannot see all movies from compilation "Holidays 2008". You cannot sort movies by genre.... I mean you can do it in iTunes, but it has no influence on iPod.

Using the controller feature for video media (Flash Export)

I created an interactive file in InDesign with the hope of exporting it into flash to embed in my website. Everything works, except even though I have the controller set to on and to appear when you roll-over the window, the controller does not show up. The video is embedded using a URL, and the video will still play, but for some reason the controller feature just won't show up... Anyone have any ideas?

If you use video in your InDesign SWF, even one from URL, InDesign exports resources folder to the same place with actual SWF. Inside that resources folder there´s a skin of the video player you chose for you video. When you upload main SWF to your server, you need to upload that resources folder as well. Because if you don´t, flash player never finds that skin and therefore can´t show any controls...
Here´s a screenshot of my main SWF (videotest.swf) I exported from InDesign. Because I placed a video from URL there, InDesign created videotest_Resources folder and inside of it there is SkinOverAll.swf... If I want everything to work smoothly, I need to upload them all.

If QuickTime Player 7 isn't in the Utilities folder automatically, you can install it separately. See:

How can I repeat a for loop, once it's terms has been fulfilled???

Well.. I've posted 2 different exceptions about this game today, but I managed to fix them all by myself, but now I'm facing another problem, which is NOT an error, but just a regular question.. HOW CAN I REPEAT A FOR LOOP ONCE IT HAS FULFILLED IT'S TERMS OF RUNNING?!
I've been trying many different things, AND, the 'continue' statement too, and I honestly think that what it takes IS a continue statement, BUT I don't know how to use it so that it does what I want it too.. -.-'
Anyway.. Enought chit-chat. I have a nice functional game running that maximum allows 3 apples in the air in the same time.. But now my question is: How can I make it create 3 more appels once the 3 first onces has either been catched or fallen out the screen..?
Here's my COMPLETE sourcecode, so if you know just a little bit of Java you should be able to figure it out, and hopefully you'll be able to tell me what to do now, to make it repeat my for loop:

Great tutorial. When I build a timelapse I start by importing the image sequence and then make the proper frame size on export. Is there a benefit to creating a project at the proper frame size and rate first?
Thanks

Avoid repeating a 'for' loop 3 times

Any ideas how can I make my code more efficient by not
repeating the for loop 3 times within a script? Any tutorial links
or first hand experience – I’d be grateful for any
pointers:
1) First I use it to set up a drag n’ drop activity:
for (var i:Number = 0; i<words.length; i++) {
//set a var for the instances on stage:
var eachWord:String = "drag"+[i+1]+"_mc";
this[eachWord].word_txt.text = words
[0];
this[eachWord].onPress = function() {
startDrag(this, false, leftLimit, topLimit, rightLimit,
bottomLimit);
this[eachWord].onRelease =
this[eachWord].onReleaseOutside=function () {
this.stopDrag();
2) Then I use it in the part that makes it accessible by
keyboard:
function myOnKeyDown() {
for (var i:Number = 0; i<words.length; i++) {
var thisDrag:String = "drag"+[i+1]+"_mc";
if (Key.isDown …
ETC along with a listener object
3) I also have to use it in another function that the user
can call to toggle something on/off within each drag object.
Thanks in advance if anyone can help.

thanks for the reply! I actually figured out a different
(although probably less efficient) way to do it. I put David's
script just before the replay button and set it up like this:
stop();
gotoAndPlay(1);
if (!loopCount) {
var loopCount:Number = 0;
loopCount++;
if (loopCount >= 3) {
this.gotoAndPlay(359);
this was placed at frame 358, with the button placed at 359,
so after it looped 3 times it continued on to 359, showed the
button and stopped the movie there. again, not the most elegant but
it did the job

Feature request: Slideshow module support for video files

I'm very excited about your MTS support!
Feature request: Slide show module support for video files...
Say you have 10 takes to choose from. Are you able to almost like SLIDESHOW view the 10 clips full screen so you can decide, like a playlist? Or rate them as they play? It would also be great, like SLIDESHOW to be able to export a MP4 with a title, the 10 clips you are working with, and maybe add an end title and a song, just like SLIDESHOW.
I have found editing stills like this in slideshow far faster than in any other editing program.
Basically, I just need a fast means to view or export an MP4 of a set of video clips to review. You are almost there.
great job!!!
Max

I was also disappointed that video is not supported in the slideshow module -I currently have to use another solution when I want stills mixed with videos, would be great to be ablo to keep it all in LR!

Which configurations are really important for video editing?

Hi everyone,
I'm a newbie looking for the best compromise budget Mac for AVCHD 1080p video editing with Final Cut Pro X, Adobe Premiere CS6 and Adobe Aftereffects. The storage space is not important as I'm planning to keep all the files on a Thunderbolt-connected EHD (any comments on this?).
Currently, I'm working on a iMac 27'' 3.4GHz i7 16GB 1600 MHz DDR3 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 675 MX 1024 MB and would like to get a personal machine that also works (as) smooth, but for a smaller budget. These are the options I currently have:
1. Mac mini (late 2012) MD387xx/A
2.5GHz dual-core Intel Core i5
16GB DDR3 SDRAM
Intel HD 4000
500 GB HD
Thunderbolt USB 3
802.11n WiFi + Bluetooth 4.0
2. iMac 27'' (mid 2011)
2.7GHZ Intel Core i5
16GB 1333 MHz DDR3
AMD Radeon HD 6770M 512 MB
1TB HDD
3. MacBook Pro 17'' (early 2011)
2.3GHz Intel Core i7
8 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 RAM
AMD Radeon HD 6750M 1024 MB
Intel HD Graphics 3000 512 MB
500 GB SATA Storage
How important is the duo- or quad-core?
Which graphic card would be the best suited for video editing and graphics on FCPX/AfterEffects?
Which one would you go for if looking for a stable, strong performance for up to 5 years?
Thanks in advance for any tips!

I would also post here:

Feature request: Repeat Alert for Calendar

At some apps you are able to set "Repeat Alert", for example: 1 time, 2 times, etc.
But not for the "Calendar".
I have meetings and I don't want to miss them.
But now there is no possibility to have the alert until I push the home button or slide to stop...
How can I address it to Apple?
Thank you!

As I can see for example here: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2295319?start=0&tstart=0
Since TWO YEARS there is no feedback, no funcionality implemented by Apple
Sad, just sad! How they want to gain business users?

No loop/repeat feature for Videos - really?
