Pausing/stopping point ref.

I have 28 .mov files created in QT 7.6. These videos will be viewed on our website for certain accounts. I want to be able to get the place/time someone stops or pauses a movie, like Netflicks. I want to be able to start the movie from the place they last stopped so they didn't need to start over. (I assume I would use a cookie and update it with the video name and starting/stopping place.)

Set the audio options on "stream" for the timeline. Then - a blank keyframe would do just fine. When you need the audio on, put it again and adjust the start point in the properties panel.

Partial solution to the "Video on Demand won't resume from paused/stopped point" issue

I don't know if there's a better place to post this...if so, plmelt me know.
I had the same problem - here's what seems to be working on my system (DVR model # QIP7232-P2).
If you're watching an on demand show, and wish to exit the show, but resume watching later at the point where you left off:
1. While your on demand content is playing, press the 'GUIDE' button on your remote. This should bring up the TV programming guide, with 'FiOS On Demand' showing as channel 900. Your on demand show should still be playing in the small box on the screen.
2. Use the number buttons on the remote to enter another channel, hit 'OK' to move the guide to that channel, then hit 'OK' again to change the TV to that channel.
This should save the on demand show at the approximate location (+/- 1 minute) where you stopped watching, and allow you to view other content (live TV; DVR recorded shows). When you're ready to resume watching the on demand show:
3. Bring up the On Demand menu (tune to channel 900 -OR- press the 'MENU' button on the remote and scroll down to VOD -OR- press the 'ON DEMAND' button on the remote).
4. Navigate to the show you were previously watching.
5. Hit the 'OK' button on the remote, and select 'Resume Play' from the option menu. This should resume the show within 1 minute of where you left off.
Again, it works on my DVR model, and so far, I've only tried it on the free network TV shows, but I don't see why it shouldn't work on other models/program types

This has worked for me to get a VOD to resume. Instead of selecting the video directly and pressing resume, try going to MY LIBRARY under the VOD menu and then MY RENTALS. Video should be there and every time I have done this the resume function worked. IMPORTANT - It won't if you try it from the normal selection method before going to MY LIBRARY as this resets the position flag to the beginning.
As with all unofficial "fixes" YMMV

Why does my playhead return to the initial position when pausing/stopping playback after playing from beginning?

How do I prevent the playhead from returning to it's original position after pausing or stopping with the spacebar or k button? With either the skimmer on or off, whenever I pause or stop the **** playhead will always return to the position it was last at. I don't understand why neither of the shortcuts would just stop the playhead at the point that is being played at. This may seem like an extremely edgy way to go about editing, but I might actually wish to pause the playhead at any given moment and position my playhead nearby said moment before creating an edit point (without having to add a marker and return to it with the blade tool, or take note of the specific duration and use the duration control to go to that specific point or any other unnecessary steps when doing a rough cut). I simply would like the playhead to pause/stop at the moment I press either keyboard shortcut. After the many attempts at trying to make FCP X work for me and the many "workarounds" by FCPX enthusiasts, it's disheartening to know that most other editors in my circle who make a living doing paid commercial work are wondering why I've decided to take a break from using CS6 (and it's integration with the industry-standard AE) to give FCP X a shot, all to make very simple tasks like the one aforementioned a mystery... any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your response Luis and for your previous help (regarding multiple selections being added to the timeline in reverse order when working in list view in the event browser).
Yes i've trashed my preferences, but I should be more specific as to what I am actually doing. Because I am working from my macbook pro and do not have a "home button" which was the original shortcut to "play from/go to beginning" and because I did not like the replacement shortcut in FCP X to play from beginning (without a home button it was something like Function + Shift something else on a laptop) I became used to Adobe Premiere CS6 and made the return key my "play from beginning" shortcut. It was available and did not have a use by itself (only to confirm changes/choices), did not effect it's use in conjunction with other shorctus so I choose enter as my "play from/go to beginning"...
So when I play from the beginning and attempt to pause or stop the playhead, regardless of how I choose to do it (spacebar or k) it does not stop at that specific instance and always returns to where it previously was. This seems very confusing and inconvenient, I would hope at least one of these shortcuts would actually stop the playhead where it was at that moment where I press stop or pause. It's extremely frustrating knowing that I cannot pause the playhead where it's playing if I choose my "play from beginning" shortcut.
Also since you seem to be a guru and an expert, i'd like to know if you cut with FCPX on a laptop and what shortcut you use whenever you'd like the playhead to go to the beginning of the timeline, end, etc since there are no "home" or "end" buttons on a laptop....
Thanks a million, talk soon...

Adding stop points; complete newbie question

I like to download lectures from the internet. they come in as one long file. If I take them into Garageband can I add stop points every 10 minutes or so? I want to be able to make a CD with those stop points so it is easier to go back and forth to different points in the lecture.
Richard

you can add markers by showing the podcast track, then when you burn it to CD with GB you'll be able to jump to the different points.
(for more info search for "marker" in GB's help")

How to pause/stop updates from App Store on iPad?

Currently, I am on holiday making use of a prepaid mobile Internet connection. By accident I pushed the button "Update All" in the App Store.
Then it started downloading 18 apps and consumed more then many MB's in just a few minutes. My prepaid Internet is just 2GB for a month.
Now because of this within 2 days I consumed 1.1GB. After my error by pushing the wrong button, it could not be stopped what so ever.
This is very annoying and cost me in 10 mins at least 20 Euro's. Why does Apple not support a pause/stop button? Or did they just forget to include this button in their App Store app? I was pretty up-sat. You recognize you pushed to wrong button, you see all the apps starting downloading loads of MB's. but you cannot find any button to stop it. You can't do anything about it and just let it happen and hope the damage is not too high.
Please Apple, develop a pause/resume/cancel button in the App Store when someone accidentally pushed the "update all" button !!!!
Many thanks in advance.
With kind regards,
Jan van Duuren

Try to force shutdown holding home button and lock.button at the same time

Ken Burns start and stop points

In iMovie, when using the Ken Burns effect how can I set the start and stop points to be the same? I don't want to just use "Crop" because my understanding is that using the Ken Burns effect will result in a clearer still photo.

The renderer that is used when the Ken Burns effect is on does give a clearer still photo when converted to video. On an older version of iMovie I could set the startpoint and then use a key-sequence that was a shortcut to set the endpoint to be the same as the startpoint. I was hoping there was a similar feature with the newer version of iMovie. Then I wouldn't have to adjust the start and stop rectangles for a 100 photos.

How do I make a final stop point?

My half hour video publishes at over one hour. I think it is because cannot remove excess blank time at end of the timeline. How do I make a stop point? (The clip tool doesn't work at the end.)

I tried a couple of case combinations, and this one seems the most solid. Still, the while loop is not passing information.

Previewing edits and start/stop points

OK, so I'm still new to this program (I've worked with ProTools and Cakewalk, but this is a bit different), so please bear with me. I'm trying to sample and adjust the different plugins for a track, but I'm running into trouble on two different fronts, thus two different questions:
1. Is there any way for me to preview any adjustments I make to the plugins before I implement them into the automation? That way, if I feel like something is wrong, I can simply re-adjust without having to rewrite the automation?
2. How do I select specific starting and stopping points within the track while editing and doing automation? As in, when I press stop twice, it goes back to a specific point in the song (as opposed to the beginning).

Hey Onigami,
we talked about last week here.
Why don't you run the plug-ins on several busses and do a volume automation on the bus?
2. when you see the (yellow line - volume) (press V on seleted track) click on the line with the cursor to add points (dots) then drag them.
Press the loop tool or simply press and drag with the mouse up in the measure bars numbers (light green line) and it loop over the selection.
to resume from the beginning press return, if you don't have the punch in or loop engaged (both green) when you press the space bar twice it should resume from where it stoped, if any of these are on it allways start from the selected point.
Best regards,
Jorge

When updating iPhoto, a pop up said "pause", stopped the update and this is where iphoto now is stuck. How do I get it unstuck?

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
If you were updating iPhoto from the App Store, open Launchpad and click your iPhoto icon, so download should continue. If it doesn't work, restart your computer, delete iPhoto and install it again

Setting Stop Points in Javascript - JDev 10.1.3EA

I'm working on an AJAX project that I'm porting into JDev. I've got several utility javascript files that do all the 'heavy lifting' for me, but I'm having problems with Jdev not seeing the libraries. For example, if I set a break point in any of the scripts, I get the message "Unable to set breakpoint (...\login.js 6), unable to resolve Java package." At run time one javascript calls another one, but Firefox reports that it can't resolve the reference. All my javascripts are saved into the same folder in the project, right alongside the main html page and are visible in the Applications Navigator.
So, I have a few questions:
1. Does JDev not support stop points in javascripts?
2. Is there something special I need to do to ensure that different javascripts see each other inside the same application?
3. Is there a handy-dandy how-to that I haven't come across that deals with this?
Thanks!

Thanks, Frank - I have checked, and that makes sense, as the sample bundle (the one where the editor doesn't work properly) has different versions of the tag libs in the project.
WOW - is this the first semi-official announcement of the impending 10.1.3 release? shiver-me-timbers!

Using default CS5 skin, play/pause & stop buttons disabled until going fullscreen

We are using default CS5 skins with an flvplayback component built through action script 3. When playing certain videos (and only certain videos, however there isn't yet a pattern), the play/pause, stop & seek buttons are completely unresponsive. They don't change stats on hover & they are unclickable.
However, the fullscreen button does always work, and upon going fullscreen and coming back out, the buttons now work again.
I really have no idea what is going on here, it seems rather random. So far, the problem was seemingly at its worst displaying a video that was encoded with Sorenson spark (an older codec) and we wondered if it had to do with the file itself, the headers, anything of that sort. But the fact that the skin and buttons work fine once entering and exiting fullscreen - that is perplexing.

Just an update, but the following line:
my_FLVPlybk.scaleMode = "noScale";
Has something to do with the issue. When we include this line (which tells the player to resize to the size of the given FLV), we get the problem with the buttons not working. If we take the line out, we do not see that problem.

Can a Lightroom adjustment brush draw a straight line by clicking the start and stop points?

Can a Lightroom adjustment brush draw a straight line by clicking the start and stop points?

I agree it would be useful. It's something that's been asked for. The best thing is to keep requesting at the Lightroom feature request forum

Multicamera Editing in CS4: Start / Stop Points Lost

I'm working on a larger project. I'm using multicamera switching in my sequences.
When I set a start and end point in my sequence, and then make a change in the Multi-Camera Monitor Window, the start/stop points are lost, and I have to find them again. This is extremely irritating, especially when the the project is in an advanced stage.
What was Adobe thinking in designing this behaviour, and what can I do about it?

I suppose for now, I'll just change the camera in the clip's context menu, but you'd think there'd be a more mature way to handle this.

Pause/stop a youtube video

It seems this question has been asked before with no definitive solution, so I thought I'd try my luck.
Here's how the video is embedded on compositionReady:
var youtubevid = $("<iframe/>");
sym.getSymbol("intro2").$("videoContainer").append(youtubevid);
youtubevid.attr('type','text/html');
youtubevid.attr('width','387');
youtubevid.attr('height','218');
youtubevid.attr('src','http://www.youtube.com/embed/qHxn1_2KfCU?enablejsapi=1'); // url/Video_Id
youtubevid.attr('frameborder','0'); // 1 | 0
youtubevid.attr('allowfullscreen','0'); // 1 | 0
I understand that in order to play/pause/stop a youtube video, you have to go through the API:
https://developers.google.com/youtube/iframe_api_reference#Functions
It looks like the function I would want to use here is:
player.pauseVideo();
So here are the two methods I've tried with no success:
youtubevid.pauseVideo();
sym.getSymbol("intro2").$("videoContainer").youtubevid.pauseVideo();
Any suggestions? Thank you.

I figured out how to reset the Youtube video upon hiding thanks to FigFrance's contribution to the thread found here:
https://forums.adobe.com/message/4979969#4979969
The secret was adding .empty() to my video container. Here is my functioning button code:
Show Video:
//code to embed youtube into symbol
var youtube = $("<iframe/>");
sym.$("video").empty().append(youtube);
youtube.attr('type', 'text/html');
youtube.attr('width', '640');
youtube.attr('height', '360');
youtube.attr('src', 'https://www.youtube.com/embed/MyFv6UKsW70?rel=0');
youtube.attr('frameborder', '1');
youtube.attr('allowfullscreen', '0');
// Show an element
sym.$("video").show();
Hide Video:
sym.$("video").empty();
// Hide an element
sym.$("video").hide();

Playing, Pausing, Stopping Audio in a Timeline

I don't use Flash that much so the question may sound simple, but how do I pause audio in a timeline? I have added the audio, play and stop button. When I test it works fine, but I can't figure out how to add the pause button, or the play/pause button.
Thanks.

Set the audio options on "stream" for the timeline. Then - a blank keyframe would do just fine. When you need the audio on, put it again and adjust the start point in the properties panel.
