Placing a hidden video in indesign cc

Hi there, I am building a single edition iPad app with inDesign CC. Is there a way to have a video hidden on a document  that is then triggered by a button so that the video opens full screen on an iPad? I have tried using states but I am obviously doing something wrong. Or is it not even possible?
Many Thanks
Gav

I placed them after editing in premiere pro and exporting out as H.264 for ipad2 match source at 640 x 360px..... the original video was downloaded from a you tube channel. Cannot get it to allow me to insert a screen shot. The insert image button is greyed out. When I place the video within the document it has these white diagonal lines across the area of the frame that stay even if I activate poster none?

  • Linking Video in Indesign CS5.5

    Hello,
    I'm getting an error message of "The URL must reference a file that is compliant with flash player when trying to incorporate a linked video into Indesign CS 5.5. Why am I getting this error message? I would like to export the file as an interactive pdf.
    Thanks.

    So it sounds like you're trying to stream a video stored on a server, correct?
    Here's the way the URL must be written:
    "The URL must point to a file that ends in the appropriate file extension; for example, http://www.fakeURL.com/videos/Intro_Video.f4v for a file on a web server. Use rtmp:// in the URL for a video on the Flash Media Server or Flash Streaming Service."
    This is from an article I wrote for InDesign Magazine on placing video into InDesign.

  • Embedded video in Indesign won't play

    Hi all,
    I've been playing with InDesign for the last 8+ hours on trying to figure this out and hoping somebody here on this forum is smarter than me. I have embedded a video (it's a flash video) in my InDesign file - a magazine. I'm testing the page to make it work before exporting the whole file, but so far am stuck on this one problem.
    I save the spread as a flash file and when the file opens from my C: the movie plays and everything is copacetic.
    When I go to load the file to my FTP, not only is the movie not playing, but it's not even loading. I placed the video in Indesign at 100% and as I mentioned, when I open the file locally, it works fine. The minute I try to import it online .. zip.
    Here is the link for the test page: http://www.bakidsmagazine.com/page19.swf.
    I appreciate any and all help you can give me on this. I've looked online for answers but couldn't find it.
    My e-mail is [email protected] if you need me to send you any files.

    InDesign does not embedd videos... when you export your SWF, ID creates a Resources folder for all the media assets. You have to upload that folder to your server too. If you don´t, Flash Player doesn´t find your videos, sounds or places SWFs...
    Here´s a screenshot from Safari´s activity window:
    It seems that you are publishing a magazine. If you want to get some extra features like zooming for instance, check out http://www.edocker.com

  • InDesign CS6 Crash on placing a file on to indesign document  , Crash Report is attached .

    Hi ,
    InDesign CS 6 is working fine in Mac mini and in MacBookPro it always crash on placing a file on to InDesign Document .
    Crash Report : http://pastebin.com/fUPiYd0c
    I have tried :
    1) uninstalling and reinstalling CS 6
    2) Using with different accounts including admin
    3)Troubleshooting as below mentioned  :
    a)  Trash preferences   (cmd-opt-shift-control while starting InDesign) "
    Either corrupt preferences (as above), or perhaps the permissions on the folders that contain the preferences are such that InDesign can't properly write to them. ( it sometimes does happen).
    b) Deleting the below folders: Before deleting the below directories/files please take a backup(just for safe).  Quit In Design and  try removing the  following directories/files (InDesign will re-create them at start up):
    ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe InDesign CS5.5
    ~/Library/Caches/Adobe InDesign
    ~/Library/Caches/com.adobe.InDesign
    ~/Library/Preferences/Adobe InDesign
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.adobe.InDesign.plist
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.adobe.InDesign.plist.lockfile
    ~/Library/Saved Application State/com.adobe.InDesign.savedState
    Note:  The user Library directory is hidden under MacPro/Lion. You can get there in the Finder by holding down Option and then going to the Go menu (other ways are fine too).
    Please let me know if i am missing something .
    Thanks in advance ,

    Thanks Peter this definitely helps me , let me validate and come back to thanks again .

  • Embedding video in InDesign for a PDF output

    I've been trying to embed videos in InDesign to output them as a PDF with video.
    I've followed the tutorials but the final PDF has only the poster frames — they won't play.
    One thing I have noticed is that the tutorials say to choose "Object>Interactive>Movie Options.
    When I open the Interactive menu, no such options appear; only references to buttons. I have tried it in different workspaces: Interactive, Advanced, and Interactive For PDF. Same result in all of them.
    I have the latest Indesign and Quicktime.  I have tried embedding both H.264 and flash videos. Same result for all.  I also tried exporting as "Interactive PDF" which is worse — even the poster frames don't appear.
    What am I missing?

    You need to export as PDF (Interactive) and you also need to view the PDF in Reader or Acrobat 9 or later.

  • How can I get text to appear over my placed or pasted images in InDesign CS6?

    I am new to InDesign and am having a few issues. I have a basic template for a site that I have built in Illustrator. I have placed the design into an InDesign document (I have tried both copy/paste and the Place feature). When I try to use InDesign to overlay text on top of the image, it shows up fine whenever I export to an image file. However, when I export to HTML, the text gets pushed directly underneath the image in web browser (it's visible, but shows on white space below my desired template). Is there any way to fix this? I have already tried enabling "Ignore Text Wrap" on the text frame and the text itself is set to the front of the document. Thanks!

    InDesign is not a web authoring tool. If you’re expecting text to simply overlay a graphic in export HTML from InDesign you’re going to be highly disappointed.
    I’ll make the assumption you know nothing about web authoring tools and HTML/CSS. I suggest you look into Muse.

  • When placing a Illustrator file in Indesign, the Illustrator file sometime changes from 100%.

    When placing a Illustrator file in Indesign, the Illustrator file sometime changes from 100%. When you select the placed file with the selection tool, it says 100%, but if you select with the direction tool, file has been changed any where from 98 to 102 %, not staying at the 100%? why is this and how can you asure the size does not change when placed or when updating the illustrator link?

    Probably you have inserted files in a frame whose content was previously adequate with "Fit Content Proportionally" or "Fill Frame Proportionally".
    The new content in the same frame will have the same characteristics as the previous one

  • How can I retrieve my hidden videos from Imovie?

    I went in to my Imovies and tried to retrieve hidden videos that I hid so the kids wouldn't see them.  I would like to know how to find these hidden videos.

    Photo stream is not part of the backup, it's stored separately in iCloud.  Also, photo are only kept in photo stream for 30 days.  After that they are removed from photo stream although they will remain on your device if it has already received them.  However, if you turn off photo stream for any reason (such as during a restore), it can only receive the photos currently in photo stream.  If they're all over 30 days old they will no longer be there to retrieve.  (Normally this isn't an issue as the photos will all either be in your camera roll, where the originated, or imported to your computer for safekeeping.)

  • How can I delete hidden video files from the iPad?

    How can I delete hidden video files from the iPad?  These files were created on my MBA and when I changed the media type to iTunesU and then copied it to my iPad via iTunes, they did not appear.  I can see them using 3rd party software, but they don't have delete functionality.
    Thanks
    York

    Interesting note:  I can see the files when I use the search function, but when I tap either file, I return to my home screen.  The video does not open.  I can transfer the file to my MBA, and it plays fine, but I cannot figure out a way to delete them.

  • Encore web DVD "hidden video assets" ?

    is it possibe to create a  encore web DVD with "hidden video assets" ? (like they used to using Director?)
    so the end user would just insert the dvd rom, and lauch an html file but would not see the video assets ?

    it would be to prevent copying of individual f4v files. it used to be common in director hiding quicktime files.
    i guess the better way now would be to host the flash/videos on a protected webpage and sell timed access. (unfortunalty, that comes with a learning curve to put into effect.)
    but the origianl thought was to offer the product as DVD or On Demand Streaming or Digital Download -  and if a user chooses Digital Download i have to have a delivery format

  • How to recover hidden video files on Zen X-Fi

    Hi all,
    The screen cracked on my Zen X-Fi, so nothing is visible. I think it also may somehow be out of power and not rechargable.
    What I need to do is recover some of the videos I had on there, but I had them as "hidden" video files.
    Is there some way to hook the X-Fi up to my computer, use it as an external disk, find the hidden files, and copy them? I can't even get it to look like an external disk in Windows Explorer.
    Any ideas? I'd be grateful. Thank you.

    How long do you have it plugged in to charge? Leave it plugged in for an hour to see if there is any response.
    If it's completely dead then I am afraid you won't be able to transfer the files back to your computer. There are third-party vendors that offer data recovery services for a fee, you might want to do a google search for them.

  • Placed QuarkXpress 7 eps into InDesign CS3 prints with slanted type

    any suggestions to fix?

    placed QuarkXpress 7 eps into InDesign CS3 prints with slanted type
    The problem may be in the HP print drivers.
    Printing to Epson printers works, printing to HP 132, 5000 or 2200 produces slanted type, even at Adobe.
    Printing to disk as a Postscript printer and then printing the ps file using the pdf printer works fine.

  • Video in indesign to PDF

    I'm trying to export a file to pdf from indesign that has video with type placed over the top. After exporting and viewing in acrobat, I can view the video but not the type. Can anyone tell me what I'm might be doing wrong?

    Bob is correct. As I understand it, interactive objects like video exist on a higher "level" in the PDF than the page content.
    They can't be mixed together like you can in InDesign.

  • Embed Video PDF InDesign Booklet with Page Transitions & Playable Video

    e.g.
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/InDesign...3D6C6A460.html
    also such as:
    http://www.page-flip.com (although yet to implement  feature...)
    So...
    Is there any way to get embedded video within pdf - once placed in  InDesign - to export (either swf or xfl) creating a booklet-type  publication with page transitions (curl/ page-flip) with the videos  playable?

    Only Adobe Acrobat or Reader can show those PDFs (and many others) correctly. Are you sure that the PDF was opened in one of these 2 applications and not in Apple Preview or Ghostviewer or something else?
    Only Adobe Reader 9 and X and Acrobat 9 and X can show PDFs with Flash content correctly. If you have an older version, let us say Version 8 or older, you are not able to see Flash content at all. If you have a newer version, that is Reader XI or Acrobat XI you need additional Adobe Flash player have installed on that computer and allow access to your PDFs. Can you check, if these substantial requirement are fulfilled?
