Play more than 1 video/podcast/movie at a time

How can I use Front Row to play a whole folder of movies at a time?
I have a whole bunch of short films and video podcasts & wanna play one-after-another in Front Row. I cannot seem to get Front Row to do this for me. I wanna just sit back and watch them all, without selecting the next one every 2 to 5 minutes.
Can you do this is Front Row?

This can't be done with Front Row right now. Because the 3rd & 4th generation iPod nanos support "video playlists", there's been hope that some day Front Row will also support a video playlist. But, so far we haven't seen that option yet. You can create a video playlist in iTunes and it will play through directly from iTunes, however. You'll have to add your movies to iTunes to use this option...

  • OSS doesn't play more than 1 sound at the same time [SOLVED]

    Hello,
    I use OSS to replace ALSA, it used to work properly here. Today I noticed that I can't play more than one sound at the same time, something which I used to be able to do.
    Also, ossxmix doesn't operate properly (I can't control the volume of a specific program).
    Looks like a permissions issue, because /dev/dsp and /dev/oss are created as root and other users get Permission Denied.
    Any ideas how to fix it? My sound card is an AC'97 onboard.
    Thanks!
    EDIT: Solved by pacman -R oss, rm -rf /usr/lib/oss then pacman -S oss. Seems to have worked.

    Hello Angela,
    Have you tried resetting the iPod yet to see if that makes a difference?  To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    If that doesn't work, a restore of the iPod via iTunes may be in order.

  • Can't play more than one podcast at a time

    Hi folks,
    I recently updated my nano so that it would work with the Nike+ accelerometor, and now my podcast playlists only play one podcast and then returns to the root directory. (this problem occurred BEFORE I ever got the Nike doohickey)
    Now I need to press the center button in series to move forward to the playlist and play another podcast.
    I was able to play podcasts one after another before the recent update.
    Has anyone else experienced this and come up a with a workaround?
    I like listening to the Onion radio podcasts, and it is quite annoying to have to play each one.
    iMac G5 20"   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    Thanks Sluggospud, but that didn't work for MY nano.
    I tried both solutions, and each time only a single entry plays, afterwhich the system returns to the root directory with "music" selected.
    I did notice something wierd. If I choose any album except podcast albums, I can click the play button and the album starts to play. If I click on the Onion Radio news "album", nothing happens.
    The only way I can get any onion podcast to play is to enter the album (or artist or playlist) and click play on a single entry.
    I had been able to play podcast playlists before the most recent iPod updater. I don't know if I need to do some secret reset to get podcasts to play properly.
    grrrrrrrr

  • More than one podcast episode at a time

    When a podcaster posts two or three episodes at once (defined as "between times that I launch iTunes"), iTunes only downloads the last one.  How can I tell it to download all of them?  (Without also retrieving hundreds of ancient episodes as well.)

    In 'My podcasts' view, if necessary click 'Show all' at top right, then when it's showing then click 'Add all'. Click on the cloud-with-a-down-arrow icon to the right of each episode to download that episode. You can play any episode without permanently downloading it by double-clicking on it (obviously it uses the same bandwidth as downloading but the file doesn't have to be downloaded first and is not retained after you've listened).

  • Projector that plays more than one movie

    How can I make one projector play more than one movie? If the movies are protected, can the projector still play them? How can I link them? Thanks for your help.

    Hi Norman,
    I’ll elaborate on Sean’s reply.
    As Sean mentioned you can use:
    _movie.go("markerName", "MovieName")
    To jump to the marker named ‘Markername’ in a movie called ‘MovieName’.
    I tend to still use the verbose syntax
    go to "markerName" of movie "MovieName"
    If you had:
    go to movie "MovieName"
    you’d jump to the start of the movie (frame 1)
    you could use:
    go to movie "MovieName.dir"
    but the '.dir' is not needed and if you create a protected DXR or DCR, the statement (without the movie extension) would work.
    Now, if you want to avoid writing a unique behavior for every link you’re creating, I’ve got a tutorial that describes how to do it at:
    http://www.deansdirectortutorials.com/Lingo/paramDialog.htm
    The above uses property variables and a parameter dialog box. It does require some understanding of programming (not too much though).
    If you have D11.5, in the Library Palette, in the ‘Controls’, category, there is a ‘Jump to Movie Button’ behavior. This behavior can be dragged and dropped onto a sprite and then you can type in the marker name and movie name in a parameter dialog box to set the link for the sprite. I say D11.5 because while earlier versions of Director have this behavior, there is a small error (easily fixed) that makes the marker jumping part non-functional. Anyway, my behavior in my tut site does the same thing.

  • Network OK but not a single APP on ATV can play more than 1 second

    My ATV 3rd gen (full HD) is at latest update, network is OK (I see movie trailers and all) but ALL applications (Netflix, Vimeo, InternetRadio, PodCasts, etc) cannot play more than a fraction of a second then it takes me back to that APP main screen.  I tried rebooting, but to no avail.  Since I am at latest software version I don't know what to do but bring it to full factory reset (and then reprogram everything, network, Netflix, HomeShare....).  Any suggestions???

    Thanks for the quick response, but I assure you the network is not the problem.  I can see the posters of the new films (not the trailers, wrong wording).  This means that I get info from Internet.  But ANY and ALL application cannot play for more than a fraction of a second.  As an example, I start a Netflix movie, it starts to play for about 0.5 seconds and then goes back to Netflix previous screen.  Same thing happens for ALL application (InternetRadio plays one or two notes then goes back to InternetRadio channels screen).  Same thing for Vimeo, Podcast, etc.  I'd like to solve it without a full factory reset..... :-(
    Thx again.

  • Play more than one song at a time

    The apple tv won't play more than one song on my playlist. And why can't there be playlists under "Music" and well as "Computer"?

    This has been a condition since day one.  The "working" icon just keeps going and it doesn't move on to the next song.  I've tried using the random play option as well to no avail.
    Is this when trying to stream content from iTunes using the Computers icons and Music submenu? I assume  the same happens when you try to play from the internet using the main Music icon too?  Is it only on Shuffle or when playing an album?
    What about movie rentals from itunes Store  - will they play ok?
    WLFehrs wrote:
    Connectivity isn't a problem, my home network has the latest tech and the Apple TV is within 15 feet anyway. 
    While that seems logical don't entirely discount it - issues like this are incredibly frustrating to pin down to which component on the network is causing the problem  - your old AppleTV worked (with Windows 8?) so this makes the newer model the more likely culprit I would agree.
    Whenever there are issues like this, if you have not done so:
    1 - Unpower AppleTV, router and restart along with the computer.
    2 - If connecting via wifi and it is feasible to test with ethernet do so to exclude wifi as the problem somewhere in the chain.
    3 - If streaming from iTunes check the computer is not going to sleep - power saving with hard drives spinning down could potentially cause a 'timeout' issue for access and worth temporarily disabling to test.
    4 - Temporarily disable any security software (firewall/port blocking) on the computer or check if it is detecting AppleTV repeated connections as an unknown intrusion threat.
    5 - Reset AppleTV and set it up again from the Settings menu.
    6 - Restore AppleTV using iTunes and a microUSB to USB connection:
    Apple TV (2nd and 3rd generation): Restoring your Apple TV
    7 - Assuming under warranty, take it to an Apple store and see if you can get a replacement.  It may be faulty.
    As I said these issues can be very tricky to pin down and it can be a process of elimination.
    I had issues last year with connection problems - I thought it was an itunes update as there were threads elsewhere about multiple connections being established.  One day I restarted my router and the problem was fixed.  A few years ago my AppleTV1s were hanging after extended use - it was the Netgear router overheating ( aknown fault with that particular model).

  • Can ATV play multi layered video track .mov files?

    Hi all,
    Front Row 2 cannot play multi layered video track .mov files for now,
    so I wonder if an ATV take 2 can play .mov files with 2 or more video track?

    HeyJP wrote:
    yeah, so far, it looks like it has to be pretty vanilla. Only a single h.264 track and an audio track.
    The new 5.1 rentals supposedly have 2 audio tracks - stereo for devices that can't handle 5.1 via HDMI and presmably to give stereo audio out via the RCA sockets, and the 5.1 passthrough.
    It may be that with time more fucntionality will be added to movie playback, but I'm not holding my breath.

  • Sequences - Test Organzer:  How to move more than 1 test case at a time

    Hello,
    I would like to be able to move multiple test cases within a sequence but I do not know how.  If I highlight multiple rows and select Move Test Case only 1 of the rows will move.  This is fine if your test package only has a few transactions but if you have many it becomes very time consuming.
    Does anyone know how to move more than one test case at a time within a sequence?
    Regards,
    Corinne Taylor

    Hi Corinne,
    Actually I do not have any solution for that either. I am also only able to move the test cases one by one, which indeed can become very time consuming. There I have a small question to you: when I am in the web-based application to change the sequence of the test cases, everything goes really slow. Selecting the test package in the browser, going to change mode, selecting the test cases, creating a test sequence...it all takes time before I can continue. Is it the same with you? Else I will need to look at what is going wrong on our side.
    Thanks and best regards,

  • Can't delete more than 5 podcasts at a time via Smart Playlists

    Can't delete more than 5 podcasts at a time via Smart Playlists, using the Shift+Delete keys to force deleting the source podcast.
    Becomes VERY tedious to get rid of old podcasts with certain "smart playlist" filters.
    Advice? Bug?

    I should add that I face the same problem with Safari and Google Chrome.

  • ITunes will no longer play more than one song in a row

    I upgraded my iTunes and it seemed to be working fine. But all of a sudden I cannot get my libraray or any playlist ti play more than one song at a time automatically. It just stops after each song. Any ideas?
    Thanks

    But all of a sudden I cannot get my libraray or any playlist ti play more than one song at a time automatically. It just stops after each song.
    head into your itunes main library window. are all the little boxes to the left of your tracks unchecked?
    is so, hold down Ctrl and click on one of those boxes to recheck all the songs. (this may take a little time.)
    do you get continuous play once all the songs are rechecked?
