Playing movie on multiple slides

Filmed a speaker giving a presentation while he went through his Keynote slides, now I need to take his slides from keynote and place the small movie of him talking on the corresponding slides from his presentation. Some of the movie clips span two or three slides. How do I make the movie clips continue from one slide to the next? Plan to place the finish product on DVD. New to keynote 09.......thanks

You will need to split your presentation into multiple pieces. The pieces can then be hyperlinked together. Getting it to run together seamlessly on DVD may be a little challenging, though. You may need an additional step to record the linked parts into a single movie.
Thinking about this a little more, you may need to make multiple QT files, then splice them together using QTPro. It will take a little pre-planning.

Video across multiple slides

hi, is there any way i can get any version of keynote to play video across multiple slides, i have a looping starfield video that i want to play behind the whole of a pretty complex award show presentation, due to each slide already having 58 builds its not preally practicle to have all the stuff merged into one slides so video behind the full show is really my only option
Many thanks
Ben

No it is not possible to have a movie play across multilple slides in Keynote. But there might be a workaround. Is the final video going to be automatically playing where you have preset all the timing or are you going to be clicking through it as you go?
If you are going to time everything out and then just have it play, one option (which I have never tried) would be to make the background of all the slides green. Then export to iMovie and use the Greenscreen feature to put the lopping starfield video behind it. Like I said, I have never tried to use the greenscreen feature, so I have no idea how well it will work, but would be worth a try.

Do I need multicam in order to create a movie from multiple cameras?

Do I need multicam in order to create a movie from multiple cameras? The old fashioned way is just to simply put multiple video clips into multiple video tracks in Final Cut, right? Then I can transition the tracks as I see fit.
Multicam in Final Cut Pro simply improves upon this by hard synching timecodes right?
As an amateur, do I really need multicam features in Final Cut Pro in order to make a movie from multiple camera angles?

Will it make your editing tasks more efficient? Not
likely. Multicam is an advanced feature of FCP. It
requires knowing how most of the application's basic
operations are performed.
I have to disagree with bog in that multicam is all about efficiency and being able to quickly set-up and edit what could normally take a lot longer. But he is totally correct in that it is a strange set-up with some strange behaviors so if you don't know what you're doing and plan accordingly it could take a lot longer and be a lot more frustrating than the 'old fashioned' way.
I think it's also important to note that multi-cam is way more than just the "real time" switching of the multiclip in the viewer as it plays back. If you can take time to learn the ins and outs of multi-cam then you can use some features on some jobs and other features at other times. An amateur can do anything that the FCP software because it's there in front of you so play play play!

Ipad mini got strucked when playing movie

I am having ipad mini and when I was playing movie on that it got hanged and I tried of reseting but it was not happing so what to do now???

First thing to try is a reboot of your iPad. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the iPad restart. See if that fixes your problem.
Is that what you did when you said you tried to restart?
You might also try quitting the app you are using to play the movie. Go to the Home screen and double click the Home button. That will reveal the row of recently used apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold on the app in question until it wiggles and displays a minus sign. Tap the minus sign to actually quit the app. Then tap anywhere on the screen above that bottom row to return the screen to normal. Then restart the app and see if it works normally.

CP5 Freezing when editing video over multiple slides

Captivate continuously freezes when I'm working with a video that I've spread over multiple slides.
This is a Windows 7 computer. I've cleared my cache incase that had something to do with that.
Any help would be apreciated.
Susan

Which version?
Some ideas: background music for the file, to stop on slides 1-2 and 21-23.
VO as slide auido on slides where wanted.
For slide 2: object audio which can play parallel with the VO (see http://blog.lilybiri.com/audio-objects-control-them)
For slide 21-23: object audio with object displayed for the rest of the project, and hidden on entering slide 24

Using Guides for multiple Slides

Hello there,
my problem is as follows:
I want to be able to use Guides in Keynote for multiple slides. In other words: once I set up guides for one slide, I then also want to see those guides when switching to the next slide.
Why do I want to do that? Once I find a nice layout which I want to use throughout my presentation, eg. always a picture at a certain position, I want to use the guides to then help me to align pictures on all the other slides at the same position
Thx for any help!
Best,
Helio

Hi,
I think I've got it, the issue you have has been driving me nuts and I have tried all sorts (incl. the work-around as suggested by Gillian).
What I have discovered is that the guides placed on the master are on the slides – it's just they are not visible!!! You will see that when you move an object on the slide it will snap to a guide that you have placed on the master. Quite clever in a way but not practical in another way, so the work-around might still be a good way to help visually.
I'm aware this is not a great help, but at least it explains how the guides work.
Hopefully in the next release we will have guides that work like indesign!

Audio across multiple slides

How do I get a song to continue to play across multiple slides but not during the whole presentation? For example, I want a song to start on slide #6 and stop at slide #12.

JDT:
Tulse and you are BOTH right. The process is cumbersome and it is a pain. It also has been described in great detail in previous threads in this Forum. Just search on the keywords: music tracks, audio tracks, slides with music, etc.
CAVEAT: slideshows with recorded soundtracks will not play with synchronization when initiated as a Hyperlink; all Builds and Transitions will need to be created to begin either Automatically, or via Click.
This and many other audio-related shortcomings of Keynote have been lamented numerous times to the Keynote Feedback Forum. Hopefully, some future upgrade to Keynote will address these issues. Until then, all we can do is apply band-aid work-arounds.

Is there any way to enable grapher to play .mov movies in Mavericks?

in mountain lion, i could play .mov movies in grapher and it was really useful because it was lightweight and i could have multiple videos open at once. since installing mavericks, grapher no longer plays .mov files. is there any way to fix this?

Hi,
As far as I know there don’t have the log replica function between failover cluster node, if you want to have the Unified log management you can refer the following related

Exporting presentation to movie file: build/slide duration

I have been unable to find this in Keynote's help file.
When exporting a Keynote presentation to a self-playing movie file, you are asked to specify:
[1] Build duration
[2] Slide duration
I suppose this should be obvious, but I can't quite figure out what they mean with respect to a .mov file.

In case Brian's answer wasn't what you were looking for, in the self-playing mode, build duration refers to how long each animation build/slide transition should take, and slide duration determines how long a slide should stay on-screen once all transitions are completed on it.

How to automatically play movies

I have the setting in Player Preferences selected to Play Movies Automatically under the Browser tab. But, the video will not play unless you click on the play button.
Any info appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi - my notes on this.
Play all resp one chapter at a time
Play All Button
1. There are NO - Play All - button in any version of iDVD
2. It can be faked in several ways
• Easiest and most fault proof way is to make a doublet movie containing All and with
Chapters set to match. It will take up x2 space but is easy to understand and produce.
Cons: Tried this in iMovie’11 by Exporting out each part as a full Quality QT.mov then Importing back into new events and putting these into a new project (Play All project). Resulting DVD had Audio that was OK (as parts) - BUT the picture was very bad and standing photo were cut of in hight. So the Play All movie has to be created from same material and exactly in the same way as the individual parts + then Chapters has to be set to match.
• It's said that one can put all movies into a Photo/SlideShow and this will also
give the function of a Play All button - Tested - and ONE HAS TO un-cheque - Scale pictures to TV-Safe area else it will be a black frame all around and a small picture !
Mike Evangelist1
You might be able to get close to what you want by using a slideshow in iDVD. (It's not widely known, but you can put videos in a slideshow.) If you set the slide duration to manual, playback will pause after each movie/slide, and you can continue with the 'next' button.
3. Using another program to do this e.g.. Roxio Toast™ where there is a Play All button option.
Summary
a. Making a Play All movie with same care as the individual Part movies - gives a very Good Result
b. Using Roxio Toast™ - also an usable way to go

My iPad quit playing movies.

My ipad has been working great. Now for the last several days, if I select the Videos button, nothing happens. . . meaning that I can't play movies. I'm running iOS 4.3.3 and have over 40GB of free space. Turning it off then on had no effect. Viewing the contents on my laptop (through iTunes) indicates that the movies are still on the ipad. Is there any way to correct this other than a restore? Thanks!

Have you tried closing the Videos app completely ? From the home screen double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Video app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Play Movie thru Stop Markers

Is there any way to select "Play Movie" and run the whole thing in a project where there are multiple chapters with stop markers?
All I can get is return to the main menu after the first chapter.
Perhaps there needs to be a new type of marker introduced into the program that is a stop marker for scene or chapter selection but is ignored when "play movie" is selected

gbr41
When you have stop markers in a multi movie Timeline, the play all button will not play all.
The following is a scheme that I came up with to have play all capability and still use Timeline stop markers.
ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE: DVD Menu Navigation/Play All Loss
The scheme involves duplicating the Timeline content and placing the duplicate (without stop markers) after the original.
Then with the appropriate choice of menu markers, the main menu play all button function is converted to a bonus button function which
is used to to access the play all content from the main menu. That bonus button on the main menu can be left named
"Bonus" or renamed to "Play all".
Lots to going on in that scheme. Please review and consider, and then we can go over the details step by step if interested.
Thank you.

How do you play a single question slide?

I am working on a multiple choice question slide, and I want to play it, and it only, to test it out. I have the options : play slide, project, next fives slides, from this slide. When I select "play slide", Captivate somehow forgets the slide is interactive, and "plays" the slide without waiting for me to answer the question or interact with it. How can I get the slide to act as if it were being played as part of the whole object ?
Ryan

Hi there
Expounding on what was said here.
You did note that there are four types of preview.
Play this slide
Next X Slides
Project
In Web Browser
When Play this slide is used, it is really only intended to check timing of objects to see if they are appearing and disappearing at the proper times. As you have noted it's not interactive.
If you really want to play just the one slide, I would edit the preferences and configure the number of slides from 5 to 1 for the preview. Then use the "Next 1 Slides" option. (It will change depending on the number you opted to use.)
Cheers... Rick

Subtitles are not getting displayed while playing movies

Hi,
Recently I have upgraded with Max OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard. After this upgrade whenever I play movies in my VLC player, I am getting a message as "freetype: failed to load font file /System/Library/Fonts/LucidaGrande.dfont" and then the subtitles are not displayed.
Can someone advise how to resolve it? I tried to download LucidaGrande.dfont from internet. But I couldnt find one. Please help.
Thanks.
Ravi

Hello, Ravi & welcome to the forums.
Lucida Grande is included with Mac OS X.
Check and validate all of your fonts with Apple's Font Book (look in the Applications folder). Search for Lucida Grande to be sure it was properly installed. Find and remove duplicates as well.
Also, don't hesisate to perform wholesale deletion of old and/or little used fonts - be skeptical of anything that has come from Office 2008, including those related to an Equation Editor installation.
Finally, be sure all the apps you are using are compatible with SnowLeopard. Check with their authors for updates.

Unable to play some movie from Netflix on my iPad. When I click on a movie an error message comes up which says "cannot play movie. Please try again". Can anyone assist me? I just upgraded to iOS 7.1. Netflix not able to find problem.

Unable to play some movies from Netflix on my iPad. When I click on a movie an error message comes up "Cannot play movie. Please try again later." I contacted Netflix but have not been able the help so I am wondering if it's my iPad. I didn't have a problem before but I have recently upgraded to iOS 7.1. Also is a certain amount of storage needed to play a movie? About how much is that?

Hello all,
I have an iPad 2 16GB with iOS 7.0.3 and Netflix version 5.0.2. I cannot watch netflix on an External LCD monitor that I have through VGA out. I use bluetooth speakers, so the AirPlay is going to that for Audio. Before this update, this combo worked without an issue.
So as of Friday Nov. 8/2013, I contacted Netflix support, and they said they fixed the problem on their end, and the fix is on the Apple side of things, and to contact Apple support.
So, I contacted Apple support, and the first person I spoke to said I would have to agree to pay a $35 fee for 30 days of support to this problem since my unit is out of warranty. I said this isn't a hardware issue, it's a software issue, and I'm not willing to pay to fix a problem you created. So I got a Senior Level advisor on the line, and she was helpful, and she's looking into the issue for me and said she'll contact me sometime on Tuesday or Wednesday (Nov. 12 or 13) to let me know of the issue.
Here's the thing: this is a combination of Netflix and iOS not working correctly with any of the Apple Authorized Dongles. This is truly a code error that some hot shot programmer had major oversight on, and their management didn't catch it either. There was no reason for Netflix to rush to get this Netflix update going until Apple sorted out the bugs in iOS 7.
Anyway, if I hear anything from Donna (the advisor), I'll post it and let you guys know. In the mean time, good luck!
