Playing one track after another.

I have a good deal of classical music and different movements of many works are different tracks. So I have, say, Sonata in A flat, track 1, track 2, etc. I play the first track and then, instead of going to the next track, the ipod skips to a random song. How do I change this? Is there a way of telling iTunes/iPod that a series of tracks should be played together in a certain sequence.

It sounds like you have 'Shuffle' play turned on.
Go to the settings menu and make sure that Shuffle is set to 'Off'.

Embed question - play one movie after another

I am trying to figure out how to play a short 10 second clip before each movie on my website. The clip may be a short ad or a promo and will depend upon the content of the main video. What is the code that enables you to play one move after another in a web page. I don't want to edit the two clips to become one cos over time the ads and promos will change. In Realplayer I remember using SMIL but how is it done in QT. I will eventually write code to write out the Embed tag but now i am just experimenting. Here is what my drupal site puts out

Embed the initial movie clip as normal, but give it an HREF property.
Set the source for the HREF to be the next movie, set autohref=true, and set target="myself". It's the same technique you use to build a poster movie but (a) instead of having the poster movie open QT Player, you have its target open in its own frame and (b) instead of waiting for a user to click the poster, you have the poster movie "click itself".
Code that I used a very long time ago to display a "Loading..." graphic as a movie loaded (waste of effort, actually, as the movie is fast start and loads very fast):
<embed
src="loading.mov"
height="208"
width="256"
autohref="true"
href="Worm.mov"
target="Myself">
</embed>
(of course this was before I learned about OBJECT and the need to use OBJECT to activate the ActiveX control in IE. Also, it's worth noting that the javascript hack isn't strictly necessary for IE users, but without it, IE users will get a security dialog before they get the movie.)

ITunes won't play one song after another automatically.

I have an iMac . iTunes has always played one selection after another automatically, and I am not talking about shuffle. I downloaded an audio book (Mp3 files) which loaded into music, but I have to choose each segment manually, it won't play one segment sequentially automatically.

Are the selections un-checked? Items that are not checked will not automatically play. If they are checked, go into Get Info and see if you have the "Skip when shuffling" option set -- if it is, and if you happen to have Shuffle turned on, they won't play.

DJ solution: Play one track, monitor another

I use my Macbook as a DJ, just playing tracks through iTunes, with a headphone-to-RCA adapter connected to the mixing box. What I'd like is a way to play one track out to the mixer, while playing a different track to my headphones so I can pre-hear songs to pick the next track. Now, the only way I can do taht is to drag the song to my iPod, un-mount the iPod, then play it off the iPod. That's a lot of steps and it's too easy to accidentally play the track I want to screen. I expect this would be a hardware and software solution requiring a device connected via USB.

That's not helping. It's just a software solution and it only sees MP3s in my iTunes library. Also, since it's software only, it doesn't answer the problem: two independent audio outputs.
I don't need anything fancy, like mixing. My DJ needs are simple. I play mostly swing and jazz music at casual swing dance evens. iTunes handles my needs fine, as far as the main output to the mixer is concerned. I just need a way to screen songs without interrupting the one playing. Since there's only one audio output on the computer, this will require a hardware solution. Ideally, the software will either work seamlessly with my iTunes Library, including playlists, or will be a plug-in for iTunes.

How do I play one podcast after another?

Hello,
I have iTunes 7.0.2 and I can't figure out how to play podcasts one after another ... like, when one podcast is done, to go on to play the next one. Any ideas?

I think you can create a podcast playlist then drag episodes to it, and arrange them in the order you want to listen.
Hope that helps.

Playing one video after another, PLZ help!

Hi,
Im trying to play one video and then when this finishes i want to start another. Can anyone help in any way?

Thank you all in advance.

You should add a controllerListener to the player you create, when the media file end, jmf raises the EndOfMedia event to controllerUpdate method. You can do whatever you want at this point.

Preventing iTunes from playing one song after another

When I'm listening to music from my playlist, I notice that when the song reaches its end, iTunes automatically starts the next song in the playlist.
I don't want that to happen--I just want the song to end and that's that. I would think being able to control this would be under Preferences but I couldn't find it there. Can anybody help me? Thanks.
Jim

you can always make a playlist with the one song you want to play or you can take the check marks out of all the songs in your playlist, this will allow you play only one song at a time, but they won't sync to your ipod or play in other playlists.

Playing one movie after another on one iDVD Project

Hello,
I am making a slideshow dvd that has two sets of videos. One is a slideshow from iPhoto in .mov format and a ending in .m4v My problem is that I need to play the slideshow first and then the ending without having to go back to a menu. How would I go about this. Thank you

Hi
Only way I know of is: Re-do the SlideShow in iMovie HD 6 as a full movie.
Add this to Your iDVD project.
No there are NON - Play all option in iDVD so when needing this one has to
feed iDVD with one full movie and then double with each Chapter as an individual
small movie.
In DVD Studio pro this can be done: But price scarry and needs lot's of learning
to do it right.

Playing one movieclip after another in as3

In as2 I am using:
_parent.gotoAndPlay(_parent._currentframe + 1);
to have one movieclip play and then when it finishes the next
movieclip plays. How do I do this is as3?

Thank you for posting your discovery! I was looking for quite
some time looking for a solution but asking the wrong questions to
the search engines. MovieClip(parent).nextFrame(); works for the
project I'm on but for the future is there away to determine from
the stage if an added Child is finished. I've been able to add a
listener for a sound clip and then execute a function:
drumSC.addEventListener(Event.SOUND_COMPLETE, drumsFinished);
but is there a way to listen for when a movieclip is
complete(hint Event.COMPLETE doesn't work)?
Thank you

How do i get music videos to play like the music does on my ipad, for example one right after another and shuffle

I need to know how I can get the music videos on my IPad to play like the music does. What I mean id setting up a playlist, shuffle, and have them play one right after another instead of going back to the main screen.

At the top of the playlist where it shows the playlist title and the number of songs, there are two icons. Click the "play" triangle to add the entire playlist to "Up Next", or the "shuffle" symbol to do the same thing but in random order. But the currently playing track will stop playing, and all the songs in "Up Next" will be removed (replaced by the ones from this playlist).
If you hold down the "option" key while clicking those icons, the currently playing song will continue playing, and the new playlist will be added to "Up Next" (above the songs that were already there).

I created a playlist with 100 songs. I want those 100 songs played using the shuffle option. This no longer works in iTunes version 11.1.5.5 How can I get an entire playlist to paly one song after another by using the switch option?

You're welcome.
Going back to your original post:
5) Tried running Itunes in 'safe mode', running itunes as an administrator..nothing.
Was that iTunes' safe mode as opposed to Windows' safe mode? iTunes safe mode is invoked by holding down CTRL+SHIFT immediately after clicking the icon to launch iTunes and continuing to hold until this message pops up:
Click continue, then close iTunes and reopen. With luck iTunes now opens normally every time.

How do you copy automation from one track to another?

How do you copy automation from one track to another? Occassionally I mistakenly blow away a track's automation. I open up an earlier version of the song to try to get the automation. It doesn't seem that you can copy and paste the data. After some struggle, I find a way. Is there an easy way?

1. Copy the track containing the desired automation to another track. (create a track below it to keep things organized)
2. Double click on the region and delete the notes.
3. Now copy the region to the desired track.
P.S. Of course when Logic asks if you want to copy the automation data you say yes)

Moving activities from one track to another

Hi,
I was wondering whether it's possible to move activities (not activated nor transported yet) from one track to another.
Here's our setup:
Project is divided into 2 phases:
Phase A is completed developed - Still waiting for the results of UAT.
Phase B is now under development.
Since we can still expect issues to pop up after the UAT of phase A, we don't want to mess up phase A source with ongoing phase B development. So, we are planning the copy NWDI track A to track B in order to start developing for phase B without touching track A. After successfull UAT of phase A we plan to merge track B files back again to track A.
Is this possible within NWDI?
Thank you,
Joren Crauwels

MP3 Player that can play one track, and than stops.

Hi all,
For an art project, I am looking for a mp3 player that can playback in "single track play" mode.
Meaning that it will automatically stop/pause?after playing one track, and remain paused until I press "play" to start playback of?the next song?(I don't want to have to press "pause" or "stop" after each song is played).
Are there currently any mp3 players by Creative Labs?that have this "single track play" capability?
Thanks in advance for your recommendations!
Best regards,
Eibert Draisma.

Try Groove for iPad. People seem to think it's a great replacement to the previous music app.

My iPad air won't charge at all and I don't know if it's the charger or port help!i have had a new port put in before and it worked fine after but it's not working now! I have spent way to much trying to fix this thing one problem after another?

My iPad air won't change at all, and I don't know if it's the port or charger cable it is charging normally but it just won't charge. I have had a new port put in before after a charger getting stuck in there but it worked fine after and now it's not working at all! I don't know if maybe it's the charger getting old but I have spent far too much money on this iPad then I should have as it's one problem after another witch is causing me lots of stress.

Try giving your iPad a reset. Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds. When you see the silver apple, let go and let it reboot and try again.
How are you charging it? its's best charged plugged into the wall not via USB. So if you're trying via USB, try using the supplied power block plugged into the wall.
