Playing videos in a row automatically?

I guess you can't do this in fornt row, but I was wondering if it is possible to play quick time movies in a row automatically, without having to go and click play on the next movie everytime one ends.
By the way, if anyone knows how to do this in front row, you are a godsend!
THANKS!

Use VLC for this.

  • Is it possible to insert a video and have it automatically play when the topic is opened?

    I am using Robohelp 10. Is it possible to insert a video and have it automatically play when the topic is opened?

    Hi Alchemex,
    What tool are you using to create the video.
    You can set preferences using the tool that you created the video with/
    For example, if you are using Adobe Captivate you can set videos to start automatically?
    Let me know if you need more detail.
    Kind Regards

  • How to stop Flash from automatically playing videos?

    Some web pages have, either for advertisement or content, a box playing videos automatically. An example is Yahoo Finance playing Bloomberg videos. It costs bandwidth on some devices. I was not able to find any way to stop it. Some advices found elsewhere recommended checking ActiveX Filtering. In Yahoo case it doesn’t work. What else can be done to stop this behavior? Windows 8.1, IE11, FP 16.0.0.235.

    I revive this question. Maybe this time somebody will know the answer.

  • Front Row Crashing when Trying tpo play video

    I just picked up m new iMac 20" and have been trying to play my videos on Front row.
    I have tried every category - they are all authorized - but still, before even a second of video play s - Frontrow crashes. Please help!

    There are several steps. Note that this is invading your main System folder which can be dangerous. You should have a complete backup of all your files before poking around like this!
    1. Delete Front Row (and Front Row only) from this path by dragging it to the Trash:
    /System/Library/CoreServices/Front Row.app
    Then empty your Trash.
    2. Delete the records that indicate Front Row has already been installed by deleting the receipts. If you've installed the 1.3 update, there will be two files to delete in this path:
    /Library/Receipts/FrontRow.pkg
    /Library/Receipts/FrontRowUpdate1.3.pkg
    Drag both of those files to the Trash and empty it.
    3. Put in your Mac OS X install DVD (you don't have to boot from it) and run the "Install Bundled Software Only" installer. At the "Install Type" window, there should be a "customize" button. Click on that and uncheck every other option besides Front Row. The continue and finish installing Front Row only.
    4. Run the Software Update and your computer should recognize you need the Front Row 1.3 update. Install the update. Now might be a good time to restart.
    That should completely replace Front Row and update it to the current version (which is needed if you're using the up-to-date version of iTunes and QuickTime).

  • How can I stop videos on websites from automatically playing?

    On many sites like Forbes and Accuweather, videos automatically start playing when I load the site. Not only is this annoying, the video also draws unnecessary bandwidth when I tether from my Verizon smartphone.
    Is there any way through Firefox to prevent autoplay of videos on websites?
    There used to be a plugin available, but no longer.
    http://just-ask-kim.com/stop-auto-play-videos-audios-firefox/

    Adblock Plus can also block some of them if you never want to see them again.
    But you could also use this option from Firefox:
    Type in the address bar:
    ''about:config''
    Then search for:
    ''plugins.click_to_play''
    Double click and it will be set to true.

  • Very recently, my computer stopped opening quicktime when I click on a video clip in iphoto, Its quicktime X, and it works to play videos if I open quicktime and then search for the video. How do I go back to quicktime automatically launching from iphoto?

    Very recently, my computer stopped opening quicktime when I click on a video clip in iphoto. I have quicktime X, and it still works to play videos if I open quicktime and then search for the video. How do I go back to quicktime automatically launching from iphoto?

    Well since I do not have iPhoto 7 I can only guess what may be: As far I can remember up to iPhoto 8, iPhoto insisted on Quick Time Player 7. As I can see you have Snow Leopard (Mac OS X 10.6) and there Quick Time X is the standard playaer. Basically Quick Time 7 is not part of Snow Leopard.
    Can you please check if Quick Time 7 is installed under Applications->Utilitis (in 10.6 Quick Time 7 if presenet is installed not under Applications - there Quick Time X is - but under Application/Utilities).
    If not: insert your Snow Leopard installation DVD.
    Once the installer opens, double-click on the Optional Installs folder
    Double-click the Optional Installs.mpkg package
    Click continue.
    Select the option for QuickTime 7 then click Continue to start the installation.
    If it is there you may try to move the iPhoto prefernce file to another folder and let iPhoto create a new one.
    Please keep the old file until you are sure that iPhoto works how it should.
    The iPhoto preference file can be found under your home folder then Library then Preferences and there
    com.apple.iPhoto.plist
    As alraedy mentioned do not delet this file, since if something goes wrong you can put it back.

  • Front row cannot play video on my shared network? not recognized? HELP!

    When i launch my front row on my macbook it informs me that there are no videos being shared on my mini. But when i review the mini inside itunes i clearly see all the content and can play it. Any ideas why itunes and front row would not work together? It worked fine in the past, but the last two upgrades knocked it out. Both units are fully updated.

    That is strange, it sounds like it should be working. I might try to create a new user with the Accounts System Preferences on the MacBook, log out and log in as the new user. Can the new user find the shared videos in Front Row? If not, then you have some kind of system-wide problem. If they can find the shared videos, then your original user has a preference or configuration issue.

  • QuickTime and iTunes video playing fullscreen on external monitor automatic

    Hello, on my Toshiba laptop with nVidia video card, I have an external monitor hooked up to the laptop. Every time I go to play video from QuickTime or iTunes, it plays the video at full screen size on the external monitor while also playing in the normal small window of QuickTime or iTunes on the main (laptop) LCD. I don't have the QuickTime Pro key installed on this machine, nor have I somehow selected to play videos at full screen. It does this whether I want to do it or not, which is quite annoying as the full screen version is usually flickering to boot.
    Help please. I've looked in the QuickTime Control Panel and don't see anything that would cause this problem, nor in iTunes.
    Cheers, Andrew.

    A couple of things you might want to try. Open the QT Player settings, not to be confused with the QT Control panel. There should be settings in there for monitors and dual monitors I believe.
    For the flickering, open the Display control panel>Settings>Advanced>Monitor. Listed under Monitor settings-Screen refresh rate: try changing the setting to 85 Hertz.

  • How do I stop Firefox from playing video after I navigate from the page or leave Firefox?

    Simple and annoying. . Extremely frustrating issue with Firefox for Android. ..
    I watch a YouTube video or any flash video. . And after I hit play, the ONLY way to stop it is to hit pause or let it play to the end or close the tab. .
    It will NOT automatically stop if I open another tab. or if I navigate from Firefox. .
    I feel this is a very basic feature. Did I set something up that was wrong?
    Can I ask two questions?
    I have another extremely annoying and frustrating problem with Firefox for Android.
    The "top" (if you pull down the tabs) search bar DOES NOT allow my stock Samsung keyboard to auto space. . Thus instead of typing
    "How do I stop Firefox from playing video after I navigate from the page or leave Firefox?"
    I'll type in
    "HowdoIstopFirefoxfromplayingvideoafterInavigatefromthepageorleaveFirefox?"
    Unless I manually got the space bar.
    Using a recently factory data reset Samsung Galaxy s4 active.. android 4.2.2 and stock Samsung keyboard ... Firefox 34.0.1
    Thanks in advanced.
    Ps
    I was a hardcore xscope user for years and just recently gave in to Firefox when i lost all my bookmarks due to a forced factory data reset. .

    I'm using a different keyboard which works fine in the most top search bar...
    I cannot believe that it's not a feature.
    What if I was watching a video and wanted to shut it off quickly? I'll have to hit back? Wait for the previous screen to load then hit the power button?
    Please tell me that feature ids soon to come

  • ITunes 7.4 will not stream video through front row

    I just updated both my macbook pro and my mac mini to iTunes 7.4.1(2). I also updated the firmware for my airport extreme base station. I can no longer stream video using front-row. This happened before when I updated to iTunes 7.2! I suspect, like before, apple will have to send out a patch. Anyone else expierenced this?

    Try turning IPv6 ON in your network preferences - this is helping SOME people with this problem. It won't help you at all if your network router doesn't do IPv6.
    To turn on: go to Network Preferences, select the interface you use, under teh TCP/IP tab click 'Configure IPv6', and choose 'Automatic'. Save changes.

    how can i play videos directly in player using html hyperlink in Mac???

    What does any of this have to do with Java?
    It sounds like you've misconfigured your browser, but I'm not sure what you're even talking about.
    You know that apple.com has all sorts of forums for mac users, right?

  • Playing video through frontrow onto HDTV

    I am wondering if I use frontrow to play a video, and I connect my computer to my HDTV with an HDMI cable, will it play show the same quality over the HDTV or can I expect some loss in quality? If there is loss, is there some better way to play videos over the tv?

    TV screens, even HDTVs, don't always make the best computer displays. How big is your HDTV? Your MacBook's screen is 1280 x 800 in a 13" (diagonal) screen. This means you have approximately 100 pixels per inch. If your HDTV is running at full 1920 x 1080 (there are other resolutions for "HDTV") but it's 52" (diagonal) then you're only getting about 60 pixels per inch. The pixels themselves will be larger giving you a less crisp display.
    Also, exactly what kinds of videos are you going to display? Purchased videos from iTunes? A DVD movie? An HD movie trailer from the QuickTime web site? A Blue-Ray movie? Higher resolution videos will give you a different experience. But the MacBook won't lower the quality of the original video you're playing to get it to display on an HDTV.
    Personally, my iMac is connected to my HDTV and I use it as a DVR with my EyeTV Hybrid to get over-the-air HDTV. It's also used as my DVD player as it's also connected to my stereo for surround sound. I also download my purchased iTunes videos to that computer (the music is duplicated on both the MacBook and iMac, though). All three options look fantastic on my HDTV. I couldn't be happier with the quality. I don't do a whole lot of Front Row on the iMac since it only displays on the iMac's built-in screen unless you "mirror" the two displays and that doesn't always work correctly. But, with a MacBook, you could attach the computer to the HDTV, close the MacBook's screen and use the HDTV at full resolution as the only display. (You can wake the MacBook with the remote after closing it.) Your exact experience will depend on the TV and the types of videos you're playing.

  • Cannot play videos in iPhoto since SL upgrade

    Since I upgraded to SL, it appears that I cannot play videos that I have loaded to iPhoto. I go into an event in iPhoto in which I have some digital camera videos and they do not play. These used to open in QuickTime and run fine. When I click on the video and choose "Show File", it will show me where the file lives. These are fine on my computer and can now run them from here, but it used to work right in iPhoto. Has anybody had this happen to them? Is it a bug with SL or is there a new setting or something I am missing? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    Yes, it's a bug. Have you applied the Mac OS X v10.6.1 Update? If not do so and try again. If that doesn't work all we can do is report the problem to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier versions) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
    NOTE: The new rebuild option in iPhoto 09 (v. 8.0.2), Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" makes this tip obsolete.

  • Scrolling through videos freezes Front Row

    I have many home videos in iTunes and thus Front Row. When scrolling up and down the list of videos in Front Row, I see the thumbnail sized videos begin to run. Eventually Front Row freezes when scrolling up/down through the list. Remote doesn't respond, keyboard and mouse do not respond and ultimately I have to either remotely logon and kill FrontRow.app or reboot. I know that all of these videos are playable without error using the QT player and in iTunes so the files are OK and furthermore are playable in the thumbnails again the next time in FrontRow.
    Anyone see this problem and know how to fix or work around? Thanks in advance.
    BTW, these videos are full sized H.264 videos converted from DVDs I had previously made with a miniDV camcorder. I've played iPod sized versions of these videos in Front Row with no problem except that now I am using an HDTV and the iPod sized versions are no longer good enough.

    I agree, but the problem only occured while scrolling. I was able to play each of the videos beginning to end. The problem was reproducable over a short time but not with any particular set of videos. In any case, the problem did go away as I am able to scroll up/down through all the videos with no problem. There's also been a few firmware updates, OS updates, and quicktime updates. Any of these could have fixed the problem. I'm happy to have my 'media center' Mac back in action.

  • Playing video from web sites

    I keep getting messages staying that I need plugins to play video content from most web sites. When I go to the recomended sites to download the plugin I am unable to open the plugins on my Mac Book Pro. Is there a simple solution for this?

    Quiktime video should work fine.
    For windows media, you can download and install Windows Media Player 9, incwhich case Safari will prompt you with a message that it can't play the movie in the browser window, but will ask if you want to play it in a seperate application (i.e window media player). If you answer in the affirmative, Window Media Player 9 will automatically launch and try to play the movie - and fail 50% of the time.
    You can also download Flip for Mac, which adds windows media support for Quicktime. Meaning you will be able to play windows media player movies inside quicktime (embedded in web pages). The catch with this is that you have to force Safari to run under "Rosetta" - unless Flip for Mac has released a universal binary in the last few days.
    By the way, some people claim that even to get the windows media player solution to work (the one where it launches separately) you also need to set safari to run via Rosetta, but this is not the case.
    Long term, your best solution is the Flip 4 Mac add-on for Quicktime, but for now its a little quirky and we will just have to wait for them to update it to run universal.
