Pop-Up videos in CS 5.5?

Working on a presentation & wanted to know if it's possible to embed a pop-up video using the new CS 5.5 interactive features? For instance, we have a map & we want to click a point on the map & then have a video pop up over the map - doesn't have to be full screen but if that's the only way to do it then so be it... Please let me know if it's possible & how we go about doing it. Thanks so much!

You have clarify whether you're creating an interactive PDF or a SWF export. (If you're doing this for the Adobe Digital Publishing platform for the iPad, you need to ask in the DPS forum.)
I would place a button on the map (probably with a label). Set the action for the button to play the video. The video won't be able to be placed over the map in a PDF file. (In a SWF file, you might be able to animate it onto the page.). Give the movie no poster, but give it a controller.
The movie will be embedded in the page, and will play when you click the button in the PDF or SWF file. If you want it to float above the page in a PDF, you can edit it in Acrobat. Choose the Select Object tool in Acrobat X (Tools > Content > Select Object). Select the movie. Right-click and choose Properties. In the Properties dialog box, choose Playback Style > Play Content in Floating Window. Save the PDF file.

Create "Pop Up Video" graphic?

Does anyone know how to create a "pop up" video graphics as used in the pop up video classics of days gone by? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

But be prepared for the learning curve on Motion. After several years, I find it opaque and insanely frustrating compared to After Effects.
Creating the bubble effect isn't all that difficult, there may even be several elements in the Library that will adapt easily. The hard parts, the parts that will make you animation elegant and cool, are tweaking the keyframes or behaviors so the movements are non-linear and have some Looney Tunes-like class and personality to them. That is a far more difficult thing to do.

What is the best pop-up video player for flash?

I am looking for the best way to create/find a pop-up video player for my flash site.
Meaning, clicking on thumbnails on a site and a new window/video player pops up.
I would love to use Vimeo, but I can work with YourTube if that is all there is.
Any suggestions?
Thank you!

I do not used videolightbox, but it may work just fine....but have created a similar effect on my own:
http://www.hiesequim.com/education_center_test.html
The big blue button in the middle of the page is a Flash .swf which communicates to javascript to show/hide a <div> containing a Flash video player. In this case it's not a separate pop-up window but an overlay. the important thing is that you can communicate between Flash and javascript, which will do the pop-up.
So yes, you can create pretty much any type of pop-up you want. You'll be using actionscript in your tumbnails to communicate with javascript which will pop-open the window.
In AS2 you use getURL or ExternalInterface to communicate with javascript.

In AS3 :
http://simplistika.com/as3-javascript-communication/
For a pop-up window, you still need to create a second, actual html web page to hold the video player... embed Vimeo or whatever player you want.
You also need the javascript to do the pop-up:
http://www.javascript-coder.com/window-popup/javascript-window-open.phtml
or Google "javascript popup window" for tons more of examples.
If you are looking for more of the overlay type, like the link I posted above, the layout is a little different, you'll just be displaying a <div> which will hold your player instead of a whole separate page. Then you can use javascript show/hide:
http://www.randomsnippets.com/2008/02/12/how-to-hide-and-show-your-div/
or Google "javascript show hide" for tons more of examples.
So in your Flash, you use a thumbnail as a button which communicates to the javascript in the HTML section of your Web page (remember, there is no such thing as a Flash Web page, only HTML, PHP, ASP, etc pages which may happen to have some Flash content). The javascript then responds by opening a pop-up window which displays another HTML web page that you have created and has the Vimeo player displayed on that second, popup page.
Best of luck!

Looking for pop-up video preview template

Anyone know where to get a template that does pop-up video previews?
iStockphoto.com uses a system I like...
http://vimeo.com/8537562

I couldn't use your link but I think i have an idea about what you want....
try searching for "video lightbox"
http://www.shadowbox-js.com/index.html
http://videobox-lb.sourceforge.net/
http://videolightbox.com/
most of these solutions usually require you to click on a thumbnail image before you see something but I would like to think the javascript would allow for mouseOver events as well.

VH1 pop up video plugin?

I'm an amature imovie user, looking for a way to add an plugin to imovie similar to that seen in VH1's pop up video. Trying to add the "pop up" information bubbles for a wedding video under production. Has anyone seen anything like this or know where one could go about finding one?
I've exhausted my google searching.....
Thanks

You need to start a new thread, not tack onto the end of this one. No one will see your post.

Pop-Up Video

Does anyone know if there is a sound effect available that is similar to the sound they used on VH1 Pop-Up Video?

create hyperlinks within an image? You cannot "within an image".
I and other have developed a workaround for getting an image to appear to be the link. Do a forum search.

Quicktime Pop-up videos on my webpage

Forgive me for my inexperience - first time on a forum...
I am using FrontPage to design my webpage and working in Windows Internet Explorer.
*WHAT I'M TRYING TO ACCOMPLISH:*
On my webpage I want to have a selection of photos that link to (.mp4) videos. Clicking on a photo should open a smaller pop-up window (preferably without the blue browser border) with just the Quicktime player and the associated video, where the user can move the new window anywhere he wants while still viewing my webpage AND he can manipulate the video using the Quicktime buttons.
*HERE'S WHAT I HAVE SO FAR (BESIDES GREY HAIR):*
I have small photos (meant to be like links) and have created a "behavior" to "Open Browser Window" and play the associated video for each photo.
*WHAT I DESPERATELY NEED HELP WITH:*
1) I am not using a hyperlink on the photos to open the video (which I've tried) because they take the user to another browser window from which they have to hit the back key to return the the previous web page. If the user tries to close the window, he exits from my webpage completely. Consequently, by not using a hyperlink, there's no "hand" to indicate there's a video or a link to something else.
2) When in FrontPage and I Preview using Internet Explorer everything seems to work perfect (except the "hand" indicating a link is not there). However, when I publish, only the first photo opens and runs in the small pop-up window. When I click on the other photos a pop-up appears with a white background, looks like it's downloading and then nothing happens.
3) For the one video that plays, the player doesn't display much functionality and doesn't look anywhere near as nice as the Quicktime player that opens when I just click on the video from Explorer... that player doesn't have a browser box around it and it has a Quicktime menu at the top and at the botton it has large navigation buttons to select for Play, Rewind, Forward etc. It's much more professional looking. But first things first... gotta get those videos to play however I can.
PLEASE HELP!! GRATEFULLY INDEBTED!!

Look at the Poster Movie example code. A poster movie acts as a "placeholder" for your QuickTime file or it can also call the QuickTime Player (bypassing the plug-in).
The poster can be a still image file saved as a QuickTime .mov file (requires the Pro upgrade) and the extra html code to target="quicktimeplayer" in the object and embed tags.
One of mine as an example:

Flash Pop-Up Videos. Audio won't stop playing...

Hi. I am using a pop-up script to play some .flv videos on my
website. However, after you take the mouse off of the jpeg image
the video goes away, but the audio continues. Is there anything I
can put in my script to make the whole video stop playing? Is there
somekind of onmouseout tag or something that will stop the whole
thing?
Here is the mouseover code:
<a href="
http://www.mywebsite.com"><img
src="productimages4/%VAR(Products.d.code)%.jpg" width="111"
height="70"
onmouseover="showtrail('previews/flash/%VAR(Products.d.code)%256k.flv');"
onmouseout="hidetrail();" border="0"><br>
</a>
Thanks for any help!

Every time I've broken down and sent a question to the discussion board, I figure out the problem myself right afterwards. I worked at it for three days before submitting the question, then figured it out about 30 minutes later.
I was using INSERT - ANIMATION to insert the animation on a blank slide.
I found that what I SHOULD have been doing is using INSERT - OTHER SLIDES - ANIMATION SLIDE because that works beautifully.

Can you create "Pop Up Video" on an iMac?

Is there an application that let's you create videos with the pop-up boxes that you can put comments into?
I am using iMovie 08 and putting together a video mixing in photos and video from my daughters soccer team and I thought it would be cool to add in little pop-up boxes about the team members as the show plays.
I do not think iMovie 08 has this feature. Is it in iMovie 09? Do I need another app like Final Cut Express (ex: create movie in iMovie 08 and then export it to another app to add in these kinds of additional "pop up" features)?
Thanks in advance for your thoughts/advice.

to my knowledge, iMovie doesn't have capabilities for this sort of thing. As for iMovie '09, I highly doubt that it would do it ether (I'm still running '08).
FCE would definitely do what you want, but now you're talking some serious editing. Unless your in for a long haul, it takes quite a bit of learning to master FCE. Of course if you're into it, then it's fun!

Creating a 'pop-up' video media window

Hi ,
I'm new to Indesign and trying to create a video gallery (as part of a DPS app for iPad) using a large image as a background with numbered hotspot buttons. I would like each button, on release to pop-up a window that plays a video. However, I would like a close button too to hide the window. Has anyone managed this?
Regards
Mark

I did and although it all works on the desktop Adobe Content Viewer - on the iPad various issues appear.
1. The close button isn't hidden (until triggered) when it should be and is always visible. I'd rather it appeared from the tap on the hotspot.
2. The video appears sometimes, but maybe thats because the hotspot that actions the appearence of state 2 for the video and the close button is quite small... not sure.
3. The close button doesn't hide the video at all even though its set to change the video state back to 1.
I may have decided to try and do (for my first project in Indesign/DPS) things that its not ment to do, but its such a shame - a pop-up hotspot video gallery is quite a nice feature that may have been overlooked...

Can I create a pop up video in PDF

Hey there guys. I have a ebook I have just created and it is educational material. What I want is the 1 1/2 hour video to be above the book while they can turn pages according to what I am talking about. I have created the video file FLV and have the book ready to go. I know I can have them open the video themelves and place it there ... but my feeling is that there are allot of people that don't understand simple moving of open windows and will never get it right. I want it to be an easy open one file and it's all there kind of system.
Is it possible to have a floating video placed above the PDF or better yet a seperate framin in the PDF that does not change when the pages are changed. If not I will do the old fashion way and use html and embed the PDF and video in two frames. But I hate to have to do that ... one PDF would be great.
Thanks for your help in advance.
Troy
P.S. I have created the eBook in inDesign so if that helps happy for hints if it's not done in Acrobat.

Cannot be done. You might get away with having a flash video on each page that would open up when the page is turned. The flash video could be embedded into the pdf for hosted on the web or local server.

iMac G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

I just took a look through my apps and I have a program called Omnigraffle that came with the OS. You should be able to use that if you don't have photshop or Motion. Just create your pop up with text and export it as whatever kind of file you need.
I was able to crudely create one in about 2 minutes and I've never opened the program before.
