Preview of videos in Podcast Archive.

Hi all,
I'm using iWeb to publish a site with a bunch of home videos using iWeb's Podcast template. I've got 17 home videos on the main 'Podcast' page. It's great but for most of my home videos the first frame is black because they open up with a title page. So, on the podcast page in iWeb, all the pictures that preview and link to the videos are black.
In iDVD and iPhoto you can 'skim' through the video and pick the frame that you want to represent the file. I'm wondering if you can do this in the Podcast page in iWeb. Thanks!

I'm fairly sure the Inspector's QuickTime +"filmposter slider"+ (Poster Frame slider) was introduced in +iWeb 2+ in +iLife '08+ ~ if so, it's another reason to upgrade. The +Poster Frame+ slider is shown being used in this video tutorial:

  • I want to create an external video widget with iAd. I followed the steps and copied the Url and paste it in the Video pop-up menu in the Properties section of the inspector. When i select 'preview' the video doesn't play and the Url that i pasted is gone.

    i want to create an external video widget with iAd to use in an iBook. I followed the steps and copied the Url and paste it in the Video pop-up menu in the Properties section of the inspector. When i select 'preview' the video doesn't play and the Url that i pasted is gone.
    hope someone can help!

    May have something to do with whether or not the URL can be reached while building your widget.  I've got a video on the web. When I enter the URL into the field for the video object and click to another field,  the URL is replaced with some text indicating that it is accessing the video then updates itself to displaying just the name of the video file.
    It shows just fine in preview and I can see the full path to the video when I export the widget so it should work for you. 
    Is the video accessible from your Mac while you're laying out your widget?

  • Elements 12 Organizer unable to preview .mts video files

    I am using Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 and Premiere Elements 12 on Windows 8.1. I have the newest version of Apple QuickTime (7.7.6) installed.
    I import .mts video files from my Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF1 for organizing along my still photos. I am absolutely certain that previewing the video files in Elements Organizer used to work fine at least before I upgraded from Elements 11 to 12. Maybe it also has been working in Elements 12, but I cannot tell for sure. Now, instead of a preview, I get the error 'The selected file cannot be played because your system does not have the required compressor/decompressor (codec) installed'. If I add one of these files to an Premiere Elements video project, however, the file plays nicely from the Premiere timeline.
    I have tried downgrading my Quick Time versions all the way down to 7.3, with no result.
    Does anyone have an idea what might be wrong?

  • How do you preview the video effects?

    Hi,
    I am just wondering how to preview the video effects in Premiere Pro without having to add them to the timeline to view them. Anyone have any idea?
    Thanks in advance.

    Kerri,
    Much of where a Transition is positioned will depend on your Clips, themselves. Here's another topic for your "Autumn Reading List" - Handles.
    The understanding of these will go a very long way to understanding the placement and operation of Transitions.
    Here's a short bit on Handles, but the manual (if they still have those) and the Help files will give you a lot more info.
    Initially, Handles are a bit of an abstract concept, but once you get it, you'll fully understand some of the behavior of Transitions. Well worth reading.
    Good luck,

  • Coverflow for video and podcasts

    Has it been discussed about implementing coverflow for video and podcasts?
    This would make it so much easier to navigate and also help organize the files on the itouch and iphone.
    How serious is apple about implementing these, Im dying to get this for simple navigation and organizing needs.

    while deleting a thumbnail/icon (by hand or with cocothumbx) might be a quick solution for photos, i expect coverflow to handle this correctly for me. when dealing with thousands of photographs, automatic export from aperture, batch processing in photoshop/bridge etc, i shouldn't have to deal with thumbnails, should i?
    coverflow simply isn't where it should be. i also find it strange that quicklook and coverflow seam to use different algorithms to render files. try an adobe illustrator file for example. the finder doesn't show the content as icon (in a folder), coverflow renders the content/artboard correctly, quicklook only displays the oversized icon. what the...?

  • Elements 10 keeps crashing when previewing my video

    Windows 7 home premium SP1 64bit OS
    3.84gb RAM
    (no other programs running at the time)
    Elements 10.0 (20110902.Mol11.B123.280463)
    I've got a soundtrack and a few clips and sometimes when previewing the video it'll start out ok and then when it begins trying to play the first clip it'll just encounter an error and shut itself down. Reopening the file normally lets it work fine for a while but sometimes not. I've rendered the clips too.
    Any suggestions?

    This video and that audio are not going to work well in Premiere Elements, unfortunately.
    Your best bet is to use the project settings for Flip Mino HD to edit your video. And by all means convert that audio file to a WAV! (The free download Audacity will do it.)
    You're still going to have to render often as you work. (Press Enter whenever you see red lines above the clips on your timeline. When they're rendered they'll turn green.) You don't say how fast your projecessor is -- but you should get pretty decent editing performance with this video if you've got a quad core or i7 processor.
    And check out my free 8 part Basic Training tutorials. They cover the relevant aspects of the basics possibly better than Lynda's tutorials.

  • How to manage Music Videos and Podcasts of my iPod manually in iTune?

    Can anyone tell me how to manage Music Videos and Podcasts of my iPod manually in iTune? Because I can't see the Music Videos and the Podcast section in iTune under Device when my iPod is connected to my computer. Thanks

    iTunes doesn't have a separate *Music Videos* section. In iTunes these are just part of the main Music library. To manually drag a music video to yout iPod drag it onto the iPod or a compatible playlist. To remove, look for it in Music on the iPod and delete.
    I think podcasts only work properly when placed on the iPod via the sync tabs. If you manually drag and drop then the files may get treated as general audio & video files.

  • Preview for video or games never worked

    Hello,
    Since this feature exists I never could make it work: the preview for video clips or ipod games.
    At the time this feature appeared, I used the last version of iTunes with OS X 10.3.9 on a G4 400Mhz. I thought I had too old system and computer.
    But now I have iTunes 8.0.2 on OSX 10.5.5 on a G5 1,8Ghz and I still have the same problem: I can hear the sound of the preview but I only get a still image where a movie should appear.
    Which setting is wrong in my iTunes? I can't tell.
    Is there a way to correct this?

    Video playback is on our roadmap but is not available yet.

  • Video / Audio Podcast

    If I go to Music -> Podcast I can listen but not watch video podcasts. If I go to Video -> Video Podcasts I can't listen to audio podcasts. I wish there is a top level Podcast option that can do both so I don't have to switch menus when switching between video/audio podcasts.) There doesn't seem to be a way, is there?

    I'd be happy if they each had their own list and not mixed together in the audio list. If I want an audio podcast, I have to scroll through all the videos to get there! Seems to me keeping them in their own respective list would be more productive.

  • Firefox no longer creates previews for videos and music posted on my Facebook Timeline

    after its latests update to the Version 32, Firefox no longer creates previews for videos and music posted on my Facebook Timeline. in earlier Firefox versions there was no such problem. it started to happen exactly after its update, and it still works perfectly well in Chrome and other browsers.

    Any help would be appreiciated, using Chrome, Windows XP Pro with SP3, Pentium 4 2.4GHz, with 2GB Ram, with Nvidia Gforce 5200 video card! Too old a system??

    hi, all three are pretty much the same, and its not a buffering issue. I hav Verizon Fios and had a WUGNET speed test show download speed being 11.3 Mbps and upload of 1.24. It was possible the Html was slightly better but not by much.

    That should be fine for system specs.  My first guess would be network bandwidth issues.  Does it seem like the video/audio buffers fast enough or does the buffer continue to run out when the item is played? Try these two links out, do either of them play better? HTML5 videoNon-HTML5 video Thanks,Chris

  • Preview HTML5 videos with SCORM on iPad

    I am publishing HTML5 videos, with SCORM, for deployment on LMS.  Ultimately, users will watch these videos on their iPad.  I want to be able to preview these videos on my Ipad first...need to make sure formatting, quizzing, sequence, etc. are good.  What's the best way to do this?  Currently, I have to post the videos to the LMS temporarily.  Not a good solution.  I've tried posting them to a web server, but videos with the index_SCORM.htm file will not play.  Any ideas?

    Hi there,
    Thanks for reaching Adobe.
    You can test this through a free LMS called Scorm Cloud. It generates a link so you will just have to open that link on your ipad.
    Click here to go to Scorm Cloud.
    Hope this helps!
    Thanks!

  • I get a black capture screen (preview), but video captures fine.  What gives?

    I get a black capture screen when capturing with CS6 on a Windows 7 machine.  I'm capturing through Firewire from DV tape, via the VCR function of a Canon XL2 camera.  I have tried restarting, etc.; also toggled the "preview video" radio from the Settings button in the capture Window.  Nothing works and I need to be able to preview my video as I'm capturing.  It is not good enough that the video actually captures fine.  Also, I am forced to turn off Device Control in order to capture because it kicks me out of every capture (an immediate message of : "no frames captured") unless I do.  Please help.

    I'm not familiar with the process of rolling back to a previous update and I assume that is what you are suggesting?  It looks like I'm running 6.05.  Are you suggesting I roll all the way back to 6.00 past 6.04. 6.03, etc? And if I do roll back, does that mean I have to completely uninstall and reinstall CS6 first?  That would be a royal pain. 
    A little more updated info:  It's not just in attempting to capture from a DV tape that I get the black capture screen, but the live firewire signal is also black, though again it actaully captures just fine, I just cannot monitor the screen while doing it. 
    And it's definitely not something physical, like a bad firewire cable, because I also have the old 2.0 version of Premiere installed on the same machine so I tried an experiment:   I open CS6, then open the capture screen (which of course remains black).  So I close CS6 and open 2.0 and then open the capture window.  It too is black.  But if I restart my machine and open 2.0 without first opening CS6, and then open the capture window, the display is just fine.  So obviosuly some service from CS6 is remaining open when I close it and thus affecting 2.0.
    This problem is really starting to irritate me.

  • ITunes plays videos and podcasts when I click on music.

    Hi all I have a problem.
    when i click on music in the left menu. I notice when playign through my music set to randome that i get all media including podcasts, mpe books and other things that i woul dnot expect to be showing. I just want to randomly cycle through my music not listen to the books and podcasts etc.
    is there a way to resove this issue.
    OS: OSX 10.9.2, Mavericks
    Itunes: 11.1.5 (s) 64-bit
    Thanks for any ideas, tips, tricks and all you wish to share to help resolve this. 
    Edit: A good way to fix this would be able to select the type of media so it shows up in the right place. eg when importing or editing the album, file, cd podcast etc be able to select what type of media it is eg music, video, podcast, books and have the catogries show. only in what is selected. I have not come accross this feature.

    See:
    iTunes: May be unable to transfer videos to iPhone, iPad, or iPod
    iTunes: Frequently asked questions about viewing and syncing videos
    You may need a computer app like the free HandBrake to convert the format to one compatible with the iPod.

  • After the last iTunes update, I lost EVERYTHING in my iTunes library (music, videos and podcasts). How do I get them back?

    iTunes was just updated on my Windows 7 and now I lost EVERYTHING in my music library. All of my music that I added and purchased, all my videos (TV shows) and all of my podcasts (some of them are older podcasts that I was saving to listen to for later and I can't ever get them back because I don't subscribe to them now). How do I get all my files back? I'm so upset! I had a similar issue a earlier this year with an iTunes update. I wish I can keep everything the way it is without ever having to update the program. I either lose ALL my files or the program doesn't work right.
    Please help me.
    Thanks,
    Jenny
