QuickTime 10 player controls annoying, can they be changed?

Hi,
The new player for QT10 has the player controls sitting on top of the actual video window, they do fade away and disappear once you hit play and move the mouse off the player, however, when the mouse is over the video window or the video is paused, the player control box sits permanently on the video. I can drag the player control box anywhere within the video box, but I can't get it out of the player. I would like it to live under the video image, below the player window. I can't find any options for changing this. This really is a HUGE annoyance for me. Does anyone know of a solution for this?

I use QT 7.6.3 Pro as the main Player/Editor and, after a bit of playing around, now have it set as the "default" non-iTunes movie file application under Snow Leopard.

  • Show quicktime player controls in Keynote for iOS?

    I am trying to build an interactive iPad presentation in Keynote, which is essentially a wrapper for hundreds of training videos. On the mac, you can pause and scrub through a video housed within a Keynote presentation but I do not see that option on iOS. Can anybody confirm this, or does somebody know a way to enable quicktime player controls on a video playing in Keynote?
    Thanks!

    FOUND THE SOLUTION:
    I had this same problem and this resolved it for me:
    -Go to your "Settings" icon and click on the "General" tab.
    -About 2/3 way down the page you will see "Use side switch to:" - make sure "mute" is checked rather than "lock rotation."
    -Then make sure the side switch, located next to the volume toggle switch on the side of your ipad, is moved to the right (no red dot showing).
    My audio worked fine in embedded videos after I did those two things.  Hope it works for you.

    In what file type and compression format did you download the YouTube content? I.e., to avoid such issues, you would normally download the source files as content that is natively compatible with your target player or convert incompatible file type/compression format combinations to files that are compatible with your targeted media player.

    I would only mention that your definition is incomplete for this -
    Contextual selector A type of Style Sheet Selector that
    and that it's most often referred to now as a Descendent selector, not a contextual selector.  It's basically the same as the Compound selector that you have already defined....

  • No Quicktime player controls in web browser plugins

    When using the Quicktime plugin under Firefox or Internet Explorer I do not get any player controls (play/pause, progress, volume etc). All that displays is a black bar where the control bar should be.
    I am running the latest version of Quicktime player (downloaded it yesterday). I am using Firefox 3 RC2 and Internet Explorer 7.
    Please advise how I can get the player controls to work, because as you can imagine, its pretty hard to play videos/sounds without them.

    I have seen similar problems on latest QuickTime v7.5.5 on Vista SP1 64bit platform... when viewing Lynda.com training videos under IE v7 and Firefox v3.02/v3.03. Specifically, the controls are not visible and/or do not work properly (eg reset to start when click on mid-point of timeline) and other times the video blanks out in windowed of full-screen mode with no suspend or power issues... and I am forced to restart QuickTime for video to re-display. The video controls in windowed mode also sometimes do not work.
    I found the solution was to change the ADVANCED settings of the QUICKTIME player...
    Open Quicktime 7 player... but do not open any content.
    Click on Edit tab and go to Preferences, then click on Quicktime Preference.
    On window that opens, click on the Advanced tab
    You will see a selection under VIDEO heading for Safe Mode (GDI only) or Direct X.... click on Safe mode (GDI only)
    Then click on Apply, then OK.
    Restart Quicktime and play a movie to test it.
    For me, this resolved all my problems... even though had latest DirectX installed. I hope this helps in your case!

  • HELP! QuickTime Player says it can't read .mov files

    I have .mov on an external hard drive. When I connect it to my MacBook Pro I can see all the files, which are in .mov format, but QuickTime Player says "The document “BSOL1480_01.MOV” could not be opened. The movie is not in a format that QuickTime Player understands."
    How can I fix/change this?

    Did you try playing the file with Quicktime 7? Do you have Perian, Flip4Mac or VLC installed?

  • Quicktime Player states "You can't open the application QuickTime because the Classic environment is no longer supported."  I just installed Mac OSX Snow Leopard.  What do I need to do?

    I just installed Mac OSX (10.6.8) and can not get Quick time player to work.  When I go to the Apple site to download a version that will work, it states that Quick Time Player automatically comes with OSX.  What do I need to do to use Quick Time Player with 10.6.8

    Mac OS X 10.6 includes QuickTime versions 10.0 and 7.6.3. The QuickTime 7 player will only be present if a QuickTime Pro key was present at the time of installation, or if specified as part of a custom install, or individually downloaded:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/dl923
    Snow Leopard update 10.6.4 included an update to 7.6.6 (if installed). You can install it from the above link  even though it says for 10.6.3. It's the same version of QuickTime Player 7.6.6.
    (Only QuickTime Player 7.6.3 or 7.6.6 can be updated to "Pro".)

  • I'm trying to find the latest version of Quicktime player that I can load to my computer. I've got an old PPC and am running OS 10.4.11. Can anyone help?

  • Quicktime player... can't find export function

    I recorded a new audio file using the Quicktime player 10 on my Macbook, but when I go to "File", there is no "Export" function.
    When I choose "Save As" my only options are to save the file as a .mov or for the iphone. Why is there no functionality for me to export my audio file as an m4a (m-peg)?
    After reading various online tutorials, I used iTunes to convert my file to an m4a file, but it came out at 42 MB, more than twice the size of the original .mov!! How can I save my audio file (which was about 20 min) as a smaller sized audio file (either mpeg or mp3)? Also, is there a difference in saving it as mpeg or mp3? (That is, if I do need to download another converter, which should I convert to? an Mpeg or Mp3?)
    Thanks!

    QuickTime version 10 doesn't include any export options.
    iTunes can make an AAC version which will be as small as an .mp3 file.

  • Quicktime Player controls -- able to move outside of window?

    Hi, when playing quicktime movies in the regular sized window in which they pop up (not full screen, etc) is it possible to move the control display (for play, reverse, etc) outside of the window?
    thanks

    You can move it around but can't move it off the window.

  • How are collections defined in the new 'Photos' app? and can they be changed?

    Hi
    I was just having a look at my photo collection on my mac and realised that when in the year view all the photos orders seem to be correct, but when I zoomed in a level to collections, some of the older photos jumped to the end - I realised this was because the date range of the most recent collection spanned a long time period and so got pushed back in the list.
    This got me thinking.. what actually defines the collections? and am i able to change whats in the collections?  I keep getting confused when the photos keep jumping around when I zoom in and out of each level
    thanks for your help!

    what actually defines the collections? and am i able to change whats in the collections?
    Apple is not very specific about collections and Moments.
    The Help says:  https://help.apple.com/photos/mac/1.0/?lang=en#/pht56eafa987
    A moment is a group of photos and videos taken around the same time and in the same place—for example, an afternoon at the beach.
    A collection is a group of related moments—for example, your entire beach vacation.
    The Years view groups all of your photos taken in the same year together, so you can quickly view your entire library at a glance. You can also view your photos individually to see more detail and make edits.
    and am i able to change whats in the collections?
    No way.  The partitioning in moments, collections, years is automatic.  You would have to adjust the dates, to force a different grouping.
    The help text on years does not seem to be correct. I am seeing larger year groups in my library than just one year of photos in a year:

  • Sidebar icons: can they be changed?

    I've added .Trash to my Finder sidebar so I can drag items to the trash.
    I would like to change the blue folder icon to a Trash bin (and wouldn't mind changing the other sidebar icons as well).
    Is it possible to change them? And if so, how?
    Thanks!
    (I own CandyBar, but not sure it allows you to change an individual folder icon).

    The items in the Sidebar are aliases to the original item. If the original item has a custom icon that icon will be displayed in the Sidebar when you drag the item there. You can use GetInfo to change individual folder icons. Find something that has an icon you like, do GetInfo on it, click the wee little icon at the top to select it (a very faint blue line appears when the icon is selected), and select Copy. Then do GetInfo on the folder you want to have the new icon, select the wee little generic folder icon at the top, and Paste.

  • Title Font Defaults - Can they be Changed?

    I do not like the default font and size on the Title pane I have chosen. Can these be defaulted to something else? If so, how do I change for the entire project versus having to change each clip?

    Welcome to the  Discussion Forums.
    Not done this for a while but I think once you change the font, next time you open a title it sticks. Can't be absolutely sure but either way it still means you'll need to change all those done already, manually one by one.
