Quicktime-Heavy Page solutions?

I work as a video editor and am updating my online reel using iWeb '08. Currently, I use pop-up windows for all my Quicktimes (the window pops up when visitors click the "play" button on a jpeg still of the clip). The problem is, some less computer-savvy/lazier potential clients may not bother to enable pop-ups. Originally, I had all the quicktimes just embedded in the page, but on my "TV Network Promos" page, that means 8 quicktimes which seriously impedes the page's loadtime. I don't want to sacrifice any more quality by making the quicktimes even smaller (they're already around 3.8 megs for a 30 second TV commercial). Is there a way to embed the quicktimes directly in the page, but not load them until you click on them? Preferably with a "play" button or icon?
Here's a link: http://web.me.com/roncutz/roncutz/TVnetworkpromos.html
Thanks all!

  • Missing radio buttons on web pages, solution: remove Silverlight plug-in

    Missing radio buttons.
    When trying to use a page with radio buttons..they were not appearing.
    Cause: Microsoft Silverlight plug-in that was installed along with free Flip4Mac software.
    Solution: Remove file 'Silverlight.plugin' from /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    (Also, the plug-in was taking over display of Quicktime movies replacing Quicktime's controls.)

    Above is a solution to help others with same problem due to Microsoft Silverlight plug-in.

  • Multiple page solution

    I'm trying to built web page at Dreamweaver 8 for
    commercially selling product, but it's going to be more than 100
    pages, since each single image I click, it have to creat new page
    for large view. Is there any solution to reduce pages. I'm not
    quite familiar with dynamic dreamweaver either.

    Consider using templates to avoid duplicating unnecessary
    repeating page content, such as navigation, banners and footers.
    You do not need to make separate pages for different images.
    If you are building an image gallery of commercial products you can
    use several different methods to show larger images (from
    thumbnails) on the same page.
    A bigger problem is your unfamiliarity with dynamic
    applications, which is a major hurdle if you want to create a
    secure, robust e-commerce site.
    I recommend a lot of research into e-commerce, database and
    secure application and data handling before you start to build your
    web site. Also, 100 pages is not a great deal of pages for even a
    modest e-commerce Web site.

  • Firefox stops loading pages after trying to open a heavy page

    firefox stops loading pages after trying to open a page with alot of pictures etc, with big size. it just keeps on loading pages with no result.
    my internet is fairly low speed so i take my time but this happened each time i tried to open such sites.
    even when i close that '''tab''' and try to open just '''google.com''' , it wont load.
    its solved after closing and opening firefox again . but happens again if i try to open the same heavy site

    Which security software (firewall, anti-virus) do you have?
    A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.
    See:

  • Lost all bookmarks after upgrading to FF4 and help page solutions no help

    Upgraded to FF4. All was well for the first few days then all of a sudden my bookmarks were gone. I've been through all the topics on the help page and still cannot access any bookmarks or even add new bookmarks. Bookmarks is just totally disabled. Went back to IE but hate how slow it is. I just want to be able to create new bookmarks if I can't find my old ones.

    See my solution at http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=11757732#11757732
    It's pretty much guaranteed to work if it's at all possible to recover your contacts, although other simpler solutions may work too and some are discussed there.

  • Quicktime under page on Exporer

    Hi,
    Mysite works fine on Safari, Firefox (even PC) but as one problem on Explorer (6.0) on a PC:
    The Quicktime that is usualy on the center of my page gets under the page (creating therfore a longer page). It doesn't open and just leave a blank frame and a "something that didn't open" small logo.
    The page is very basic, no text or frame overlay, the name of the page is in abc...
    Any idea? Thanks a lot.

    Doesn't work on any Explorer: 5.5 - 6 and 7.
    Here is a screen capture:
    http://www.box.net/shared/static/pmnu7dre25.jpg
    This is the original iWeb page !
    The "Film" doesn't show up in the center and an empty frame (here croped) appears on the bottom with a small logo...
    Anybody sucedeed to publish a "Film" page ok for IE ???

  • Quicktime heavy weight components

    Hi guys,
    Im using the QT java api and have hit some problems with their AWT video window component. The reason I'm posting here rather than the QT forums is that I believe this problem is common to all heavy weight components in Java.
    Ok, the QT api offers a factory method for creating what they call QTComponent (awt heavy weight component - extends java.awt.component) which I add to a dedicated JPanel.
    I need to be able to set the visibility of the video window so I do;
    parent_panel.setVisible(value)
    parent_panel.repaint();
    parent_panel.invalidate();
    parent_panel.validate();
    which sets the parent JPanel visibility to hidden but does not hide the child video window. (note: this is called from the event dispatch thread).
    I have tried validate, invalidate, repaint (you name it), on both the parent JPanel and the java.awt.component itself, but this still doesn't fix the problem.
    One thing to note is that if I resize or minimize then maximize the container JFrame the video window disappears. So i'm guessing the handlers for these events execute routines I need to in my 'setvisible' method.
    If anyone could help that would be great.
    Many thanks,
    Alex

  • IMac freezes, screen flickers, simply power fails or restarts when visiting Javascript "heavy" pages in safari

    For the last couple of updates in Mavericks I'm having an issue on my 24" iMac (early-2009).
    Whenever Safari wants, it makes the screen show some graphical glitches and everything but the mouse are inoperable and that only to the extend of moving the cursor, because clicking doesn't do anything. Some other times the machine just crashes, on some few occasions it has even told me there was an error and has send an error report at apple.
    I tried disabling all 4 of my safari plug-ins and reseting everything in Safari, but nothing changed.
    Then I started playing around with detecting what might be causing this, so I have come to the conclusion of it being a JavaScript (or JQuery?) issue.
    Since I'm a programmer and a web-designer, I tested it on a few webpages created by me and I soon noticed that if I try to stretch out the usage of let's say a slider by clicking fast on the "next slide" it caused the issue.
    After that I checked and saw that indeed the more JavaScript calls a page has the more the chances of Safari "crashing" (I'm using quotes, because not once has simply safari crashed, that would be an improvement in my case!).
    All other major Browsers (Chrome, Firefox and Opera) don't seem to cause this issue, neither has this happened on any other occasion but when I'm working on Safari.
    Any ideas on what might be causing this and/or how to fix this?

    BTW, do you have any third party RAM installed? If yes, try removing and check for issue.

  • QuickTime start page (Hot Picks etc.) is hogging over 50% CPU

    If I say File --> New Player to get a blank player and then close the start page window, my CPU goes back down to zero.
    I guess this is a windows-only problem? It's the second major bug that I've found on the Windows version of the software since purchasing this morning. Apple, is anyone testing the Windows version before a release?

    daveboden, I don't doubt what your getting is not true. But on this computer with the same OS and version of QT, the results are different. Which would indicate that the problem is not being caused by QT software alone. Provided the version in the US and UK is the same.
    If you are running any spyware, adware, anti-virus, firewall, etc. I would disable it to see if you get the same result. Now you can disable the internet connection when doing that so you don't effect your internet security.
    I just don't see QT content guide grabbing half the CPU with your system.

  • PhotoSmart 2710 Printer Feeder cannot handle more than one page at a time

     1. Product Name and Number -> Photosmart 2710 Wireless All in One Printer
     2. Operating System installed (if applicable)  -> OSX 10.6 / 10.7
     3. Error message (if any)  -> None
     4. Any changes made to your system before the issue occurred -> None
    My printer works fine except that the paper feeder has difficulty feeding more than one sheet at a time.  When I put a stack of more than one sheet of paper in the feeder tray, the printer might successfully print one or two pages, but then pages will overlap (top of printed page is on one sheet, bottom on another or multiple sheets will be grabbed at the same time so only the first sheet gets printed and the others are blank.
    I do mostly standard office paper printing so no real experience with heavier pages.  I get my paper from Office Supply stores, like Staples, and brand does not seem to make a difference.  Have had same experience with Store Brands, National paper company brands and have even used HP branded paper with same results.
    I have no problems when I manually feed individual sheets to the printer  So I have essentially a single sheet printer.  Any help appreciated.
    Thank You

  • Quicktime 7.5  Visual Problem

    I know this topic has been discussed alot but I dont seem to have found a solution to solve my problem. I just got a new laptop and downloaded the latest version of quicktime to find out that I am not having any visuals just sound I have read many threads but none of the solutions seem to work, however I investigated and found out that the problem is with this codec (Streambox ACT- L2).This codec is responsible for the video streaming and use to be available through the Quicktime components page however now it is listed and not available for download not even the newer version ACT-L3. Does anybody know where I can download this codec? Thanks in advance.

  • Problems with Sound in Quicktime Pro

    Im having problems with my Quicktime Pro. Basically whenever i open up a movie file using Quicktime (.mov, .avi, .mpg, etc) the video will play but the audio jumps and sounds like B B B B B, K K K K, D D D D.
    It does this even if i open a Quicktime Movie (.avi or .mov) in another player because its still using the Quicktime codec.
    Ive asked for help on the Quicktime support page because i am a paying customer but they have not replied.
    It is a big problem for me due to my Pro Tools Audio Post work, which i cannot do at the moment bacause i cant even import a movie file because Pro Tools uses the Quicktime codec to import movies. Even software with videos that are in Quicktime format will not work.
    If anyone can make any suggestions on how i might overcome this problem i will be very thankfull if you would reply to this post.
    Thank You

    This is an inherent [feature|problem] with using POP - each client keeps track of which messages have been read or not, and has no idea of what other clients have done.
    The typical solution is to use IMAP rather than POP. IMAP keeps that data on the server, so it's easy for clients to see what's new and what isn't.
    I have no idea whether hotmail support IMAP, though. If they don't then consider changing your setup to a different provider if needs be.
