QuickTime movies get contrasty in Keynote

My QT movies are more saturated and contrasty in Keynote than they are in Quicktime. There seem to be no Keynote settings that one can use to change the look of a QT movie. So what is happening? How can I make it stop?
I am not using any quicktime filters. The codec I'm using right now is ProRes422. But I'm not sure if that matters.

KeyNote simply hosts the QT movie, it doesn;t contorlo or edit it or anything. You have to regulate the look of the movie in an editor, like Final Cut Pro, Express, iMovie or even in QuickTime Pro edition, which allows you to add some image filters.

Where do QuickTime movies get saved?

Where does iPad save QuickTime movies that are part of an email? Can't find them although it prompts a save icon.

Depending upon the movie format, I'm not sure that you can save it. But if you were able to play it in the email, that would answer if the format is compatible.
The Photos App would be my first guess or the Videos App.

QuickTime movie in Keynote 3 want to export Keynote as QT

So I have a Keynote presentation. It is mostly images but 3 slides play small Quicktime movies. Interviews I did on DV, converted to 320x240 using Sorenson V3 and IMA 4:1 audio. In Keynote 3.0, they now have controls. They play great.
But I need to export the presentation so others can use it without keynote.
The only option seems to be exporting it as as a Quicktime movie.
Actually, with trial and error, the Quicktimes in the Quicktime play great. BUT are missing controls!
So anyone viewing the interactive Quicktime from a CD-R has no choice but to watch each clip. Longest is 17 minutes so a pause or stop is an option that is needed.
Does anyone know how to get those QT controls (or at least stop or pause) into the movie inside the exported interactive Quicktime from Keynote?
Is there a 3rd party solution? I'm desperate.
Alternatively, if anyone knows how to do same but as a Flash file, that would be fine too.
This was problem in Keynote 2.0 as well. My presentation size is big enough.
Considering the convergence of audio and video all over Apple product line, I just don't get why this was not considered for the 3.0 update. I want to export my lectures for students to self run. I'm probably not the only university professor who shows video and would like Apple to deal with this ASAP.

If you have Qt Pro, you can open the file and turn on a controller, then resave the file.

Help playing my quicktime movie on keynote

I have a movie on quicktime. It plays perfectly fine when played through quicktime.
I am making a presentation using keynote. I want to make one of my slides that movie. So I do exactly as I have been reading. Ok, so the movie is now on the slide, but all I see are the little white squares around it, no actual movie. Those same white squares that you get when your trying to move or select an item for edit. Anyways, I say well maybe it will play when I play my slide show. Still no movie. Sometimes I get a blank page when I get to the slide with the movie. Other times I get the actual control panal to play the movie, but yet not movie is playing regardless of how many times I rewind, and play etc.
Can keynote play quicktime movies? If so what is the format they have to be in. The format of the movie in quick time is
Apple Animation, 983 x 552, Millions+
Please help, I really need this movie for my presentation.

In the Inspector section find the Transitions controls. For that slide, select the delay time for the same length of time of the clip.
Not sure if that will solve it but it's worth a try. That's how I got my QT clip to play.
Good luck.

Putting a quicktime movie into keynote?

When I put a quicktime movie in to keynote it shows video controls in the raw set but when I export it to an interactive quicktime movie it does not show the video controls is there any way to show the videos controls?

EDIT: The below answer is wrong. I just read again, No, you can't do this in Keynote. Sorry!
Ohh, I think I get it. When you export as a normal movie, the controller is turned on by default. When you export an interactive movie, the standard controller is turned off. To turn this on for interactive movies, you'd have to have QuickTime Pro, open the movie, do a command-J to open the properties, go into the Presentation tab and change "Movie Controller Type" from "None Movie Controller" to "Movie Controller".

Interactive Quicktime Movie Events (Keynote)

I'm developing an AIR app that lets the user play a quicktime .mov from their computer. This movie will most likely come from an exported Keynote presentation.
In case you're not familiar, Keynote lets you export a quicktime movie that is interactive... it will automatically pause after each transition and you can click anywhere on the movie to make it continue to the next slide.
In the flash VideoDisplay component it plays right through these "pause points" instead of stopping automatically.
Is there any way to have quicktime movies automatically pause at those points? Or is there a way to at least get a callback when they're supposed to happen so that I can pause it manually with actionscript?
I know it sounds far fetched, but this would basically let you play a keynote presentation inside flash.

Welcome to the discussions, Christopher.
Over in the Keynote discussions we've been going over this for quite awhile. Unfortunately, there's no easy solution to your problem. I've even gone as far as attempting to preload the chapter track thinking that might solve the problem, but it doesn't work.
One thing I don't think I've tried is setting up the first slide to advance "on-click" so that there's no animation before the first transition. The problem, of course, is that there's no "loading" animation to let it know when it's ready to go.
Another thing I haven't tried but that might work is to create the movie so that it doesn't autoplay, and then, using the embed commands, set autoplay to be the full length of the movie (so that it will automatically play, but only after it's completely downloaded). Look here for the autoplay embed commands.

Looping Quicktime Movies in Keynote & Keeping them Looped when Rendered

Okay I have a quicktime movie that I am using as the background of my slide show. I have text fly in and out over the movie. I can get the movie to loop when I view the slideshow but when I try to export the slideshow to Quicktime the Background quicktime movie only plays once and then stops. I want the quicktime background to continue to loop when I render the entire slideshow to quicktime. And yes I have checked the loop box in the quicktime tab in the inspector window. Please Help!

Yes, it is one slide with layered builds going in and out. The first 2 times I tried this it worked then on the same keynote file it stopped working on the second render and now it does not work even if I create a new file.
While I do understand that I could make my slideshow, time it and loop the movies together in iMovie I do not feel that I should have to render two separate things loosing quality on each render because of the time aspect.
Why would it work and all of a sudden stop? I should not have to go through iMovie making loops and rendering things twice when Keynote should be working.

Playing quicktime movies in Keynote 3

Hi, Is it possible to place two or more quicktime videos on a single keynote slide so they show without all simultaneously playing? I want to be able to click any of the videos so they play independently. I have tried various workarounds without success, but am getting very frustrated.
Comments greatly appreciated.
cheers,

The problem is, there's no build called "Play media" so, you have to do a work around. First you use any build (I usually use the appear build) on each movie, and check your timings. You won't see the movies before they play, but they'll play in the order you want. Then you have to basically take a screen shot of the movie, or open them in QT and copy one frame that you want to represent the movie. Paste that frame on the slide and stick it right where each movie is sitting, then send it behind the movie. You'll get something that LOOKS like a slide full of movies, and each time you click the mouse, each movie will come in on top of the picture of the movie and play.

Keynote '08 cannot export as Quicktime movie

I purchased KN '08 to create presentations. It is updated to version 4.0.2. I have tried for the last 3 hours to export my presentation as a Quicktime movie. No matter what functions I turn off, or change, nothing seems to work. In fact, after the 3rd attempt, Keynote erased some photos out of my presentation. When I tried to re-add them, Keynote said it couldn't because I didn't have access to the file, or there was damage to the files. Luckily I had back-ups I could access.
Is there a way to make this work? Why would Apple put out a product like this that doesn't work?
Robby

ditto. I have not been able export any of my presentations. Also, I could not get the recording to work consistently and correctly. I can't even get my PowerMac G5 with 5 GB RAM to play the slide show correctly.
I found that the only work around is using Snapz Pro X while stepping through the the slide show. This creates a high quality QT movie.
Keynote is not the only problem. Quick Time does not work properly either. Some movies, even high def movies, play flawlessly and some I take at only 640 x 480 gives me a "strobing" (flashing of white). This has happened in movies added to Keynote, movies streamed through Safari, and even some movies played in Quick Time Pro itself.
I thought I had a lemon MacBook Pro, since I'm now on my third logic board/video card since I purchased last July, but I think it is also a software issue. I was hoping that Leopard would magically repair the problems with Quick Time, but it has not.
Any suggestions in how to fix this would be appreciated. Why does some QT play without a problem and others so nasty? What is the ideal settings for a QT export? What is ideal resolution for movies included in Keynote to play without "strobing"?

Keynote does not support exporting with embedded Quicktime Movies

I hope this helps a few of you out before you run into this problem.
Keynote does not support export to Quicktime with any slides that contain a quicktime movie.
Created a 27 page slide show with transitions, music, narrations and 6 Quicktime movies (Actually LiveType Text scrolls)
When I attempted to export it never finishes the export cutting it short after about 20 pages.
And the pages with the movies, don't start playing.
It exports fine as a quicktime movie without the movies inserted though.
Spoke with Apple Support and they confirmed that quicktime placed files within Keynote playback is only supported from the native Keynote Application.
I read somewhere on this board that it was an issue with Quicktime version 7.5, not so as I tried the same test on a mac with Quicktime 7.42 and it had the same issue.
So, beware.

Maybe I didn't understand well what you said but it is possible to export a Keynote file with embedded Quicktime movies to a quicktime movie. Actually, I'm doing it and I works. BUT, the issue I get is that I can't get my embedded videos to loop. Grrr...

Exporting Keynote to Quicktime movie with audio

I am struggling to get this to work although I have done so previously. I have a fully functioning keynote with an embedded quicktime movie and an audio file. The Keynote works fine.
When I try to export it I just get the audio file!! I am opting for 'manual' even thought the Keynote is a looped production without the need for any manual input.
Any ideas? thanks

Exporting to Quicktime with sound seems to have been restored ok in Keynote 09 as I have just tested it on the trial download copy. Up until then I have been importing into Garage Band without sound and adding it there which is successful but I think the quality of picture is better with only one step i.e within Keynote itself.

How can I get a Quicktime movie to play over a background slideshow?

I created a slideshow in PowerPoint 2003 a few years ago and would like to update it using Keynote '09. PowerPoint had a "play once" and a "Play in foreground" option that let the movie play in the same spot continuously until the last of the 21 slides are displayed. The slides were timed with background graphics and lyrics that matched the song being sung in the Quicktime movie.
It's a song my daughter wrote and performed and it's something I think could be vastly improved using Keynote's amazing transitions, etc.
When I tried simply importing the presentation from PowerPoint, the video will start to play but when the second slide is displayed, the video is no longer visible. I tried to set Keynote to play it on all slides, but that just restarts the audio to a "row row your boat" round kind of thing. The video doesn't play on the remaining slides.
Is there a way to make this happen?
Thanks!

That's a shame. It takes some tweaking, but PowerPoint can do this. I know it's not something that is needed all the time, but it's something I've needed on a few occasions. I wonder how well the timing would work out if I broke the video up into sub clips and simply assigned a clip to each slide? It's a lot more work and I suspect I'll pick up some clips and pops during the slide changes.
Keynote is still far better at what it does than PowerPoint, but do I ever wish it could do this so I could really show it off to people.
Thanks for the reply!

I am unable to upload Quicktime movies made with imovie to the web. I've tried using Filezilla (which worked well until recently) or even going directly to the webhost via Cox. The upload gets caught in a loop. nojo99

Saving Quicktime Movies in Keynote

I'm using a 1GZ Power PC G4, with 768 ram, Keynote 3.02. When I insert a Quicktime movie into a Keynote theme (however short), it plays fine, but when I try to save it, Keynote crashes -- everytime! Any suggestions will be most appreciated.

You can have two movies playing simultaneously, either side by side or one on top of the other.

Interactive quicktime movie from keynote doesn't stream correctly on web

hello,
Any help with this would be extremely appreciated as I've been trying to solve the problem for 3 days straight. I've created an interactive slide show in keynote and now want to stream it on my website. The problem is that the finished product, a QuickTime movie keeps re-starting when it reaches the first interactive link until the movie is completely loaded. At that point it then correctly stops at the first link but by this time it has looped the beginning of my movie three times. I've tried figuring out a way to partially load the movie before it starts playing through JavaScript to no avail. I'd like to avoid loading the whole movie before starting it due to its length. If I have to pre-load the entire movie, I'd like a status bar for loading but controls hidden while it plays.
Help please!
