Reparenting video controls - lose handles

I've built a movie clip (vidPlayer) that has an FLVPlayback
component, and a drawer clip (drawer) that holds a playPause
component, volumeBar component and seekBar component. This whole
clip gets passed around to different clips that show videos.
Problem is that when I reparent the vidPlayer clip, it takes
everything except for the seekBarHandle and volumeBarHandle. I
managed to track down the handles and set variables to hold them.
When I trace the parent of the handles after reparenting
vidPlayer (expecting to get "drawer"), I get null. So I then
reparent the handles back into drawer, and they show up, but they
are no longer attached to the components that created them and I
get errors when I try to interact with them.
Any idea how I might get around this?
Thanks for any help.

Well, I kind of have to reparent, and I don't want to garbage
collect the previously used items - I want to keep using the same
components in various places, and it seems like I ought to be able
to...

  • Video controls in keynote 2013

    how do you make the video controls disappear in presentation mode in keynote 2013?
    it use to time out on keynote 09

    I gotta say that while I appreciate Keynote's ability to handle large file sizes and embed media, I baulk at a single file of 4GB.
    Having discovered my file has blown out to that size, I would likely choose a spot to split the file and do my best to seamlessly move from one stack to the next. We will have to wait for the engineering team to return hyperlinking between stacks which was removed in Keynote 6, so as to make the transition between stacks much easier and semi-automatic.
    My fear with a file size this big is a crash, and then waiting for it to load in when Keynote restarts. I'm guessing you're doing lots of "can I break this file" testing before unleashing it on your audience.
    I always wondered when Apple did its 500 slide keynotes at Macworld or WWDC if it swapped stacks during the live demos. No doubt there are multiple redundancies built into their "just has to work" presentations, but still, we've seen these things fall over when Steve J. was doing the keynotes. Remember when he told the story of Woz controlling TV sets with a remote, while Jobs waited for his presentation to be restored? Was it 2008?

  • How do you add visual video controls to widget video in ibooks author?

    How do you add video controls to video using ibooks author?

    I have the same question as VideoImage. I would like the controls to appear in some of my videos so that the reader can speed them up or slow them down. This would save me having to run them through iMovie at 4X say and saving them that way. As far as I can see, the video fast forward, fast reverse, go to end, go to beginning controls only appear in the Widget inspector. What is their purpose then?

  • IPad Videos touchscreen unresponsive to show video controls

    Hello,
    I've searched the archives thoroughly on this one and have found others with the same problem, but no solution. When using the Videos app, after a video has been playing for more than a couple of seconds the touchscreen becomes completely unresponsive, and I cannot bring up the video controls (pause, etc.) The only option I have at this point is the home button.
    Has anyone else had this problem and found a solution?
    BTW my iOS version is 3.2.1.
    Thanks!

    Last night I downloaded flipboard and I messed up the window order (prompt should have been active but the app behind the alert prompt was actually active, really strange) and i count not use the touchscreen at all even when I left the app. I toggled the screen and it all came back.

  • OS 10.3.9 and QT Pro 7 = no video controls

    I went against my normal behavior and obeyed when the computer said to upgrade from QuicktimePro 6 to Quicktime 7.0. Then discovered I had to pay another $30 to make it be the Pro version But no video controls are there - apparently I must first buy various upgrades, like a new computer, it sounds like from the forums. Video controls are why I originally bought Quicktime Pro. I could have gone back to v.6 from 7.0, but not if I'm as high as 7.1.3 (I am). At first I thought I could go back to 6 Pro and use the Pro 7 license for the husband's WindowsXP upstairs. You can't even use the license key in Windows, though.
    I think this is outrageous. Does Apple know how angry people get when they feel tricked? Most people don't have money to keep buying lots of computer stuff. Or want to be eternally tinkering.
    Is there a (preferably free) program that will brighten a .mov, .mpeg-2, .mp4...or adjust contrast? I couldn't make mpeg streamclip do it yesterday. Oh, I did try exporting .mov to .mov to make those adjustments, and the result was a bad degradation.

    I didn't miss having Quicktime 7 for 2 years untill I encountered a video that wouldn't play without it, as I recall. I was making a lot of videos and wanted to try new features, as well.
    Yes - I thought I would register with the same registration number I had before. Why worry if Installation says older Pro versions won't work - wouldn't the new one be all that and better?
    The info page http://www.apple.com/quicktime/player/mac.html says you'll have the a/v extra features if you have Tiger and a graphics card. I thought the other way to have the features would be to get the Pro version, like it worked for Quicktime 6. Bad assumption. Do the auto-updates with checkboxes that suddenly appear on our screens even send us to that info page?
    For simpletons (we are legion) they could say for instance "your computer may not have enough power for the free Quicktime 7 a/v features or smooth streaming video (apparently) etc, even if you're running Tiger"......Quicktime 7 is simply labeled, in Versiontracker for instance, as designed for system 10.3.9 and up.
    I didn't mind paying the $30 for QT7Pro version, but was surprised that I ended up with less useful everyday features than I'd had. I felt tricked, but I don't read slowly and carefully enough, and I know Apple wasn't trying to trick me, just push me toward their store.
    fflynn - thanks for the idea. It sounds brilliant. Setting up a separate volume - not sure what that is - sounds scary, but I'll learn today.

  • Video Control Bar in Flash Displays on HD but Not From Webserver

    I am using Flash Pro 8 - putting FLV files in SWF files using
    Flash Pro 8 and then "publishing" to Html and SWF to a location on
    my hard drive.
    When I display the webpage from my Hard Drive from where ever
    on my hard drive I initially published to from Flash 8 Pro -
    everything works fine - videos play and video control bar shows and
    works.
    When I publish this website to web server the video displays
    and plays but NO Video Controller Bar (at bottom of the video)
    shows at all.
    Symptom: when I make an Html, SWF and FLA file into a folder
    on my hard drive and display them in the browser the video control
    bar shows. When I copy those three files into the hard drive
    website in FrontPage, the video shows but the video control bar
    does not.
    So, I re-made the Html, SWF, and FLA files and put them
    directly into the FrontPage website (on my hard drive) then
    everything works fine when I use broswer (IE 6 or Firefox). z
    But, when I publish the hard drive website to the remote
    website hosting company, the video control bar disappears -
    everything else works fine (video shows OK just no video controller
    bar.)
    My guess is that the SWF file has a non-relative URL
    reference concerning the video control bar and when the three files
    (Html, SWF and FLA) are moved to new location then that
    non-relative address rears its head.
    I should NOT publish from Flash 8 Pro directly to remote
    webserver as it has FrontPage Extensions and does not like to talk
    to FTP changes to website not coming from FrontPage client.
    is my guess right? What to do?????

    1. When I encoded the video in flash I selected one of the
    pre-packaged control bars (so the user can control basic
    functions). I then published an HTML and a .swf. The HTML works
    perfectly however when I use Dreamweaver to insert the .swf it does
    not carry over the control bar. I have tried pulling over the
    control bar .swf and placing it under the video file but a HUGE
    object is imported with a bunch of controls that do not work (bunch
    of controls = play/pause/etc).
    make sure the component skin is uploaded in same directory as
    swf, movie, html
    quote:
    The second issue is this; the user still has to click once on
    the video to use the controls... does anyone know what I am doing
    wrong on the video file?

  • Can you put Video Controls on an .flv video?

    I have an .flv file in my .fla file.  However, when I play the movie, it simply plays the movie along the timeline.  Is there a way to put video controls on this file?  Or do I need to use the videoPlayback option?
    If I do need to use the videoPlayback option, how do I make sure that the video always work, even if I move it to a different computer (because the references to the movie will change)?
    Thank you very much in advanced.

    Hi Ned,
    Thank you for your reply!
    I guess I mean that when I specify the path to my flv file and I export the swf file, the swf won't play the flv video if I move the swf file to another computer.  Does that make sense?
    Thank you for the answer though, I will use FLVPlayback!

  • Customize video control?

    Is it possible to customize the video control barre?
    It's really anoying that the control barre is inside the video fram, when viewed in the "not full screen" version.
    And it would be nice if the user could toggle it on and off.
    What is the solution for that?
    Try to compare with the solution they have in Project Magazine, witch is very cool. How is that done?
    Thanks

    I'm not sure you can do it that way. You can rotate a picture indicator. You might need to resize your image and put the axis of rotation in the center. Maybe also add some alpha transparency. Here is a link to the rotate picture. I modified it a bit to resize based on the input picture.

  • Flash Video Controls Not Showing in Page

    Have DWCS3 on XP
    I have a flash video file that was created with controls.
    There seems to be a checkbox for controls in
    Dreamweaver...BUT...when I play the video locally or on the
    server...the controls are absent.
    Did a search...What am I missing
    Thanks!

    Did you upload the video control images to server? Did you
    upload the SWF
    file? Can you post a link to the page so we can see the code
    and supporting
    files?

  • Video controls in iBooks for Mac

    I'm producing a Fixed Layout ePub, with video and animation.
    Some videos fit the width of the page, nothing to report on iPad reading, but on iBooks for Mac I can't play the video because "play" button is "under" the iBooks "turn page" button!
    I see video controls "iPad-like" on Mac, in books like "Yellow Submarine": I've tried to see the code but these books are encrypted.. any help?

  • Keynote 6.2.2: No video controls

    I don't have any video controls.  I have "Show playback controls when pointer is over a movie" checked but it doesn't do anything in preview or in play mode.
    There is a go button which toggles on and off which is visible when the video is selected and that's it. It makes it difficult to trim the clip with no way to see the time with sound on. If it just tracked in the Format - Movie dialogue it would be helpful.
    Please advise.
    Thank you

    I have "Show playback controls when pointer is over a movie" checked but it doesn't do anything in preview or in play mode.
    The movie must be playing and the mouse moved across the video before the playback control will be seen.
    It makes it difficult to trim the clip with no way to see the time with sound on.
    To trim a clip, select the clip on the slide:   Inspector > Document > Movie > Edit Movie, then adjust the trim in and out points using the slider. The in and out points in the video are seen on the slide.
