Revolving videos in keynote for website publishing

I want to publish various short testimony videos by customers on our website. I put each on a different slide and set the presentation on self-playing. The result I want is that the slides are looped so that visitors can see the revolving poster frame of each video for 3 seconds WITHOUT the video playing. Then, when the visitor clicks on the video, it should start playing and no longer revolve.
Somehow can't get it to work. Either the revolving doesn't work or the videos start playing right away, while revolving. = VERY FRUSTRATING
Any help would be much appreciated!

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.

Videos in keynote for ios do not play audio...

I have two quicktime videos that I want to play in a keynote presentation. The videos and their audio play perfectly out of my Photos folder on the iPad but when I insert them in a Keynote presentation, the video is great but the audio does not play. Help! I am using Keynote for ios. Would it help if I created the presentation on my mac and then sent it to the iPad?

Need good quality video to post for website, but under 2MB. How?

Hi all-
I need some help with exporting a video that will be viewed on a personal business website. I need it to look good, but the web designer says it must be no more than 2 MB. How do I export this 4 minute clip at a decent viewing size, with good quality and keep it so small? I have flipped through the Ken Stone articles and I get so overwhelmed by them. Is there an EASY way to do this?
Thanks sooo very much for any feedback.
Karen

Hi Peter -
Thanks for your response. The video is of a speaking presentation, to be shown to organizations on the web that might want to hire the speaker, so quality should be decent. So far I just did Ken Stone's recommendation of 320x240, H.264 @ 2000, mono, AAC 64 bit, best quality.... silly me. Of course that resulted in a 63.4 MB video!! Now I just don't know what I need to alter to make it so incredibly smaller and still be worth watching. When i get back from dinner, i will try to do the ipod size and see what happens. Thanks for the suggestion.
Any other helpful hints are very much appreciated!
Thanks,
Karen

Use Keynote for Website?

I'm brand new to Keynote. Currently upgrading from 2.0.2 to 3. Is it possible to create a whole website in Keynote and upload it as your Website?

Welcome to the discussion forums, wit.
Is it possible to create a whole website in Keynote and upload it as your Website?
Possible, but not advisable. Some web-specific tool like iWeb or RapidWeaver would be a better choice, as these kind of applications have functionality specifically for creating websites. There are a variety of common features that many website have but that Keynote can't create (such as rollover graphics, or Javascript support). The HTML conversion is OK if you want someone to see a presentation on the web, but it really isn't designed for full-scale website production.

Can you control videos in Keynote for iPad?

Just got hold of my first iPad and I'm putting together a simple Keynote presentation on it. So far really impressed with how slick the Keynote app is, apart from one thing however...
When you include a video on a slide, there seems to be absolutley no way of controlling it. Am I missing something here??
I've got a 1.5 minute long video on a slide. When I tap once, it starts playing. However that seems to be it... there is no way to pause, scrub, or even start the video again...all you can do is tap again to advance to the next slide, then swipe back to go back and start the video again.
Seems crazy?! The app has so many other advanced features I would have thought this one was quite easy...
Any help appreciated!!
Thanks!

You might have better luck getting an answer in the iWorks for iPad forum. Not all of us here have an iPad.

HT4640 How do I play a "movie" not a video on keynote for iPad.

I spent two hours googling this problem with VERY mixed results. I am trying to import a video I recorded with a camera onto my iPad so that I can embed it in a Keynote presentation. First, despite tips on how to change the format/file name, I could not get the file onto my ipad using an sd card and the camera connection kit. I put the video into itunes, tried to sync. Despite being the proper .mov format, it would not sync to the ipad as it "cannot be played on this ipad". I googled this problem, I was told to go to the advanced menu in itunes and convert it to an ipad format. There is no more advanced menu. I googled this problem, I found that the settings are now distributed throughout the other menus. I finally found the option in the File menu. I converted the file. It transfered to the iPad. Whew, finally, I'm done. No. The video is now only accessible in the Movies app. Keynote refuses to recognize this as a valid place to select videos: there is no option for this. What a gigantic waste of time. How can I put this video on my iPad in such a way as to use it with Keynote. I have to say, that I used to flaunt Mac's ease of use... I can easily say that this nightmare has reversed that opinion completely.
Btw, I am using windows xp, and an iPad 2 with 6.0.1. iTunes version 11.0.1.12
I also tried creating a playlist in itunes with the movie and syncing. This also did nothing.

In need of a flash/html5/quicktime audio/video media player for a website

Hello everybody,
I'm looking to get some kind of audio/video media player for a website. I would like it to be customizable, and also most likely read a play list from some kind of text file or xml file.
Normally, I would look for some kind of flash media player, but recently the site might be read from Apple mobile devices also, which of course not flash which might be a problem, so I'm also looking into other options such as some kind of QuickTime media player web application or even html5 player.
I do not personally know how to code in flash or HTML 5, so I would be willing to hire someone to help out.
Is HTML 5 for long enough that it would play on most current browsers? I would imagine that HTML 5 might not work on older browsers–is this correct?
I don't know of any QuickTime media players - any links to get me started?
Does anyone know some solutions to this flash / apple issue?

Looks like you are getting a very good lesson in why Flash is the best choice for a Web media player.... plentilful, easily customizable, and is a "right now" solution. Good luck on getting your viewers to download and install the codex need to play an Ogg video!
To add the extra accessabilty for the iPhone etc, use swfobject to provide an alternative video file type... the .mov
Here is an example of a Flash video that plays on the iPhone (well sort of..):
http://www.cidigitalmedia.com/tutorials/qt/play_qt.html
Using swfobject for Flash detection, if the Web browser has the Flash plugin, the Flash .flv video is displayed, if not, the QT, .mov version is displayed.
View the source code for more exact details.
If the Web browser does not have the Flash plugin, alternate content is displayed, which in this case happens to be a QT player, which displays a .mov video. In this case it's just a single video. Now maybe you have a QT player with playlist... but let me tell you.. they are a lot rarer than Flash media players with playlists, xml playlist, etc.... Strong case for Flash here..
But your alt content could just as easily hold a QT media player (with playlist) if such an animal exists.

Best setup for playback of video in Keynote?

I use keynote on a daily basis and find inserting video elements can cause sputtery playback and even flash frames?!! which can be a bit of a problem on a 14meter screen!!
What is the ideal set-up for playing back video in keynote? I see that the video plays fine in quicktime but as soon as you inbed in keynote you get splutters and the odd flash frame.
Is there a recommended codec - max size/dimensions - prefured system configuration - hardware recomendations... I see I'm not the only one to have these problems...
Keynote is a great advancement over powerpoint and should be developed further, even a “designer” edition with more complex design/motion features for us that would like to push the bound’s…. THINK AFTER EFFECTS...
Thanks,

I had this problem and it drove me batty. Went to Apple store and 'stumped the stars' with the issue. We tried changing compression to make video smaller, etc to no avail. Sometime video would even lock up.
I found the solution on this discussion board. Can't recall who to thank. I put the Keynote on an external drive to my MacBookPro. Now it worked much better. Occasionally I will get a short milli-second flash, but no sputtering or no locking up. So I just carry a 80GB external drive with me with my lecture on it an it works great. If you figure out how to get rid of the random flash let me know, on your 14 meter screen it will look like a nuclear test!
I think what happens when you drive an external projector, in addition to showing the instructors version on your MBP, it is simply too much for either RAM or hard drive to deal with fast enough. So when you put the presentation on an external drive it takes that load off your internal drive. Maybe that is not what really happens but sort of sounds logical. Let me know if it works for you, and let me know if you get (and later solve) the random flash

What's the recommended format for shooting video thats going on websites

I'm basically looking to do video for websites. Since computer screens are displaying progressively. Is shooting (Progressive Frame Rates) always the better option for shooting video. This is if your only final destination is going to be the internet ?
Also, is streaming always the better route ? If you can afford a personal server, isnt streaming the best method of posting multiple video clips ?
Thanks - Appreciate all replies

Just one more note to add to the good ones already here: Make sure your source material is as good as it can possibly be. Maybe I'm the weirdo, but in my experience scaling down and compressing video for Web delivery exaggerates rather than hiding shortcomings in the source material. Most of my content is delivered over the Web, but I shoot everything in high-definition with aggressively contrasty lighting and deeply crushed blacks. You might think it wouldn't matter, since it's all getting downscaled and compressed for distribution anyway, but at least to my eyes, material that's shot in high resolution (and yes, at 23.976) with a lot of in-camera contrast compresses better. You end up with fewer subtle areas of mostly-the-same luminance, like in the backgrounds, and that's where Internet compression really falls apart. By keeping everything in sharp contrast, and especially by underlighting your backgrounds and really crushing your blacks, I feel you give the encoder a little advantage and let it produce a better result.
But that might just be me.

website.
I am Beginner in PHP, MYSQL and FLASH.
It would be great if any one could give me answers and
solutions for below questions:
1. Any list of webhosting sites which can support video
conferencing?

video conferencing and i need to integrate with my seperate
webhosting provider where my website is getting hosted. Then how
can i do it? what would be the costs that that would i have to
invest for supoose there are 1 presenter and 100 viewers.
3. Alternatively, I would like to get help from anyone in
doing below steps.
a) Add a flash player in my webpage, so that it can record
the video,audio stream from a webcam, microphone.
b) send to webhosting or videoconferencing supporting
server.

Hi,
Here are some quick answers:
1.

2. Your website and video player can be hosted by someone
different than the FMS host. Your FMS host will give you the
information to use in the video player (the server name/application
name, etc).
3.a There are lots of articles and tutorials to help you get
started. Here's one:

Pros and cons for posing video to youtube for use in iWeb

Hello
Can someone explain the pros and cons of posting video to YouTube for use in an iWeb website instead of iDisk?
Thanks
Carl

Carl ~ Some of the following points have already been mentioned above, but anyway...
Pros for posting videos to YouTube are:
Viewers of your video wouldn't be using up your limited .Mac data transfer allowance.
Once your site is published, if subsequently you have to do a +Publish All+ from iWeb, you wouldn't be uploading your video yet again to .Mac ~ saving time and usage of your limited .Mac data transfer allowance.
YouTube videos have a wide audience and popular features such as ratings, playlists, comments, etc.
Cons for posting videos to YouTube are:
Limitations on size and quality of videos and their unappealing presentation style. For example, compare YouTube's presentation style and limited size options with that of a +.Mac Web Gallery+:
http://gallery.mac.com/emily_parker#100471
Perhaps a compromise would be to post your videos to YouTube (for the publicity) and link from your iWeb site to a +.Mac Web Gallery+ (for its elegance and avoidance of iWeb re-publishing it.)

Video capture driver for MSI GeForce 2 Pro video card

Hi,
I am in need of the nVidia WDM video capture driver for my Geforce 2 Pro video card. Model #M-8831. I was able to download it from the MSI/TW website over a year ago just fine. My computer crashed from a game bug a couple of months ago and MSI/TW does not list the capture driver I need any longer. I did email the company asking for help with no response back yet (after 2 weeks). You people may be my last hope.
I do have the cd that came with the video card, but I've never been able to install the capture driver from it. There is a button to install it, but it never gets loaded. I've tried browsing the cd and also tried installing it using the windows wizards with zero results. My only successful install was from the MSI home website.
If you need more information, please let me know.
Thank you,

I am a new mac user and I switch to mac due to the graphics that it brings. I do website in pc and I heard iweb is the best.NOW i heard that iweb will be discontinue. so what is the best application there for website using MAC OSX lion?

I am a new mac user and I switch to mac due to the graphics that it brings. I do website in pc and I heard iweb is the best.NOW i heard that iweb will be discontinue. so what is the best application there for website using MAC OSX lion?

It is now confirmed that iWeb, and iDVD, has been discontinued by Apple. This is evidenced by the fact that new Macs are shipping with iLife 11 installed but without iWeb and iDVD.
On June 30, 2012 MobileMe will be shutdown. However, iWeb will still continue to work but without the following:
Features No Longer Available Once MobileMe is Discontinued:
◼ Password protection
◼ Blog and photo comments
◼ Blog search
◼ Hit counter
◼ MobileMe Gallery
All of these features can be replaced with 3rd party options.
I found that if I published my site to a folder on my hard drive and then uploaded with a 3rd party FTP client subscriptions to slideshows and the RSS feed were broken. If I published directly from iWeb to the FPT server those two features continued to work correctly.
There's another problem and that's with iWeb's popup slideshows. Once the MMe servers are no longer online the popup slideshow buttons will not display their images.
Click to view full size
However, Roddy McKay and I have figured out a way to modify existing sites with those slideshows and iWeb itself so that those images will display as expected once MobileMe servers are gone. How to is described in this tutorial: #26 - How to Modify iWeb So Popup Slideshows Will Work After MobileMe is Discontinued.
It now appears that the iLife suite of applications offered on disc is now a discontinued product and the remaining supported iApps will only be available thru the App Store from now on. However, the iLife 11 boxed version that is still available at the online Apple Store (Store button at the top of the page) and those still on the shelves of retailers will include iWeb and iDVD. Those two apps were listed in small, gray text on the iLife 11 box that I bought.
Personally, if I didn't already have a copy I would purchase one to have it for reinstallation purposes if ever needed.
This might be of some interest to you at this time: Life After MobileMe.

How can I use a bluetooth remote to pause a video on Keynote?

I used to use a bluetooh remote to pause videos on Keynote during my presentations. However, since the Keynote update to 6.2 I am no longer able to do it and it was a very helpful tool for me. I use the Satechi bluetooth remote GBR-100 for that. I use the MacBook Air which does not have the infra red remote capability. Is there any possible set up that I can try?
Thank you!

The document states that my new iPad (iPad 3) SHOULD mirror on the VGA device... but it doesn't.
The Apple Store sold me a standard VGA adapter, not the digiital one. The back of the packages states the adaptor supports iPad and iPad 2, but no iPad 3 or "New iPad" is listed. Did they sell me the wrong adapter?
No. It was packaged before the new iPad was released so it won't list it but is is compatible.
Is it possible that my VGA projector won't accept the 1080 input?
Possibly. Either this or it is not set up corectly.

Download and import YouTube videos to iMovie for editing

Download and import YouTube videos to iMovie for editing
YouTube always provides people with raw video materials on all sorts of things happened worldwide in real time. Video lovers are fond of downloading these files as private collection, even using video editors like iMovie to do further editing of their favorite ones, so as to import them to portable devices like iPod, iPhone, PSP, Blackberry, etc. for playback, or upload to their own websites to share with others, or do something else as they like.
However, not all the people have found a proper way to download YouTube videos, not to mention how to add these files to iMovie for editing. YouTube videos are in the format of FLV, which is not a workable format in iMovie, so if you want to import YouTube videos to it without trouble, you should convert FLV files to iMovie compatible formats such as MPEG-4 and MOV in advance. With the special intention of solving these two problems, this guide will show you how to download YouTube videos and import them to iMovie for editing step by step. If you are in need, just feel free to go along with it.
Step 1: Download, install and run Pavtube YouTube Converter for Mac
This converter can process downloading and conversion simultaneously. Once you launch it, the interface below well pop up.
Step 2: Add URL, select output format and set save path
Press tag “Add URL” in the above interface, and then the following window will appear. Just copy and paste the URL of the YouTube video file which you want to download and convert to the text box after “URL”. Then select a supportable format for iMovie by clicking the drop-down list of “Convert To”. Here I choose MOV for example.
Afterwards, you can insert the storage file name in the text box of “Save As”, if not, the program will generate one automatically. Here I save my file as “mycollection”. Meanwhile, you are allowed to hit “Browse” in the opposite side of “Save To” to specify the destination folder. By the way, if you want to save the original FLV files, you are allowed to tick the checkbox “Save FLV File” to achieve this goal.
Step 3: Custom
This program enables you to adjust video and audio parameters like codec, bit rate, aspect ratio, frame rate, sample rate, and channels, so that you can change them randomly according to your own demands. Generally speaking, the options which refer to values are always in condition of the larger values, the larger file size, but better quality. Do remember click “OK” to save your custom settings.
Step 4: Download and convert
Once all the settings are done, you can click “OK” button to start. The following window will show you the progress of downloading and conversion.
Step 5: Import the output MOV files to iMovie
As soon as the YouTube video files have been downloaded and converted to MOV or other iMovie workable format, you can click “Open” at lower right corner of the above interface to find out the output files. Afterwards, launch iMovie, and click File > Import to add the output files to iMovie for editing.
Tips:
1. This program supports batch tasks so that you can download multiple YouTube video files in batches at a time.
2. Pavtube YouTube Converter for Mac adopts multi-threading technology, which makes its download speed is faster than any other similar YouTube downloader.
3. Besides YouTube.com, it can also automatically detect and download online videos in the format of .flv, and f4v from many other video-sharing websites, like Yahoo Video, Myspace, Google Video, Fox and more.
4. It also provides users with conversion function, with which you can convert any YouTube FLV/F4V files to other formats like MP4, MKA, WAV, AC3, MKV, FLV, MP3, M4A, 3GP, AVI, MOV, MPG, etc. at will.
5. If you only use it as a YouTube downloader without format conversion, you can take it as a piece of freeware.
All right, this guide is ending up now; hope it will do you a favor while downloading video files from YouTube as well as importing them to iMovie for further editing.

It's a clip from CNN (with all credits etc. added). When one refers to it as a clip posted on "YouTube", then people understand the quality will be poor.
I've watched television go from everything shot on a tripod with clean, meticulous editing rules, to almost anything goes. It has to do with cultural reference.
