Setting video position

I'm creating a CD with FLV video files. How do I set the
current playing
time of the video so I can jump to various places in the
file? I've always
assumed that streaming only dealt with network connections
and not playing
an attached FLV from a local drive. But the help only seems
to deal with
streaming.

Not a silly suggestion at all, your right about it. Unfortunately, this last job has to be complete by saturday, and I have too many holes in my knowledge of FCP at this point to get the job done in time. I have to do 40 cutaways of a slide show during a mans speech, and I am not certain how to remain in lip sync using cross disloves. It's probably very easy, but I don't know exactly how. After this project, I will be on a FCP learning schedule from here on out.
However, your 1st reply on my problem led me to find the answer I needed. iMovie requires a DV Stream output in Quicktime. DV Stream is iMovies native format. That problem solved.
Now I have another small thing happening:
iMovie keeps throwing the unedited part of the project in the iMovie trash. Everytime I open the project, iMovie says that it cant find that sequence (but it is in the trash everytime - I just take it back out). Hopefully, this won't have any effect on the project when I burn it to a DVD with menus.
I have a lynda.com tutorial on FCP, but the speed in which this guy teaches, makes you feel like a 4 or 5 year old. Way too slow for me .... I get some questions answered faster from the PDF file instruction pages.
"Did you initially learn FCP by some tutorial method? Or, are you just self taught? "
Thanks again!

Please help! Not able to set Video input Port(S-Video or Composite)on Linux

Hi
I am using JMF2.1.1e(Linux performance pack) for video capturing on Linux OS. I want to set video input port(S-Video or composite) through my application. I am using the following code:
     if ( dataSource != null )
          arrControls = dataSource.getControls ();
     if ( arrControls != null )
          nCount = arrControls.length;
     System.out.println("No. of Controls: " + nCount);
     for ( i = 0; i < nCount; i++ )
          if ( arrControls[i] == null )
               continue;
          if ( !(arrControls[i] instanceof Control) )
               continue;
          componentControl = ((Control)arrControls).getControlComponent ();
          System.out.println("ComponentControl : " + componentControl);
          if ( componentControl == null )
               continue;
But, i am getting No. of Controls: 0 (Zero). So i am not able to get any control component also. Rest of the application is working fine. Please help me solving this problem.
Thanks in advance.

To go a stage further.
Google run a Jabber server for their service.
Jabber apps (those that can) use a Protocol called Jingle to make the A/V connections.
Google's version is not even that compatible with other Jabber apps. (See Here)
The Plug-in in the Google Install (Or the Standalone Web Browser Plug-in allow Browsers to access the GoogleTalk A/V side as does the Standalone PC app called GoogleTalk as well.
iChat uses a process called SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) to connect to other iChat Users or to the AIM for PC app.
However this also works in any iChat to iChat Connection no matter if the Buddy List is an AIM Login based one, Jabber (including GoogleTalk) or A LAN based Bonjour Chat.
In you care this is not going to work.
Getting the Standalone (Intel only) Browser Plug-in and using the Chat option in the Google Mail Web page is probably the easiest option.

I need to set the position of components on a page that contains a MenuBar,

I need to set the position of components on a page that contains a MenuBar, but MenuBar does not provide a getPreferred size method.
How can I get the MenuBar's size in AWT?
Thanks.

A menubar is not a general component that is added to a frame like any another. It is the specific responsibility of the setMenuBar/setJMenuBar methods to deal with this.

Set file position within a for loop, error 1

Hi, I'm reading from a .sxm file consisting of a large chunk of text followed by binary data for 512x512 images with 4 bytes per pixel
I’ve managed to successfully identify the start of the binary and read the first image from the file and view it using "flatten pixmap.vi", so I’m doing something right, however when i try to read the next chunk of image data in the .sxm file using a for loop, set file position keeps churning out ERR (1).
im at a loss as to whats causing this
Solved!

}I've got an app that uses JMF to play MP3's, but using JMF just to play MP3's is overkill, but I've found a SPI from javaZoom now, so that's okay.
Anyway, I want to set the position of the line in microseconds now, as well as get the duration.
Can anyone help with this?
By the way, if anyone can open .rar files (lots of complainants about that) then the, in much need of an update, app is here: http://acquiesce.awardspace.co.uk/Projects/Download/Music_Exploder.rar
I you do want to try it, you do need the JMF.
Why not pop into the forum as well:
http://acquiesce.informe.com/mucic-exploder-dc4.html
You know I need the comments.
Luke :D

okay, so u can do this in the Clip interface, but the Clip takes ages to open, at lest for mp3's.
I need it to open it right away
I understand a bit more now, the SourceDataLine plays each byte as it is writen which is why it plays it straight away, but the Clip loads it into memory, so therefore it knows how long, how many frames etc about the audio, but it means that it's not as fast as streaming.
I need the best of both worlds really, I've tried opening a Clip on another Thread as well as playing from a SourceDataLine, the idea was to have the Clip take over the playing once it has loaded, but the line doesn't play or read/write.
Is there someway to take advantage of both streaming an non-streaming in this way?
Or simply make the Clip.open_AudioImputStream) faster?
Thanks
Luke

Set file position error

Hi,
I am using LabVIEW 2009 SP1 on Win XP OS system. I am reading and writing data to a text file whose size does not exceed 50 MB. whenever i try to set file position to a value of say 128 bytes from the start of file, the function does not show an error. But when i try to read back the file position using get file position function, the value shows a very high number. I am not able to do a random access read of the file data. Please help.

How do you set video to CBR in compressor 4?

Hello All,
I'm delivering a short video to a client. They require video to be and mov file in H.264, and the video and audio to be at a Contant Bit Rate (CBR). I've figured out how to set audeio to CBR but not Video.
There's plenty of info on the web that I can find about how to set video to CBR in older versions of Compressor but I haven't been able to find any tutorials on how to do this in Compressor 4.
Any advice would be much appreciated. Many thanks!

Check with your client and see if they can use .mp4 from your old Compressor. Compressor 4 generates a .mp4 with an h.264, Compressor 3 doesn't.

It sounds like you want to use a default or derived attribute value.
You set these in rules, which are applied via profiles.

Do i have to add something like import java.???
No, nothing starting with "java.*" will help you. There is no way you can do that using only what Java provides itself, you will need to use external libraries.
Chances are, you don't want to do this right now and forget about it, just write one line after another.
If it s not too long could you write me the code for <*set cursor position*>(x,y);Find, download, learn to use JCurses or a similar library and write it. If that sounds like a lot of work for such a "simple" functionality then yes: that is a lot of work for such a little thing.
It's generally not worth doing.

Problem in setting desired position for JPanel in JScrollPane!!!

Dear Friends,
I am having problem to set desired Scrollable(JScrollPane) JPanel position. I have a JPanel in a JFrame which is scrolable with lot of objects. It automatically displays on the top position inside JScrollPane, I want to set scroll position on the middle for the panel.
I went through the search for the same in this forum, i found some posts related to this but they are linked with JTextArea(setCaretPosition). With JPanel i can't set caret position.
Could anyone guide me how to set the scroll position on middle.
Regards..
