Stopping and starting a movie

I have a Flash movie which is going to have several hotspots
where when a user moves their mouse over a photo will be displayed
(a different photo for each hotspot).
http://www.get2thepoint.org/g2p/about_usx.php
- at present there are just 2 hotspots (the orange and one other
dot). I want the photo to stay till the user moves their mouse out.
I tried putting a stop() on the last frame and a on (rollOut) {
play(); } action on the button to get the movie back to frame 1. It
worked unless the user moved their mouse out of the hotspot before
the movie had finished playing in which case it all went pear
shaped.
Any suggestions please? The fla file is at
http://www.get2thepoint.org/g2p/resources/aboutus3.fla
Thanks
G :)

thanks kglad. I've tried but I can't get the script to work
for a simple "stop" using the onMouseMove. I got it to work for a
"gotoandStop" but It isn't really what I wanted.
here is what I used
onMouseMove = function () {
gotoandstop ("stop here");
what would the correct script be for it to just stop?
It seems like it should be the easiest thing in the world to
solve but apparently I am a numb skull.

Firefox4 on ubuntu, after awhile when I click on bookmarks and then move the cursor down to a bookmark, the list of bookmarks disappears. A stop and start of firefox4 fixes the problem but what is the long term fix?

I upgraded to 4 and I noticed that after 4 has been up for an hour or so I click on the bookmarks. I see my list of bookmarks below but when I move the cursor down to select one, the list disappears.
The only way I have found to fix this is to stop and start 4. I can then move the cursor down to select a bookmark. This problem has not occurred in previous versions.
ps.. no '''''delicious''''' installed

No, I see the three areas at the bottom of the Bookmark area that you refer to, but that also highlights an issue. When I want to save a story to my Reading List and click on Share then "Add to Reading List" then go back to look at what is stored in the Reading List, my recently-saved item is not there.
I looked thru the History tab and the Reading List tab and have been in the Bookmark tab. But even when I Save a Bookmark, that newly-saved Bookmark does not show up in the Bookmark area.
But then again, the next day (and actually just in the last half-hour) all of the functionality came back. When I look at the Bookmarks, suddenly, again, all of the Bookmarks that are on my Safari browser on my iMac are now there, and I can now Save a Bookmark.
It keeps coming in and out and that is what is driving me a little nuts.
Thanks.

I have a Macbook pro mid 2011 and just bought the Apple TV. While watching program or movie from any of the apps such as Watch ABC, the program keeps stopping and starting constantly.

That would indicate a network issue.
Reboot ATV and router
Make sure DNS is set to auto
Ensure router is up to date, if on wifi try ethernet
Go to istumbler.net to get a report of the network, look for signal strength and noise

Apple TV problem- Netflix message not availabale at present etc. On Itunes playing a movie the sound stops and starts how can the downloading hurry up. On the computer all OK.

Netflix keeps posting not available- have restarted it as directed but still a problem. Itunes movies dont download fast enough and stop and start. On the Imac computer no problem with sound or viewing.

What is your current connection using speedtest.net
I would check for interference using istumbler
Make sure DNS is set correctly on ATV (settings - general - network - configure DNS - automatic)

How to stop and start MDBs to listen for JMS messages

Hello! This might be more of an architecture question rather than a technical questing, but I post it here, in the lack of a better place...
For several years I have been using Webster and Webster MQ to send messages back and forth to clients. The architecture for the middleware platform has been designed around the functionality of ListenerPorts. Listenerports is a Webster functionality that let you "stop" and start to listen to JMS messages for a given MDB either by admin console, or by JMX.
The arhitecture we used was something like this :
1.Client sends a persistent message to a queue. (order)
2. An MDB pics up the order message, calls a SessionBean that "fronts" the IIOP back end system.
This is quite "out of the box" architecture, but we used the Listenerports to solve a stability problem for our back end system.
The backEnd system was quite unstable, so the EJB threw an exception (typically because of timeout or connection refused) back to the MDB.
The Listenerport was "defined" to handle 3 errors before stopping, so the MDB resent the message twice before the listenerport automatically stopped. The nice thing about this feature was that the client could continue to send orders, and was not bothered when the back end system was down.
When the backEnd system was up and running, we could start the listenerport and it was all back to normal state. We even had a start script that checked the state of the listenerport every 30 minute, and started it automatically if it was stopped, making the admin task of starting the MDB unnecessary..
Now.. Why am I telling this story..
I would like to know how this could be done using "clean" J2EE technologies..That is..Not using any technology that is not portable..
I`m playing with glassfish at home, and it struck me that there is nothing in the J2EE spec that defines the functionality described above ? Am i missing something ?
I Do not want to stop My application because the back end system is down? That is the only way (i know of) that i can "stop" to listen for messages..
I can put all the messages on an error queue when the backbend system is down, but that would lead to more code just to handle the error messages. Maybe the easiest way to solve this is to "move" (programmatically) all messages from the error queue over to the "standard" queue every XX minute, but somehow that sounds "wrong"
Can anyone give me some advice to how this problem situation should be solved ? I`m interested in the solution both from an architectural perspective and from a more technical perspective..
Best regards

Breakpoints, whether normal or conditional, are just meant for debugging of your code. I had the sense from your question that the pausing you want to do is a part of normal operation of your code. I would NOT recommend using a breakpoint for that situation. It would bring up the block diagram showing the breakpoint when it occurs. A user besides the programmer would not know what to do in that case.
Yes, both the inner and outer loops would have shift registers.
Putting a case structure with a small while loop inside the "Pausing Case" is doable. It just depends on what you are doing or waiting for while the program operation is "paused".

Videos stop and start

I've got a fast computer w/plenty of ram. I can watch videos from all other sources perfectly smooth, including Quicktime HD movie trailers.
When I try to watch a video in iTunes it slows my computer down so much that besides the videos stopping and starting, my mouse won't even move smoothly.
It worked fine until a couple of weeks ago.

Phyllis-
One reason is that your internet connection is not fast enough to keep up with the video. You may find that when it gets to the end of the video and has fully downloaded, it will replay without stopping.

Stop and Start play from iPod - fine from HD library

I use an iMac G5/2ghz/1.5G at my office. I installed upgrades this morning for both iTunes and Tiger, and now, when I connect my iPod to play through iTunes, I get the stop and start stutter play.
I ripped files off the iPod and put them into the hard drive library, and those play fine, but anything that's playing through the iPod is stuttered.
FYI - it's a third gen 20G iPod, connected via Firewire, with v2.3 software.
This Mac is authorized to play everything on my iPod, and it was all working fine before the upgrade - so, any ideas?
(Please help - I can't stand listening to local radio with commercials, and the bandwidth police will close in on my for listening to streaming...)
Thanks.

The first thing to check would be your internet download speed, you can do this atwww.speedtest.net.
HD movies require a recommended speed of 6 Mbps, while SD movies require a recommended speed of 2.5 Mbps.

Might be corrupted preferences (.plist)
Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following:
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.image_Capture.plist
Click Go then move the com.apple.image_Capture.plist file to the Trash.
Restart your Mac and your scanner and try scanning an image.

Why does iMovie project jerk and stop and start in preview?

I have been making iMovies with iMovieHD for years using photos with the Ken Burns effect.
Recently after a movie project gets more than a few minutes long with typical audio and transitions, I no longer can preview it without it jerking and stopping and starting.
Obviously this does not allow me to see what I am doing, how the music matches or doesn't match my photos.
I have tried emptying the iMovie trash and emptying my finder trash, no change.
I have made sure there is plenty of hard disk space on my internal drive, where iMovie and the movie file is located.
Any ideas?

Hi
a. Emptying the trash - something I alway avoid - no matter why.
b. Plenty of free space on internal (start-up) hard disk ? > 25Gb after
project is captured and edited ?
c. Deleted iMovie pref file ?
d. Known trouble maker: Lot's of audio clips. eg > 50 gives a stuttering result
Mix down audio to one audio clip.
e. What kind of original material. 12-bit audio or recording in LP-mode (90min
on a 60min tape) GIVES problems + audio sync troubles.
f. .mpg4, .avi, .wmv and other ailient file formats also is problematic.
g. movie stored on an external USB/USB2 hard disk - often troublemaker.
I use FireWire AND ONLY: Mac OS Extended formatted -
UNIX/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchande DOESN'T WORK

Videos stopping and starting every three to five seconds

I am having problems downloading videos from U Tube and msn. I can't even download videos from the Apple Site. The videos from U Tube stop and start every 3 to 5 seconds. They resume after 3 to 5 seconds. I have downloaded the latest version of QuickTime. I have gone into preferences-advanced and changed the transport setup to custom; set transport protocol to http and post to 80. I have also clicked on the streaming tab; set the speed to one lower than the ISP connection and move th enable instant on slider 2-3 bars from the left. What else can I try?

There is currently no official version of MSN Messenger for Mac that supports video, unfortunately-- you might try aMSN instead, but I haven't used it myself so can't comment on the video support:
http://www.amsn-project.net/
However, the built-in camera works fine for me on Skype (and Yahoo last time I tried, which was a while ago), which suggests something else might be wrong somewhere...

Music skips and stops and starts

Hello, we have just got a nano to replace a 3rd gen iPod.
I have around 50 gigs of music on a lacie USB drive, and the music plays flawlessly from here in iTunes.
However once imported into the nano, there is distortion, jumps and clicks in the music and sometimes the song will just stop and start from the beginning.
Any ideas?

How may I automatically stop and start Mail services at a set time please

Hi folks. I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to automatically stop and start Mail services (or any other services) at a set time please in Leopard Server? Is there a script someone has created which might help?
Cheers, David ( a realy newbie when it comes to administering OS X server)

launchd works through a series of XML documents that define tasks to run, either at launch, on a time schedule, in response to network events, etc.
So you'll need to create two .plists - one to start the mail server and one to stop it. They should be saved in /Library/LaunchDaemons. I'd suggest something like:
/Library/LaunchDaemons/local.postfix.stop.plist:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple
.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
  <key>Label</key>
  <string>local.postfix.stop</string>
  <key>ProgramArguments</key>
  <array>
    <string>/usr/sbin/serveradmin</string>
    <string>stop</string>
    <string>mail</string>
  </array>
  <key>StartCalendarInterval</key>
  <dict>
    <key>Hour</key>
    <integer>1</integer>
    <key>Minute</key>
    <integer>00</integer>
  </dict>
</dict>
</plist>
and /Library/LaunchDaemons/local.postfix.start.plist:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple
.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
  <key>Label</key>
  <string>local.postfix.start</string>
  <key>ProgramArguments</key>
  <array>
    <string>/usr/sbin/serveradmin</string>
    <string>start</string>
    <string>mail</string>
  </array>
  <key>StartCalendarInterval</key>
  <dict>
    <key>Hour</key>
    <integer>4</integer>
    <key>Minute</key>
    <integer>00</integer>
  </dict>
</dict>
</plist>
You'll need to either use launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons/local.postfix.stop (or start) to load the tasks, or reboot your server.
I'm curious, though, as to why you want to do this. Mail is typically one of the services that people want to run 24/7 so they don't miss out on any emails (even though SMTP can tolerate this). Why do you want to shut yours down?

MacBook Pro hard disk stops and starts

Why does the hard disk on MacBook Pro stop and start every 15 minutes or so? All operations suddenly stop for five to ten seconds during the spin down. I don't recall this happening in OS 10.5. The preference "Put the hard disk to sleep when possible" is NOT ticked, therefore the drive should never spin down.
Any ideas?

APEX 4.2 aligning issue of Stop and Start Grid Layout item

My APEX application application is in the process of moving from 4.0 to 4.2. I am experiencing an issue with aligning (left margin justified) of Stop and Start Grid Layout items that have a border around them. Earlier I had an issue with the border itself not showing up in the 4.2 application. I was able to resolve that with a workaround by adding inline code in the CSS section of the page: #P23_OFFICE_START_TBL {width:682; border:1px solid #369; margin:5px;}. This created the border which I needed, but there are 2 Stop and Start Grid Layout items that are indented and not aligning with the border of the previous line. I have tried a number of different things but none of them have worked. This seems like a very simple issue to fix but I am having a tough time resolving it.
I tried to put the item in question in a different grid, which corrected the indention but then I lost the border around the item. It seems that the above CSS code does not work on the new grid. I also tried to put attributes such as margin-left:5px; float: left; clear: left; float: left, in the CSS code but that did not work, too.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Ajay K

I deleted and added back the Stop and Start Grid Layout items not aligning properly. This worked. Apparently, the 4.0 to 4.2 upgrade did not handle/convert these items properly. Deleting and adding them back resolved the issue.
