Subtitle buttons - fast-forward and rewinding issue

I am new to DVD Studio Pro 4 and I have project that uses a subtitle button over a video track to provide users with the ability to go "back" to the previous menu - the menu in which they selected the track.
There is a problem using this method however, when fast-forward or rewind is pressed, then the track starts to play again, the back button is now hosed. My thought is that this is because of the chapter markers not being refreshed in the middle of a subtitle, only at the begining and end like bookends.
Is there a way around this? If not, are there any buggy issues with locking down the user controls for fast-forward and rewind? Any help would be much appreciated...

You can lock out the User Ops for Fast Forward Rewind or whatever you want. Probably a good idea if you are using the track as a menu effectively.
If however the track is amovie and you want them to go back to the menu where they selected it you can target the menu for any track to go back to a specific menu. Click on the track and check out the Inspector near the bottom where it syas Remote Control. Target the menu you want people to go to back to when they press Menu on their Remote

Fast Forward and Rewind keyboard shortcuts in Log and Capture

In FCP, I want to assign the Fast Forward and Rewind buttons (in the Log and Capture mode) to buttons on the keyboard. I've assigned the functions using the Keyboard Layout in the Tools menu but it doesn't seem to be working like it should. In Log and Capture when I use the mouse to press the Fast Forward button, FCP stops the miniDV deck and fast forwards the tape as fast as possible without showing any picture. However, when I invoke the keyboard shortcut I created all I get is the picture moving a few fames per second instead of the tape stopping and fast forwarding as fast as possible. The same happens with the Rewind keyboard shortcut as well. Any ideas as to why, and how I might be able to fix this?
The computer I'm currently working on is a Dual 2 GHz PowerMac G5, 2.5 GB RAM, Final Cut Studio (Final Cut Pro 5.0.4).

When I press the fast forward or rewind button while logging a miniDV tape the video stops and then the tape fast forwards or rewinds at a MUCH faster rate than L or J ever give me. That is the behavior I am trying to get from a keyboard shortcut.
Not possible via keyboard shortcuts, unfortunately.
Even if you map the Rewind and Fast Forward functions to keys in a Custom Keyboard Layout - for those who didn't know, yes, there are specific commands for those functions even though they are not mapped by default - those shortcuts will not within the L&C window. We're stuck pressing the buttons.
Forgot to mention: the only time you're able to invoke the true fast forward or rewind function is using Shift-I/O (that is, Go to In Point or Out Point). Of course that only works if you have the necessary In/Out point set...

How do i get my mouse wheel to stop making the song Fast forward and rewind?

the song plays, I start surfing the web and if i use the scroll wheel on my mouse (up or down) it moves the play possition of the song foreward or backward.

hey Lodinick,
I'm actually trying to get my mouse to do what you're complaining about. My search led me to your post, LOL.
I have a programmable logitech and I can't seem to find an option to assign the scroll functionality. I can change what happens when I click the scroll wheel, but not what happens when I scroll it up or down.
To help you:
1. If you have a programmable mouse, try digging in the software for that mouse.
2. If not try looking in Windows mouse settings.
If I find how to make it work on my mouse I'll try to remember and come tell you how to undo it.

Viewing video files in a finder window used to have f.forward and rewind arrows

In Leopard, when i would highlight one of my video files, i would get the "play >" and "Fast Forward >>" and "rewind <<" arrows, along with a timeline "thermometer" indicator
now with Lion, all i get is a countdown clock in the middle of the video in the finder window.
is there a way to get the "play" "FF" "RW" and "timeline thermometer" indicator back?
thanks for your help

Ipod 123 update no fast forward or rewind

Since I updated my ipod firmware to v. 1.2.3 I can no longer fast forward or rewind music or audio podcasts with the fwd / back buttons or using the scrolling timeline. What's happening?

I am having this issue as well. I just upgraded to version 1.2.3 on my 30GB iPod video two days ago. I found while listening to my podcasts on the way to work today that I could no longer fast-forward or reverse. When I tried to do so, it started the audio over from the beginning and from there became completely unresponsive as far as advancing or reversing was concerned.

What is the speed of fast forward or rewind an mp3?

What is the speed of fast forward or rewind an mp3?
I often lisen 3 hour MP3 and with my old mp3 player I takes a lot of time forward or rewing 1 hour.
Does anybody know how takes around forward or rewing 1 hour?
Thnaks very muchs.

Well, I have bought one today.
As if someone else interested in:
1) Nano 6th use a slide bar, so you can move instantly to anywhere. The accuracy in a 2 hour 30 minutes is aprox. one minute by one minute (minimun)
2) If you use the forward button, you can lisen while you move forward. The speed is aprox:
     10 sg = 5 min.
     20 sg = 11 min
     30 sg = 17 min
Thanks :-(

As js, forwarding and rewinding

hi, i have made an animation about 18 minutes and now my boss wants it to be like the flash videos- with the ability to foeward and rewind. The only thing i managed to do is to put a sidebar from the begining of the animation until the end which moves across the whole video and when you click on it the animation stops and when you click again it plays again, but i didnt find how it can be rewinded and forworded. Can you help me please??????????
And one more thing is there a video/pdf or something else readable in which there is a comparison or ath least explained the differencies between the actionscripts (or flash in general) and the files that are produced fron edge animate? he wants me to make a documentation about that and i haven't find something so far.
thank you.

Hi, kompoti-
I don't know of any AS > JS documentation, but they're both based on ECMA-script, so it should look fairly familiar. I actually came from an AS background into JavaScript and managed to pick up a fair bit in a very short amount of time.
Regarding your first question, you can use a combination of getPosition(), play(), and stop() to fake a rewind/fast forward.
Here's some sample code that might help point you in the right direction.
// in the click event of a fast forward button
var currentPos = sym.getPosition();
currentPos += 1000; // fast forward 1 second
if (sym.isPlaying()) {
     sym.play(currentPos);
else {
     // this means we're not currently playing, so we should just fast-forward and stop
     sym.stop(currentPos);
Hope that helps!

Why can I no longer use my headphones remote to fast forward or rewind music videos on iPhone since upgrading to ios7?

Why can I no longer use my headphones remote to fast forward or rewind music videos on iPhone since upgrading to ios7?

The YouTube app is not included in iOS 6 (I think because the licensing agreement with google ended). You will either need to try one of the YouTube apps from the store (there is an iPhone optimised app from google, and other people have said that they are working on an iPad version), or (if this isn't the version that you have tried) try accessing the mobile version via Safari : http://m.youtube.com (you can create a home screen shortcut for the site)

Crash when fast-forward or rewinding in videos

My 5G 80GB crashes when fast-forward or rewinding while playing a video. I can fast-forward about 5 times, then it crashes and I can't fast-rewind, it crashes the first time I try it. My videos are 5 minutes or 30 minutes in length and it doesn't matter which I play :/
I also noticed that when I play a video without fast-forwarding or anything, the iPod crashes at the end of the video...
Any suggestions? I'd really like to use that feature on my iPod, with the click wheel it is so comfortable to do that.

Thanks for your fast reply!
And sorry for my late response...
I've tried the Five Rs multiple times, they didn't help. I also tried those sample videos, although only 3 of them can be played on the ipod: sample_iPod, sample_iTunes and sample_mpeg4... my iPod doesn't crash in these videos... I used this program to convert my videos for my iPod: http://www.ipod-video-converter.org/
I used mpeg4 compression.

In latest version of MF there`s missing button, which was in previous version: between buttons back/forward and the typing bar there used to be little flash, which showed few last pages I have just browsed. How can I restore it?

If you mean the drop marker then you can still get the History of the Back and Forward buttons if any by either Left-Click and hold for a second or by Right-Clicking them.
If you still want the drop mark there also then there is this Extension at https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/backforward-dropmarker/
Also the abbreviation for Firefox is '''Fx'''

Found this solution in another thread, what you want to do is go into the Nike Fitness thing, go to run, go to Spoken Feedback and set it to off. This should fix your problems.

Quicktime Player fast-forward and reverse buttons not working for audio

I have Quicktime Player 7.7.3 for Windows and the fast forward/reverse buttons will not work while playing audio files. I've tried it with mp3 and m4a, neither will work.
The go to end/go to begining buttons are working fine.
The ff/reverse button don't work very well for video files, they only will move a few frames at a time, but they will not work at all on strictly audio files.
I've looked at the preferences, and the software is up to date.
the only way to ff/reverse is to go to Window > Show A/V Controls and use the Jog Shuttle, but that is a clumsy workaround. I'd rather have the playback buttons work properly in the first place.
Is there something else I should be doing (aside from purchasing QT Pro, that is)?

...stupid decision to replace the iTunes feedback...
Not replaced, just moved. Now grouped with all other Mac OS X feedback:
http://www.apple.com/macosx/feedback/
It's not a bug. If it was we would all have this problem. My Macs don't.
Shut iTunes down.
Go to ~/your user name/Library/Preferences and place the file "com.apple.iTunes.plist" in the trash.
Try iTunes again. If your problem is solved, empty the trash.

Music fast forwards and Siri/Voice control randomly pops up

While music is playing on my iPhone 4S, a number of problems occur. Siri will randomly come on as if I have hit the home button twice, pausing the music (once I hit the home button to turn Siri off the music plays again). The music will also randomly pause and fast forward itself. All of these things occur whether the phone in locked or unlocked. Sometimes, it starts to do these above things without me being in range with it. I have a feeling it is something to do with my Apple earpods. when I walk or move the earpods around a lot, these things are likelier to occur.
I have tried turning off shake to shuffle, raise to speak (for Siri) and I've even tried turning Siri off all together (which simply resulted in Voice Command coming on instead). I went to the Apple store for help and was told to do a backup and then restore the phone to factory settings. After I did that the issue persisted but with less frequency at first, but now it happens pretty constantly again. It seems like a software issue but the restore did not work so I'm not sure. Should I go to an Apple Store and get it checked out?

N91 new firmware, unable to fast forward or rewind

I just upgraded my Nokia N91 to the new 2.00.052 firmware and run into a problem. After the upgrade, I can no longer fast forward, rewind or pause tracks encoded in eAAC+ format. If I do attempt to do any of the above actions, the song pauses and just won't unpause. However, the problem doesn't occur with songs encoded in mp3 format.
I have tried formatting the hard drive and erasing the phone memory and updating the firmware again, but to no avail. I have been using the latest versions of PC Suite and Nokia Software updater.
This is pretty annoying, as these are fundemental operations that one might want to do when playing a song. And I love the eAAC+ format, don't want to go back to mp3.
Does anyone have any suggestions at all?
Cheers

Well, I don't use eAAC+ songs that much, but I can confirm that I have the same problem
It only plays the song from the begining.
640K Should be enough for everybody

Can't Fast-Forward or Rewind when iTunes is minimized

When iTunes is minimized and I hold down the right arrow to fast forward, the track only advances like 6 sec and continues to play. BUT when it's expanded it continues to fast-forward until I let go.
This never happend before I upgraded to iTunes6.
Is anyone else having this problem?

Really? Sorry to hear that. It fixed it just fine for me. (I say that now, but watch it not work for me soon. heh) I didn't have to re-start for it to work, so.
I wonder what it is that is making it work or not work for different users.
