Using a Video Button. Do I have to make a timeline for video clip?

I am just learning how to use Encore CS6 and I have a question.
When I add a Video Button to my menu and want add a video clip inside that button do I have to make that clip its own Timeline or can I keep the clip in my Project Panel and just Drag and Drop  it into the Video Button itself?
Thanks in advance
Encore CS 6
Power Mac Intel Xeon
10GB RAM

Thanks, but I have another question:
Let's say I have made made 20 new individual 30 Second QT Movies (or QT Reference Movies to save Hard Drive Space), and I want to use them on a Menu that I will constuct using a Template Menu and Submenus found in Encore CS 6.
I make my Menu ans Submenus and put 20 Video Buttons on 4 Submenus (5 on each Submenu). I import all 20 of my Newly Made QT Movies that I am going to use for the Video Buttons.
In order to place them in each Video Button, I would have to make 20 Different Timelines each consisting on an Individual 30 second QT movie and linking each timelone to a different button?
Is that how it works?
Do I have to have these timelines open, or can I just link to them inside the Project Pane in Encore?
Can I put all 20 QT movies on one Timeline, add markers to the beginning of each one and link the Video Buttons to each indivifual QT movie?
Thanks in advamce

  • I bought a new Panasonic camcorder to edit in iMovie 10.0.3. I need to choose between the AVCHD choices and the ALL MP4/iframe choices. I don't have a clue as to which to use. I just want to burn video to DVD to have and share.  Thanks for any help.

    It sounds like you have assigned the primary click on the trackpad to something else, perhaps a gesture.
    Use your mouse, login and then open the Trackpad preference pane and see how you have the interface configured.
    Oh and you can have both the Magic Mouse and Magic Trackpad powered up and working at the same time. No need to keep moving batteries around.

  • Does iTunes have any hidden picture controls for video playback (e.g. contrast, brightness) ?

    Does iTunes have any hidden picture controls for video playback (e.g. contrast, brightness) ?
    I haven’t been able to find any.
    Since the .m4v file type appears to prevent any video bought or rented from the iTunes Store from being played using any other program the lack of these picture controls - if indeed they are lacking - make it seriously deficient as a video player.

    Thanks for the rapid response to my enquiry.
    I know that it’s possible to adjust the monitor’s performance via System Preferences but it is rather long-winded and I’d rather not alter the settings for the entire screen (and then have to change them all back once finished) when it’s only the video playback window that needs adjustment.
    Since iTunes provides various options using the Equalizer for adjusting sound playback it seems rather odd that they don’t have a similar panel for video.
    Regarding QuickTime.
    Apparently earlier versions (such as 7) had picture controls but the current version (10.4) does not.
    I assume Apple are phasing out QT whose development seems to have stopped - or rather gone backwards since it now lacks capabilities it once had - and intend in future to treat iTunes as their universal media player which no doubt makes sense from their point of view.
    I wasn’t aware of the .m4v file type when I made my first and probably last video purchase via iTunes yesterday and didn’t realise that it would restrict my options for playback so completely.
    The experience has really put me off buying any additional video from the iTunes Store.
    Back to DVDs.

  • HT1535 The reference article in question says "Manually manage music and videos" but I only have the option to "Manually manage videos" via the iPad on iTunes.  How do I actually manage music?

    Edit: classic Apple.

    If you post from a a question from the bottom of an article's page then you should get its reference, e.g. HT1535 in your case, on the post's title. The ability to edit you post only lasts for 15 minutes and allows you to correct/add extra info.
    I get the 'manually manage music and videos' tockbox as described on that article. If you only 'videos' then are you using iTunes Match on your iPad ? I don't use it but I've seen posts that say having it enabled on a device can affect the syncing of music.

    Depending on what your needs are, you may use Pages included in iWork or purchase it separately (usually there is an evaluation copy with any new mac, I guess) or try other publishing apps. I once used MS Publisher, I remember it was something like a more sophisticated word processor, right?
    You may try the cheaper DTP iCalamus or Word for mac.

    Moved to DPS forum.
    You need to set up the pages appropriately for the target device. For iPad that's 1024x768.

  • 2 questions : How do I know if a video in Flash is streaming? 2nd - how can I make an overlay for video?

    Two questions :
    1) I have created a QT.mov, imported it into Flash, but after
    thinking about it, I want to be sure it is streaming for the web.
    How can I be sure of that? If it is not, what code can I put to
    make sure it is loading?
    2) How can I make an overlay for the video that disappears as
    soon as the user clicks on the play button?

    1. Without a flash ciommunication server for TRUE streaming
    of the file, what you get is called Progressive streaming. This
    means once the video begins to download it can start playing before
    the file has completely downloaded to the user. There are good
    descriptions (including pros and cons) of this here:
    http://www.mediacollege.com/video/streaming/overview.html
    2. If you have the file set to start automatically there will
    be no need for the user to push the play button. You could just put
    a graphic on top of the video component, and use actionscript to
    make the graphic invisible when the play button is pushed.

  • Make small icons for video's

    I'm trying to fit alot of video clips on one page.
    How can I make a small picture or button and title, so I can post alot of videos on one page?

    You may want to consider a different editing and creation app for this page instead of using iWeb.
    iWeb has an annoying habit of not setting the autoplay (html tag) to "true" so your visitors will have to "click" the QuickTime controller to begin playback.
    And multiple movies in a single page would continue to download even if the viewer doesn't click the "play" button. Waste of bandwidth and a very slow loading page.
    What you probably want is to use simple javascript to open new windows as viewers decide what they want to watch from your listings. This would require a new html file for each QuickTime file.
    Or, another method, use a QuickTime "poster movie". It acts as either a placeholder (movie plays back inside the dimensions you set) inside the current page or (best) "targets" the QuickTime Player app.
    This second method saves you the bandwidth (viewers are only downloading the file they want) and would also allow the same graphic (click to play) file on the page.
    An example of the javascript method to link to a new page holding QT content:
    http://homepage.mac.com/kkirkster/bushbashquiz/
    Each click opens a new html page that holds the page code for the QuickTime file as well as allowing you to set its dimensions.
    An example of a poster movie that targets the QuickTime Player:
    http://homepage.mac.com/kkirkster/B/index.html
    These allow you to set other movie properties (mine uses full screen) in the "linked" file. My example also "closes" the movie after playback which would return your page visitors to their browser to click another example.
    A "custom built" html file is best for this work and iWeb was not used in my examples.

  • I'm using ADE with a Mac and have successfully downloaded library books for a few years; suddenly today the books are downloading to the Finder but do not show up in ADE so that they can be put on my Nook.

    Is anyone suddenly having trouble using Adobe Digital Editions on a Mac to download library books?  I have been using this to load books on to my Nook and suddenly, out of nowhere, everything is downloading to the Finder app.  ADE pops up like it always has when I download from the library website, but the book does not show up there.
    Has something changed?

    1. iTunes won't offer cloud downloads for songs that it "thinks" are in your library, even if it "knows" the files are missing. If you've exhaustively searched for the missing files and there is no prospect of repair by restoring to them to their original locations, or connecting to new ones, then delete that tracks that display both the missing exclamation mark and are of media kind Purchased/Protected AAC audio file. Don't hide from iTunes in the cloud when asked, close iTunes, then reopen. You can download from the cloud links or iTunes Store > Quicklinks > Purchased > Music > Not on this computer > All songs > Download all.
    2. Why? Not sure, perhaps 3rd party tools or accidental key presses combined with previously hidden warning messages when trying to organize the library. There is a hint that using the feature to downsample media as it is synced to a device may also be involved, though I've not replicated it. Whatever the reason a backup would protect your media.

  • Anyone have a DVD player script for playing clips?

    I'm new to Applescript and I'm trying to find or write a simple script for playing video clips in DVD Player in a row, so that I don't have to watch a clip, then minimize the play window, then select the next clip from the Go menu. I have four clips that I would like to play back to back. This doesn't seem like it would be too hard to do, but for the life of me, I can't figure it out.
    Anyone have some advice (or a pre-written script) for a pathetic newbie?
    PowerBook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    I think maybe I wasn't clear enough in my original question. These aren't clips that I have saved on my computer or clips that are on the DVD itself, they are just clips I set using DVD Player (using the New Video Clip command in the Control menu).
    The problem is that the DVD has no chapter markings. The entire 82 minute film is one chapter. We have permission from the producer to show only segments of the film, so I created clips in DVD player of the parts I want to show. However, right now, I can only play them one at a time and then have to minimize the display area and go to the Go menu and select the next video clip. I have four named video clips set for the DVD. I would like to write a script that I could run that would play them all in a row.
    I feel like I must just be missing something obvious.
    It seems to be that the script should just be
    tell application "DVD player"
    activate
    play named video clip "background"
    play named video clip "Cizik"
    play named video clip "Durley"
    play named video clip "end"
    end tell
    but that's not working. The clips show in the Video Clips window (if I go to the Go menu), so evidently the computer knows they're there, but basically nothing happens if I try to run that script except 1.852402768E+9 showing up in the Result window (I feel like I should know what that means, but of course I don't).
    Is there some trick for directing it to the clips that I'm missing? Or some other command I need to put in first?

  • My daughters have Iphones and both are registered to my email. The problem with that is that one get the others messages. I have to make one account for each their phones. How do I do that?

    My daughters got Iphones a couple of years. I do not have an Apple-phone. I registered both phones on my email. The problem is that one of them get the others messages. I therefore need to make two different accounts for their apple-products. How do I do that?

    On each of the phones you're gonna use a new Apple ID for iCloud: turn off Contacts, Calendars, etc. for iCloud. You'll be prompted to keep the data or delete it from the phone, then turn off iMessage, FaceTime & delete the iCloud account...Settings>iCloud...scroll down...delete account. Then, setup iCloud using the new Apple ID, turn on iMessage & Facetime.
    This will have no affect on the ID you share for iTunes content, & you can continue to do so.

  • HT1752 I both one Mac Pro 15" March 2009  and five month ago I have to change the harddrive and put some actional memories, since I have to make the upgrade for Lion IOS. Now the motherboard fails. What should I do or expect from Apple to solve this probl

    Hi everyone. I both a Mac Pro 15" in March 2009. Five month ago I  was forced to buy by one new hard drive and extent the memory, because I had to make the upgrade (and pay) to install the new Lion operation system. Four days ago the Mother-board fails. To change it will cost a fortune. What should I do or expect from Apple to solve this problem? I am very disappointed because my trust on Apple was destroyed.

    I am not sure why you are upset with Apple. Electronics equipment does fail. If the product is out of warranty or you do not have AppleCare there's not much you can do with Apple. Apple will charge you for the repair. Suggest you look for a third party repair store since they are usually less expensive than Apple. Alternatively you can buy one for about $850US and install it yourself. Sorry, but there aren't many choices in this situation.
