Using Links For Movie Playback

I have been trying to get a movie to play in a defined set of
coordinates when a link is clicked. (ex. Click a link and the movie
file plays in a predetermined "box-thats a bit irregular in shape")
What would be the best method for this? I have saved the movie as a
SWF file. I also have a copy of the movie that is a flv too. I
simply want my web pages to be videos instead of basic text pages.
Should I just move the project over to Dreamweaver, create a a new
layer "under" the main layer with the "box" cut out so you can see
the underlying layer and create frames on the underlying level? My
guess is that I could load the movie file into the frame on that
underlying layer. The main layer would then be a mask.
or
Should I try to load a Flv Player component and use my main
layer to mask it and just keep switching movies? What code would be
needed?
or
Should I just create all the movies onto different layers in
Flash 8 and show/hide the ones (layers) I need when the link is
clicked? Would that increase my file size by much? Any help would
be greatly appreciated! I am new to this, and I'm just getting
familiar with Actionscript but I do grasp the basic understanding
of it.
Also, I have embedded my movie files with cuepoints. 1 at the
beginning where I want text to appear, and 1 at the end to maybe
unload the movie in order to load a new one (if I would even have
to-i'm not sure)
Please Help!! This site is almost done, just need to connect
the peaces! Thanks for taking the time to read this!!!

The trigger for the video is a button, not a frame in the
main timeline. Everything else is fine, I just cannot get my video
to play when clicking the link (button). I have 7 links
(navigational buttons ) in all. Clicking each one should take the
user to a different page (video) which displays in the main window
of my project. The main window is actually "cut out" so the flv
player can be seen behind it (or anything else can be seen behind
it). Like I said earlier, I have the video saved as an flv file and
also as a swf file so so I could either use the flv with the player
OR add the other swf file to the current project somehow if needed.
Once I get this right I can figure out how to make the scrollable
text appear at the embedded cuepoint on my own. Thanks!

  • No sound when using Airplay for Movies on Apple TV

    For reasons unknow, when I try to stream full length movies (Lion King and Nemo bought from iTunes) from my iPhone or Macbook Pro using Airplay, there is no sound.  When I stream smaller movies, like Boundin' the Pixar Short, there is no problem.
    Side note 1: Why do purchased movies not show up like purchased TV shows on Apple TV?  I feel like I shouldn't have to use Airplay for movies if I don't need to use it for TV shows I buy.
    Side note 2: For some Netflix movies played directly from Apple TV there is no sound.  Other movies work fine and the movies that work or don't work seem to change day to day.
    Thanks for your help.

    Apple has not negotiated the rights to allow this is the assumed reason.
    We can't even play Purchased music or TV Shows from the cloud in UK.

  • How to Disable "Use itunes for internet playback"?

    I accidentally clicked the SET button in itunes which defaults itunes for internet playback.
    I do not want this.
    How do I revert back?
    I DO NOT want to use itunes for internet playback and I can not find any way to shut it off.

    Here's one way around it. For example, open iTunes, open the radio playlist and drag any station to the desktop. Highlight the icon, and click Command i. In the Info window there is a command "Open with:" It probably has iTunes as the default. If so, hold down the arrow for a menu of applications to choose from. (Mine has RealPlayer and Quicktime available.) If those aren't listed, choose "Other.." A window will open with available applications. Choose one and close the Info window. Open the application you've chosen. The controls will appear. Click Command o (Open). In the desktop window choose your radio station and play. I hope this works for you. It should work for any streaming source. Now if some body could tell me how to stop those irritating "rebuffering" interruptions, that'd be great.

  • Want to use Quicktime for Internet Playback but i cant

    Hi
    I want to use Quicktime in Firefox or Camino for Internet Playback of MP3 files but i cant change it!
    Dont know whats wrong here. Everytime i want to listen to an MP3 Track RealPlayer comes in and does the job...
    All the searching through the net didnt help much. :'(
    Maybe someone knows how i can fix this.
    Thanks in advance!
    Zettt
    [EDIT:]
    The site which causes the trouble is www.myownmusic.de

    That Site has coded the html to call the Real Player plug-in. You could look at the source code, find the .mp3 file (and its complete URL) and open that URL in the QuickTime Player.
    May not be worth the effort. I am able to view the entire .mp3 URL in Safari's Activity window and use copy/paste to the QT Player's "Open URL" dialog.

  • Link for movie not available

    I am using the Canadian itunes store
    When I go to movies, select the Romance genre, at the top is a image for P.S I love you, but there is no link attached to the picture and the movie is not listed when I select "see all"
    Is anyone getting the link to work, if not, can someone tell me where I can report this. Thanks!

    Hello *****,
    Thank you for writing back to iTunes Store Customer Support.
    *****, as mentioned from previous email - if the item was modified in the iTunes Store (even just iTunes extras added from the original one), it is not possible repost the item and also it is not available for you to download from iTunes in the Cloud, as we already have no access to the original you've redeemed or purchased.
    When you buy a film with iTunes Extras, you’ll receive the featured movie and chapter selection along with special features* such as movie stills, deleted scenes, exclusive interviews, and behind-the-scenes footage. This extras doesn't affect the movie itself as it is just a special features, and the movie should still play to your computer or Apple TV.
    I hope I was able to adequately address your concern. If you do have any further questions regarding this issue, do not hesitate to email me back, and I will help in any way I can. Have a great day, *****!
    Sincerely, 
    So if you purchase a movie without extras and they add them you lose the movie in the cloud. That is really dumb!!!!!!!!!!

  • Suitable share settings for movie playback

    I have a MacBook Pro with dual core I7 2.66 Ghz processor and 8 GB of Ram. Operating system is OSX 10.7.5.
    I processed my movie project using Final Cut Pro X. The project consists of a narrator with other media connected to the main storyline.
    I had no problem processing the project. I imported optimal media and created proxy media for playback. Playback using the timeline browser works fine.
    I just shared my movie using the default “Master File setting.” Playback using VLC player is halting for both video and audio, even when all other applications are closed.  
    The video is to be shown at a family gathering a few days from now.
    1. I shot the video with a digital camera Panasonic DMZ F150 using the built in-microphone. FCPX decided it was a stereo project and I went along, but I am not sure that much is added by this stereo setting. If I were to change to “dual mono”, the only option that FCPX seems to give, would playback performance of the new movie improve? Would sound quality be much affected?
    2. Another possibility would be to just show the movie from the timeline browser (full screen). Playback would be “proxy media quality”. Does this make sense?
    3. Are there other share settings that might improve playback performance without affecting quality much?
    4. Would using Compressor to create the movie help improve playback performance? If so, that would be a good reason to buy Compressor.
      Any advice or guidance will be appreciated.

    Thanks. After some experimenting, I found that export as Quicktime movie as H 263 seems to play on the G3 with good video quality.

  • ITunes on iPhone does not offer DL link for movie purchase!?!

    Is anyone else having this problem?
    I'm browsing thru movies on my iPhone 3G in the iTunes store
    and many of the movies don't have the button
    for purchase or rental. There's details about the purchase.. Like... 'If you buy this
    the SD version will be downloaded to this device and when you connect to
    iTunes on your computer the HD version will download.'
    I don't want to DL this movie to my computer. I'm trying to
    watch movies and TV shows on my iPhone.
    Anyone have any clue to why the link or button to
    purchase or rent is just MISSING for the page?
    This really seems just weird!
    Does iTunes NOT want to make money??
    I think not. PLEASE help.

    Are you using the same iTunes ID on the computer and on the device?

  • Use ASIO4ALL for Skype playback.

    Hello. Something that has been very frustrating for me lately is trying to play keyboard into my comptuer and be in a Skype call at the same time. What I do is I run my MIDI keyboard into FL Studio to play piano or something, but I have to use the ASIO driver to reduce delay. However when I use ASIO ALL other sound on my computer shuts off. I really would love to know if there is a way I could use the ASIO driver in Skype or even better know how to stop ALL sounds from shutting down. Thank you.

    Hi cathystanton55,
    As we mentioned in our reply to your previous post, the FREETALK® Connect•Me was designed to accomodate a single home phone and a landline if available and was not designed for business phones like the Aastra.
    Fore more scalable solutions when using multiple lines please check out our other product FREETALK ® Connect•All, link: freetalkconnect.com/all/
    Connect•All is designed to work with standard SIP phones. Phones from Aastra, Linksys, Polycom and Snom have the advantage of being provisioned automatically with the Connect All system so there is no need for you to do anything but plug them in. You may use other standard SIP phones but you will need to be able to perform some basic provisioning tasks.
    If you still have any questions or concerns, please contact our eBuyNow's Support team by visiting ebuynow.info/en/contact/ and one of our agents will gladly assist you.

  • How do I redeem or use credits for movie rentals?

    I am looking for instructions on how to use the two ITune credits on my account.  I would love to use the, to rent or buy a movie.  Please advise specially how to access them.  Thanks.

    The credits are not from a gift card.  They were applied to my account by a representative of Apple for complications experienced with another attempt to rent a movie.  However, although I can see that the credits are there, I can't find how to use them to rent or buy movies.  Help please. On "how to use them?" 

  • After updating Firefox, each time I want to use links, for instance out of emails, I need to separately open Firefox. Before the update, Firefox opened automatically when I used links from emails. How come?

    I work on Apple MacBook Pro OS X 10.6.7
    Also each time I open Firefox a small window opens as if I have to install Firefox again.

    @Naiks, having suffered through unsuccessful synching attempts for Calendar and Contacts myself, l would suggest you try the following:
    UNINSTALL iCloud control panel from your PC. Seems silly, but do it.
    Go into Outlook, and look at the very top menu. Click FILE, then ACCOUNT SETTINGS, then click the popup box.
    You will see a list of all your email accounts. Make sure that ONE of them has a checkmark against it. If not, select the account your want as your default, and click "set as default.
    Exit out of Outlook and reboot your machine.
    Now reinstall iCloud, check CALENDAR and CONTACTS, and do as instructed when prompted.
    Reboot for good luck and now launch OUTLOOK. All that remains is to locate your iCloud Contacts and Calendar files, and make them your default.
    IMPORTANT: Don't panic if you can't find your contacts -- they're there. Click CONTACTS and you'll see you have several available contact files. Locate the one label "iCloud" in grey type. Right-click on it, select PROPERTIES, then click the Outlook Address Book tab. Check the box that says something like "Make this my default Outlook Address Book." Keep clicking "apply" and "okay" until you've exited out of the dialog box maze.
    You may have to do something similar with your Calendar files. I dd not, but if you need to, do it.
    Everything should now sync pretty seamlessly.
    I didn't have the exact same problem as you, but my dilemma was close enough. Good luck!
