Re: How do I embed QuickTime movies?

Sorry, Walker:

txp:wlk_qt Error: video=19. No image or file with this id is stored in txp.

is generated when I use this:

<txp:wlk_qt video=“18” autoplay=“false” bgcolor=“black” postermovie=“19” pmtype=“image/quicktime” />

and my (seemingly) functioning entry looks like this:

<txp:wlk_qt video=“18” autoplay=“false” bgcolor=“black” postermovie=“19” />

Certainly there is some mistake on my part.
19 is the correct txp id of the image I am using.

In Firefox, Netscape and Safari (Mac, obviously).

Re: How do I embed QuickTime movies?

hmmmm……well….first thing, I think I just copied the video error message when I was building the postermovie functionality.
So, it’s probably still a problem with the postermovie.

I’ll take a look at the code again.

Re: How do I embed QuickTime movies?

Hi, I’ve used your excellent plugin on a couple of sites now.. on this particular one, the customer wants to associate more than one movie with a single article… I created a second custom field called video2, and added

<txp:if_custom_field name="video"> <txp:wlk_qt autoplay="false" /> </txp:if_custom_field> <txp:if_custom_field name="video2"> <txp:wlk_qt autoplay="false" /> </txp:if_custom_field>

to the article form. But, what I’m seeing is the same video (the first one) twice on the page. I was immediately reminded of this little bug.

As it happens, I had already uploaded the new taghandlers.php (because of the file download issue).

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

Re: How do I embed QuickTime movies?

Hmm…..well…technically that bug isn’t the cause of the “same url” thing you’re seeing with my plugin. I’m not using file_download to feed the movie out anymore…..(I don’t think?)

Okay….I just looked through my code…..it’s my fault. there’s a bug.

Re: How do I embed QuickTime movies?

Yo, I just updated my plugin (I rearranged an if:else statement).

Two movies (or more) per article works now….except you need to make sure that you are not using the javascript option (that still can only do one per article).

info here

Wow, thanks for your quick response! I guess I’m doing something wrong, because I’m still getting the same result.

Re: How do I embed QuickTime movies?

Greetings! I am trying to use Plugin for Quick time player. It displays the player and plays the movie.

Despite this, I have got Error message above the player which is (txp:wlk_qt Warning: video=http://www.example.com/files/intro12.mov. Plugin can’t verify file existension. Make sure that given file http://www.example.com/files/intro12.mov exists and has vaild path.)

What is the mistake? I could not figure it out.

Another: Could not change default width and height of QT Player.

Thanks for this plugin
Sheru

Re: How do I embed QuickTime movies?

Hmm….use the javascript version. Works better. I’ll have to take a look at this plugin. I’ll do it today. I’m using a couple functions that I’ve been finding people don’t have.

Re: How do I embed QuickTime movies?

Hi, Thank you for your response and great time.
I am currently using wlk_qt of version 0.9.8 and Which one is the javascript version? Could you please drop your message here after adding in your plugin?

Once again thank you so much for the great plugin.
