commute interactive (test)

Click image to view video This is an old (2001) interactive quicktime project that i am reusing to test in ANT and Mefeedia. Seems like "movies" need absolute (not relative) url paths to work properly. Also, there seem to be QT7 issues with Livestage Pro. Sprites don't work the way they should. Here, by clicking the title text, four videos should play. Rollingover each panel should pause the movie and should move the timeline of other movies. To start playing, just click inside the movie…this is what doesn't work in QT7. Oh, well. Patience. UPDATE: Unfortunately, until QT7 fixes some bugs, interactive quicktime isn't going to work. In my case the "ThisMovie" command is disfunctional. …urghh!

I got a title screen for a split second then nothing. Using ANT on powerbook g4.

Hmm. My podcatcher dowbloaded something, but it was only 5k in size. Is this some sort of “container” that then remote-loads the rest of the content? I know that there was a much bigger than usual startup delay on this “movie”.

If this is the case, is there any way of integrating all the content into a single download? I often downloaded enclosures (both audio “podcasts” and video “videoblogs”) overnight and transfer them to my laptop or MP3 player to take in later when I don’t have a network connection. And this will be a much bigger problem in a year or two when evereyone carries media on PSP, Video iPod or smartphone players.

Oh, and it refused to play in the VLC player I usually use for playing Quicktime (it doesn’t let the audio get out of sync like the QT player does), so I had to dust off the relatively unused QT player.
