Mike--

At least parts of that trailer were done with LiveStage Pro ( http://www.totallyhip.com/ ).

You could also get some of what you want with a (free) Applescript at:

http://www.apple.com/applescript/quicktime/index.html

There is a script there, "Save As Presentation File," that lets you change a QuickTime movie so that it plays full screen, closes when done, etc.

You need a Mac to run the script, but the movie works cross platform.

I'm reposting this in hopes of a response. (last post was 9/30/03)

Information request,

We're looking for the code & instructions that will
1.  Get the current Display (Monitor) size
2.  Set the Display (Monitor) to 640x480
3.  Play the .mov file in a full screen black background window
(html, QuickTime or other)
4.  When the .mov closes, (optional: Quit QuickTime if necessary )
4.  Reset the Display (Monitor) from 640x480 back to its "original"
Display (Monitor) size (from step 1)?

Here is an example that demonstrates that it can be done! Apple QuickTime movie trailer Underworld http://www.apple.com/trailers/sony_pictures/underworld/ trailer_fullscreen.html

  - Click here to watch the full screen trailer -

You might not notice the Display size switching if you only have one
monitor but it does.

TIA,

Mike Paladino
