Re: start a streaming movie half-way



Oliver:

I couldn't get the SMIL tags working with a stream either. One 
alternative is to use a tool like LiveStage Pro. With LiveStage Pro you 
can embed a sprite in a movie, or create sprite movies that control 
other movies on the same web page.

For instance:

This LiveStage Pro script:
Movienamed("refmovie").setselection(0:5.0,0:7.0)
Movienamed("refmovie").setplayselection(True)
Movienamed("refmovie").startplaying

Will start a movie tagged as "refmovie" on the same web page at 5 
seconds and play until 7 seconds. To tag the movie, use the "moviename" 
parameter in the embed tag. Enclosed is a small movie with that script 
for you to experiment with.

LiveStage Pro exposes the interactive power of QuickTime and is highly 
recommended...
