Add the Video Player to the Window
Now that you have created a stack window and saved your work it is time to start adding objects to your window. Let's start with adding an object that can play QuickTime videos. In Revolution the Player object can do this.
Add Player Object To Stack Window
Edit Player Object Properties
Now you need to give the Player object a name and load a video to play. You can perform both of these actions from within the Object Inspector. To open the Object Inspector for the Player:
1) Make sure the Edit tool is selected in the Tools palette.
2) Select the Player (selection handles will appear around the Player)
3) Choose Object > Inspector
Set Name and Source
Select Movie File
The Result
Resize Stack Window
Center The Player Object
Play The Movie
Next Steps
Now that you have created a Player object we will look at how to create a menu and dynamically load a movie based on the menu selection.
I have tried this several times but when I place the video player on a stack, it is placed as a plain box, there are no controls, i.e. play, pause, sound, etc. Also in the object inspector, though I have selected the file, there are no entries in the time current time box or the "of" display. What am I doing wrong?
