Title: Feature request: Apple trailers in web media
Post by: Osho on June 06, 2007, 08:55:33 pm
Hi,

It would be great if Apple movie trailer website (http://www.apple.com/trailers/) was available under Video -> Web Media. I would love to see their HD trailers playing inside MC12.

thanks,
Osho

can't you just add it yourself (Web Media > Add Website...)?

Yes, I already did that. But the trailer plays inside QuickTime player and not inside MC12. I would like it to play inside MC12.

thanks,

what if, for the format you're dealing with, you change the default player from quicktime to MC?
shouldn't you get what you're looking for?

Nope don't think it works, still comes up in Quick Time.

Yeap it doesn't work, the problem is that the link to the media files are inside quicktime plugin.

thanks,
Osho

So, this means it's impossible to make it play inside MC or what?
Would really look forward to such a function.

Nothing is impossible, we just need to get JimN to do it and he probably needs to get it approved by JimH whom needs to run it by Mr. Jobs, so you can see this could be quite easy. ;)

You know things are serious when JimN's involved.
