I don't think it's possible and have never seen it done. Since you can't embed the movie and control it in the page itself, I don't think they will enable that kinda thing until they allow true embeds. Right now they just feed it over to their media player app. I can only assume this is due to their wanting to be able to control the movie controls (buttons) and quality of video overall.
If they allowed you to embed a little .MOV file in a page, how would you play/pause etc? Those little mouse-pointer QT controls wouldn't work with your finger very well. Maybe they could have some kinda semi-transparent overlay controls popup when you interacted with the embedded video. It seems like their current implementation is about usability for the end user. That said, if you do some tests and figure anything out, post it here - I'd love to see what's possible on the cutting edge of Mobile Safari. cheers, brente On Dec 3, 11:20 pm, Sam Dutton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I'd like to be able to use functions like setTime() and setStartTime > to control a QuickTime movie in Mobile Safari. > > This works fine on the desktop, but not on the iPhone. > > I take it from the reference documentation that this is not possible > in a native application either: > > http://developer.apple.com/iphone/library/documentation/MediaPlayer/R... > > Is anything more than play() and stop() available for movies on the > iPhone? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "iPhoneWebDev" group.
