oops

this last msg was supposed to be half-answering this subject ([pmwiki-users] quicktime external URL), not the one listed...

hi
solved half of this quicktime issue:

the example on the quicktime page worked:
(:quicktime Attach:myfile.ext arg1=someting arg2=something:)

but when i tried to add in an external URL, this didn't:

(:quicktime Attach:http://www.externalwebsite.com/myfile.extarg1=someting arg2=something:)

after looking around in the recipe code, realized that the'Attach:' is not necessary, and in fact the code treats the inputdifferently depending on whether it sees an 'Attach:' first 'http'-- so THIS works:

(:quicktime http://www.externalwebsite.com/myfile.ext arg1=sometingarg2=something:)


i added a little note & example to clarify on the quicktime page...

however, my other question below, regarding pumping some defaultvariables into this recipe, still stands... as do the otherquestions in the other emails.


thanks!
adam

hi again

in addition, i'd like to know if it is possible yet to embed a
quicktime file from an external URL?

i've noticed that some other users have posted the same question in
the past, but there are no responses recorded on the mailing list
archives. the only bit of advice comes from the quicktime recipe page
which recommends adding $QuickTimeExternalResource = 1; to one's
config, but that doesn't seem to solve the issue...

any suggestions? is this feature simply not yet enabled?
thanks!
adam

hi one more time
here are some more questions i have after working with the flash and
quicktime recipes for an afternoon:

first off - thanks for the plugins!

1. flash.php works fine, swf.php doesn't at all:

        %width=400 height=400% Attach:myFlashFile.swf
                seems like it would work, but it doesn't
                ** the (:flash... equivalent for the same file works fine...

2. loading swf as
        include_once('$cookbook/swf.php');
    executes fine, but loading it as
        include_once('$FarmD/cookbook/swf.php');
    gives the following errors:

Warning: main($FarmD/cookbook/swf.php) [function.main]: failed to
open stream: No such file or directory in /home/aoverton/
public_html/pmwiki/local/config.php on line 452

Warning: main() [function.include]: Failed opening '$FarmD/cookbook/
swf.php' for inclusion (include_path='./:../:/home/aoverton/
public_html/includes') in /home/aoverton/public_html/pmwiki/local/
config.php on line 452

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by
(output started at /home/aoverton/public_html/pmwiki/local/
config.php:452) in /home/aoverton/public_html/pmwiki/pmwiki.php on
line 1075



i don't have a farm, and haven't ever had one, so maybe i'm
misunderstanding something about how $FarmD is being used. (i figured
i'd try it, though, in case i ever have a farm, i don't have to go
searching around and change all my paths...)


3. i'm also finding myself unable to load videos or audio that has
been uploaded to different parts of the same site...
for instance...

        myVid.mov
                uploaded to group Main
        loads fine if i call the (:quicktime ... code anywhere in Main
        but it fails if i call it anywhere in MyOtherGroup - instead, it
prints out a non-functional link to the video:
                http://mysite.org/pmwiki/uploads/Main/myVid.mov

so: is there a way to embed videos or audio that has been uploaded to
another part of the same site?


thank you. the recipes that are working for me are all very useful.
adam
