When a presentation plays as a movie, each slide appears for a uniform amount of time unless you set individual timings, or record the slide show to establish timing for the entire presentation. For more information about setting slide timings, see Rehearse and set slide timings.
We've Got One! movie download in mp4
Using Firefox 65, I'm trying to get back a basic functionality I've had for years (prior to Quantum).I have a link to an .m4v video file that I need to download (I don't ever want links directly to m4v, mp4, mov, etc playing in the browser, I need to download these files to my computer). Whenever I click the link, it automatically opens up a blank page and starts playing the video. Nothing I do will give me the 'Ask what to do' prompt. How can I fix this?Things I've tried:Changing the default action to 'Mpeg-4 movie' under Options/Applications to 'Always Ask'. Even if the link is an mp4, it still plays it in the browser.Manually added an entry for .m4v by editing handlers.json, and setting it to 'Always ask'. Still plays in the browser.Set both Mpeg-4 Movie and the manual m4v entry to 'Save File'. Still plays in the browser.Tried doing a 'Save As' while it was playing to just save my file, but Firefox then tries to save the file as 'FileName.m4v.mp4' instead of just 'FileName.m4v'. I'm not sure if it's actually re-wrapping the file into another container, or just arbitrarily adding an extra extension to the filename, but I need it to, by default, save as the file name that is used on the server... (If it's just renaming the file, I can live with this one bug if I can make the rest of the functionality work.)
Here's a test page: _for_everybody/test.htmlUnderneath the thumbnail image/embedded video there direct links to an mp4, ogg video and WebM video.The action I want, when I click on any one of those, is for Firefox to prompt me with a download location to save the file to (the usual 'Always Ask' dialog box). NOTHING should attempt to play in the web browser itself.I've been able to do this with every version of Firefox 'pre-Quantum', but I just can't make the latest version do it...
(Another work-around that may seem obvious is to right-click the file name and click 'Save Link As'. While this works on the sample page, it doesn't work on the pages I have to download these videos from... It's a scripted button that sends back the link to the file when clicked on.)
Yep, but that does not answer my question.I'm not trying to find alternative ways of saving a video, I'm trying to get Firefox to work like it's supposed to (and used to).The videos I need to download I can't right-click on, they are buttons I have to 'normal-click' on, then I get the download prompt, but the functionality is the same as if you clicked the 'MP4' link under the video in the sample link. Only now, since the 'Always Ask' functionality is broken, I never get the download prompt, it just starts playing.
If there's some way to make clicking on the MP4 link give me an 'Always Ask' style dialog so I can chose download instead of play, that will fix my problem. That's why I provided that link to test so others can see the problem I'm having.
Yes, those are exactly the links I referenced in my original post. I want to be able to click (normal click, not right-click) on any one of those links, and immediately have Firefox ask what to do with the file. That way I can chose 'save file' and just download it directly to my computer.
Browsers in general are producing a seamless experience by enabling video display direct in the View so that there is less downloading and swapping of technology to render the video. With so many video playing apps in the market, it just makes the experience more fluid and easier to manager by having the web browser handle it.
Well, I only use Firefox, so I'd be fine if it's specific to Firefox...I'm trying to download from someone else's server, so have no access to the settings on it. (In this case, I am the user... :) )And, in general, I'd want this functionality to work from any server with a direct link to a file... (And, in many cases, I can just do the right-click thing, but sometimes I forget, and on one server I don't have that option, so it's actually more 'seamless' for me to never have the browser try to play video from direct links.)
I understand the dumbing-down of browsers for the average masses, but then why have a setting that I can manually change, specifically for files with an .mp4 extension where I can state 'Always Ask what do with this' and then completely ignore that setting? (Keeping in mind, this setting worked PERFECTLY on all versions of Firefox prior to Quantum.)I'm not trying to PLAY the video file, I need to download it so I can put in Final Cut, burn to a disc, play on a hardware player, etc... That's the reason I have direct links to the files themselves, vs embedded player links or something.
So, where's a link to one of these sites you've noted? Also, it may that some of these sites may not want downloading available. They will make it difficult if not outright impossible to download a video. Some video/audio links don't end with 'MP4' or 'MP3'. I gotta dance through hoops to get some Twitter videos to download. I can't do a simple 'Right-Click' 'Save Video As'. You didn't find an Extension that provides 'downloading' of videos? A 'screen' recorder to capture videos?
The sites are password protected (studio content) so I wouldn't be able to share them if I wanted to. That's why I used the Bunny link, if it works there, it will work on the password protected sites. I'm not trying to download videos that people don't want downloaded (like YouTube, etc...), these are links directly to files for the purpose of downloading for local work. That's why I don't want them to ever play, but just download...I was just trying to get back the old functionality, which cor-el figured out for me.It was just a hard thing to search for because all the Google provided results were for people that were having problems getting the videos to play, where mine was the opposite... :)
There is a wide variety of software for combining MP4 files you can use depending on your video editing needs. The following is a list of some of the best MP4 merger options for Windows and Mac computers we've found for merging video files.
Video Toolbox is another great free video merger for Windows, but unlike other programs, you can't download this online free tool. However, you can easily use this program to edit your videos as an all-in-one editor capable of creating high-quality videos.
Microsoft Photos is a spiritual successor to Windows Movie Maker. The latter is no longer available for download from legal sources, but the former comes with Windows 10. Microsoft Photos offers simple image and video editing tools, perfect for casual users.
If you own a Mac computer, you can use the default iMovie program without any need to download additional software. Like the Windows counterpart of Windows Movie Maker, iMovie offers a nice intuitive interface and plenty of editing features for combining video files.
I told them to download the videos with F12 tools, and they weren't clear how. I'll use an Azure Friday video for the example. Do be aware that there are a ton of ways to embed video on the web and this doesn't get around ones that REALLY don't want to be downloaded. This won't help you with Netflix, Hulu, etc.
Get Curl: If you don't have the "curl" command you'll want to download "curl.exe" from here and, if you like, put it in your PATH. If you have Windows, get the free bundled curl version with installer here.
Open a terminal/command prompt - run cmd.exe on Windows - and paste in the command. If the browser you're using only gives you the URL and not the complete "curl" command, the command you're trying to build is basically curl [url] -o [outputfile.mp4]. It's best if you can get the complete command like the one Chrome provides, as it may include authentication cookies or other headers that omitting may prevent your download from working.
You can change the length the song like you would any other clip. You can also use more than one song in a project. For example, if you want to change the mood of the music over the course of your movie, you can shorten the first song in the timeline, then place a different song after the first song.
An MP4 file is a multimedia file used for storing, sharing, downloading, and streaming video clips from the internet. It is a versatile file type that can store video, audio, images, and even subtitles. MP4 video files are one of the most common file formats used on the internet today.
If your file does not automatically open, you can download the free, cross-platform software VLC media player, follow the instructions to associate the program with the .mp4 file extension, and you should be able to open and play your files then.
If you have a collection of old home movies recorded on videotapes or old film reels, chances are you have no way to view them. The good news is that you can indeed convert home videos into MP4 video files to save, view, and share with your family. It is also a smart and safe idea. As videotapes and film reels age, it gets harder to preserve the content stored on them.
For tech-savvy individuals, converting home movies to digital can be a fairly straightforward DIY project. If convenience and safety are a priority, choosing a professional video transfer service like Nostalgic Media is the way to go.
Another upload-and-go type of video conversion service. If you're interested in how to change MOV to MP4 without downloading some weird third-party app and none of the preceding sites make the cut for you, CloudConvert is a solid option.
MP4 file is a popular format for online video, but sometimes you may find that there's no sound on MP4 when you try to play them. This can be frustrating, especially if you're trying to watch a movie or TV show online. In this article, we'll discuss the possible reasons why your MP4 videos might be without sound, and we'll provide some tips on how to fix the problem. Keep on reading to learn more! 2ff7e9595c
