Quicktime Poster frames Safari iOS=yes - MacOS=No

mlsphoto · **Joined:** Sat Jun 04, 2011 4:03 am **Posts:** 7

Using the now dubious iWeb, I set the poster frame for a movie as specified, upload the website to my FTP service (thank heavens it's NOT mobileme), and when I view the cinematography page on an iOS device, the poster frame setting is respected; on MacOS (safari) - no poster frame - a black opening frame.

Ugh.

Any help?

Thanks in advance,

Hi Michael,

unfortunately the poster frame doesn't work in Mac OS but only in iOS.

If the movie starts with a black screen maybe it would work if you would add the poster frame to the movie itself (in iMovie) for it to start with the poster frame.

But I didn't try that.

Regards,
Cédric

Good morning (afternoon/evening for you) Cedric,

That's what I figured after more reading - I put a jpeg at the front of each movie with final cut pro.
If you have a moment, please take a look and see what you think. I tested it on MacOS, iOS, and PC.

Rapidweaver - looks like I need to get that tutorial too!
