Quicktime Logging Go Figure.

by "MishaLuchenkov@[EMAIL PROTECTED] " <MishaLuchenkov@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Jul 5, 2007 at 07:16 PM

from what I can tell QT does not make it easy to log what it is
playing.

I am using QT to run a kiosk and need to be able to log what it
plays.


my solution was to embed a HREFTrack in each of my mov files to call
a
url that triggered a log event.


works great.   the problem is that QT also does not offer the ability
to have it run off a Playlist.


Enter SMIL.  Smil works great to manage QT and have it run a Playlist
automatically.


the Problem is that SMIL disables the HREFTracks in the mov files.
so
I need a way to use smil but also log what is played.


IDEA!  instead of using HREFTracks, maybe I could use SpriteTracks to
trigger a URL at a given frame and do my logging.


Looks promising,  Wired Sprites seem to run fine in QT when running a
SMIL playlist but now I am at the end of my expertise (O did I
mention
I am a PC guy running XP, don't hate me).


SO here are my questions.


1 does anyone have a better solution to log what quick time plays?


2 does anyone know who I can hire to build me a wired sprite that
will
read the current track name/id and call a url (preferable in an
iframe)?


Please.!? :)


Thanks
