USING ACROBAT 9 PRO 370 Multimedia and 3D models Note: Media players have different capabilities. Some rendition settings, such as player controls, are not available for some players. In such cases, you can determine whether the player may be used to play the rendition by changing the requirement settings on the Playback Requirements tab. Media Settings Use this tab to specify general properties for the video clip: • Rendition Name Enter the name for the rendition, which will appear in the list of renditions. (This name does not determine which media file is played.) • Rendition Is Accessible To JavaScript Use this option if you're using JavaScript code that makes use of the rendition. • Media Clip Location Specify the clip by typing or navigating to it. (When you specify the clip location, Content Type is set automatically. Changing the Content Type setting may cause problems playing the media.) • Rendition Alternate Text Type a description of the rendition that may be read aloud to visually impaired viewers. • Allow Temp File Specify whether writing a temp file is allowed and when. Some media players write a temp file when they play a video clip. If you want to prevent users from easily copying the media content in a secure document, you may want to disallow the creation of temp files. However, selecting this setting may prevent the video from being played by media players that require the use of temp files. Playback Settings Use this tab to determine how the clip is played. • Keep Player Open Select whether you want the player to close after it plays the video clip, be left open indefinitely, or be left open for the number of seconds you specify. • Volume Lets you specify how loud the video is played. • Show Player Controls When selected, displays a controller bar at the bottom of the play area that lets users stop, pause, and play, provided the media player supports player controls. • Repeat Lets you replay a clip two or more times, or continuously. • Player List Click Add to specify a player and the settings that are required, preferred, or disallowed to play the video clip. Select the name of the player, the minimum version number of the player, and the status. If you set the status of more than one player to Required, only one of the required players may be used to play the rendition. If you set the status of players to Preferred, these players are selected over nonpreferred players (but not over required players). If you set the status of players to Disallowed, they are not used to play the rendition. Playback Location Use this tab to determine whether a video clip is played in the PDF, remains hidden while played (recommended for sound clips), is played in a floating window, or is played full screen. When Floating Window is selected, you can add a title, set the window position, and let the user resize or close the window. Note that the user's preference settings may require (or ignore) title bar text for playback. The window position is determined relative to the document window, application window, or, for dual-monitor configurations, the virtual desktop or primary desktop. You may also specify the width and height of the floating window. Click Get From Media to obtain the video clip's dimensions, if available, and then edit as necessary. System Requirements Use this tab to choose the minimum settings for systems on which the video clip is played. For example, you can require that a user have at least a 1024-by-768 screen resolution to play the video clip. For options such as Play Dubbed Audio, you can select Either, Disabled, or Enabled. If you select Either, you defer to the settings in the user's Multimedia panel of the Preferences dialog box. If you select Disabled or Enabled, the corresponding setting in Multimedia preferences must allow the rendition to be used. For example, if the Play Dubbed Audio option is enabled, the rendition may be used only if the Play Dubbed Audio preference option is selected. Playback Requirements Use this tab to select which attributes are required for the rendition to be played. The attributes on this tab include settings from the other tabs, letting you indicate which ones are required. For example, Last updated 9/30/2011
