Plugin #2. I built another helper to fulfill my need to embed Quicktime videos. Like the DRY developer I try to be, I decided I'd make a nice little plugin out of it. I took it even further by incorporating Geoff Stearns' great javascript Quicktime object, qtobject.
After including the 'qtobject.js' file in your view, using the quicktime_tag helper is simple:
quicktime_tag(:path_to_video_file, :id, :width, :height, options = {} )
Extra parameters that are used by the quicktime embed object can be added using the options hash. For Example:
quicktime_tag(:path_to_video_file, :id, :width, :height, {:loop => true, :autoplay => false} )

Mmm, Del.icio.us
I've tried to inovke the script using this line on ROR:
< %= quicktime_tag(:path_to_video_file => post.image_url, :id => post.id, :width=> "480", :height=> "220", {:loop => false, :autoplay => false} ) %>
It takes the ID & path to video from the db. For some reason is not working correctly. Could you let me know what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks
try:
try
<%= quicktime_tag(post.image_url , post.id, 480 , 220, {:loop => true, :autoplay => false} ) %>Got the same problem here.. no errors but no movie either
Hi,
I ve discovered you Quictime_helper which seems to be great.. i would like to know if you realized something equivalent with the flashobject (or swfobject)...
And using your quicktime_helper, is there a parameters for redirecting the user to an other action if quicktime is not present.?
Thx a lot in advance,
regards
Guillaume.
