Subject: Movie as externalfigure
Date: Thu, 16 Sep 2004 16:42:49 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20040916144249.GC29991@cebitec.uni-bielefeld.de> (raw)

Hi all,

probably I'm missing something trivial, but I can't make context include
a mov-file. Here is my input:

\starttext
   \externalfigure[mdmovie.mov]
      [label=md,width=4cm,height=4cm,preview=yes]
\stoptext

I don't get a movie in the pdf resulting from `texexec --pdf`, only this
message seems to be a hint:

figures        : figure mdmovie.mov is not preset

I found this problem in the archive; it was solved by specifying height
and width.
But I did already specify both height and width, so what's the problem?
The movie is located in the same directory as the tex-file, so it has to
be found, too. (And I guess 'preset' is not a typo anyway, is it?)
I couldn't find anything helpful in the docs or the wiki, either.

My version is the latest beta:
pdfeTeX, Version 3.14159-1.10a-RC3-2.1 (Web2C 7.4.3)
ConTeXt  ver: 2004.8.18  fmt: 2004.9.16  int: english  mes: english

Thanks in advance,
Eckhart
