Setting other options for movie tracks

In the More tab of the Movie Track Inspector:

Slave Time

Restricts the embedded file from playing until the root movie time reaches the file's start time. The timeline of the root movie controls the embedded file--that is, it plays like any other nonmovie track. If the embedded file is longer in duration than its movie track duration, this option also stops the movie when the end of the movie track duration bar is reached.

Autoplay

Sets the movie track to play immediately whenever a Web browser loads the embedded file, even if the root movie is not playing.

Slave Audio

Ignores any audio in the embedded file and uses the root movie's audio instead.

Frame Stepping

Specifies whether or not the embedded movie is affected by frame step operations, such as when the viewer uses the QuickTime controller to move the movie forward or backward.

Slave Graphics Mode

Ignores the graphics mode of the embedded file and uses the root movie's graphics mode instead.

Slave Track Duration

Sets the movie track's duration to the full length of the embedded file.

Loop

From the Loop menu, select how you want the embedded video file to play back. Choose None to play the complete video file once and then stop. Choose Loop to play the complete video file from beginning to end repeatedly if Autoplay is selected and Slave Time is not selected. Choose Palindrome to play the complete video file forward and then backward repeatedly.

Background Color

Sets the background color displayed in the movie track area while the embedded file is downloading, or if embedded file fails to load.

Enable Clipping Time

Lets you specify a portion of the embedded file that you want to play. Enter a start time in the Clip Start Time text box, and then enter a duration in the Clip Duration text box.
