  Embed link with FCP

  Posted by James Chance on November 6, 2009 at 6:09 pm

  Hi! Does anybody know if it is possible to embed a link at the end of a video? I have a request for a link to appear at the end of a video, which will take the viewer to an online donation page. Can this be done? Is this maybe a job for Flash? Any advise greatly appreciated!

  Thanks!

  That would be a perfect job for flash.

  Thanks Michael. Sadly I know very little about Flash, would you happen to know how I might go about embedding the link? Can I embed it directly into the flv? I’ll post on the Flash forum if you are unsure. Thanks for your response!

  Hi
  QuickTime on its own can incorporate this sort of interactivity – with an HREF track:

  The inbuilt toolset to do this can be a bit limited, but there is an application called LiveStage Pro which unlocks all the QuickTime format’s inbuilt depths:

  Thanks Paul! I opted for the first method (as I don’t want to have to shell out $400 for the software). Have you ever tried doing this yourself?.. I have given it a go a few times now and just cant get it to work. The instructions are very thorough… I just don’t know where I am going wrong?
