Hi all,
Does anyone have experience using the movie15 package with LyX? I
would like to insert a movie in a document, and have it appear as an
animation in the PDF output. I followed the instructions at http://www.uoregon.edu/~noeckel/PDFmovie.html
and I am able to get it to work from a terminal command (pdflatex
movie.tex), so that means I have all the necessary packages
installed. However, importing the sample movie.tex file into LyX
produces a bunch of errors when issuing View->PDF (pdflatex).
Alternatively, copying the necessary \usepackage commands in the
preamble and the basic commands into an ERT box,
\begin{figure}[ht]
\includemovie[poster,
text=(Loading Circle-m-increase3.mp4)]{6cm}{6cm}{Circle-m-increase3.mp4}
\end{figure}
produces the single error
pdfTeX error (ext5): cannot open file for embedding.
Has anyone gotten movie15 to work with LyX?
Thanks,
Gerard
P.S. I am using LyX 1.5.3 on a MacBook Pro running OS X 10.5.1. My
TeX installation is texlive 2007.
