I am using package multimedia
to insert videos into my PDF document using the command:
\movie[externalviewer]{Caption}{moviefile}
which works fine. My problem is that when I click on the caption I receive a warning message from Adobe Reader before the video launches:
The file and its viewer application are set to be launched by this PDF file. The file may contain programs, macros, or viruses that could potentially harm your computer. Only open the file if you are sure it is safe. If this file was placed by a trusted person or program, you can click Open to view the file.
I understand the security reasons for the error message, but I am giving a presentation with a number of external videos and I would like to disable this message.
I realise this is probably more to do with Adobe Reader and not Latex, but I hoped someone here might be able to help?
I'm using Adobe Reader X Version 10.1.4

and converted my .avi files to .mp4 with Miro Video Converter. Videos now play well within the PDF. Thanks!\PushButton
