Slide video

Hello,
   I have created a Captivate 8 responsive project. In this project I captured a software simulation. One of the software sim slides was captured as a video slide. How do I remove the video part of the slide w/o being prompted top delete the whole slide? If I try to just delete the video part, I am asked if I want to delete the whole slide. I have tried hiding just the video element, but then it hides the whole slide.Any ideas or suggestions?
Thank you!
Peter

Since that particular slide only contains the video, why are you opposed to deleting it?

  • Does Captivate 7/8 support *Dynamic* Streaming Video for synchronized Multi-Slide videos?

    I'm experimenting with inserting Streaming Video into Captivate Lessons.  I've set up an Adobe Media Server (AMS) to stream the video.
    When inserting Multi-Slide Synchronized video, it's not clear whether/how I can insert a Dynamic Streaming Video link in a synchronized Multi-Slide Video. 
    (The Dynamic videos can switch between videos of varying quality based on the user's available bandwidth.) 
    I think you're supposed use a URL that points to a manifest file (.F4M), which catalogs the videos of varying bitrates.  However, I can't seem to get it to work in Captivate and Adobe is a little vague on how/if one references the manifest file. (i.e. I can't find any examples.)
    So, does Captivate support dynamic streaming video?
    If not, which is more robust in Captivate? HTTP progressive download or regular (non-Dynamic) RTMP Streaming Video?

    Thanks Erik.
    We did some more tests/checking-around and have convinced ourselves that the URL needs to point to the manifest file in order for Dynamic Media Streaming to work.
    When we examined the Adobe Media Server sample web page (below), we found buttons to select different media sources.
    The 'Multiple Bitrate' button under RTMP Dynamic Streaming Sample is mapped to the URL of an F4M (manifest) file.
    The 'Single Bitrate' button is mapped to an individual mp4 file.
    We also found more clues in the FlowPlayer RTMP F4M page.
    Also, I'm guessing that Captivate can't handle adaptive bitrate streaming from non-RTMP sources based on the menu options. (See screen capture below)
    If the menu above is correct, the first choice is the opposite of streaming media, because it says 'Progressive Download'.  (Progressive download caches the video file on the client machine.)
    The next one is for private Adobe Media Streaming and the third is for 3rd-party Adobe Media Streaming services.
    So, I'm pretty much convinced that it's not supported.

  • Embed slide video in mp4 publish

    Hello,
    Is it possible to publish a Captivate 6 project with slide video as one main mp4 file?! I need to have the slide video (flv) be incorporated in the main video file rather than an external files. In my published mp4 video the slide videos don't show. Instead, there is an indicator "connection error" where the video ist supposed to be.
    Best regards

  • Imovie slide & video shows

    Hi - Im a little confused and frustrated. I prepared a photo slideshow in imovie and I also have selected video clips in imovie which I want to intersperse with this slideshow so it becomes a combined slide & video show. So I may start with three or four slides, switch to a video clip then back to slides for a while then insert a further clip and so on. Is this possible and how do I do it? Ive trawled through a bunch of google how to's and apple community answers but there doesnt seem to be any easy answer except go back to iphoto and import from there which becomes tedious having done it all before. I would also like to keep the inserted maps that I made for the slide show. Any help is greatly appreciated

  • Slide videos (FLV's) starting and stopping

    I've published a number of swf's for a training course that I'm producing. Each of these contain a couple of FLV's, inserted as slide videos, one at the front of the slideset and the other about half way through. The problem is that a number of people who are beta testing for me are having issues replaying the FLV's within the swfs, as they keep stopping and starting before they can view them properly.
    I have a preloader on the front of every swf, so shouldn't that give enough time for the FLV to buffer before playing, or doesn't the FLV preload at all?
    I'd really appreciate some help with this.
    Thanks,
    Pippa

    Hi George,
    That's really very helpful of you!  Many thanks. However, my problem is with the FLV video starting and starting. That is being downloaded as an external file within the swf that I'm playing, so the loader widget would only have an effect upon any flash element of the swf and not upon an FLV.
    As far as I can see, the preloader doesn't have any effect upon the FLV, so if you have an FLV as the first slide, the preloader runs until the swf has downloaded, the swf starts to play, but then you get a black loading screen, while the FLV downloads.  I also have another FLV in the middle of the slideset, so when the swf gets to that point, again, I get a black loading screen until the video has downloaded. 
    I'm struggling to find a solution.  It's really very important that the swf including FLV's play smoothly all the way through, as I'm producing a set of talking head training videos with quizzes and they need to look professional. I like the way Captivate produces slidesets together with the ability to produce quizzes, but I'm not sure that the video integration is so good.
    The only option I can think of is to take out the quizzes and produce those as swfs and then publish the remainder of the slidesets as mp4's, rather than swf's.
    Does anyone else have any other suggestions?
    Thanks Pippa
    Good luck with your question, George.  I'll take a look at it, but suspect that I'm more in the dark about it than you!

  • Video size in TOC using insert slide video

    Hello Is that possible to increase the size of the video in the TOC, it automatically resize it to Height 144 and Width 196 and i would like it bigger as the original size is bigger. Or i cant do that and i need to use another method?
    Thanks
    xav

    Hello
    kcabe,
    When you inser the Slide video, you get two options to place that video
    1- You can place it in the middle of the screen/windows by default
    2- You can check TOC and have TOC in your project and let the video play at the top of TOC that is in the left top corner
    Here are the screnshots
    Step1 > How to choose video above TOC
    STEp 2>
    This is how the video gonna look like (NOTE You cannot change the size of this particular video placed above TOC)
    hope it helps!!!
    Thank you

  • Captivate 8: Slide Videos Repeat when Publishing in HTML5

    Conditions: Slide with MP4 h.264 video (no audio track) and separate audio track. Slide action on exit is to go to the next slide. Timeline is trimmed to .1 sec after end of video (Captivate doesn't allow it to be trimmed closer)
    Issue: Slide video will play through with sound, then video will repeat with no sound before advancing to the next slide
    I should note that while all of my slides are set up the same way, only certain slides have the issue. I have not been able to determine what (if any) difference there is or if it is an issue that impacts slides at random.
    This problem has been described by other users with no seeming workaround. Any solutions are greatly appreciated!

    Thanks Shriyansh. I've emailed you with a link to download the project along with the following additional details:
    Browsers I'm testing for compatability (all are up-to-date as far as I know):
    - Also, the slides that were repeating yesterday aren't repeating today

    Internet Explorer 11.0.9600.17358
    Safari for Windows 5.1.7
    Firefox 33.0 (Captivate says Firefox doesn't support the content so I'm not expecting a solution for FF, however, firefox repeats the first slide very consistently)

  • PreLoader/Slide video buffering issues

    Hi I am experiencing problems with my project that uses a mixture of slide video and standard Captivate content. The course preloader displays, the content starts to play then, on a slide video, slide the video will stop and the slide video pre-loader will appear before eventually restarting. I don't think it's a band-width thing because I have tested it on a very good connection and the same thing happens.
    What I really want is to get the main course pre-loader to include FLV slide video file size in it's assessment of what has to be loaded - to avoid the FLV slide video buffering and showing its own pre-loader.
    Does anyone have any thoughts?
    I have tried the solutions offered here http://forums.adobe.com/ but unfortunately this introduced other issues.
    Also is there any way of changing the default “loading …” text that comes up when a slide video does need to buffer ?
    Many thanks for any help

    Slide Video FLVs dont get loaded in the pre-loader. Since the videos could be so large, they are loaded only when encounterted in the project (just when video is being seen). You will usually see a "loading..." message here.
     Please try this best practices for frequent buffering problems - Many customers resolved similar problems with it by calculating actual video sizes mathing your network capability.

  • Editing Slide Video with preview

    Hi there,
    I have made a slide video (published mp4) and in CP6 clicking on (Edit Video timing) in the Properties panel, I do get the video/swf to show 1 screenshot, bu will not display full preview of the swf......jsut atiny 300*200 (aprox) window on bottom right of the Properties panel....
    Is there a way to view a larger preview th anyone knows of? (aside from actually running the mp4 video).......image below shows what I am getting....

  • Problems with Slide Video, when returning to a slide

    Hello all!
    I have a weird problem with my Captivate presenation, I wonder if anyone could help me...
    I have Captivate training course that I've made (output to Flash to run on a SCORM-compliant system).  It has a table of contents which points to different "lesson" screens with videos.
    All videos are of type "slide video", they will be launched from the LMS running the course. 
    When I click on the slide to play the video the first time, it plays just fine. But if I go back to it later, it acts erratically (plays from middle of video, starts looping weirdly, etc).
    Has anyone else seen this?  Wanted to know what I could do to fix.
    Thanks!
    Daniel

    To better illustrate, I've created a simple project with a menu slide and a slide video slide - a really over-simplified version of what I'm trying to do, but still has the same problem. The project is online to download at:
    http://ge.tt/8TqfXEA?c
    If anyone has time, here is how to recreate the difficulty I'm experiencing:
    Run the project (either preview or export SWF, either way is fine)
    From the first slide (menu), click on the button, which will go to the next slide and play the video
    After the video finishes, click on the "Return to Menu" button
    Once back at the menu, click the button to play the next slide & video again. You'll notice that playback is erratic (starts later in the video, also begins weirdly looping).
    Please let me know how I can rectify - it's a really big problem. If I'm doing something stupid, please let me know (although I don't think I am - it's a really minimal project setup).
    Thanks again for any help anyone can provide!!!

  • Editing Slide Video Timing in CP5

    I'm experimenting with editing the timing for slide video in CP5.  I have the video on one slide and now I want to distribute it over other slides but not equally like it does when asked when you first bring a video in.  I want to use the edit video timing from the Properties Inspector.  When I open the video timing and then try to slide the window on the screen it disappears and CP5 freezes.  Anyone else experience this issue?

  • Replay slide button not working with slide videos HTML 5

    My course built in Captivate 7 contains synchronized  slide videos, imported  FLVs, progressive download. They are placed on the timeline at 0.5, and end 0.5 second from the end of the slide.
    Each slide has a replay slide button with advanced action assigned to it, Expression>cpCmndGotoSlide = cpInforCurrentSlide - 1, Continue. This works fine in SWF output (IE 9), and it allows the user to restart the slide, if the video doesn't load properly the first time, without having to relaunch the course.
    However, once I publish to HTML5 and view the course in Safari for iPad iOS 7.0.4, the slide returns to the beginning, but the slide displays  "loading",  the video never loads, and I'm unable to navigate away from the slide by using the playbar, and so I'm forced to close the browser tab and relaunch the course.
    I've created a new project and tested using different video formats (f4v, and mp4), and advanced actions such as Jump to slide, but have not been able to resolve the issue.
    Is this a known issue, or is there a workaround for this? Any help would be appreciated.

    I'm not sure if this is the best solution, but it works in both SWF and HTML5 output.
    Because the video begins at .5 on the timeline, I've added a second expression which once the slide jumps to the beginning, it advances to the frame that is 25 frames from the current frame. This causes the slide to replay not from the beginning of the slide (before the video loads), but from just under 1 second in so the video doesn't have to reload.
    As I said, this may not be the best solution, but at least the viewer can rewatch the video from the beginning without going back and forth between the slides hoping the video will replay correctly, and without closing the browser window and relaunching the course.

  • CP 6.0.1.240, Background Music, & Slide Video

    Hello All,
    I have a CPTX project which is a marketing type piece.  It introduces our new software features, has images, text background music and two slides in which I have inserted video.  These videos were imported as:
    MP4
    Multi-Slide Synchronized Video
    Video Type: Progressive Download
    Modify Slide Duration to Accomodate Video 
    There is a moment right before the video starts in which there is a spinning arrow that appears as the video is loading and during that same time, the background music skips.
    I would love to make the video play in a more seamless fashion and without user interaction.  I would love to get rid of both the pre-loading pause and skip in the music but will settle for just getting rid of the skip in the music as that is a more obtrusive interruption for the user.
    Any guidance would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Julie

    UPDATE:  When I finally published the video to YouTube, the hiccup or pause on the background audio seems to have resolved.  It was very evident in previewing the project and not noticeable once published to YouTube.  I have a new issue now as it relates to pausing but not of the audio of the video itself.  I will be posting a new thread for that.

  • Cp6.. Audio from FLV Slide Video keeps playing

    I have a project with several slides in a row that have flv videos with audio.  I used the multi-slide/sync video.. not event video to install the video on each slide.  Here's the problem:
    Say I'm watching /listening to the video on slide 1, when I use the playbar to advance to slide 2,  the audio thats attached to the video on slide 1 continues to play, and the video on slide 2 also starts.   So, I'm watching the video on slide 2 but hearing the audio from video 1 and video 2.  This does not occur when with mp4 videos.   I am using a standard playbar.  This does not happen in CP5.5 with the same project.  Any Ideas?    

    Hi,
    Thanks for your replies. 
    Nimmy, Yes, I did have transitions applied.  Changing to “No Transition” did resolve the issue.  This was one of a series of  Captivate 5.0 projects I’m updating.   I just confirmed that the second one in series had the same issue when updated in Captivate 6.  Again,  changing to “No Transitions” resolved the issue.  I also, opened both of these projects in Captivate 5.5 and republished – the transitions work perfectly in Captivate 5.5. 
    Vikram, this issue occurred on a Win 7 PC,  the videos are not split across separate slides, as reported above, I can duplicate the issue across several projects now.   I did try different FLV.  I was incorrect in my original post about MP4’s not having the same issue.   The project with the MP4 videos did not use transitions.  When I applied a transition,  the same issue occurred.
    This is one of several Captivate 6 issues that’s causing me to reconsider using it.    It has several new features I’d like to use but its eating up a ton of time, none of which is billable.    I’d suggest that if you can… create/publish any new projects in Captivate 5.5 then open in Captivate 6.  If everything works as expected great.  Otherwise, you have a fallback position in Captivate 5.

    Not all Android versions or Android browsers support MP4.
    I suggest you take a look at this page to see which versions do or don't.

    If your Android version or browser doesn't support MP4, there's not a lot you can do other than upgrade.
