Ac 8 preview/publish project url

in order to use adobe edge inspect to test my project on other devices, i need to specify a path of something that will allow the project to be opened/published/previewed locally, on localhost.
so instead of this url:
file://localhost/private/var/folders/81/r9mw8fhs32vbd1jkpctkryfr0000gs/T/Cleanup%20At%20St artup/CP18177-773516636Session/CPTrustFolder18177-773513142/CaptivatePreviewLoader18177499 598327/Captivate.htm
or
file:///private/var/folders/81/r9mw8fhs32vbd1jkpctkryfr0000gs/T/Cleanup%20At%20Startup/CP1 8177-773516636Session/CPTrustFolder18177-773513142/HTML5Temp18177916402599Pre/index.html
i need stuff on my localhost, to be viewed on a browser in my mobile phone, over edge inspect. and i am using mac.
please, i would like for someone to explain how to make projects open in localhost:some port/whatever instead of this sausages of urls.
thank you for your time.

thank you for reply!
i need a certain content to be shown or hidden on some slides, depending on a user.
i was researching through advanced options and variables, thats fine. is there a way to differentiate users without making choices like clicking on a button for female and button for male for example on a welcome screen? when the user is recognized in someway(no buttons, no choices), content would need to be somewhere hidden or shown as the lessons moves forward(depending on a "choosed user"). does that makes sense? i am not sure if i am explaining it right
thank you so mush for taking time to read this and hoping you will answer!

How to publish project to get url?

how to publish project to get url?

Hi
If you publish your Captivate project to Adobe Connect, then you will get a URL which you can provide to your users. Users need to open the URL to play the project.
If you publish your Captivate project which is SCORM compliant, then you need to upload this project to any LMS, you will get a URL which you need to provide to your users, users will open on the URL and project will start playing.
Thanks and Regards

Echo in audo in Preview or Published project only.

I'm using Captivate 2. I've recorded audio on a bunch of
slides for a training presentation. When I listen to the adio from
inside Captivate it's fine, but when I preview the project or
publish it there is an echo. Any ideas on how to fix this?

I guess the slide must have been corrupted. We deleted the
slide, recreated it, used the same audio and now it's fine.
Strange. *srug*

Audio Recording: Different Volume in Slide Preview vs Published Project. Thoughts?

I use Captivate 6 and use a external NADY USB microphone to record my narration.
I record audio for each slide separately using Captivate's "Record Audio to Slide" function.
When I preview the slide in Captivate, the sound level is fine. Meaning I can hear the audio when the volume on my speakers are at the halfway point.
But when I publish the video, and watch it on my computer, or on YouTube, I have to put the volume all the way up in order to hear the narration.
Any thougths on what I may be doing wrong?
Is my system too old or not powerful enough to support publishing audio/video?
I understand that I may have to play with the sound levels to get the right sound to begin with. However, I don't understand why audio preview (both in slide preview and in "edit audio" player) is at one volume level, and publish is another volume level.
Captivate Settings:
My audio settings are set to Near CD Bitrate (96k)
I calibrate the microphone each time I use Captivate.
I publish to MP4 Video using the YouTube XGA present
All files reside on my C: drive. I do not use the network to store, run or backup files.
My system is:
Windows 7
Processor: Intel Core 2 CPU 4300 @ 180GHz
4 GB Ram
64 Bit OS
Sound: SoundMAX integrated Digital HD Audio
Microphone: NADY USB Microphone
Drivers for Microphone and Sound card are up to date

Hi Vikas.
I tested recording audio with one slide. The published version did not appear softer when recording just one slide.
I then created a new project.
I got the same softer audio when publishing.
I also had 4 slides which cut of the first second of audio. (I made sure to move the audio about .25 seconds from the beginning of each slide, so there was blank space before and after the audio.)
One slide didnt publish the audio at all.
This project was smaller than my first.
This project consists of 23 slides. most with audio.
This time, I did all recoring via: Automatic demo,( no panning).
I did not use the "video demo" function.
What can be done to publish projects with audio successfully in Captivate 6.0.1.240?

Twitter Widget not appearing in preview or published project in Moodle

Hello,
I am running Adobe Captivate 6 on a Mac. i have MAMP installed and followed the Twitter Widget installation guide here:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/captivate/cp/using/WSedb8e841cbc0b796-1c6e5ece129f9bd28c5-8000 .html
When I preview my project in captivate or in web browser the widget does not show, neither does it when I publish the project to my local "test" moodle.
The widget "icon" appears in the edit window.
I think utilizing this tool in an elearning environment is an awesome concept and have been wracking my brain to figure it out.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Josh

Hi there
WOW! I downloaded and looked at your file. After opening, I simply attempted to preview. It seemed to lock up my PC for a really long time as it processed the file. I left it alone and after the preview finally opened, I saw what you did. So I canceled. Then began to inspect the project.
Overall size is 720x540. Respectable.
79 slides. Within limits.
Hmmm, no objects on slides 1-11?
Question slides for 12, 13, 14
Then I look at slide 1 and about fall over! The timeline shows that this slide is timed for 3,600 seconds! That's an hour!
I look further and see that ALL slides are timed for 3,600 seconds!
I have no clue how that happened, but you probably simply need to adjust the timing to something far more reasonable on each slide. Personally, I've never had a need to time a slide for longer than maybe, MAYBE ten seconds.
Hopefully this helps... Rick

Linking PDF files to a published project.

I've scoured over forums for a couple days now looking for an answer to this. I have CS5, and I'm extremely new to this program. Here's what I have going on:
I'm creating a series of courses. The first intro/welcome course, has a menu. I want each of those menu items to pull up another published project. I publish my courses as PDF. I've read that when you set a button to pull up another file/url, your flash settings my prevent this. I've gone through the steps to fix that, but that doesn't seem to be a problem. I think I'm missing a more simple step. When I publish, I receive a message that lists the files that I have "linked" and states that they may need to be exported and placed into the published folder. Now, I'm not sure how to export them, but I have copied the relevant files into the final project folder to no avail. I've also read that if you are operating on a network, that this may pose problems, but I'm not on a network. Am I missing a really basic step to linking the files before publishing? Thanks so much for any assistance.

Thanks, I had read the "relative link" response in other forums but just couldn't get it to work. After playing with it for a while, I just got a little bit closer to the desired result. On the drop down menu next where you enter the file name, I chose "new" instead of "current" and checked "continue playing project". When I preview the project, it works great. But, when I publish, the link does not work anymore. Could anyone provide some detail to what each of those selections do in the drop down menu? They might be the key.

Is there a way to play an mp4 file at the beginning of a published project only when the project is accessed from a specific site?

Is there a way to play an mp4 file at the beginning of a published project only when the project is accessed from a specific site?
A little background info. I use Captivate 7 and currently have over 100 projects that I maintain on a quarterly basis. I publish using the SWF format and upload the swf/htm files to a server where they are then accessed from a few locations (within our online documentation, in our software product, on two different websites). Many of the projects are linked so some will be viewed as a series and others viewed as a standalone video. Each video uses the same template and includes an intro and end slide. Now my organization wants to implement a new intro to all videos (those I publish and those from several groups across the organization). My current intros provide overview material for the specific video so the new intro, which is an animation with audio in mp4 format, would need to be placed at the start of each project. The issue is, the intro adds 9 seconds to every video and in many cases doesn’t add any value (say, if a user accesses the video from within our product or views the videos as a series). I’ve talked it over with my boss and we want to try to add the intro only to videos accessed from site X, not any other location. So now to my question. Is there a way to play an external mp4 file (intro) only when the published project is accessed from a specific site, therefore eliminating the need to update each project? Maybe there's a way to add a parameter or variable to the URL or the html code?
Thanks in advance for your suggestions. Please let me know if you need additional information.

AimeeLove,
I have a solution for you. You may have to modify the code a little bit based on how long the timeline animation is for your clock. I based mine on 3 seconds to complete a minute hand sweep around the clock.
Milliseconds for each point on the clock:
12 = 0
1 = 250
2 = 500
3 = 750
4 = 1000
5 = 1250
6 = 1500
7 = 1750
8 = 2000
9 = 2250
10 = 2500
11 = 2750
In the mouseover section for 12 o' clock, put this code...
myVar = setInterval(function(){
     var pos = sym.getPosition();
     if (pos > 0 && pos < 50){
          sym.stop(0);
          clearInterval(myVar);
},10);
When you point to the time, the setInterval method loops every 100th of a second and checks the current position of the timeline. When the timeline reaches the range between 0 and 50 milliseconds (almost impossible to hit 1 specific point), the timeline will stop at 0. Also, the clearInterval will be fired to stop the loop.
In the mouseout section, put this...
sym.play();
clearInterval(myVar);
It start the clock again, and it also clears the loop in case you mouseout before you reach the range.
Make sure that myVar is a global variable so you can clear it from the mouseout section.
Repeat this for each point on the clock. To avoid potential conflicts, you may want to use my12, my1, my2, etc. instead of myVar. I put the milliseconds at the top that you would use as the beginning of the range. 50 milliseconds should be enough to catch it. So, for 5 o' clock, you would make your range between 1250 and 1300.
Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks!

Publishing project in HTML5 - video's don't work

Hello,
In my e-learning project I have implemented several video's as Event Video on a slide. These video's work perfectly as I preview my project.
But when I publish my project the video's don't seem to load. Some video's show nothing (black screen), others show less than 1 second. The video's were implemented as .MP4-files and the Encoder launched when publishing.
How can I solve this problem ?
Plz respond quickly, this problem is urgent !

Web Object not visible in published project

I'd like to use the new web object interaction widget in Captivate 7 to embed a website into a project. Everything works fine as long as I only preview the project in my web browser. But when I publish it and go to the slide where the web object is supposed to be, there's only a blank space. Why?
I've published the project in SWF-Format with eLearning-output set to "AdobeConnect". I tried to switch the option "Scalable HTML content" on and off as I heared that some people are having problems using this in connection with widgets, but no matter whether it's turned on or of, the web object doesn't show up. There must be something very
trivial that I have overlooked since I'm using the web object in the standard way it is meant to be used.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Andreas

Thanks for your advice, but it still doesn't work. I have created a new project for my tests with only the web object in it to make sure no other objects etc. are influencing the output. I published the project and tried to run it on different browsers/operating systems and directly from my hard drive vs. Adobe Connect. The results:
Using my Mac and opening the project with the HTM.-file from my hard drive after I have added the published files folder to the trusted locations for Flash (without this setting, it doesn't work), the web object only appears in Safari, but not in Chrome and Firefox. Using AdobeConnect, it's the same: only Safari.
Using a Windows laptop (again opening the project with the HTM.-file from my hard drive after I have added the published files folder to the trusted locations for Flash), it works with Internet Explorer and Firefox, but not with Chrome. Using AdobeConnect, no browser works. I only get this message:
I can't use the web object when it only loads under very special circumstances. Moreover, I found out, that checking the "Scale HTML content" checkbox in the publish window results in a totally misplaced web widget in those browsers that support the web object. It then looks like this:
I use this option regularly, so this is really a problem for me.
I hope you can tell, what I can do to get the web object running. I simply can't believe that this is the standard behaviour and that everybody else is experiencing the same problems. There must be something I can do to get it running.
I hope you can help.
Best Regards

Inserted FLV files not playing in a published project.

The issue: Inserted FLV files display (play) when previewing a project but not in a published project.
My setup: Windows XP and Captivate 5
Questions:
   1) When in Filmstrip view only the movie playback bars show, not an image of the actual movie, is this correct?
   2) When I preview a project for the first time, the FLV files display (play) in Preview mode, HOWEVER, any time I preview the project after that, the movies do not play.
   3) When I publish a project, the inserted FLV files do not display (play), they only show the movie playback bars.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Oh yeah, all the files are in the same directory.

Audio missing in published projects

I am using Captivate 4 on a Windows XP machine. Audio was working fine in Captivate and in all published projects until several days ago. Now it has quit working in published projects (preview in browser and published projects) although it still works to preview slides within Captivate. I have read everything I can find on the forums on these issues and have tried the following suggestions:
1. Removing the Captivate folder from my Documents and Settings directory so that the default audio settings were restored.
2. Downloading the audio patch update through Help>updates
3. Installing the NSAudio.dll patch file
None of these things has made any difference. Desperately looking for a solution now... Anyone have any ideas what else I should try?
Thanks very much in advance,
Whitney

LOL, glad you got it sorted!
I suppose it could have really been anything. Perhaps you just needed to reboot. Perhaps it was related to critters. I'd personally be surprised if that were it.
My personal vote goes for either phase of the moon or sunspots...
Cheers... Rick

I can't preview my project

Greetings. When i try to preview my project in Adobe Captivate 8 (a browser open and display it) my browser opens, but i can't see the project. That loading circle never ends. It's strange because just a few days ago i could preview it normally. Also, the preview works normally with other projects. What should i do?

Which Preview in Browser do you use: F11 (HTML5) or F12 (SWF)? As long as the project is not published you cannot view it in another way. Both preview options will create a temporary published file.

Preview/Publish Not Working in Win 7
Hello and welcome to the forum,
About which version of Captivate you are talking? Did you run Captivate as
administrator? If you are still using Captivate 4 there are issues with
Win7 64-bit, and several threads in this forum. But first tell which
version you are using.

Captivate 4 Possible to remove borders/padding around published project?

Greetings,
I am working with Captivate 4 and publishing to a SCORM 1.2 compliant LMS. I would like to publish a project without having the borders/padding surrounding the project files. Is this possible? If so, where would I look to find instructions to do this?
When published in our LMS, the LMS generates a window of a fixed sixe. This is set in the LMS itself and can be changed in the LMS. The goal being to remove browser controls and scroll bars from the user’s point of view when they launch a lesson showing only the lesson.
In previous versions of Captivate (2 and 3) I was able modify the SCORM.htm file in such a way that I could remove any padding around published project files. The SCORM.htm file used a table to center the Captivate SWF files in the users screen. I could edit this file and use absolute positioning to eliminate (the table tags) “dead space” around a project swf file.
Doing this in Captivate 4 (editing Custom.htm and Default.htm) does not seem to have the same effect. (In fact it seems to have no affect (good or bad) at all.
Has anyone had any success in doing this?
Also, has anyone used the new Captivate 5 yet? Does it have the same presentation limitations as Captivate 4?
Thank you,
TPK

TPK,
This worked perfect. The only problem that I have is that it still leaves a small ribbon of white at the top and the bottom of the window. Any idea how to remove that?

Help - Captivate 4 preview/publish problem....

HI
I am having trouble with a project that I am working on in Captivate 4. The problem occurrs when I attempt to preview my project, all I get is a black screen, I have attempted to preview from other points in the project but still get this black screen.
I also published the project and the problem is still there, albeit, no black screen this time just a blank screen - when I right click it says movie not loaded.
I have compared the project settings with other projects that do open up and work fine and cannot find any differences! Most irritating!
Does anyone have any possible solutions at all?? Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Alex
Attached screen shot of issue:

I did a test project of 3 slides - created a template and then added some info - I copied and pasted objects/text etc from the existing project that I am having problems with. Interestingly I dont get the black screen when I preview/publish but I do get some interference on the slide from a jpeg used on Slide 1. For info I've screen shot slide 2 before and after preview to show issue. It feels like I am going to have remove captivate and re-installbut really dont want to have to do that!
Anyone come across this before?
Thanks in advance,
Alex
