Add video feedback to quiz question

There is a presentation demo on the Adobe site called 'Breeze
for Rapid-training' which has a question and when answered, plays a
video. I cannot seem to find any information to do this. how is it
done?
Thanks Michelle

Are you sure the feedback is on the same slide or are they
using branching to send you to a choice of slides with video on
them? I believe this is how you'd do it:
First, create a slide continaing you're video.
Then use the hide slide function in powerpoint so that people
won't be able to access the slide unless they go through the quiz
to get to it
Now craete a quiz question and use the branching feature to
go to that slide with the video
This is a very quick and dirty explanation, so please let me
know if you need more explanation or if you need more detail.
Best,
Jon

Video in a quiz question

Hello,
Is it possible to insert a video in a quiz question. For example, I would like to be able to show a video and when the video is complete, the user is quized. I want the user to be able to see the video next to (above, below, etc) the quiz qustions.
Thanks!

Absolutely! Which version of Cp are you using. If you are using Cp5 or 5.5, you can insert FLV or F4V into a question slide and manipulate its properties the same way you would in a regular slide.

Interactive objects and quiz questions

Hi everyone,
I know that you can't add interactive objects to quiz questions, so what is the best way to accomplish my need of placing a button that, when clicked, plays a short mp3 audio file to a quiz question?
Alternatively, if I am to replace my Captivate quiz questions with new custom slides, how can I replicate all of the multiple choice, etc question types? Are there widgets for these?
I appreciate the help! I was looking around for reference items speaking to this issue but couldn't find any.

Hello,
On default question slides like on other slides, you can attach an audio clip to an object (even an object that is invisible to the user like a rectangle without a stroke and an fill with alpha=0%). The clip will play when the rectangle gets visible, but... you cannot put a button on a question slide. The only button that is possible is the static button widget but it has not the possibility to show/hide an object. You can attach the clip to the Success/Failure captions, eventually show/hide the invisible object with events like entering a slide, or Success/Failure actions but those events (appearing of captions, executing actions) cannot be controlled by a button. If that is what you want, you need custom question slides. You didn't explain really at what moment you want to offer the audio, perhaps you do not need to give total control for playing by a button?
Several blog posts I created talk about creating custom question slides with or without the help of widgets. Here is one link that shows a list of the articles/posts with widgets:
Widgets and Custom Questions
Not all question types are possible: if you want drag&drop functionalities I recommend the Drag&Drop widgets of InfoSemantics. Have a look here:
http://www.infosemantics.com.au/dragdrop/whichwidget
Another problem is the reporting of custom question slides. I already published two posts about that subject on my blog as well.

Audio feedback on quiz buttons

Is there any way to add audio feedback to an automatically generated quiz button when it has been clicked e,g the submit button, undo button etc?
I have put audio feedback on smart shape buttons via advanced actions but an advanced action cannot be assigned to the above buttons.
Failing that is there a way to make a smart shape button into a submit button?
Many thanks

The embedded objects in quiz slides, those who have no separate timelines, are different from normal interactive objects. There is no real difference between normal buttons and shape buttons as you seem to tell at all, just between embedded buttons that have specific functionality and the normal buttons. There is no way to replace a quiz button by a shape button at this moment, but that wouldn't change the way they act.
If you want audio, you can attach it to the feedback captions (Success, Failure) or put them in actions that are triggered by the Submit button: the Success and Last Attempt actions. More details:

Responses showing over feedback in sequence question - Captivate 5

Hi all
I have an issue with the sequence question type. If you have feedback, the draggable responses show over the top. Please see grab.
Is this a bug? I can't find any mention of it. It only seems to do it with certain responses. Makes it completely unusable.
Suggestions?
Mitch

This tends to happen if you add answer options AFTER creating the question and adding the feedback captions. The last thing added ends up on the upper layers of the quiz question slide, but since you cannot see these layers in the timeline, as you can for other slides, you cannot reorder the layers by normal means.
The solution is to turn your feedback captions off and then on again so that they then end up on the higher layers again.
Go to Quiz Properties for this slide and deselect/select the Correct and Incomplete captions to put them above the answer options. Then set Failure level to NONE and back to whatever it was before to set the Failure caption above everything else. This will erase any text you had in the captions, so if you've invested quite a lot of time adding text to these feedback captions, it's a good idea to copy that text somewhere else first, so that you can just paste it back in after recycling them.

Quiz questions will not retain format when question is changed.

OK forum folks. I'm working on my first e-learning project and have ran into a problem with question formating. The instructions/help basically tell you to click here and click there. I can easily figure that out. The questions I seem to have are quite a bit deeper.
I have a predefined template which is company approved. I have created master slides in the question pool for both a 4 item match and a 5 item match (I have found if I add a line to the 4 matching line quiz the line spacing and formatting changes). The placeholder questions are essentially non-questions.
I duplicate the master slide in the question pool to maintain the original format (spacing, location, etc.).
I change the placeholder questions on the duplicated slide to the real question (slide is still in the slide pool)
The formatting (font, spacing, locations, etc.) change on the new (edited) questions and require reformatting.I have also tried copying the master question slide to the filmstrip and editing the copied slide questions in the filmstrip. I receive the same results.
Is there are way I can create masters in the current format so I can use the approved templates, edit the questions and not have to reformat the slide after the questions have been changed?
Also, is there a way to lock the formatting of the questions? If I want to add/delete a new question or line to the slide, it would be great to be able to not have to reformat the slide for the change.
I look forward to your answers.
Thank you.

I am trying to deal with the same issue. The master slides are more about background elements and navigation buttons, but they do not seem to allow for the addition of quiz elements.
I have come up with a workaround that I hope will work. What I am doing is creating a new project that becomes my quiz question layout library (Let's call this Project 2). In this project I add the various types of questions I will be using in my project (multiple choice with three choices, multiple choice with five, true/false, etc...). I get all the quiz elements in place for each type of question (the header, question, submit/clear buttons, review area, etc...).
These slides serve as my Master slides for my actual project (Project 1). I can copy and paste the appropriate layout from Project 2 to Project 1 and then change the questions themselves.
I am sure I will find out the downside of this soon enough...
There is no doubt the creation of masters for quiz questions needs work, actually it needs just to exist!

Lightbox using smartshape in Quiz question

Hi,
I'm using one question/quiz slide and would like to create a lightbox to display different comments depending on what choice the user selects.
In the comment lightbox, I hope to allow the user to click a X image to close the lightbox.
The exisiting message boxes do not give the client a look they desire. Are there any other suggestions on alternative message boxes that overlay over the the quiz question?
Please advise.
Thank you!
Susanne

You could use grouped objects that include Smart Shape buttons for the click to close the lightbox.
But you need to be aware that the ON Success or On Last Attempt events only fire in Quiz Questions AFTER the Submit button has been clicked and any feedback captions have appeared and been dismissed. If you want your lightbox captions to appear after the submit button is clicked, you'll need to turn off the other feedback captions.
As far as having a different lightbox appear depending on which answer the user chooses, that's really only available for Multi-Choice quiz questions, no others (and not even multiple answer questions). You need to use the Advanced Answer option event to trigger the appearance of the lightbox.

Unable to add video files to Library

Hello, good evening.
(I don't even know how to start...)
I'm having some problems while trying to add video files to iTunes' library. No matter if I try to drag it in, or use the File > Add file to Library option, it just doesn't show up on the Video category (or any other category either). However, it adds music files and downloads podcasts perfectly. Also, everything in the library syncs to the iPod without problems, including the videos that were already there prior to the iTunes 6 to 7 update.
The video is already a .mp4, converted with the Videora iPod Converter. I'm using iTunes 7.0.1 on Windows XP. If other detail is needed to answer my question, just ask.
I guess this is it...
PC Windows XP

Wierd. When you say it doesn't show up in the Video category, you mean "movies" category, right? Because there is no "video" category.
I don't think iTunes would mistake it for a music file, and it probably wouldn't show up in TV shows (and I'm sure you already tried that), but did you check under Podcasts?
It doesn't give you an error message when you go to import? Can you play the file within windows?

Add video clips to library

Most camera shoot video clips now including some DSLRs. So add video clips to library and view video clips. I not talking about adding a new module but I would like to add those Point and shoot AVI files to the library and be able to view them.

After nearly two years of frustration both with LR itself and with the commentary posted by LR developers I am compelled to voice a certain question/complaint. Please understand that I have followed the requests and responses in this forum and elsewhere very closely since LR's inception (and earlier). My mind is very open to the various ways that different people work and the limitations of both current technology and development time. I understand that LR is a baby and will grow more and more useful over time as newer versions are produced.
I fail to clearly understand the purpose of LR.
After years of Adobe developing fragmented programs they decided to unify them within the Creative Suite. As newer versions of the CS have been developed, the way the individual programs interact has become more streamline. Unnecessary programs have been set aside and newer ones have been adapted to fit within the CS. Most recently the Macromedia product line, which first was loosely part of the CS family and now seems fully integrated with PS, Ai, ID and the others.
LR was purposely developed not to fit into the CS. Myself and others may not have fully understood the reasons for it but we accepted that LR promised to think outside the box - to bring a differnt way of thinking that was not subject to legacy workhabits. But with Jeff continually putting down the need for video and many other requested functions I doubt the legitimacy of the LR vision. To not allow photo & video to operate seamlessly together, even with limited functionality, completely lacks any foresight. Obviously video will be incorporated eventually, if for no other reason than we, the consumers, demand it. But to try and deny it is to deny the industry, the future.
My case in point is not RED or the Canon 5DM2, rather it is two of the programs within the newest iteration of Adobes own suite, CS4. The way InDesign files can be opened in Flash and manipulated there to allow for seamless publishing to the web. A few years ago most print publishers (and print software developers) may have balked at the suggestion that Quark or ID needed to "work well" with a web developer. But since all media (visual, motion, sound, database and web programming, animation, etc. see http://mediastorm.com/ for a taste of the future) are united it is hardly a stretch to ask Video and Still photography to live side by side - especially if they are created from the same device!
What's next, a phone that allows you to check your email, take photos & videos and surf the web?!
Why can't LR play nicely with everyone else? Maybe we need to start over.

Move back and forward through Quiz questions...

Hello,
I need to be able to let individuals move back and forward through quiz questions after they have answered them without the need to re-answer the question.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how I could do this in Captivate 6.
Thanks,

Thanks for the reply!
I should have been a bit more specific and provided an example...
Question 1 and 2 are answered correctly and feedback box is shown each time - they then get stuck on question 3 so need to use the back button to go back through past the answered questions to the main information screens to find the answer and then need to use the forward navigation button to move back to the third question this will result in them moving through question 1 and 2 however we do not want them to answer these again.
The individual must answer every question correctly to pass the course.
Thanks,

Captivate 4 Arbitrarily Changing Quiz Question Values?

I've got a client who uses Captivate 4, and she's having a problem with quiz score values. She has 12 separate assessments, each with either 10, 15, or 25 questions, and she's very sure she has consistent question values in each so that each quiz adds up to 100 points.
Other users have opend the .cp movies and found the quizzes don't add up. Some vary as much as 10 points. When she opens the files, they're at 100 points. I opened one in Cap 5.5 and found that the value of two questions changed.
Any ideas on what's going on? I do remember that another client a few years ago was having scoring fits with Cap 3 along these same lines. I don't know if he ever found a solution.
Thanks.

Were any of these quiz questions originally created in an earlier version of Captivate and then upgraded?
Is this client using Report as SCORE instead of Report as PERCENTAGE in Quiz Settings?
If using SCORE, and you always need to have the questions add up to 100 for everything to work, I would suggest you try using Percentage instead. It's usually easier to work with.

Backwards Navigation When Reviewing Quiz Questions

I have discovered from some students that they can cheat on my quiz. They take the quiz, review their answers and make note of the correct answers, then either drag the navigation slider backwards or click the Back button to return to the beginning of the quiz. This resets their original answers and allows them to retake the quiz with the answers they took from their notes.
The quiz is set up to allow multiple attempts, but I assume they should be starting over with each attempt. My quiz questions are randomized from a test pool, so hopefully they do not see the same questions again and not in the same order. However, by cheating in this way, they can take the same questions in the same order.
Is there anyway to limit backwards movement when reviewing the quiz?
I have turned off backwards movement while they are taking the quiz, but this setting is turned off when they start reviewing the quiz.
I am using Captivate 5.

Thanks for the information. Yes I have set the quiz up to allow users to review their answers. Yes I assume they will take notes on the answers, but I have not enabled the Retake Quiz button. Once they get to the results page and choose to review their answers, I assumed (incorrectly) that their answers would be locked and they would not be able to change the answers or results for their attempt.
My instructions tell them to relaunch the training, go through it again, and then take the quiz again. With the questions and answers being randomized, I was hoping that their notes (question 1 answer is B - question 2 answer is C - etc.) would not be very helpful to them and they would put effort into taking notes from the training to help them on the test instead.
You said the following:
"If a user clicks the Review Quiz button after any attempt, they will be unable to perform a new attempt on that quiz until they relaunch the lesson again. Also, if the user jumps outside the Quiz Scope by navigating back to any slide before the first scored object or quiz question, they will be unable to reattempt the quiz until relaunch."
I have tested this out, launching the training from the LMS, and it is not correct. I can go through the quiz, review my results, drag the slider or click the back button to the beginning of the quiz, and take the quiz again.
I have disabled backwards movement during the quiz, but once you start reviewing a quiz, backwards movement is once again enabled via the slider or back button.
I can hide the playbar and navigation controls, but when you get to the review, the navigation controls remain hidden and you cannot advance through the questions to see the results. I thought of adding a separate Forward button on the quiz question slides to allow the user to go forward as they review the slides, but you cannot add buttons or clickboxes to question slides.
I could certainly turn off the review functionality, but I think it is valuable information to the student. I need to allow them to retake the quiz, as my boss has set a very high bar (100% passing score) on the quiz.
Does anyone have any other ideas?
By the way, after typing up this response, I started doing some playing around, and I figured out a fix. I turn off the navigation controls before the quiz and enable the Skip button on each question slide. With the navigation off, the user can answer the questions and click Submit. Then when reviewing the answers, they can navigate forward by clicking Skip. They can no longer navigate backwards through the quiz and training material.

How to add video files to library

I know it's a stupid question, but I've been trying to add videos (from my hard drive) to i-tunes so that they can be transferred to my (new) i-pod, and when I go to add files it lets me add music but not videos. Any hint?
Thanks!

This is most probably a corrupted file or the file was not properly converted to ipod video format. The same thing also happened to me before.

Add Video without Library Replacement??

I don't think this is possible, but it doesn't hurt to ask.
I have a large music and video collection on a G5 desktop that I use as my main iTunes collection. I sync my 5G iPod with that desktop. I also have a PowerBook G4 that I use for travel, that I keep a much smaller collection of tunes on just for syncing with a mini when I travel.
Here's my question. I'm on the road and would like to download last night's episode of "Lost" to watch on my 5g. Is there anyway to add the episode to the iPod without having to replace my entire library that is already on the iPod from my desktop?
Thanks

You can dissolve to a clip that's not on the primary storyline. You can also connect the clip and then overwrite it into the primary.
the add Video only feature is broken
How are you doing this? Insert will not wipe out what's in the timeline. Are you doing an overwrite from the browser? Don't. It overwrites, video and audio. The video and audio are a single track on the primary unless you detached the audio.

Trying to add video to my site, need help

So, I am trying to add video content to my website. I've converted small video clip to test to the .flv format and have a .swf flash video player. I'm trying to embed it into my site but its giving me trouble. Here is a copy of the code I am using
<embed src="http://www.myfileserver.com/folder/flvplayer.swf" width="320" height="240"
bgcolor="#FFFFFF" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"
flashvars="file=http://www.myfileserver.com/folder/video.flv&autostart=true" />
here is my question. I am confused to where my server is. I don't have my site content on an online server so does that mean, my computer is acting as my server?
On the embed src= "spot" do I just point to the place where I saved the .swf file on my computer? Same question goes for "file spot"at the bottom, the last line of code?
When I try and follow the directions and point to the files on my computer the video does not play. Hover over the 2nd video explanation to see my problem on my site to see the problem

When you started in Dreamweaver, you should have created a testing server. This testing server has the root folder defined on your computer:
You would put the flash movie into your media folder (or whatever folder you would designate for media such as this).
In Dreamweaver, on your insert panel, you should see a "insert media" button. Click the down arrow beside the button and choose the media you wish ot insert:
Choose FLV and it will give you the option to put in the URL (local testing server folder), a control button skin, and the size.
