Audio wont export to Flash 8/ Wont publish in Captivate

Hello,
I am trying to export my captivate project to Flash 8 with
audio backgrounds and clips for narration. For some reason, the
audio is not importing. Can somebody PLEASE help?
The reason I am exporting to Flash 8 is that Captivate hangs
when I'm trying to publish. There is a lot of full motion in this
CP file. I thought it was just being slow, so I let it sit
overnight and it was still not published..Any ideas? I would much
prefer to publish this in Captivate then Flash..

It seems I found the solution. It's easy, but thanks for
replying without answering teh original posters questions... sorry
if I seem frustrated, but so far every single time I posted a
question about Adobe products, most of the time after a day or two
of trying to find the answer myself, and although even after days I
still thought (think) it was a very legitimate question - like how
do I find out if an MC is running, i.e. if the _current_frame+1 is
going to be played or not (answer: not possible, unless I overwrite
the movieclip class with one where all methods that could possibly
change the play status are overwritten to set a public class
variable like "is_playing" true or false) - I get no response.
The answer this time is - I say this to the original poster -
to go to the advanced audio dialog, export all audio, and then
export to flash works, it automatically includes the audio! It was
mentioned by someone above to use this method, but in a wrong
context - there also was the advice to then include the audio
manually in the Flash project. This is strange advice, since a) it
works automatically, and b) it SHOULD work automatically, so this
workaround from someone posting with an Adobe logo is not an answer
I would be satisfied with. I pay Adobe for working products, I can
come up with workarounds myself!
I do know how hard it is to answer user questions in such a
busy forum (I once worked at one of the major Linux companies for 5
years and occasionally voluntarily stepped into discussions on the
mailinglists), I'm just a little frustrated about never being taken
seriously... :-)

Audio Sounds Fine in Flash - Glitchy On Publish

I have AIFF streaming audio in Flash CS4 (does it in CS5 too) and it sounds fine in Flash, but when I publish it I get a glitch/noise sound in a few places. It does this no matter what audio format I export, including RAW. ???
The source doesn't have the glitch sound, it doesn't have it in Flash itself, but it does when I publish it.
Anyone know what's up with this?
Thank you!

If I change it from streaming to event, the sound publishes fine. ??
I opened the audio file in Soundtrack Pro and exported it as WAVE and AIFF and both had the same problem when exported out of Flash.

AS3 wont publish

Hi, I am trying to modify a FLA file, which is already done. Problem I am haveing is when I publish the FLA file,into a SWF, the AS3 file wont publish . Am a newbie with this so not sure what I am doing wrong, Without the AS3 file, the movie just loops.

It's likely that there's a problem with yoru AS3 file that's preventing it from compiling.
Check for compiler errors when you attempt to publish to see if that's the problem. Normally, if there are compiler errors they will pop up in the same area of the work space where your time line is. If you con't see a Compiler Errors window there you can make it visible by going to the Window Menu and making sure "Compiler Errors" is checked. If it's generating any errors post them here if you need help deciphering them.
If it's not generating any errors it's possible that your FLA does not know to use the AS3 class. Make sure your FLA is using the class somehow so that it knows it needs to compile it.

Wont publish

I am new to Iweb. I have made a site and bought an .mac.account. But the page wont publish. I have tried several times. any ideas?

Please post here again with more details of the problem, e.g. any error message you see during the publishing process.
Or does the publishing process appear to complete normally, but your site doesn't appear when you visit it via a browser? ...If so, what do you see?

I can´t publish or export to flash

Hello, I have installed Captivate 6.0.1 in a Mac.
When I finished, I try to publish and a blank square was in the screen in time the publish menu.
I try upgrade Captivate, reinstalled and the problem is continuous.
When I try to export to Flash CS6 or CS5, generate an error message.
Thanks in advanced.

Shekhar
I found and other problem, when you Can publish (a friend have a PC with
the program), I create a SCORM. This file is mow in a Moodle course. When
you open the SCORM all look well, but if you open and URL and return to the
SCORM, the buttons go away.
You need recalled the page in web navigator to see again.
What is *wrong?

Help me publish/export CS3 Flash file as Quicktime Video, no controller

I am working on a simple timeline animation and would like to publish/export my flash file as a quicktime file with out the default controller. I can export it no problem with the controller. Also I tried publishing it as a QuickTime with Flash Track (.mov) and I get this error message. "QuickTime does not support Adobe Flash track beyond Flash version 5. You can however, export a QuickTime move with Flash rendered as video by selecting File > Export > Export Movie.
Also, does anyone know if transparencies are ok if publishing as a QuickTime movie?

QuickTime 7.3.1, and higher, no longer support Flash (.swf) in playback. Previous versions did allow .swf format as a muxed "track" if "Published" from Flash applications as version 5, or lower.
To turn off the controller (none) use the Movie Properties / Presentation tab.
QuickTime does allow levels of transparency and also "alpha channels" in most image formats that support them (.png).

ive followed the instructions on how to hook my pc to my tv to stream video and sound and the vidio is vissible but the audio wont play. vollume is up and the imput out put is corectly in place. why cant i hear audio?

Hi precious5959,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I am happy to help you with your audio problem, but it would be helpful to have the product number and OS version. Please read the following documents if you need help in finding that.
How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?
Is the Windows Version on My Computer 32-bit or 64-bit?
What sort of connection are you using between your computer and tv? For some connection types, audio is not included and requires an additional audio cable.
Some general information that may be helpful for you:
Connecting a Monitor, Projector or TV (Windows 8)
Overview of HDMI and DVI Connections for PCs
In the following link, please pay particular attention to the section on Troubleshooting TV setup as a second monitor.
Using Two or More Monitors with One Computer (Windows 8)
Other things that could help would be to insure that you have updated all the video and audio related drivers for your notebook. The drivers can normally be found from the product page for your notebook, or from the original chipset manufacturer. I would link that page to this, but I need the exact product/model number to get the right page for you.
Another thing that could help with drivers is the: HP Support Assistant as it can automate the driver updates for you.
Also here are some links to videos on youtube that could be helpful to you. They cover a range of audio related issues, and could be very informative.

Exporting to flash 8 makes the slides streched

Hi,
I am not a flash expert, but i need to fix some things in
actionscript before publishing the stuff online. so i cant directly
use the captivate created flash files. If i export the material to
flash the slides are streched and off center ( i see the top left
corner. )
Can anyone help me explain what happened and how i can fix
it?
Thanks,
Wouter

OK, I'm about at my wits end with this issue and it's only getting worse! Yesterday I did unistalls and reinstalls of both Flash and Captivate and made sure that I the proper Captivate A.S. folders copied to the Flash Classes folder...still no dice.
I then went to IT and asked for a loaner laptop to install both on to see if it might be my PC that's the problem...installed both on the laptop and export the Captivate File to Flash and published it...the audio worked! I was pumped. So went back to my PC and tried again and it didn't work. I then brought the new .FLA over from the laptop and it plays with audio fine on my PC. However the exact same Captivate project exported to Flash on my PC doesn't play the audio. I have a TON of captivate .SWFs that I need to add actions to, so if anyone can offer (even possible) solutions, I'd be grateful! Thanks!

Exporting to Flash without embedding music files

I had to create a music player for a website, and really didn't want to make a flash player from scratch again. So I had an epiphany and opened Keynote.
I created a slideshow: the first page was a "Click on song to play" and every page after the first was a song that auto played in the background with a next, previous and home hyperlink on each. Ten minutes later I could export to Flash, open it in Safari, and had a perfectly functional flash music player; 10 points for Apple.
The only problem is that the export embeds the songs into the SWF file, making the file around 16mb. In my current setup for the website, it's not a terrible problem, but I was wondering how I would export the file to Flash (from Keynote still) so that the music loaded externally, and only when the song needed to be loaded.
I could buy a swf>fla converter and change the actionscript, but I figured some genius in the Discussions might have a trick up their sleeve.
Well, do ya?
PS: For those interested, here is the file: http://clay.bellmor.com/appledis/musicplayer
Remember, it's 16+ megs, so whip out your Activity window. I also built in a timed auto-tranisition to play the next song. Again, 10 points for Apple.

Exporting to Flash Question.

My client created individual Captivate demos. I would like to
import them into flash and place them on a custom background with
logo as well as build a flash menu to jump from Captivate section
to section.
I'm wondering if when exporting a file to flash then opening
up in the Flash environment how will Flash build/ display the
content on the timeline, how much can I edit it and will it publish
out of Flash and display fine? Is there anything from Captivate
that will get lost in this process such as audio or playback
quality, etc.... I would try this myself but I'm on a Mac, our PC
has the Captivate demo with no flash (I believe you need both
programs in order to have the export option available) and I don't
want to purchase flash for this computer if it won't do what I need
it to.
Hope someone can help,
Thanks,
Jason

Hello Jason,
Please find below the current Captivate 2 Export limitations:
508 compliance: At this time none of
the 508 compliance extensions export to Flash. If this is a
critical aspect of your project, you may want to consider other
options to address all of your accessibility requirements in Adobe
Captivate.
Interface skin: Skins are not
exported through the Flash export function. This means that if your
project uses the new Adobe Captivate 2 menu feature of skins, you
must manually recreate that functionality in the Flash
environment.
Navigation bar: Adobe Captivate
currently does not export the navigation bar used in the interface
skin. If you use this asset in your project, you must manually
create or add it to your Flash project.
Advanced compression: Advanced
compression occurs specifically as part of the Adobe Captivate
publish process.
Slide transitions: Transitions added
to slides are not exported to the Flash environment. If you prefer
to use transitions, you must rebuild the slide-level transitions in
the Flash development environment.
Real-time synchronization: Adobe
Captivate does not export items recorded using the "real-time"
option to the Flash environment. Although the objects exist, the
export process does not retain the timings.
You can learn more about exporting to Flash by reading the
excellent article by Scott Young -
Exporting
your Captivate project to Flash

Flash CS5.5[Publish Settings]: How to include custom Metadata tags in swf?

In Flash CS5, the 'Publish Settings' for the fla had an 'Export SWC' checkbox that took care of that.
The option is missing. Why was it removed and how can that be done in 5.5?

Thanks sinious, but, it doesn't work.
Let me elaborate on what I want to do:
I'm trying to create a swf in Flash CS5.5, that's using a flex library (swc) that relies on Metadata tags (anotations).
I need to use the metadata tags in my as3 code (in the fla), and They need to be compiled into the swf (by Flash CS5.5 compiler...).
Although, when I load that swf, the metadata tags aren't compiled into it (I'm using describeType to check if tags are available in the swf).
In flex, I would use the '-kepp-as3-metadata+=' compiler setting to do that, in Flash CS4 & CS5 I used the 'Export SWC' in the publish settings, but that's removed (WHY???).
Checking XMP Metadata didn't change that, the tags are still not included in the compiled swf.
Anyone?

Mac Projector Crashes When exported From Flash CS5.5

Something strange that i noticed, when i had exported a presentation for a Mac,
on a 64 bit windows 7 using flash cs5.5.
the applicaton gets the paths of a few swfs from an XML file
and loads them one after the other.. there is a small bit of interactivity.
.. tested this projecter on various versions of MAC, it crashes often,crashes earlier if i switch applications. what follows here is a part of a report that was generated on an OS X 10.7.3,
works fine if the projector is exported from flash cs5.
i need it to work when exported from flash cs5.5.. any suggestions on what i need to change in my application so that it works when exported from flash cs5.5?
Your help would be appreciated Thanks in Advance

Looks like it was a memory problem with the jvm.ini file.
Pumped it up to 256 and it works now.
Hope this helps anyone else in the future if they come across it.
Thanks.

Exporting to Flash using Quicktime pro

I'm trying to export a 43 min vid from FCP6 using quicktime conversion. I want to export to Flash. Its for web content, and its in widescreen.
Any help with size and converting to flash would help. I've never done web content before.
Thanks!!

First, some questions: 1) what's the purpose? 2) who's your intended audience? 3) has it got to be done quickly, as in a short deadline? 4) Why Flash? 5) Why 43 minutes (have you ever in your life watched a 43 minute streaming video on the internet on anything but the most powerful 'puter with the highest-speed, dedicated internet connection)? 6) Do you care that what people see you throw up on the internet ultimately reflects on how you yourself are perceived by those same people?
For what could be a quick disaster, or if this project is mainly for sh*ts and giggles, follow the advice given in the first reply, post it pronto and don't bother with the rest of THIS reply.
Or, if you're on a deadline, pay someone who TRULY knows what they're doing to do it for you -- and they might still balk (if they have any scruples) at a 43 minute web video unless you've got a really good reason to make folks wait for way longer than 43 minutes of stop-and-start Flash stuff.
Otherwise, if you're not in a hurry:
FIRST, procure a book on the subject, like Apple's "QuickTime for the Web" (available on line and at Borders, for sure).
THEN, with some reading under your belt, be prepared to start experimenting with combinations of smaller movie dimensions and FPS rates (generally, half of what the original is); then on to varying types of video compression (Sorenson or Sorenson3 have historically given some of the best results, with H.264, the newest and more difficult to configure giving the truest quality, but not discounting the various MPEG settings; and last, but certainly not least, playing with your audio compressions to see what you're willing to lose in order to (hopefully) gain an internet audience. Like it or not, it depends on YOUR vid's content and audio as to how to make it small enough to be seen in its best internet presence.
OR, You might try some of Compressor's export settings -- and be totally satisfied. It's all relative to the work you've created and how long you're willing to work at what you're willing to sacrifice to still pull off a good illusion of your original video at a fraction of its original size.
I wish it weren't so, but there's no quick and easy answer to your question if you're serious at all about the end result. You have to consider all the angles I've posed (and then some) to get good results that'll show YOU in your best light.

Exporting to Flash, missing library item?

I am using Flash 8 (also tried CS3, but flash 8 seems to
import Captivate much better) and Captivate 3.
I want to create a project following the steps outlined in
this adobe article.
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/captivate/articles/cpvideo_03.html
(this is the link to page 3 where the steps to exporting to flash
are outlined)
I am unable to because an item the author says should be in
the Flash library is missing. From the article:
quote:
1. Import the Macromedia Captivate project file using the
Import to Library option. Be sure to deselect the audio import
option (remember, the audio portion is in the FLV file) and any
other Macromedia Captivate feature that you did not use in your
demo.
2. Upon import, open up the Library panel and locate the
Macromedia Captivate content. It will have the same name as the
original Macromedia Captivate project file but with a CPT
extension.
3. Drag it to the Stage and name the instance captivate_mc.
If you omit this step, the resync code will not work.
But I am not seeing any "captivate content file".
Anyone have any thought/suggestions?

Well I guess captivate 3 must export slightly different than
Captivate 2. I had to basically manually create the movie clip the
article talks about. When you export from cap3 to flash it puts
everything on the scene 1 timeline. So I copied ALL the frames
& layers, created a new movie clip and put it all into that new
movie clip symbol. Just kind of a pain to have to do it manually,
but not a big deal.

Audio wont export to Flash 8/ Wont publish in Captivate
