Can't embed Camtasia video

I have Robohelp 9 and Camtasia Studio 8. I created a short (1 min) video with sound and want to add it to my Robohelp Webhelp project. A click on a link in the topic should open up a separate page and play the video
 . It doesn't work. 
What I have already tried:
I tried inserting it as if it were done in Captivate, but of course that didn't work.
I tried Rick's (Captiv8r) suggestion to someone, creating replicating the Camtasia folders and their contents and also copying the iframe code from the Camtasia HTML page into the topic page. That didn't work.
I'm still new at Robohelp and inherited a project started by someone else. She was able to insert a Captivate video with no problems, of course.
Questions:
Can someone give me a good way to do this, or perhaps tell me what I'm missing?
Or, if that can't work, is there a way I can convert my Camtasia video to Captivate and import it somehow?
Thanks. This is making me crazier than I already am and my deadline is upon me.

Sorry Buck. I should have taken a step back there. If you open the Project Manager pod the baggage files are listed there. Depending on how your project is setup though it may not be obvious they are there. I talked about a baggage file "folder" because I am a bit long in the tooth and remember the days when that was exactly what it was. It was a physical folder that only allowed baggage files. These days RoboHelp allows you to display the contents of your project in much the same way as any Windows Explorer folder. That is it displays topic files, style sheets, images, baggage files, etc. all in the same folder.
In the Project Manager pod toolbar there is a Toggle Project Manager View button (see below). Clicking this changes the pod's view between a list of folders for topics, style sheets, images, baggage files, etc. and a flat list with file types identified by an icon. If you display the files in a list of folders you'll see a Baggage Files folder. If you display your files in a flat format, baggage files are identified by a suitcase icon (see below).
To add a baggage file, right click on either the Baggage File folder (if it is displayed) or on any file if you are displaying the flat structure. Use the New > Baggage File menu item to navigate to the Camtasia file. Once you save the project, the baggage file will be displayed in the Project Manager pod. Compile your output and let us know if this works.

  • How can I embed a video with absolute path into a PDF

    I'm having some difficulties in embedding a video into a pdf; I followed the instructions to embed it properly, but the path points to my personal computer , so that the video will be available only on the computer I used to embed the document.
    Any suggestion? Can I modify the path directly? The PDF is supposed to be linked to another interactive PDF and to work both online and offline.
    Thanks!

    Thanks for the reply. I tested the file on other computers, though, and it doesn't open the video on any computer but mine (mine: the one I used to embed the video).
    Am I doing something wrong? I'm using Acrobat X and the procedure I'm following is: Multimedia/Add Video/Choose file
    I searched for manuals online and I saw that some of them were checking the box "embed file", but I don't have that choice..
    Maybe I'm supposed to use another version of acrobat?

  • Can you embed a video player with a tracklist with in the menu?

    I'm constructing a dvd but I would like to have all the videos playing in a smaller video player with audio on the main menu page. I'd like to have a track list next to the video player within the menu so the person viewing can quickly scroll through all the videos.
    It's a bit hard to explain so I drew a diagram of what I'd like to do:
    http://img90.imageshack.us/img90/1733/test2td.jpg
    Thanks for all your help!

    Welcome to the discussions!
    As you have found out, you won't be able to do this the way I think you are imagining is possible... DVDs just don't work the way that Flash or web pages do. There are significant limitations to prevent this from happening in a smooth manner, and as Eric intimated, you'll need to build a whole shedload of menus to even simulate the effect... and as you go through your track list and jump to each 'sub menu' you'll have to start each video clip from the beginning on each menu.
    If you really wanted to you could have a whole series of duplicated sub menus that each have different clips from the same track and then use a set of scripts to select one at random so that the viewer doesn't repeatedly see the same start of a clip as they land on the same entry in your track list. Instead they'll see a randomly selected alternative from the same track.
    But to even want to do this you've got to be certifiable...
    Let alone the fact that each menu is a separate entity on your disc and there is no way you'll move smoothly between them as if it is one nice slick Flash movie - it'll have pauses and appear to stutter at each change.
    What people tend to do instead is have a button for each of the tracks and put a video clip inside the button so the viewer can see all of the clip footage on one menu screen. A little 'old fashioned' in style, but massively more practical to achieve!

  • Can you embed icloud videos into a blog?

    I want to upload video to share via a blog. I know it can be done with youtube, but does anyone know if videos on i-cloud can be embedded in a similar way (e.g. with a URL?)

    Considering iCloud is password protected, probably not. I'd stick with youtube or vimeo or some other sort of sharing program. If for no other reason than to protect your iCloud from unintended access.

  • Can i embed video in a customised storefront?

    Hi,
    We have Adobe DPS enterprise license and as you know are able to produce HTML storefronts. Is there any size limit and can we embed a video if we want? I know we can stream a video but we would rather have it embeded so it doesnt require internet connection.
    Here is the link to the existing App that uses streaming video - http://itunes.apple.com/au/app/fs-connect/id507335397?mt=8

  • How can I Embed Video

    I'm trying to create an application that allows a user to
    combine several types of media files into one swf file that can
    then be passed around and viewed elsewhere. How can I embed a video
    into the swf file? It won't work if you just use the Embed keyword.
    Any ideas?

    To insert a video in a Pages document it's really simple.
    You open *_Pages User Guide_* and you use the Search tool to find the word "video".
    As I'm not a bad guy, I will add that it's described page 24 (in the English version)
    This said, I'm not sure that you will be able to play the video in an exported PDF.
    In fact, I'm quite sure that you can't.
    I don't have an available video file to make tests.

  • Embed a video in Muse?

    Can I embed a video in Muse, and I can upload to ftp to the Internet?

    Hello Mogens, The answer to the first part of your question is yes you can embed a video in a muse site. The code you isert as html which comes under the Object heading in the Menu. The video file or files must go in the Assets folder, File/ add files for upload. In your code you have to have your source as Assets. I have not got the hang of this forum business yet but will send my code under here in another answer. Mine was html 5 with no sound just a little animation but the code may be helpful to you. I am completely new to this game this is my first site but I have found Muse very good and the staff guys here a very helpful. I have not got as far as uploading to my server yet so I am afraid you will have to wait for someone else to answer that one. Hope this is helpful to you.

  • Importing Camtasia videos?

    I have never worked with Camtasia, though will need to for a project. Has anyone imported video from Camtasia into FCP?
    1. Anyone know if I can import a Camtasia video at 720 into a 720 sequence in FCP?
    2. Anyone know if the video can be exported from Camtasia without compression?
    Thanks.

    for the Mac version; in Camtasia go to Share>advanced Export and select a codec suitable for your sequence in FCP
    Camtasia for Windows is a completely different procedure

    Can someone please give me a step-by-step guide on how to embed a video in my Indesign document? I've got CS4 and I've tried to follow Adobe's instructions. Even Creative Suite 4 for Dummies. But I can't get it to work. And yes, I understand the video will only play when exported as a pdf -- not in the indesign document. Help! Donna

    Please repost in the InDesign forum along with full details including what the problem is.

  • What sort of video can i embed in muse?

    i have youtube videos embedded in my site no problem. i tried to embed a funny or die video, but it wouldn't work. am i limited to using youtube videos? are there other sites i can/cannot embed video from?

    You should be able to use any embed code, since the embed code is designed to be portable. I tried embedding a video from Funny or Die and had no issues. Is it possible you had inserted another script in your page that was causing a conflict? Do you have the same problem with any video from Funny or Die or just the one?
    Are you using the embed code from this section of Funny or Die:
    And just to be sure, does the video play when you switch to Preview mode, Preview the page in the browser, or when you publish?
    Best regards,
    Corey

  • How can I embed a self hosted video into Adobe Muse?

    How can I embed a self hosted video into Adobe Muse? I successfully use a Wordpress plugin to post self hosted videos to a Wordpress blog, however I would like to link the same video to a web site built in Muse. I understand that Muse looks for an embed code, however on self hosted video does anyone have any experiences on how that embed code can be obtained?

    There's quite a lot of discussion on this forum about embedding videos.
    So you can use HTML5 video tag to embed self hosted videos that you can insert in Muse through Object -> Insert HTML option. Refer to the following article - http://www.w3schools.com/html/html5_video.asp.
    And here's how it would look - http://www.w3schools.com/html/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml5_video_all.
