Captivate 6 not rendering video when publishing

Hello, I am very-brand new to captivate - as in, I've been using Captivate for around 36 hours.. I was given this project on Friday and asked to have it finished by Monday. After about 14 hours of pulling hair I think I've finally got the training finished, but when I hit publish only the slides that do not contain video show up. The whole thing plays when I preview within the software, but as soon as I export it goes away.
I'm running windows 7, my poor laptop is around 5 years old, and I'm using Captivate 6.
I swear I'm not crying as I type this.

Hi ,
Welcome to Adobe Forums,
Could you please check the exact version of Adobe Captivate (Go to Help > About Adobe Captivate) ?
Go to Edit > Preferences > SWF Size and Quality and uncheck both the options which says Advanced project compression and Compress SWF file ,
Save the project after the changes and republish the project with a new name and save it to the desktop .
After publishing make sure that you check the output by viewing .htm file not the .swf.
Thanks
Himanshu

Drop shadow on slideshow not rendering right when published

The drop shadow looks fine when applied while in muse but when previewed or published it does not.
The problem started after the February update. This is how it looks when published. Please help!!!!!

The only way I can make it go away is to save the file as an illustrator ai file and use that for pdfs. This would be OK, but other suppliers need to use the file and want eps format
EPS is simply unsuitable when dealing with transparency (which is what your drop shadow is). So you need to work with AI for placing in InDesign. If other suppliers need EPS, then just send them that. Nothing should keep you from exporting another file format.

Export Quicktime movie is not rendering video track, just the audio track. However, everything works when using Quicktime Conversion menu options. What is wrong with my setting for Export Quicktime movie?

When you converted the original files via MPEG Streamclip, what did you convert them to?
Have you tried trashing your preferences in FCP? Trashing FCP prefs is usually the first step when FCP is performing strangely.

I saved my completed rendered video in Publish and Share as an MP4, but where is the file saved to. I set it to be saved on my desktop, but I don't see it. thanks

What version of Premiere Elements and what computer operating system? You have a few other threads awaiting follow up, and consequently that information
is not available elsewhere.
What is your specific export...
Publish+Share
Computer
AVCHD
and Presets = MP4 - H.264 1920 x 1080p30 or something like that.
Specific please.
But what specifically are you entering in the Save In: field of the dialog that includes the Save button to initiate the export process.
Are you saving it as a file to the Desktop or to a specific folder on the Desktop? Have you given the export a distinctive file name?
The screenshot shows the Save In: to the Desktop as a file.
I have no idea of your background with the program, so I ask these questions so as to take nothing for granted.
If the computer Desktop is crowded, as mine often is, it is easy to have difficulty spotting a file save to the Desktop.
We will be watching for your follow up.
Thank you.

Blog Archive Webpart Does Not List Posts When Publish Date is About early months,years in sharepoint 2013

I create blog posts . Their publish date are different from now and their publish date are the early months. For example i create 30 blog bosts in 15.08.2014. But 10 blog posts' publish date is 15.04.2013,20 blog posts' publish date is 15.03.2012. I can
not see them in the blog archive part. There must be April 2013 and March 2012 in the archive part,but i can not see them.
How can i see them in the blog archive webpart?
When i create a blog post, what is the main issue about the date? What is the main issue about date about grouping them.
How can i show the blog posts according to the publish date not create date? İs it possible?
Can you help me please?

Captivate 6 rendering issues when publishing flash only

Hello,
I wanted to ask if anybody else is experiencing the same issue as I am experiencing when I publish my captivate 6 projects:
Issue:
Project consists of 46 slides. No advanced actions. Multiple rollover images and text captions are on several slides. software capture
When publishing to a USB or my desktop then previewing I get rendering issues and these vary from parts of the software that I am capturing not appearing at all to my master slide templates disappearing. Whenever this happens I try publishing to flash 10 and ctick the force republish of all slides - sometimes this fixes the problem sometimes it does not. So I try publishing to flash 9 force republish of all slides sometimes this fixes the problem sometimes it does not. It is just so hit and miss I have to publish 4 to 5 times before I finally am successful. So of course this is extremely frustrating when I have to make changes to the project and republish.
Also notice that viewing in web browser has the same issue.
Think I am going to have to go back to captivate 5.5, which is such a shame as I really love some of the new features in 6.
Does anybody have any ideas as to why this may be happening?
I have attached two screen dumps - one where the screen is rendered poorly and the other where I have crossed all of my fingers and toes and republished and the screen has been rendered correctly:
Thanks
Ali

Hello Sankaram,
I am experiencing the same problem as Ali, where my master slide randomly disappears in my published project. I tried the options you listed above. I also deselected "Use Master Slide Background" and "Project Background" on each slide.
Also, I have a button on each slide (next button to move through the slides) and sometimes disappears as well. However, I can still click in that region where it should be visible, and it will progress to the next slide.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Jackie

Captivate 5 not rendering large exe files properly

Have imported large swf files into Captivate % (with seperate .wav files for audio). They all synch on the timeline at 24fps. for each slide. They look great in preview and when published to .exe they look fine on some computers. But we have encountered on at least 1 computer that the audio is out of synch with the video, and the video lags behind.
Would have not thought that this would be a problem with Captivate 5 exes.... Does anyone know a solution?
For preferences, I used Flash Player 9.

Sounds like the issue is something to do with either the specs or the codecs of the machine having problems.
The larger the SWF file and the more video you have, the more some machines will struggle to keep up with the decompression cycles.
Is the problem box of a lower spec (CPU speed etc) than the machines playing the content OK?
What version of Flash player is on each of the machines? (FP 10 handles video better)
Are the codecs up to date on that machine?
Find out what the differences are and you'll have your solution.

Static text in textfields renders differently when published in CS4/CS5

Hi
I am experiencing an issue where legacy files I created in Flash CS4 look different when published in CS5. Fonts are rendered differently. I have noticed it so far on DIN and Goudy Modern. The output when published in is CS5 is markedly different than the output when published in CS4.
Can anyone offer any pointers on how to think about, deal with, avoid etc.
Many thanks.
Mike
UPDATE
A little more logic to add.
It seems to be opening the file in CS5 changes the fonts somehow. CS4 files that I have not opened in CS5 publish as I would expect in CS4. CS4 files that I have opened in CS5 publish differently whether then published in CS5 or CS4. On Goudy for example. In CS5 adding .5 to the character spacing and 3.5 (not 2) to the line spacing makes the font render similarly in CS5 as it did in CS4 at 0 character spacing and 2 on the line height.

Yes. It's static. I recreated the text and now it works. Weird.
Thank you for your reply and time.

Published software simulation not displaying correctly when published

Hello,
When viewing a Captivate 6 software simulation either through the Preview mode or when published, screens will 'break up' at different points - part of the previous screen will stay in view when it moves to the next screen. This doesn't happen for the first couple of times it is viewed, which is a worry as you never know who/when it is going to happen.
Once the projects is copied over to a new blank project it will be fine for a few views and then do the same again - it is not always at the same place.
Does anyone know what may be causing this?
Thanks,

You might try de-selecting the Advanced Project Compression option in the preferences:

Captivate 8 - Issue with interactions when publishing to html5

Has anyone else had difficulty with the built-in learning interactions when publishing to html5? Are they incompatible? We've had a few hiccups with things as we do all publishing to html5 and there seem to be some disconnects.

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
Chrome 38.0.2125.104 m
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)
Publish settings (pretty much the defaults):

JSF Pages are not rendering correctly when loaded using Non JSF actions

Hi All,
This problem is irritating me and I am posting the same query for the third time here.
When I come from non jsf actions such as page submitting using Javascript, clicking anchor link, clicking normal Html submit button and so on my page is not rendering correctlly .
In other words, My first GET method/Post method works perfectly for the first time when the page is loaded.
But when we try to access the page for the second time, although logical work is perfect in bean, I am getting same old page.
How to resolve this issue?
or
Is this Bug of Sun's Implementation of JSF Framework.
Thanks,
Sudhakar

Hi Sudhakar,
There is a discussion about refreshing a page, Take a look at the below thread

Muse site not displaying correctly when 'Published' to BC

Hi all
Strange incidents happening with a Muse site I'm designing for a client. When I use the Publish feature (which uploads the site to the default Business Catalyst domain you get with the Muse subscription) it throws the elements all over the place, so buttons, type, imaegry and widgets aren't wheere they should be.
I've cleared the cache, restarted the browser, tried in other browsers and still the same result, so pretty unhappy.
When I 'Preview' the site in a browser everything seems perfect.
Bizarre thing is when designing my first ste the opposite was the case; lots of visual problems when using 'Preview' but perfect when 'Published' to BC.
Anyone got any ideas as to why this is happening?
All help appreciated

Hi gaurav
Thanks for the reply, think we have the solution. Apparantly Muse is not uploading the updated CSS files. I created a test domain on my own website to use for this project and uploaded via Fetch and everything worked fine.
So it looks like it's an issue with Muse

RichTree is not rendered properly when created in Managed Bean

HI,
I am trying to create af:tree in managed bean using RichTree. It is not rendering the tree nodes properly. It is only showing the nodes, node text is missing. I am using EL expression to show the value in node element. But when I am creating the af:tree in jspx page, it is working properly.

HI,
When you see the output of the code, you will find 2 different trees one with proper label and another with out labels. This tree is showing the folder structor. When i am creating the tree in managed bean, the EL expression of the component added in nodeStamp is not getting evaluated. To make sure that same component is stamped as nodeStamp, i tried by setting default value in that component, and it is showing the same hard coded value.
But the same EL expression is getting evaluated for the tree in JSPX page.

JavaHelp not rendering HTML when run from Fatjar

I'm experiencing a strange problem with JavaHelp: when I run my app from Eclipse and open JavaHelp, the html help pages render just fine. If I Fatjar the app and run it from the fatjar, however, then when I open the JavaHelp, my html help pages are displayed as raw text, HTML tags and all. For some reason it's not rendering the HTML. I'm guessing that maybe the fatjar is messing up the JEditorPane's ability to detect the content-type of the help pages, but I have no idea how to fix it if that's the case.
I'm using a plain vanilla HelpSet file, pretty much straight out of the JavaHelp User's Guide.
Anyone have any idea what might be causing this or how I might fix it/work around it? Has anyone else seen this problem before?

For whatever it's worth, I am seeing this problem as well. It doesn't seem to have to do with FatJar, as I'm seeing it when I simply do the following:
    HelpSet helpSet = null;
    final ClassLoader cl = this.getClass().getClassLoader();
    try {
      helpSet = new HelpSet(null, HelpSet.findHelpSet(this.getClass().getClassLoader(), "IdeHelp.hs")); // XXX bogus for now
    } catch (final Exception kaboom) {
      helpSet = null;
    if (helpSet != null) {
      final HelpBroker helpBroker = helpSet.createHelpBroker();
      final ActionListener helpItemActionListener = new CSH.DisplayHelpFromSource(helpBroker);
      final JMenuItem primaryHelpItem = new JMenuItem("Help\u2026");
      primaryHelpItem.addActionListener(helpItemActionListener);
      helpMenu.add(primaryHelpItem);
    }I suspect it's a problem with the classloader, but I haven't dug to find out what exactly.
Best,
Laird

Audio not rendered - but when I tell FCE to render it, nothing happens

When I pull in some DV files, FCE shows my audio as not rendered, with that red line. So I tell it to render it, and nothing happens. I get a very brief flash of the rendering progress bar, the red line disappears, but the audio remains unrendered because when you play it you get silence (I have turned off the annoying "beeping").
Even if I save the project, or quit and restart, or tell FCE to render everything, my audio remains stubbornly unrendered.
Any suggestions?

Hey, I had the same thing happen to me. I'm not sure if this is the best answer, but in order to get it to render, i had to select the audio in the timeline and in the menu, i select Render Only --> Needs Render. That worked for me. Hopefully that will solve your problem too. Good luck!
