CP7 - quiz slides continue to play after timeline

I'm using quiz slides with audio in Captivate 7.
The audio plays, I choose an answer and click Submit, then click Y to continue, and whether I'm right or wrong, the playbar is only 1/2 - 2/3 way through the slide. So I have to wait while the slide plays out, long after the audio (and the slide) ends.
The Results slide that follows is hidden, with the option turned off in Preferences, so the quiz slide is usually the last slide of the project.
Does anyone know what's going on?
Thanks for any help,
Marion

Default pausing point for question slides (and score slide) is half its timeline. With the default timeline duration of 3 secs this means that after the two-step process still 1.5secs has to go.
Have a look at my explanations, and tweaking possibilities:

You can move the pausing point more towards the end, but only with the mouse (there is no Timing accordion). Or you can change the Continue option to 'Go to Next Slide' both for Success/Failure.
BTW this is nothing new, has always been the case. The posts were written for previous versions.
I would recommend to add a last slide after the last question slide, it doesn't have to be the Score slide, certainly if you want to report to a LMS (allow little bit of time to CP)

Q10 ring tone continues to play after missed call

using q10.
the ring tone continues to play after missed call. tried to change the ring tone from song to default ring tone available in the os but the problem remains the same.

I recommend installing the official version 10.1.0.4181
By now also tell them that these errors will be fixed in the next official update to OS 10.2 is expected to be available soon.
My thinking about the end of October.
Regards.

Sound on slides does not play after first slide.

I created a presentation with 5 slides. I put the same sound file on each of the 5 slides. The slides are setup to play automatically.
If I play the presentation in Keynote, it works perfectly.
I exported to html and put on my web site. If I view the presentation in Safari the slides load one after the other correctly, but the sound only works on the 1st slide. On slides 2 thru 5, the sound only plays for about 1 second and then quits.
If I view the presentation using Firefox, nothing works, slides do do load correctly, and no sound at all.
I exported to Quicktime and played it, and the quality is so bad I can barely see what is going on.
I installed a new Keynote app from app store, and same problems.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Lewis Poteet

Having Audio Continue to Play AFTER the Clip Has Ended

I am very frustrated with iMovie '09 mainly because of the audio, I have a .5 second video clip and a 1 second audio clip, but for some stupid reason it decides to cut the audio clip to fit the video clip and i cant change the length of the audio clip. I want it to play when the clip starts and even when its OVER. Is there any way to change this or should I just stick with iMovie HD?

Drag a still with a black background into your project at the length you need and the sound will not be truncated. You can do this from the titles pane. Drag a title into the project after the .5 second clip and set it as black background.

Music with slide show stops playing after about a minute

I tried a different song but had the same issue. Any suggestions to resolve this?

Why are you posting this question in an iWeb forum? Does it have anything to do with iWeb?
Why not go and post it in the iPhoto forum and you might get more help there.

My itunes continues to play very faintly after I quit the program, what could cause this?

My itunes continues to play very faintly after I quit the program. I actually though I was going crazy but it does continue to play after the program has been shut down. Very, very low volume though. I can't pause it or turn it up or down. I do us imatch. Please Help!!!!

Do you have backups of all the data on the startup drive? If not, do nothing else until you've backed up that data, if you still can.

Skip audio on quiz slide

Hello Captivate Community,
I'm a long time lurker / dabbler finally putting Captivate to use in some "real" projects.
I'm working with a quiz slide and I'm wondering if there is any way to control audio. I'd like the learner to be able to skip audio so I figured I could add a button to hide the audio object but I see that there is no way to add a button to a quiz slide.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Rick

Hello Lilybiri,
Thanks for your response. I'm against using the mute button as this is a global setting and would force the learner to unmute for other slides. And I don't think your other suggestion will work for my course flow. My scenario will work like this: Learner arrives at quiz slide and audio plays narrating question and answers. If the learner answers incorrectly they are forwarded to a video remediation. After remediation the learner is returned to the quiz slide to try again. At this point audio plays again and I would like to give the learner an option to skip audio, but I see I am probably out of luck.

Problem: Video on slide one continues to play and can be heard in the background, even after the user has navigated to another slide.

Problem: Video on slide one continues to play in the background, even after user has navigated to another slide. This only happens on a fresh reload of the page.
Has anyone else had this problem, or found a solution?
If you refresh the page and start over, the problem doesn't happen. But on the first page load it always seems to happen.
Here is a link to the module I am working with. If you let the video play for a couple seconds on the first slide, and then click a navigation link to another slide, you will still hear the audio from the first slide playing.

To clarify - this happens in both IE and Chrome, and is the Flash version of the content.

User cannot Click Anywhere to Continue on some quiz slides

In Captivate 4, on some quiz slides, after the correct answer has been submitted, the user must click on the "click anywhere to continue" box in order to move ahead. This happens only on some quiz slides. Others, the user really can click anywhere. And, this doesn't happen all the time on every computer. It usually happens on the same slides but not always. It happens in Explorer and Firefox and occasionally Chrome, but not as often. Haven't encountered the problem using Safari, yet, but have tested it.
I reported it through the report bug link in case it is a bug. All of the slides have the same setting, so I don't know why it's happening on some slides and not others.

Hi there
Thanks for reporting as a bug. I might suggest that as a work around, you change the captions to read "Click here to continue". At least it would guide the user to the right and expected outcome.
Cheers... Rick

How to continue on in the timeline after movie is over

Anybody,
Let say your on frame 3 of your timeline and you have a video
that plays 2 minutes. When it is finished how do you continue on in
the timeline to frame 4. What can trigger the timeline to go
forward after the movie is over?
Thank you, Brian

what type of 'movie' are you referring to? a FLV video? is so
use an event listener and the 'complete' event. if it is a MC then
on the last frame of the movieclip use: _parent.play();

Audio Delay After Random Quiz Slide

Captivate PC Ver 7.0.0.118
I have text-to-speech audio narration on every slide which begins at .5 seconds. I have a random quiz question on slide X. On slide X+1, the audio narration takes a considerable amount of time to begin playing, upwards of 15 seconds when it should start at .5s.
I've tested many things. Ultimately removing the random quiz slide fixes the problem, but that is not an option. Moving the quiz slide backward or forward makes the problem consistent in which the audio is delayed on any slide which directly follows the quiz.
I've always set up my courses with intermittent quizzes for user engagement and have rarely encountered this issue to which I cannot find a cure. Any help would be awesome.
Thank you.
Jeff

Hi,
Based on our experiences, we have encountered similar behavior.
Because RDP was oroginally designed to flush the video frame buffer to the client about once every 100 milliseconds. While this is fine for most Windows GDI applications, graphic intensive applications, 3D applications and applications requiring
audio / video synchronization don’t fare so well. With respect to streaming media in particular, RDP is only meant to cache the bitmap files (compressed) not the audio which is uncompressed over the wire.
Quoted from this blog below:
Terminal Services and Graphically Intensive Applications
http://blogs.technet.com/b/askperf/archive/2009/04/17/terminal-services-and-graphically-intensive-applications.aspx
In addition, there are also a few suggestions within the blog which could improve RDP session performance such as update drivers, increase network bandwidth and frame rate on the client side.
Best Regards,
Amy

Continue to play iTunes after closing MacBook Pro

I recently got my MacBook Pro, and I was speachless when I found that when I closed my laptop that my music would continue to play. I would walk around campus playing music with a closed laptop-it was great. But then I needed to restart my computer, and after the reboot this function was disabled somehow. How can I get this feature active again? I really want to know.
Thanks.

I think your machine just flaked out for whatever reason. It is not supposed to do that. You can disable sleep while the lid is closed with software such as InsomniaX.
However, I must warn you that use of this software is dangerous. You are not supposed to use the machine this way. In theory, you can use it while the lid is closed when connected to an external monitor, keyboard, and mouse. So, software like InsomniaX might be OK.
I am positive that you do not want to keep your Mac in a bag while doing this. It would definitely overheat and cause damage. Considering how much a replacement MacBook Pro will cost, perhaps you should consider an iPod instead.

How to continue to play iTunes even after the cover of my MacBook Pro is closed?

I would like to play iTunes in my MacBook Pro during travel. As it is better and safer to keep the MacBook closed during travel, I would like the iTunes to continue to play. How is it to be achieved?

There is no easy solution.
An iPod will do the job.
Best.

IE freezes when playing quiz slides via LMS

Has anyone experienced issues with Internet Explorer going into Not Responding status when attempting to complete or move through quiz slides when they are displayed via an LMS? Using Captivate 4, published to Flash 8, IE 7.
-beverly

Yes, I have experienced something very similar.
It will sometimes freeze when the user answers a question and then clicks the submit button. Sometimes it will also freeze when a user clicks on the IE close button (Red X in the upper right hand corner)...Or sometimes it will close the browser but then our LMS stops responding.
