Demo & Video - Can this be done?

My client would like to have a captivate demo of their
software on the right side of the screen, while on the left there
is video of a manager explaining the demo.
It would look like this:

Can this be done with just Captivate? From what I can tell
your recording has to be the full size of your project. If not,
anyone know what tools could be used to do this? I assume Flash,
but would imagine the difficulty would be getting the demo and the
video to be in sync.
Any suggestions/thoughts are very appreciated.
Edit: I think I should have put this post in General. Anyone
know how to have it moved? I don't want to create multiple posts of
the same topic.
Thanks!

Welcome to our community, Choksi
I'm pretty sure you can do this with Captivate, some
imagination and another little Adobe product called Visual
Communicator.
Click here
for the Visual Communicator site)
Basically, you would record the demonstration at the smaller
size. Then you would create a larger Captivate presentation that
would hold the whole thing. You would then have the basic
demonstration occurring in the left side of the screen as your
image shows. Now for the fun part. You would use Visual
Communicator to record many smaller video segments that describe
what is occurring over on the left side of the screen. Once
recorded, you would produce them as .FLV files and insert them onto
the Captivate slides as needed.
I suppose you may be able to also work the other way around.
Create the Captivate projects and insert them into Visual
Communicator. Not sure if it supports that quite yet, but may be
interesting.
Hopefully that helps... Rick

    I want to share a file that is 500 meg (video) can this be done via iCloud?

    yes, my kids live 30 to 50 ,lies away and my brother in law 300 miles.
    You get the ip address of the TC using airport utility. Don't use the local lan number such as 10.0.3.12
    Using the Finder go to the top of the Desktop and select Go then connect to server,  type afp://that ip number , leave the user name alone and type in password. The TC hard drive should show on the Desktop.
    You have to set it up first using Airport Utility: launch it and go to the Disks tab. Check box enable file sharing and share disks over wan, choose secure disk with a password  and type in your password. The other person will need to know the password.
    You can now copy files over to the TC i.e. upload and download files.

  • Bookmarking video: Can this be done with QT server?

    I am considering a hosting service that has QT streaming.
    I'd like a capability similar to DVD chapters for my on-line video, with links in the description under the video that will go to a specific time code or bookmark on my video.
    Can this be done?
    Thanks,
    Cris

    I did look up the LiveStage web site to see what that is all about. The example sites were all VR, panoramic, displays all of which is very impressive but not what I need. I couldn;t get your movie to display properly, so I didn't see what is supposed to do. I do thank you for pointing me toward something I hadn't seen before which is totally cool.
    Many quicktime movies I have found on the web which claim to be streaming are really progressive download. I can't position the cursor ahead of what has already downloaded. Those that actually do stream and buffer well will allow me to jump about anywhere on the time line.
    When I drag and click or simple click somewhere on time line using the controls of the Quicktime browser plug-in, the movie will buffer and start playing at the chosen location.
    Obviously, there is communication with the server. I just want more control over than communication. I'd like to be able to send a command to the server telling it to go to a particular frame or time code and start buffering and then playing from that specified time.
    It seems so obvious. I can't believe that there isn't a script to do this.
    There are Apple Scripts that control navigation in Quicktime Player, scecifically "Move to X in front movie" Apple Script. It works with Quicktime Player on files stored on my computer.

    Syncing between iPhoto on your iPhone and iPhoto on your Mac is one-way.  You can sync selected albums, events, faces, places albums from your Mac to iPhoto on your iPhone using iTunes. This will not delete any albums you created on your iPhone, just add new albums. But albums you create on your iPhone cannot be synced to your Mac.
    See this page on how to transfer photos from iPhoto on your iPhone to your Mac:

  • I want to shoot a movie on my iPhone and edit it on my iPad using the iMovie app. How can this be done via iTunes on my computer?

    I want to shoot a movie on my iPhone and edit it on my iPad using the iMovie app. How can this be done via iTunes on my computer?

    You can't drag video into the filesharing pane of iTunes, you can only transfer projects.
    Videos need to come in via the photos tab of iTunes.
    The easiest way to get videos from the iPhone to the iPad is via the project export import.
    Projects can be exported from the iPhone, then imported to the iPad like this:
    iPhone Send a project or trailer to iTunes
    If the marquee screen isn’t showing, tap the My Projects button .
    Scroll to center the project or trailer you want to share.
    Tap the Share button at the bottom of the screen, and then tap iTunes; tap OK when iMovie indicates that export is complete.
    Connect your device to your computer, and then open iTunes on your computer.After a moment, your device appears in iTunes, below Devices on the left.
    Select the device, and then click Apps at the top of the iTunes window.
    Select iMovie in the Apps list below File Sharing. (You may need to scroll to see it.)
    In the iMovie Documents pane, select the file you just shared, and then click the “Save to” button; save the file to your computer in a place where you can find it easily.You can also save the file by dragging it to the desired location on your computer.
    Disconnect the device from your computer.
    iPad Import a project or trailer from iTunes
    Connect your device to your computer, and open iTunes on your computer.After a moment, your device appears in iTunes, below Devices on the left.
    Select the device, and click Apps at the top of the iTunes window.
    Select iMovie in the Apps list below File Sharing. (You may need to scroll to see it.)
    Click Add below the iMovie Documents pane; in the window that appears, navigate to the file you want to add.
    Select the file, and then click Open to copy the file to your device.The file appears in the iMovie Documents pane when copying is complete.
    Open iMovie on your device; if the marquee screen isn’t showing, tap the My Projects button in the upper-left corner above the viewer.
    Tap the Import button at the bottom of the screen, and then tap the name of the project you want to import.When the import is complete, the project opens and can be edited like any other project.

  • I am trying to extend my airport extreme signal to another airport extreme can this be done? I have tried several time using the automated set up but it keeps failing... What am I doing wrong?

    I am trying to extend my airport extreme signal to another airport extreme can this be done? I have tried several time using the automated set up but it keeps failing... I have selected every possible security/password encryption level... What am I doing wrong? If it os possible where can I find step by step instructions? Please & Thank you!

    The challenge with the older round AirPort Extremes are that they are "g" wireless devices.
    When you configure them for WDS, the speed on the wireless network is cut in half...and probably will not have the bandwidth required to stream video reliably from either AirPort Extreme since both are affected by the WDS setup.
    There is not an "automated" setup for WDS. You have to do this manually on both AirPort Extremes. Unfortunately, it is not an easy configuration and it's easy to make a mistake and hard to recover without starting all over again.
    Apple's instructions for WDS are here if you want to give it a try.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4262
    It is possible that it might work. Keep us posted on your progress
    Adding a single AirPort Express will unfortunately not help. You have to have "n" wireless devices at all router points.

    Can this be done using a Spry dataset that can be changed

    I want to Connect my Mac Mini as a Slave to a Mac pro Server while at the same time using the Mac mini's thunderbolt ports peripherals ( ie monitor, Sound Card, Hard drives) Creating a poor man's new mac Pro. Can this be Done?

    Well, I really would love the new unreleased mac pro however , I'm not sure of the expected cost , Everyone speculates from $3,000 to $8,000, in which I may have to wait a while to purchase.
    To the point .... I want fully functional thunderbolt ports to be on the current mac pro's .... wonder if anyone had workarounds yet?...  or could I chain the the current mac pro to a mac mini to make that happen?

    How do I set up two separate iTunes accounts on one MacBook Pro in order to manage the wife's iPhone and my iPhone (with separate info on each of course) ? Can this be done? A little step by step would be greatly appreciated; just short step by step though, I can follow fairly well.

  • I would like to transfer the balance from one Apple ID to another how can this be done??

    I want to transfer the account ballance from my account to my son's. I unintentionally redeemed one of his gift cards to my account. how can this be done?

    Sorry, but balances can't be transferred from one iTunes Store account to another. You'll either have to make his purchases through your account, or buy another prepaid card and redeem that in his account.
    BTW, for future questions, this forum is for questions from those managing sites on iTunes U, Apple's service for colleges and universities to post educational material in the iTunes Store. You'll be most likely to get help if you ask in the general iTunes forums.

  • I want to have 2 seperate libraries with content in different locations, can this be done?

    Hi there, I have 2 uses for itunes, one is for my mobile DJ business and for this I store all of my music on a 2TB external firewire 800 HDD I use Traktor Pro to mix, but find itunes very good for creating playlists.  I would however like to be able to store seperate content on my internal drive in a different library for personal use as a great deal of the stuff in my DJ collection I personally have no time for, and do not want the inconvenience of needing to connect my external HDD to be able to listen to my own collection.  I have a SSD installed and have tried depressing the CMD button during startup of the application although no option for creating a new library presents its self, it may be that the start up is too quick for me to be able out this.  Any ideas guys? Many thanks.

    there may be other (better) ways out there but all i can think of is this:
    1) make one iTunes library the main one and "consolidate" files that aren't in it, but in the other computer's libraries, to it.
    you can use home sharing for this but home sharing won't copy ratings, playcounts, and original "date added". a 3rd party tool such as PowerTunes would be very useful if those details are important to you.
    2) once the "main" library is created, copy the entire iTunes folder (not just the iTunes music or media folder) to the media server, launch iTunes while holding the option(⌥) key, click on choose library when prompted, and select the iTunes folder you copied to the new location.
    3) repeat with the other Macs.
    with a setup such as this, be aware that only one iTunes at a time can access the library. if your intention is to enable multiple machines to access the library simultaneously, you will probably have look into a NAS with a built-in iTunes server.
