Does Adobe Captivate 4 allow you to produce output in the H.264 format?

O.K., I don't really understand my own question. My department is probably buying some additional Captivate licenses for a project. One of the techies asked a colleague of mine if the Captivate licenses we are buying will allow us to publish in H.264.
I don't have Captivate 4, but I'm guessing the answer is "No". Based on my understanding, H.264 is the codec for the MPEG-4 video format utilized by iTunes, YouTube, etc. Not that I fully understand exactly what a codec is.
My assumption is that a .swf to video converter would be needed to publish Captivate files in the H.264 format.
Is this correct? Or is this capability part of Adobe Captivate 4?
Thanks.

Hi there
I certainly cannot claim to be any sort of expert on the H.264 format, but Captivate 4 only produces SWF, EXE and AVI formats. So you are correct in that you would need to convert from either the SWF or AVI format to an H.264 format. From what I understand, AVI and MP4 are the two file extensions you may find H.264 file format used. So I suppose it's possible to say that if you have a CODEC (Compressor/Decompressor) installed for H.264, Captivate could spit out an AVI encoded in H.264 format.

Why Does Adobe Captivate 8 Web Object Not Get Published Correctly

Hi
I am trying to insert a YouTube video in Adobe Captivate and publish it. While it previews fine, when i publish it as an SWF, i see just a blank frame.
Can you help out here? Also, if I want to publish it as an PDF, will the video play there too?
Warm Regards
Akshay

Hi Akshay,
I am assuming the method you are using now is embedding Youtube videos into your Web object. My suggestion is it will be much easier if you use the Youtube Learning Interaction instead of a Web object to insert Youtube videos to your Captivate project.
This can be found in the Interactions Toolbar -> Learning Interactions -> Youtube
Also, as Sreekanth mentioned, please test it on a web server, or SCORM cloud.
Youtube interaction will work when exported to PDF as well.
Regards,
Mohana

Does Adobe Captivate 7 or 8 support japanese characters in closed captions

Our Japanese team would like to translate the scripts we are using for our videos and have us apply the translation in the closed captions section. However, will Adobe 7 or 8 support Japanese Characters?

I also agree with your suggestions but posting them here on this forum is of very little use.
If you want any chance of having them taken seriously by Adobe, this is where you need to post them:

Does Final Cut Express allow you to create EDLs?

Considering purchasing Final cut express but wondering if anyone know if it allows you to create EDLs?
Also curious as to wether timelines created in Express can also be used in Studio?

A timeline created in FCE can be used in FCP, but not vice versa. FCE has no EDL export function.

Does Firefox 4 not allow you to append script tags with external/local sources?

Hello,
I am trying to use JSONP to append a <script> tag with an external source (and local)... The page I am trying to append is a valid JSON file, and the script worked fine in Firefox 3, and still works fine in Safari 5 and Internet Explorer 8... So it leads me to believe that Firefox 4 has closed the security hole that allowed me to do this.
The code I am using is:
$.jsonp({
url: "http://localhost/All.json",
callback: "callback",
success: function(data) {
alert("Success");
complete: function(xOptions, textStatus) {
alert("Complete");
error: function(xOptions, textStatus) {
// This will be called in case of error no matter the callback name
});

When debugging with Firebug it says this inbetween the <script> and </script> tags:
Failed to load source for: http://localhost/All.json?_1300977243502=

Does Adobe Premier Pro CS6 and After Effects CS6 support the graphic found in the new late 2012 27" iMac?

Hi there guys! I´m very, very, VERY close to buy a full configuration iMac (the late 2012 27" model) but I have reed in different forums that Adobe Premier Pro CS6 and other applications from Adobe such as After Effects DO NOT support the graphic cards found in the new iMacs....

thanks for your attention

Hi there Daniel, thanks for paying attention to this subject. Today I got an answer from Larry Jordan from his blog (I believe he is one of the "videoguys" from http://videoguys.com and he said that actually adobe does not support those GPU that we will find in the new late 2012 iMacs. However it seems there is a way to make that work out.....
here is his review on his new iMac, at the very botton you will see comments from people and his answers... one of the last coments is mine regarding this subject, this is what I asked and his answer:
mGabo Jan 18, 2013 08:50Hi there Larry, I reed in your other post on your iMac that Adobe didn´t support the Nvidia graphic cards found in this model, I have been asking in forums about this and people say Adobe does supports them……Do you know if Adobe now works fine with these cards?
Larry Jan 18, 2013 11:10When I contacted Adobe about this a couple months ago, just after the release of the new iMacs, I was told that Adobe did not support the graphics card at that time. There is, however, a workaround, which I’m hoping to write up this weekend.Larry
mGabo Jan 18, 2013 12:28 oh! great Larry! please post the link of that article so I can follow that!many thanks
here is the link of this article: http://www.larryjordan.biz/app_bin/wordpress/archives/2084/comment-page-1#commen t-7853
so far I haven´t find anyone who can expalin to me how can I get these Nvidia GPUs working with adobe premier and aplications alike from adobe.

Why does Adobe Elements 12 destroy my Olympus makernotes section of the metadata

I downloaded the trial version of Adobe Elements 12 and pointed it to a test folder with some of my Olympus OM-D E-M1 photos. I viewed the file properties from within Elements which showed all of the camera info, exposure, aperture, lens used, camera make and model etc..... I then added a couple faces with the facial recognition, added some captions saved it to the Metadata and then went back in to look at the file properties from within Elements. All of the makernotes were screwed up. I no longer see the lens, exposure or any of the camera data. What's up with this? I verified it by running EXIFTool and it shows that the makernotes now has corrupt info that EXIFtool can not read - this ends up being stuff that Elements added in.
Doesn't anyone care about camera maker notes? Doesn't anyone use this information? I like being able to go back and look at a picture I really like and see exactly what lens I was using, focal length it was set to, and all of the other camera settings at the time of the exposure. It helps me learn and improve my skills. Doesn't anyone else do this?
Is there any software out there that does NOT destroy this information?
Norm

I've downloaded Adobe Captivate 8 64-bit Free Trial, installed but the program won't open.

I've uninstalled and re-installed, tried the 32-bit version with the same result. It says it's installed successfully. I'm on a Windows 7 64-bit PC.
Recommendations??
