Embed Video in Captivate 7

Is it possible to embed a video in Captivate 7?

Please tell us what your definition of "embed" is.
With Captivate, all video is simply linked to and is called when needed. It is never an integrated part of the output that would simply be included with the output file. It would always have to be included among the files you distribute.
Cheers.. Rick

Embed multiple YouTube videos in Captivate 5.5

I have multiple YouTube videos that I would like to insert into one Captivate file, each video on a separate slide. If the learner moves away from the slide, I'd like the video to stop. If they should return to the slide, ideally the video would be a the beginning point.
I've been searching for a while. I found one where it will play one YouTube video per Captivate file, but not multiple videos. Also that one would show a transparent gray over the video while it played.
Thank you for any assistance.

Erik,
Thank you for replying. I apologize that I did not reply sooner.
I thought I found a widget that I could embed the YouTube videos within a slide, but was having problems trying to get it to work.
I changed my plan and now have the video opening in a separate window. Because we do not have a technical person to help us for possible future issues this will be a better direction for us to move in.
Again, thank you!

Can you embed video/audio in a captivate file?

i was wondering if it's possible to somehow embed video/audio files in a captivate slideshow so that no sidecar files are required?
or will i always need to keep seperate linked mp3 and flv files along side the captivate file?
thanks!

okay thanks shekhar for you reply : ) i don't have much experience with captivate, only flash.
i think i've figured out that when inserting an audio file (e.g. .wav) the file is actually embedded in the cptx file, meaning you don't need the .wav file as a seperate file (like for example the way linked files in indesign work).
however, for video files, i still don't know if it works the same way. are the files embedded? or linked?
let me put it this way: if i have a captivate file that has video and audio in it and i want to move the project to a different computer - do i need to take only the cptx file? or do i need to also move some media files as well?
thanks

Embedded Vimeo videos in Captivate 8: Stop working after Border or Scrolling settings are changed

I am embedding Vimeo videos into Captivate 8 slides, using Insert > Web object > Embed. It usually works fine, but then if I change the Border or Scrolling settings, the published slide shows a 404 for (not found) error. I have confirmed that the Embed code does not change. The only workaround I have found is to recreate the Embed objects. Is there a way to stop this problem from happening?

Here's the embed code:
<iframe src="//player.vimeo.com/video/111254439?title=0&byline=0&portrait=0" width="500" height="281" frameborder="0" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen allowfullscreen></iframe> <p>Why Should Social Workers Know About DV? from <a href="http://vimeo.com/user21657102">ACWE</a> on <a href="https://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>.</p>
It's set for Public on Vimeo.

Embed Video in Word Acrobat 9

Okay, I've lloked at seom of the forum post, but could not find an answer. Here's my dilemna. We have a full license of Acrobat 9 Pro. When using Word, I try to embed a video via the Embed Video option in the Acrobat tab. However, that option is not avaiolabel. Insearching teh forums and internet, I found that Actobat 9 Pro Extended has that option. I downloaded a trial. While installing, it told me that I hasd a higher version of Acrobat 9 (Pro). So here are myu questions:
Is Pro better thatn Extended?
Is the Embed Video option availbale in Word with Acrobat 9?
If Embed Video options is not availabel, is there an add-in or plug-in to do this w/ Acrobat 9 Pro installed?
Thanks in advanced,
Clyde

Where can I find the movie tool and flash tool in Word?
The tools are in Adobe Acrobat.
Is Pro better than Extended?
No. Look here:

Is the Embed Video option availbale in Word
with Acrobat 9?
Yes, with Acrobat 9 Pro Extended.

Linking to external video in Captivate 7

I develop video-based training. Each slide includes mostly video. I've been successfully embedding f4v videos into Captivate projects for some time but video quality and file size issues make it necessary to begin linking to videos on external servers.
I've tried a number of options without success.
I create a video event, choose the url option, and add the url from the uploaded video. The only usable server choice is the Adobe Media Streaming Service. I've tested the videos on different servers including Amazon since the troubleshooting advice alerted me that only Adobe partners servers will be recognized. The project previews and the progress bar moves as if the video is playing but only the background file is visible. I tried all the preview options - no luck.
I decided to try the YouTube widget. I uploaded test videos to YouTube, inserted the Interaction widget and added the url, etc. This option results in a successful preview only when I choose the html 5 output in web browser option. Captivate will successfully publish the project but I get "Java Script Error unable to acquire LMS, API content, may not play properly" messages.
The published file performs like all of the unsuccessful previews. The file loads and acts as if the videos are playing in that the progress bar moves but there is no video, just the slide background image. I tried different output settings like just SWF, just html5, both SWF and html5, different versions of the flash player, etc. I also added the output folder to the Flash Global Security settings in case it was a permissions issue.
I'm working on a mac so I emailed a zipped file to my PC and tried to open in Internet Explorer to see if the file might play on a different system or browser - same outcome - no luck.
Making external video work is critical to my work and use of Captivate so I'm hoping there's something I'm missing or misunderstanding about what I need to do.
Any help or advice will be appreciated.

I'm continuing to have problems with the YouTube widget. My client sent me YouTube links and when I copied and pasted the new links into the Captivate file and the published and uploaded the file, the links didn't work.
To review, I uploaded video files to YouTube and used the interactions widget to insert the linked videos. The videos which I uploaded can be previewed in html5 in web browser but not in any other way. When I publish this file and view the file on my system on my browser (Safari) the file opens but the videos do not play. However, when I upload to my ftp site and open the file from there, the linked YouTube videos play.
So this led me to believe that I have a file that will work at least in html5 output. But when I replace the original YouTube links that I uploaded with new links provided by my client the videos preview in html5 in web browser mode but do not play on my system or when uploaded to my ftp site. All of the videos (mine and my clients) play in YouTube and preview in html5 mode.
Additionally, when I ouput the html5 file, the quiz doesn't work properly. The radio buttons don't appear on screen so when answers are selected the user has no way of knowing their selections have been accepted. Oddly, the quiz is registering answers since when you submit there is a brief flash during which you can see the buttons but they quickly disappear and results are tallied accurately at the end. But the quiz is unusable without user feedback for selections. You can view this performance beginning on the sixth slide (the beginning of the quiz).

Are html5 output files compatible with Learning Management Systems? Is there a way to use the YouTube widget in SWF output files?

How do I embed videos in Muse CC?

Hi
I searched for the answer to this question and read that if I click 'Insert HTML', paste the link and click OK, the video should appear. However, every time I do this the application quits. I'm using a mac and I am trying to embed video from Vimeo.
What I'd really like to do is have several videos in a slide show format.
If anyone is able to give me some advice about why this might be happening / what I need to do, that would be great!
Many Thanks

CS as a marketing practice, its best to upload the videos to a secure website and embed links to the videos in the email.
If however embedding the video is the only way, attaching them to mail is perhaps the way you want to do it. Let me know if this helps.

Embed Video in inDesign and not have Dropbox logos?

Hi,
Is it possible to embed video from a video stored in your Dropbox folder and not have the Dropbox logos appear?

I tried embedding a video into my inDesign document which I have stored in my Dropbox folder. I did this to keep the file size down in my document, but when I embed the video that is in my Dropbox folder, the result is a video within the contained window of my document whcih is great, but it also contains the Dropbox logos at the top and I would love to get rid of the logos. The same thing goes for Youtube videos - when I embed a Youtube video, the whole Youtube page is included in the video window.

Is it possible to embed video from another site in wiki?

every-time i try and add in html code to embed video in the wiki page (not podcasts) it deletes it after i save and nothing happens

Hi,
The current wiki relies on html 4:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
Embed tag is not a standard part of html 4 and is new in html 5. html 4 allows the object tag or the iframe tag to perform the external link function. Both object and iframe need to be added to the wiki whitelist for inclusion in the page html.
iframe creates a separate window that allows you to show the page with the video or rss link that you want to include on the wiki page.
object would show up as an separate window as well but has different issues depending on brower.
I have used iframe with good results as an alternative to uploading data to the wiki page.
HTH,
Harry

How to record a video of Captivate itself?

Hello - how do I record a video of Captivate itself? It doesn't appear as a 'window to record' (Record New Project > Appliction > ..).
Any help? Thanks in advance.
By the way, I am using version 5.

Hello,
I have been creating a lot of Captivate SWF's using 2 instances of Captivate 5 or capturing CP5 with CP4. This is working fine, just needs some editing sometimes for the automatically generated Captions that on some level seem to have strange messages, which you will not have capturing CP5 with CP4. But the capturing process works fine. You can have a look at this video tutorial I published a long time ago (only one in English, mostly create in other languages). This work flow was not possible in Captivate 4, Rick is right:

Embed video youtube in LiveCycle Designer ES

ich habe versucht embed video youtube in Designer ES einzubinden. Leider gibt es da nicht. Ich habe es mir überlegt, HTML-Datei in Designer ES zu importieren. Die Fehlermeldung zeigt an. Vielleicht kann einer von euch helfen das zu lösen.

Was du vorhast ist bislang nicht möglich.
Acrobat / Reader X unterstützen zwar schon XFA 3.3, das es ermöglicht Flash-Dateien in XFA-Formulare einzubetten, aber bislang gibt es noch keine Version des LiveCycle Designer, die diese Funktion unterstützt.
Du wirst auf die nächste Version warten müssen, wann immer die auch veröffentlicht wird.
Youtube-Videos müsstest du dann aber auch immer erst in Flash umwandeln.
