Flash animation playing way to fast in slides

Hello all,
I imported a flash AS3 annimation in captivate 8, but the animaton plays faster than it should. Is there anyway that i could get it to the normal speed as when i play it in a flash palyer ?
thanks in advance.

Default speed in Captivate is 30FPS, check the framerate of your SWF animation, probably it is lower (default is 24fps). Either you change the framerate of the Flash animation up to 30, or you lower the framerate in Captivate to the same value as the animation before publishing. You can find the framerate in Preferences, Project, Publish Settings

  • How to Prevent Flash Animation Playing?

    I have a flash animation that plays automatically when the user lands on the homepage of my site. It's part of the header, so it's present on every subsequent page of the site as well. However, I would like it to NOT play on the other pages. It should be visible, but only display the first frame or so of the animation, rather than playing automatically on every page.
    How do I stipulate that in the code? Is there a line I can add somewhere?
    Thanks for any help.

    the easiest thing to do, is to create two different swfs.  one for the home page (that you've already made) and one for the other pages which will be the same as the one you have now except you want to add a stop() to the swf's first frame.

  • Make a Flash animation play only when it scrolls into view

    I am designing a very long page. There will be a flash animation at the bottom of the page. I want this animation to play only when the user scrolls down and this flash object comes into view. How do I do this? I am quite familiar with flash and actionscript, so I just need some pointers.
    I have seen that this is already being used for advertisements. If you visit www.amazon.com, there are ads that appear far below on the page. These ads play only when you scroll down and the ad appears within the browser window. This happens on many other sites as well.
    Many popular sites also use something like this. On CNN, try opening a new tab that loads a flash video. The video begins to play only when you actually go to that tab. Until you open the tab and the contents become visible in your browser window, the video doesn't start. How is this done?
    Thanks in advance,
      Kumar

    Hmmm ... It looks like Amazon doesn't always run ads. I will give another example.
    Take a look at http://digg.com/
    There is a 300x250 ad at the top of the right-column. Ignore that.
    In addition, there is a second 300x250 ad halfway down the page in the right column.
    This second 300x250 ad appears when you scroll down.
    The interesting thing is that the ad plays from the beginning when you first see it after scrolling down!
    Most flash ads run for 15 seconds. After that the animation stops. When you see this second 300x250 ad, you will find it at the beginning of its 15 second animation. It plays from the beginning even if you wait for some time before scrolling down. This means that the ad is waiting for you to scroll down before it begins to play.
    How is this done?
    Thanks.

  • Red screen appears when Flash animation plays inside Captivate

    Has anyone experienced this problem? A Flash animation inserted into Captivate displays a red screen briefly when the animation plays. I've never had this happen before.
    Ideas?

  • IMovie import plays WAY TOO FAST!

    I am importing video from a DV (Sony DCR-HC96) straight into iMovie. The transition is smooth and recorded content plays in normal time from DV camera. During transition, the video appears in normal speed on the Mac.
    However, when the import is completed -- and I try and PLAY the video on my Mac (MacBook Pro), the speed of the movie is SCREAMING FAST (16x-20x too fast.)
    Anybody feeling smart about this?
    Would really(!) appreciate your help....

    Welcome to iMovie Discussions.
    When you say "transition" I think you mean "import" ..the process of passing the video from the camcorder into iMovie. (..A "transition" is generally something which you apply in iMovie; a means of changing from one video clip to another via a 'cross-fade' or a 'dissolve', etc..)
    The specifications for this camera, on Sony's page (click on that blue link) and on Amazon's page both mention..
    "..Progressive Shutter System
    A mechanical shutter system that provides progressive scan performance while utilizing an interlaced scanning system. Digital still images will be sharp and clear with excellent definition."
    If you've shot your movie(s) using progressive recording (..using a shutter speed marked 'p', such as '30p' or '24p'..) then iMovie may play it back faster than normal. This is because iMovie normally expects DV to consist of two 'interlaced' fields of video (two sets of lines which each make up half-a-picture) instead of single full frames of video.
    (..On the other hand, the "progressive" in the specifications may refer only to still photos; it's not easy to tell from the descriptions whether or not the video may be shot as progressive, too..)
    If it's NOT playing fast because you've shot progressive video ('p') instead of interlaced video ('i'), then I can't think of a reason just now why it'd be playing fast ..sorry.

  • Captivate 3 Inserted swf animations play fine but display on slide as very small

    Using Captivate 3 build 589.
    Opening an existing cp file. Each slide has a swf file on it, and an audio clip.
    When I select a slide to edit it, the animation no longer appears as taking up the entire slide size of 800 x 600.
    I need to add some highlight boxes on top of the animation, but because the slide displays the animation as very small, it's just a guessing game.
    This didn't used to happen when I opened this project file--six months ago.
    By the way, it publishes just fine--animation is correct size.
    It's an 800x600 animation to begin with.
    Any answers?

    Thanks Rick. Yep, that last item on the list was the source of the problem.
    You might want to revise your description. Users no longer have to go back to an older version of Flash Player. The newest version has the fix in it now.
    Users are advised to first uninstall Flash Player using the Adobe-provided uninstall_flash_player.exe.  Get it at http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html.
    Close all other windows before running uninstall_flash_player.exe.
    When it is complete, restart your computer. Then when you first open Captivate, you are redirected to http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ to download the latest Flash Player. The version that fixed the issue for me is 10.1.82.76.
    Rick's my hero. I know I had heard about what caused this problem--but I couldn't remember what it was!
    Thanks again!!

  • Quicktime .mov... Audio plays way too fast.

    I have a Quicktime video http://www.plymouthbrethren.org/flash/MacDmemo2-2-320x240x30FPS.mov
    which plays the Audio portion like Alvin and the Chipmunks. The original was created in Adobe Premiere Elements @ 29.xxx FPS, under Windows XP Pro. (It did the SAME thing, BTW, when I encoded it at 15 FPS.
    I have no idea why the video appears OK on this, but the sound is all sped up.
    Your help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks
    -Andrew

    Please help!
    I have this same audio playback always sounds like Alvin & the chipmunks, even on TV episodes, songs I download or upload, but not in game play.
    I've run the Windows troubleshooter, dxdiag, and searched for this on iTunes and Quicktime websites and manuals.
    Does anyone have a clue what is wrong and what is needed?

  • AVCHD clips imported in FCE play way too fast.

    Hi there,
    I am a video newbie, I am trying to import AVCHD clips from an SDHC card into FCE using log and transfer method. All is well until I start working on the clip in the viewer, the clip is for sure playing at 2X speed, I am not sure why. It might be a simple solution, but I sure can not find a solution. The clips I am testing with were shot on a Lumix TS-1. Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Labib

    From memory AVCHD, I can't remember the exact settings as far as frame rate and such, I can sure check it when I get back home. Do I have to set the frame rate and such into the capture preferences before I import?
    Thanks for the reply

  • Zen Xtra 60gb- Plays songs too fast

    Hi guys. There are no EAX special environments running at higher speeds or anything, but every song plays too fast. When I look at the counter for each song and put it alongside a stopwatch or other timing device, the songs are playing way too fast.

    Nope, longstanding bug as simply having been around for a while. It's a bizarre one though.
    I don't have an Xtra so I can't test (hopefully someone else can) but I'll check my Micro.
    The key thing here is do you know if the music itself is actually accelerated? Or is it just the timer that's off?

  • Flash animation in hidden layer

    I have created a page with a hidden layer which contains a
    Flash animation. The Flash animation plays and in the end it should
    call another page which it does. As long as the layer is hidden it
    should do nothing but when the layer becomes visible it should play
    it's content and get the page. This works fine in IE but in Firefox
    the animation starts playing immediately and gets the page even
    though it's hidden. Can anyone help me out here?
    Thanks in advance!
    Robin Meeuwsen

    Hi Robin,
    Except for the sarcasm, I do agree with Alan and Bonnie
    - Don't see a hidden layer and the animation plays as soon as
    you open the page.
    If you try the flash forums, they may have some advanced
    action scripting which would maybe let you achieve what you want -
    the movie should play only when the layer is visible.
    In my opinion, some user interaction or external trigger
    would be required with the flash movie (not the layer/html content)
    to trigger a change - make the movie stop or make it play.
    A suggestion for you-
    You need to apply the fix for active content so the flash
    movie doesn't show an alert "click to activate and use this
    control". Incase you're using dreamweaver8, if you update to 8.0.2,
    the fix comes with the update. The update is available on the Adobe
    site.

  • Flash animations not playing in Captivate 5.5

    When I import a swf from Camtasia 5 into Captivate 5.5, it plays when I "play slide," but not when I play "project" or "from this slide." So.... I saved it as a flv. It plays... if I click the play button, but that's not what I want.
    I've used this technique many times before over the years with no problem. I create an animation in PowerPoint, record it with Camtasia, and import it into Captivate. I need to be able to do it in this version.
    What has gone wrong? Thanks for any suggestions!!

    If your AS2 file is working fine, chalk it up to luck and buy a lottery ticket.  Most users are NOT going to be as fortunate.  Remember where you placed it in your project though, because if you ever start seeing this project go into spasms and flicker like it was having a fit, the quickest solution will probably be to get rid of this AS2 component.
    As for your other issue with the AS3 file, there may be a number of possibilities. My first guess is that your SWF is probably set up as a symbol in the Flash file and the animation is buried inside that symbol.  Due to the way Captivate 5x loads SWFs now, the animation may actually be playing in the background before you reach its slide and that means it will have finished playing by the time you get to where you want it to play. 
    If you want to test this theory, you'll need access to the original FLA file used to create this animation.  Try placing some piece of marker text on the final frame of the animation along with a stop(); action.  Then reinsert into your Captivate project.  If this results in you seeing the marker text on your slide at runtime, then it means the animation has completed playing before you got there.
    If this is the issue, try taking the animation out of the Symbol and placing it all on the main timeline of the Flash file.  Then republish and insert back into your Captivate project.

    wouldn't it make more sense that a flashtard is someone who
    just generally sucks at flash and asks idiotic questions?
    anyway, so i pretty much got the banner done - but i'm stuck
    on one problem. I made a motion clip of a heart, and i want the
    heart to fall from top to bottom, following a squiggly motion
    guide, and to rotate 1/4 turn on the way. I got it as far as
    following the motion guide, but when i try to select the instance
    in the first frame and rotate it, shouldn't the motion tween make
    it appear to slowly rotate, rather than stay put then rotate 1/4
    turn at the last frame? When I select the clip and play around with
    alpha and stuff, that works fine. What the heck?

  • Need help with flash animation and jump to slide

    I have been researching for days on how to build a menu in
    flash 8 that has links to jump to a slide later in the captivate
    lesson.
    The goal:
    I want to have a tab - when clicked on - opens up and shows a
    table of contents. Click on an item and it will jump to that slide.
    Method:
    I used flash 8 to build a tab and pop up menu. Works great.
    But how do I make the buttons or links to jump to slide?
    Is it possible to:
    * - use a roll over image in captivate - pause image and
    click on a button to pop over to the slide - no flash menus...just
    action script to pause and allow clicking.
    * - use a FS Command script from inside the captivate movie
    - java call in button proprieties.
    * - write the menu in flash - use action script to say "on
    release - jump to slide" or "on release - jump to frame" - I have a
    frame counter that I can find the frame number of the slide - but
    how would you get the script to work.
    Please Help -
    Flash not a good friend of mine - so any time I can avoid --
    is great...but it is what it is - i do anything to get it to work.
    Thank you in advance for your help and I really look forward
    to your thoughts.
    Regards -
    Vince

    Hi
    I didn't understand a few things here.
    1. Are you trying these things using Adobe Presenter or this is just plain Powerpoint you are talking about?
    2. Are you trying to view the output on the Slide show or presenter output
    If you are doing it for PowerPoint slide show, try setting the animations using with previous and after previous
    1. first insert the video. Set it to play automatically
    2. Insert the first text box. Apply animation on it saying "with Previous". This will make the animation play as soon as the video starts. If you want some delay apply some delay for the animation in the animation pane, such that the animation appears when the video has content sound
    3. For the remaining text boxes apply animations as "after Previous". This will make the animations play after the previous animation has completed.
    4. Now all you have to do is applay delay to the animations to adjust them as and how you want
    Hope this is what you wanted to achieve
    Thanks
    Mahesh
