HTML/SWF publish from captivate 8

I had created an project and published it for HTML/SWF, it is working fine in all the browsers and only in Firefox it gives the below error:
Adobe Captivate
This browser does not support some of the content in the file you are trying to view. Use one of the following browsers:
Internet Explorer 9 or later
Safari 5.1 or later
Google Chrome 17 or later
can some one give me solution on this.

Check this post. The message usually is because Firefox doesn't support mp3, hence the message from CP.
You need to make .ogg files and redirect CP to use them if in Firefox, else use the .mp3

So Wat to do? Is there any way to get out as a single swf file from captivate.

Dear friends,
I am beginner in Adobe Captivate. We have a E-learning
project. We are using Dockers as our LMS. Previously we were using
Flash for all. Now we are trying Captivate for better and faster
results. I have few swf files and i inserted al files in Captivate
and i published. So instead of getting single output, am getting
all the swfs, skin swf and html file. Html file is accessing all
swfs and works. But it is not working in Dockers. Single swf will
only work in Dockers. So Wat to do? Is there any way to get out as
a single swf file from captivate. please Help mee.
Thanks
Flashlover

If 'Dockers' cannot handle a .zip file as the content and
instead
requires a single, uncompressed content file, then it is not
SCORM-compliant. The SCORM specification requires the LMS to
handle a
'pif' file (most common is .zip) which contains the lesson
and the
required manifest file. If Dockers doesn't support that then
you can't
do SCORM-compliant content.

Detect end of the .swf file from captivate

Hi,
I've a .swf file sent by our clients. They want to put that .swf file on the webpage. The .swf file is published from captivate.
Now they want to display a submit button on end of the .swf (video). I don't know how to detect end of the video.
Need help...!!!
Thank you,
Himadri

Welcome to our community
Within Captivate you are able to choose different actions to occur when the Captivate movie completes play. Of course if you don't have Captivate and the project file you are pretty much stuck with what you have. If you *DO* have access to the source, you would then configure the end action to be what you like. Perhaps execute some JavaScript, load a different page, etc.
If you don't have access to the source file, you may be better off asking whomever provided the SWF to you to make a small change to the end action. They would then compile a new SWF and provide that to you to use.
You just said a "Submit" button should appear after the video plays. What exactly is this button supposed to do?
Cheers... Rick

Error message when publishing from Captivate 4 to MS Word 2003

Is anyone else getting an error message when publishing from Captivate 4 to MS Word 2003? I tried all 4 types and still get the following:
"An error was encountered while publishing to Word. Verify the following and try again. Word is installed on your system. Word is not busy."
Word is installed on my system and was not in use, so I am not sure why the error. Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance!

Hi there
I use Captivate 4 and it publishes to Word 2003 without issues.
Perhaps it has to do with the way your Word 2003 has been installed? Either that or it's a "rights" issue to be addressed by your IT propellerheads?
Cheers... Rick

Adobe Connect 9 Training Course Video gets resized after being published from Captivate 6

Hello!
I have an FLV that I have published to Adobe Connect 9 from Adobe Captivate 6.
I have set the size of the video to the dimensions that best display the FLV with player controls.
However, when I publish to Adobe Connect 9, the video is resized to a smaller size and looks heavily pixelated.
Is there a way to keep the dimensions and quality without Adobe Connect 9 resizing it?
Here are the settings in Captivate 6:
Here is the first screen for the preferences:
Here is the second screen in Preferences:
Here is what it looks like when viewed from Captivate 6 in a web browser:
Here is what it looks like after it has been published and uploaded into the training in Adobe Acrobat 9:
If you notice in the image above the video is smaller and the CMS logo is very pixelated due to Adobe Connect 9 resizing it.
I am not sure how to keep the dimensions that I have from Captivate 6 and have it reflect after it has been published to Adobe Connect 9.
And is there more functionality that I am not able to access since I am using a 30-Day trial.
Thanks for taking the time to read and assist!
Angelo

You are correct that this is a known issue. There was a fundamental change to the way objects are added to the timeline that came in with Cp6. The result is that objects such as your SWF animations are only loaded at the time they are added to the timeline, and this causes the slide flickering you witness. There's not really a lot you can do to get rid of it other than rebuilding all of your animations to be a single animation that once loaded will continue unabated until finished.

What's the right/best way to publish from Captivate 7 for use in Presenter 9

Just upgraded to captivate 7 and have presenter 9. We are updating some old training courses created using Presenter with demos created in Captivate. I've gotten as far as upgrading the old .cp files to .cpx files and now am ready to publish the files within Captivate so I can import them into Presenter 9.
When I hit 'publish' in captivate there are options to publish as .swf and/or .html5. So I am trying to fugre out what will work best given what I'm trying to do. In presenter I don't see an option to import HTML5, only video files or .swf files, is that correct? in which case i need to publish as .SWF files? Is that the best way to do it in order to be able to import into Presenter 9?
If that's the case, and I need to have .SWF files, how do I choose which Flash Player version I want to use when I publish the files in Captivate? It's got the drop down box containing Flash 10, 10.2 and 11. My instinct would be to use the newest (flash 11). Is that correct? If not, why would I want to use a lower Flash version?
thank you!

Hi,
You can publish to either as .mp4 (Go to publish >Media >Mp4 ) or .swf from Captivate 7. In presenter 9 you do have an option to either import .swf or .mp4 files. See the image below to import these two formats in presenter:

PNG or JPEG images in Flash not showing up after publishing from Captivate

Hello,
I'm new to this forum and relatively new to working with Captivate. Hopefully there is someone here with more experience that can shed some light on a problem I'm having.
I'm creating a presentation using Captivate4 that includes animation sequences that are built in Flash. Some of these Flash movies contain imprted PNG files. The flash movies work fine. They even look fine when previewed in Captivate. However, when I try to publish the entire Captivate presentation as a SWF file I get blank red rectangles wherever the PNG files are supposed to be. I tried using JPEGs instead and I still have the exact same problem.
Any ideas?
Thanks so much
David

Hmm, I may have answered my own question by looking at some other threads. It seems that changing the Publish preferences so that resources are externalize fixes the issue.

Swf. audio from captivate

Hey, new to captivate and annoyed like no other!!!! It seems
the simplest things are insanely hard to do. For example i created
a piece in flash.... and published the swf file. I have the
animations synced to the audio i brought into flash, and when I
bring the swf into captivate, and export the file I lose the audio.
Anyone know how I can push the swf audio through to the output in
captivate??
I'm using captivate v2

I've not experienced this issue. How have you included/synced
the audio in
your Flash piece?

SWFs published from CS6 do not work, but from CS5 they do

I have recently begun learning how to create animations in Adobe Flash. I've been using Flash CS5. After creating my animations, I would embed them in Microsoft Powerpoint as shockwave flash objects. I would then send the powerpoint to my dad through dropbox; everything worked great.
Then I was able to install Flash CS6. I continued saving them as CS5 projects to be consistent. I would still publish them as shockwave objects and embed them on powerpoint like before. On my computer, they all worked fine.
I now have a powerpoint that has a combination of videos from both CS5 and CS6 on different slides (though they're all saved as CS5 files and all embedded into my ppt). When I send the ppt to my dad, however, the newest videos don't play on his computer.
The old ones work fine for him, but the updated animations are shown in the powerpoint as black boxes, and when right-clicked, have the greyed-out text 'Movie not loaded' with no other options. In edit mode (aka when the powerpoint is on the normal, editable view) the old animations look perfectly normal, whereas the new ones are white with a black 'x' across them.
I've scoured the web for answers, but CS6 is so new that nobody else has seemed to come across this problem. I don't know if it's a bug or if I'm doing something wrong. I also don't know if it's a problem with flash, shockwave, or powerpoint.
It doesn't make any sense to me, since the CS6 animations are still saved as CS5 and shouldn't be treated any differently by powerpoint. This is especially true since the animations play on my computer and not his!
Thanks for the help,
Emily

Did you ever solve this one?
Would be nice to know.

Blank browser page when viewing html/swf exported from Indesign

We've created a 'flip book' in Indesign and exported it as a swf and html docs. These docs both view correctly locally, but when uploaded into the same directory on our server and viewed via safari or chrome, they both appear as blank browser pages.
html page is here: http://www.thinktankcd.com/SmartsquareBrochure_030215_test.html
Any idea what we've done wrong?
Indesign CC 2014 OSX10.9.2

Thanks Sumit, but ID didn't create any other resources to go along with the swf and html files. Besides, it doesn't need to; there are no other resources but it still works locally. The swf is a stand alone file, the html just gives access to that file when accessed via a browser.

Swf published from Flash Catalyst not playing in Flash Player

Hi All,
I have 2 issues which I'm not sure may be related or not.
- I've created a project in FC but when I publish it to .swf it does not open in Flash Player. It plays in Chrome but Flash Player 10 gives a blank screen.
- I have FC 5.5 and I want to make the project scale according to the browser size. How can I do this? I have checked the Resize option but when it open in Chrome it just cuts out all that is outside the browser screen area.
Thanks.
Tej

I can not recall the minimum Flash Player that is required for Flash Catalyst. I suspect that your version of Flash Player is too low. Chrome auto-updates to the latest version, so that is why it works in Chrome.
Also, make sure you understand the differences between resizing and scaling. I wrote a blog post on this here: http://chrisgriffith.wordpress.com/2011/06/22/understanding-resizing-and-scaling-in-flash- catalyst/

Published .avi from Captivate is shorter in Adobe Media Encoder

I published 8 slides from Captivate 4 to .avi video format. When I play the .avi in Windows Media Player, it works great. I'm using Adobe Media Encoder to convert it to .flv file to use in my Flash project. When I import the .avi to AME, it's shorter and the audio on the last slide is cut off. I tried inserting a duplicate slide with silent audio in Captivate to extend the duration by 10 seconds. Still, the .avi is 2:57 in length and when I import it to AME it's 2:47. It makes no difference if I extend the last silent slide to even 25 seconds.
Is this an issue with AME or with Captivate 4? How do I fix it?
Thank you!

Here's the info I can provide at this time:
Yes, it seems that this only affects .avi files published from Captivate. Other .avi files reflect the correct length when imported to AME.
Using AME CS4 4.2.0.006.
Using Captivate CS4 4.0.0.1596.
Yes, it happens with every .avi file published from Captivate. I've tried the following and still the last slide (#8) was cut off at the end including its audio:
extended last slide (#8) for more than a minute after the audio stops
extended the audio on the last slide (#8) by inserting silence for additional 30 seconds
added another slide (#9) after the last slide
added another slide (#9) after the last slide with 30 seconds of silent audio
I did find a temporary solution, however. I added a transparent object (rectangle) a few seconds after the audio ended on slide 8 and when I published to .avi, Captivate recognized the added object and published the video to include the added animation.
You may download a zipped file containing the Captivate project and the published .avi from here:

Thank you,

Remove default java from Captivate HTML output

Hi there
i have noticed that when i publish my captivate to SWF the HTMl contains some javascript code that redirects my browser to the Adobe site to download the flash player - the code is :
<script type="text/javascript">
       var so = new SWFObject("OrgHistory_demo_2.swf", "Captivate", "979", "619", "8", "#CCCCCC");
        so.addParam("quality", "high");
        so.addParam("name", "Captivate");
        so.addParam("id", "Captivate");
        so.addParam("wmode", "window");
        so.addParam("bgcolor","#F5F4F1");
        so.addParam("menu", "false");
        so.addVariable("variable1", "value1");
        so.setAttribute("redirectUrl", "http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash");
        so.write("CaptivateContent");
    </script>
Is there somewhere in captivate that i can disable this or prevent it from inserting this? As i now need to remove it from every HTML page Captivate creates and this is quite time consuming !
Any suggestions greatly aprpeciated !
Thanks
Deb

Hi there
Okay, I have to ask.
What about that line do you find offensive? I believe it's there only for the purpose of directing the user to a place where they may download the Flash player if the code finds it cannot play the Captivate because it's not installed. Otherwise, it does absolutely nothing and the user isn't aware it's even there.
Waiting with bated breath... Rick

Can't play published projects(*.htm) from Captivate 5

Hi,
I'm trying now a few days already to publish my Captivate 5 projects. Usually I used the *.htm format, but since my colleagues said that they can't open them, I tried it with the *.exe or *.app formats too. Sometimes it works sometimes nothing at all.
With the *.htm files, the Adobe Flash Player Security Window comes up, but neither clicking "Settings" nor "Ok" is working. The movies starts for 1 sec and disappears immediately after.
I tried different settings while publishing, Flash Player settings, changed the "SWF size and Quality settings" (*.swf is also not working by the way), used different browsers, but nothing really worked.
Any ideas how I can solve that? It's really something I need to get fixed soon :-(
Thanks in advance
Svenja

Hi,
Double clicking on the '*.swf' file plays the file properly? Can you please share the information on which OS, browser and in Flash player version you are facing the Issue (.htm issue). Can you please confirm that on the colleague’s machine, Flash player ActiveX/Plugin is installed correctly and the location from where they are trying to open the file(.htm) is added as a Flash player trusted location.
What is the error message you are getting when you are trying to Open the *.exe File?.
To fix some 'Publish to .Exe' issues a patch was released. So you can try Publishing to Exe after installing the patch. The details about the patch are blogged here: http://blogs.adobe.com/captivate/2010/08/unable-to-open-exe-files-published-from-adobe-cap tivate-5.html
