Is there a way to slow down the playback of video in Captivate 5?

I just made several recordings (FMR) and would like to slow them down for the viewer. The video was actually of someone else's software demo that moved way too fast. On the Captivate skin there is "2x" to move the video twice as fast, but no "1/2x". Is there another way to slow down the video?
Thank you!

No. Not there. Honest.

Any way to slow down the automatic ambient light adjustments

Is there any way to slow down the automatic ambient light adjustments? My local Starbucks has point-source lighting and as I move my head to the right or left my monitor grows brighter and dimmer. I don't want to turn it off completely because I appreciate the function, I just wish it could be a bit less aggressive.

Sorry I do not have an answer for you but I have noticed the exact same problem in other situations... Ever since they moved the light sensor from beneath the speaker grille to the top of the monitor I have not been enjoying the screen brightness auto adjustment feature as much as I feel it takes a light measurement from in front of the computer not ABOVE it (which is generally where the light is consistently coming from)

How can I slow down the playback speed of selected parts of a captivate video?

Hi everybody,
I'm pretty new to Captivate and although it offers some great tools, there is something that I just can't get to work:
I'm creating a video tutorial about how to use a website i'm working with so I've tried using "Automatic" ("Demo" mode chosen) recording option which is recommended for this type of video. However, the video recorded has a different playback speed than the amount of time I recorded. This means that some of the slides have a quicker playback speed than the way I recorded, thereby not leaving enough time to show the given feature.
The recording mode with the most "true" playback was "Full motion". However, I would still like to be able to slow down selected parts of the video, but can only find guides on how to slow down the entire presentation.
Can you please advise me on how to slow down only selected parts of the project? If this is not possible in Captivate, please advise me on which video editing software (where you can slow down the playback speed on selected parts of the video) is compatible with Captivate 5?
Thanks!

Thank you. Andrew Kramer's Video Copilot video, which I somehow managed to miss, was very helpful.
I had a 79 second clip which I precomposed and enabled time remapping. But I have 12 places where I need to slow down the layer. After a while, I was runing out of room to add more keyframes using the method promoted in many videos and instruction sites (grab the last two keyframes, including the end frame, and drag).
In reality, you can add keyframes wherever you like and you can adjust them however works best within the existing timeline without messing with the duration, etc.
Much appreciated.

Is there a way to slow down play speed itunes?

Hello. I have recorded some interviews on a pocket voice recording and uploaded them into iTunes on my G5 computer.
In order to transcribe the recordings efficiently, I want to slow down the play speed.
Is there a way to do that?
Thanks, Stuart

Is there a way to slow down all clips by 75%

I am trying to slow down all the clips in a project to 75% (Sports footage). There seems to be a way to do this individually but no way to do it across all clips. Is there? if not, sure would like to see this in the next version.

Is there a way to scale down the movement of a parented object, while keeping it on the same path as the parent?

I have three elements in my comp--a foreground element, a mediumground element (a tree), and a background element (the sky). I want to parent
the medium and background elements to the path of the foreground element--but since they are farther away form the camera, they would not move
as much as the foreground layer. Is there a way to parent these two layers to the foreground element, and then scale back the percentage of their movement?

I think you are making this much too difficult. If you have foreground, middle ground, and background layers make them all 3-D and arrange them in 3-D space then add a camera and move the camera. Your parallax shift will be automatic and perfect if you arrange the layers properly.
As you move the layers in z space you can scale them up so your composition looks right. You can't even use a simple expression to tie the distance of the layer to the camera to automatically fix the scale.
If you want to just move a layer on the x axis half as far as the foreground layer moves in x then the expression would look like this:
mlx = thisComp.layer("master").position[0];
sf = .5 // scale factor;
nx = mlx * sf;
[value[0] + nx, value[1]]
In English this expression says mlx equals the master layer x value
The scale factor (sf) is 50% experssed as a decimal
The new x value (nx) is equal to the master layer x position times the scale factor
Then you just write an array for the original x value plus the new x value and take the existing y value from this layer.
This expression gives you the opportunity to keyframe both the X and Y position of the layer. If I wasn't typing this post on my phone I would've taken the time to subtract the master layer X and Y position from Half of the comp height and width so the following layer would not have to be brought back into position after writing the expression.

Is there a way to track down the cause of crashes in SAFARI?

Not long ago I was able to eliminate one type of crash I had been having in SAFARI by following a suggestion made in this forum. Those crashes, however, were of the type that generated a 'crash report.' So they left a kind of 'paper trail' as to what was causing them.
More recently I have been having frequent crashes that don't result in such reports. These crashes occur apparently randomly when I mouseclick on a link. The spinning beach ball appears on-screen and never leaves.
Is there a way to find out exactly what is causing these crashes?
Thanks.

Hello Michael:
I have not yet seen a
good approach to using that information (short of
deleting the account).
better search some yourself Barry <G>
if something runs fine in another account - one can isolate the cause to one of the plist files in the main acct Home/Library/Preferences/ or possibly an add-on in Home/Library/Internet Pug-Ins or ...Input Managers for example.
If there is the same problem in the new acct - you can discount anything with the main acct user library - plists,caches,plugins,input managers, the whole lot.
A useful tool is Console - found in Applications/Utilities/ keep it running while the 'problem' in question crops up & see if any messages pop up in either the system log or console log. Sometimes these will point straight at the problem area, other times no help at all.

HP Pavillion p6-2213er started to slow down (the mouse, web, video and games)

My HP Pavillion p6-2213er which is 1-year old with pre-installed Windows 7 (64) started to slow down/stuck today.
The mouse, internet pages, movies and games started to work slow. Sorry, don't know the right English for it, but it looks like this: ---x---x---x (and normally it is xxxxxxxxxxxxx)
I made the full scanning for viruses: none. It's funny, but the problem started the next day after I installed anti-virus. Tried to delet the anti-virus. Didn't help. Task manager shows that none of the applications use much memory. There are no programs that could cause this running. I turned off torrent program. Restarted my pc several times, no result. Help? What the problem could be? I've had 3 different pc and never had that problem.
I've also had been seeing for few months that message about Tages Protection driver that was turned off due to its incompatibility with the system. Tried to reinstall it thru downloading the setup file from tagesprotection.com, but it just won't start. Can't delete it either, cause can't find it. But this can't be the cause of slowness, can it?

Today I also had BSoD for the 1st time. It happened twice as I was watching a video downloaded from the internet. Could it be somehow connected to what I experienced before?

When I am talking on the phone, is there a way to shut off the screen so my face does not press buttons? I am using an Iphone 4.

When I am talking on the phone, is there a way to shut down the screen so that my face does not touch the buttons?

It is supposed to shut off on its own. Some users have reported cases or screen covers that have interfered with the proper functioning of the proximity sensor. If you've removed those and cleaned the screen and still have the same problem you may have a defective proximity sensor. You may find more information by doing an internet search for "iphone proximity sensor."

If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copy of the track and try redownloading a fresh one. See the following document for instructions:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.

Is there a way to speed up the pace of the video (watch in fast-forward) I am watching?

I am watching a class lesson that is 3 hours long and my teacher talks extremely slow. Is there a way to speed up the pace of my video? I know on some video players you can watch a video in 1.5, 2.0, 2.5 etc. levels of fast forward.

Can you slow down a voicemail you are listening to? I can't understand what someone said to me because they spoke too fast. I just want to know how to slow down the voicemail so I can understand her if it's possible.

How can you slow down a voicemail you are listening to? Someone sent me a voicemail and they spoke way too fast for me to understand them. I want to know how to slow down the voicemail so I can understand them if that is possible.

   I have to say, this is so weird because it's actually become this way in the past week maybe, and I'm sure me saying this here will be disputed, ridiculed and belittled, and that's absolutely fair, but I've got to say it... up until a few days ago, my iTunes sync/backup area really would keep more than one backup for my one, single iPhone. They were all timed and dated with a drop-down menu (which appeared if I clicked the restore button) to choose which one I wanted to roll back to, for example. Sure, I'd read about the three backups thing etc. etc. and perhaps I got that wrong or misunderstood, but I can honestly say, I only ever had at the most two backups, that I could drop-down and choose to restore from. They were there. Same iPhone. Different dates.
   At the time, when this seemed to be the case, the backing-up process took quite a while. I would leave it to progress while I went and made a cup of tea, come back and it still wasn't finished running. So, not really AGES, but a little while.
   Now, when I perform a backup, the progress bar almost shoots across to a finish. I'll 'fess up... that worries me most of all. I can live without the luxury of a menu of backups... but if it does it once, I'd like to be sure it does it at all.
Much more importantly though, thank you for your replies so far.
Any further input, even if it's to belittle or shame is totally welcome. I'd like to understand this a bit more.
Thanks again.
