PDF To Video for Training

Ok... I know silly question.
I have a multi-page pdf that I need to creat a movie of by basically having the ability to have a page up and lay an audio track of instruction under it.
I am not sure if imovie is my best tool, but I don't see a quick way of getting the pdf into imovie.
Any suggestions?

Craig,
The only place that you are likely to not have thumbnails is Windows Explorer. Going back some OS's, there was the psicon.dll, that did read the preview of a PSD. Do not recall the exact chronology, but psicon.dll was removed. For a few versions, people basically passed it around to get thumbnails back. Then, and maybe it was Vista (?), that the old psicon.dll ceased to work.
In all Adobe browsers, you will have the thumbs, as well as in PrPro. Most image cataloging programs, like ThumbsPlus, will have no issues IIRC, IrfanView even displays the previews for PSD's. It is only in Windows Explorer, with Thumbnail View turned on, where you will get the PS icon.
I'll be one happy camper, if I can get you to use Photoshop... Nah, here it is the best tool for the job. AI can open the PDF's, but you'd still want to Rasterize them, and PS would be the ticket for the best results, so it's just easier to start and end there.
Now, unless you have some individual operations to perform, I'd just write an Action to Open the PDF's, then Save_As .PSD's. You can still add some "stuff," like sizing, etc.. When done with your Action, just go to File>Automate (syntax might have changed in CS4), then set your Source Folder to the location of the PDF's, your Destination Folder to suit, any file name changes, and make sure that your Action is chosen for the operation. You can by-pass the Open command, if you do not need to see this operation being done, and can also set your Edit Preferences>Save to the exact method of handling Backward Compatibility, so you will have zero dialog screens to deal with. Go get a cup of coffee, and the PSD's will be waiting for you to Import.
Good luck,
Hunt

Adobe Connect training video for the Learner and their engagement in virtual sessions

I am looking for a short Adobe Connect video on the Learners' role in virtual collaboration, communication and their engagement in virtual sessions: their use of the tools, expectations, etc. A training video for the virtual learner.

I am currently having the same issue, the only difference is that I am publishing Captivate projects into Connect courses/curriculums. The Captivate (v5) projects are basically a demo and I want the attendee to receive credit for viewing the demo after the demo window closes (the setting at the end of last slide). I have tried to enable/disabe the Quiz reporting along with other settings with no luck. After the demo closes I receive a pause icon and I want a green check mark. Any assistance would be GREATLY appreciated. Thank you.

When will training videos for creative cloud be updated?

Please let us know when new videos will be posted?
I will need good videos for new people on my team.
In general, videos (that as of a few days ago were available through the "Training" link from the Creative Cloud) are old and out of date. They are still advertised in a link to the right as "New Tutorial Videos."
-All videos are for previous interface
Videos with entirely unusable information?
"Recovering Deleted Files in Creative Cloud"
"Selecting, Moving, and Deleting Files in Creative Cloud"
Videos that are mostly accurate, though interface remains different:
"Managing Individual Creative Files in Creative Cloud"
"Sharing and Downloading Files in Creative Cloud"
I have not seen any answers on this topic. Let me know if they already exist.
There were no results for when will training videos for creative cloud be updated?

SHORT FILM - wiki
A short film is any film not long enough to be considered a feature film. No consensus exists as to where that boundary is drawn: the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences defines a short film as "an original motion picture that has a running time of 40 minutes or less, including all credits".

PDF or HTML for mobile Technical Documentation and Newsletters

Hi,
I've been reviewing the pros and cons for PDF and HTML for mobile technical documentation and newsletters and wanted to get your honest thoughts on this.
Here's the scenario:
I need to create mobile technical documenation and newsletters that are interactive, i.e. video, commenting/annotating, links, forms, etc.
Given how the mobile publishing market is rapidly evolving, what is the most practical format, (with minimum format issues) to use for both short term and long term? PDF or HTML? Why?
Based on your choice, which format would you use for non-interactive documents that offers the most creative options and usability? Why?
Paul

Hyper Text Markup Language ( HTML ) is going to work better. Mainly because the way mobile is setup, the interface has to conform to the device and with the other elements coded into the interface, HTML is far better. You keep referring to usability, so even in non-interactive scenarios in mobile documentation, you're better off using HTML.

How do I create/host interactive articles with embedded video for use in browsers?

I'm seeking a little guidance -
How do I create/host interactive articles with embedded video for use in browsers?
The aim is to bring together video, design, images and writing in one place. A little like Born Presents, but very accessible and user friendly.
I'm happy using InDesign but want to create interactive articles / magazines that have embeded video files as required. I've been looking at .SWF files but I've come unstuck.
I want people to view the articles via a blog, ideally with them opening in a lightbox style viewer. It's not intended for tablet viewing and people should be able to view and interact with the files with little effort on their part.
I think I know how to create these files within InDesign, but I'm not so hot on web design and I'm not sure how to host these online. Does this start coming into the realms of Flash?
If anyone could point in the right direction I'd really appreciate it - Thank you in advance.

PDF is one thing. Folios for DPS is another. There is a little bit of

How to play the pdf embedded video on firefox

I embed video into pdf quite often, if I want everyone with Acrobat reader version earlier than 9 (6,7,8) can open it, I have to chose "Create legacy multimedia content..." when I embed the video. The problem is, when I make the pdf with Mac, usually I use mp4 video, but a lot of PC's can not open it because they don't have the codec (they have to install it first); but if I embed it with wmv, Mac users can not open it. Also the latest Firefox browser doesn't have the plug-ins for the new pdf, thus can not play the embedded video. Anyone can help? Many thanks...

Hi Philips,
Thanks for your input, but that's not the problem. I've got Flip4Mac already installed, and I have quicktime pro, so no problem for my intel based Mac running WMV under quicktime.
The problem is, I can not play the PDF embedded video WITHIN FIREFOX / SAFARI browser. Just found out that they only have plug-ins for viewing pdf files, not with embedded video.
Thanks anyway.
Adobe has not had a PDFPlugin for Mozilla Products Since OS 9. I have put in a bug about it at least once every year.
There is a PDF Browser Plugin by Shubert of Germany, that will view PDF's. Now Safari will work with the Acrobat PDFViewer Plugin and any other Browsers using Webkit including iCab. You can set SeaMonkey FireFox, Camino, to use the Adobe Reader or even Acrobat rather than a plugin.
It's sad and funny at the same time. Adobe until Acrobat came out was just a Font provider. And Adobe got started with other products on the Mac, because mac users were a little more bold and daring and would try out new technology. Acrobat on PC (Widows/DOS) wasn't accepted for another two years. Then when then got a foot in the door in the Windows world, they all but abandoned the Mac Platform.
They refuse to fix crash and performance issues on Mac for Flash. One reason why Jobs has took the stance he has about Flash on the iPad/iPhone.
But they are not the only ones. Intuit (Quicken) got started on Mac first. Then when they got toe hold in PC world they have been shafting Mac Users every since.

Where to source MPEG movie files for training?

Hello All,
I'm wanting to train-up on iMovie HD 6 editing ahead of a documentary project I've been asked to produce for an Australian environmental education foundation in a couple of weeks.
My past production experience is restricted to 16mm and SVHV in the early 1990's.
So I bought the latest version of iLife/iMovie HD 6 hoping to assess it's post-production capabilities and mine to understand them.
But I found there was no tutorial footage, clips or clip sequences to work with for training. I've sinced searched the internet for such material but was surprised to find nothing. Meanwhile I'm playing with stills.
As I won't have the camera until a few days before the shoot, I'm losing sleep for not being able to learn and practice my iMovie's postproduction skills.
Does anyone have any footage, clips or clip sequences that could assist me?
Also, what are the best tutorial aids for this program you've found?
Great to discover this forum!

Pdf or video

What is the better way to export a slidehow in lightroom 4, pdf or video?

Dave, everything you've stated is incorrect or misleading except for video file support. I'll grant you the Slideshow module is overdue for some useful updates, but at least video files are now supported in LR5.
Jim Hess has provided useful information concerning LR's Slideshow PDF and video output. If your intent is to use the LR Slideshow images in another application then simply choose 'Export JPEG Slideshow' from inside the Slideshow module. The images are properly color managed and exported with sRGB color profile assigned. This allows you to add captions and other information to each image from inside LR using metadata. I use Cyberlink PowerDirector video software with LR 1080p slideshow JPEG exports, which I burn to a standard 4.7 DVD+R disc in AVCHD format for playback on any Blu-ray player. YES, it does work and a Blu-ray burner and Blu-ray discs are NOT required. You can fit up to 500 images with about 30 minutes of playback time. Who'd want a slideshow longer than that and the images look superb on my 52" HDTV.

Usage of iTunes U for Training

Hello everyone,
is it possible to leverage iTunes U for training purposes without necessarily being a teacher at a school ?
I understand that I could also go and start creating a video podcast, an eBook, ... but that is the advantage of itunes U by being able to combine all the different content type.
Is it possible for me as a non-teacher to leverage iTunes U and create content ?
Is it possible to "price" content ?
thanks

Video-based training and Captivate

I'm new to Captivate. My company focuses on film production
and we have been asked to create video-based training modules for a
large customer. We do all of our production work in Final Cut and
then we transcode videos to Flash (.flv).
We intend to create online courses that are video-based ( we
will add audio voiceovers) plus we will want to add still images
with audio and text (assessments, additional content, etc.).
Finally, we will need to upload our modules into a tier 1 LMS
(Saba, SumTotal, Oracle iLearning, etc.).
Is Captivate the tool for us?

Overall, Captivate is probably a good choice for you,
especially if you're already publishing your materials as FLV.
That said, you should probably be aware of the following when
using Captivate in the manner you've described:
1) Per some recent forum posts, a few folks are having
trouble getting FLV files to play all the way through. The video is
being cut off at the end for some reason. I suspect it's a case of
user error when configuring the slide timing, but you might want to
do a search of the forums and see if those folks ever got things
resolved.
2) Audio seems to be hit or miss in Captivate. Some folks
have problems, others have none. It seems mostly to do with how the
audio is brought into Captivate (recorded directly in the product
vs brought in as externally-recorded WAV or MP3 files) and where it
is placed (inserted at the slide level, or attached to a specific
button, such as a "Play Audio" button. I don't use audio in my
projects so I can't comment on the actual details, but again, a
search of the forums might be helpful.
3) Captivate publishes FLV files to the web as external files
that are dynamically loaded when the content is accessed. This
could potentially be a problem if the LMS doesn't allow a SCO to
consist of more than one file (seems unlikely, but worth mentioning
just in case).
4) Captivate offers a preloader that ensures enough of the
movie has downloaded prior to starting playback (and the preload
percentage is customizable if you own Flash). However, I don't know
if the preloader takes embedded videos into account, which could
impact your user experience if your movies are big and take a long
time to download.
5) Captivate advertises compatibility with SCORM-compliant
LMS products, but the published files often require tweaking to
work with a particular LMS. The forums will be helpful in this
regard, but there may also be some trial-and-error finding the
exact changes you need to make to support your specific LMS.
6) Captivate does not support multi-SCO SCORM manifests. If
you plan on deploying a multi-SCO course via SCORM, you'll need to
use a 3rd-party tool to create the manifest file. There's a number
of free and commercial products available that support both SCORM
1.2 and SCORM 1.3 (2004). A fairly comprehensive list can be found
here:
http://adlcommunity.net/mod/data/view.php?id=201
Hopefully, other folks will chime in and offer assurances for
some of the issues raised above, but those are the main issues that
I've seen in the Captivate forums that might affect you.

Enabling Motion Detection on 2621V: "Video for other platform/os" error

Team,
trying to get motion detection on my CIVS 2621V enabled. Running Firmware Version: V4.4.2-2
I always get the Video for Other Platforms error not matter which browser that I am using or different systems.
Searched around and found some posts from some COTS video surveillance systems from Cisco running into the same issue but nothing here.

It's likely you'll need a much older version of IE in order to set this up natively. I believe the original user guide for the 2621 actually called for IE 6 on Windows XP.
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/security/physical_security/video_surveillance/ip_camera/2621/user_guide/2621ug.pdf
... although I seem to recall doing this with something as recent as IE 8 without issue.
I actually have to keep a VM and an old XP workstation with VNC on it to work with some of the much older hardware :-S
