Slide with no audio playing audio

I'm using Captive 4. My intro slide has no audio, yet when I publish and view the SWF, it plays two key clicks. I set that slide to stop the background audio (even though there is none) and I still hear the clicks. Any help with getting this to stop would be appreciated!

WHen you import video to iPhoto all it does is catalogue and store it. When you go to play it that iPhoto passes the video on to QuickTime Player. SO, my guess is that you're missing a codec for that QuickTime player. Post on the QuickTime forum for more.

Advance to slide with video already playing

A client wants to be able to advance to a slide with the video already playing, this is for a live presentation, normally done by rolling in video from tape and using switcher to cross fade from text to moving video.
Any solutions would be appreciated
Thanks

Welcome to the discussions, Magneticone.
If all you want is the equivalent of a crossfade, it can be accomplished quite easily.
In Keynote, video can play behind other objects, and can be set to play immediately upon slide transition. These two features allow you to emulate a cross-fade.
Set up the first slide in its final state, and take a screenshot of it at its full-size (100%). Set the transition to the next slide as "None" (the default).
On the second slide, insert your video file, and set it to play immediately after the slide transition (this is the default). Now, place the screenshot on top of the video image, align it so that it exactly matches the first slide, and give it a Dissolve build out, to run immediately (or with whatever delay you want) after the slide transition.
What will happen is that the first slide with transition to the second "invisibly", since the same image is on both. Once the second slide appears, the video behind the screenshot will start playing, and the screenshot will then fade to reveal the already-playing video. The effect will be of a slide crossfading with video.
(As is often the case with Keynote, it is helpful not to first approach presentation problems in terms of actual "slides", but instead in terms of what the effect should be. Many time you can fool the audience into seeing more or fewer "slides" than are actually used in the presentation, and this can make achieving certain effects possible, or easier.)

.swf files with imported video are just white slides with no audio.

Hello there,
I had been using Adobe Presenter 7 until recently and I have now upgraded to Presenter 10 for use within Powerpoint 2013. Unfortunately I am having quite a few issues with it.
I am using it to make presentations built up of imported video files, as I had been doing before with Presenter 7 without any issue. I typically have a presentation of 6 parts and import each video file ~80MB Mp4 into a single slide then name each slide adding a presenter and output it to an 'swf' file. This worked fine in Presenter 7.0.7. Now my issue is that the output will load the player it will have the correct presenter, and timings on the chaptered sidebar but when it plays the presentation area of the screen is just white, there's no audio, no video just the correct time for each section. I've checked the output folder the individual video files will play within windows media player without issue.
It should be noted that the html5 only version works fine, until uploaded to a web server and then it will not load any of the player with IE11 (I can't test it in other browsers).
I would appreciate some help with this if anyone has any ideas to fix this.
Many thanks

Well make sure you have read and write permissions on the file. Do a get info in the video (command-I) and alter it as necessary.

Reset Slide with Audio on Enter CP7 HTML5

I have a slide with some audio and animation (captions fading in and out) on the timeline that is triggered by a play/pause button with some Advanced Actions attached to it to toggle the buttons and resume and pause the timeline.
However, if I navigate through this slide to another slide my buttons get confused when I re-enter the slide with audio and require me to click/toggle them a couple of times to get them to work.
The solution I think I need is to be able to reset the slide with audio every time I enter it. Is this possible and can anyone point me in the right direction please?
Many thanks.

Buttons are text buttons sitting side-by-side, not stacked. The buttons appear only for the duration of the slide.
The result I wanted was a total reset of the slide, essentially for the play button to be visible each time and for the audio/animation to be restored to their original states. This has now been achieved thanks to your guidance.
I've switched a couple of things (see screen grabs) to enable the play button to be visible on entering the slide as I don't want the audio/animation to autoplay, I'd prefer this to be user-initiated. I know you'll know what I've done by looking at the screen grabs but I've included some notes in case this might help anyone else.
1. Set slide to display play button, hide pause button and continue to the first pause that is on my timeline (in this case the pause appears after 1.5 seconds) on enter:
2. When play button is clicked it is hidden and the pause button is displayed. Continue plays the slide.
3. When the pause button is clicked it disappears and the play button is displayed. The slide is paused.
Thanks again for your help, it is much appreciated.

Inserting Black Slide With No Music

Using iWork08, I opened a PowerPoint (PP) presentation and saved it in Keynote 08 (KN).
When running presentation in PP it is possible to have the first slide BLACK with no music, make a few comments, and when I want to proceed just hit the return key and the presentation continues with music.
In KN the presentation plays music with the first BLACK slide. If I turn music off, it turns it off for the remainder of the presentation. Is there a way to insert a BLACK slide at the beginning of KN with no music and have music commence with the second slide forward?

Given the way that the current version of Keynote deals with audio tracks, what you are trying to do is not possible - directly. There are a couple of workarounds I could suggest, but both are rather cumbersome:
1) Determine how much time you need for your opening comments under the black slide and when Recording the Soundtrack, include that much silence at the head of the audio track before the music starts; have the first "real" slide begin with the music.
2) Create a silent, black slideshow: one single black slide with no audio. Then Hyperlink the end of this to the first slide in your regular presentation. This will allow you to have as much time as you need for the introductory comments.
CAVEAT: The slideshow will NOT retain any of your Recorded Synchronization when played back via a hyperlink. You will need to advance all of your Builds and Transitions manually. Thus, this is not likely a solution to your problem if you want your slideshow to playback fully automatically.

CP8 Interactions and slides with audio and closed captions - not working well - please help

Okay, I am using cp8 on a windows 8 64 bit machine. I have placed an interaction on a slide. I also have audio on that slide and closed captions.
When I get to the slide, the audio does not play because the mere fact that the interaction is on there makes the slide pause upon enter. I could have the student click play on the playbar to go, but that is not required on slides without interactions, so I don't like that solution. I also could do an On Enter slide Play Audio and pick the wav file, but then the closed captions don't show up.
So, the question is, how do I have the slide automatically play the audio at the slide level without the student having to click the play button to go?? Slides with interactions should behave just like other slides with objects/widgets on them. This auto pausing thing is driving me nuts!
Thanks,
Lori

Lori, this is puzzling! Are you talking about one of the learning interactions included with Captivate? If yes, which one? My puzzlement is due to the fact that what you described is what happened in CP6: interaction paused slide at first frame (I had a workaround for audio). But since CP7 interactions do not pause any slide, you'll have to provide the pause yourself. There are some exceptions (games).

Audio in PDF slide show doesn't play. What can I do ?

I created a PDF slide show with MP3 audio (from Elements Organizer version 10.0). The PDF doesn't play the audio. What can I do ?

Hello Andaleeb,
thank you for getting back to me.
The slide show works fine, including sound, from within Organizer. It
also works fine when I export it as a video. Just PDF isn't working.
In the meantime, from various contributions in the forum, I gather that,
unfortunately, the Organizer (just like Lightroom) simply does not
support adding music to PDF slide shows. Apparently, there is a way to
do that using Acrobat Pro (only costs 640 Euros).
You may consider my question answered.
Regards,
Thomas

Having trouble pausing a slide with audio paused

Hi, I have a slide with audio. I have a hyperlink on this slide, and I would like the slide to pause if someone clicks the hyperlink, then keep playing when the viewer presses the "play" button again. If the viewer does NOT click the hyperlink, I'd like the slide to play as normal. I can easily get the audio to stop playing when the hyperlink is clicked, but the slide itself keeps playing sans audio, and the next slide then comes up without the audio ever restarting. Can someone tell me how to conditionally pause the slide when a hyperlink is clicked? Thank you!

Did you remove the "Continue playing project" from your click box properties? Right next to the URL is a button with a small triangle on it. If you click that you can define how to open up the URL (new window, current window etc.). At the bottom of that list you need to remove the tick in front of "Continue playing project".

Captivate 7 question - slide with audio and light boxes not functioning properly

I am currently working a project and cannot figure something out.
I have a slide with 9 smartshape buttons on it. When each button is clicked it brings up a lightbox. Each lightbox has it's own close button. When the lightbox is closed by the user then the user immediately sees the 9 button screen and can choose another button to view and read, and so forth. I have the lightboxes working fine.
Now, I added text to speech. It is a mere 15 seconds in length, but it contains some important content and the directions. I want the text to speech audio to stop playing if the user goes ahead and clicks on one of the 9 buttons which then brings up a lightbox. I want the audio to then resume when they close the lightbox. OK I have all of that working in a technical sense.
I've also tried this advanced action, but this stops the Audio entirely, however it does solve the autoadvance issue. so I am just trading issues.
I also have "back and next" nav buttons on the slide, so the user must click one or the other to proceed off the slide. Ok those worked.
Here is the issue. Once I added the text to speech audio, at the end of 17.3 seconds, whatever lightbox the user may be viewing and they hit the close lightbox button, captivate automatically sends the user to the next slide. No clicking "Next" or anything. I can't figure out why this is occurring.
Prior to adding audio the slide worked as it should with the user being able to click each of the 9 buttons to "read some info" then close it and click another button on the slide, etc. They could do this in any order they wanted.
When I added the audio, I set the advanced actions so if a user clicked on one of the buttons, the audio would stop playing until they came back to the main screen. Ok no problem getting that to function - except it stops functioning at the end of 17.3 seconds.
What am I missing?
Thanks for any help!!!
Michelle

Correct I have only 15 seconds of audio with the slide. no audio with any of the light boxes. Those are "read only" light boxes.
If the user clicks a shape button early, before the entire audio has played, I want the audio to stop, so the user can read the lightbox info, then as they click back to the slide away from the lightbox, I want the audio to resume playing - so they can hear the rest of the audio. But, this is where is doesn't function properly as when the audio finishes playing at 15 seconds. The next shape button the user clicks on to shows the lightbox, but when they click to close the lightbox, the lightbox closes then sends the user to the next slide. They haven't had a chance to view any of the other shape buttons and the information found in those corresponding light boxes.
I hope this clarifies.
Any thoughts?

I just moved my itunes library from a win 7 computer to a win 8.1 computer. Getting an error message "iTunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration. Audio/Video playback may not operate properly. Can't play CDs or get audio file from web!

Help! I just moved my itunes library from a Win 7 computer to a new Win 8.1 computer following the instructions on the itunes website. Everything is good except I'm getting an error message on the Win 8 computer if I try to play a CD or get an audio file off of the internet. I get an error message that says "iTunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration. Audio/Video playback may not operate properly. I don't know where to look for or fix the audio configuration on the win 8 computer. As far as I can tell the iTunes configuration looks the same as on the other computers in the house. At this point I don't dare plug my ipod touch into the Win 8 computer for fear it will get messed up.

I have the same problem and I know that it is due to my PCI Audio driver not being compatible with WIndows 8.1.
iTunes isn't the only program that can't direct sound to the built-in speakers anymore. The obvious solution would be to update the drivers, but unfortunately Dell does not provide an updated driver for my model, so I am stuck with that.
However, saying that, only my laptop speakers are affected by this. I can use sound fine on applications where I can choose the output device and direct sound to the head phones, but for some reason iTunes does not let you choose the audio device manually.
To listen to music I imported the iTunes Library in Windows Media Player and changed the audio output using the following instructions: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/c00d11ba
However, I would also like to rent movie's from iTunes,
Would be great if iTunes would let you choose the output device, too, like most other applications using sound from Skype to Windows Media Player,...

Trying to get my fcp project to burn to dvd at the highest quality? Ive used compressor and then tried to put it in dvdsp put its not working. I am having problems with the audio or when i burn it , i cant play the dvd? any help would be appreciated

Ive used compressor and then tried to put it in dvdsp put its not working. I am having problems with the audio or when i burn it , i cant play the dvd? any help would be appreciated

I suspect you are attempting to burn an HD DVD, which will not play on a DVD player...
But if you provide more details such as the settings you are applying in Compressor, then we would be able to provide you more accurate information.
How are you adding the files to Compressor?
In FCP, what are your footage properties (command-9) and sequence settings (command-0)

Thanks Gary, I think I should have mentioned that I have wired my other speakers and it works fine.
I just wanted to go wireless when presenting in front of class, simply to avoid trailing wires from the macbook which I position in front of me on a desk next to the projector and the speakers are behind me next to the screen.
I have struggled to find a solution, and reading through other discussions it is a problem that perhaps only Apple can solve.
I hope the new 'Yosemite' will resolve the problem.
Thank you once again for your reply.

VideoDisplay plays video with no audio

I am experiencing times when my VideoDisplay object plays the
video fine, but with no audio. At that point, all audio in the flex
application cannot be heard. Has anyone else experienced this
issue?

Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
    1.    Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
    2.    Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
    3.    Restart your router. (Also try removing it’s power cord for at least 30 seconds)
    4.    Reset the Apple TV (Settings > General > Reset > Reset all settings)
    5.    Restore the Apple TV (Settings > General > Reset > Restore)
