Timing goes out and audio cuts off at end of published slide sequence

Hi
I am experiencing a problem with timing and the sound cutting off at the end of a slide sequence.
Here is my work flow:
I record what I want my slide show to say, add my music and sound effects in Soundbooth. I then create a mp3 file for my slide show.
I adjust my slide show timing to match my voice over, ensuring that the total number of minutes and seconds the slide show equates to matches the length of my audio. I then import my audio into my project while maintaining the slide timing.
If I preview the individual slides to match the timing of the arrival of words or pointers in my presentation by pressing the play button in Captivate, everything is great.... until I publish to a .swf file.
On a 2m:50sec slide show of 22 slides it cuts off approximately 5 seconds before the end. My timing which I have bent my brain on getting right, is out and appears to worsen the longer the slide show is or if it is not on the latest and greatest Mac powered computer.
I have gone so far as to increase the length of time on the last slide 5 seconds beyond the length of time that the audio occupies as well as adding another 5 seccond blank slide and still have the same cut off problem. No ideas how to help the poor souls who might not have an amazing computer to watch the demonstration on?
Interestingly if I publish and look only at the last 3 slides or if I look at a short sequence of slides or at a slide in isolation, my audio is there as it should be along with the timing. It would appear that the time "lost" or a lag between the presentation and the audio is the culprit.
Kindly advise if there is a solution to this or whether the problem lies with something I am doing.
Thank you in advance

Has there been any new developments on this problem?
I've been having to do some crazy work arounds to avoid audio cutting off at the end of slides when using CP5 for development.
Then this week I had to review an old training which was published a long time ago only to discover that the same issue of audio cutting off is happening there.
These materials were developed using CP4 and some even with CP3.  This means that the problem/change is not CP5 but probably something to do with the Flash player version because at the time of publshing the older files did not have this issue.
This has me really worried.  There is no way I can go back and update all the old files and it means that previously perfect materials are now being viewed with audio cutting off.
Have the Adobe Captivate developers considered the possiblity that this may be a flash player issue?  Have you discussed this with the Adobe Flash developers?  Will there be a fix for this anytime soon?
Thanks,
Aimee

  • Video and Audio cut off in Premiere CC after Syncing in PluralEyes 3

    So I sycronized this sequence in PluralEyes 3. I exported it as an XML for Premiere Pro. I imported the XML into Premiere Pro CC. When I oppened up the sequence the end off all the clips are missing audio and video. More is missing for the longer clips. You can see how the clips are blocked off. I have video from a T3i and a K-x and audio from an H4N. Running OSX Mavericks on a Macbook Pro 15in Retina w/ Nvidia 650M 1G. Anybody have a solution or know why it's doing this?
    Thanks

    Figured out that this happens if you import your assetts into premiere. Create a sequence. Export an XML from Premiere to PluralEyes. Sync it. Create an XML for Premiere and then import it into Premiere.
    It works properly if you start in PluralEyes with your assetts and then Impot the synced XML into Premiere. Its a shorter and smarter way to do it anyway. I was trying to do it the way I used to on PC.

  • When recording, strange noises and audio cut offs

    When i open garageband and record a basic track (no other programs running), randomly, a scratchy noise that kinda sounds like a distorted, heavy metronome, comes from the left speaker or left headphone.
    This noise is not recorded, but comes out very loudly in the monitor.
    Also, when recording a basic track, the output audio will completely shut off from the monitor and from everything, but Garageband continues to record and the recording is not affected. This is a huge problem especially if im using a metronome or layering tracks. This does not affect iTunes or anything, JUST GarageBand
    please help! should i bring it into a MacGenius?

    Hi ladyshade666-
    Does it make this noise if you run the Mac with only the mouse, keyboard and monitor attached?
    Are you absolutely sure the sound is coming from within the Mac? I have had a couple of FireWire disks that when connected inject all kinds of noise into my amplified speakers. I turn the drives off when I am in the studio.
    Reverse polarity is very dangerous and will cause early demise of power supplies. You may also get yourself electrocuted. It may very well be the noise-causing difference in tour scenario.
    I think your first call should be to an electrician.

  • Audio cutting off

    I'm using Captivate 5.5 w/all available updates.  I have read through other discussions and attempted the suggestings to correct his issue. The audio cuts off on slide 1 (of 3) when published to Connect.  I've uploaded it as a .cptx, .swf, and .zip.  On exit is "no action".  I don't know what else to do and my frustration level is max'd out.  I need some help to correct this issue.

    Thanks for the suggestion.  I got it working by adding several items; 1. a transparant button running past the other page items, and 2. adding space at the end of my audio.  I don't know which of these individual actions made it work and I'm not going to mess with it!  So relieved it is working now and the content is now published!

  • Audio cutting off at the end of audio clips w no change in waveform?

    Audio cuts off right at the end of some of my clips... I can still see the waveforms that have the full audio on them, but no audio plays for those last two or three seconds! My audio level is the same throughout the clip, so its not like its fading out or anything. This has been happeneing for a few weeks now, in multiple seperate projects.

    Hi David,
    Thanks for the response. I did look at the song that got cut off and it's a .m4a file. However, I also have normal audio that comes from an external Zoom recorder in .wav format that is getting cut off in the same way. The strange thing is I've never had a problem with this before a couple weeks ago. I've used this same song before and my external audio is always in .wav format

  • ITunes sync problems - incomplete sync and songs cut off

    I have two problems. One is longstanding and the other is new.
    The new one is that I bought an iPhone 6 a few weeks ago.  I mostly love it, but many iTunes songs from my Mac (10.9.5 iOS, with iTunes 11.4) have not properly synced onto the iPhone. The songs that will not play are greyed out with a circle containing a square that is grayed out. I suspect those are songs that have not properly downloaded, but I really don't know.  I have seen a discussion thread from people with this problem with Yosemite, but I have not upgraded yet.
    The other problem is old. Some synced songs on both my new iPhone and an older iPod cut off the end of the song.  I know that this has been going on for a long time, but the folks at the Genius Bar look like they have never heard of it before.
    I love my my music.  Help, please!

    Does it get cut off on the iPod or in iTunes (or both)?
    Does it always happen with the same songs?
    The problem may be related to the program that was used to encode those files. Do a +Get Info+ on a few of the affected songs and see if there is anything in common where is says +Encoded with+ on the Summary tab.

  • I can't print multiple pages from a website using the site's print button or 'file - print' and if I try to save as a PDF, it still only saves the first page and then cuts off.

    I'm using Mac OS X 10.5.8 and Firefox version 3.6.8. When I'm on a website and try to print the info on the site, whether I use the site's own 'print' option, or I go to the Firefox toolbar and try to use 'File->Print', only 1 page prints out - it just cuts off mid-page. If I try to save as a PDF instead, the same thing happens in exactly the same spot - it saves as a 1-page PDF and cuts off in the middle of the page. I've already tried all of the suggestions here https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Printing+a+web+page?s=printing&as=s and the suggestions here http://kb.mozillazine.org/Problems_printing_web_pages and nothing has worked.
    I appreciate any help!!

    I have the same problem... not being able to print website 'Print' pages. I have read carefully the above link and have followed the reset directions in about:config, but I still cannot print in Firefox. Both Google Chrome and IE work perfectly every time. I have verified that the correct printer is selected and that the margins are in order (0.5 all around happen to be what mine are set for). I have resorted to use the Firefox Add On "View this Page in IE" whenever I need to print something. Works like a charm, but come on... it should work in Firefox too! I know there is some setting or something, but the Problems_printing_web_pages link had nothing there that worked for me.

  • UNEXPECTED RESET...I'M LISTENING AND ONLY ONE SONG GOES OUT AND STARTS IN DIFFERENT MENU

    UNEXPECTED RESET.
    I'M LISTENING  MY MUSIC . BUT  MY IPOD GOES OUT AND STARTS IN DIFFERENT MENU

    Hello LUISPOLAR11,
    It sounds like your iPod classic is playing one song but then stops and appears to go to a different menu. I would start by resetting it:
    Reset your iPod - Apple Support
    Toggle the Hold switch on and off. (Slide it to Hold, then turn it off again.)
    Press and hold the Menu and Center (Select) buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears (about 6 to 8 seconds). You might need to repeat this step.
    If you have difficulty resetting your iPod, set it on a flat surface. Make sure the finger pressing the Select button is not touching any part of the click wheel. Also, make sure that you are pressing the Menu button toward the outside of the click wheel, and not near the center.
    If the above steps didn't work, try connecting your iPod to a power adapter. Then, plug the power adapter into an electrical outlet, or connect your iPod to your computer. Make sure that the computer is turned on and isn't set to go to sleep. Try resetting your iPod while it is connected to power.
    If the issue persits, I would restore your iPod with iTunes and re sync your data to it:
    Restoring iPod to factory settings
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Regards,
    Sterling

  • Audio cuts off then video moments later for Jabber users when content is shared during a multipoint VC

           If a presentation* is being shown from a VC end point/or by Jabber, the audio cuts off, then the video of the Jabber user freezes. The call has not ended on our end we can still hear and see them. A few moments later their video on our end freezes and the audio is lost. The call is finally terminated a few moments after.
           When this happens to the Jabber participant they either have to restart Jabber or in some case have to reboot their PC
           The Jabber participant can be cut off from their class 2 to 3 times  throughout the duration of the class
           This happens over all the MCU\blades, so doesn’t  appear to be blade specific
           Only appears to happen in multi –point conferences not in point to point calls
    *Presentation: This can be anything from a word document, to a PowerPoint presentation to a web browser
    The warning they receive says:
    The application has encountered a terminal problem.
    Location:
    Message: assertion failed. (link_ret = = GST_PAD_LINK_OK)
    Domain: <no domain>

    Is this problem specific to Jabber clients, or Jabber Guest? If the former, you'll have better luck over on the Jabber client forum:

    this is all greek to me. WHAT IS STARTTLS?

    Please help me set this up securely. Thanks

    I updated my 4s to ios7 and the phone is now completly dead. I tried to restore it with the new itunes but it won't restore. If you can't get the download be glad! Anyone have any ideas other than going out and buying a new Samsung phone? I don't really need a paper weight.

    No not jailbroken. After the update which took about 45 minutes. The phone went black. Dead. Wouldn't restart. Using the new itunes I tried to restore it. It went through the motions; the white Apple and progress bar appeared on the iphone screen. Then I got a message "Itunes has detected an iphone in recovery mode. You must restore this iphone before it can be used with itunes." Then the phone went completly dead again. I Repeated the process and got the same results. Is there another way to restore the phone if it's dead, besides itunes?
