Unwanted Pausing

When I am recording screens on demonstration mode, I am
having slides pause inapropriately. This will happen within a
slide, ie the slide will not complete all actions, and is
translated through to the published swf file. The project will not
proceed without pausing and un-pausing the presentation. It will
also happen betwen slides, in that the transition between the two
slides will not complete without pausing and un-pausing the
presentation.
The project I am referring to, as an example is:
4560 KB in size
Project Size 790 X 545 Browser, Originally captured @ 1152 X
864 and resized
Contains 23 slides
14 Bitmap Images(Backgrounds) @ 1682 KB each
3 Bitmap Images(Images) 1 @ 1191 KB, 1 @ 3673 KB, 1 @ 3889 KB
2 Audio Clips, 1 @ 55 KB, 1 @ 653 KB
1 Fullmotion Video @ 437 KB

Hi again
Just downloaded the file and I see you have two buttons on
each slide. The buttons are what is pausing the movie. By default,
the very nature of Button and Click Box objects is to pause the
movie until your user interacts. What you can do is to double-click
one of the buttons and click the Options tab. There, DE-select the
"Pause after" check box. After you do this, click the check box at
the bottom of the dialog labeled "Apply to all". Then click the
Settings button next to the check box. Make the following
selections: Apply only changed properties and Apply to all slides.
Then click Close and OK.
After you make those changes, your movie should play right
along. However, you will probably want to change the timings of the
buttons. As after you do this, you very briefly see the buttons.
I'm guessing that won't be what you want.
Cheers... Rick

Unwanted Pause?

Hello Everyone,
I would like to ask you for your help.I am building a DVD with motion Menus but there seems to be a problem.When it transition from Motion video to the menu there is a unwanted pause which makes the menu look like it is 2 parts(which is correct) but i wanted it to play as one without stoping so it looks like one.
I have searched on the net and noticed that this is common problem with motion menus.
There is a solution that states to make the both menus as one clip but then when i link the PSD menu i can not tell the menu to show up at particular point of the clip.Because i have a intro and then main menu.And both i want to play as one.
Other refer to change GOP to 12(which i dont know how to do it or what it is).
Is there a solution for that?

Let me tell you waht i did.
I have expanded the menus from 30sec to 3min duration.In this case the chance that person viewing the dvd will let it run for 3 min is nearly zero.But just in case i also made that the duration of the video is less then the actual duration to prevent the black frame.It seems it is working for main menu but seems to still show black frame for scene menu.But in any case i make the menu duration longer and like i said in that case the change to see problem with seamless play is less.
Which other program is good for dvd Authoring(proffesional though?
I was thinking at one point to join all the menus in one,but i need an option in motion tab"Start time" for the video so i can set at what point to start from the video.
Do you know any programs that would let me do that?
Thank

Unwanted pause between chapters

Here's the problem. I am using DVD Studio Pro and there are unwanted pauses between chapters when played on SOME dvd players. The layout is such that hitting the "play movie" button activates track 1, which I have set different chapter markers in. Each chapter marker is set to endjump to the next without pause. The pause only occurs on some DVD players, not all. I don't know if the problem is in my layout/programming, settings that I am unaware of, or quality of dvd's or dvd burner (G4 powerbook superdrive). Any help would be sweet.

The problem is that your setting those end jump between chapters. No need for that - a player will play through the chapters automatically.

Unwanted pause in preview

I have a slide with several text boxes that appear in 2 second intervals.
This is controlled via the timeline.
When I preview the slide it runs ok and then stops prior to the first text box appearing.
On some slides it works fine on others nothing.
I can see no difference between the slides. The text boxes are not hidden, when I preview through the timeline player everything works fine.
If I press play in the preview it continues ok. I just want to loose the pause!
Any ideas?
Many thanks V

Post screenshots of the timeline to see the difference between one that pauses, and one that doesn't. By default Text Entry Boxes will pause at 1.5secs.
Which preview do you use? Because 'Play Slide' (with play button in Timeline panel) or F3 is NOT a preview, it is only meant to be used for synchronizing reasons during editing. You need another preview mode, best one is In Browser (F12) or in HTML Browser (F11), it is closest to the situation after publishing.

Ipod shuffle unwanted pauses

certain tunes always pause after 10 secs or so of play. what can i do to prevent this?

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Do the songs stop altogether, and just pause for a few seconds? Does this affect purchased content from the iTunes Music Store, or just any kind of song?
Be sure that those tunes play OK in iTunes, and that it really is just your iPod's problem, not that songs's faultness.
Try restoring your iPod, then loading the content back onto it through iTunes again:
Restoring iPod shuffle to Factory Settings
I hope this helps you,

Unwanted pausing between songs

I just updated to the new version of iTunes. Now, when I use the 'Party Shuffle' feature, rather than going straight from one song to the next, it keeps stopping after each song. This means I have to keep hitting the play button every few minutes, which is incredibly annoying.
I have noticed that tracks I have added to iTunes since upgrading to the new version do not have this problem, and play as normal.
Can someone tell me how I can go back to iTunes 6 or fix this problem with iTunes 7 as there is no way I want to load up hundreds of CDs again.

by any chance, do you have "crossfade playback" selected in your itunes Playback preferences tab?
if so, by way of experiment, try switching crossfade playback off. does Party Shuffle start behaving normally for you again?

Unwanted pausing and freezing at the beginning - Flash player problem - Need help

Hi everybody,
I have got the following problem: the problem occurs especially on youtube.com.
Every time when I open a video, the adobe flash player buffers the video a little bit and suddenly the grey line, which means the buffering on youtube video, stops. Then video plays only until the end of the grey buffer line. Then it freeze and I have to wait until 10-20 seconds until the grey line continues moving forward and at the same time the video continues to play.
But I don't want to have that freezing problem at the beginning of each video.
The important thing to know is: when I used a very old version of the flash player (the version 9 or 10) then every video on youtube worked very well without any freezing problems at the beginning
What is the solution. Can you please help me?
Here is what I have done so far:
I updated my flash player to the latest version.
My internet speed is very fast.
When I click right on the youtube video screen in order to go to the settings: then I unchecked "active hardware acceleration, I changed the temporary storage limit to "unlimited".
My global settings looks like the following: I checked "allow websites to save information on your computer" and "ask if a website wants to use a peer assisted network".
My OS: Windows 7 (64)
Current version of firefox, chrome and IE. I have the problem in every browser.
In the attachment you can see 2 screenshots of my problem: One where you can see the grey buffer line. and the 2nd: where you can see that the video stopped loading and buffering and the video stopped playing.
Unfortunately, I don't get money from the company for advertising its product *sigh*. ;-)

Just because your internet connection is fast doesn't mean that the route from the specific server to you is also equivalently fast. You can get some additional information by right-clicking the YouTube video and choosing Stats for nerds. That information would be interesting.
If video plays back fine once it actually buffers successfully, then there's probably not a lot you can do. You might take a look at a different browser. Google Chrome will probably use HTML5 playback on YouTube, and Internet Explorer will use the ActiveX control on Flash, which is significantly different from the NPAPI Flash Player used in Firefox.

Quiz Slide Pausing Issue

I'll do my best to explain my situation. I just got Captivate 8, and am just getting comfortable with the environment. But for the life of me, I can't figure out why my quiz slides are pausing at the end and not continuing to the next slide. I am using master slides, and custom navigation buttons. My intention is to not include the built in playback controls, as I wanted to have my navigation stylized and placed a bit differently. I do have Playback controls enabled currently, to help me troubleshoot the issue. My Back and Refresh buttons work fine, but whenever I click the Next button (set to the Continue Action), it will complete the current slide, but pause somewhere in the transition. The only way to continue at this point is to press Play in the Playback controls. I've tried making this button a master slide button (by using a smart shape, and selecting Use As Button) and I've tried putting the button on each individual slide, but the problem seems to be the same (or similar) no matter what.
Thanks in advance, and feel free to nag me for more details.

Well, this is what I get for being an idiot. You made me realize that there was something silly I was overlooking. I had a button in the Master Slide that was set for the Exit action. I guess that action automatically has a pause at the end of it in the timeframe, so it adds an extra, unwanted pause if included on the Master. I removed it and placed it on each individual slide, and it's working fine now. But for the record, In Captivate 7 I was just using a blank master, and (stupidly) copying every element that should have been templatized onto each slide... I'm not the greatest self-learner.
Thanks a million for pointing me in the right direction.

Encore CS6 and loop point bug

Hello,
does anyone know if the new Encore has fixed the black video, or unwanted pauses, (that happened playing loop point menus) of a BluRay disc burnt with the previous versions CS5 and CS5.5?
Thanks in advance
Giorgio

Actually I one of each. My rendering crash is with blu-ray, and my motion menu playback going to black is for a DVD.
I called tech support and they want money to work on non install issues.
One support person on the forum asked me to attach the dump file, yet this forum does not have a way to do so.
One support person listed his e-mail address but it is incorrect.
Only quick solution is to go back to CS5.5.

Unwanted chapter pauses

I am sorry if this has been covered..I am creating a dvd of a 2 hour presentation with various speakers. My client would like to be able to have a menu with a play all button and buttons for individual presentations to watch only. I have encoded the 2 hrs and set created a play all script:
mov GPRM 0,1
jump track1::opening
in the opening marker i have set the end jump to another script I call ch2 end.
jump track 1::ch2 if (GPRM 0=1)
jump menu 1
I duplicated this script with only the next chapter modification in the first line of the script changing to reflect the next presentation.
the upshot is that there is a slight pause going from chapter to chapter when the play all is pressed and I need to find a way to get it to play smooth or tell my client why it is happening.

Hi - welcome to the discussions.
The way to do this is not to use end jumps on chapters, and to use stories instead... no need to script this at all.
Make a single story that contains ALL of the markers, and set the play all button to go to that story container. Be sure to set the menu call and end jump for the story.
Now make a story for every single chapter marker, put the relevant marker in each and point your menu buttons to the appropriate story. Remember to set the end jumps/menu call for each.
When you pay a single chapter, you are actually playing the story - the footage will show and you return to the menu. When you play all, you are playing a much larger story... it will play through with no pauses.
There is a slight variation which can save some time for you.
Keep the play al story as it is, but use chapter marker end jumps to go back to the menu and correct button on each chapter. No scripts needed here... what happens is that the end jump for the marker gets attached to the end of the marker itself - like a post playback command. When you pay from a specific marker it will obey the command and go to the menu when it completes. However, if you put the same marker into a story it gets listed as 'chapter x entry' - i.e. no post commands are in there. In this situation the marker will play on to the next marker in the sequence... no pauses.
If you really want to script something, use a script to get back to the right button when the user presses the menu key - send them to this:
mov GPRM0, SPRM7
Jump indirect Menuname \[GPRM0\]
This will set up a GPRM based button jump - they will land on the menu and on the button for the last chapter that they were playing.

Deleting a paused print job in HP 2540 deskjet

I want to delete or cancel a print job I paused using wireless HP 2540 Deskjet all-in-one. I have been unable to get rid of it. I have tried:
1. pressing the X on the top of the printer.
2. Searching HP utility for a link to delete command.
3. Going to HP help center (when click on DeskJet 2540 the link is empty)
4. Unplugging the printer and plugging back in in a few minutes
When I go back in to create a new print job, a dialogue box appears saying a current job is paused and would I like to add a new job to the queue. The problem here is the job I am attempting to delete is about 120 pages that I no longer need to print.
I have a 13 inch MacBook Air with Yosemite 10.10.2. Any feedback will be appreciated.
Richard

A reset of the printing system will remove the unwanted print job. Note that this action will also remove all printers from the Printers & Scanners preference pane, but not the supporting drivers. So you will just need to add the printers again.

Image searches yield unwanted results

Say for example, i type in sandal and click search. It takes me to the search results, i find a picture i like, and click on it. when i go to the link that says "see full size image" safari pauses, the url jumps around and then it brings me to some site that sells sandals. in between those two pages, there is a white screen and a little button that says "continue" flashes in the top left corner, then it goes to the ad site.
I must've installed something that I shouldn't have. what are the steps i can take to fix this?

well it probably wont happen to you because I believe it is because of some software that is on my computer. However I can post a URL that appears on my browser when the search image link takes me to an unwanted page, if you think that would help. But, im pretty certain that it is software that is controling safari rather than safari itself. Maybe i shouldn't have posted in the safari section.

Unwanted data row in file

I've created two vi's that write a header and then write data under the headers. Both vi's use the same code to collect the data. The difference is in the creation of the headers and the naming of the channels in the choose channel vi. The choose channel vi produces an unwanted row of data under the header which happens after the header information is written. I paused the program after the header information was written and it wasn't there yet. Is there something that I'm missing when naming channels that may cause this?
Thanks for the help.

This looks like a simple timing issue. If you force the wait to occur sequentially it should eliminate the problem:

Cleaned Workflow History List - Workflow Pausing State failed to resume

Hi All,
SPD workflow is pausing for some duration once it resume send mail and pause again as per some business condition, it repeat 9-10 times only.
Pausing duration is 1 week
Couple of months, It was working fine, then suddenly it starts showing the status "Failed to Start (retrying)" getting a result but not 100% accurate, some times its start firing unwanted mails to target audience.
Then I checked all the jobs which were running ,but workflow history list was showing more than 100K + records and exceeding threshold limit i.e. 5K, then i delete the record from the workflow history list and figure come down to 1K only. After that,
as i created the item and start same workflow, its never resume , even i pause it for 10 minutes and checked after 2 days, still in pausing state. I spend 3-4 days to explore it. but didn't get any success . Please suggest for the same.
Thanks and Regards..
Manoj Mittal

Hi Cowboy,
Per my knowledge, if we delete the workflow history list items, it will not affect the workflows waiting to be triggered.
However, if you go to the workflow status page, the history will be empty as the events
have been deleted in workflow history list.
The code in your post will delete 2000 items in workflow history list.
As there is no status for the items in workflow history list, so I recommend to use the date as the query condition.
For example, if you want to delete items created between 2015-02-01 and 2015-02-16, then you can change the query as below in your code:
$query="<Where><And><Geq><FieldRef Name='Created'/><Value Type='DateTime'>2015-02-01T00:00:00Z</Value></Geq><Leq><FieldRef Name='Created' /><Value Type='DateTime'>2015-02-01T00:00:00Z</Value></Leq></And> </Where>"
$spQuery=$query
Thanks,
Victoria

Music pauses when browsing with Safari

When I am playing music on ipad via airport express and browsing with Safari at the same time the music pauses when opening new pages. Does anyone know how to fix this unwanted intereference?

Hi Kappy
I know how to turn off the pop-ups, thanks.
My concern is that the message comes up when I start Safari before a webpage even opens.
So it is not coming up as a result of a webpage, rather it is coming up when starting Safari. And that worries me - it may be residing elsewhere in the ios.
this possible?
