Upload to Sum Total LMS Playing Wrong Audio

I recently completed a course in Captivate 4 with audio narration and 1 video. Everything worked great until I uploaded to Sum Total LMS. When the course initially launched you hear the audio from the first slide and the audio from the video playing at the same time. If you close the course and restart it, it plays fine.
I have removed the course from the LMS and reposted it twice and am still haveing the same issue, can anyone help me out?

It may be due to the way your video has been added inside the SWF in Flash.
Was the video created as a symbol, and therefore is not at the main timeline level?
If so, it might be that Captivate is playing the video and it's audio when as soon as it loads the file, instead of on the slide where the video is intended to play.
How many slides are there in this project and on what slide is the video SWF?

Uploading Linked Captivate 2 Projects into Sum Total LMS

I've been trying to upload a series of media-rich linked
projects to our Sum Total LMS. Although there are several projects,
they are linked to play seamlessly to the end user. The problem is
when each project is published, it creates its own zip file. In
order to upload the files to the LMS they must be in one zip file
or they will upload as separate, independent learning modules. I've
encountered numerous challenges in attempting the upload.
Does anyone have any experience/suggestions about:
- Publishing each project into the same zip file
- Uploading linked Captivate 2 projects to an LMS, especially
the Sum Total LMS
- Uploading a project with flash videos to an LMS
I greatly appreciate any feedback you can provide.
Thanks!

I always link between Captivate files to ensure that my files
are not too big. I have done this many times; however, I have not
tried it when there is a quiz involved. What I do is link them
inside Captivate, publish the files (non-zipped, which you can do
if there isn't a quiz involved) and then zip them up together with
Winzip. When you load it into the LMS, you need to choose either
"Knowledge Document" or "General Document" and there, you can
choose the launch file (whatever file you want to load
first.)

Exported file plays wrong audio with slide

Hi all,
I just produced a tutorial in v2 that has sound files embeded
in almost every slide. They were originally wavs, but I have
captivate convert them to 64kbit mp3s. I also have some slides that
do not contain sound, but contain .flv files. (These .flv files
have sound.)
When I previewed the file, everything worked perfectly. The
sound cues were right, and the videos appeared just as they should.
However, when I published the file, the slides played completely
different sound files from other parts of the project and in the
wrong order. I tried exporting using both standalone .exe and
web-based formats using Flash 8, but the results were the same each
time.
Does anyone have any ideas about what could cause this
problem? Based on what I've seen, I think the three most likely
candidates for trouble are:
1) Slide audio errors
2) .Flv files
3) Flash 8
But there could be other, stranger things afoot.
Please let me know if you need more info about
something.

I tried re-exporting as an H264 mov but the exported file shrunk to 400 mb and lost most of the footage.
How do I fix?
I am guessing that you may have accidentally made a selection in the timeline before exporting - and then only that was exported.
Try exporting like Russ said.
And Russ meant to write VLC.

Movie plays wrong audio, EyeHome plays correct audio

I have a video that I ripped from a commercial DVD for use on my Eyehome. The MPEG2 file apparently has two audio tracks (for lack of a better term). When played in QT, I get the commentary audio, and when played via EyeHome (same file), I get the music soundtrack which is the correct one. Why? When I view properties, I see two line items and one is MUXED mpeg2. If I uncheck it, I get only a audio file window instead of a video file window.

retrieving an incorrect file from you cache isn't likely to cause that problem. the opposite problem would be seen if a cached file were used: a new sound should play but an old one plays in its place.
more likely is a faulty setup on your part.

Cp5 playing wrong audio in Quiz

I have a Cp4 PowerPoint project that was upgraded to Cp5. The project has one quiz pool of 17 questions. I narrate the quiz questions for accessibility purposes. When previewed in Cp5, the audio for another quiz slide plays. They don't match up. It's as if the randomization of the quiz pool is confusing the audio that's supposed to play. Anyone else experiencing this? Any work arounds? This did not happen in Cp4.
TIA,
Jim Leichliter

I moved all quiz questions to the main timeline. Created a new question pool. Deleted the old empty question pool. Moved all of the question slides back into the new question pool. Deleted the random question slides and insterted new ones. Problem fixed.

Issues with buttons in Sum Total Mobile App

Are there any users of Sum Total LMS who are using the Sum Total app (as found on iOS and Android)? On iOS, the responsive course I have created runs fine UNTIL it gets to the QUIT button. I have created a simple button that exits the course. The button "clicks" (makes a sound, and shows the animation of being pressed) but nothing happens. I have SCORM set to test (which I can pass with 100%, but I don't get completed status in the SumTotal app (it just stays "in progress"). If anyone out there is successfully using the Sum Total App, please let me know, I would love to know how you are doing it.

After playing around with the settings, I found that if you have the "Assistive Input by Keyboard" under Options/Typing set to Predictive, it will interfere with any data that is keyed into the Facebook browser and cause it to freeze. I changed the setting to direct instead of Predictive and this resolved the issue. Thanks for your help!

Total Score in Sum Total not correct

We are using Captivate 4 and the Sum Total LMS. Our course consists of 2 lessons which are not scored and an assessment which is scored. The settings for the lessons are Slide Views Only so the lessons have the Topic Status Complete or Incomplete on the Sum Total LMS Learning Activity Progress Detail page, with the Score % blank. The assessment also has Topic Status Complete or Incomplete, and also a Score % (80% required to pass). The Topic Status and Score % values are correct for the lessons and the assessment, however the Total Score is not correct. When the user completes the 2 lessons and the assessment with a score of 100%, the Total Score shows as only 33%. So it seems that Sum Total is including the lessons in the Total Score, and calculating the Total Score by (100+0=0)/3 = 33%, i.e. assigning 0% to the lessons even though the Score % is blank for the lessons.
Is there a way to have the Total Score be just for the assessment? If the user scores 100% on the assessment we would like the Total Score to be 100%.

Hi,
Can you make your question more clear, it is not clear what is you requirement exactly.
'.Total stock not issued from gate in stock.' : Yuou mean to say GR made with 103 but 105 not done for that
or Total stock in store but not issued yet ) : there is no GI with any movemen type ??

Publish Captivate 4 module for Sum total

Hello everyone. I have two training modules that are not scored. They are demonstrations, not simulations. I need to publish them so that they can be added to a customers Sum Total LMS. What settings should I use when publishing to LMS? And any tips or tricks I should know? I do not have access to the LMS. For our training, we host our own internal web pages.
Thanks

Hi,
Thanks for the tips. I read some of the suggested resources, and created a click box on the last slide with click box settings as:
On Success --> Execute Javascript --> javascript:window.close()
... and Reporting settings as:
Include in Quiz (checked)
Report answers (unchecked)
Points = 1
Add to Total (checked)
The LMS system accurately flags the course complete, but the click action does not close / exit the module. This is a SCORM 1.2 module.
Any ideas? Is it possible to test this in HTML outside the LMS system, or am I forced to test this in the LMS system?
Thanks,
Henry

When i try to upload a .mts file from my Sony camera to Premiere Pro CC it refuses to play the audio! Ofcourse i could convert every single clip but it takes tons of time. How can i make Pr play audio track properly?

Does it not play at all or cannot you get the audio in the timeline?
Did you copy the entire card to the hdd and then imported the file via the Media Browser?
Did you source patch the audio tracks?

Quicktime not working after loading Lion. It is in Applications folder. It is dark when trying to play. Audio is there, no video. Is something set wrong?

Quicktime not working after loading Lion. It is in Applications folder. It is dark when trying to play. Audio is there, no video. Is something set wrong?

It is supposed to be dark.
Is it all videos that don't display or just some. You may have installed something like Perian or Flip for Mac that translates the video codecs for Quicktime. They may need updating.

Audio tracks play back wrong audio

at some point in my mix sessions , in different sessions , one of my audio tracks starts playing back audio from both its channel and another channel simultaineously. there not always adjacent tracks , not assigned to the same voice and have seemingly nothing in common. if i change voices i can sometimes allieviate the problem or it will start playing a different track audio simultaineously. i have two records pending and need some immediate help please...

D,
Just to warn you (or throw some experience in). Logic 7 has for me, operated poorly with sessions created from older versions of Logic. It is often fine if you just want to duck in and grab something but the sessions do go weird if you just keep using them they go batty and can often get kind of self destructive.
Updating/merging/replacing the environment is one of the first steps to take, just creating new updated objects helps, even using presets and channel strips from older versions seem to give problems. Copying objects and configurations over can give you different results, but basically the more you replace and create as new the less problems you'll have.
So you know you have alot of reworking to do if you really want to do alot of work with these in the current version. Determine where a good transition point would be and try to follow with that. Often mixing or sooner than later but plan on taking some time reworking things. It's almost easiest to just grab everything and paste it over into a 7 built autoload-without the plugins. Audio Objects and plugin instances seem to give alot of problems. I usually end up redoing a bunch of stuff if I have a ways to go and export away. Things really get fixed along the way but it is a pain and better to do it sooner. Unless you're coming up on a mixing stage or something soon I'd just do it (and keep a backup of the older versions just in case I want to retrieve something.
I am working on an album that was created on a 6 autoload and 12 of 13 tracks had to be reformatted in 7 from forward INcompatabilities-some of them twice because they did not get a 100% clean autoload (as in the instruments and/or audio objects were opied over). Maybe I'm just weird, don't take only my word on this because it is alot of work for many projects to just redo things like this but you should be aware of what some people have encountered and be prepared to take some of those steps if there are more people saying their experience has been like this.
Best of Luck

Design flaw in 'Play stereo audio as mono' of Universal Access Hearing-tab

The option to 'play stereo audio as mono' that comes with OSX 10.6 does not work as I expected.
When I enable this option it sounds like only one of the two channels becomes mono, while the other one does not sound mono to me.
It's hard to notice this, because the total sound does change to 'less' stereo.
I've done some testing with different soundcards and testing signals, and found out that when the option is enabled, the mono signals are routed incorrect.
While the right channel becomes mono, the left channel seems to be something else; I'm not sure if it's the original left channel of the stereo signal, though.
I have reason to believe that the resulting mono sound on the right channel correctly is the 'monofied original sound', but that from the left channel.
The resulting mono sound on the left channel sounds like the original left channel of the stereo sound, maybe added with the mono sound of the right channel.
Why do I think so? When using a sound card with more than two outputs, I can clearly see that sound is being sent to the second and the THIRD output, instead of the first and the second output, immediately after I enable mono. Resulting in output on THREE channels:
original left
monofied (left)
monofied (right)
On my soundcard I can disable the extra outputs, and than I hear:
original left + maybe monofied right
monofied (left)
I think the programmer of this great feature made an 'off-by-one error', consequently sending the monified output to the wrong channels;
to channel[1] + channel[2] instead of channel[0] + channel[1]
I don't know what happens to sound that is sent to channel[2] (the third channel) on a two channel soundcard.
It could be mapped to the the first channel, but that of course is speculation. Could be tested though, with the right audio signal.
I hope someone can confirm this. If more people experience this problem, maybe Apple can fix this so I can enjoy listening in mono.
I have tested this on the internal soundcard and three external firewire audio interfaces, of which 2 have 8+ output channels.
Thanks!

Thanks for the quick-and-dirty test.
Your findings are not a surprise to me.
It would be more interesting though to not use one's ears for proof.
Also, I have reason to believe that this result is valid for any two channel audio interface.
With the test below I can proof that audio is sent to three channels instead of just two, when enabling "Play stereo audio as mono" on an(y) audio interface with more than two outputs (enabled).
The test takes a little longer than the quick-and-dirty test.
If you don't have an audio interface with more than two channels of output, you can still perform the test by installing Soundflower first.
Soundflower is a virtual audio interface with multiple inputs and outputs, and can be used as an audio router or audio patchbay.
Get Soundflower from http://code.google.com/p/soundflower/ - it's free.
Here's the test …
Open System Preferences, choose the Sound prefpane and select the Output-tab
Select any audio interface with more than two channels of audio outputs as your sound output device ( Or use "Soundflower (16ch)" )
Keep the System Preferences open
Start Garageband
Create a new project
From Preferences select for Audio Input your interface-with-more-than-two-channels-of-audio ( Or use "Soundflower (16ch)" )
( selecting an Audio Output is not necessary, because we're not actually going to use our ears for proof )
Enable multitrack recording from the menu (Track / Enable multitrack recording )
Create four tracks as "Real instrument"; each one with an increasing Input Source: Mono 1, Mono 2, Mono 3, Mono 4
( the last one is just for verification )
Enable recording on these four tracks (if you can't select more than one, try enabling multitrack recording)
Open System Preferences, choose Universal Access (probably click 'Show All' first) and select the Hearing-tab
Make sure audio is played in stereo (unchecking the checkbox)
Keep the System Preferences open
Switch to the Finder or iTunes
Playback any song
Switch back to Garageband and check the meters on the individual tracks
( remember this is stereo, notice the number of channels with signal )
Switch back to System Preferences to enable mono (on the Universal Access prefpane)
Switch back to Garageband and check the meters on the individual tracks ( this is mono ! )
End of test ...
You will see that in mono a third audio channel is addressed, while there should have been only two in both mono and stereo.
The signal strength of channels 2 + 3 seem equal, and channel 1 looks much louder.
This difference in signal strength is very noticable when listening to channels 1 and 2 on separate speakers or headphone.
What is that playing on channel 3?
I must admit (against my original post) that this test does not proof that the signal on channel 1 is or is not mono or anything else; that requires another test.
One can of course record these channels and do some comparisons and subtractions or some other clever tricks.
Hope anyone can second this, preferably with an actual audio interface like Apogee Ensemble, Motu, RME, Presonus, Focusrite, etc.

Need a formula to calulate multiple cells and add the sum total to a cell in a other table

Im a chef and my monthly inventory is a time consuming task. I get invoices from multiple suppliers on each day of the week. I enter them into a spread sheet and then need to add the sum total for all the invoices for say MONDAY. That total needs to be entered into a cell in another table called "daily spend". Is there a formula to automatically add say all the invoices from monday and input the daily spend cell on that table. Here is an example
I created a column B-to give each day a number(sometimes multiple invoices come from the same supplier for each day)<GREEN>..If there was a way to do this differently...Im happy to change the layout of the spreadsheet. I want to add the total $ (column F) for each day together(all the blue fields) and then insert the total into another cell seen in the next table . So in this example its F4+F16+F17=?, ? inserted into N2 of the next table
Thanks so much

"I ve finally has a play with the advice you gave me but I have realized that the formula you gave me is for a week....and like I mentioned in my reply to you, one table is weekly the other is monthly....is there a way to overcome this? (my answer to you explains it)"
Hi Gavin,
Unfortunately, the scale of your illustrations in that reply made them difficult (or impossible) to read, even on the Retina screen.
The first formula, used to fill column B, extracts the Weekday number for each date. Since these numbers should be equivalent to the day of the month, You'll need to replace this with a formula that returns the Day value of each date:
Old:
B2: =WEEKDAY(A,2)
New:
B2: =DAY(A)
Fill down to end of column.
Because of the arrangeent of your Data table, you will need to repeat this formula in column H (with references to column G), etc. for each set of dates in the table.
The SUMIF formula in column F is fine as is, except that it assumes all condition data will be in column B of Data, and all data to be summed will be in column F of Data. Since this is obviously not the case for your Data table, you will need a separate iteration of the formula for each week in the table, with the four SUMIF statements enclosed in a SUM statement:
E2: =SUM(SUMIF(Data :: $B,A2,Data :: $F),SUMIF(Data :: $H,A2,Data :: $L),SUMIF(Data :: $N,A2,Data :: $R),SUMIF(Data :: $T,A2,Data :: $X))
Fill down for as many rows as there are days in the month being summarized.
Column references in the formula assume that six columns are used for each week, and that there is no gap in the table between weeks.
Note that the formula does not distinguish between transactions on July 7 and those on June 7 or August 7. Because of this, the Data table must be limited to transactions in a single calendar month.
Regards,
Barry

Flash CS3 Play/Stop audio button problem

I made a play/stop audio button with this youtube tutorial (youtube.com/watch?v=XU6oMEFUFF8) but after the sound is finished I want the play button to show up agian.
Here is the actionscript:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
play_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,clickha ndler);
stop_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,clickha ndler);
function clickhandler(event:MouseEvent):void{
swapChildren(play_btn,stop_btn);
what code should I add to my current code?
I also can send you the Fla.

You should consider using the Sound class. Here's a quick overview of it:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/as3/dev/WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d118a9b90204-7d21.html
You'll be able to add event listeners to the sound to know when it completes so you can execute more code, such as swapping the play and stop button. There is an example in that overview of listening for the SOUND_COMPLETE event (e.g. channel.addEventListener(Event.SOUND_COMPLETE, onPlaybackComplete);). It should contain everything you need.
A basic example of what you'll end up with (there's many ways to do it) might look something like this:
// just set up and wait for click
var isPlaying:Boolean = false;
var mySound:Sound = new MySoundInLibrary();
var myChannel:SoundChannel = new SoundChannel();
myChannel.addEventListener(Event.SOUND_COMPLETE, onPlaybackComplete);
// buttons
play_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,clickhandler);
stop_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,clickhandler);
function clickhandler(event:MouseEvent):void
          swapChildren(play_btn, stop_btn);
          if (isPlaying)
                    isPlaying = false;
                    myChannel.stop();
          else
                    isPlaying = true;
                    myChannel = mySound.play();
function onPlaybackComplete(e:Event):void
          isPlaying = false;
          swapChildren(play_btn, stop_btn);
The basic idea is keeping a flag if the audio is currently playing. If it isn't then assign the sound to a channel and play it while setting the flag (isPlaying) to true. If it's already playing, set the flag to false and stop playing the audio.
The swapChildren is run in the onPlaybackComplete() method so when the audio completes the play button is swapped back in front.
Rather than swapping the children I'd urge you to toggle the .visible property instead. It's easy to run commands in the wrong order and get desynched on depth.

Is it possible to play iTunes audio out through USB to receiver to power speakers?

I thought you should be able to.Play iTunes audio out through USB to a receiver equipt with USB mode as I can with my iPad Air, but I can,t find in preferences on my 2013 iMac any out put and I get no signal to the receiver/amp. Is it possible? What am I doing wrong?

Yes
A 3.5mm to RCA cable or adapter will work fine for stereo between the Mac's headphone jack and receiver's RCA input.
for example's
> http://www.amazon.com/RiteAV-3-5mm-Stereo-Female-Cable/dp/B0018MI5F6
> http://www.amazon.com/C2G-Cables-40645-Stereo-Adapter/dp/B000J1H4VI/
Additionally if your receiver is equipted with digital input, you could use a Toslink cable with a 3.5mm adapter on the Mac end.
