Users controlling video in Captivate

Hi guys,
I need to include a video in captivate and from what I can
see, it starts playing when I reach that particular slide. Will I
be able to give users better control on the video, for example, a
start/pause button, a replay button?
thanks
JT

Good morning JT
Assuming you are referring to a Flash Video here? If so,
there are settings for Flash Video that offer a "Skin" (playback
control). When you use a skin, normally the video is paused until
your user clicks the Play button.
If you are referring instead to a Full Motion clip, you could
use a Button or Click Box object to pause the slide.
Cheers... Rick

Controlling video independently from project controls

Hi! We are trying to make some specific thing in Captivate 5, Windows. Here is the description:
1. Make a new blank project (2 slides).
2. Insert FLV file on slide 2 (select skin 3).
3. Set video to autoplay.
4. Play the project (F4)
5. Pause the slide that contains the video - The video plays on.
6. You can now pause the video from its own skins control buttons.
7. When you set the video Timing: Synchronize with project, the video stops, when you pause the whole presentation, but you cannot control the video itself independetly from the presentation controls. You can only adjust the video volume.
Is there any way to make it work so, that when you pause the presentation, and the video pauses too, but then you can control the video, eg. scroll the progress bar and play? Scripts, actions, or something?
Cheers,
Jukka

You cannot do both - Either let the captivate synchromize the project and video or let the user control the playback (using a skin).
If you want captivate to do the synchronisation, then you can use this new feature in Captivate 5.0

Linking to external video in Captivate 7

I develop video-based training. Each slide includes mostly video. I've been successfully embedding f4v videos into Captivate projects for some time but video quality and file size issues make it necessary to begin linking to videos on external servers.
I've tried a number of options without success.
I create a video event, choose the url option, and add the url from the uploaded video. The only usable server choice is the Adobe Media Streaming Service. I've tested the videos on different servers including Amazon since the troubleshooting advice alerted me that only Adobe partners servers will be recognized. The project previews and the progress bar moves as if the video is playing but only the background file is visible. I tried all the preview options - no luck.
I decided to try the YouTube widget. I uploaded test videos to YouTube, inserted the Interaction widget and added the url, etc. This option results in a successful preview only when I choose the html 5 output in web browser option. Captivate will successfully publish the project but I get "Java Script Error unable to acquire LMS, API content, may not play properly" messages.
The published file performs like all of the unsuccessful previews. The file loads and acts as if the videos are playing in that the progress bar moves but there is no video, just the slide background image. I tried different output settings like just SWF, just html5, both SWF and html5, different versions of the flash player, etc. I also added the output folder to the Flash Global Security settings in case it was a permissions issue.
I'm working on a mac so I emailed a zipped file to my PC and tried to open in Internet Explorer to see if the file might play on a different system or browser - same outcome - no luck.
Making external video work is critical to my work and use of Captivate so I'm hoping there's something I'm missing or misunderstanding about what I need to do.
Any help or advice will be appreciated.

I'm continuing to have problems with the YouTube widget. My client sent me YouTube links and when I copied and pasted the new links into the Captivate file and the published and uploaded the file, the links didn't work.
To review, I uploaded video files to YouTube and used the interactions widget to insert the linked videos. The videos which I uploaded can be previewed in html5 in web browser but not in any other way. When I publish this file and view the file on my system on my browser (Safari) the file opens but the videos do not play. However, when I upload to my ftp site and open the file from there, the linked YouTube videos play.
So this led me to believe that I have a file that will work at least in html5 output. But when I replace the original YouTube links that I uploaded with new links provided by my client the videos preview in html5 in web browser mode but do not play on my system or when uploaded to my ftp site. All of the videos (mine and my clients) play in YouTube and preview in html5 mode.
Additionally, when I ouput the html5 file, the quiz doesn't work properly. The radio buttons don't appear on screen so when answers are selected the user has no way of knowing their selections have been accepted. Oddly, the quiz is registering answers since when you submit there is a brief flash during which you can see the buttons but they quickly disappear and results are tallied accurately at the end. But the quiz is unusable without user feedback for selections. You can view this performance beginning on the sixth slide (the beginning of the quiz).

Are html5 output files compatible with Learning Management Systems? Is there a way to use the YouTube widget in SWF output files?

Video in Captivate 7

Is there a way to modify the YouTube widget so you can play a video not hosted on YouTube. We have clients who definitely DO NOT want their videos hosted on anything but their own servers (due to confidential information). They are also running their training courses on iPads. I know you can insert a video that will play on an iPad, but, then there is no controller bar for the video. Which is very desirable to have believe it or not. If not modifying the YouTube widget, is there some other way to get a video to have a controller bar when playing on an iPad?
Thanks.

Hi Steve,
You can use hosted vidoes from a streaming server, if your organization has those.
But then if the videos are on a restricted server, you might run into problems making it accessible for your users (if they are scattered all over the places, especially not being in the same domain as the restrcited hosted server.)
You can try to downlaod and manually insert then to the Slide as Event Video/Multi Slide Sync Video, in both cases you can araange for a skin/playbar to control video.
Alternately, Can you try to open the URL for your Vidoe as an Action (on Enter Slide-- Open a File or URL) and see if that suits.
Thanks,
Anjaneai

Rotation of the user control in my Windows Store app

Hi everyone
I am making a Windows 8.1 app . I am struck up at a specific problem.
My problem is I have to add a rotation in my user control when it reaches the top of the page.
Here is my code sample that can be downloaded and here is the
video of the android version where we can get the rotation understanding.
I need to rotate the user control exactly the way it has been done in the Android app
I am completely clueless about this.
To operate the app , download it , run it on simulator , click/tap at a certain place , my user control appears and it clips the region around my finger and keeps moving with my finger.
Apoorv Kumar Upadhyay

That's a rotate transform in conjunction with moving the location of the item on a canvas. You should be able to figure it out from samples available on these topics.

Windows Phone - Cannot bind custom user controll with listview item source property

It is Windows Phone 8.1 (runtime)
I have some problem of binding custom user controll with list of data. I'll make it simple as I can.
My problem is that somehow if I use DataBind {Binding Something} inside my custom controll it will not work.
I need to transfer binded data (string) to custom controll.
It is strange that if I do not use DataBind, it will work normally. Eg MyCustomControllParameter = "some string" (in my example 'BindingTextValue' property)
Does anyone Know how to bind custom user controll with inside ListView with DataTemplate.
Assume this:
XAML Test-Main page
<Grid Background="Black">        <ListView x:Name="TestList" Background="#FFEAEAEA">                    <ListView.ItemTemplate>                <DataTemplate>                    <Grid Background="#FF727272">                        <local:TextBoxS BindingTextValue="{Binding Tag, FallbackValue='aSource'}" local:TextBoxS>                    </Grid>                </DataTemplate>            </ListView.ItemTemplate>        </ListView>    </Grid>
XAML Test-Main page c#
public sealed partial class MainPage : Page    {        List<TTag> tags = new List<TTag>();        public MainPage()        {            this.InitializeComponent();            this.NavigationCacheMode = NavigationCacheMode.Required;        }        public class TTag        {            public string Tag { get; set; }        }        private void InitializeAppData()        {            TTag tag = new TTag() { Tag = "hello world" };            tags.Add(tag);            tags.Add(tag);            tags.Add(tag);            TestList.ItemsSource = tags;        }             protected override void OnNavigatedTo(NavigationEventArgs e)        {            InitializeAppData();        }           }

Thanks for helping ;)

If you use a built-in control rather than your custom control, does binding work? You should verify that first.

The newest version of iTunes is awful when it comes to Cloud syncing-file management. I'm constantly frustrated with what iTunes 'chooses to eliminate from my mobile device and settings aren't fine-grained enough to allow for real user control.

I'm endlessly frustrated with iTunes Cloud syncing, something that was supposed to make lenjoying my music easier. I routinely find that, though itunes and podcasts have been split, iTunes arbitrairily removes music files or in progress podcast in favor of 'new' podcasts. The settings are just not fine-grained enough to allow true user control and so we are instead subjected to 'Apple knows best' protocols. I understand and appreciate the level of exacting control Apple excercises over their ecosystem, however, more and more often I see them tightening control over things that should be user control while dropping the ball on aesthetic desisions made in producing their own software (see the hideous pull down tab for iTunes to access Podcast, TV shows, Music, etc.
I would like to see features like those in Mail and the Podcasting apps implemented in iTunes afor the management of content on mobile devices, for instance it would be great to swipe to delete files that you know longer want on your device, at both the album and song level. Another issues is the new pushiness of iRadio and iTunes Store, the app now seems to default to the iRadio page (versus the last page Albums, songs, etc. that the user was navigating, or in the instance of the iTunes Store push, if I doon't have all the tracks of an album i own on my mobile device 'complete my album' takes you to iTunes store rather than showing the 'cloud' download icon next to missing tracks. These are the tactics I expect from Google, not Apple (pushing commerce over quality user experience).
Fix these things Apple, please.

How to show the text in a textBlock in my user control?

in my UC i have a textBlock . the text that i put through the xaml or the text that i put through the C# doesn't show:

</Grid>
</Grid>
</local1:Cell>
and the designer:
but, when debugging the text doesn't show:
i was told maybe to define the user control or the text as a dependency property, i don't know how to do it and maybe someone has a better solution?
thanks.

thanks. but i didn't really understand, maybe you can give an example with my parameters?
The text dependency property is called LabelFor.
It's this bit.
public string LabelFor
get { return (string)GetValue(LabelForProperty); }
set { SetValue(LabelForProperty, value); }
public static readonly DependencyProperty LabelForProperty = DependencyProperty.RegisterAttached(
"LabelFor",
typeof(string),
typeof(EditRow));
You would substitute the name of your usercontrol for EditRow when you cut and paste that into it.
There is a style which defines what EditRow looks like by giving it a template.
<Style TargetType="{x:Type local:EditRow}">
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type local:EditRow}">
<Grid>
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="{Binding RelativeSource={
RelativeSource FindAncestor,
AncestorType=local:EditRow},
Path=LabelWidth, TargetNullValue=2*}"/>
<ColumnDefinition Width="{Binding RelativeSource={
RelativeSource FindAncestor,
AncestorType=local:EditRow},
Path=PropertyWidth, TargetNullValue=3*}"/>
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding RelativeSource={
RelativeSource FindAncestor,
AncestorType=local:EditRow},
Path=LabelFor}"
HorizontalAlignment="Right"
Margin="0,4,0,0"/>
<Border Margin="6,2,6,2" Padding="0,2,0,2" Grid.Column="1" >
<ContentPresenter HorizontalAlignment="Stretch"/>
</Border>
</Grid>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
That uses binding to give the textblock text property the value of LabelFor.
You could instead put your markup directly in your usercontrol and bind it like that.
This bit would then pretty much cut and paste in
<TextBlock Text="{Binding RelativeSource={
RelativeSource FindAncestor,
AncestorType=local:EditRow},
Path=LabelFor}"
You would need two of course if you have two textblocks.
ps
People have suggested dependency property to you because this is how properties on wpf controls work.
If you instead chose to use properties then you lose the ability to set value by style, animation, binding etc Your usercontrol will not behave like a wpf control. This might not really concern you if you're just working on your own on an app.
It would if you were working in a team though.
Personally, I would reject code which exposed regular properties from a usercontrol at walk through.
Hope that helps.

Is there any user control on the iphone anymore?

Ok so I hate the new OS 7 but before you write me off as just complaining please read further:
I have a very hard time reading the phone because of the white backgrounds on everything , I understand some like this. Is there any way to change this?
I also can't read my text very well because of the white on green text bubbles ... Any way to change this?
Can someone please tell me what apple really did to enhance the user experience? And what is an important feature they have added to the new OS that really stands out over the 6 aside from the horrible layout change? I read what they said the new features were and I didn't see anything that wasn't just a cheap trick. Maybe someone can show me something that will revive some bit of like into the phone again?
But back to the settings change. I went to accessibility and upped the contrast and bolt text but that only helps slightly . I inverted the colors and thought awesome but then realized it inverts everything so that won't work. I could deal with black back grounds on everything .
Any help please ? I'm not made of money so I'm stuck with the 5 for a few weeks at least. Every time I use the phone it angers me so it's not a very pleasant experience !!!
Some people really have issues with the eyes and I just want to have a little control over the look of the phone. Really not digging the way it's swiped to delete now and the way they have the search and control panel I can't get a good swipe on those to save my life. Hate is a good word right now.

Those minimal changes do nothing that I asked. I'm not sure why you linked that. I have read the very simplistic, almost null, options of the ios7 . I appreciate the attempt to help. It seems that the answer is NO, there is no user control over the new layout.
My ultimate answer to gaining user control over their phone is to sell the iPhone and buy a galaxy .

I cannot get a WindowsForms user control hosted in WPF/C# to show() PDF please help

I have a WPF C# .NET 4.0. solution in VS2010 on Windows 7. It contains a WPF hosting project and a WindowsFormsControl project where I've created a UserControl that should display an Acrobat CAcroAVDoc object from the Interop.Acrobat SDK com object (latest).
The WPF Project contains this code to open a file which actually creates a new WindowsFormsUserControl (PDFViewerControl) that in turns opens the file, the UserControl is then added to a WindowsFormHost object in WPF main form.
private void OpenFile(FileItem file)
if (file.Extension.ToLower() == ".pdf")
System.Windows.Forms.Integration.WindowsFormsHost host = new System.Windows.Forms.Integration.WindowsFormsHost();
WindowsFormsControls.PDFViewerControl viewer = new WindowsFormsControls.PDFViewerControl();
viewer.Show();
Boolean result = viewer.OpenFile(file.Path);
if (!result)
MessageBox.Show("Error opening document");
host.Child = viewer;
this.pdfViewWpf.Children.Add(host);
viewer.Show();
The PDFViewerControl OpenFile method contains this code and returns True when opening a PDF document via OpenInWindowEx.
public Boolean OpenFile(String filename)
CAcroAVDoc doc = Activator.CreateInstance(Type.GetTypeFromProgID("AcroExch.AVDoc")) as CAcroAVDoc;
bool res = doc.OpenInWindowEx(filename, this.Handle.ToInt32(), 2, 1, 0, (short)Acrobat.PDViewMode.PDUseBookmarks, (short)Acrobat.AVZoomType.AVZoomFitWidth, 0, 0, 0);
return res;
Unfortunately though the PDF cannot be seen in WPF Host object. If I place a LABEL on the windows forms user control, the label will show in WPF. It seems the OpenInWindowEx is not loading a PDF object onto the user control. Perhaps I need a resize method and event?
I cannot locate any object on the PDFViewerControl user control that resembles a PDF document through debug.
Any help/pointers much appreciated.
this.Handle.ToInt32() does have a seemingly valid value (ie window handle).
this.pdfViewWpf is a XAML <Grid>
Dominic

On further testing, I found the above code does actually work, BUT the HOST or the VIEWER or the DOC object disappear after the routine is finished. I placed a label on the UserControl and noticed a flicker on the crseen draw which I capture on camtasia the result can be viewed here. http://www.screencast.com/t/Z49gUTb3Xt
Given the label is still around after the file open routine completes suggests the HOST and VIEWER objects are still exposed, just the DOC object resizes to zero height and width or just plain gone.
Without the Label, same result.
Any thoughts on how to retain the display of the CAcroAVDoc object would be much appreciated.

VB ActiveX User Control fails to install on Windows 8 using IE10 with Code Download Error: (hr = 80070005) Access is denied.

I have a VB VS2008 (.Net 2.0) ‘pure’ .NET based user control which used to be hosted in Internet Explorer.
Because that approach is no longer possible in VS2013 (.Net 4.5) I have converted it to an VB ActiveX user control.
This process involves digitally signing the user control DLL.
Creating a setup project resulting in a setup.exe and MyUserControl.msi.
Digitally signing both those components and then producing a cab file (which again is digitally signed).
IE10 should then be able to install this using an object tag as follows
<object id="editor" height="100%" width="100%"
classid="clsid:EA47DB16-9272-4CB3-A800-C369A479396A" codebase="cab\MyUserControl.cab#Version=6,0,11,1" VIEWASTEXT>
If I use the setup.exe and MyUserControl.msi directly on the client windows 8 machine before starting IE10 then the control is already installed (shows up in Programs and Features) and it works.
If I don't do this and let IE install the control then it doesn't work.
What I see is the IE prompt
This website wants to install the following add-on: 'MyUserControl.cab'
Clicking on install produces the User Account Control MsgBox
Do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer
Clicking yes doesn't install the control as expected
The inf file that I'm using is currently

[Setup Hooks]

run="%EXTRACT_DIR%\setup.exe"
I have defined the registry setting ForceCodeDownloadLog
Examining the temporary internet files location after trying to install using IE10 I can see the following
*** Code Download Log entry (15 Jan 2015 @ 11:49:18) ***

The problem here was the cab file.
Using ProcessMonitor I found that the following entry was generated at the time of failure
16:48:00.9222751 2920 IEInstal.exe CreateFile
C:\Users\Jim\AppData\Local\Temp\IDC2.tmp\setup.exe NAME NOT FOUND Desired Access: Read Attributes, Read
Control, Synchronize, Dis, Options: Synchronous IO Non-Alert, Non-Directory File, Disallow Exclusive, Attributes: n/a, ShareMode: None, AllocationSize: n/a
Analysis of the contents of the cab file using PeaZip indicated that it didn't contain setup.exe which confused me for a while as the makecab /f MyUserControlSetup.ddf produced no errors.
The MyUserControlSetup.ddf contained
.Set DiskDirectoryTemplate=cab
.Set CabinetNameTemplate=DocEditor.cab
MyUserControlSetup.inf
MyUserControlSetup.msi
setup.exe
Using makecab /f MyUserControlSetup.ddf /v3 I saw that the output was being written to 3 'disk' files but only one was present in explorer after it finished.
So I guessed that the output was for floppy disks and changed MyUserControlSetup.ddf to contain
.Set MaxDiskSize=CDROM
.Set DiskDirectoryTemplate=cab
.Set CabinetNameTemplate=DocEditor.cab
MyUserControlSetup.inf
MyUserControlSetup.msi
setup.exe
PeaZip now indicated that the cab file contained the 3 files I expected and using that cab in the codebase attribute installed my ActiveX control

Buttons to control video not working

I have tried to make simple buttons to control play, stop, paus and play again of a video. When that did not work I found the below instructions, and made movieclips for the buttons to use with the imported FLVPlayback (with none skin).
In step 2 I choose play (for the first play-button/movieclip).
In step 3, there is no video to choose in the box - only my own movieclips.
In step 4 - what's the difference?
In step 5 - there is no setting field...
Control video playback using behaviors
Select the movie clip to trigger the behavior.
In the Behaviors panel (Window > Behaviors), click the Add (+) button, and select the desired behavior from the Embedded Video submenu.
Select the video to control.
Select a Relative or Absolute path.
If required, select settings for the behavior parameters and click OK.
In the Behaviors panel under Event, click On Release (the default event) and select a mouse event. To use the On Release event, leave the option unchanged.

what's the instance name of your component and show the code you used for your play button.

User Control screwed up but unable to click on icons with Mouse on OSX 10.8

I dont know what has happened, but today user control with mouse and trackpad on my macbookpro is screwed up.
I rebooted twice, it made no difference.
The trackpad moves the cursor okay, but I cannot get tapping or clicking the trackpad have any effect.
With my mouse I can access menubars, but the left and right buttons are swapped round, or it might be that the right button is acting as both left and right button.
I then went to the System Preferences screen to try and fix the mouse preferences, but clicking on any icon with left or right button has no effect.
I then found no icons of that type seem to work, I thought Id try and just update OSX with any updates available hoping that would fix anything that has got corrupted. But although I can get to the Appstore Update screen and there are two updates available I cannot get the updates installed. Clicking with the left button does nothing, clicking with right button changes the colour of the button slightly so the bottom half is in gray but nothing else happens.
As there is no menu option to install the updates I thought I tried and install the updates using the keyboard but I cannot work out how to do this.
Does this sound like a hardware or software problem

How to create a cluster with a User control (.ctl) programatically using VI scripting?

Solved!
Go to Solution.

It seems that you hit the Post button before you had a chance to use the body of the message to give more detail on what you are trying to do.
Perhaps you can post whatever VI you have so far and also the user control you are trying to use.
