    OK.  Well 5 meg is not a large video.  When you say you have a "loading issue", what do you mean? 

     

    It is normal for a loading animation to play briefly when entering a slide that has a slide video.  How long that animation plays will depend on the size of the video and the user's available bandwidth as well as the load that the web server is currently under. 

     

    However, if you are testing this playback using Captivate's Preview in HTML5 then the video should play almost immediately.  Are you testing from a web server or locally using localhost?

    thanks for your responses

     

    when captivate file with video slides packaged and hosted in LMS. It takes time to run by stating " Pls Wait" for every few seconds.

     

    Normally if a video duration is 1 min, but it takes to complete aprox 3 mins to completed by showing pls wait buffering

    And your videos are how big?  (megabytes)

    And the available bandwidth is how big? (kilobits per second)
