Ebeding problems
Hi
I cant be only one with the embedding issues that crop up with Adobe Captivate.
All is 100% ok if you take the html and use this on a page. But what if you dont want that? For example I recently started to use WordPress for my site. (I will never go back to building websites in Dreamweaver) I use video extensively to teach trading and about my software. I have used Robo Demo for years.
Problems arise when you try to embed into a php page in WordPress it Just aint gona do it! OK so a work around, is to get a plugin that will allow it. This works for ANY swf except Captivate.....now why would that be? I suspect that adobe do something at publish time, but thats another story.
I can get a captivate video to play on a wordpress site by using a plugin and entering the following.
[kml_flashembed movie=" http://www.learningtotrade.com/videos/SiteVideos/TestEditor4.swf" height="510" width="640" /]
BUT! It has not got a player around it, so thats a real bummer.
Ok take the swf file that captivate creates and load it into a player creator (dead simple, done it tons of times)
click OK to wrap the captivate swf into a new player. Point to note here is that this works with ANY swf files EXCEPT once again you guessed it Adobe Captivate.
What is going on here. There are millions of WordPress sites possibly billions by now! What is adobe up to that is preventing Captivate from putting out a simple swf file that can then be wrapped in a player of choice?
Dont get me wrong here I am MORE than happy to use an ADOBE player as long as I can embed and play in a WordPress page.
Any help GREATLY appreciated, been at it for about 20 hours just get it to show
Thanks
