Question

Is there a way to change the inserted media event video playback control skin in Captivate 2019?

Thank you for reviewing...

 

I'd like to add video playback controls that allow learners to pause, mute, and restart (but not skip ahead) an inserted event video that is autoplaying in a slide.

 

I changed the skin using style properties, but when previewing or publshing, the playback controls switch to a default skin that allows full playback (skipping ahead) controls. (SEE IMAGE)

 

A bit supprt page research (found in this post) suggests those skins only work for SWF content not the commonly used HTML5???

 

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Misunderstanding of that thread. Difference with SWF output is that the control panel of Event video appears in HTML5 only when you hover over the bottom of the video. Maybe less variations in style are possible as well but that control panel is functional.

    You don't have any control over the control panel used for Event video, because that type of video plays independently from Captivate. What you want can be done if you insert the video as Slide video, because that video is synchronized with Captivate's timeline, and you can use custom buttons.
