Move to specific point in video playback

I'm using Captivate 9.  When playing a video, is it possible to move to different parts of the video based on clicking?  Let's say I have five buttons, can I assign the first button to move to 10 seconds into the video and play, the 2nd button 20 seconds into the video and play, etc?

Thank you,

Jeff

    Easiest way will be to use multislide video and spread the video over slides in chunks of 10secs. You can try micronavigation, but not sure it will work perfectly.

    Thank you Lilybiri!  I tried Micro-Naviation and splitting the video up into separated pieces on the timeline, and that worked well.

    Question, when using the multislide method:  Is there a way to tell it where the breakpoints should be?   It seems to choose them for me when it distributes the video over a series of slides.

    Thanks!

    Use Video, Edit Video Timing, same way as for audio: you'll be able to change where the next slide happens.
