Question

Mp4 video multi-slide effects publish to html

Captivate 9.0.2.437

Goal:

Have an mp4 inserted as multi-slide synchronized video. (We use multi-slide video insertion only to pause the video if the user pauses the course, although this video will exist only on one slide).

We have the desire to have the video ease in slowly from the left (effect). It will start slightly rotated left. We have the desire for the video to end in straight position. We assumed we would use the rotate effect to land the video straight.

Issue:

Even with only the ease in effect applied and previewing html5 in browser, the video never appears.

Any advice?

    "My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with the girl who saw Ferris pass out at 31 Flavors last night. I guess it's pretty serious..."

    Aside from that... I got the same error when I published a slide using the same set up as html 5, and got a "+" sign rotating in with a loading icon when I did it as as swf. Still trying to discern what the heck is going on here.

    OK - on further review - I still have no idea why it will not show up in html5  as a multi-slide synchronized video (in a swf format I get a "+" sign and a loading icon). The audio runs, but the video does not display - since its an mp4 with integrated audio, I'm going to assume (and we all know what that means, right?) that the glitch has something to do with a loading issue surrounding this approach. (best guess - the video/slide is trying to load as the effect is being executed and the project can't execute all the calls simultaneously?)

     

    That being said - I was able to get the video to ease in and play and show by loading it as an embedded video. You can set up the slide to pause until the video is complete, set the video to autoplay on entrance to the slide, and pause the embedded video using the html5 playbar included in video in the published package, so the project pauses until the user completes the video - would that work for you?

    "Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it."

    Thanks for looking at this. This option doesn't work for me. The video is active for only about 12 seconds. There is no audio in my video.

    After it eases in for about 3 seconds and plants itself on the left side of the screen there are more objects (non-video) easing in, so we cant pause the slide. I'm just going to have it fade in.
