Question

Pause FMR recording and video playback capture not working??

Hello!

I'm trying to record full motion recording in CAPTIVATE, but the PAUSE feature looks like it is not working for me. I even tried to modify the shortcut key, but nothing works. Anybody else have this trouble or am I missing something obvius here?? I thought that maybe the FMR mode cannot be PAUSED, but nothing on that matter can be found in the manual.

Also, I'm trying to produce e-learning content for PREMIERE and SOUNDBOOTH. I've noticed that video playback within PREMIERE is not captured by CAPTIVATE. I've seen on the forum that others had this issue. Is version 5 of captivate behaving the same? Is it still not possible to capture onscreen video playback?

Any info here would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

I'm having the same problem where Captivate 5 in FMR doesn't respond to the Pause key, however I'm noticing that there hasn't been a solution supplied here.

Is there another location/forum where Adobe representatives for Captivate are actively monitoring questions and problems for this product?

I'll submit a wish/bug, as per Rick.

That said, if anyone finds a solution that'd be great. I was really hoping to use the Pause during FMR. I am having the same problem on Captivate 5.5 with Windows 7 SP1.

I have the same problem.  Running MacOS 10.6.7, Captivate 5.  I've tried pausing the live recording (full motion) in Keynote (iwork 9) and PowerPoint (ms office 2011) and pausing doesnt pause in either one.  The only time Pause does work is if Captivate is in the foreground while recording.  End Recording keyboard shortcut works, just not Pause.

And it is definitely ONLY with FMR.  Works in Demo/Training mode.  Which is what I'm using as a fallback mechanism.

If anyone has solved this problem (with a certain key code combination), I'd be interested in knowing about it.

Thanks,
