Screen goes red

I think that if the file is too large, and if the resources are exhausted, you get something called the "Red Screen of Death", equivalent to the "Blue Screen of Death".

The behavior that is being described here has nothing to do with resources, nor with the size of the file ... did you perhaps post this reply to the wrong thread?

I am having the same issue as PaulBennett. How do I know what to change the display time and frame rate to, and how do I know what frame to change?

The changes are usually a "season to taste", or "trial and error" thing when changing frame rate or display time. There may be a more scientific method, but someone else will have to step in for that. I have had success changing display time by as little as a tenth of a second (0.1).

Thanks to Captiv8or for the tips.

I am having the same issue as PaulBennett. How do I know what to change the display time and frame rate to, and how do I know what frame to change?

Just made changes and it all seems to work. The movies I'm using were captured with Captivate 2 apart from one clip. Would this have been enough to create errors within the rest of the movie?

Thanks again

Check:
1) Display time for the animation may need to be adjusted a tiny amount, or

2) Frame rate for the animation may need to be changed if it conflicts with the movie frame rate.

It only seems to happen on slides that contain animations because it is the animation that is causing the problem, so "tweaking" its settings can usually solve the problem.

Hope that helps with this issue ... and welcome to the Captivate user forums.
