Why don't my SWF Movies Play in Presenter

Question

I created some demos in Captivate and saved as a SWF file.

I have a PPT presentation that I inserted the SWF movies into and they play fine when I do a PPT slideshow.

However, when I publish the presentation, Presenter's player rushes over the slide (I'm assuming because there is no audio recorded in presenter for the slide since the audio is part of the movie) and the movie doesn't play.

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Or is there a way to make Presenter stop playing when it gets to my demo slide and allow the user to click a button that opens the demo in a new window?

90% of my project is PPT slides w/Audio so I'd rather publish this in Presenter and not in Captivate.

AirCK,I'm surprised that noone's responded to your question, but I'd also suspect that you've found the answer by now. If you're still concerned about how Presenter ignores your Captivate content in the published version of your PPT deck, one of the first things I'd check is the Slide Properties dialog box. By selecting the Advanced By User option, this will prevent the slide that contains your Captivate movie from prematurely advancing before you have a chance to see that content.Once the playback scrubber reaches the end (which by default is set to 5 seconds) it'll just sit there....at that point the learner/user can click either the Play button or the Next button to advance to the next slide manually.Robwww.robrode.com/yabb/
