Question

Captivate 9 Bookmarking

I am not all that new to Captivate but definitely do not code. I am having issues with the bookmarking in a Captivate 9 course that I was hoping someone could help with and had a simple solution to. I have a few plain jane slides before a video ( that is not set to autoplay ) and then several questions after it. If I stop the course after answering the first question the bookmark takes me to the video instead of the second question. If I watch the video all the way through I then see the second question and not the first. It is like the video did not have anything to really do with the bookmarking??? Hell maybe bookmarking is not the issue and it has more to do with my video slide settings???

No Clue???

    Can you check Advanced Interaction panel (F9)? You do not have a scored object on that video slide?

    What I am saying is that the Advanced Interactions panel lists all slides in the project, but it's purpose is to really to help you see all slides that have interactive objects that may or may not be reporting to the quiz and therefore could be tracked in the LMS.  This dialog does not list all objects on the slides, only interactive objects.  Since videos are NOT interactive objects, they don't appear listed in the Advanced Interactions panel.

    Videos in mobile devices and mobile browsers often work differently to videos in desktop browsers.  Get used to the fact that what works one way on a desktop won't necessarily work the same way in HTML5 on a mobile.


    That panel explanation makes perfect sense. I can understand that mobile can sometimes yield different behavior than a desktop but I would have thought HTML5 or Flash on a desktop should both behave the same. Any idea why a video on page 2 would play over page 3 content if the bookmark was for page 3? Im not really understanding how that communication works to allow content on a previous page to be displayed. Is it a bug or do you think it could have been in the slide/video settings?

    My original settings for the video content on a slide were to Display For: Duration of Video, the slide time matched the video length and I used autoplay......I changed it to Rest of Slide, and checked Pause Slide till End of Video and set the slide to 1 second so there was not much of a delay before going to the next slide.

    Thanks,

    Rod
