We have tried a number of different ways of producing the wording and allow plenty of time for each paragraph, but Captivate is still missing out words at the end of sentences. We have been working with the Adobe team since December and tried all the suggestions below but still not resolved. Any new suggestions welcome?? 🙂

  • Play Modules in Google Chrome
  • Balabolka voice test
  • Neo Speech voice test
  • Updated to latest version 11.5.5
  • Cleaned Program Preferences - Cleanpreferenceswin.bat file.
  • Preloader set to 100%
  • Removed Project.txt file before we upload module to elearning platform

BIt confusing: are you talking about Captivate PRIME?  It may be a typo? If the answer is yes, please post in the Prime forum. This is the Captivate forum.  I may need to edit your topic title if the answer is No.

Yes its Captivate Prime, a bit confusing having the Captive icon CP the same as the Captivate Prime icon. Never noticed that there was the same icon way down the list, will move my comments

You were moved back by someone else. I didn't move before asking.

 

Can you insert a screenshot of a timeline? I suspect that you didn't leave a gap before and after the audio timeline, at least if you are indeed talking about Slide audio.

 

Reason:  audio files neede to be loaded On Enter of each slide and can have a big file size. Moreover when they run from the first to the last frame, it is possible that Captivate sees audio file on a sequence of slides as one audio clip, and that takes even more time to load. By using those gaps, which need to be done manually this can be avoided.

 


My colleague had previously tried the space at the start of the slide audio in the timeline as per your screen dump, but don't think they did one at the end, will try that thank-you.

We are also doing audio's against each caption that comes in, to stagger their display time, should we do a gap at the end of those as well?
