Question

CPVC demonstration won't load or play

Hi,

I recorded a short cpvc video of the screen while demo-ing an application.

It plays perfectly in Preview, both right after saving, as a cpvc file, and after loading into the cptx project. In Preview it looks great..

When I publish the project, the demo does not load. I just get the endlessly spinning wheel.

I'm using a 30 day trial of Captivate 9 on a Windows 10 machine with lots of capacity.

What is wrong here? What can I do to get it to load and play?

Thanks!

Hello all,

I take it this post is still open. I'm also having the same problem, even after publishing using every option there is to a web server.

Played separately, the .cptx project and the .cpvc demos play perfectly. Pull the .cpvc slide into the .cptx project and the playback hangs on the first frame and I get that spinning wheel in a black box. This goes on for the length of the demo slide, then advances to the next. It just doesn't play.

Anybody found a way around this?


Thanks

Do both projects have the same resolution?

Did you upload to a LMS or a webserver?

No. I just want to play it from my computer.

That cpvc-slide publishes to a MP4 video and it has to load. Is that a very large file?


Did anyone close the loop on this question?  I'm having the same issue.

thanks
