feedback at specific time on paused event video

[darthgator]

Hi All,

I'm trying to allow learners to pause an event video - I used Paul's tutorial to create play/pause buttons (which works great!). Now I want the learners to receive feedback if they pause either too early, too late, or at the right time.

So - video plays, learner is instructed to pause when they see a certain thing on video, if they get the right timing they get a Positive feedback, if they are too early  or too late, they get a "too early" or "too late" feedback.

Any suggestions? Tutorials? Help please?

AFAIK that is not possible with event video, only with slide video. Except if you script with JS. Event video plays totally independent from Captivate's timeline, whereas slide video is synchronized which allows to track the frame where the pause happens.

Ok. Thanks. I'll have to see if the pause/play buttons still work in slide video.

That will not be the case, I fear.

Have a look at:

 You willl need the timing system variables to create and pop up the feedback messages as well.
