Is it possible to play two videos at the same time in Captivate 4

My idea is to create some e-learning material which shows a screencast of a powerpoint presentation and a video in the top left corner of the screen showing somebody presenting the slides.

Does anybody know if it is possible to do this with Captivate 4?

I know this functionality is provided in Adobe Director.

Any help regarding this will be greatly appreciated

Kind Regards

Hi there

Captivate will allow you to import or record the PowerPoint slides. When you do this, you should end up with many different slides as you have in PowerPoint (depending on how you accomplished it). You may also include a video that you inset on a particular slide or on other different slides.

While the technical answer is yes, you may play two videos simultaneously in Captivate, the realistic answer is answered with another question. How long is a piece of string? And the answer to that, of course, is "it depends".

Cheers... Rick

Thanks for your reply Rick.

You have got me thinking.

What if I use just one Powerpoint slide, and then on that slide, I include two videos which run simultaneously.

One video will be of the Actual presentation slides, and the other video will be of somebody presenting those slides.

Do you think that will work?

Thanks

Hi Jay

Do you have the eLearning Suite? If so, you have Adobe Presenter available to you. If you don't, you should be able to download the Presenter installation file and evaluate it.

Presenter is an add in for PowerPoint. The neat thing about it is that it provides for a Table of Contents type of functionality as you see is configured in Captivate. But the twist with that is you are able to do something you cannot do in Captivate. You are able to insert videos inside the TOC area!

Just musing out loud... Rick
