BTW it’s not a problem if I make the slide progress ‘by user’ but I was hoping to have it go back to the title menu automatically and when you do ‘by user’ the little pause/play button flashes the whole time and if yo upress it it leaves the video.

Great post – I use Captivate and Articulate combined all the time and just figured I couldn’t use the skin.

However I am having a problem; when I open the published file the video starts but after about 5 seconds it closes down (the video is much longer than that). I’ve tried this on a few videos and it always happens. My flv’s do have interactions, is this a problem?

I’ve inserted a Captivate in my Articulate course and set it up to open in a new window.
Right now, users would have to click the X on the top right of the top window to return to
the main course window.

Is there any way to get the new window to close automatically at the end of the demo?

Hi Harriet, Captivate 5 uses ActionScript 3 which causes problems when placed in Articulate. This blog article should help. Regards,

Hi, Laurie,
I’m having the same problem – just purchased Captivate 5. I created a flash movie as a test and inserted into an Articulate Presenter 09 program, using “insert flash movie”. It works fine in the demo window, but when I run the Articulate program, it goes crazy with static, jumping, flashing, etc.

Did you ever get an answer to your question above?
