Integration of Captivate with Flash

• Check the values of variables in Captivate with Flash AS2 animation

  I created a couple of simple buttons Pause/Resume Flash AS2 to manipulate playback from Captivate using the following script:

  on (release) {}
  _parent._parent.rdcmndResume = 1;
  }

  on (release) {}
  _parent._parent.rdcmndPause = 1;
  }

  The buttons work as expected if their ' display for: "values are set to"Rest of project"."  The buttons seem to have no effect on the reading of Captivate so "show:" is set to anything else.

  The problem is that I was hoping to only display buttons when I want the user to suspend or resume the chronology of Captivate.  However, for some reason that I don't understand, they do not work when their ' display for: "value"point in time ".

  No idea why the buttons to behave the way they do or ideas on how to make them do what I wish they would do?

  Hi Luc Pra.

  When ' show:' is selected as the rest of the project / duration of the animation, swf loader will be placed on the chronology of the Captivate SWF.

  When ' show:' is selected as the precise moment / slide rest, swf loader will be placed inside the slide (slide is placed on the Captivate swf timeline).

  So try it when ' show:' is specific time / rest of slide:

  on (release) {}
  _parent._parent._parent.rdcmndResume = 1;
  }

  on (release) {}
  _parent._parent._parent.rdcmndPause = 1;

  }

  I hope this helps.

• try to export a video clip, but it's not compatible with flash player 17. Help?

  I'm trying to export a video clip, but it indicates that it contains features that are not compatible with flash player 17 and don't work every time, I tried exporting in different ways and using parameters different flash player, but nothing seems to work. It displays a message at the bottom of the screen, but I don't know how to solve this problem. Once I have try to export the adobe media encoder file opens and shows me a video file, but it lacks almost everything I did and is not what I'm trying to export. I hope you can help, thanks Caitlin

  You cannot export the integrated H.264 video. If you try to put animations on top of some videos, do export you already, but it does not send through Adobe Media Encoder. There is also a checkbox to ignore the color of the scene and to generate an alpha channel. Do it too. You should end up with a MOV file that can sit on top of the original video, click, in After Effects or Premiere.

• How can I really associate .as ActionScript with Flash Builder file in Windows 8?

  How can I really associate .as ActionScript with Flash Builder file in Windows 8?

  In Windows 7, you have to go to preferences - Flash Builder - File Associations, etc. There is no file Associations in the Windows 8 version: (see image)

  Adobe made a web page that indicates that you must use Windows Explorer to associate FlashBuilder.exe .as files, but it does not work: http://helpx.Adobe.com/Flash-Builder/KB/unable-set-default-file-associations.html

  FlashBuilder.exe does not support opening a file .as like that. Flash Builder attempts to launch a new process and requires a different workspace to be able to open a Windows file. So either Adobe should add support for binding to the Windows 8 file in Flash Builder, or it must be a setting that prevents the Flash Builder to open a second instance of process.

  

  I found a solution. I used a Windows 7 machine that is the file association appropriate and observed the key of Windows registry using regedit.exe. I exported the key and made a .reg file and copied on my machine Windows 8. After installing registry keys, the associated file did not immediately because Windows 8 has this key to the user choice that always associates the file .as with Flash Professional. So after installing the underside of the keys, then I used Windows Explorer to associate files with Flash Builder .as and my file associations work as expected. It is an Adobe specific integration problem that must be fixed on the end of Adobe to support file associations in Windows 8.

  Success as follows:

  (1) install the registry keys below

  (2) use the Windows Explorer to always associate FlashBuilder.exe .as files

  ========================================================================================

  copy the below into a file with the .reg extension. Then use the "Merge" command to Windows Explorer to install in the registry

• Captivate and Flash

  Hello

  I made a captivate content with flash animation and I puslihed on a LCMS.

  When I run it, I heard the noise of the first flash animation, the captivate content is not loades, so I do not see the first slide...

  The second problem happened when I click on the button "Pause". The content captivate paused but not the flash animation, why?

  Concerning

  Ahh... Ok.  It would be probably due to Audio compression settings you use in Flash.

  Go back to your Flash file and change the settings in publication for the quality of the Audio.  By default, they are not very high, which means that once you pull the audio in Captivate and compressed here as well as become very degraded.

  Experiment a bit until you find a combination of settings that seems OK. It means that your size is likely to increase.

• Passage of variables in Captivate to Flash widget

  Hello

  I'm developing a widget progress bar simple in Flash to add a Captivate course that I build.  I think that what I want to do is very simple, but I seem to be missing something.

  Quick description:

  • I created a variable in Captivate 5.5 called intProgress , which should be a percentage of the student throughout the course. I set this manually via a tip Action entering the slide.
  • I also created a widget in Flash 5.5 progress bar.  It consists of nothing other than a manual progress bar in Flash component.
  • I want to feed this intProgress of Captivate my Flash widget value and accordingly update the progress bar.

  Here is my function (PDB is my progress bar)-

  function courseProgress (intPercentage)

  {

  aPb.setProgress (intPercentage, 100)

  }

  And here's how I'm trying to pass the variable:

  courseProgress (MovieClip .intProgress (root));

  It does not resemble the variable is coming in front of Captivate to the widget.  How to do this?

  Please let me know what I am doing wrong or what I'm missing here.

  Thanks for any help anyone can provide!

  Daniel

  
  

  
  

  I think that your problem is that you have this code in the cpSetValue() function which is called only once at the beginning of the film. If the variable cannot be read at the beginning of the film and is not updated for each slide.

  Try to add this code to your cpSetValue() function:

  addEventListener (Event.ENTER_FRAME, updateProgress);

  And to put this function outside of it:

  function updateProgress(e:Event):void

  {

  myText.text = "label:" + m_VariableHandle.cpInfoCurrentSlideLabel;

       myText.text = "prog:" + m_VariableHandle.intProgress;

  }

  Now the code above is not very effective. Basically it updates the text box with the variable for each frame of the movie. However, if it works, I'll go into details on how you can get it to update only when you enter into a slide.

• Firefox freezes - icon flashing task bar - seems the problems with flash - reinstalled both

  Using firefox 31.0 and uses the latest version of flash

  Often when visiting places such as youtube - firefox hangs with the firefox icon will blink in the taskbar - I have no open windows and it's a newish windows machine 7 - have reinstalled the two fire Fox and flash and still have the issue.

  Help / advice would be much appreciated

  Hello

  Some problems with Flash video playback can be resolved by disabling hardware acceleration in Flash Player settings. (See this article for more information on using the Flash plugin in Firefox).

  To turn off hardware acceleration in Flash Player:

  1. Go to the Adobe Flash Player help page.
  2. Right-click on the Flash Player logo on this page.
  3. Click settings on the shortcut menu. The Adobe Flash Player settings screen opens.
  4. Click the icon in the lower left of the Adobe Flash Player settings window to open the display panel.
     
     

     

  5. Remove the enable hardware accelerationcheck box.
  6. Click close to close the Adobe Flash Player settings window.
  7. Restart Firefox.

  This Flash Player help - display settings page contains more information about the Flash Player hardware acceleration, if you are interested.

  Does this solve the problem? Let us know.

• Web site keeps refreshing with flash game to "Application activation" - Version 26.0

  Updated to v26.0 and now when I open the site http://www.dcpages.com/ wuth the value "Application activation" flash payer page refreshes continuously. It wasn't a problem with v 25.0. I also have a second machine running Windows 7 (64 bit) and it has the same symptoms.

  Hmm, okay, we'll take a break until the cleaning is complete.

  This is for possible later use, some standard information that addresses the most common issues with the Flash Player plugin. I'm sure you've seen some of it before, but just in case:

  (1) If you have any recorders/downloaders who interact with Flash media to ensure that they are as up-to-date as possible, or disable them temporarily.

  (2) disable graphics hardware acceleration in Firefox and Flash

  (A) in Firefox, uncheck the box here and restart:

  the button Firefox orange (or the Tools menu) > Options > advanced > General > "use hardware acceleration when available.

  (B) in Flash, see this article from Adobe technical support: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues

  (3) turn off mode protected (Windows Vista and later)

  See this article from Adobe support under the heading of 'Last resort': Adobe Forums: how to fix protected Flash Player for Firefox mode?

• Firefox LAGS like hell with Flash

  OK, here's the deal.

  After a long use Firefox starts trolling like crazy with Flash. And... It doesn't seem to be a problem with Flash. It is more likely that the browser itself which is the origin of the problem.

  After that, I use Firefox for some time Flash begins badly trolling. BUT! This only happens if I have my current Firefox window. If I open the Task Manager on the top of the Firefox window, Flash stops late as if Harry Porter himself has cast a spell with his wand magic everything that works like a charm.

  I made a small video featuring the bug: https://www.dropbox.com/s/l2c5pbn1xwy58dc/12-11-2012%2019-07-15.avi

  -The bug persists even in SafeMode (all addons disabled).

  -With hardware acceleration disabled in Flash bug remains.

  -With the Chrome and other browsers, everything works fine.

  -The bug will disappear after restart - and then will begin to appear after Firefox has been used for some time.

  -Normally it reappears after that I close the lid of my laptop, forcing them to go into sleep mode. After he wakes up - the bug is there.

  -There's not a bug in the past - he began to appear new versions of Firefox are put - do not know the exact version, but I guess it all started since version 14 or 15.

  Any thoughts?

  > disable the safe_mode in Flash 11.3 and later versions

  Seems like it helped. Thank you!

• my firefox 14.1, contain Web sites with flash or videos don't work & youtube give me a message "year error occurred please try again later"?

  videos don't work & youtube or my firefox 14.1, contains websites with flash - like games - give me a message "year error occurred please try again later", I re - load my flash again, but nothing seems to work, what should I do?

  Can you open your Real Player and tell me what version you have? I think that Real Player 15.0.6 is supposed to solve this problem. There was a conflict between Real Player and Flash this all summer that broke Flash videos. Real Player has released an update which may help in your case.

  If this does not help, I think an addon can be to blame here. So follow these steps:
  
  Firefox button > help > troubleshooting information
  
  (or Tools > help > troubleshooting information)

  Click on the "Copy to Clipboard" button, then paste it here. He'll tell us what addons that you installed and I see that could cause problems.

• Firefox is crashes/closes on websites with flash

  It started yesterday when I was asked to download and install the 3.6.7 update for Firefox. After restarting the browser, I get a message that it is not installed correctly, and then it closes unexpectedly. It is not the usual message that there is a problem and needs to close Firefox.

  After experimenting, I noticed that this only seems to happen when you try to load Web sites that include Flash content. Gmail and Youtube to crash immediately. Other websites, such as Facebook and some forums will be charge initially, but will crash on some pages, where there is probably a flash video or another application.

  I tried to start Firefox in Mode safe, but I still get these accidents. When I go to about: crashes, I get no reports of recent crashes.

  I still can't update Firefox latest version, so I still have 3.6.6. Whenever I try, the installation fails. I have the latest version of Flash.

  I think I tried everything suggested in the knowledge base, so if anyone has any suggestions I would really appreciate it.

  User Agent

  Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; Trident/4.0; SLCC2; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.5.30729 .NET CLR 3.0.30729; Media Center PC 6.0; OfficeLiveConnector.1.4; OfficeLivePatch.1.3)

  I also had this problem.

  I reeinstalled firefox (latest version) and stop later the toolbar of browser defender in the section Add on to.

  This take care of most of the problems. (as in a slow computer, problems with flash video, very slow typing etc..)
