Multiple audio files in a single slide Captivate 5?

It is easy to add multiple audio files in Camtasia Studio: just drag gthem.

Captivate 5 asks me if I want to replace the current audio file. I don't. I just need - at the most - you short audio files that will play in order, perhaps with a short break between the two

Is this possible?

Welcome to our community

Captivate allows audio at three levels.

  • Background - plays for the duration of the project
  • Slide - plays when the slide plays
  • Object - plays when the object appears

What you must do if you want multiple audio files to read is to insert objects and associate audio with objects. If you do not want to see the object and all what you want to do is to hear the audio, use a Transparent caption with no text or a box to highlight without color or a box click with no break and no action when you click it.

See you soon... Rick

  • Read multiple audio files with a single button - Playlist

    Hello

    im working on an interactive project that require the playlist function,

    The idea is to have a single button on a page that will play all the audio files on the page in the order they

    as you play a complete album in itunes or other players, when the first ending song the following begin to play and so on.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you

    Guy

    (1) put all the audio files in the Indesign document.

    (2) create a button,

    3) go to the Control Panel button and add multiple actions for 'Her', and for what actions define the audio file name

    Now go to the Panel of Timing and to organize the sequence of the audio file to read, just as the Panel layer, (drag / drop)

    Check the output.

  • Size of the very large file for a single slide - is this normal?

    I work at 8 Captivate with .cptx file size ~ 500MB. I wanted to send an example of a click box (including placement, size and text indication) to a colleague. To make it easy for him, I want to send a single slide with this interaction, so it can copy and paste.

    I saved the file under a new name, and then I deleted all other slides. The size of the new file was still almost 400 MB! Then I deleted all unused library items and the link to a .ppt presentation. This reduces the size to about 300 MB.

    Am I missing something? Is this normal?

    It's normal... Unfortunately.

    Copy slides in a new empty project of the same size.  It should be small then.

  • Import multiple audio files

    Hi there, CP8, version 8.0.0.145, I was able to drag and drop files from a window of the system that this feature does not work on 8.0.1.242.

    Here we have some files that you have something like 230 slides (heading demonstration system) before the update I have never try to import several audio files and import them in the slides, is it possible, or we're going to still hit F6 to each slide?

    So what left for me is to create a feature request.

  • Creating a bar of the Volume control for multiple audio files

    I'm pretty new to Flash and developing a project with a series of images containing unique video clips. Each of these frameworks are accessible via a menu based all chapter in being visible straight like a regular movie. I just added the audio for each 'chapter' / framework, all of which are unique from each other. I'm having a problem with the creation of a volume control bar that affects all the sound elements throughout all the images in the control bar unique on the General interface/skin that these chapters are working on. (With the help of Flash 8)

    I developed a sliding control bar, that works, but does not affect the volume, somehow. Is there something wrong with the coding that I use? (The control bar consists of a button nested in a clip and the action is applied to the mc. The bar/line to follow is 60px banner for a long time and control is to move horizontally while the increase reflects the increase in the volume. The original code was for a 100px line leave a tutorial from macromedia that I adjusted to be 60px banner) advice on best practices for the creation of a volume control bar would be greatly appreciated! (I currently have all of my audio files on separate layers, should I be placing these in a mc rather than just having them on the main timeline?) Thank you!!!

    Answering my own question...

    Each individual swf has the code...

    var my_sound:Sound = new Sound();
    my_sound.loadSound ("someSound.mp3", true);
    my_sound.setVolume (50);

    Code on the shell/main drag...

    OBJECT SOUND
    var sound: Sound = new Sound;
    soundtrack.setVolume (50);
    END OF THE SOUND OBJECT

    GLOBAL VOLUME CONTROL
    var nVolCheck:Number;
    volSlider.volBall.onPress = function (): Void {}
    this.startDrag (false, 0, 0, 0, 75);
    nVolCheck = setInterval (updateVolume, 150);
    };
    volSlider.volBall.onRelease = function (): Void {}
    this.stopDrag ();
    clearInterval (nVolCheck);
    };
    function updateVolume (): Void {}
    var flight: Number = (volSlider.volBall._x) * 2;
    soundtrack.setVolume (flight);
    };
    END OF THE GLOBAL VOLUME CONTROL

    My bar is 75 pixels in width and volume is being increased from 1.5 to peak.

  • Possible to have two audio files in a single project?

    I use 3 Captivate and created a demonstration of a new product.  Us will have voice over explaining the features, but I also like to have music in the background.  Is this possible in captivate?

    Hello

    Indeed, it is possible. Common actually.

    Click on Audio > background and choose the background element to use. Assign narration to each slide across the slide.

  • Can not put multiple PDF files into a single document no more.

    I was able to scan multiple PDFs into one document on my desktop. I can no longer. I have a printer Photosmart HP 6515 and Windows7 OS.  PS. just the other day I had someone remotely access my computer to fix a problem with MagicJack (computer phone) and who knows what they might have done. Thank you to everyone.

    Nice day

    Here are a few screenshots I took it to give you an example of how to do to scan several pages in the scanner software. Make sure that the option is disabled for the creation of a separate file for each scanned page. Subsequently, click on the 'Destination' tab above and save it to any folder you want on your desktop or elsewhere.

    This should help, good luck

  • FMS4.5 live stream with multiple video files as a single source?

    I use Flash Media server 4.5 and I read the tutorial if I want to play the live stream, I may need to use the Live Media Encoder.

    But what I found in media encode is I manually set up everything and it only supported cameras.

    But in my case, I have several video files keep the receipt of another program and place it on the filesystem (server).

    My goal is use the Flash Media server to perform a live boardcasting with these video files one by one.

    This means when customer watch a live streaming, they won't notice the server plays mov1, then mov2, then mov3, then mov4... and so on.

    You can imagine I try boardcast say a sequences live during 60 s,.

    the video file will be not recorded entirely after 60 seconds, but not for every 10 seconds, I will deliver a video file,

    so that when watching the live of HLS customer (for example http://xxxx.com/live123( )

    When time reach 10 seconds, a video file available mov1 and FMS should boardcast this video on live123.

    When the time achieve 20 seconds, a video file available mov2 and FMS must immediately follow the boardcast mov1 on live123.

    and so on...

    FMS can dynamically create a new session of streaming (call by code),

    so that when the customer a download of some video files to the server, the FMS log new stream streaming only cilent video files?

    boardcasting as configuring the size of the screen, bitrate, etc. must be predefined on the server.

    (e.g. customer boardcast on http://xxxx.com/live123, CustomerB boardcast on http://xxxx.com/live124...)

    so the fact that possible to use FMS perform these ideas? or y at - it approaches?

    I am very new to FMS, if I have any misconcept FMS or media encoder (live), please do not hesitate to correct me.

    Thank you!

    Hello

    To have OUT load videos from sources of files, to be released at this stage, you need third party software like ManyCam.

    Otherwise, FMS can use source files and a playlist-like, side Publisher.

    Thus, you must request script on the server, server to play files and publish (publish side Server) to be subscribed by customers. Essentially, we ask the server to replace GFFE/encode streams published by sources to have the publishing server-read the file stream.

    http://help.Adobe.com/en_US/flashmediaserver/ssaslr/index.html should give more information on how to do it.

    Thank you!

  • Hard to put the audio files in a slide show help!

    I can only put a single audio file when creating a slide show but trying to put another file I get the error message "the selected file cannot be read because your system does not have the necessary compress/decompression (codec) installed. Why keep this product? All I'm doing is to multiple audio files in a slideshow. Thank you.

    In addition, I use Windows 7.

    Some will work and some won't. Look into Audacity, linked above. Always convert MP3, WAV/PCM, in record in Audacity, and the problem will disappear.

    Good luck

  • Combine multiple files into a single file adobe adobe - do I need to buy additional products other than the adobe reader software

    I don't seem to be able to combine multiple adobe files into a single adobe document.  Do I need to buy an additional product for this in adobe reader?

    Hi Art Brock,

    You can buy the Adobe PDF package to combine the files using Adobe Reader, if you must use Acrobat Reader DC for this task.

    You can purchase the subscription by using the following link: online PDF converter, convert to web or Acrobat Reader | Adobe PDF Pack

  • How to play several audio files at the same time and mute toggle some voices?

    Hi all

    Forgive me if this is mentioned elsewhere and kindly point me in the right direction.  I'm a kid with flash and action script so if you are in doubt, error on the side of more specific in your response, there is a lot of vocabulary I still don't know.

    The goal:

    I have 4 audio files which are Soprano, Alto, tenor and low voice of a musical example.  The result should allow the user to play all 4 voices at once and dumb voice specific to hear all the possible combinations of voices playing together or solo.  I imagined a check box at the beginning of each rated musical line that puts that voice muted when checked.

    It would be ideal to have the game, interrupt and stop reproduction choices where 'Stop' resets playback at the start and 'Pause' maintains the current place in time and takes over from there, once playback is started again.

    I am able to get the simple audio files to play from a single button, but I am struggling to find how to link multiple audio files to start at the same time by a single button.  I found this link: https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1069107?start=0 & tstart = 0

    where the last message mentions the use of tables, but being a complete beginner, I don't completely understand what they are doing.

    I know it's a big piece of questions at once, but if you could meet any part of it, or direct me to a tutorial/instructions, I would really appreciate it.

    Thank you for taking the time to help others

  • Breaking an Audio file for a long time into Segments

    I have an audio file, attached to a slide (I'm not allowed to be attached to an object).  He described five different processes that are represented by an image on the stage.  The image looks like five different banners, but it's actually a single image.  Each banner has a picture of a president on this issue, and the idea is to have the learner click the speaker to hear this part of the audio (which describes the process represented by this banner).

    I inserted buttons and placed on the timeline so that the break symbol is just before each audio segment, but I don't get a break.  What I left out or harm done?

    Hi Harooki2,

    You can add a "gotoSlide X' for each button.

    The buttons jump to slides that seem identical to the slide to start, but the rumor.

  • IDCS6 MACOSX JS: data merge multiple txt files one after the other

    Hello everyone.

    I have a situation where I have to data merge multiple text files to a single file indesign real "base". Databases formats are the same, the point of difference is a code in the second field of the database that refers to a postal box (not a zip/postal code, a code of 'distribution center' that has possibilities of 56 or greater). I would prefer data merge a file and then somehow split the PDF via Acrobat, but the length of postal areas resulting is incompatible and something that cannot be done if the document "split" feature in acrobat.

    The database starts as one massive file but using a one line code, can be divided into postal areas in separate text files.

    My last question: is it possible data merge several files at the same time (for example one after the other) and to give them their names based on the names of the input text file?

    OLE Kvern had a script to merge the data to a file without the user interface. I changed the last line slightly so that it generates a PDF file based on [high quality]:

    if(app.documents.length != 0){
            var myDocument = app.activeDocument;
            app.dataMergeOptions.removeBlankLines = true;
            //Select a source file.
            var myDataFile = File.openDialog("Select a data file")
            var exported = "file location(redacted for the sake of this post)"
            if(myDataFile != ""){
                    myDocument.dataMergeProperties.selectDataSource(myDataFile,);
                    myDocument.dataMergeProperties.exportFile(exported,"[High Quality Print]",);
            }
    
    }
    

    I guess that the answer has to do with the variable "myDataFile" and rather than just being open a dialog box, it could be somehow by selecting a table of text files, but it is where I am out of my depth.

    Ideas or thoughts which may not involve trying to do both the many mergers, but can somehow revolve around a great fusion of PDF?

    Thank you very much

    Colin

    Since writing my last response, I realized there was a better answer. It is a scenario of Peter Kahrel and a modified version of a script by Olav Kvern. Details can be found here: batch of merge data | Adobe Community

    I have since made other mods to the script is easier to understand:

    if(app.documents.length != 0){
    // make sure to use the document that is open
            var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
    // get the name of the document that is open for future naming purposes
            var myName = myDoc.name
    // get the location of the folder that contains both the indesign files and the text files
            var myLocation = "FULL PATH LOCATION OF FOLDER CONTAINING TEXT FILE AND DESTINATION FOR FINAL PDFS"
    // define the names of the data files to use based upon the names of the indesign files
            var myImport = myLocation + myName + ".txt"
    // define the names of the data merged PDFs to be created
            var myExport = myLocation + myName + ".pdf"
    // the actual engine for the merge, including DM instructions such as remove blank lines, object fitting etc.
            var myDataFile = myImport
            app.dataMergeOptions.removeBlankLines = true;
            if(myDataFile != ""){
                    myDoc.dataMergeProperties.selectDataSource(myDataFile,);
                    myDoc.dataMergeProperties.exportFile(myExport, "[PDF/X-1a:2001]", );
            }
    
    }
    

    If this script will automatically merge a file which is open as LONG as the data file is the same name as the indesign file with .txt at the end for example

    Woodward.indd (indesign file)

    Woodward.indd.txt (used for merging text file)

    This script does still not the original memory and who was using an indesign document, to browse for many text files and merging of PDF based on text files.

    HOWEVER, I am sure that the answer to that is based only on the use of the script above (no need to Peter batch convert script) and changing the line 9 to be a loop for... but again, this is where I come to a grinding halt. Any help would be appreciated.
