Screen captures

Hi Sid.

Articulate Studio '09 supports MP4 files. I don't really understand what you are looking to do regarding your second question, though.

Hi Justin thanks for your reply. Yes I just realized that MP4 files are supported. Thats a mistake on my part. 

My second question is regarding screen captures. These are mp4 files, which I import in presenter. I have set autoplay to off so the user can read some lines on the screen and then see the screen capture. In such slides, the user can see the first frame of the video in the placeholder before clicking on play. Then the user plays the movie which runs through fine. However, at the end of the movie the user sees a big blank space rectangle in the placeholder area. Is it possible to end the video such that the last frame of the video remains on the screen instead of going blank?

I hope you get my point. If not I will post some screen shots. 

What did you use to create the MP4? I can't duplicate this behavior. I would suggest sending us your project files so we can take a closer look:

I have used camtasia to capture the screen. The output is a standard mp4 file. I will have to seek permission from my manager to send the project files and unfortunately she's on a leave. I am attaching some screen shots. If you look at the screenshot below, this is the last frame (1:31 mins) of my screen capture which is 1:32 mins long. 

As soon as the movie ends, I see this black screen. Instead, I want the last frame above to remain after the movie has finished playing. 

Any tips? Look forward to your response.

Hi Sid. I don't have Camtasia and I'm not that familiar with how it encodes it's files. Unfortunately, there is nothing in Presenter you can do to change that behavior.
