Hi, I inserted a Camtasia movie into an Articulate presentation and after producing find that when movie is playing the mouse drags across the screen and the movie seems to blur or has hesitations in it that weren't present before producing. I looked for resolutions in the forum and only found answers from 2008. I'm using Camtasia 5 with Articulate 09. Any updated solutions?
Thanks Peter. I've seen this and I didn't try it because it applies to Camtasia 7 and I'm using 5. I couldn't view the screenr video. For some reason I can't always view screenr. Sometimes I can and sometimes I can't and I haven't been able to discern why.
Locking at optimal size and slide only view seems to have worked. I don't know if it's a combination of both or if one or the other would've done the job but it works!
I also have Camtasia 5.0 and everything seems okay until the video (swf) is actually inserted into Presenter - then it just appears as a black rectangle, same when I preview or publish it. Is this related to the fact that it is a swf file? My version of Camtasia doesn't give me the flv or mp4 options. Could it have something to do with the security settings on my computer? Just spitballing here...

I'll see what locking it at optimal size and viewing it in slide only view does.
Hey Tanya,
Curious to know if that helps. Good luck!

Awesome, Tanya! Thanks for the update.
