Hi Can anyone help me with a problem? I've set a video slide (the video is in the base layer) that has several layers which stop the video each at a time. but when I go back to the previous slide and then enter the video slide again - the video runs without stopping... Have anyone had such a problem (and solved it)?
When you say "but when I go back to the previous slide and then enter the video slide again - the video runs without stopping...", do you mean that when you go to the slide BEFORE the video slide, then back to the video slide, that the video picks back up where it left off?
Hey Brian, thanks for replying!
The video is on the base layer of the slide, and starts running
automatically. some layers that contain explanation captions are trigerred
along the timeline and stops the video (as it is on the base layer) until I
click on a button to continue - the caption layer disappears and the video
runs again.
The problem is that when I go to the slide before, and then returning to
the video slide, the video on the base layer doesn't stop when the caption
layers appears... (Hope I managed to explain it)
Thanks, Ofer
Yes, I have... It only got worse (because the video starts all over again
and not from the point I left the slide, while the caption layers continue
from where I left them in the timeline).
You may also consider putting your video on a slide layer - not that it should make a difference, but I've worked on some projects recently where I did this and never had an issue with the way the video played back...

Have you tried setting the slide properties for your video slide to "Resume saved state"?

Yes, I have... It only got worse (because the video starts all over again
and not from the point I left the slide, while the caption layers continue
from where I left them in the timeline).
any way you can post an example .story file that has the issue you're running into?
Thanks Brian,
I'll try to overcome this in a different way (such as disabling the 'Back'
button while the video is running...)
