MP4 + textbox with wipe on 2 consecutive slides causes timeline to not work in Chrome + Windows 10

Jun 09, 2016

Hi guys

I have lodged this with support as an issue.

I think I found a win 10 related bug, tested on two machines and one win 8 machine.when you publish this file. you will get the issue that the timeline stops working.

what you do:
- create 2 slides both with mp4 video on it
- place a textfield with a wipe animation in both slides
- publish the file
- in win 10 + google chrome the second slide won't play the time line properly, only what is immediately at the start of the time line will play
- this is tested to work fine in win 8

- work around methods
1 - remove the wipe animations

alternative work around(this may be a hint to where the issue lies)
2 - place a empty 0.5 second slide in-between the two slides

I have attached the file you will have to publish it
