Restart flv video on slide when re-visiting
Nov 27, 2014
Hi all,
I hope you can help me out with this. In a project I'm working on I have a different video (flv) embedded onto each slide which is set up to play automatically when the slide begins. I have also built a custom menu which is accessed from each slide via a lightbox to enable users to jump between slides.
I want the flv to re-start whenever a user jumps to a particular slide. However, if a users jumps to a slide they've already viewed the flv resumes where it left off rather than re-starting. I've set the slide properties to reset to inital state when re-visiting and the timeline re-sets as expected but not the flv.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Damien

What an interesting gliche! I will look out for that one. Should be an easy fix though. Just set a trigger to play media when timeline starts. Good luck!
Yeah it was surprising. Thanks but I'm afraid that doesn't work. I've tried it and the video still resumes where it left off.
Ok lets keep trying. What about if you create a trigger to stop that media when the user clicks on Next. That way if they return, it isn't still playing. (By the way, this seems like a bit of a gliche and may be worth submitting to Articulate as a support case just so they are aware of it. I also am having some problems with video playing as per the timeline)
