Video not starting automatically

Oct 04, 2019

Hello,

I've inserted a MP4 and selected the option to start automatically and when I preview it (in Review 360), it doesn't work, I still have to click on it to make it start.  Is it because I'm in Review mode?

Thanks!

Hi Marie-Claude!
Preview mode with automatic run set for MP4:
I just tried it and mine (inserted MP4) works ok in preview (both slide and scene) mode - the MP4 is installed on the screen and starts automatically... (see attached below). Any other details happening that might be impacting it? Have you tried just a blank screen with your MP4 installed and nothing else? What did you use to make the MP4? Mine was made in Camtasia. I attached my MP4 as well.

Hi David,

 

It's a video and when I'm in Artoculate it works fine but when I preview it, It doesn't start.  I'm attaching the link if you have the time to look at it and tell me what you think could be the problem...

Thanks

Hi!

You program worked fine for me - all the videos (the first one had some background conversations) and all the screen animations - even switching back and for the between French and English - all good. (pretty impressive package, btw. Nicely done. ) hmmm... Maybe try exporting it using the CD output format, and try launching it from those files? I have a Win10 laptop. I don't know what else might be different.
