I am trying to make a slide where you select DVDs by drag and drop to a DVD player and the videos start showing. I would like all the videos to be viewed before the user can proceed. I have set it up using variables based on the state of the DVDs changing, however it proceeds to the next slide before the last video is viewed as the change of variable (DVD drop) is before the completion of the final video. Can anybody help me with a solution here?
So you have a true/false variable for each movie? If so, you could edit your triggers so that the true/false variable flips to true "when the media completes." Does that help?
I have the variables set on the DVD shapes and when dropped they go to another layer that plays the media. I'm not sure how I would edit the variables for the media as they are not on the base slide.
Hi Marcel - That's understandable. Could you strip out the confidential content (or replace it with placeholders) and attach just that one slide here on this discussion? If not, you're welcome to submit a case to our support team by sending them the original file, since that is handled privately and only a support engineer will see it.

Thanks for the quick reply Jeanette.

Any chance you could attach the story file of that slide here, so the community can take a look & help out?
My company won't allow that, but I could send it to you personally if that would help?

Thank you Jeanette. I have just submitted a case.
