  1. The ability to be able to export as one file is critical

    You can only export to a web format, which is fine, but it means the video output is split into many files. I use Premiere Pro to compile my videos, add a title page, etc, and having hundreds of tiny files is difficult to manage, plus they can get mixed up in import to Pr. Please give us back the option to export to a simple MP4.

  2. Video demo has no Control panel on Timeline

    Captivate Classic, Video Demo editor lost a lot of features. When switching to the editor, Timeline is no longer activated by default. You need to open it using the Window menu.
    Moreover the control panel at the bottom of the Timeline, where you had tiny buttons for navigation, for trimming, splitting, add panning/zooming points, switch to mouse points editing has completely disappeared. It makes working with Video Demo a real pain.
    Play/pause still is sometimes functional using the playbar, but that is not consistent (same as New Captivate). But for all other functionalities which were at the fingertips in previus…

  3. Videos with Time Markers

    Slide Video Blocks [to a YouTube video] is not consiste with start/end time markers.

    It seems as if support for the time markers (start/end time) does not work consistently. Here is an example file: https://envolvemedia.adobeconnect.com/p89ko9u5bsij/default/YouTubeVideo_TimeMarkersNotWorking.cpt

    This file contains two slides:
    - Slide 1 is a Slide Video block with a Web link to a [relatively short] YouTube video. The time marker seemingly starts that the correct location every time.
    - Slide 2 is a Slide Video block with a Web link to a [much longer] YouTube video. The time marker never starts at the correct location and is always different

  4. Vimeo video and caption controls not available.

    Embedded video from Vimeo using the video object has no controls. I'd rather not enforce the user to have to sit through the whole video again when returning to a slide to make a different choice. I'd also like them to have the option see the captions already uploaded and managed in Vimeo.

  6. video webm format support

    Today, the only format accepted by Captivate for videos is mp4. The webm format is more compressed than mp4, and would consume less bandwidth from the LMS.

  8. Multi Slide Synchronized Video

    This is an issue with Classic Captivate that I discovered with a client. When I select a video that is set to span across several slides and edit the transition markers between slides, I cannot change the duration of each slide as I was able to in the past.

  9. Allow streaming from Wistia in addition to YouTube and Vimeo.

    Allow streaming from other video hosting sites. We use Wistia and Articulate will allow an embed from any streaming service. I prefer captivate but we do a lot of video clips and embedding them into the trainings directly make the trainings huge.

  10. incorporate videos published on https://share.synthesia.io/ into Captivate.

    We use the Synthesia.io tool to generate videos which we then incorporate into Captivate.
    Synthesia.io allows you to share videos directly from their site, without going through Youtube or Vimeo. However, Captivate cannot incorporate videos from sites other than Youtube or Vimeo.
    We would like to be able to incorporate videos published on https://share.synthesia.io/ into Captivate.
