Bug - audio loading is delayed and then cuts off prematurely.
We are having problems when we have slide-level audio. It does not begin playing at the beginning of the timeline for the slide (appears to be a loading delay) and then once it does load, the audio will cut off prematurely because the slide has reached the end of its timeline. We have been able to do a workaround with extending the duration of the slide by a significant amount and then placing a button on the slide that the user can push to advance to the next slide without having to wait for the timeline to complete, but this…

Crashing during AI Avatar
I have had a couple of attempts to create an AI Avatar for an imported PowerPoint. I was recording for YouTube at the time, submitted the crash using the crash report but thought it might be beneficial to see what I was doing at the time.

Allow you to mute project audio on specific slides
When I add background audio to the entire project I cannot stop it from playing on slides that have a video or video grid so you get the music and the video audio. The only way to get around this is to remove the background audio completely. Would be nice to add a feature in the audio tab on the slide to stop the music from playing entirely just on that slide.

rewind audio or jump to bookmark
I want a user to be able to partially rewind the audio of a slide they were listening, without having to go back to the very beginning of the slide. They should be able to move back and forth, just like I can do in development mode, Captivate Classic, in a YouTube video, or like almost any audio/video player. Related to this, I would like to have a "Go to bookmark" action to go to a particular bookmark in the current (or other) slide. If the audio for a slide is long, it is very inconvenient to listen to go…

Rename Text to Speech Audio Tracks
Would like to be able to give audio a custom name, both in the timeline and when exported. "Text to Audio1" not very helpful.

Get rid of the breaths in AI voices
Real humans do pause for breaths, but professional narrators do so less, and professional productions edit it out. So why do AI voices need so many pauses where we hear a breath sound?

Fix The Voices in the Latest Version of Captivate
Chat support had me do CleanPreferencesMac, but that didn't work. It told me to my only option was to post here and just hope I could get some help at some point. Luckily I'm not on a deadline with this project!
The latest update has been a huge step backwards in terms of quality of the voices (I went through about a dozen), and the interface itself for many reasons:
- Some of the old AI voices aren't there anymore, which is not good when you are in the middle of a project (Jessica Anne in particular).
- The delivery sounds more…

Add speed adjustments to the AI voices
In other programs with AI voices, we can adjust the speed. The new voices are really good, but it would be nice to slow them down or speed them up depending on the need for a slide.

button audio
Allow the use of asset audio files on a button click. Currently you can attach a play audio interaction, but you can't select the audio file from the asset library.

add AI voice cloning option for updating legacy narration clips. My CP clients like my own voice and branding continuity is important.
I use Eleven Labs but it would be much easier to add voice cloning into CP. Or, acquire Eleven Labs and integrate it into all of Adobe multimedia products!

Fix inconsistent audio playback on the initial slides in Published courses
Often when I access a published course via the web, the audio on the first few slides does not play automatically. I need to advance and return to the previous slide to trigger the audio playback. This is not an ideal solution for learners.
I've tried adding title slides with no audio ahead of the first slide (expecting it would allow time to buffer and play the audio) to no avail. I've also tried positioning the audio to start at 1-2s after the slide has loaded with similar results. It might work to add a silent title slide with a…

Need ability to normalize audio for an entire project at once
I calibrated my microphone but the resulting audio on a simulation project was much too quiet. I want to normalize the whole project at once, not one slide at a time. I watched this video for Classic and can't seem to find parallel menus in the New Captivate. https://youtu.be/cCGwh78J3-U?si=XgXmBqghTNFaLFD5

Replace old audio file in project asset with new
When I want to use an updated audio file that I have saved under the same file name as previously used audio file, Captivate doesn't replace the old one (at least not in the timeline). I have to save the updated audio file under a different file name. Small detail, but in other Adobe products (e.g., Premiere Pro), I replace the old file with the new one (same name) in the source folder and voila - replaced in my timeline...

audio file with playbar options
It would be good to be able to add audio files in the way you do video, with play and pause functionality

Add pause to a triggered object audio
I would love to see a pause method added to a triggered object audio. So, for instance, if a button has audio assigned to it (via Play Media, not slide audio), then clicking the button would play the audio, clicking again would pause the audio, clicking the button again would restart the audio from where it was paused, and so on.

incorrect remediation sound missing from the asset library of sounds
put the old sounds from captivate 2019 into captivate 12. "electronic tink" sound file is also missing from the captivate 12 asset library compared to captivate 2019.
Also there is a bug on mac computer sonoma where sometimes when you go to asset and look through the sound choices in the asset library, they won't play. Also I can't see a way to add remediation sounds to the remediation states without doing it one by one for each quiz slide.

Allow audio to be attached to every widget object
There are several widgets that do not allow audio files to be attached: cards, hotspots, tabs, click to reveal. It seems pretty fundamental that you would want to allow an audio file to play when you click a tab or a hotspot...please add that functionality. Thank you!

Bug - Audio files in Asset Library
I am noticing that a good number of the default multimedia elements (audio files) are damaged that are included with the new version of Captivate. How do I open a ticket to have this investigated and resolved? When attempting to use various media files (not all however), I get the following message: "Audio Import Failed. Unable to import the audio file. Ensure that the file type is either MP3 or WAV. Also ensure that the file is not damaged."
Again, these are the included default files in the Asset Audio library (not my own or other that I am importing).
