Support web-based video streaming services using web objects and iframes.
We currently use iframes in a web object on a slide in Captivate Classic to stream video from an enterprise video streaming service called Vbrick (www.vbrick.com). We would like to see this supported in Captivate 2023.

Support multiple video playback control skins and features
Captivate Classic provides support for multiple self-hiding video playback control skins, such as Halo and Corona. It also provides "Auto Play" and "Auto Rewind" features for video that is embedded in a slide. We would like to see these features added to Captivate 2023.

Play video by clicking video instead of the tiny little play button in the corner.
If you want a scrolling course with multiple videos you have to use the video grid media block. When you use them the only way to play the videos is to click the tiny little play button in the bottom left corner. When you're in the program you can click the video to play it, but once you preview or publish it you lose that functionality. You should be able to just click the video to play it because that a much more intuitive workflow.

The ability to not have Black Bars on Video Slides when the video resizes
When placing a slide video in on the "canvas" it would be good to not have the video have massive black bars at the top and bottom.
Kind of makes the video aspect ration options irrelevant, when regardless of what you select there, the video has massive black bars on the top and bottom in a a 1:1 square

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 different1 vote -
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…1 vote -
My trial account of Cature no longer accepts file updates and it scrolls when I try to name a new file. Is there a file size capacity?

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.

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.1 vote
