Captivate Quick Tip: SnagIt saves the day!

[eferrigan]

Hi Rick, Im trying to export a talking head video that I have keyed out the background out of FCP X and import into Adobe Captivate. What does Adobe Captivate need to do this. Im following all the steps I believe are suppose to accomplish this but keep getting a black background. Some people think there may be a setting in Captivate that turns on transparency but Im unable to locate it if that is true. Appreciate any insight.

snagit's great but for those who want's a free solution can look up ManyCam.. it's not as good as Snagit but it gets the job done.. It can also video screen-capture.. or for an even cheaper than free still-screen-capture, just use the built-in capture method within the OS.. ofcourse there's gonna be some shifting problems but you can capture the whole screen and edit them in photoshop.. XD just a thought..

It is indirectly a precursor to a Captivate project we do on a regular basis. We've done thousands of these by capturing screens remotely with SnagIt and then importing in Captivate. Directly Captivate? No. But definitely a feed into Captivate for a specific need... :)

Do you really think this is captivate related? It's NOT... its a snagit video. why would you label it as anything that has to do with captivate? lol Good afternoon, good evening and goodnight.
