TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
We are currently trialing TechSmith Camtasia for recorded training demo's
of our software (with audio). So far so good, but we're running into
problems with movies we created using the Theater component, which lets you
"stitch together" multiple Camtasia-generated SWF files into a single movie
that runs continuously, with a left-hand clickable table of contents
available to users who wish to gain more control over navigation.
Our problems:
======================
1) When the movie is playing continuously, transitions between "segments"
seem awkwardly long (& silent). Is there any way to optimize this?
2) When you click on a chapter-names in the left-hand TOC, it stops the
movie & takes a longer-than-expected time to actually launch the selected
chapter -- longer than the average user would be willing to wait, in my
opinion. There isn't even a "please wait, loading" status-bar or hourglass.
Any known ways around this?
