As you see from the screen shot below, my 3-slide file went from around 12 MB to around 1 MB.

Check the resulting file - its size should have reduced dramatically.

When the conversion has finished, a green tick is added to the Status column in the Media Encoder window. The output file from this combination is *.MP4, and the file size is acceptable.

After experimenting with different combinations of Format and Preset options, I settled on H.264 and YouTube SD.

By default, Media Encoder sets the Preset (output) to the same Format as the original, and adds a number to the new file that will be created.

Oh, and when uploaded, the resulting video on YouTube was a bit fuzzy. Not very helpful or useful - files that size just clog the ‘intertubes’. My tiny test file had one image, three 3-second slides with minimal text, and no audio, yet publishing it to *.F4V created a file that was almost 12 MB. It’s also not documented in the Help (a search of the Help for YouTube gave no results).Ĭaptivate 5 will publish to *.F4V format and YouTube will accept those files, BUT… and it’s a big BUT… the files created are BIG.

and testing possible solutions to find out that publishing a Captivate file to a format suitable for YouTube is possible, but it’s a bit obscure and requires the use of another program.

It seems that Captivate 4 could save as *.AVI, but that option is not available in Captivate 5 (why on earth would Adobe *remove* features?). I was always under the impression that later versions of Adobe Captivate could publish to a format suitable for uploading to YouTube.
