Hello Captivate community!
Hoping someone out there can help. I’m working in Captivate 2019. I have a project that has 4 small videos embedded within. When published and loaded into our LMS it works fine in Chrome on a desktop/laptop. However, when viewing the course on an iPAD the videos are static black rectangles and never progress. I thought perhaps I could convert the videos to .wmv and re-embed them and see if that would work….nope. It looks like I can’t embed a .wmv file. I tried publishing as HTML5 only and also as a HTML5/SWF hybrid…..nope. It was originally created in a template file and I moved it to a blank file and republished….nope. Does anyone have any other troubleshooting ideas for me? I feel like I’ve wasted too much time trying to figure this one out.
Thanks for any help you can offer!

Just tested a published file from my domain, which includes an interactive video. It works on my iPad, both in Chrome, Firefox and Safari. I have a Poster image on the splash screen because of AutoPlay disabled. It has been published to Rescalable HTMl, non-responsive project. Can you please test on your iPad. I rarely use pure video. Just want to see if this is working for you:
So this proves it is possible. I coped with AutoPlay disabled as explained in:https://elearning.adobe.com/2018/03/get-rid-white-start-screen-black-button-html-output/And I mentioned already that I did publish to HTML but rescalable.
