<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#0D0D0D">I am using Robohelp 10 to develop a compiled HTML Help system on a Widows 7 system. I am trying to include three short video clips in one topic.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#0D0D0D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#0D0D0D">Thus far, I am unable to determine what format of video will survive the compilation of Robohelp into HTML Help. I have tried wmv, avi, and MP4 without success. I use a small “filmstrip” icon as the hotspot for
the link. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#0D0D0D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#0D0D0D">The Robohelp “help” contains the following statement:
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#0D0D0D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#0D0D0D">Note: Some file formats do not work properly in compiled HTML Help files.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#0D0D0D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#0D0D0D">However the “help” doesn’t state
<b>what</b> the file formats are that won’t work properly. Nor does it tell you what formats do work properly.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#0D0D0D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#0D0D0D">In every case (wmv. Avi, MP4) the clips appear properly in the Ctrl+w preview mode. However, in the compiled HTML Help topic the Windows Media Player does not launch the clip, but offers a menu that includes
Play all music, Go to library, or Play Previous list. Select Play Previous List and you see the last video that the player ran, not necessarily the one you think you have selected.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#0D0D0D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#0D0D0D">I guess this is RoboHELL. Can anyone give me any insight into what I am probably doing wrong? I would appreciate anyadvice. Thanks in advance.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
