How do I edit a published MPEG-4 video?

An employee in my company had been working on a Captivate 5.5 video, but she has since changed companies and I've recently been assigned to finish the video that she started. I have a rough draft of an older version of the video she was working on, which was saved in Captivate. The more recent versions of the project have all been published as Realplayer MPEG-4 videos; there are no Captivate files for the changes she has made over the past three months. How do I transfer or convert those MPEG-4 videos back to Captivate so I can edit them? Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

I do not think you can convert a published MP4 back to a raw CPTX-file. You could try to edit it in a video editing application (Premiere Pro?).

But really think it would be easier to recreate the CP-file.

Hi there

As Lilybiri said, there is no way to revert or to convert this output to a working CPTX file.

One thing you may wish to do that might help would be to play back the file and record it using Captivate. That action may save you some steps.

Cheers... Rick
