Our department had been previously using Presenter 6.2
without too much trouble. However, since there had been some fixes
in 7.0.2, we've decided to upgrade. One of the things our group
does is use selected members of our team as our Narrators while
another edits the audio. This means either recording audio via a
3rd party app or using presenter's built-in audio recorder. The
problem we are witnessing with 7.0.2 is when we need to edit audio
within presenter, say, to remove areas where the narrator breathes,
Presenter fails to create a seamless edit.
Here's an example. A person(breath) records a slide. We use
presenter to clean the audio up by taking the white noise from the
beginning of the slide, and paste it over the breath. However, when
that happens, Presenter now looks at the slide like this: "A person
(break in sound) records a slide"
We've looked at the published (in the data folder) format and
found that when recording or importing audio using Presenter, it
makes a single .mp3 file for each slide. However, after that slide
has been edited, Presenter breaks that slide into the pieces it has
been "Cut and Pasted" in and puts them together into files that
read something like "a24x1x3.mp3, a24x2x5.mp3, a24x3x8.mp3".
The problem is where these separated mp3 files join, is where
the breaks in the audio occur.
Has this happened to anyone else? Will Adobe ever fix this?
This seems like the same recording tool that is in Captivate,
however, Captivate doesn't have this issue.
Thanks
