I can't help with a LiveCode implementation, but if web delivery is an option, I've had good results using the free H5P technology for videos that include embedded quizzes of various kinds; I think it does image hotspots and branching as well. https://h5p.org -Curt -- Sent from Postbox

video formats for Windows in LC 9.6.5? *solved*

Thanks Klaus, Curry, Paul – just changing the suffix didn't help, but fortunately, converting the videos to divX format (.avi) with a free converter seems to have done the trick. The target audience is creative/theater types so the simplest solution is best here, but that's helpful to know

I doubt that will work. Once you have converted it into a video, it’s just a video. You want to have a video with HTML5 button overlays. You will probably have to use Javascript for jumping to the various points in the video. Let us know what finally works for you. Cheers, Rick > On Jan

A client has asked me to update a project from a few years ago that includes a few videos. In the previous version we used clips in MP4 format with the suffix .m4v;  the codecs (judging from Get Info on a Mac) are H.264, AAC. These worked well on both platforms before. With LiveCode 9.6.5 on
