• I used frontpage to upload my camtasia videos to my website. All I do is to save and publish my camtasia files under the root directory and upload the html page.

    My WP blog is in a sub directory, ie mysite.com/wpblog and the directory resides in the server and not on my computer.

    I have had no luck trying to publish a camtasia screen capture video on my blog.

    I would appreciate any suggestions and help.

    thanks

    I have also downloaded the kimili pluggin from kimili.com and it still does not work.

    I’ll print the camtasia and kimili code here – would appreciate any input.

    If anyone has succesfully embedded a camtasia screencast into wordpress, I would appreciate your help.

    thanks in advance

    I just had to figure this out. Turned out my problem was the MovieURL in the config.xml file camtasia creates.

    I put the video files in a folder in the root of the blog (which is the site root) named video.

    I also had to turn off the visual editor.

    Then I made sure the post source html was referencing the files in /video/.

    Then in /video/ I had to edit the config xml file for the video. (it’s referenced in the html source for the object)

    I changed MovieURL to include /video/ on the front of the swf file to the movie file.

    Bam!

    How do you turn the autoplay off? I can’t seem to find that information?
