System Audio is the audio that is generated from the application you capture or from your operating system. In the AME example, it is the chimes sound effect that is played when the encoding is finished. In this exercise, you will once again capture the sequence of actions described in the scenario. This time, Captivate will record the System Audio in addition to screenshots and mouse movements.
First, you should reset your applications to their original state:
- Close AME if it is still open.
- Reopen AME and change the presets to their default values.
- Delete every .mp4 file that is in the video/MOV folder of the exercise.
The second step is to get Captivate ready for the capture session.
- Return to Captivate and use the File | Close All menu item to close all open files (if any).
- Use the File | Record a New Software Simulation menu item or the Software Simulation thumbnail under the New tab of the Welcome screen to create a new project.
- In the recording window...
