Audio Timing

Feb 07, 2019

Hi! So I'm trying to create a spreadsheet of specific timings for my audio in a storyline project. It looks like videos are exported at 30fps from storyline, but I don't understand why the timeline doesn't show time in 30fps.

I started creating cue points so I could get the specific time that different sections or pieces of my audio start/end at in coordination with my animations, but the numbers are things like 00:03;77 which doesn't make sense for 30fps. So what's the frame rate of the timeline?

Can anyone explain this to me?

Hi there, Liz. In slide view, the timeline is measured in seconds, and you can use either the playhead or cue points to sync your animations. This is our user guide article for syncing using cue points on the timeline.

Are you using the audio editor in Storyline to drill down to the specific position in the audio?

Hi Crystal. What confusing me is the timecode itself. I want the code in 30 fps, but the audio editor shows time down to 1/100 of a second. Is there a way to change this?

Hi Liz,

There isn't a way to change the editor time scale, but it sounds like having this ability is something that would improve your experience using Articulate? I'd love if you can share more details through submitting a feature request here.
