Closed Captioning

I don't know about video tutorials, but everything you need to know is here.

Thank you for replying so quickly! I did see that, but was hoping for a quick tutorial rather than a lengthy read.

My kids are like are exactly the same! They'd rather watch a five minute video than read a page of text. I get it... I hope you were able to find the information you needed. 

Any questions, let me know.

Hey Joy! 

Arlyn's got a terrific overview video of the Closed Captions feature right here. Hopefully that will get you started!

Thank you Alyssa. That was helpful. I am looking forward to the additional, forthcoming features Arlyn mentioned, as well!

Hi!

Thanks to the assistance all of you have given me, I was able to successfully create and download an .srt file from YouTube. I imported a video and the .srt file into Storyline without issue. However, I am unable to edit the captions in Storyline. I am also not able to create them using the editor for a video without captioning., My menu bar is not the same as the one contained in the article.

I have attached my Storyline file which includes a brief screen recording of what I expected the editor to look like, as well as what it looks like for me. It also contains the two videos I am working with--one version with the .srt file, the other without.

Thank you!

Joy

Hi there, Joy!  Can you confirm what version of Storyline you’re using?  Go to Help > About Storyline. 

The latest build is 3.13.14869.0, so if you need to update Storyline, here's how!

Thank you Crystal! I thought I had updated last week. Apparently I was wrong, as I was on build 3.7xxx. I just successfully updated to the latest build and can see all of the closed captioning functionality that I was missing. Thanks again!

BTW, I love this application, this user community and the Articulate staff! I can not speak highly enough about you all!

Glad that worked well for you Joy. Thanks for chiming in with an update and your community praise ;)
