Hi Team, I have created a screen recording using Storyline and inserted it as step-by-step slides. This means I now have multiple closed caption VTT files (CC's generated per slide) and when I put the video into a Rise block I can only add 1 VTT file. Is there anyway around this (apart from uploading the video to You tube)? Thanks for your help!
If you are still having trouble, we'd be happy to take a look at your Storyline and Rise files and troubleshoot with you in this thread or privately in a support case. Whatever you are most comfortable with.
Hi Luciana, Thank you for your reply! It seems the video you provided above is how to load multiple VTT files, but in different languages. That won't work for my issue which hopefully I can explain below.
Please refer to my screen shot attached. In storyline I am editing my recording that I have split into scenes. Each scene has text to speech added. To export the vtt file, I have to do that for each scene which means I have multiple vtt files.
Is there a way to export the vtt files in storyline as one file? Or do you know of a way to merge them so I can add them to rise? Currently I'm having to upload the video to youtube and download a single vtt file from there. It's a frustrating, laborious task!
While there isn't a way to export all of the closed captions in a project, we have a feature request logged, and I've linked this discussion to the report.
If this makes it on our feature roadmap, I'll be sure to update you in this discussion!
Can I upvote this feature request :) This is the exact problem I am having right now. YouTube captioning is a solution, but the caption boxes are too long to be very user friendly and editing the captioning is cumbersome.

Hey Chelsea, try Adobe Premiere if you have access to it. I've found it quicker than YouTube.
