Course taking forever to load because of captions

Nov 30, 2022

We have a large course that has captions. But it's pre-loading all of the captions, over 200 of them at the beginning and it's taking minutes for the course to load before the user can view it.

captions

 

Is there a way to have it load only the required captions.js for a slide or to load them in chunks instead of all at once? I saw one other user having this issue and they were able to combine all of the captions using a custom script, but unfortunately they never ended up sharing the script. 

 

Thanks for any assistance!

perhaps upgrade your LMS server from HTTP/1.1* to HTTP/2 it's much faster for multiple small files

*there is a browser limit for 6 simultaneous connections - as you can see in your screenshot

UPDATE: Scorm Cloud is using HTTP/2 - so you can test, if this solves your loading problem
