I would like the ability to display the elapsed time and time remaining for videos/content within my slides. Preferably this would be a part of the progress bar or at the title of the player.
Welcome to Heroes! Currently, this isn't possible and would need to be a feature request. However, there are ways to get a timer setup. Take a look at the following threads:
Storyline 2 does give you the option of Read-Only Seekbars to show progress. Just check out this page and either search or scroll down to watch the short clip.
Is it possible to have the TIMER (time remaining / duration) on the built in Seekbar?
Issue is: If we insert MP4 videos in each slides and published the .Story file into a single MP4 file (using Storyline 360) then the timer is not visible. We can enable the video controls for each embedded videos but it will not sync with the main Seekbar.
Happy to help, and I see you also reached out in this related discussion. Although there isn't a built-in option to display time played/total time for audio and videos in the player at this time, I'm going to share your thoughts with the team!
In the meantime, would you mind telling me a little more about your goal? I'd love to explore some available approaches with you, and if you can share a sample slide here, that would be gold! 😀

Hi!
Is this still not possible in Storyline 2? It would be a good idea I think.
Jon.
Hi Jon! You are welcome to build your own progress bar. If the links that Adrian shared above did not assist, perhaps this one will help.
Nobody wants to build it... they want it in by default. We are also
welcome to try your competitors too...

We welcome those feature requests Eric :)

Feature request submitted!
Thanks Jon :)
