Embedded Video Trigger

Hi Laurie,

Could you add a trigger to jump to the next slide when the timeline ends on the slide?

I do that but then it ends when the audio ends which is before they play the video.

Hi Laurie,

Thanks for reaching out. Would you be able to share the .story file so that we can take a look at the setup and help you out with this trigger?

Here you go and thanks!

I'll take a look

Hi Laurie,

So the issue is that you can't trigger an embedded video in SL, as you have discovered. You could extend the timeline to match the length of the video, but of course you'd be relying on the user clicking it as soon as the audio finished and not pausing it.

Are you able to insert the video as a file? That would be give you a lot more flexibility with triggering the video.

I guess it also begs the question of why you need it to automatically go to the next slide? If it's to minimise user clicking you could get the video to play automatically when the audio finishes and then allow the user to click Next when finished?

In case you haven't seen this, here is some information on editing parameters for embedded videos from YouTube: https://articulate.com/support/article/How-to-Add-YouTube-Videos-to-Articulate-Storyline-360-Courses 

I'll have another think about it, but it'll be tricky to do what you want without the ability to add triggers to the embedded video.
