insert web video?

Hi Karen!  If you'd prefer not embed the actual video itself due to the size, it sounds like you may benefit from inserting it as a web object.  This tutorial shares some more information on embedding web objects into your course!

Thanks. From a file size standpoint...  is 500k considered too large to be embedded?? This course will be viewed via internet (not internal) so my original thinking is yes, too large, as it will cause loading delays. Am I correct in that assumption?

Ok. I have the proper URL and the video is playing, in-slide, as expected. However, I do not see any options to alter the video controls. They include full screen and download options in the playback bar that I want to remove. How do I do so?

Hi there Karen! There should be a way to remove the video download option, but I have a few questions for you first:

• What version of Storyline are you using?
• Where is the video hosted--YouTube, Vimeo, AWS, or somewhere else?
• Did you enable the setting to "show video controls" in Storyline? 

If you're using Storyline 2, you'll need to disable the video controls in Storyline before publishing. This will remove the video download option in Chrome. 

This problem shouldn't happen if you're using Storyline 360 or Storyline 3. 

Hi Alyssa,

• I'm using SL3.
• Video is hosted on client's LMS/web server
• I placed it as a web object. I was not given any option to "show video controls" 
  

Does the file need to exist on a specific type of video-streaming server?? Because I'm also having issues with the video not working in IE11 (forces me to "open" or "save as")

Hi Karen,

It looks like I also just posted to your other query here. Take a look and let me know there if you need anything else.
