Loading story_content from another location
Oct 08, 2014
Hi There!
We have developed a number of courses using Storyline but have a requirement to load the assets (videos) from another server. This is because our users have local content servers at their locations.
While we are able to link to a video file from another location in storyline, you do not get the same control and functions that you get when you embed a video.
We were able to get it that the LMS calls the entire course from the content server, but then we have a cross-domain issue when it comes to updating the LMS.
Is there a way to have the 'story_content' folder exist on another server/location, and if so, how do we implement this.
The other challenge is that each content server has a different address, we are able to pass a url parameter to the content on launch, and would like to use this parameter to call the story_content folder assets from.

Hi Xenothan and welcome to E-Learning Heroes!
Perhaps someone in the community will be able to assist you with this, but for you and anyone else that may run across this thread, I wanted to share our recommendation.
Hi Xenothan,
I want to ask have you found a way to achieve your previous goals? It is because I am facing a very similar situation that we want to fasten the download speed of assets (mainly video and audio) in the published SCORM. We want to store the assets to the users' local disks and at the same time the SCORM is hosted in our LMS.
It is much appreciated if you or anyone could share experiences about this.
