Playback speed - Slide player Vs Video player

Jul 27, 2023

When I set playback speed of storyline player to 2x and jump to any slide with video, it plays with 2x speed but in video player playback speed setting shows 'Normal'.

This create confusion to the learner. Any solution for this?

Hi Sagar, 

Happy to help!

I tried to replicate the behavior you described in a new Storyline 360 project file but I was unable to do so. In the attached file, I have two slides each with a video. When I set the playback speed of Slide 1 to 2x and then proceed to jump to Slide 2, the 2x speed doesn't carry over. 

Would you mind trying to replicate the behavior you reported using my project file and letting me know if you are able to do so?

If the behavior is specific to your local installation, try doing a repair of Storyline 360 to see if this helps.

Hi Sagar!

Thanks for the added feedback! Sorry to hear that the playback speed settings are not being displayed accurately for your learners.

Testing the sample file Joe shared, I was unable to reproduce the behavior you mentioned. Would you be willing to share a Peek recording of the behavior as you are experiencing it?

Also, it would be helpful to take a closer look at one of the courses being affected by this issue. You can share a copy here in this discussion, or privately through a support case. We'll delete it from our system once troubleshooting is complete!

Hi Steven.

Check this link: https://360.articulate.com/review/content/f12a6a46-6d32-4457-ac12-52b56980a03e/review 

This is the published version of Joe's file. The only change I made is added Playback speed button on Storyline player.

Do the following steps to understand my issue:

1 - Set the playback speed of storyline slide  to 2X

2- Click next button to jump to next screen  - You will the video is actually playing on 2X speed 

3 - Click on the playback speed button of video player - you will see the speed is showing as normal. it should show the actual speed at which video is playing.

Hi Sagar!

Thanks for following up!

I followed the steps you outlined but unfortunately was unable to reproduce the behavior you are experiencing.

As you can see, the 2X playback setting did not carry over to the next slide.

Not to worry! I've opened a support case on your behalf so our support engineers can take a closer look into this issue. You should be hearing from them shortly!
