Publish to Video is Slow

Mar 10, 2020

Hi,

I am trying to publish an 8 min Articulate Storyline 360 video and it is taking over an hour.  Is there any way to speed up publishing of these videos?

Hi Everyone!

Great news! I'm happy to share that we just released Storyline 360 (version 3.82.31354.0), which includes a new 64-bit version of Storyline 360! Harness the processing power in modern computers with 64-bit Storyline 360. Large, media-rich courses benefit from increased stability and faster performance!

To use 64-bit Storyline 360, please update your Articulate 360 desktop app, then click the Install button next to the Storyline 360 app with the 64-bit and beta labels. The Install button will change to an Open button when the installation is complete.

This was highly requested, so we hope it serves you in your course creation! If you run into any snags, don't hesitate to contact our team in a support case.

Hi Jill,

Sorry to hear you're running into this! While I can see an 8-minute video taking a bit longer to publish, an hour seems too long!

Have you checked the compression settings to see at what quality the video is set to? We can also take a look at your file as well and see if we run into the same issues. Feel free to connect with us if you'd like a hand!

Hi Leonard,

While I haven't heard of any current issues around Publishing to Video, the behavior you are describing doesn't seem right.

Since Storyline isn't working as intended, sometimes a simple repair of Storyline resolves the issue! If that doesn't do the trick, please reach out and let us know here

Hi Mike,

Sorry to hear you're experiencing this issue as well! I'm going to enlist our Support Engineers' help, so we can best troubleshoot what's happening behind the scenes here.

Feel free to share your file to your unique upload link below, and they'll do some testing to see what's holding up the publish to video.

Hi Dayn,

Thank you for letting us know! 

Would you be able to share the file experiencing this snag for further troubleshooting? This would help out greatly so we can take a closer look. You can share files with us using this private upload link here. We'll let you know our findings and will delete it after having a closer look!

Hi Desiree

I have had some feedback. Apparently this is because Storyline is a 32 bit application and so can access less RAM for video encoding than a 64 bit application, leading to bottlenecks.

There are lots of people asking for a 64 bit version on this forum, to allow us to make full use of the processing power of modern 64bit PCs. It would be good to hear if Articulate have this on their roadmap.

Hi Desiree,

We are tracking the feature request that Dayn mentioned above, and I've added this conversation to the report.

What are you experiencing when publishing your course to video? Is it a time delay or not completing?
