Rewinding or fast forwarding in videos using the seek bar (slide or below video)

Jan 30, 2023

Hello,

We have a large number of recordings of presentations that were done in Zoom that are about an hour long. We have resorted to cutting them up into 3-4 sections, each own slide in Storyline, because the seek bar doesn't allow you to rewind or fast-forward.  Does anyone else have another solution for this or is there a new setting that I am unaware of? I am beginning to wonder if we should have just upload the mp4 video files in our LMS instead? Thank you in advance and we are aware that this is not necessarily good instructional design/video production :).

Hi Kari,

Thanks for asking about this! Have you tried to set up the seek bar in the player so the user can drag to different points of the video? Here's a screenshot showing the setting.

Also, here's an article with more information about player controls including the seek bar.

I hope this helps!
