Good day, I am using Storyline 3's Screen Recorder now for the first time, but have not had a successful save. As soon as I record a decent piece of work it is as if it freezes. It tells me it "Storyline Stopped working" The Storyline 2 screen recorder worked much better. Can anyone tell me what to do to get this recording working, please? I recorded a piece of work at a client's site and was very embarrassed to get the same issue. What seems to be the issue, please? I upgraded to Storyline 3 and expected improvements, not the opposite. Please help?
I'd be happy to help! A few questions to get us started:
How long was the screen recording you were trying to capture?
Are you working on local project files (i.e. your C drive and not a network/shared drive)?
Does it freeze while you're recording, or when you've finished and are trying to save it?
Have you check on going through a repair of Storyline 3 to make sure everything is installed and set up correctly? The steps here will walk you through it.
Let me know when you get a chance to check into those items!
I did everything, uninstall and re-install Storyline 3, checked the ,net files and downloaded and install a new flash player version. Last night I recorded a complex piece of work and once again it froze. This is nerve-wrecking working with an unreliable tool.
I try and limit the length of the recordings. That helped
Ah, Lida - I know how frustrating that is, I'm sorry. 😕
How long was the complex piece? Storyline has issues around 2 hours - and that'd be a mighty long screen recording! When it freezes do you have to force quit Storyline or does it crash?
I'm going to start a support case for you so that our engineers can take a look at your set up and anything specific that's causing the issue. Keep your eyes peeled for a message from Support@articulate.com!
Thanks so much! The recording was not close to 2 hours! It was at most 30minutes so I was very concerned about Storyline 3.
I appreciate that you took this issue further, and do hope we can find the answer. I cannot afford to work with an unreliable tool.
However - I am in software developing myself and I know how sinister bugs can occur.
