Screencast playing in preview, but not published

Apr 23, 2013

Hi all -

I have a screencast that I've recorded that is showing during the preview, but when i publish it for web, it isn't showing.

Any ideas on what I might be missing?

Hello Peter, I am experiencing the same scenario.  When I preview the project in Storyline my screencast plays just fine.  When I publish the project the ScreenCast does not show.  I have tested this in SCORM Cloud and also published it to my desktop and viewed the index file as well as uploading and testing in my LMS.  In all tests the screencast failed to play.

I would love some help.

 

Thanks,

 

Matt

Was Matthew's case resolved?  I am having the same problem today.  When I preview the slide or scene my screencast plays.  When I preview the whole project or publish the project, the screencast doesn't move.  It stays stagnant at the beginning of it.  I don't have any triggers on the screencast.   I've checked the layering of all my elements and don't see where the issue is.

I am using the original Articulate Storyline, now version 2.

I am using the original Storyline, not Storyline 2.  I am unable to attach my story because there is protected health information in it.  My screencast displays a person's health insurance information and I have text boxes over the names and data to protect their PHI.  There are about 25 different text boxes hiding the protected health information.  I don't know if there are too many and that's why the video won't play.  The weird thing is that it will play when I preview just that one slide.  But when I preview the full project or publish the project  and try to view, the screencast stays stagnant.  There are no triggers or states on the screencast.

I recently received a new laptop at work since the motherboard died on the old one.  They were able to copy over my C drive to the new laptop.  One other thing I noticed is that when I open a story, it says it's open in another instance.  Do I want to access it?  I have to answer yes or it doesn't open.  I get this message for all storyline files, even ones I haven't used in months.   I don't know if this could have something to do with the weird way the screencast is working.
