Sharing a large file with video

Sep 22, 2020

I have created several training courses through Storyline. The files are over 200MB and when I try to share them through ShareFile or upload them, the story html file does not display the way it was published. It puts the video and audio into different folders and will not work for what I need. I have published it as a web story as well as an LMS story with the same results. What step am I missing?

Hi Shane,

I hope everything is well, articulate doesn't put any video size limit on what you can do in Storyline besides the file formats. In most cases, the computer's processing power is a crucial element when working with media. If it's cumbersome to add a large video directly to Storyline, you could host the video externally (e.g. on Vimeo) and embed it into your Storyline course. Also, I would like to add up how content is pre-loaded and presented to your learners and be aware of any potential delays there.

You may also take a look at our best practices here for some more details regarding uploading High Quality Images and Videos.

Hi there, Shane!

Thanks for reaching out by email and here in the community! Looks like Aljonell shared some excellent tips to reduce the published file size.

If you're still stuck, are you comfortable with sharing the .story file or testing? We'll publish the file for LMS and Web and let you know how it goes!
