Ability to change storyline play speed

hi there

 

I love the storyline package, it does pretty much what I want it to do save for one thing. We produce our material to go at a set speed but our material is very long. I want the option so that our audience can change the play speed like the following:

0.5x Speed

0.75x Speed

0.9x Speed

1x Speed

1.1x Speed

1.2x Speed

1.3x Speed

and so on until to 2x speed

  • I would also like to add a request for this feature.  Busy professionals want to get to the relevant information quickly and as this is available in other eLearning software it could be the item that tips this firm into moving away from Articulate

      someone mentioned in another thread of the same topic, that it can be done in Captivate with a jquery (believe the comment was over 2 years old).  I am now looking at other options

  • as far as i know - it works in captivate only for videos - and since version 3.65 this works in storyline too

    wut.
    IT. IS. FINALLY. HAPPENING.

    According to the Feature Roadmap, this is in development!
    "Course Playback Speed Control - Let learners explore at their own pace by choosing a course playback speed between 0.25x and 2x."

      This is a great day for Storyline users and their viewers everywhere!

  • Playback Speed Control  is actually a feature of the modern player, not of the classic player

    but in storyline 360 it is possible to use  Playback Speed Control with javascript trigger (with both player)

    DS.appState.getPlaybackSpeed()
    DS.appState.setPlaybackSpeed(1.25)

    I have no storyline 3, so I cannot test it

    you could test it

    • create with the newest version of storyline 3 an example with audio
    • publish to web
    • open the result in Chrome or Firefox
    • press F12 (-> browser console)
    • you can now use a javascript command (without a trigger)
    • enter: DS.appState.getPlaybackSpeed()

    if you get "1" as result - Storyline 3 supports Playback Speed Control in the (classic) player

    the screenshot above is done with Storyline 360 (3.75) and the classic player
