Audio delay in Storyline 360 in Preview and in Publishing, but not on timeline.
I am having an issue with a course's audio being delayed when previewing the course as a whole and when published. I preview the slide alone, it works fine. If I preview the course as a whole or as...
Hello JohanGreyling-c,
The behavior doesn't seem to occur on all project files so we'll need to test your project file to find out what's causing the delay. Would you be willing to share a copy of your project file here or privately by opening a support case for testing? We'll delete it when we're done!
Hi,
Ok, I think I might have found the cause. My project is very big, so I decided to just export the 1 scene which is giving me the problem into a new project. I tested it and the problem was still there.
BUT then I removed slides 3 to 25 as they were unrelated and the problem all of a sudden went away.
So I re-inserted(undo) the slides and the problem was back. I then tried to remove only some of the slides and the Synchronisation problem was still there with a shorter delay. The more slides I removed, the shorter the out-of-sync problem.
Background: The slides were produced from a Storyline screen recording. (View mode)
The voice-over and some animations were added to slide 1 afterwards.
It seems to only affect the audio sync'ing, other timeline events work fine.
There are no calls/triggers to the other slides which still need to follow.
The more slides you start deleting from the end of the scene, the smaller the "out-of-sync" time.
I hope this helps in tracing the problem. I will create a support item and attach the newly created story(with the extra slides). Hopefully it shows the same behaviour on your side.
Hello Johan,
I appreciate you sharing the Storyline project file in a support case. I see that my colleague Philam is currently running some tests with it. I encourage you to continue troubleshooting with him until a fix is found.
Have a great rest of your day!
