Auto advancing after video

Kristin,

One simple means would be to place another object (Say a shape) off screen and place it a few seconds after the video ending point. Then trigger the slide to change based upon this objects timeline ending.

Perfect!! Thank you!!!

Another way would be to simply add a few seconds to the timeline after the video ends. Then a slide trigger would "jump to next slide when timeline ends".

Good call Russ!  I was over thinking it!

I had over thought it too, which is why I posted here.  

Actually, Mike's solution was just what I needed. The problem I ran into was that when the video ended, it turned to black and looked awkward, so I added a still capture of the last frame that extended past the video.

But thank you Russ--I will put that in my memory bank!

Sweet!  Thanks for saving me Kristin.

The great thing about Storyline is that there are usually several approaches to solving any 

problem.  

I Love it!

Oh, yeah. I agree with Mike - having multiple solutions available is a wonderful thing.

On the black video thing, can you edit the video and trim off the black at the end? Then, when the video ends on the timeline, fade it out with an animation or let it just disappear on its own. I don't think I'd like a black box just sitting there either.

There is so much power in knowing alternative approaches to one problem--and it's empowering to have so many options available!

Russ- I could trim the end of the video--and my initial solution to this whole problem was going to be adding time to the end frame right in the video itself, but I am avoiding any video editing.  Since Storyline came out, my job has been to evaluate some old content that we have and improve it within Storyline (we've been waiting to update some particular content until Storyline released). Anyway, there are approx. 28 of these videos altogether that are part of 7 or 8 different modules.  I'm trying to avoid all the editing

PS- Really appreciate all the help here! Thank you!!!!!

I can certainly appreciate that, Kristin! Minimize your workload. Actually, though, using SL's built-in video editor for this would likely take you about 30 seconds per video. For simple stuff it is exceedingly easy to use.
