background music in Storyline
Hi everybody,
Is there any way to insert background music like in Presenter in Storyline?
Thank you
Hi everyone!
I have some great news to share. We just released another update for Storyline 360. In Update 74, we've included important fixes and new features.
One of the new features we've included is:
- Create immersive experiences with continuous background audio that sets the tone and keeps learners engaged.
Launch the Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer to take advantage of this update, and click the Update button next to Storyline 360. You'll find our step-by-step instructions here.
Please let me know if you have questions!
I found an easier way
Add the following code in the file story.html before the final </body> tag
<audio src="1.wav" preload="auto" autoplay loop></audio>
Where "1.wav" is the name of the audio file you want to use. The file must be in the root
directory with story.html
This will cause the file to loop throughout the presentation.
e.g.
<audio src="1.wav" preload="auto" autoplay loop></audio>
</body>
</html>
Martin,
SWEET!!! I saw this post and even though it's not something I need at the moment, I thought I would give it a try... and it worked beautifully! Thanks for sharing this info!
Just a reminder to users that the audio file that they are using should be dropped (saved) in the story_content folder and the code should include a reference to this location, such as:
<audio src="story_content/1.wav" preload="auto" autoplay loop></audio>
Martin,
I followed your instructions and they were the only ones that worked for me while trying to put the background music across all the slides in a Storyline. Thank you very much! :~)
Hi Elisa,
I am happy to have helped. So much variation across versions of app, device, os ...etc.
