Closed Caption Translations (1 training in multiple Languages)

I agree that this functionality would be incredibly useful. As previously mentioned, by another poster, this function is available in Rise...so having it available in Storyline is the clear next step. 

Hi. We've done some great work with Storyline and credit to the Articulate Team for reaching out and have an open dialogue with customers.

Is there an update on the language support for closed captions - there are threads within the forum where customers - have requested/asked for the functionality over 5 years ago? 

With video/animation now being so integral to many workplaces and many organisations supporting multiple languages this is a level of functionality that is now becoming required with the L&D toolkit. 

Thanks for reading, 

Hi,

Please add my voice to the request. We have over 80 languages for our content. I hope you start making updates to the software very soon. 

Hi, please add me to this list. I work for a global company and need translations into 11 languages. It's really disappointing that this is not available in Storyline 360, especially as it is already available in Rise.

Hi there - please also add me to the list of users requiring the multiple languages in closed captions functionality.  It is a game-changer for us!

I need this feature too. I'm really surprised that Articulate 360 doesn't offer this functionality for global companies. I have a Storyline 360 course in English. The owner needs closed captions added in 5 languages. Similar to a webpage, I'd like to see an option in the player to select from multiple languages and display the language in closed captions.

Agreed! My global team really needs a product that works for a multilingual audience! Add me to the list of users who really need this feature!

Is this actually not a feature?! It's 2023...

I too want to more easily add closed captions in a different language to the English audio. The text-to-speech audio has a lot of mispronunciations for scientific words, so just using that is not an option but the captions generated from the text are great. Being able to export/import all .vtt files easily would help me enormously. Being able to have one file with a choice of subtitles in multiple languages would be a dream come true.

Hi Dimi and Gayna,

Thanks for reaching out about this! I understand you'd like an update on the feature request where closed captions can be seen in multiple languages and why it was dropped from the Roadmap. Currently, there hasn't been any movement on this feature as we focus on fixing bugs over developing new features. Our shift in focus is the reason why this feature was removed from the Roadmap. Your voices have been added to the request. We’ll update this discussion if there’s any news regarding this feature.

Also, here is some more information on how we manage feature requests.
