Closed Captions Flashing

Hi there, Drake. Happy to help investigate!

To start, I published your project to Articulate Review using Storyline 360, update 3.23.17522.0. Here's the Review URL. I'm having trouble reproducing the flashing behavior in Chrome 71, so I'll need your help with these key details:

• What Storyline 360 update are you using? To find this detail, click on the Help tab > About Storyline.
• Did you publish the course for Web, LMS, or something else?
• What browser(s) are you viewing the content in?

We'll figure this mystery out together!

I'm having the same issue did you figure it out?

Hi Bret, 

I don't see where Drake shared any additional details, so I'd love to know the same details about your course that Katie asked before. Also, we're now on Storyline 360, build 3.24.17733.0. 

Also, do you see any flashing behavior in the version she published to Review? 

Sorry for the delay. Been swamped with projects. All good, though, since they're in Storyline!

Version v3.23.175220

I published as a video.

Browser is Chrome.

I ended up adding the captions manually. Not afraid of grunt work, but it would've saved time if the CCs had worked without flashing. There must be something I'm missing.

Here is the flashing behavior.  When captions are rendered into video:

I am using the most recent build of Storyline

Thanks,

Bret

Hi Bret and Drake,

Thanks for sharing those details! Our team is looking into an issue where those captions blink when you've included the trigger to show them automatically and publish to video. Closed captions aren't included in the publish to video output, so I can see why you're trying to use that trigger! 

Our team is looking into a fix for the captions, but we're also tracking a feature request to include closed captions in the MP4 output. 

Hi there! I just added captions for a video I need to post to the web and I'm experiencing the same issue. Was wondering if there was a solution update. Thank you!

Hello Holly and welcome to E-Learning Heroes :)

Thanks for reaching out and letting us know that you are running into the same issue.

I do not have any information outside of what Ashley shared a month ago.

This conversation is attached to both the issue reported and the feature request so that we can update you here when we can and you should now be subscribed.

Hi, I am experiencing the same issues, would you be able to give me an update on when this is expected to be fixed?

I have 5 big business changing projects across 16  different languages I will be using caption for translation and I need to launch these within the next two months, so if it is not going to be fixed soon I will need to look at an alternative provider.

Look forward to your reply
