Closed Captions in Full Screen not working
I have published a story file to 360 Review that contains video set to view in a new browser window. This video contains some closed captions.
The captions do not appear when viewing the file in a new window in 360 Review. However, they do appear if viewing it in slide.
Is it possible to view closed captions on a video when it is playing in a new browser window?

Thanks for reaching out, Mark. Tell me more about the video you're using: is it embedded from the web, or is it uploaded to your slide as a MP4 file?
Also, are the captions part of the video, or did you use the closed caption built-in editor to add the captions yourself?
If you can help me with a few more details, I can try and recreate this in a new file. Thanks!

Hi Alyssa,
Thanks for your response.
The video was a capture from Articulate Replay. The captions were created using the closed caption built-in editor.
Thanks.
Thanks for those details, Mark. I'm working with my team to get a better understanding of what we would expect for videos that open in a new browser window. I'll pop back in here as soon as I have more to share!

Hi Alyssa,
I've the same probleme with a MP4 film from Replay 360 and caption from the built-in-editor.
Regards
Thanks for chiming in, Oliver! Our team is still looking into the reasons why closed captions do not appear on videos that are opened in a new browser window. As soon as I get an update from my team, I'll post it here. Stay tuned!

Hi, is there any update on this? I have the same problem - I used Storyline 360 to record screen and audio at the same time. If I set it to play in current slide, captions are available, if I change to view in new browser window, captions disappear, as does the captions button.
Thanks
Hi Diane,
No update yet, our team is still looking into it.
I'd love to share your example with them to help with their testing. Can you upload a copy of that .story file for us?

Can I send it directly rather than add to this log please?
Sure, Diane! You can send your file to us privately by clicking this link.
Thanks for sharing your file with us Diane. Looks like Vevette stepped in to help you out :)
