Custom Video Control
Morning Heroes!
I was wondering if it is possible to customise the video controls in SL2?
I would like to change the colour to match a colour pallete but cannot seem to find the correct section under the player settings.
Is there anyway to change the colours or to use entirely custom video controls?
Hello Saied!
That looks like the video controls for the added video.
Check out this tutorial and be sure you have "Show Video Controls" set to "Below Video".

Hi Leslie,
Thank you for your attention.
I've set up video controls under video, but different from the above image
Thanks for the update Saied. What are you seeing when you add the controls?
They can look different in the Flash vs HTML5 output for sure. Curious if that's the difference you are seeing?
If you need us to take a look, feel free to share the .story file.

I published the file as html5 only, but I did not see anything.
Hey Saied!
The built-in video controls for Storyline 360 should look like this:
If you use a web object or add a video from a website rather than from a file however, you may see different video controls based on where the video is hosted.
Where did you take that first screenshot from? Was the video on a website or somewhere besides a Storyline course?

I was looking up how to do this today and found this link which explains what to do. I thought I'd share as it might be useful to someone in the future.

Hi Cath
That looks like a really useful article I've passed it onto our developer to take a look - thank you for sharing.

Hi,
We'used this method. But we don't have the full-screen option on the player.
Any idea where it could come from?
Cheers
Hi Gregory,
Storyline doesn't have a built-in full-screen option, but depending on where you're adding a video from, that may have an option for full screen for the video alone. Is that what you're looking for?

Yes, but the module will be played without internet access. So I can't use external platforms such as YouTube or Vimeo.
I've used this dev approach https://blog.commlabindia.com/elearning-development/articulate-storyline-video-player but the full screen option disappear in SL.
Cheers
