Difficulties having music playing in the background for a quiz
I’m working with Articulate Quizmaker with aim to make a quiz with 2 introduction pages and 5 questions. We wish to have music playing in the background, while the user is going through the quiz.
Do you know is there any way to make one mp3 file to play in the background through the whole quiz? There are 7 slides and I would like the music to start on slide 1 and continue with no breaks until slide 7, or - in the best case - until the end of feedback. The user has 2 minutes to go through the whole quiz.
For some reason the music works sometimes almost as desired, but if I change anything in the quiz contents, it will not work anymore (there seems to be no logic behind this…). In the best cases, so far, the music just breaks every now and then. Most often the audio track will start from the beginning after 45 second, so that there are two tracks playing at the same time.
Does someone know how to fix this?
Thank you for your help in advance!
Hi Laura,
Thanks for reaching out!
There is currently no available feature for adding continuous music to a Quizmaker 360 course. I’ll be happy to pass your thoughts on to our product team, but you can also feel free to detail them more through a feature request!
As a workaround, you can import your Quizmaker 360 slides into a Storyline 360 course and follow these steps from the community to add background music to your slides:
- How To Add Continuous Background Music in Storyline 3 and 360
- Background sound throughout whole quiz
- Playing Background music across all slides - Storyline 360
Hope this helps!
Hi Joe,
Thank you for your response and helping out. We'll try importing the slides into Storyline 360.
Have a nice day!
