Display length of audio files on each slide...

Hey, 

Is there an easy way to show the length of an audio file on each slide? Sort of like a video (e.g. 30 seconds). I'd like for this to show up in the scrubber (total length). Captivate does this, so would think SL would too! :-)

  • Hi Jason,

    Unfortunately there is not a feature within Storyline to showcase the audio's overall timeline and what point the user is in the audio's length. It is something that would make a good feature request - and I hope that if someone in the community has come up with a method to set this up that they're able to share it here.

  • Hi everyone! I am looking into this as well. I tried the .ma4 file to upload it as a video, but it doesn't seem to be a remedy. 

     

    Any suggestions?

      I was confused about this as well. However, a comment on this thread said:

      Hi Jason,

      If you convert your audio to a .m4a file you should be able to add it to Storyline as a video, which will get you the controls you are after.

      Thanks,

      Matt

       

       

      So I was giving that a try
