Download videos fron WEBM to mp4 for articulate storyline

Hi!

I am trying to download a video to my slides, the problem is that I have a Macbook first and foremost moreover I can not seem to convert the video to a format that storyline articulate can accept. I am not even trying to add a new video, just replacing an old one. If anyone have any ideas please help me, I have been trying with basically every converter that I was able to find. The format that I have now is WEBM. 

 

Thankyou!

  • Hi, Mathias, and welcome to E-Learning Heroes! ✨

    You should be able to convert a .WEBM video to .MP4 using a free third-party tool called HandBrake. Here are the steps:

    1. Download, install, and open the HandBrake app.
    2. Click Open Source on the ribbon and import your video file.
    3. In the summary settings, confirm MP4 is the format selected.
    4. Click Start Encode on the ribbon to re-encode your video.

    Let me know if this works!

      Hi, I currently have a webm video to insert in on of my storyline projects. The point is to maintain the transparent background. Is there any way to do that on Stoyline ?

        Hello Marie,

        Thanks for reaching out! Although transparent videos are not yet supported in Storyline 360, we have an existing feature request for this, and I've added your voice to the report.

        We'll let you know if this is added in a future Storyline release.

        Have a great day ahead!
