Export closed captions in bulk?
Hello everyone!
Happy to share that we've just released a new update for Storyline 360!
In Update 123, we've included essential fixes and new features. We've released an enhancement for:
- Export all your project’s closed captions in a single step.
Launch the Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer to take advantage of this update, and click the Update button next to Storyline 360. You’ll find our step-by-step instructions here.
Please let me know if you need additional help.
It is possible! If you change the extension of a project from .STORY to .ZIP, you can extract the contents and root around in the all of the associated files, including the .VTT captions.
First thing to do is make sure you are able to see your file extensions. Open an Explorer window, go to View tab > Options > View > disable "Hide extensions for known file types"
Now that you are able to see the extension for all file types:
- Make a copy of your .STORY project file.
- Change the extension to .ZIP.
- Extract all files from your new ZIP folder.
That should leave you with a folder with the same name as the copy of your original .STORY file. Open that folder and to the subfolder named ...\story\media
Here, you will see all contents of the project's Media Library, including the .VTT captions. The only drawback here is that the file names are randomized so you'll have to match them up with the audio/video files manually.
I've screencapped the process in the video below.
Peter, this is amazing! Saved me a ton of time!
Thank you so much for sharing!
Glad it worked out!
