Export closed captions in bulk?
Unfortunately, no. Javascript can't be applied to the media library. And when Storyline exports to html, original audio and video filenames are not preserved.
I did a bit more digging in my renamed/unzipped .story file and found that theme.xml.rels lists each audio file with it's corresponding VTT file. The files are listed by the generated file names found in the \story\media folder, but it's certainly a start.
I considered writing a script that would take the XML as input, extract the text from each vtt file, and associate the extracted text with the name of the media file as an output report. But it seems to me, the result would just be a listing of original media file names and their captions, in no particular order.
How would that be helpful, as opposed to just having a transcript of all captions, organized by slide, in the order in which they actually appear on the slide and in the course?
