Exporting all captions
Hi Stephanie and wasim,
Thanks so much for sharing what you'd like to see in Storyline 360. I've added your voices to the existing report. We’ll update this discussion in the future with any news so that you are in the loop!
Hope that you both have a great start to Monday!
I'd like to help clarify that there are two distinct feature requests that have become intertwined in this thread:
- The ability to bulk export VTT files (similar to how we can currently select and export multiple images from the Media Library in one click)
[Bulk example: a 30 slide Storyline with one vtt per slide would export 30 vtt files] - The ability to export all captions combined into a single document/script
[Onefile example: a 30 slide Storyline with one vtt per slide would export one document containing all 30 vtt file information]
While both features would be valuable, the bulk VTT export functionality seems like it could be implemented relatively quickly since the framework already exists in Storyline for bulk media exports. The single-document export would require additional development for merging and formatting the captions.
Could these be considered as separate feature requests? This would allow the simpler bulk VTT export feature to potentially move forward without being held up by the more complex single-document development.
My solution handles both situations:
- Export all captions as individual VTT files.
- Export all captions, combine into one file, and remove time stamps so you have an audio script.
And though it's not outlined here in the feature request, I also import back the individual VTT files - no need to go slide-by-slide.
