Generate closed captions from audio
Hello everyone, 🎉
I have some great news to share! We just released another update for Storyline 360. In Update 100, we’ve included essential fixes and new features. One of the new features we’ve included is:
- Instantly generate high-quality captions for your audio and video content to boost accessibility.
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.
Hi Kiran! The closed captions editor in Storyline 360 allows you to type in captions for your audio file, but doesn't automatically transcribe the audio into text on its own. If your media clip doesn’t already have captions, the closed captions editor will automatically analyze the audio track to detect units of speech and add caption placeholders to the timeline that are synchronized with your content. All you need to do is type your captions in the placeholders. Check out this page for more information on how to use the closed captions editor!
Storyline also supports SRT, VTT, SBV, and SUB files generated by third-party captioning services, such as YouTube, Amara, and 3PlayMedia. Help on how to import caption files can be found here! Let us know if you have any other questions!
