How to export complete Close Captioning in Word document
I saw this message a bit late and not sure if this would have helped you anyway as there is still the major task of making sense of each file due to the filenames being system and not human friendly.
The method I use to grab all VTT files is to:
- Make a copy of your Storyline project file
- Change the extension from .story to .zip
- Extract the package
- Navigate to the Media folder
- Copy all VTT files from the folder
It's a good way to grab all VTT files, but the file names are not helpful for humans. They are coded for the project. I'm just sharing this in case it is useful to anybody else who just needs to grab a bunch of assets from a course (video, images, captions) without having to export individualy.
You cannot sort the VTT files in slide order, so you would have to cross reference the VTT files with the slides.
So let me know which is faster, this process or just open the Text to Speech in slide order to create the transcript?
Alternatively, you can use this modified script to compile all captions from your story_content folder into a single Word document (aligning with the original topic of this inquiry). The script extracts the data from every _captions.js file and bundles them into one organized document.
