How to export complete Close Captioning in Word document
I gave the script from caption challenge a try today.
1) Tried to export the individual captions from Media Library, all out of order, Nope
2) Tried to export the mp3 files and speech to text in Premiere Pro, too many text issues, Nope
3) Opened each slide, in order, and copied the Text to Speech into a txt document. Took many hours, but done, Ugh!
You can use a simple HTML/JavaScript to scan your published story_content folder for _captions.js files and automatically convert them into readable .vtt files saved directly to a folder of your choice.
Since Storyline uses randomized file names, batch-renaming them into the exact slide order isn't straightforward; however, this script solves that by automatically renaming each file using the first few words of the actual narration. This makes it easy to identify which slide each transcript belongs to at a glance. Check out the example in action below.
