multiple languages
Hello,
I would like to know if there is a way to present my course in many languages. I have seen your solutions on creating multiple slides and then having multiple copies of the same video, each with their own subtitles/closed captioning. Is there a way to have one video that has multiple subtitle files that can be selected based on the button a user clicks. I imagine maybe 5-10 different languages.
Articulate where are you at with this feature request? It's been 3 years since the initial was raised, with Covid and the rapid uptake of learning, this should have been something on your road maps that's already been addressed.
Like others, I work in a multinational company, need to offer 3-4 languages per course. I don't want to have to reproduce the work for each language or have to do a workaround to get stuff like this happening. If Captivate can do it, why are you still not keeping up?
I just posted a similar question for multiple languages and found this thread. Captivate offers the GEO location where the language changes based on the location of the learner. Is this something that Articulate has on the horizon? I would like to find an option to use one course in different languages - either in notes or CC. any feedback is appreciated.
+1 for the feature here too. I've been asked to add videos to lessons with way too many language options to go with the option of multiple video files.
Hi Alyssa,
Do you know if there are plans that allow the user to choose the caption language per one video file? As you can imagine, having a SL file with multiple copies of the same video makes the file large and cumbersome.Hi Brad,
I haven't seen that type of feature discussed, and as you noted currently it's one caption language per each video file. I'll pass your idea as a feature request to our product team!
Having multiple language subtitles is a huge need. I work for a global company that would benefit GREATLY if we were able to have multiple languages for subtitles. Essentially change the "CC" button to a dropdown that selects the specific .srt file.
Same here William... I just submitted this as a feature request. Brandon Holmes below posits a somewhat viable solution... but it is a bit complex with large projects. At least, it's more complex than it should be (should be a built in feature!).
Here is a solution using simple Javascript!
Currently looking for this solution for 6 languages :(
I really do not want to have to create 6 different courses... or a file that is 6x larger than it has to be.
+1 for this feature, please.
Agreed. I am in the same situation, looking for a solution.
I will agree with everyone asking on this thread. Please do let us know when and how we will be able to provide multiple languages. TIA!
My current and previous companies could use a multi-language srt feature as well. Thanks!
Is there a way to get an alert or email if/when this becomes available?
Hello,
