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.

I have a comment/question that doesn't relate to video but relates to multiple languages in Rise. I only need to create English and French Canadian versions. Would this work: move the already translated French Canadian lesson blocks to below the English blocks in the course. Create a button stack in the beginning of my course to point to the first block of the selected language. On the last block of each of the English and French Canadian versions, create another button to take them back to a Storyline Certification block that has both languages and asks them to click the box to certify and when they do they are taken to the "Exit course" button (translated also in French Canadian). The Exit Course trigger is set to "completed/passed" when they click the button. The Rise course SCORM setting is set to "track using Storyline block".
I haven't tested it in my LMS yet but it really seems like it will work but I'm probably in la-la land so will look forward to insight from smarter people than me.
Thanks!

Hi Pam,
Just now seeing this and I'm sure you've already worked out any kinks you may have encountered, but this is exactly how I control 6 languages, it works well. I run my Storyline block quizzes as separate scenes and use the multi-quiz capabilities to trigger scoring and like you have a button back in Rise to exit to the LMS.
Good luck!
Kelly
Hi Pam, and welcome to E-Learning Heroes. 😊
Your description sounds like a solid plan. Let us know what you find when you test in your LMS and if you need any further assistance.
I'll defer additional ideas to folx in the community smarter than me too.

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?
Absolutely, Beth. By replying, you should now be subscribed to updates posted here.

Hello,
I've exactly the same need: use video the handle several subtitle languages.
I'm using Handbrake to include subtitle in the video . Working welll and free. I can check in VLC that subtitles are correctly managedWhat I need from Storyline (and Rise) is to have a player that manage this feature

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.

Another vote for this feature. Currently looks like Rise can do this, but Storyline can not? Is that right?
- PatrickVINCE321Community Member
Yes, that's right.
What is impressive is the lake of progresses made by Articulate on this subject !!That's years that this feature is requested by many ...
