Publish to Video is Slow
Hi,
I am trying to publish an 8 min Articulate Storyline 360 video and it is taking over an hour. Is there any way to speed up publishing of these videos?
Hi Everyone!
Great news! I'm happy to share that we just released Storyline 360 (version 3.82.31354.0), which includes a new 64-bit version of Storyline 360! Harness the processing power in modern computers with 64-bit Storyline 360. Large, media-rich courses benefit from increased stability and faster performance!
To use 64-bit Storyline 360, please update your Articulate 360 desktop app, then click the Install button next to the Storyline 360 app with the 64-bit and beta labels. The Install button will change to an Open button when the installation is complete.
This was highly requested, so we hope it serves you in your course creation! If you run into any snags, don't hesitate to contact our team in a support case.
Hi Desiree
I have had some feedback. Apparently this is because Storyline is a 32 bit application and so can access less RAM for video encoding than a 64 bit application, leading to bottlenecks.
There are lots of people asking for a 64 bit version on this forum, to allow us to make full use of the processing power of modern 64bit PCs. It would be good to hear if Articulate have this on their roadmap.
Thank you for your email. Hopefully it's in the pipeline.
That's an excellent point -- I bought a very expensive GPU (thunderbolt connection) for my laptop and it doesn't make that much of a difference (maybe 20%)... so really Storyline is (still????) a 32 bit application?
I think it is. I'm only running an 8700k (its OC's to 5.1ghz) 32gig 3200 ram and a 2080ti, and articulate just takes forever to encode anything. I sent a project I was working on to my buddy who has a 32 core threadripper to see if it was faster, and sadly it wasn't. None of my cores are being slammed like they would be in premier (without using the tensor cores from an rtx gpu). I think at somepoint they just need to update and optimize articulate to take advantage of more cores and gpu processing power.
