Publishing to Video and Closed Captioning or Subtitles
I am publishing a series of videos using Storyline 360 and I have been asked to have closed captioning on the videos. I was able to take from my notes section and add captioning to each slide and when I play the slides I can click on the CC icon to view the words, however, when I publish the course as a video the closed captioning does NOT appear on the screen.
How do I publish a complete course as a video and have closed captioning play on the video?
Hi, everyone!
I have some great news to share. We just released another update for Storyline 360. In Update 73, we’ve included important fixes and new features!
One new feature we’ve included:
Boost video accessibility by including closed captions when publishing projects as MP4 video files.
To take advantage of this update, launch the Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer, and click the Update button next to Storyline 360. You'll find our step-by-step instructions here.
Please let me know if you need additional help!
Hi everyone! Was this feature added to Storyline 360?
I am working on a Storyline that has closed captions and when I publish to video, closed captioning won't play. Also, the Player.DisplayCaptions variable set to true (as Michael mentioned earlier) is not working. Is there another workaround?
Help! Thanks!

Accessibility is a priority, it would be great if we could get this feature. Thanks!
I'd also like to be updated on this, it is really needed in our institution!
Hi, just wondering if there has been any update? I am creating a series of videos and will need closed captioning functionality.

I am adding my request for this feature into this thread as well. We need to be able to see our closed captions when exporting the Storyline to video.
Over the past months of trying to get this to work, I have implemented a work around. I have installed the captions trigger as suggested by a previous community member and then have published my Storyline 360 to Review 360 and uploaded to my Rise course as a Storyline block instead of a video.
Hello Mary,
Thanks so much for reaching out!
We appreciate you sharing your workaround with the E-Learning Heroes Community!
We will update this forum with any news and updates on this feature request.
Have a wonderful afternoon! ☀️
Any more updates on when allowing closed captioning on storyline 360 published videos might happen?
