Screen recording action not showing in published video.

Hi there. I need to understand what is going on. I have created a short course using screen recordings. Once I Publish to video format, the screen recording actions don't play. They remain static at the point where they start on each slide. What is happening here? Please help?!?

  • Hi Caro_Zwarts

    I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble viewing your screen recordings correctly when publishing your Storyline course to Video. I tested this out with screen recordings on my end, and they play as expected. 

    • It would be helpful to know more about the screen recording settings in your current setup. When you inserted the screen recordings, did you include a video on a single slide or View Try or Test mode in Step-by-step Slides? 
    • Is this behavior isolated to this course or are you experiencing this with other Storyline projects you are working on with screen recordings incorporated? 
    • Are you able to publish the course using Review, Web, or any other publishing options with the screen recording playing as expected? I'm curious to know if this is isolated to one publishing output. 


    It would be helpful to take a closer look at your file. Feel free to share your .story file with us in this thread or privately in a support case

    Looking forward to hearing from you!

        Great call opening a support case! I see that you're working with my colleague Mark. You're in excellent hands!

        We'll continue the conversation over in your case.

    Hi LucianaPiazza 

    Thanks for you response. The screen recordings were View mode in step-by-step slides. This is the first time I'm encountering this problem - granted I've never needed the screen recordings to actually play before. They seem to work just fine in Review - will test web output now. Unfortunately, the course contains extracts from proprietary banking software and as such I can't share the project in a public forum but I would be happy to send it to you personally if that helps.
