Storyline Crashes When Inserting Video from File
Hi!
Looking for help to resolve a Storyline issue. When I try to insert a video from file the Storyline Application freezes and then crashes. The video is from my hard drive. I have tried to uninstall and reinstall Storyline twice and it still does the same thing. Any solutions? Thank you!!! David

Hello David, I wish this could be caused due to the size of the video and I'm not sure about it, but could you try to compress the video and see if you can replicate the issue again?

Hi, yes. I don't even get to the point I can select a video. As soon as I click to INSERT > Video from File, the dialogue box opens and it freezes the software and my computer. I can't even get to take a screenshot of it for you. In order to reset I must go to the Task Manager and end the task which closes Storyline. So I never even get to a place where the video is even selected let alone attempting to load. What do you think? Thanks!!! David

Would you be willing to share the video file here so that I can try uploading it at my end?

Hi- You are not understanding the issue. Please read back to my earlier message. The software FREEZES BEFORE I can even select a video to upload. So there is no video to share that failed. Please carefully review these messages. I'm not sure you are paying enough attention. Thanks, David

Did you ever get a solution to this? I'm experiencing the same issue and support keeps trying to tell me it's my video format, but I can't even select a video.
