Storyline loading time on Thinkfiic
I've been uploading storyline files on Thinkific and on team review, I was told that some of the lessons take a long time to load.
I have a theory for this, but I'm not sure if it's correct. I would appreciate it if anyone can help.
I use Pararell on my mac, and I know that Articulate suggest uploading assets directly from files on Windows. I've been testing, and Storyline is not as slow if I use the assets directly from Windows. So that's one positive aspect, but, does that have any effect on final product loading time? I'm not sure how, but I want to know if this is the case.
Also, is there a way to find out the location of every asset I uploaded to Storyline?
Thanks a lot :)
on the start storyline is loading
- the web player
- all fonts of the course
- all screen text of the course
- all menu infos
- description of the first slide
- all images of the first slide
- all audios from the first slide
- if there is a video on the first slide - first part of video
- if everthing is started the "dot waiting animation" disappears
for testing the start time - upload the course to Review 360 and test direct with your Mac
you find the media in the subfolder of the publish folder
./story_content/
- audio (.mp3)
- video (.mp4)
- 360° images (.png / .jpg)
- svg images (.svg in .js)
- captions (text in .js)
- transcripts (text in .js)
./mobile/ 🡄 name is misleading (it's for desktop & mobile)
- images (.png / .jpg / .gif)
./html5/data/js/
- description of the slides (js)
./html5/data/css/output.min.css
- all used fonts ...
important: storyline don't uses the original filenames for publish and you can not see to which slide it belongs
Is speed same on review and thinkific? Review doesn't have any authentication I presume thinkific does, and it maybe checking you are authorised to view every file instead of just the package. It shouldn't be a Mac/PC issue
