Text-to-Speech Issues & Sample Library Idea
Hi! I am no longer experiencing this, as it took a long time troubleshooting with Articulate Support and our IT department. Turns out, Windows Media Player (Legacy version) was not installed. Try checking and installing that to see if that fixes the issue. That did it for me!
Hi LeeMillardButlr,
Happy to help!
Would you mind sharing the steps you took to test the audio files that weren't paying properly in Storyline 360? I'd like to see if I can replicate the behavior to understand what's happening.
You also don't need a repository to share voice samples with your client. You just need to add all the voice samples to a single Storyline 360 course, publish the course to Review 360 and share the link with your client so they can listen to each voice sample in the course.
Looking forward to hearing from you!
Hello Jose,
The problem is clearly on my side, because no one else is reporting it and I am taking the same steps to do it as others have. I simply go into the text-to-speech area and next to each voice is a play button icon. After clicking this play button, nothing happens. But what should happen, is I should hear a sample of the voice. Even after generating the voice over, I need to exit out of that window to go back to my timeline and then preview it. Do I need to reinstall SL or is there a repair feature?
Also, just adding the voices to a SL course is fine, but having a filterable repository would still be a better solution. This way you can filter to the style, gender, and language you want.
Thanks for your help!
