Video Controls for Embedded Synthesia Video

Hello community,

I'm utilizing Synthesia to create some training videos. I normally download the completed videos and insert them into Articulate Storyline. I am aiming to change this process for the case that there are multiple video update requests, outdated content, etc.

So I am trying to take advantage of the embed code, so that whenever I make an update in Synthesia and publish - it will automatically push that update to wherever the Articulate Training is stored.

The issue I am running into are the Video Controls. With the embed code there doesn't seem to be a way to disable the video controls so that I can utilize Articulates for, play, pause and to turn off seeking. 

Has anybody encountered this or have a solution? Thank you so much for any time and advice!

  • Can you share the embed code that is generated? I've never seen a Synthesia embed code so I am curious - in YouTube there's an option to remove the player controls which inserts ;controls=0 immediately after the URL inside the embed code. No idea if the Synthesia embed code would work the same but maybe worth trying.
