Video Publish: How Do I Choose a Display Frame?

I am publishing a Storyline as a video. I'd like my title slide to be the frame that displays when the video is sitting idle, awaiting the user to click the play button.  However, it published my final frame, which is the black rectangle I use to fade to black. How do I choose, or can I choose, my opening slide as the first frame?

    Hi Andrea!

    It sounds like you are trying to customize the thumbnail for a published-to-video Storyline course.

    That type of functionality is not native to Storyline yet, however, there are workaround steps you can take to achieve this. 

    1. Insert the published MP4 video into Replay 360.
    2. Then insert an image that will appear before the video starts.
    3. Now republish the video as an MP4.

    The image will appear as a thumbnail instead of a blank screen. This guide provides more details on adding images to Replay 360.

    Please let me know if you have any more questions!
