Video with transparent background in Storyline 360
Hi guys,
Just wondering if anyone has had any luck getting a video clip with a transparent background into Storyline 360 and if so, what format did you use so that 360 maintains the transparency. ...
Hi Tyler,
What is the file type you see from Adobe Premier or Aftereffects? As Alyssa mentioned we support the FLV videos, but not in the HTML5 output, as it'll re-encode as MP4s.
MP4/H.264 file types don't support transparency in the same way that an FLV video does with alpha channel. Another video format that does support transparency is the .webm video format, but since IE, Safari and Mobile Safari don't support that, we haven't included it in Storyline or Studio.
If there is another file type or feature we're missing, I'd love to know more about it. Feel free to share here or send along details to our Product team as a feature request!
Hi There,
Flash has been dead since 2020, and it does not play in any browser anymore, so there is no point in publishing the videos in Flash.
Will this EVER be possible for SL to recognise published videos with an alpha Chanel from Adobe Premiere or After Effects? Many users have been asking for this feature for years now.
