Hi,
I posted this question on the general questions yesterday. I haven't heard anything and I wonder if I put in the wrong place. So I am posting my question in the Articulate Product Support here.
I have built a 10 slides storyline file, the size is 292MB. In each slide, there is a video imported. I previewed every slide, making sure every video in the slide works perfect. When I try to publish to LMS, it won't complete publishing.
Here is a screenshot of the screen , it stays like that forever. Please suggest what I should do. Thank you!
Any suggestions, comments are appreciated!

Hi Zhenyu! Normally questions/issues get posted under product support, so you are in the right place now.
I'm not sure what may be going on with your project, but the first thing that I would suggest is to import into a new project in case something in your original project is corrupt.
If you continue to have difficulty, you can contact support so that they can assist you.
Hi Zhenyu,
If Leslie's approach doesn't solve the issue, here's a suggestion:
Make a copy of your project.
Delete all slides except slide 1. Try to publish. If you are able to publish successfully, add the remaining slides back in, one or two at a time, and publish again.
If you reach a point where the publish fails, look at the last slide you just added in, and see if there is anything different about it, or the video content on that slide, compared to the others. Try to isolate that slide -- maybe put it in its own project, and try to publish it.
Given the size of your project, you may want to consider breaking it into multiple modules, and linking them.
Hi Liz and welcome to E-Learning Heroes!
Fantastic suggestions
Hi, I tried the first approach. However, the computer keeps working on publishing on the 7th slide won't proceed for about an hour. I am going to work on the second approach. I will let you know how it goes.
Thank you, both!

Thanks for the update
This may be a dumb question but are you publishing locally or are you trying to publish to a network or shared drive?
Where are the imported videos relative to were you are publishing?
Thanks for all your suggestions. I found I have been having difficulty one particular slide/video when publishing. I ended up reconverted the video in that slide and replace the old video. Now it published OK! Thank you!
To Nancy: I was publishing to a network. The imported video were in my PC.
Hi Zhenyu! Thanks for the update again.
I will say that you need to be sure that you are working locally and publishing/sharing as this article explains.
