Closed captions are essential for accessibility, but manually transcribing your content can be time-consuming and prone to errors. With AI Assistant in Storyline 360, you can automatically generate high-quality captions when adding audio or video content. Plus, you can review and approve captions before publishing to ensure accuracy. Read on to learn more about generating, reviewing, and approving AI-generated captions. Generate Captions Generating captions with AI Assistant is fast and easy. Use any of the following methods to get started. In Slide View, go to the Insert tab on the ribbon, then click Audio or Video from the media section. This opens your local file explorer so you can select your audio or video file. Drag and drop your audio or video content into the slide. If you have existing audio or video content in the media library, go to the View tab on the ribbon, select Media Library to open it, and then switch to the Audio or Video tab. Select your content, then click the Insert Video or Insert Audio Clip button on the lower right. Once you’ve imported your media content, you have a few quick options to generate captions: Click Generate with AI in the video options under the Video Tools—or audio options under the Audio Tools—tab on the ribbon. Right-click your media content and hover over Closed Captions, and then click Generate. Right-click your media content and select Accessibility. This opens the Size and Position window to the Accessibility tab. Under Closed Captions, click the sparkle icon for Generate Captions. Go to the View tab on the ribbon and click Media Library. In the Audio or Video tab, select your content and then click the Generate captions button in the Captions tab on the right. Open the accessibility checker by clicking Accessibility Issues in the status bar at the bottom, or by going to the View tab in the ribbon and selecting Accessibility Checker. Under the All Issues tab, expand the row for Captions added, select a line item, and click the Generate captions button on the right. When AI Assistant generates captions, a “Processing” indicator appears in the status bar on the lower right. Clicking it brings up a list of captioning jobs currently being processed. You may continue working while AI Assistant generates captions in the background. When the caption generation completes, “Processing” changes to “Processing complete,” and each item on the list will have a “View” link next to it. Click the link to review and approve the generated captions. Note that captions are generated in the same language spoken in your audio or video content. If caption generation fails, AI Assistant displays specific error messages to help you troubleshoot the problem. Review and Approve Captions To ensure accuracy, review and approve your AI-generated captions. Follow any of these methods to open the Closed Captions Editor window. Click Manage Captions in the video options under the Video Tools—or audio options under the Audio Tools—tab on the ribbon. Right-click your media content and hover over Closed Captions, and then click Manage. Right-click your media content and select Accessibility. This opens the Size and Position window to the Accessibility tab. Under Closed Captions, click the pencil icon for Manage Captions. Open the media library, select your content in the Audio or Video tab, and then click the Needs Review button under the Captions tab on the right. Go to the All Issues tab in the accessibility checker, expand the row for Generated captions reviewed, select a line item, and click the Review captions button on the right. Click the “Processing Complete” indicator in the status bar on the lower right, and then click View next to the name of your media content on the list. This article describes how to use the closed captions editor to manually edit your captions. After reviewing the AI-generated captions, click the Approve button on the upper right. Close the window when you’re finished. Tips: When you open the publishing window without approving the AI-generated captions, a link to the accessibility checker appears so you can review and approve generated captions. If you share a project with unapproved captions, users running the latest version of Storyline 360 can view and approve them even if they don’t have AI Assistant enabled. But if they’re using an older Storyline version without AI Assistant enabled, they won’t be able to open the project until you approve the captions and resave the file. Supported file formats for audio include OGG, WAV, and MP3. For videos, only MP4, MOV, and AVI files are supported.1.2KViews2likes0CommentsAI Assistant in Storyline 360: Voice Library
You already know that AI Assistant makes generating ultra-realistic text-to-speech narrations easy. Now, with the addition of a voice library with thousands of voices and intuitive search and filter options, finding the right voice for your content is even easier. Keep reading to learn how to use the voice library in Storyline 360. Browse Voices Start exploring with either of the following methods: In Slide View, go to the Home or Insert tab on the ribbon. Then, click the Insert Audio drop-down arrow and choose Voices. In Slide View, go to the Insert tab and click the Audio drop-down arrow. Then, hover over AI Audio and choose Voices. When the Generate AI Audio window displays, click the Voice Library button on the right. On the next screen, you’ll see a list of all the available voices in the library. Each row displays the name, description, and other details about the voice. Scroll down the list to load more voices. Some voices have long descriptions, so some of the text may be hidden. Hover over the description to reveal a tooltip with the complete text. Preview Voices To preview a voice, click the play icon—a little circle with a play button—just to the left of each name. You can preview voices one at a time. Use a Voice Once you find the voice you want, click the Use button located on the right. This adds the chosen voice to your library under the My Voices tab. The screen then automatically switches to the Text-to-Speech tab, where you can generate narrations using the selected voice. If you find a voice you’d like to use later, save it to your library by clicking the Add to My Voices pill button located just to the left of the Use button. Once added, the button changes state to display Remove from My Voices. If you want to remove the voice from your library, click the button and it reverts to its initial state. You can add up to 10 voices to your library. The Added Voices counter in the upper right corner displays the remaining number of voices you can add. Once you’ve added 10, the buttons become grayed out. Other information about each voice is shown at the top of the buttons. Find the date a voice was added, its quality, the number of times it’s been added to user libraries, the total number of audio characters the voice has generated, and the removal notice period. Voice Removal Notice Period A voice may have a notice period, which specifies how long you’ll be able to access the voice if its creator decides to remove it from the voice library. When that happens, the removed voice will no longer be available from the library. If you’ve previously added it to My Voices, the removed voice will still appear on your list and can be used to generate new content, but you’ll see a warning and the date when it’s no longer available. Once the notice period expires, the voice will display an error, and it can no longer be previewed or used to generate new content. You can remove it to free up one of your 10 custom voice slots. Most voices have notice periods, but some don’t. Voices without a notice period disappear immediately from My Voices and the voice library if the voice creator decides to delete them. Generated content using a voice that’s been removed from the voice library will continue to function as a regular audio file. Search, Sort, and Filter Voices Right above the list of voices are the search, sort, and filter functions. From there, you can do any of the following: Search specific voices by entering text into the search box. You can search voices by name, keyword, or description. Note that voice library uses a fuzzy search technique—finding results that are similar to, but not necessarily an exact match for, the given search term. Reorder the list by Trending, Latest, Most Used, or Most Characters Generated using the Sort dropdown menu. By default, voices are sorted by Most Used. Find voices based on age, gender, and use case with Filters. The table below provides a list of available options for each filter. Age Young, Middle aged, Old Gender Man, Woman, Non-binary Use Case Narrative & Story, Conversational, Characters & Animation, Social Media, Entertainment & TV, Advertisement, Informative & Educational2.4KViews0likes0CommentsBeyond Click-and-Read: Crafting Engaging E-Learning with AI Assistant

To keep the pop-up window from reappearing, mark the box for “Don’t ask again.” To edit the suggested alt text, click on the text field. Click the Apply to all button if you want to use the same alt text for all instances of that object in your project. Click the Close button when you’re done.

Before you can add alt text to an object, verify that the box labeled Object is visible to accessibility tools is checked. (It should be checked by default.)
