Empty spaces above and below the screen in screen recording

Hi

We are evaluating Storyline for simulation-based courses.

Our screen display is set to 1920 x 1080 resolution. When we record the screen with Full Screen or with slide size of 1920 x 1080, we see an empty space above and below the screen. I have attached a sample screenshot for reference.

How to avoid that? Please suggest. 

Thanks

Sreekanth

  • Based on the slide and some measurements from your image, the slide size is clearly 4:3 and the screen recording is 16:9.

    I did a test where I had the slide size at 4:3 and then recorded at 16:9 and it looks just like yours. https://a.cl.ly/ApumARoY

    I'd double check that the slide size is 16:9. If it isn't you may be able to change the slide to 16:9 and reinsert the video. If it is 16:9, you could try to change to 4:3 and then back to 16:9 and see what happens.

    Regardless, based on your screenshot, the video recorded was 16:9 and inserted onto a 4:3 slide. If you need further assistance, contact our support team and they can look at the file.

     

  • Hello Sreekanth,

    It looks like you may also need to adjust your Slide Size to 1920x1080.  An then reinsert the Screen Recording.
