How do I make Vyond videos interactive?
Vyond’s help center says you cannot add learner interactivity inside Vyond, and suggests that you export the MP4 to a third-party tool. To use Mindstamp, download the MP4 on a paid Vyond plan, select New video > Upload in Mindstamp, and add questions and branching in the editor. Each learner’s answers then show in Mindstamp reports.
Which Vyond plan do I need?
Any paid Vyond plan can download 1080p MP4 files, and the free trial cannot. Monthly downloads range from 50 on Essential to virtually unlimited on Enterprise and Agency. Vyond’s own SCORM export is on Enterprise and Agency. On the Mindstamp side, SCORM export needs Core or higher.
Does Vyond track views of the video?
No. Vyond says it does not host videos and does not provide embed codes, so it never plays the MP4 you download. Mindstamp hosts the uploaded copy, so its reports hold each view and answer.
Vyond suggests Storyline, HapYak, or Captivate. Why use Mindstamp?
Those are the tools Vyond’s help center names. Articulate community threads ask how to add quizzes to Vyond video. Mindstamp places questions and branching on the video itself and reports each learner’s answers. You can still use the result in a course built elsewhere, and the LMS guide shows how.
Do Vyond captions come with the upload?
The Vyond SRT or VTT file does not come in with the MP4. Upload it on the video’s Captions page with Add Caption, or create a Mindstamp transcript. Open captions in Vyond are part of the picture, so they stay in the MP4. See video transcripts.
Can I put the interactive Vyond video in my LMS?
Yes. Select Download SCORM package on the Share page (Mindstamp Core or higher), then add the package to your course, or embed the player in a lesson page. The Mindstamp package loads the hosted interactive video, with its questions, inside the LMS and reports completion and a score. Learners need an internet connection. See SCORM export.
