Can I change a thumbnail on a video?
Right now it is showing a black screen, is there a way to add a thumbnail image from my video as the cover instead of a black screen?

I am a new customer and have just advocated for my company to start using Articulate. I have to say, I am starting to get worried by the number of basic features I've been seeing on the community boards that have been requested more than 3 years ago and still no update. Does the product development team at Articulate take user feedback and requests seriously?
This is another necessary feature to which I add my name on the request list.

You are wise to be worried. Get used to seeing basic requests that are six years old or worse. The Articulate team seems to hold their "road map" as some sort of bible for development focus. The road map contains little focus on improving existing functionality, no matter how basic the features. If it's not on the road map, it doesn't happen, and the road map only goes forward.
Get used to workarounds for simple stuff.

I can only repeat that I assume they're involved in "bigger things" and tidying up what must be a host of detailed requests seems not to be a priority.
It's their train set so they can do as they wish, but knocking off some of the simpler/older/most-requested ones wouldn't be a bad idea.

Bump please add this feature to Rise, having to add a video to another program for what is pretty standard functionality seems silly.

+1 for this functionality to be added.

I have tried all of the suggestions to get a preview image to show instead of the black screen when I upload a video. The sample content for Articulate Rise courses shows a preview image. How can I get it to look like that?

Has there been any update on this at all ?

I'm looking for an update on this functionality request. Are we still waiting for the ability to add a thumbnail to a video so that a black screen is not displayed?
We need the ability to either upload or choose a thumbnail from somewhere in the video. That or allow for embedding the video from somewhere like Wistia or Vimeo where we have already chosen a thumbnail!

Running into this problem almost 3 years later unfortunately :(

Another user to add to the pile of people not getting a response to the simplest of feature requests. Unbelievable this isn't resolved after three years.
