GUID script embed codes in Rise?
I'm new at Rise, but have been using Muse for years. Much of our online training is internally-faced, and contains videos served from a premise-based streaming server, which provides iframe embeds.
However, I'm now working on an externally-faced training piece which references videos from a cloud streaming platform that generates scripts as embed codes referencing GUIDs (Qumu cloud, to be specific.) I guess Rise is expecting to see "<iframe..." in a video embed, and doesn't like "<script...." as the first word it sees.
I tried inserting a code snippet, which didn't reject the format; but that just posts the code text, not the thumbnail of the video. I create content and produce video, but I'm not a coder, so this is just outside my reach
Has anyone been able to make Rise happy with script-based embeds?
Hi Jeffrey,
Code snippet blocks only display code, but does not execute code. This is a static block type that is used to display code segments/snippets when teaching people how to code.
Rather use a Multimedia Embed block. It can handle basic iframe statements.
Thanks, Karl, that's exactly what I saw the code snippet do, so now I know to avoid that one. I'm also trying the Multimedia Embed, but script-based embeds don't seem to work in it.
Update : I simply pulled the necessary elements for the embed out of the page URL while the video was playing. So I solved this issue, but also discovered that the video auto-plays; so now I'm off to figure out another issue. :)
