How often does Rise ping the LMS?
I am considering creating a very video heavy Rise course. However, I am worried about my LMS timing out. Does Rise contact the LMS after each move to a new page?

Yes, that is helpful! Thanks to you both, Alyssa and Crystal. This helps make the decision of whether to prevent forward progress or not.
On the one hand, I want to make sure learners don't skip content. But on the other hand, I don't want learners getting stuck having to watch content they already have viewed. In a perfect world people would always have a steady and reliable internet connection to the LMS, for example. In that world I would always disable forward progress. But in the real world, making someone watch 10 minutes of a video they already watched because they got interrupted is really frustrating to the learner. So.. I can't bring myself to disabling forward progress to be honest. I'll only do it if the client makes me! :-)
