Interactive Video within a Rise Course?
We have done exactly what Ronald described, and managed to pull the new content types into a Rise course using an Embed block.
While it technically "worked" the result was completely unusable from learner UX and UI perspectives. Yes, we tried several different embed code settings, e.g. changed the height, etc.
While the Interactive videos are extremely useful to us, until they are available as native Rise blocks, we will be unable to use them.
Karl, thank you for actually testing this — that's worth more than a dozen theories. "Technically works but unusable for learners" is an important distinction, and it confirms the embed bridge has a real ceiling. What specifically broke on the UX side? Was it scaling on smaller screens, the interactive controls not fitting the embed frame, or the interactive elements not responding properly inside Rise? Knowing which part failed would help everyone calibrate whether any embed settings can salvage it or whether it's a hard wait for native blocks.
