Is it possible to upload a thumbnail to a video in Rise 360?
Adding one vote for this issue too. The ability to add a thumbnail or poster image to a video would be really useful
Hello StephenR,
Thank you for sharing your request to add a thumbnail or poster image to videos in Rise 360!
I've passed your feedback along to our product team, and we'll keep you updated if there are any changes that address this feature.
Well, it's been 3 years, so I wouldn't hold out hope. It's a shame that the common response from staff is pass the feedback along to the product team. I understand that that's the process, but the amount of times that I've searched for something here, only to find a years old thread and a note from staff to say that it's been passed on, but never an update. Usually, like what's happened here, someone will stumble across the thread, add a comment or ask a related question, then staff will reply to say they've passed it on again. I like Articulate and I'll always recommend your software, but I really wish that you'd action some of the common requests in your forums instead of rolling out minor AI features that don't actually add much value to the development process.
I am completely of the same opinion - Thumbnail selection is a basic feature and state-of-the art in many other places. I have been using Storyline and Rise extensively over the last years and unfortunately always fight with simple things lacking in the tools which would make life so much easier.
Hey just popping in to say I solved this with the Mighty extension. It allows you to upload a thumbnail, control several video features (along with a whole host of other cool functions).
You can check it out here and do a free trial to see if it helps solve this issue for you. I've found it to be one of the best addons I've ever used for Rise.
Here's what the expanded video options look like. You can add the thumbnail, round the corners, hide the play button and set it to autoplay and restrict the video controls. All great features to have handy!
