Poor Video Resolution in Rise
- 2 years ago
Hi folks! We have a new, helpful tip for maintaining high resolution video quality in your lessons:
If you'd like a video to keep its specific file format and not undergo compression, you can opt-out of image optimization on a case-by-case basis. Just add
_NOPROCESS_
to the name of your video file. It'll upload and display exactly as you saved it.* Keep in mind, using this method bypasses transcoding and compression, so learners may encounter issues with playback across different devices. File size limits still apply.

Are you using video files eg .mp4 files or embedding videos. Embedding IMHO is the way to go as it enable what's called adaptive streaming - how YouTube works.
Scroll down to "Embedding videos in an authoring tool (Storyline)" and then there are some videos about adaptive streaming and advantages of embedding videos.
