Prevent user from fast forwarding through Audio
Is there a way to prevent the user from advancing the slider in audio/video blocks?
We are trying to make sure the learner can't advance through the media elements of the e-Learning.
Hi Sean,
Depending on the type of video and lesson you're using, there is a new option here to disable forward seeking.
You may also want to look at the Continue block, and play around with how that may work for your course!
Is there a way to disable forward seeking in AUDIO the same way as is now available for video? If a developer went through the effort to create an audio component it should be afforded the same functional benefits.
I am authoring in Rise.
Hi - has there been any update on audio fast forward restrictions
Recognizing that this is an old post, I would also like to have the ability to restrict fast-forwarding audio track in Articulate Rise, as I am able to do for videos.
Any updates to this?
Hi there! No current updates for this, but thanks for letting us know you're interested in seeing this feature. We'll update you here if we make any changes that help!
Thanks for trying, but Articulate seems content to wait at least two years before acting on simple feature request enhancements. Again, a feature that already exists for their video applications that should be simple to migrate to audio, but they don't even bother to perodically check back in on threads like this or provide any updates until someone necroposts.
Hi there David!
Thanks for reaching out to us here and in your other discussion. We're always on the lookout for new feature ideas, so this is certainly something I can share with our Rise team for consideration. Thanks!
Thanks for checking in, Hamta. There isn't a way to add fast-forward restrictions on audio in Rise 360, but I'll let our team know you have a need for that feature!
Thanks for letting us know you need that option, Allen. We'll send you an update if we add this feature in the future!
I too am needing this feature to prevent people from just skipping through safety trainings. Please, Please, Please PLEASEEEEEEE migrate the application as you do for video to the audio also. I'm begging! :-) The rumor of people figuring this out has spread like wild fire through our company...I have to prevent those cheaters dang it!
Thanks for chiming in, Lindsay. I'm sorry I don't have a timeline for this enhancement at this time.
Hello! How are we on this? I have been forcing myself to use storyline, which I am honestly not a fan of due to the complexity of it compared to being spoiled with Rise 360. Then adding the storyline block to my Rise 360. I didn't see this on the "list" of being updated...anyway we can move this up the line! :-)
Hi Lindsay! Thanks for the follow-up on this feature. No updates on this yet, and it isn't on our current roadmap.
Depending on developmental cycles, resources, and how a feature impacts the community, this will help us decide on its priority. If you'd like to learn more about how we handle feature requests, here’s our process.
