Rise and Audio
Has this feature been implemented? I know many times when we are creating content, we run into the same situations where we will put content in the block and the SME may want to record a voice over in the backgroud to play automatically to discuss the content. This is most likely not word for word, for example it could be a graph of statistics and the voiceover could be a brief summary. Of course this could be created in SL or PPT and imported, however the flow isn't as smoothe as creating it in Rise.
Hi Jen. Last year, staff member Crystal Horn replied to me saying:
Media in Rise must be clicked to play (unless it’s an animated image, like a .GIF).
We have shied away from auto-start of media because it’s not a web-standard experience on multi-device. Most phone browsers actually prevent auto-play of media. It usually needs to be user-initiated.
As far as I know that hasn't changed, unless there's been an update that I haven't heard about...
