Types of Video Files Compatible in Rise
Hi! I am having a hard time finding information on the types of videos available to upload in Rise. I am looking at a video software and want to make sure before we get it that I can put it in our Rise courses.
I know you can upload .mp4 videos to Rise, but can you upload .MOV , AVI , or .WMV files as well?
Thank you

- Rise handles all of those standard video files. - LeanneReynoldsCommunity MemberHi, current issue with importing AVIs I think. I imported AVI videos and Storyline corrupted my file. I converted the AVI to MP4 using Adobe Media Encoder and reimported into a backup version of the Storyline file and it didn't corrupt. Cheers. 
 
- KaitieNockCommunity MemberThank you! 
- CarolynPerronCommunity MemberCan I use a video from Content Library? I know I can put it into a SL360 course, publish and then insert as a SL block. Wondering if there is a quicker way? And when will the entire Content Library be available when I'm creating a Rise course? 
- Hi, Leanne! - It sounds like you tried importing a video file into Storyline 360, and your Storyline file was corrupted. So sorry that happened! - Storyline should convert AVI files to MP4, so you shouldn't have to use an outside tool to do that. We'd be happy to have a closer look at the video file, if you don't mind sharing it here. We'll delete it when we're done testing. 
- RachelCrabtr843Community MemberDoes RISE convert the bigger movie files formats to make them smaller upon import or should I just do that via Media Encoder prior to uploading into RISE? Thanks! 
- RachelCrabtr843Community Memberlol answered my own question with a bit more digging into other RISE threads. Reference link above :) Warm regards, Rachel Crabtree (Instructional Designer Extraordinaire!) 
- Awesome find, Rachel! Thanks for letting us know you solved it. 😁 
- SusanSvenssonCommunity MemberI am trying to insert a MP4 file into RISE with a file size of 15,638,160 bytes. I have inserted other MP4 files into RISE without any issues. But I get the message that it could not be loaded because the format is not supported or the server /network failed. I have a very strong internet connection. 
- Hi there, Susan. That doesn't exceed our 5 GB limit. If refreshing your page, or trying in a private browser window doesn't help, can you privately share the mp4 file with us? We'll delete it when we're done troubleshooting! 
- SusanSvenssonCommunity MemberThanks - I tried refreshing the page and viewing it in a different browser. That did not work; however,I re-recorded my file, and it uploaded fine. Go figure! Thank you, anyway; I love RISE by the way - That's great news, Susan! And I'm glad you're loving Rise. ☺️
