Videos to Automatically Play in Rise
I am new to Rise and was excited to believe I could use 'the perfect' stock video to play in Storyline. Imagine my disappointment to see the translation from an elegant storyline explanation to a clumsy dark screen with a play button in Rise. Then to find this conversation trail from 12 months ago which looks to have been ignored. I add my small voice to improving this feature please.
Hi Stephanie. I hear what you're saying, and I'm sorry this was frustrating for you.
Web content with media is somewhat at the mercy of modern browsers and their autoplay policies. For example, Chrome requires permission for audio to play with a "click" from the viewer. In order to ensure that learners will be able to both see and hear your video content, we added the play button for Storyline interactions that have audio on the first slide. Without it, learners could see a video with no audio, or a stuck video with no instruction on what to do.
