Articulate Rise - Embedding a YouTube video: need to stop advertising and recommended videos from appearing at the end

Nov 28, 2022

Hi there,

Adding to this subject line, when a learner finishes watching the video I've embedded they're still seeing recommended videos afterwards. Even though I've included "rel=0" in the embedment code.

Here is the code I used:

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/qQEW-CZl3pw?start=000;end=140;rel=0;controls=0" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe> 

I put rel=0 after the end time of 1 minute 40 seconds. Have I done something wrong?

rel

Note: This parameter is changing on or after September 25, 2018.

Prior to the change, this parameter indicates whether the player should show related videos when playback of the initial video ends.
  • If the parameter's value is set to 1, which is the default value, then the player does show related videos.
  • If the parameter's value is set to 0, then the player does not show related videos.

After the change, you will not be able to disable related videos.

Instead, if the rel parameter is set to 0, related videos will come from the same channel as the video that was just played
