I have three iframe embedded videos, one on each tab of an interactive tabs block in Rise. During testing, once the section is loaded/displayed on the screen, all three videos start playing at the same time. Is there something I can do to stop this auto-playing? Thanks!
Hi there, Erin. Are you adding the video in Storyline to make sure folks view the entire video? If not, are you able to add it directly to your Rise 360 lesson using the embed block?
We'd love to have a look at your actual project files to give you some personalized help. Feel free to share with us privately by using this link.
Looks like a work around to a video/audio created in SL from automatically playing in Rise is to add slide that has the user click play. I just created something like this:
Here we are in 2023, and I am having this issue as well! Embedded video (actually a narrated piece embedded as a SL block) plays as soon as the page loads, even though it's 3/4 down the page.
It does not do that in Review 360, FYI, only in the LMS.
Thanks for your reply. I have been out of the office for family.
Unfortunately, I just don't have time to do a back and forth with this issue anymore. I am so disappointed with Articulate that you have still not adressed this issue globally, rather than as a one-off situation each time a user expresses the need for a solution. This has been going on for ages. Sadly, I will implement my own work around by adding a slide in the SL file so the user clicks play.
Come on - get with it! With so many users needing this fixed, prioritize.
Having this issue as well and adding a Continue button ruins the look and feel of the end product.
Has there been any other solutions developed?
I resorted to using the tip another User wrote about by adding a "play" slide to front of all my storyline projects being brought into RISE. Again not ideal, but a much better option than the "continue" button.
Hopefully this is seriously looked at resolving with the new Rise features being added in the future.
You know, I get that this maybe wasn't a priority for you, but you think it could have been addressed in four years. I've pretty much stopped using Rise unless I really need to.
The continue divider doesn't even show up in the LMS version. WTF. This is ridiculous... 3 - 4 years later still an issue and my company is paying for a license and I can't even use this product!
Yup... this is some real professionalism. I need to get on a zoom meeting because this is unacceptable. My company should be compensated for the time wasted spent on this product that can't be used.
Storyline blocks play automatically by default, which can cause interference when there are multiple Storyline blocks in the same Rise 360 lesson. Here are some ways to prevent Storyline blocks from overlapping.
Use only static content on the first slide of each Storyline block so there aren't any sounds or animations to distract learners from other content in the Rise 360 lesson.
If the first slide of each Storyline block has media or animations, add a trigger that pauses the timeline of the first slide when the timeline starts. Then, add a button to the first slide of each Storyline block that lets learners resume the timeline when they're ready to proceed.
We are experiencing the same issue with autoplay. Any luck in developing a solution? The video block is actually the 4th content block on the page but still begins playing as soon as the page loads.

Hi,
have you tried using a "sandbox"? That seemed to solve the problem on my project:
sandbox - blocks all scripts and automations for the iframe-content
allowfullscreen - enables optional fullscreen
Found it here: html - How to disable auto-play for local video in iframe - Stack Overflow
Sandbox-documentation: HTML iframe sandbox Attribute (w3schools.com)
I would also like to know how to stop auto play on audio/videos in Rise that were built in Storyline. There has to be a solution to this issue.
Thanks

Please tell me there's a solution!
Your posts appeared after I posted mine below, I missed them somehow! I'll take a look at your workaround. Thanks for sharing!!

Is there a resolution to this yet? Or is the Continue button still the only option?
Hi Tomer,
Thanks for reaching out! I'd like to ask a few troubleshooting questions so we can address your issue appropriately:
Hi Eric,
Thank you, these are Storyline blocks in my case...
Thanks, Tomer!
