Storyline blocks that contain audio or video in the first slide autoplay in Firefox and Microsoft Edge. They don't autoplay in the latest version of Chrome or Safari, or in mobile browsers, due to browser restrictions.
Our large organization would also find value in the autostart/autostop feature. Users ask why do I have to push play on a decorative type video whereas if it were just playing when they arrive to the page it is a nice feature rather than a chore. Please add the feature.
You can also import your video into storyline, set up triggers to loop the video and then add the storyline block into Rise. I have found this to be the easiest!
I save my videos on a blank Storyline slide with autoplay selected, and upload to Articulate Review.
From Rise, I then add a Storyline block and choose the video from Review. Works great for me, and selecting full width and taking the padding off, looks seamless.
Not to bring this all back up again, but having the option to autoplay videos would be amazing. I understand that it can be an annoyance for some, but whether to include it should be the choice of the content developer, shouldn't it?
Present-state, we have to rely on dirty workarounds like rewrapping video clips as GIFs to enable autoplay, which looks like junk in high-def.
Hi, Xavier! Just in case Zsolt Olah isn't subscribed to this discussion any longer, you can try the Contact Me option on his E-Learning Heroes profile to reach out to him directly.
Chiming in to request this auto-play feature! We'd really like to start using Rise as a video-QRG hybrid (think a text direction step and then an autoplaying 2 second video, another text instruction or two then a still image or video). The play button really interferes with this purpose.
Hi I have not come across the term “animated QRGs” before.
I tried a google search but could not get a result
Can someone please point me to an explanation?
Many thanks

I realize this example is from 3 years ago; however, I am facing the same challenge on a Rise course, and really need my videos to 'Auto-play' rather than having the learner click on the play icon. Are you able to provide the source code for your example? Thank you in advance!
I agree. Autoplay of videos within a course is extremely useful. I'm currently creating a Rise course and want a video to play that accompanies a text paragraph once it is reached. It looks rubbish and interrupts the timings of the appearance of the text and video when the user has to press the play button for the video to start. This should definitely be a function for the purposes of training!!!
I agree! I think that it looks less professional when you have to constantly click play. I also think that there should be an option to add audio that automatically plays with text for accessibility purposes, instead of having to create a separate icon and add an audio file above or below it.
Agreed! Autoplay would allow for a smoother learner experience and then perhaps an option to autoplay or click-to-play if the learner leaves that lesson and comes back to it.
Please consider the option for auto play on videos. This option would create a better user experience even for people like me who are hearing impaired. Storyline provides this feature so would make sense for Rise to also have it. Thank you!
@Jan Ketels It was on the Articulate Feature roadmap for the past year, with a status of "Planning", but it has since been removed. My organization is having similar arguments to step away from RISE and Articulate because of the many feature limitations that are not being addressed.

Zsolt can you please share how you achieved this workaround?

how did you make it autoplay, autoscroll?

THANK YOU for this GIF suggestion, even if not ideal. This will work great for my animated QRGs.

Hi Cameron - I may be making the term up :) Something new I'm trying to replicate what I've seen elsewhere like this - https://support.powtoon.com/en/article/adding-a-video-to-your-powtoon-4226001
YES, please! This is a much needed option in Rise 360.

I have the same question! I would like my embedded videos in Rise to Autoplay. Did you ever receive a solution?

Totally agree, Holly!
This would be awesome! Totally agree Team!
