Embeded video content but especially YouTube videos, displays message "failed to load, try again later" inside youtube video frame. This is temperamental and works on some pcs. Also trying to proceed past embed video pages has proved problematic with the next screen going 'black'. 2. Contents button, sometimes returning to homepage instead of selected page. This is usually the page before or after embedded video. At the moment its failing to get past one of our LO embed video pages. You might be able to replicate this through a LO of the above point. http://www.sehrdg.com/moodle/xerte/play.php?template_id=306 Are there any solutions to the above?

Can you remove that plain text page from your example and try again? If that doesn't fix it remove the embed content page too? In my experience this is usually only a problem when using IE but doesn't happen if you stick to the dedicated YouTube pages. I think it's because the YouTube player is 'killed' properly when moving on from those pages but not when embedded in the other page types. But that's guesswork rather than fact.

The LO used 2 of the page types you mentioned and was the cause of the problem. I have deleted the pages as you suggested and included the following: Misc > YouTube video page (page 3) Nav > Embeded content page (page 4) I can navigate as far as page 4 but cant get beyond this. It would appear to be the Misc > embeded content page that is causing us a number of problems. I'm working from home on my own pc which is relatively reliable. Using IE9.

Can you remove that plain text page from your example and try again? If that doesn't fix it remove the embed content page too? In my experience this is usually only a problem when using IE but doesn't happen if you stick to the dedicated YouTube pages. I think it's because the YouTube player is 'killed' properly when moving on from those pages but not when embedded in the other page types. But that's guesswork rather than fact.

Embeded video content but especially YouTube videos, displays message "failed to load, try again later" inside youtube video frame. This is temperamental and works on some pcs. Also trying to proceed past embed video pages has proved problematic with the next screen going 'black'. 2. Contents button, sometimes returning to homepage instead of selected page. This is usually the page before or after embedded video. At the moment its failing to get past one of our LO embed video pages. You might be able to replicate this through a LO of the above point. http://www.sehrdg.com/moodle/xerte/play.php?template_id=306 Are there any solutions to the above?

The LO used 2 of the page types you mentioned and was the cause of the problem. I have deleted the pages as you suggested and included the following: Misc > YouTube video page (page 3) Nav > Embeded content page (page 4) I can navigate as far as page 4 but cant get beyond this. It would appear to be the Misc > embeded content page that is causing us a number of problems. I'm working from home on my own pc which is relatively reliable. Using IE9.

Can you remove that plain text page from your example and try again? If that doesn't fix it remove the embed content page too? In my experience this is usually only a problem when using IE but doesn't happen if you stick to the dedicated YouTube pages. I think it's because the YouTube player is 'killed' properly when moving on from those pages but not when embedded in the other page types. But that's guesswork rather than fact.

Embeded video content but especially YouTube videos, displays message "failed to load, try again later" inside youtube video frame. This is temperamental and works on some pcs. Also trying to proceed past embed video pages has proved problematic with the next screen going 'black'. 2. Contents button, sometimes returning to homepage instead of selected page. This is usually the page before or after embedded video. At the moment its failing to get past one of our LO embed video pages. You might be able to replicate this through a LO of the above point. http://www.sehrdg.com/moodle/xerte/play.php?template_id=306 Are there any solutions to the above?

Just after some help with inserting audio clips into image hot spot in connectors. Loving the new connectors over the old hot spot but I haven't quite mastered adding audio clips. This is what I've done, could someone tell me how I should do it please? 1. Created a 'sound' from 'optional properties', created a hot spot on an image and uploaded an MP3 audio clip. When I click on the hot spot an intermediate box appears saying 'download file', when I click on this, audio file appears in Media player, sound plays but if I navigate away from this page or hit another hotspot the sound continues, how do I stop it playing without having to click back on the audio hot spot and downloading file - which seems to stop it? 2. Created another hot spot 'sound'. This time uploaded wav file, this time an audio toolbar loads (great) but when I click the play button the audio track doesn't play. Why? What am I doing wrong?

Upload the .mp4 first then the .flv e.g. video1.mp4 followed by video1.flv Regarding the sound issue I'm not sure if it's just the fact that linux servers are case sensitive or if the currnt code only looks for lower case .mp3 but your xml has the following: FileLocation + 'media/ZOOM0004.MP3' but when you download the file it's ZOOM0004.mp3 Try re-naming the file locally with a lowercase .mp3 and re-uploading. in fact it's good practice to keep everything lowercase anyway and avoid spaces and special characters etc. Works for me with your mp3 click the middle of the pic in this test http://mitchellmedia.co.uk/xot/play_74 HTH Ron From: xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk [mailto:xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk] On Behalf Of Bardell Jason Sent: 04 July 2013 14:48 To: 'Xerte discussion list' Subject: [Xerte] Re: Connectors Hot spot image connector & Audio Hi Johnathan Thanks for getting back.

If you are using LDAP for authentication visit http://yourinstall/upgrade.php to automatically copy details from sitedeatils to ldap table 5. change from guest to ldap or one of the other authentication options in auth_config.php by commenting/un-commenting the relevant line 6. If you are using Moodle for authentication read and follow the instructions in the moodle_integration_readme file 7. refresh index.php and test login and creation etc A final point - there isn't a maintenance mode like these is in Moodle for preventing non-admins logging in during upgrade and you dodn't want people creating new LO's in case you do have to revert back so perhaps schedule this and notify people and/or rename index.php temporarily so only you can visit and test etc. Don't ask me what it means though - I'm only messenger boy in these matters...

Opera 12.1.5 Every page works well - videos, interactivities and everything else. IE v10 Slide 5 (clickable map) didn't work Slide 9 to 14 and slide 24 had voices only - no images or text showing. The videos all worked. Google Chrome Blank white screen - couldn't get anything to show. As I understand it FireFox and Opera are the most standards compliant browsers which might explain why they work so well. Not sure what the issues are with IE and Chrome though - unfortunately they are probably the most popular browsers for many.

Two You-tube videos embedded within the HTML 5 presentation appeared blank similarly an interactive map with hotspots added. When we switched the document to Flash everything was as normal (we lost a little formatting on one page). We use IE 9 at college. Last night I played the HTML 5 Learning Object within Chrome and it worked fine. Can anyone offer any solutions as we are looking to add an "Induction" Learning Object to our VLE in September to support the student induction programme?

Opera 12.1.5 Every page works well - videos, interactivities and everything else. IE v10 Slide 5 (clickable map) didn't work Slide 9 to 14 and slide 24 had voices only - no images or text showing. The videos all worked. Google Chrome Blank white screen - couldn't get anything to show. As I understand it FireFox and Opera are the most standards compliant browsers which might explain why they work so well. Not sure what the issues are with IE and Chrome though - unfortunately they are probably the most popular browsers for many.

As I understand it FireFox and Opera are the most standards compliant browsers which might explain why they work so well.

Ours went black and we were unable to navigate past this page. It turns out the embedded code we used from YouTube needed cleaning up and we had to change page type to YouTube Video page. I have created a LO in 1.8 but when I toggle to HTML 5 in 2.0 the embedded webpage doesn?t display correctly (only header section visible), which reminds me I need to play with that LO today. Good luck with the embedded page, hope you get it sorted.

I had not used the URL or embed link at home. However when using either the URL or Embed code, to show the activity, while the first screen showed on the screen initially it did so very briefly and then presented a white screen and no object.

Ours went black and we were unable to navigate past this page. It turns out the embedded code we used from YouTube needed cleaning up and we had to change page type to YouTube Video page. I have created a LO in 1.8 but when I toggle to HTML 5 in 2.0 the embedded webpage doesn?t display correctly (only header section visible), which reminds me I need to play with that LO today. Good luck with the embedded page, hope you get it sorted.

Opera 12.1.5 Every page works well - videos, interactivities and everything else. IE v10 Slide 5 (clickable map) didn't work Slide 9 to 14 and slide 24 had voices only - no images or text showing. The videos all worked. Google Chrome Blank white screen - couldn't get anything to show. As I understand it FireFox and Opera are the most standards compliant browsers which might explain why they work so well. Not sure what the issues are with IE and Chrome though - unfortunately they are probably the most popular browsers for many.

Two You-tube videos embedded within the HTML 5 presentation appeared blank similarly an interactive map with hotspots added. When we switched the document to Flash everything was as normal (we lost a little formatting on one page). We use IE 9 at college. Last night I played the HTML 5 Learning Object within Chrome and it worked fine. Can anyone offer any solutions as we are looking to add an "Induction" Learning Object to our VLE in September to support the student induction programme?

It opens fine on my ipad ditto open my home computer on several browsers so it must be something to do with computer setting at the college I was at.... but unless I can identify what the problem is am going to need to use Flash for demos elsewhere which is not ideal. Creating two versions is not really ideal either although is one option.

The videos all worked. Google Chrome Blank white screen - couldn't get anything to show. As I understand it FireFox and Opera are the most standards compliant browsers which might explain why they work so well. Not sure what the issues are with IE and Chrome though - unfortunately they are probably the most popular browsers for many.

Two You-tube videos embedded within the HTML 5 presentation appeared blank similarly an interactive map with hotspots added. When we switched the document to Flash everything was as normal (we lost a little formatting on one page). We use IE 9 at college. Last night I played the HTML 5 Learning Object within Chrome and it worked fine. Can anyone offer any solutions as we are looking to add an "Induction" Learning Object to our VLE in September to support the student induction programme?

It opens fine on my ipad ditto open my home computer on several browsers so it must be something to do with computer setting at the college I was at.... but unless I can identify what the problem is am going to need to use Flash for demos elsewhere which is not ideal.

Ours went black and we were unable to navigate past this page. It turns out the embedded code we used from YouTube needed cleaning up and we had to change page type to YouTube Video page. I have created a LO in 1.8 but when I toggle to HTML 5 in 2.0 the embedded webpage doesn?t display correctly (only header section visible), which reminds me I need to play with that LO today. Good luck with the embedded page, hope you get it sorted.

When we switched the document to Flash everything was as normal (we lost a little formatting on one page). We use IE 9 at college.

Opera 12.1.5 Every page works well - videos, interactivities and everything else. IE v10 Slide 5 (clickable map) didn't work Slide 9 to 14 and slide 24 had voices only - no images or text showing. The videos all worked. Google Chrome Blank white screen - couldn't get anything to show. As I understand it FireFox and Opera are the most standards compliant browsers which might explain why they work so well. Not sure what the issues are with IE and Chrome though - unfortunately they are probably the most popular browsers for many.

Opera 12.1.5 Every page works well - videos, interactivities and everything else. IE v10 Slide 5 (clickable map) didn't work Slide 9 to 14 and slide 24 had voices only - no images or text showing. The videos all worked. Google Chrome Blank white screen - couldn't get anything to show. As I understand it FireFox and Opera are the most standards compliant browsers which might explain why they work so well. Not sure what the issues are with IE and Chrome though - unfortunately they are probably the most popular browsers for many.

Two You-tube videos embedded within the HTML 5 presentation appeared blank similarly an interactive map with hotspots added. When we switched the document to Flash everything was as normal (we lost a little formatting on one page). We use IE 9 at college. Last night I played the HTML 5 Learning Object within Chrome and it worked fine. Can anyone offer any solutions as we are looking to add an "Induction" Learning Object to our VLE in September to support the student induction programme?

Still seems odd though and not what you'd want to tell learners. Generally though I recommend people to use Chrome with XOT because there are some great accessibility plugins like ChromeSpeak for text to speech, Hi Contrast for changing appearance etc. It gives you some of the "in your face" accessibility benefits the Flash version had as well s all the other benefits of being browser based.

Opera 12.1.5 Every page works well - videos, interactivities and everything else. IE v10 Slide 5 (clickable map) didn't work Slide 9 to 14 and slide 24 had voices only - no images or text showing. The videos all worked. Google Chrome Blank white screen - couldn't get anything to show. As I understand it FireFox and Opera are the most standards compliant browsers which might explain why they work so well. Not sure what the issues are with IE and Chrome though - unfortunately they are probably the most popular browsers for many.

Two You-tube videos embedded within the HTML 5 presentation appeared blank similarly an interactive map with hotspots added. When we switched the document to Flash everything was as normal (we lost a little formatting on one page). We use IE 9 at college. Last night I played the HTML 5 Learning Object within Chrome and it worked fine. Can anyone offer any solutions as we are looking to add an "Induction" Learning Object to our VLE in September to support the student induction programme?

It opens fine on my ipad ditto open my home computer on several browsers so it must be something to do with computer setting at the college I was at.... but unless I can identify what the problem is am going to need to use Flash for demos elsewhere which is not ideal.

Ours went black and we were unable to navigate past this page. It turns out the embedded code we used from YouTube needed cleaning up and we had to change page type to YouTube Video page. I have created a LO in 1.8 but when I toggle to HTML 5 in 2.0 the embedded webpage doesn?t display correctly (only header section visible), which reminds me I need to play with that LO today. Good luck with the embedded page, hope you get it sorted.

Still seems odd though and not what you'd want to tell learners. Generally though I recommend people to use Chrome with XOT because there are some great accessibility plugins like ChromeSpeak for text to speech, Hi Contrast for changing appearance etc. It gives you some of the "in your face" accessibility benefits the Flash version had as well s all the other benefits of being browser based.

It opens fine on my ipad ditto open my home computer on several browsers so it must be something to do with computer setting at the college I was at.... but unless I can identify what the problem is am going to need to use Flash for demos elsewhere which is not ideal.

Opera 12.1.5 Every page works well - videos, interactivities and everything else. IE v10 Slide 5 (clickable map) didn't work Slide 9 to 14 and slide 24 had voices only - no images or text showing. The videos all worked. Google Chrome Blank white screen - couldn't get anything to show. As I understand it FireFox and Opera are the most standards compliant browsers which might explain why they work so well. Not sure what the issues are with IE and Chrome though - unfortunately they are probably the most popular browsers for many.

In the example below, clicking the link to the single page ?Moodle Rollover 2013? appears to delete the content of the page. This happened when I had two and three pages in the object and therefore made navigating impossible, the problem has continued when I?ve reverted to a single page document. Is there a fix for this? Can the page to page navigation be disabled when there is only a single page in the LO? http://www.rhul.ac.uk/registry/educational-development/Moodle-Rollover2013/index.html Kind Regards Martin _____________________________________________________________________________ Martin King B.A., M.Sc., A.H.E.A.

Message-ID: <68AC14DCE28315489C60307D34482F78193B611C@AOLNTCMEC31.ad.aol.aoltw.net> I haven't downloaded or used Xerte yet, so please be gentle with me. I am trying to determine if I can even use Xerte in my workflow. I have spent a few hours looking/searching through the wiki and mailing list archives and watching some training videos, and have not found my question addressed. I would like to use Xerte to produce elearning interactions in swf format which I can then import into Adobe Presenter. I might need a single .swf file to import into Presenter, though I'm not 100% sure whether it can reference other files. The interactions I am considering would be fairly simple, with text and images but no sound. They would be a single page so there would be no navigation between pages. For example, something like the tabbed navigator on slide 23 of the toolkit demo at http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/toolkits/play_560 would be great, or the hotspot image on slide 34. I noticed (in a training video) that there are .swf files among the multiple files produced in a zipped export. If you tried to open/run just one of those .swf files would you see a single page of your learning objects? Or would it need some of the other files to even render correctly? If it helps, here are some rules about the requirements for embedding .swf objects into Adobe Presenter: * Don't use _root or absolute movie clip references. Use relative paths in the MovieClip object references, not _root. * The SWF file you want to embed must not attempt to change anything outside its own file. Therefore, the code cannot refer to the following variables: _level#, _global, or stage * Actionscipt 3 is supported, but Actionscript 2 does not work. The bit about relative paths makes me think that it might be possible to import into Presenter a flash file that references other files, as long as the paths are relative, so I might not 100% require that the .swf file be completely stand alone. Does the answer to my question change whether I'm using Online Toolkit vs. Developer's Edition vs. Flex Compiler?

I have tried to use multiple perspectives but have been limited as can only upload videos as flv or wmv file types, so am using YouTube to display videos. I have also considered tabbed navigator, but as far as I am aware that only allows one type of media to be uploaded and my e-tutorial covers multiple media types under on heading. > > > > I would be grateful for any advice on this. > > > > Thank you. > > > > Yours sincerely, > > > > Kathryn > > > > > > > > > > > > Glasgow Caledonian University is a registered Scottish charity, number SC021474 > > > > Winner: Times Higher Education's Widening Participation Initiative of the Year 2009 and Herald Society's Education Initiative of the Year 2009. > > http://www.gcu.ac.uk/newsevents/news/bycategory/theuniversity/1/name,6219,en.html > > > > Winner: Times Higher Education's Outstanding Support for Early Career Researchers of the Year 2010, GCU as a lead with Universities Scotland partners. > > http://www.gcu.ac.uk/newsevents/news/bycategory/theuniversity/1/name,15691,en.html > > > > _______________________________________________ > > Xerte mailing list > > Xerte at lists.nottingham.ac.uk>>>>>>> > > http://lists.nottingham.ac.uk/mailman/listinfo/xerte > > This message and any attachment are intended solely for the addressee and may contain confidential information.

I added an extra nested page type as the first one so that the menu would all be collapsed and I would have a place for instructions... Then in each subpage you simply give it a title for that section and then below type a line for each sub section... Page A Page B Page C Then if you select the text Page A (highlight it) and right click and select Page Link you can wire it up to a particular page... just be careful not to change the code which is produced. Repeat for each page. Obviously it's easier to do this at the end once all your content pages are all created If you are adventurous you can use HTML markup to create ordered (bulleted)or unordered (numbered) lists by wrapping your pages like this
    • Page A
    • Page B
    • Page C
    You should still only hightlight the Page A part and not the whole line
  • Page A
  • before adding the Page Link You can change ul to ol (in both places) above to get an unordered list...

I added an extra nested page type as the first one so that the menu would all be collapsed and I would have a place for instructions... Then in each subpage you simply give it a title for that section and then below type a line for each sub section... Page A Page B Page C Then if you select the text Page A (highlight it) and right click and select Page Link you can wire it up to a particular page... just be careful not to change the code which is produced. Repeat for each page. Obviously it's easier to do this at the end once all your content pages are all created If you are adventurous you can use HTML markup to create ordered (bulleted)or unordered (numbered) lists by wrapping your pages like this
    • Page A
    • Page B
    • Page C
    You should still only hightlight the Page A part and not the whole line
  • Page A
  • before adding the Page Link You can change ul to ol (in both places) above to get an unordered list...

I would like to know if there was a way to display the main headings on the contents page that could be further clicked to reveal associated subheadings, please see attached for further clarification. I have tried to use multiple perspectives but have been limited as can only upload videos as flv or wmv file types, so am using YouTube to display videos. I have also considered tabbed navigator, but as far as I am aware that only allows one type of media to be uploaded and my e-tutorial covers multiple media types under on heading. > > I would be grateful for any advice on this. > > Thank you. > > Yours sincerely, > > Kathryn > > > > > > Glasgow Caledonian University is a registered Scottish charity, number SC021474 > > Winner: Times Higher Education's Widening Participation Initiative of the Year 2009 and Herald Society's Education Initiative of the Year 2009. > http://www.gcu.ac.uk/newsevents/news/bycategory/theuniversity/1/name,6219,en.html > > Winner: Times Higher Education's Outstanding Support for Early Career Researchers of the Year 2010, GCU as a lead with Universities Scotland partners. > http://www.gcu.ac.uk/newsevents/news/bycategory/theuniversity/1/name,15691,en.html > > _______________________________________________ > Xerte mailing list > Xerte at lists.nottingham.ac.uk>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> > http://lists.nottingham.ac.uk/mailman/listinfo/xerte > This message and any attachment are intended solely for the addressee and may contain confidential information.
