<div class="WordSection1">
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#244061">I’ve been experimenting with toolkits, and a learning object with ‘menu with page controls’ navigation enabled. On my menu page, I’ve added the optional menu page image property. Rather than just use a boring
image, I’ve attempted to insert a swf – which itself plays a FLV video (from our streaming server) and also has its own player controls (linked from the Xerte media files).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#244061"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#244061">You can view the LO here: <a href="http://elearning.net.marjon.ac.uk/rlo/play.php?template_id=334">

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#244061"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#244061">Hopefully you’ll see that the swf video loads fine, and can be controlled by the user with the control buttons. Everything fine so far…<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#244061"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#244061"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#244061">Now click the menu button for ‘<u>Inserting Page Breaks: Part 1’</u> – which loads the modified youtube page type that Julian worked on last week. This works fine also.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#244061"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#244061">However, now for the interesting behaviour…while on the youtube page - use the
<u>contents</u> button from the top menu to return to the main menu, and you should see that Xerte loads several instances of my original swf video and breaks:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#244061"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-GB"><img border="0" width="530" height="425" id="Picture_x0020_1" src="cid:image002.jpg@01CC2A6D.AC6F29F0"></span><span style="color:#244061"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#244061"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#244061">This doesn’t happen if you use the previous/next buttons – it only seems to replicate when directly jumping between the YT page and main menu.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#244061"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#244061">Any ideas how I could stop this? Let me know if you want me to share the swf and LO.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
