[Xerte-dev] Re: YouTube video page via HTML 5 - issue with related content turned off

[Smith, John]

Hi,

Looking at it now... it seems on page 2 of Ron's LO the iframe URL is http://www.youtube.com/embed/http://www.youtube.com/embed/?wmode=opaque<http://www.youtube.com/embed/http:/www.youtube.com/embed/?wmode=opaque> so the function that build the URL is not doing it properly... my bad I'll get it fixed asap...

Wonder if it's just that querystring or any at all?

Subject: [Xerte-dev] YouTube video page via HTML 5 - issue with related content turned off
Hi all
I noticed an issue recently but didn't have time to test properly until now and I have checked the HTML 5 code yet but thought I'd mention it in case it's already a known issue...

That old joke about on YouTube never being more than a couple of clicks away from a dog on a skateboard or something far more undesirable, especially in a classroom, means that it's often preferable to un-tick the box that shows related content when the video finishes. For instance at the end of the Nottingham Xerte Online Toolkits video the following thumbnails and links show:

Nothing too bad there but you get the point.

Anyway what I've noticed is that with HTML 5 playback with the related videos turned off which adds ?rel=0 to the end of the link in the embed code the video doesn't show and gives a message that the video can't be displayed in a frame

It plays vine via the Flash player e.g. http://mitchellmedia.co.uk/xot/play_47

So is this just some kind of string manipulation difference in the xerte models or something else? I can have a look but I think you built the html 5 YouTube models John so have you noticed this?

Cheers
Ron
