[Xerte] Re: problem loading FLV file on video template page in XOT - a bit urgent!

What info do you need for that? My Pale Purple account info? Or an exported zip file of the content? Sadly, as mentioned earlier, I am having trouble exporting a zip! Will try again though if needed.

Sorry about this. Again, would it be a pale purple host issue? Or more local than that? Just strange that two comps are having this issue and we are both logging in to pale purple for our xot.

Thanks Nigel and Julian for trying out the flv.

Just to say that I have tried the flv file in my installation of XOT and it works perfectly well.

Add a graphic page and put up a .jpg with the same name/path.

Appear?

Thanks for the suggestion - just tried and no joy - Julian said the flv file with original name worked fine on his xot install.

So, a problem at our host's end (Pale Purple)? Can't be just my comp since my coworker has same prob on her comp.

First I'd remove spaces from the file name and set both the filename and the path value to all lower case.
If the file is there then the server can't see it.

well, this is what I get - see screenshot attachment - I can see the flv does physically upload but just will not display when click play.

Does the media folder show that the .flv is there on the server?

Hi,

I created a new learning object for XOT with just a video page - and same result. My colleague has the same problem. Could it be that the Pale Purple XOT install is corrupted in terms of the Media: video page?

It works here: must be some other problem. Create a simple LO and add just a video page, and try it again...

Hi,

I have attached the flv file I am trying to load into a video page type. Unfortunately I am unable to try the video page template in a standalone copy of xerte since I am having trouble exporting the file as a zip - sorry. Am using pale purple as the host.

Thanks for your quick attention to this.

Does it work in a simple example in xerte standalone?

Can you provide a link to the flv so we can try it?

Hi good xerte folk,

I have been having problems with flv files. I convert to flv. and upload to xerte online templates (video template page) but I am just greeted by a blank screen when I hit play to display the work. Any ideas why I might be getting such a blank page? Video frame size in conversion program is 320 by 240 and bit rate is 512 using 'any video converter', a piece of free software which has worked for me in the past.

cheers

Andy
