If an LO author uses the Insert > Media > Video page and browses to and uploads a .flv then when exported that .flv will be part of that export and imported into moodle as part of the scorm import. However if the author uses a link to an online .flv rather than importing then that link will still be just a link when exported as scorm and imported into moodle. If your streaming server doesn't provide links to .flv then perhaps try the embed content page which will take a link or embed code from any content that will play in a normal browser window.

We are about to purchase a server to host our own instance of XERTE.  However, we have a query with regard to video components that are embedded within a XERTE SCORM package.  We want to avoid our academic staff zipping up big videos and then loading them into our Moodle based VLE, so we'd prefer to keep the video content on the XERTE server which will be linked to a streaming video server.  Effectively, when a user exports a package from our XERTE server, they will be exporting a link to the streaming sever even though the user will think they've loaded it into their XERTE package.  Does this make sense?

We are currently finalising hardware and support purchases and this query is pivotal to our strategy.  I'd greatly appreciate your views.

Kind regards
