[Xerte] Re: Codec for .flv

[Pat Lockley]

Hello,

If you go to the media and properties window for the learning object
in question, then look for the flv in question.

If you click on it then the full URL for the flv will appear in the textbox.

Copy and paste that into a new browser window.

What happens?

Pat
