[Xerte] Re: installing Xerte

[Pat @ Pgogy]

Hi Sarah,

I think the techdis sandpit is version 1.7, whereas the most up to date version is 1.9. The main difference is that 1.9 has support for html5 playback and a few bug fixes.

If you run XOT locally then it depends on how local it is. If you run using Maxos or via localhost / xampp then the install tends to be for one user - and so the sharing features are available, but you've no one to share with so they are somewhat spurious.

On some networks a local pc install can be accessed from other pcs so sharing might work

Hope the helps

Pat
