I would like to give users the possibillity to save embedded videos local.
One way is to use trigger jump to url/file. But then the video exist two times one at story_content/ (crypted name) and one at story_content/external_files/ (real name).
I'm looking for a way to download embedded video by e.g. right click on video.
Why don't you put the video on a streaming server (SharePoint or Google Drive perhaps), then rather than embed the video in the course, show the video stream within a web object? You could also then include a link to the download on the same page.
Of course, that would only work if you were online while viewing the course...
That is the problen in my enviroment. Some user should be enabled to run the program offline, so I would like to decrease the amount of data for the offline version.
Kai, I think I figured out a way to do this, but you will have to put the download link inside of a web object. You will also have to test within your specific environment. Take a look at the attached project file and let me know if that accomplishes what you're trying to do.

Instead of putting the video on screen, why don't you simply direct all users to view the video from the resources tab?
