Android Help! Articulate HTML5 VODs don't size correctly on android internal web browser

Feb 29, 2016

Hi -

Please help!

Storyline articulate html5 files will not play on the web browser internal to android app (WebView and WebViewClient).

The video opens but it doesn't size correctly on the screen. The video plays.

When we hit "back" the video continues to play in the background and we can't find it to stop it from playing.

If sized to fit the screen, we then can't see the video but we can hear it.

note: VOD plays correctly on iOS and in a computer browser.

Hi - I work with Kim - I wrote a smallest Android example program and I still see the size issue as above in Kim's image attachment - has anyone written an android program with an Android internal WebView and correctly displayed storyline files?

Here is all I added to an empty Android example program:

mWebView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.activity_main_webview);
mWebView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
mWebView.getSettings().setDomStorageEnabled(true);
mWebView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient());
mWebView.loadUrl("http://demos.articulate.com/showcase/AccidentInvestigation/story.html");

Attached is what I see using Articulate's demo storyline with http://demos.articulate.com/showcase/AccidentInvestigation/story.html
