Resume saved state and Vimeo

Hi, Mauro -- Thanks for reaching out here! My apologies if I am not totally clear on what you need, but perhaps you might want to check out the following discussions in case any of the suggestions offered will work for you?

• Resume Saved State on Slides With Video
• Resume state on a slide that only has a video on it
• Resume Video or Layer 

Hi Mauro!  I just wanted to chime in, too....if this is what you mean--currently, there isn't a way to bookmark a video so that it will pick up where you left off in Storyline.  Our resume behavior allows somebody to return to the slide where they exited.  An alternative might be to break up your video into a few slides, depending on how long it is-- a little bit of a workaround that will at least get your learners close to where they stopped in the video.

We can't offer too much advice on JavaScript, but perhaps some other community members can weigh in with thoughts!

Thanks for your reply Christie and Crystal! I've already checked those topics you suggest since I've been experimenting for a long time with video.

I was wondering if there's a way to use the suspend_data variable, in order to interface with vimeo's embedding code and get the video started from a specific time when the scorm is resumed.

maybe through a javascript but I know nothing about it...

Thanks for your reply, Mauro, and unfortunately I am not aware of a method to suggest for what you have in mind, but perhaps your fellow community members will have some additional ideas to assist! 

I've found this interesting post:

Can anyone help me in finding how to extract time information?

Hi, Mauro -- Thanks for reaching out, and as all LMS providers and the services and information they can provide are unique, you may want to share the name of your LMS here so that other who might use the same service are able to chime in with their ideas and suggestions. Also, may I ask if you have contacted your LMS directly as well for their insights on how to gather time-related information?

Hi Chrisitie and thank you for your answer.

I'm using Moodle. Actually I haven't contacted Moodle's community yet, I thought that's something to manage withing Storyline. Thanks for the advice.

Did you get any solution to this ?

I am also trying to achieve the same thing in SL2.

Hello Saif and welcome to E-Learning Heroes!

I do not have an update to provide on the status of what Mauro shared above. If you do not hear back from the user soon, you are welcome to reach out to the user directly via the 'Contact Me' option on the user profile.

Not sure if this addresses your problem exactly, but it might help somebody searching on this in the future. In Articulate 360, I  made a 'start video' button which triggered a layer where the video played. I set the base slide to 'resumed saved state' and set the next button as disabled but added a trigger that changed the next button's state to normal if the start video button was in it's visited state. So when the learner clicks back on the slide, the next button is available for them to skip forward and the play button shows them they've watched the video. So far, it works well.

Hey Michelle! 

Thanks for chiming in and sharing your solution with the community. 

That could certainly help others that find this conversation in the future.

Hi Michelle,

thank you for your solution! May I ask a follow up, what if you wanted to allow the user to replay the video if they chose to go back to the base slide?

Hi Jeni and welcome to E-Learning Heroes :)

I cannot speak for Michelle, but I assume that she has a trigger on that play button to show the layer when the user clicks, so it should work for replaying as well.

Let us know if you have any additional questions.
