resume video after closing in web application

Nov 26, 2012

I'm building a LMS(asp.net C# web application) ,the lectures are generated by articulate suite 09.

besides,there's a picture of the lecture below.

now I'm trying to do this:

assume the video has a total time of 50:27,a student is watching this lecture,

and at 30:17,he closed the lecture's window.

the next day or some other time he watches this lecture again,whether we can start to play this lecture at 30:17

can we do this?

If can,I will try it out,until success

if can't,why? I need a reply to my client.

Hi Binary Worms, 

It's not currently possible to bookmark a resume point within a video. However, if you were able to break the video up into smaller pieces, say 10 minutes per slide, then you could have your users resume the course based on which slide they were on when they left the course. Not sure how'd you'd be able to do this with a presenter panel video though, if that's what you're referring to...

Hey, Anderson

that's pretty nice of you telling me this,that helped,but I still want a more detail information

I have uploaded two pictures in the previous reply

the first pic is my LMS:

    Part A:there are two links in Part A,these are the links to two diffrent scos(in the second picture,the part C you can see two chapters) the first link ,links to chapter one;the second link links to chapter two.

    Part B:that are several links(links in flash,not the html hyperlink)too,these are several sections of chapter one,that matches the second picture,Part D.over there you can see several flv videos,these are sections of chapter one.

the second is my lecture Directory:

   Part C,shows I have two chapters in this lecture.

   Part D,shows chapter one has 14 sections.

and here is my question:

now,I can resume the video,to which chapter,you know,the Part A and Part C are where I'm talking

but can I resume the video,to the sections?the Part B and Part D are where I'm talkig

(if you are not clear about what I'm talking about,here are more details:

  assume I am a student,I am watching the lecture,and I 'm watching the chapter two,and no matter which section of chapter two I am reading,at this time I close the window.the next time I open this lecture.the lecture will play at the very beginning of chapter two

)

can I do what I want?

if can,it's best to have some informations help to do this

if can't,I nee explain to my client,so why?
