Disabling video scrubbing but still allow pausing of video
Hi, I am creating a number of modules with very long videos (~30 mins). We would like to have the video controls to enable the user to pause/play but we don't want them to scrub the playbar until they have completed the video.
Can someone please help me figure out how this can be achieved. Thank you
Hello Andy, once the video has been inserted into the slide, select the video and click options,
Change the options as per the screenshot:
With the above options enabled, you can have the ability to play/pause the video by clicking on the video.
Hi, Sandeep, thanks for your response. I actually wanted play/pause control as is a bit more intuitive for the users, also would still like them to view the video after and scrub around.
I managed to find a fix which I am still implementing, I added a box at 100% transparency over the scrub bar. Below is work in progress enabling me to still click at the end to test. I also added a layer with an error message to say scrub bar is not enabled yet until watched all way through. This can then be removed when media completes.
Hopefully this will work ok for me but anyone let me know if i'm missing something that will bite me later :)
Hello Andy, yes you can fulfill your requirement by implementing this procedure.
Good luck!!
