Resume video after exiting course

Steve - I want to thank you for sharing your solution here.  I was able to implement it using a Moodle LMS and it's working as expected.

And Leslie, thank you for laying out the three scenarios and how they tie together.

While this solution works perfectly as explained, from a user perspective it is somewhat cumbersome.  The published file should be able to remember where in the video the person left off, without them having to click a button to "save" their progress.  By using Steve's solution we are left without being able to display the time left in a video because if the user pauses with the video controls and closes the window, the video will start at the beginning when they launch the course again.

I don't understand why from Leslie's answer that this is the expected behavior.  You would think that if you exit a course on a slide with the video playing that it would resume right where you left off.

"1. Exiting a course on a slide with a video playing and resuming on the same slide, will reset the video. This is the expected behavior."

I think a good user experience would be:

• Launch a course with the video that can start automatically or be started based on user action
• If they are unable to complete the video in one sitting, close the course and have it remember where they left off.
• Allow the video controls so that the time remaining is shown.
• Worse case scenario, force the user to click the pause button before closing the course, but still keep track of where they are in the video.

There are video SCORM wrappers advertised online that have the functionality to remember where a user left off without the need for them to visit a different slide, I would love to see similar functionality from such a robust tool like Storyline 360.
