Videos not playing in published course. HELP!!
I am working on a course with lots of videos. Originally they were really blurry and so I've been having to use the work around I learned here. //www.screenr.com/NTHH
I published the course last...
Thanks - I think the current issue all depends on whether the user has clicked on an interface item in the course at least once after the course launches and before the video is supposed to play. If the user hasn't clicked on anything, the video will not play until they do. This is probably because of Chrome's new rules about not letting media autoplay without user interaction.
There is supposed to be a play button that automatically displays at the beginning of the module that prevents this issue (by giving the user something to click on), but my guess is that it isn't displaying like it should be.
So, my workaround in the meantime is to always include a "begin" button or some other interaction before a video plays, and to never use the "Always resume" option if there is a video in a course.
I am experiencing the same issue of videos not playing back in Chrome. Thank you SO much for your work around because nothing else worked. Launching the course in IE removed all animation for the course so that didn't work but adding a button at the very beginning of the course where the user had to click worked like a charm! Thank you Will Findlay!
