Trouble is, the code is not relative to my own directory structures I use in Moodle, plus, I think that if it is in the root directory (The public_html folder), then it is not secure against copying. So I thought, why not use the code the page generated and paste it into a PAGE resource in moodle. The tool converted my mp4 file to webM, M4V, and some Javascript, as well as som eother odd html5 files in a folder. I tried using the tool, and created a test html5 code snippet. Can I continue making everything in MP4, should I convert to something else, and if so, how should I embed them in my assignments so they will play on any platform? So, what would be your advice if you were in my shoes? Personally I want to keep up with the latest technology, and would be happy to use anything that would make it easier to get higher quality video and not have these browser issues. I use the Poodl plugin in moodle for all my video handling. I have no problem with using Firefox, in fact, I would welcome it, except for the playback problem. It alarmed me because I am concerned that Chrome will stop playing my MP4's. I had never seen it before in JAVA updates. Yesterday I got the usual notice that JAVA needed an update, so I updated it, and then I got the notice I included in my original post. ![]() It would wait and progressively download video, then it would show a black frame, play the audio, but the video was missing in the frame. When I set up my pages, I found that there were many glitches with Firefox, specifically that it would not play MP4 video that I embedded in pages. Our school district allows two of them - Chrome and Firefox. Since I teach in a blended classroom, I can dictate which browser the students must use. Additionally, I make videos using a camera and then convert them to MP4. I chose to make a lot of my instructional videos for moodle using Screencast-O-Matic, and converting to MP4. I guess I should have been more specific. Will this change cause my videos to stop working in Chrome? MY latest attempt to play video in Firefox is still not working, but Chrome still does. As of April 2015, starting with Chrome Version 42, Google has added an additional step to configuring NPAPI based plugins like Java to run - see the section Enabling NPAPI in Chrome Version 42 and laterbelow."Īlthough I like Firefox, inthe past I have told my students to use Chrome because video plays correctly in Chrome, but not Firefox.īut with this statement, I am concerned about Chrome now. ![]() Instead, we recommend Firefox, Internet Explorer and Safari as longer-term options. As it is unclear if these dates will be further extended or not, we strongly recommend Java users consider alternatives to Chrome as soon as possible. Recently, Google has revised their plans and now state that they plan to completely remove NPAPI by late 2015. Google announced in September 2013 plans to remove NPAPI support from Chrome by "the end of 2014", thus effectively dropping support for Silverlight, Java, Facebook Video and other similar NPAPI based plugins. The Java plug-in for web browsers relies on the cross platform plugin architecture NPAPI, which has long been, and currently is, supported by all major web browsers. I just read this when installing the latest Java:
