Playing media files from local server
December 20, 2007 12:00 AM
Hello, we are recently in the process of purchasing LEctora, in the meantime I have downloaded the trial version to play around with. There is only one concern we have. First of all, we currently use trainersoft to publish our e-learning modules and because of bandwith issues we use trainersoft as a wraper for our media file, for example for a flash movie so that trainersoft pulls the media from a local server instead of embedding the actual flash file into trainersoft. So, that be said I wanted to know if anyone knows how to do this work around with lectora. Because of our bandwith issue,we can't play flash files directly from lectora, we want to have the capability to have lectora call a flash file froma local server versus us embedding the flash file in Lectora. Can anyone help me on how I can do this using lectora. I attempted to do it but I can't see to get it to work. I add an Action, animation and it actually puts my flash movie in lectora I don't want it to be copied into Lectora, we can't have flash movie going across our WAN because of low bandwith, so this is the reason we have all our media files in a local server. Thank you for any help or instructions anyone can provide. Hello, we are recently in the process of purchasing LEctora, in the meantime I have downloaded the trial version to play around with.
