I have been able to import two slides and a Quicktime movie. In Firefox I could not ad the time, since the time-reader was not aligning with the Quicktime. But I was able to do that in IE.

But then, when I play the Video, nothing seems to happen with the slides. And when I select the slides, the Video doesn't follow either...

What am I missing?

This is the most interesting plugin I have installed and look forward to get it to work!

Thanks, Omid.

Do any of my answers in

http://autoview.autotrain.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=14

help ?

I gain the distinct impression that Apple recently changed something because code which used to work has now stopped working and i've got a similar issue with our legacy AutoView 2 platform. (The moodle mod uses AutoView 3).

Thanks Tim!

I've imported a Flash movie and my Syncronization is now running! I'm encountering another problem though: when I import the jpgs (selecting Image and Jpeg) the images don't load. It seems that they create a wrong address, with two \'s instead of one (i.ex.: \\picture.jpg instead of \picture.jpg).

Do you know anything about that?

Thanks!!

Omid.

Images need special handling, you have to have a complete set with versions in several different resolutions with the correct file names all collected together in a single directory. The slide source URL is actually this directory, unfortunatly Moodle dosn't allow directory selections from it's file browser, so the source window is set up to allow you to select anything from within the relevant directory and then trim the source url down.

If you read the 'How to use this module' page there is a brief description of how you setup slide sources using images, including the required resolutions and filenames.
