I have created a hotpoint activity that has streaming video. It works fine on a webserver but when I install it in moodle the video won't show. The hp file links to a jpg image, an swf video player, an xml file which, in turn, links to the flv streaming file. I have all the files in the same folder within moodle.
What I get is the hp generated file with the image and the video player but no streaming.
Is theor any history with this porblem?

Hi Gerry,
this is probably a problem with relative URLs. These need to be converted to absolute paths in order to work in Moodle. The HotPot module attempts to identify and convert all relative URLs in a quiz, but it seems not to have done this on your quiz.
You can test this hypothesis for yourself by inserting absolute paths in the quiz and seeing if it works then.
If you could send me a copy of the quiz and related files, I would be happy to investigate.
kind regards
Gordon
