Hello there. I am really tired tonight so I apologise if this is an obvious query or if I have missed something because I haven't done a proper search first. I also hope I have the right forum as although the problem appears in the Lesson module, it relates to videos.

A colleague has Moodle 2.0.6 They embedded a Mpg video into a true/false question type page in a Lesson. The big Q comes up and then it plays fine. When the student clicks a response button and gets taken to the next page, the video player appears twice. I have tried this in Chrome and Firefox and it appears twice, one under the other, just above the "your answer" section. I haven't yet tried in Internet Explorer. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

I had forgotten I asked this but my colleague reminded me today to see if I had found an answer - and I hadn't - so I am "upping" this in the hope someone might have an idea!

As a work around how about embedding the video from  outside Moodle. I use Photobucket because they have a wonderful choice of code options to copy and paste into your lesson. The thumbnail is just brillant as it saves viewing realestate. Dont move the or upset the placement online otherwise you will loose the link.

just an idea

Hi there. Unfortunately it's not my choice - the colleague has a server where they are obliged to host their videos so they can't upload them to anywhere else online. Still haven't solved the problem though..gemischt

What file format are you using? I had this problem with .flv files and sorted it out by converting them to .mp4.
