Player Bar is Disabled in Camtasia File When Hosted in Moodle.

A few years back my project was creating Camtasia presentations and hosting them in Moodle 2.1.2. When these presentations were posted, the user had the ability to drag the playbar to any location in the video.

We have returned to using Camtasia again, and I"m running into an issue once the Camtasia file has been hosted as a File (Resource) in Moodle. The published Camtasia HTML or MP4 files have playbars that can be moved, but that is only outside of Moodle. Once I load the file into Moodle, the play bar that accompanies the video when it pops up has a playbar that can not be moved.

Why does the original published file have a moveable playbar, but once the same file is published and played in Moodle, the playbar disappears?

Here is a picture of the error message that displays where the full time of the video should be.

The video time reads: 00:11 / Infinity:0NaN instead of the actual video time.

Closing out the video pop sometimes causes the total video time to display correctly, and the user is able to navigate around various parts of the video using the play bar.

Why is this error message appearing, and is there a Moodle video buffer that is culprit?
