Video to be played when clicked rather than downloading in V3.1

I am testing Moodle to be used in Middle schools in underprivileged area. The goal here is to display video, audio or in general media files and documents when selected rather than downloading it in classrooms.

I have modified php.ini to increase file size:

post_max_size = 600M

upload_max_filesize = 600M

Max_execusion_time = 500

max_input_time = 500

memory_limit = 500M

There are only  8 - 16 classrooms and this will be on LAN. One server and each classroom will have a client.


Given this setup / requirement. I still see that it download media file rather than playing.

Is someone for the forum help? I goole on forcedownload. I don't see this in configuration or setup.
