Is there a way (a plugin?) to track video play/viewed history or reports?

Hello, I am new to this.  Our team had a request want to insert/upload some videos to some courses.

They want to check who has been viewed/watched the video.  Is there a way to do this?

I checked the log, I can see who viewed a module in the course but not seeing who has been watched the video.


Thanks in advance.

Hi Jason,

The short answer is, no, there is no way to check and guarantee who watched a video.

You can place the video in a Lesson, and check to see if they spent enough time to have watched it, but who knows if they didn't just start the video, walk away and come back when it finished. If you also ask questions about the video content, you can check to see if they may have watched, but again, maybe they just got the answers from someone else who did watch.

Thatss how i would do it :0) exactly how Al suggested.

This would allow you to confirm video watched and understood for content via questions with a grade.
