Hi, 

I need to explore the suspend_data generated by the scorm 1.2 package. It's not human-readable. How does moodle read/decompress it?

Thanks

HI Nathan,
the LMS, here Moodle, does not have any responsibility with that value, but storing it according to the SCORM RTE specs: only the content, the writer, can read it.

HTH,
Matteo

Thanks. That was useful to know.

One more question. 

I believe my course is exceeding the Scorm 1.2 data limit. I know moodle has a checkbox in plugins->scorm to change how it handles that limit, however I noticed it too late after the fact.

Does moodle log errors when receiving suspend_data that is too large? If so, where would those errors be logged? I'm guessing the php error logs which for me, defaults to the apache error logs, if moodle error logging is turned on.
