JW Player multimedia filter 7-0.4 for Moodle 2.9-3.0 (JW Player 7, CDN 7.2.2)

Moodle 2.9, 3.0
Released: серада, 2 снежня 2015, 12:42 Ранку

This is the first release after versioning change, prefix 7 indicates that plugin is designed to work with JW Player 7 (for JW6 plugin see release 6-0.4).

This release introduces lots of changes to support JW 7 and contains upgraded JS code that uses Asynchronous Module Definition (AMD) API (new in Moodle 2.9). In addition to that, some new features have been added to plugin (thanks to @owenbarritt), needless to say that JW7 itself is brining new functionality and makes some formerly premium features free. Upgrade is possible from any earlier version of plugin; however, the minimum requirement is now Moodle 2.9 (due to AMD). Also, make sure you have JW 7 license, especially if you used any paid edition of JW 6 before (it does not work with JW6 license key). See upgrade manual for more details.

  • Fix recognition of file extensions for urls with query strings (#35, @owenbarritt),
