Poodll Filter 2.3.7 (Build 2012100100)

Moodle 2.1, 2.2, 2.3
Released: Monday, 1 October 2012, 3:04 PM

Changes in this version: 2012100100
=============================

Flowplayer
-Changed the way the flowplayer video and audio player was embedded on the page. Provided option in filter settings to select the embedding method.
This will fix some weirdness that people had where players didn't play, endlessly played or resized themselves. The default is to use the SWF Object embedding method which works the best for the most people. The other option you might use is Flowplayer JS. If you use this, it might pay to tell the multimedia plugins filter to ignore the file expensions that you handle with PoodLL (mp3,mp4,flv by default). Otherwise conflicts can occur. In Moodle 2.3 this can be done at:
Site Administration -> Appearance -> Media Embedding

In Moodle 2.1/2.2 you can do this at:
Site Administration -> Plugins -> Filters -> MultiMedia Plugins settings.

PoodLL Data Directory

Added a PoodLL Data Directory feature. This allows you to specify a web accessible directory from which to store and access media files and other resources. This is mostly useful for some of the older widgets from Moodle 1.9 days, that some people want to use. These include the talkback widget, small video gallery, big video gallery,audio list players and flashcards. Set the directory in the poodll filter settings page. It expects the name of a folder directly under the moodle root folder.

Widgets

Added / reenabled a few new widgets. These include talkback, the video galleries, screen subscribe and cambroadcaster widgets
