The FastPix Video activity plugin (mod_fastpix) adds a FastPix Video activity type to Moodle. Teachers upload a video — or pull one from a URL — directly from a course, set a completion threshold based on how much a student has watched, and let Moodle write the grade automatically. mod_fastpix is a consumer plugin that builds onlocal_fastpix, the foundation plugin that owns FastPix credentials and all FastPix communication. Install local_fastpix first.
Video authoring
- Drag-and-drop uploads with a live progress bar that survives an unreliable connection.
- Optional pull-from-URL ingestion, with SSRF protection from the foundation plugin.
Playback experience
- Modern adaptive player that works across browsers, mobile, and slow networks.
- Watch progress saves every 10 seconds and on tab close, so reopening the video on any device picks up where the student left off.
- Optional captions on by default; optional Disable seeking for compliance and assessment videos.
Completion and grading
- Completion is based on watch coverage, not playhead position. The default threshold is 90%.
- The grade is written once, at the maximum, through Moodle's standard grade API when the student crosses the threshold.
Watch tracking and fraud prevention
- Six server-side checks run on every progress callback, covering timeline tampering, simulated playback, and capability loss.
- Failed checks increment a per-attempt counter and surface a badge on the gradebook attempt without silently blocking the student.
Backup, restore, and privacy
- Full support for Moodle's standard course backup and restore, including per-user attempt rows.
- Full Moodle Privacy API support, including per-user export and deletion under GDPR.
