[1.1.0] - 2025-02-15

https://mod-interactive-video.canny.io/changelog/interactive-video-v11

[1.0.3] - 2025-01-25

Fixed

• Player didn't fire ivplayerReady event if the browser blocked autoplay.
• Share-moment link included embed=1 if the link was created from the modal.
• onPaused method was not implemented on beforeunload event, resulting in the watched time not being saved.

Updated

• Spotify player sometimes shows the preview version of the music tracks depending on the browser and user login. In this case, the interactions might be cut off. So, when the player is in preview mode, users will now get an error message before the player is destroyed.
• Kill all client-side background processes and event listener if the video is invisible and paused for 30 minutes on view page and 10 minutes on interactions page. If the video already ends, the processes will be killed after 5 minutes of inactivity.
• Get processed data from server only once for each interaction. Processed data will be saved to this.cache object with the annotation id. When the interaction is relaunched in the same session, the cached version will be used; therefore, releasing some burden from the server. This applies to view page only. One interaction page, a new data is fetched everytime the interaction is launched.
• Notify user if the browser blocks autoplay and encourage them to allow it on the current site.
• Kill the interactive video if on Brave browser with autoplay blocked. (We'll re-enable it in the future when Brave browser stops overly blocking the play method.)
• Improve ability for other plugins to extend the mod_form and completion conditions/states, and more importantly, make sure removing or disabling the related plugins does not caused any completion issues.
• Improve accuracy in calculting the time spent on interaction. For instance, resume counting when interaction is relaunched and pause counting when interaction is no longer active (e.g. activity closed or video playing).
• Right-click on timestamp on the interaction list to quick-edit the interaction's timestamp. Right-click on the input to set value to the current time.
• Minor accessiblity/UI/UX improvements

Added

• Two url parameters to control the player appearance: dm for dark mode and df for distraction-free mode. Example: https://yourmoodlesite.com/mod/interactivevideo/view.php?id=1&dm=1&df=1;
• Allow extension plugins to include js methods on the mod_form. To enable this, the plugin must add an element on the mod_form with the class '.requirejs' and the data attribute data-plugin value as the amd module name. Example: <div class="requirejs" data-plugin="local_ivanalytics/main"></div>. The plugin must implement the method mform to add the required js code.
• convertHMSToSeconds in the base class to convert HH:MM:SS/MM:SS/SS to seconds.
• Ability to lock the top navigation when watching the video on a modal on the course page.
• checkautoplay to pre-check if the browser allows autoplay video on mute. Use player.allowAutoplay to check.
• New events: interactionrefresh (after the refresh button is clicked), iv:autoplayBlocked (as soon as the player method load runs.)
• active class to #message element of the current/visible interaction.

[1.0.1] - 2025-01-14
