RecordingsBN Resource Module for Moodle
=======================================
BigBlueButton is an open source web conferencing system that enables universities and colleges to deliver a high-quality learning experience to remote students.

These instructions describe how to install the BigBlueButtonBN Activity Module for Moodle. This module is developed and supported by Blindside Networks, the company that started the BigBlueButton project in 2007.

With the latest version of this plugin you can
- Create resource links to recordings made with BigBlueButton (requires bigbluebuttonbn plugin to be installed)
- Publish/unpublish and delete recordings

Prerequisites
=============
You need:

1. A server running Moodle
2. A BigBlueButton 0.8 (or later) server running on a separate server (not on the same server as your Moodle site)
3. BigBlueButtonBN installed

Note that on previous versions of Moodle you will need to use the specific version of this plugin.

- For Moodle 1.9 use version 1.0.9 (2013071001).
