Media Capture
This is a Moodle repository plugin to record audio/video content using the filepicker. The plugin currently comes with 3 recorders built in viz Nanogong (Java Audio recorder), Red5Recorder (Flash Red5 Video recorder) and Flash Audio Recorder.
The plugin automatically selects the appropriate recorder to display according to client configurations in the Auto detect mode. In the manual mode you can select from a list of available compatible recorders.
For installation instructions please read : https://github.com/ankitdbst/moodle-repository_mediacapture
Please note in order to get red5recorder running you need to have your own red5 server (v0.9.1, the recorder is not supported on higher versions of red5) running.
Download red5 from the following trunk : http://www.red5.org/downloads/red5/0_9/
If you have that set-up already, you simply need to :
1. Copy red5recorder-app within recorders/red5recorder/assets/ to your {RED5_HOME}/webapps/
2. Rename red5recorder-app to red5recorder
3. Restart red5
4. Specify the IP for red5 in the plugin settings.
If you are looking to add to the list of recorders installed (inside mediacapture) please follow the documentation http://docs.moodle.org/dev/Mediacapture_plugin_recorders
@Martin : I have renamed the labels to Record Audio/Video. You are not required to complete Red5 steps if you don't activate the Red5 recorder in admin settings.
I record audio using Flash Capture, and it plays back OK in recording window. I then upload the file, if I then download the MP3 file I can play it in Media Player. If I then view it as a file resource the play bar appears in my browser window, but clicking play only plays a few seconds before audio cuts out. (e.g. 5sec of a 30sec file) I can jump forward in the file and it will play audio where I jump ahead for another 1 or 2 seconds and then cut out again.
p.s. Could you please enable Issues on your GitHub repo as it is much easier to follow bugs than on this forum. Thanks James
Thanks very much for this plugin. I love the audio so far and am keen to get the video one working.
If I enable the flash video for video recording, can I enable the system so that it records using the local built in camera (on macbooks or mac airs)?
Thanks
Thanks for trying out the plugin.
The flash video recorder requires Red5 server to be installed, apart from that it should work fine with your builtin camera. I do not have access to Mac so I cannot say for sure. But I can assist in case you encounter a problem.
Thanks
Thanks in advance,
