Content is videos, images, presentations, and text documents – among others – which can be used in training sessions and classes.
Content may be:
The types of content that can be registered are:
videos (with wmv1, avi and mp42 extensions, or YouTube, Vimeo and Kaltura videos registered from their URL);
1 → Currently the vwm extension is only supported by Internet Explorer. As of Google Chrome version 45 and Mozilla Firefox version 55, the NPAPI plugin that generates that view was inactivated. 2 → Except for encoded mp4 files in H.263, XVID or Divx formats. |
Only content with the extensions GIF, JPG, JPEG, BMP, PNG, WMV1, AVI1, MP41, MP3, TXT and PDF and SCORM content can be viewed in the internal viewer. All other contents are downloaded when viewed. 1 → These extensions have some limitations. More details in “Which video formats are supported as content?” and “Why is content with AVI extension not shown in the Chrome and Firefox browsers?” |
SCORM 1.2 refers to a compressed file that must contain an XML file named “imsmanifest.xml” in its root directory, known as the “manifest” file. The “manifest” file contains all information required for content presentation. The manifest divides the training or content into one or more SCORMs.
SCORMs can be combined in a tree structure that represents the content or training, known as activity tree. The “manifest” contains a structure, in the XML file, representing the activity tree, as well as information on how to launch each SCORM and, optionally, metadata describing the training or the content and its parts.
