Moodle app SCORM player

Technical Details

The Moodle Mobile SCORM player allows to play SCORM 1.2 packages, it comes with some features and limitations:

Support only for SCORM 1.2 packages
Support for objectives, interactions and pre-requisites
Support for SCO navigation via nav.event
Support only for uploaded packages, remote zip packages and zip packages in any type of repository supported by Moodle
Does not support remote imsmanifest.xml packages or file system repository unzipped SCORMS
Does not support opening packages outside the app (in a complete new browser for example)
Does not support javascript popups via window.open (Mobile device limitation)
When the user loses connectivity, the offline mode is enabled and the attempt is converted to an offline attempt.
When an offline attempt is synchronised back to the live Moodle site, we attempt to merge it in with any incomplete attempts on the site, otherwise it is saved as a new attempt.

Considerations when creating a SCORM package for offline usage:

Don’t use flash or flv components
Don’t use remotely included images, files, or media
Don’t use popups
Try to reduce the size of the images and use mobile compatible formats e.g. png
Try to reduce the size of videos and use mobile compatible formats e.g. mp4
Don’t use advanced HTML5 features, maybe is not supported by old devices (iOs4, Android < 4.4)
Having a left navigation menu as part of the scorm will reduce the overall size that the scorm is displayed, so not having this feature within the player will produce a larger display on small devices.
