• Video is a very powerful tool to use in a Moodle course, allowing students, for example to catch up on lectures they missed, learn from a "how to" screencast, or improve their language skills by watching native speakers interact.

Donde alojar los videos

• Whenever possible, it is preferable to upload your videos to Moodle, storing them on your own server as you retain ultimate control. However, when server space or upload limits are restricted, it is convenient to upload videos to an online site like youtube [1] or Vimeo[2]. They can easily be embedded inside Moodle from such sites and privacy can still be maintained if you choose their private video sharing option.

Alojamiento de videos cruzando dominios

Flash video players require permission to play videos hosted on a different URL, e.g. yourmoodle.org needs permission to play video files hosted at yourvideo.org. The permission files are stored on the root domain of where the video files are hosted, e.g. yourvideos.org/crossdomain.xml. If yourvideos.org does not have a cross domain policy file that permits yourmoodle.org to play videos, Flash Player will not permit it. Further details are available here [3].

Many public video hosting services, such as YouTube.com, already have catch-all cross domain policy files in place and so videos can be played from them via your Moodle without any cross domain security issues arising.

Maneras de mostrar los videos

Enlazar a un video en línea alojado en otro sitio

• If your video is hosted elsewhere online (such as youtube) you can simply link to the relevant page by choosing Add a resource>URL and pasting in the relevant link.
• For more information, see URL
• Note that, in an establishment where certain video sharing sites might be banned, your students might not be able to access your video through Moodle.

Subir un video, para que los estudiantes lo descarguen

• Choose this option if you wish to upload your video to Moodle and give users the option to download it to their own computers.
• Choose Add a resource>File
• For more information, see File
• Note that the way the video will display depends on the software the user has on their own computer. This could mean that some students might be unable to view your video. (See this discussion here)

Incrustar un video dentro de su propi reproductor

• Moodle has an inbuilt video player called Flowplayer. If the multimedia plugins filter is enabled by the administrator, videos embedded into the text editor will play inline in Flowplayer.
• Anywhere that Moodle's TinyMCE text editor is available, it is possible to embed a video, for example in a label or a page, a course topic summary, a quiz description or a lesson.
• One ecxeption seems to be MP4 files. They don't seem to play in Flowplayer unless hacked. See discussion here: http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=208849
