Project goals
The purpose of this document is to plan how to integrate HTML5 Player with flash fallback in Moodle.
The aim of this change is to reach a consistent look of the player among different platforms and browsers, as well as making sure that video will play regardless browser native support of the given format. Another aim is to improve accessibility and usability, enhance customisation.
Considerations
- Usability of the player - is it easy to use it and intuitively understand how to use controls?
- Accessibility of the player - possibility of keyboard navigation, subtitles support?
- Appearance of the player - can its interface be modified, themes support?
- Consistency among browsers - does player look the same?
- Audio support - can player handle HTML5 <audio> tag?
- Mobile platforms support - can player also work on iOS and Android?
- Streaming media support (including adaptive-bitrate delivery) - can player handle RTMP, Apple HLS, Adobe HDS, Microsoft HSS?
- Plugins support - can we use community plugins easily?
- Embedding support - so users could post media content outside Moodle, if permitted.
- Maintainability of the links between the player and Moodle - how much work will we need to do every time we upgrade?
Candidates
- Flowplayer HTML5
- Video.JS
- Projekktor
- ??? Are there other alternatives?
