Any Easy way to convert from the deprecated flv player module #18

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Hello,

I have a site with a large number of videos using the flv player module. 
I'd like to be able to upgrade to moodle 2.0 as soon as possible (when this 
module is ready)
Is there a way to convert to the media player module without going through and 
redoing everything by hand?

Many Thanks

Phil

Hi Phil, I haven't started development work on the Media Player module for 
Moodle 2.0 yet. The Moodle module API has changed somewhat so current versions 
of modules will not be compatible. I'll be able to answer this question when I 
have a Moodle 2.0 version of the Media Player module up and running.

Hi Mat,

I know its only been 2 weeks since your last reply, but I'm wondering if you 
have made any progress on the updated mplayer for Moodle 2.0?

Thanks,
Mark

Hi Mark,

I've got a big on-going project on at the moment so I don't have enough time. I 
hope to get started on it soon but I can't say when. Sorry!

Hey Matt,

I am also attempting to convert a large number (around 2,000) of videos  
currently implementing the FLV player module over to the media player module. I 
do not have time to individually complete each. Have there been any updates 
made since the last comment was posted? I would be appreciative of any advice 
which you could provide. 

Thanks,
Austin

Hi Austin, as far as I know, there isn't any way to do this. Maybe someone with 
a deeper knowledge of Moodle's core code could help you out since this kind of 
conversion requires changing the core activity module database entries.

I made this little converter - 
https://github.com/t6nis/FLVPlayer-to-MPlayer-instance

It helped me to convert old FLVs to MPlayer instances in Moodle 1.9 before 
upgrading to Moodle 2.x.

Anyway, i recommend you do backups just in case before using this.
