San Francisco State University is pleased to introduce our recently completed Moodle integration to the lecturecapture.com community.

The integration with the Moodle Learning Management System (LMS) was performed by the Academic Technology unit at SF State and utilizes Echo 360's ESS Open Publisher Framework API. It provides instructors the ability to manage lectures within the LMS as they are published from the ESS Server and provides more flexible options for linking or listing lectures within LMS course views.

Maggie Beers, Director of Academic Technology at San Francisco State University has recorded a brief presentation that provides an overview of the integration.
Introduction to Echo 360/Moodle Integration - (duration: 9:17)

We anticipate releasing the code for this integration to the Moodle community by Thursday, April 29th on "moodle.org" (http://www.moodle.org). An announcment will be released on this forum with appropriate links when that has been completed. Our lead Moodle developer, Cliff Tham will also be posting more technical details of our integration work.

Our team will be active on this forum to answer questions, listen to feedback, and begin discussions about improving or advancing this integration. You can also direct any direct inquiries to me (Andrew Roderick, roderick@sfsu.edu).

The source code for the Echo360 / Moodle Integration is now available to the Moodle community.

You can find screenshots, information about the project, the Moodle source code and the Echo360 publisher plugin in SourceForge ( http://sourceforge.n...lecturecapture/).

As mentioned before, please post your comments and feedback on this integration. We've been using this integration at San Francisco State University for the past semester, but we'd love to hear how other universities are using Echo360's lecture capture system in conjunction with Moodle.

Cliff,

I was working through the install documentation on my Moodle 1.9.8 system and ran in to some trouble. First, can you check page 6 for a typo in the Language section?

/lang/en_utf8/resource.php
Add the following line to the block_admin.php file:

The second part is a bit more difficult. I got to page 10, ran the sql, but after logging in to set the roles the pages are blank for an admin (see attached). Any ideas on this?

Thanks,
Tom

Hi Tom,

Yes, that is a typo on page 6. Thanks for the heads up. Its a potentially confusing one too. I'll correct it and post a new file to sourceforge.

As for the second part, my guess is that it is an errant character or a missing character during one of the copy and paste steps. The likely candidate is the block_admin.php page where you add a condition for Lecture Capture (from page 5) -- perhaps a missing or additional closing curly brace?

Hope this helps,
Cliff

Cliff,

Perhaps I copied the content into the wrong place in the file? It's difficult to tell where to place the text as I'm not too familiar with Moodle code. I'll go back and check again though.

Thanks!
Tom

Just wanted to say great piece of work on this guys, we are testing it on our system currently with the hope of pushing it out to our live environment over the summer.

Many thanks again

I have done all the things one by one in the integration tutorial given in the zip file but there is no lecture capture dropped into the moodle lecturecapture block.


i have use the following command to see if there is a
~>tail -f /var/log/httpd/moodle_access
and see the followin line in the log feed
10.19.10.13 /var/www/html/moodle/mnet/server.php 201 ...

the ip is the ip of echo360 server

From this i deduce that there is no xmlprc problem between echo and moodle server

what else can be the problem ?



on the other hand i have also installed another instance of moodle onto another server and try the calendar plugin it works without problem.
