Hi Everyone,
I'm trying to run a webexperiment where I'm running into problrms with the size of the video stimulus that I want to employ. We've tried everything to get the file size down, and although it's able to run, the time for the study to load is really prohibitive.
In thinking of possible work-arounds, one thing that occured to me was for us to load the videos in a player that we house on our own server, and then just put those into an htmlpage. I think this would definitely solve the problem in terms of file size and loading.
BUT, it's important that the participants don't just breeze through the video without watching it. In other words, I don't want them to be able to click forward or continue until the video is completed.
I *think* I can use htmlpages as instructions only, and if I'm right about this, I'm not so sure how to accomplish this goal.
If anyone has any suggestions, I would surely appreciate it!
Thanks in advance!
Mary
