Lower bandwidth option

Question

Hi,Is there any option(s) (maybe JavaScript) to automatically degrade or enable the user to select between lower bandwidth options where appropriate?For example, if a module contains video, it should also contain an audio-only alternative, and perhaps a picture-only alternative.So, in theory if the bandwidth is low video will hide and we will have audio only.I know slightly complicated, however this is a client request.Thanks for help.PB

Hi Piotr.That sounds like a cool idea, particularly for developing countries, unfortunately Captivate has no way of knowing what an individual's bandwidth is at any given time. It doesn't/can't actively monitor bandwidth once published. You may be able to write, or hire a developer to assess bandwidth conditions on initial connection and then guide the leaner to the appropriate course, but that would be controlled by your LMS, not Captivate. Cheers, Steve Hi Steve,Thanks, what about java script for Captivate?I found something like that: javascript - Checking someones bandwidth and loading content based on it - Stack Overflow Piotr

I am not aware of such a functionality. In a responsive project, creates using Breakpoint views, you could opt to have only audio for the mobile breakpoin(s) instead of the video for tablet and desktop. However low bandwidth is not necessary due to the use of smaller screens.
