LSO online tests via offline player

Hello,
Is it possible to use the offline player to download the test and make it locally?
When I look in the help provided with offline player I can see that it only mentions
WBT.

You can configure offline player to have the learner select the location of the content "Show selection dialog for Data Sources" in the offline player configuration. When the learner books the course in the portal and selects to take the course offline"Download Course, a dialog will appear which asks to either identify where the course is located locally or download the source online.
The learner can select the local source and click "local available source". I like this method because it allows the learner to choose if they want to download or use local distributed content.
Let me know if this helps.
Cheers

How to install the OffLine Player for LSO

Hi ,
I looking for a documentation in order to install the OffLine Player for LSO , and also if the Learner Portal will propose the install on every PC ussing the Learner Portal ?
Thank you .

Yes, there is a document in Service Marketplace which discusses this. I am only familiar with LSO 300.
https://websmp201.sap-ag.de/~form/sapnet?_FRAME=CONTAINER&_OBJECT=011000358700000107422007E
I don't recall if it is on the standard course details page or not (we have done a lot of customization to our Learning Portal), but we have a separate section on our course type details page which reads as follows:
Download Course
You can play this course offline if you want, for example, on a laptop. To do so, you must download the content files to your computer. Please note the following:
- The actual download and subsequent display is done with the help of the Offline Player, which must be installed on your PC. Install Offline Player
- When you switch back to online playing, you can synchronize the progress you made offline with the data in the Learning Portal.
Download Course
Please note that there is a requirement to have the Java SDK loaded on the computer in order to deploy the Offline Player. This is big hassle to incorporate into the installation process, but we had our IT group create a batch program to 1st install the Java SDK, followed by installation of the Off-line player.

LSO portal - offline player configuration

hi team,
Could someone shed some light on LSO offline player post installation configuration. The standard installation guide doesn't talk anything about the offline player configuration.
As per my knowledge, the offline player installed on the local PC directly connects to Content Player running on learning portal through http session, so is there anything that we need to mention like Content player URL in the offline player. so that it will directly interact with Content player everytime.
i believe there are won't be any functional changes in the backend right, on the LSOFE side. please explain.

Hi,
Where as i know there is no functional change required for this other than normal configuration for LSO.
Need to provide credential whenever you want to connect to backend system .

Hello. I have an Ipad 3 and I have installed the facebook app for ipad. Though I'm online, I appear offline to my friends. And, there is no chat bar when I log in via safari! Please Help!

Hello. I have an Ipad 3 and I have installed the facebook app for ipad. Though I'm online, I appear offline to my friends. And, there is no chat bar when I log in via safari! Please Help!

I believe the Facebook App requires (or at least it did in the past) the screen to be rotated to Landscape to access/enable chat functions/enable online status (I believe at the bottom-right of the screen). You need to set your online status to available (or whatever their terminology is) to have other people see your online status and availability to chat.

LSO-External Online Tests

Hi,
Can we import Extenal Suppliers Online Tests into SAP-LSO through Authoring Tool? If yes Please tell me the procedure.
Regards,
Sushma

Sushma,
You CAN import 3rd party created tests into the LSO using the Authoring Tool. There are a number of SCORM conformant products and vendors that will output a SCORM package for you to import. Such a test can be added to a course as a separate SCO or be standalone.
Here are some SCORM conformant tools for test creation:
Articulate Quizmaker
Adobe Captivate
The issues come up when running reports on the test data. Since SCORM data is placed into SCORM tables in the LSO, the delivered reports for test will not work as expected. Custom reporting is an effective way to get the test result data you will need.
Import a test is just like importing any other SCORM content in AE.
Tools->Import Resources->As a reusable Media Object

Offline Player : Synchronize course is always disabled

Hi All,
I am trying to download a course,play it offline and synchronize back to portal to update the learning progress.
Downloading of the course is succesfully done,but Synchronize course is always disabled.See the attached screen shot
I downloaded 3 or 4 courses,synchronize is disabled for every course.
Currently I am using LSO offline Player SP10(LSOOP6010_0-20000709.EXE)
I could not find a way to enable Synchronize.
Do we need to configure any other things to enable Synchronize
Please suggest
Regards,
Santhosh
+966 530996429

Hi Rubert,
I am not sure why that synchronize is disabled.
But I found way to Synchronise courses..
Once you download the course with the offline player.
You will see a refresh link ...Click on that...
Navigate through the contentin offline player.
And in the portal,you can see Switch to Online Player.
Click on that,It will synchronize the course from offline player
Hope I am clear

SAP Learning Solution u2013 Offline Player - Application size?

Hi Guys,
I've been engaged to package and distribute this software for a client and need to know the installation size (MB) of this application. They haven't ordered the software yet but expect a quote for distribution to their entire network which is difficult without knowing how large it is.
I've looked high and low and can't find any information on this application so if anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated. Even just a rough idea is fine.
Thank you!

Hi,
if you mean the pure Offline Player that has to be installed on the learner's client I can tell you the size from my recently installed Offline Player for LSO 600:
The downloadable .exe file from service marketplace has 14,5 MB and the whole installation directory after installing it has 12 MB.

I have just updated my PC with version11.14. I can no longer connect to my Bose 30 soundtouch via media player Can anyone help please

I have a Bose soundtouch system .Until today I could play my iTunes music through it via air player . .I have just uploaded the latest upgrade from iTunes and now I am unable to connect to the Bose system . Can anyone help please? I can connect via my iPad and by using the Bose app so it is not the Bose at fault

@puebloryan, I realize this thread is a bit old, but I have encountered a similr problem and wondered if you had found a solution. I've been using home sharing from itines on my PCs for years, but two days ago, it suddenly stopped. I can share from my Macs, but not from the ONE PC library where I keep all my tunes. I tried all the usual trouble-shooting measures.
After turning home sharing off on the PC's iTunes, turning it back on and turning some other settings off and on, my Macs and Apple TV could briefly "see" the PC library, but as soon as I try to connect -- the wheel spins for a bit and then the connection vanishes. It's as if they try and then give up.
Since this sounds so similar to your problem, I was hoping you finally found a solution. I am also starting a new thread. Thanks!

I support a very large school district currently running Firefox 3.6. What will happen at end of life date? We're in the middle of online testing this week.

I run the test center for a very large school district with over 120k students. We've got a current deployed base of 54k client machines using Firefox 3.6. We haven't upgraded due to multiple reasons, the most important of which is removing the possibility of using In Private Browsing from the students, and dealing with plugin-updates for the non digital natives (read dumber than a bag of hammers users) that make up the majority of the client base.
We're testing ESR now, but just found out that end of life for 3.6 is tomorrow, 4/24. We are currently in the middle of statewide online testing. The question is, what will happen tomorrow when the browser goes end of life. The ESR wiki mentions that "an update to the current version of Desktop Firefox will be offered through the Application Update Service"
So the main question is, are my students/teachers going to get a popup telling them they have to update the browser if we have the updates already turned off? If so, can I turn it off remotely using SCCM, because it will cause all kinds of havoc.
Please advise asap, and thanks in advance.

We had to do some serious gymnastics to remove at least most of the ability to use IPB. We removed it from the gui, but unfortunately, if they know the hotkey, they can still bring it up. Security has some serious headaches with this, as by law they have to be able to track where students go, and going with private browsing removes their ability to do forensic work they're required to be able to do. Not a very well thought out feature from Mozilla in my opinion, but it is what it is. Successive versions have made it even more difficult to remove even the gui portion.
We do plan to release ESR due to the aforementioned security issues, but testing has been slow.
But thanks for the reply. I think we can turn off the updates if it isn't already done.

To set the timer in the Screen for online test

Hi all,
This is sujoy here....
i am developing a tool in SAP for Evaluation /test of any subject or topic where i have to incorporate the Timer Concepts as i will set this in the screen which where remaining time will decrease after each second like Online Test using web pages and after a predefined duration of 30 min( or 45 min or something like that) when that preset time is elapsed completly,the "SUBMIT" pushbutton will be Triggered automatically( if candidate does not press it within the duration).
Is there any FM or Program regarding this concepts...
Need your help...
Regards,
Sujoy

Hi Sujoy,
Addition to my previous post..Use the JavaScript I mentioned in my previous post in the onload of your BSP page. And after 30 minutes or so submit the form, you need to make a addition to the java script given in that link.
See this code:
<%@page language="abap" %>
<%@extension name="htmlb" prefix="htmlb" %>
<head>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE = "JavaScript">

</SCRIPT>
</head>
<htmlb:content design="design2003" >
<htmlb:page title = "Timer test application "
              onLoad = "InitializeTimer()" >
    <htmlb:form id="form1" >
      <htmlb:button text    = "Submit"
                    id      = "but01"
                    onClick = "myEvent" />
    </htmlb:form>
</htmlb:page>
</htmlb:content>
OnInputProcessing you navigate to next page using
navigation->goto_page( 'second.htm' ).
Hope this helps...
Regards,
Ravikiran.

Bad video quality via Quick Player and Apple TV

I have been watching videos via Quick Player from my MacBookPro and Apple TV for some time in excellent quality. Suddenly now the picture quality has dropped significantly
Quality is still good if I watch via I tunes, but Itunes does not import .avi videos
How can I fix it?

there are many third party apps that will do it.
also, if you are able to get the video into itunes as it currently is, then you can right click on it and choose "create appletv version".

WS testing via SR (Service Registry)

Hi ALL,
1. i have a simple sync-service (WS2RFC; based on standard rfc).
2. service was successfully tested via RWB--> test message (expected response).
3. WS was published on PI-Service Registry (as shown at http://www.riyaz.net/blog/pi-71-publishing-service-interface-as-a-webservice-in-sr/).
my question:
4. when WS is being tested (at Service Registry environment) i'm getting an application err (rfc exception, sxmb_moni shows "application error). Note: if i'll copy the soap-env-body and send it via RWB--> test message it works fine!!!.
how come? what can be done?
Regards
Uri

Hi,
Tnx for your replay.
the auto-generated url is seems to be ok (as far as i understand; after clicking the wsdl is opened and it seems to ok as well).
anyhow:
when testing (via SR) the WS the response is an exception thrown by the rfc (therefore, i'm able to call target rfc at target system).
how can i test the url?
following the additional input, can you suggest other debug options?
Regards
Uri
