Embed a Mediasite video directly onto the LM Core page

An example of Mediasite content embedded directly on the LM Core page

 

Overview:

This guide will show you how to embed Mediasite content directly onto the LM Core page instead of just a URL in two ways. One is to use an iframe-based method to embed, another one is to simply click the mediasite icon in rich-text textarea to embed on the course page.

 

What to know:

Embedding the video directly onto the LM Core page can allow your viewers to play the video right on the LM Core page instead of having to go into Mediasite to play the video. It could also make the contents on your page look richer and more straight-forward.
