Camtasia & s2member-files

I'm using Camtasia to create presentations. When I publish my presentations in web-ready format, Camtasia creates a folder that contains several files, swf, html, js, and more.

If I upload that folder inside the s2member-files folder, will it work if I serve the index.html using the ?s2member_file_download=camtasiaFolderName/index.html&s2member_file_inline=yes code?

Thanks,
Buck

Thanks for the excellent question.

No, that won't work, because ALL of the files in that directory need to be served by s2Member, because each of them is located inside the protected directory. In other words, creating the index file is not enough, each file that the index.html file uses, must also be served through /?s2member_file_download=.... Actually, this is possible, but it requires you to use a BASE HREF tag, as I discussed here: viewtopic.php?f=4&t=952&p=7613&hilit=base+href#p7613

In your case though, I would recommend that you publish your Camtasia Studio videos in MP4 format, and then play them on your site with a standardized video player like FlowPlayer or JWPLayer. I've provided some examples here: viewtopic.php?f=4&t=2937&p=16439&hilit=jwplayer#p8949
