Split screen in two halves with questions + movie (case 15490)

Hello everyone,

I have a very specific question concerning MediaLab:
Is it possible to split the screen into two halves?
For my study, I would like to present rotating RT-questions (participants have to answer) on the left side.
The right side of the screen should be fix showing a movie-file. Although alternating questions on the left side, the movie (on the right side) should be presented without any interruption. Is this possible? And if so, could you please give me an advice? :)
Thanks so much for your answer. :)

Best regards,
Eva Maria

You could create a Custom item in MediaLab to run html code to simultaneously play a video and present questions. Of course, the majority of the work here is in writing the html code. Here are a couple of places to start:


If you haven't already read it, the section of the MediaLab manual about Custom items has great information and some examples of html codes for questions that require a short answer in a text box. You can find it here:[url]http://www.empirisoft.com/medialab/help/custom_items.htm[/url].


You can also find information about embedding a video using html code in the following thread from the Empirisoft forums:[url]http://www.empirisoft.com/support/showthread.php/3442-Video-Playback-Issues-Summary?highlight=embed+video[/url].


Please take a look at these and let me know if you have any more questions.
