New Kindle Fire and Classroom Videos?

[Caroline A.]

I recently posted asking about using the Kindle Fire to view TQS shows and was thrilled to know that's coming down the pike. My Kindle is on its way! I hope there will be an announcement when that is finalized. I forgot to ask whether the classroom videos will also be available. I love all these lessons and sure hope they will also be able to be viewed on the Kindle. Please advise. Thanks.

The support people at our video company sent me the information on the new version. I'm pretty sure it was English, but I didn't have any idea what the words meant. However, I have a meeting set up tomorrow to do a test. Don't worry, we will figure it out. Usually I find that after they say all the big words, it ends up that all I have to do is punch the button that says "New Version". I'll keep you posted.

Will you be able to convert the Classroom videos?

[John A.]

Yes, all the videos would be candidates to be converted.

[John A.]

Wonderful! Thanks!

Here is a test of the new version. Please try it on your Kindle Fire's and Androids and let me know if it works. The page is just the Legend show and nothing else. It will take just a little bit to load.

It works beautifully on my Kindle Fire HD. Yeah It took no time at all to load, but that might be my internet connection.

Worked fine..a few stops and starts...prob' my connection...just learning to use this kindle fire hd !

Worked great! Loaded immediately, looked great, sounded great, had the bar at the bottom to start and stop, but didn't have the usual bookmarks along the side. Hope they'll be there in the final version.

Can't wait for everything to be finalized! Thanks

Actually, I like the full-screen, without the bookmarks! I know I can get those on my desktop, rather not have a small view on the Fire.

Ditto !

Seems to work best with Dolphin browser, but I have Adobe flash loaded on mine even though it doesn't come with it. It's set to work with the stock browser that came with the tablet. As soon as I know the new video player will work with TQS shows, I'll get rid of Adobe flash. When I tested the videos for Webmaster Bob awhile back, they worked on some but not all the browsers I had installed.
