Linking to Videos
To link to videos from Films on Demand:
- Click "Share", located under the video
- Click "Embed/Link"
- Copy the RECORD URL. This proxy link will enable students to access the video from anywhere off-campus, provided they log-in using their name & 7 digit College ID. All proxy links should begin with "https://login.cincinnatistate.idm.oclc.org/login?url=".
- If you're adding the link to your Blackboard site, you will want to be sure to check the box for "Have link open in a new window" to ensure that the content is not blocked.
Embedding Videos in Blackboard
To embed videos from Films on Demand directly within your Blackboard course:
- Click "Share", located under the video
- Click "Embed/Link"
- Copy the EMBED CODE.
- In the Blackboard editor, click the HTML button.
- Paste the EMBED CODE into the form.
- Click "Update".
Please note: it is highly recommended to also include a link to the RECORD URL with the embedded video. The link provides another access point if the student's browser or security settings block the video from displaying.
