Prezi doesn't load

[Kristina Hoeppner]

I could not get the URL nor the embed code to work that Scott provided nor another one. It doesn't seem to be a mixed content issue as I did not try it on a SSL site.

When I go to the url in the object directly -> http://prezi.com/bin/preziloader.swf?prezi_id=bplj8khq8fal

It begins to load - I click the play button it does some more loading and then hangs at about 3/4 load ob blue bar at base of screen.

I suspect there might be an issue with the prezi.com file. This happened for me on FF and Chrome for Ubuntu.

Hello

Is there any work being done on this? We have the same problem of Prezis that used to work in Mahara but no longer.

Example:

Prezi in Mahara (located at the bottom of the page):

http://cumahara.coventry.ac.uk/view/view.php?t=mrM9atWRXQnS80CIHh5G

Original Prezi URL:

 http://prezi.com/kmnquf2e4rnz/finding-technology-march-2013/

The iframe embed code doesn't work at all.

 I embed a Prezi share link in an external block
"http://prezi.com/y12sonib8jkx/?utm_campaign=share&utm_medium=copy&rc=ex0share"
and Mahara generates the following code when the block is saved

"<object width="550" height="400"><param name="movie" value="https://prezi.com/bin/preziloader.swf?prezi_id=y12sonib8jkx"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="never"></param><embed src="https://prezi.com/bin/preziloader.swf?prezi_id=y12sonib8jkx" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="550" height="400" allowscriptaccess="never"></embed></object>"

I tried setting allowscriptaccess to "always" and "sameDomain" with no success. I suspect it's a flash issue. Just not sure what the next step is.

I did some tests on my local machine (Mahara 1.9dev) and on mahara.org (1.7). I found:

1. Embedding a Prezi by iframe works fine (though if your site is HTTPS you will need to change the iframe URL to https:// or just //).

2. Embedding a Prezi by its URL no longer works.

Here's a page from mahara.org where I embedded them both: https://mahara.org/view/view.php?t=8VABibOWsgJ7rfc91zMx

Prezi has been doing some work on their embedding API (see http://engineering.prezi.com/blog/2013/09/03/prezi-javascript-api/ ) so I suspect the <object> code we were using before no longer works. We'll probably need to update it to use the new API. Or, just convert all the existing URL/object-based Prezi embeds into iframe embeds.
