Here’s what you need to know about the new Docebo video player

The latest update to Docebo comes with an enhanced video experience that many users are already taking advantage of.

The additional features are great for multilingual organizations: The new video player supports the webVTT standard so you can add subtitles to eLearning videos in more than 30 languages.

Bookmarking has been implemented, and you can even enable an option that prevents learners from fast-forwarding through courses (that’s bad news for the cheaters out there, but good news for instructors).

What’s more, the new video player comes with full HLS encoding support and resolution-adaptive streaming.

Today, thanks to better software, delivering high-quality video requires fewer work hours, enabling trainers to produce great videos using the same device they carry in their pocket each day.

According to research from Bersin by Deloitte, in one month alone, 163 million unique video viewers streamed more than 26 billion videos, and watched them for about 5.8 hours on average.

We know video is the future of learning (and, we should add, the present), so we’ve made it Docebo’s mission to harness the latest video technology available.

People like to watch video, much more so than following a slideshow. And videos are also more effective. People are more engaged by human faces and voices and you can deliver more information in a shorter time frame. Nowadays for specific content such as language training it is practically passé not to have a video presenter in a lesson.

And, perhaps surprisingly, video is often used also for compliance training where the personality of the presenter is one of the most motivating and engaging factors.

Video is, simply put, less work and more effective.
