3. How to manuallly modifiy the embed code to embed enlarged pencasts

 

       Use a text editor (like Notepad or Wordpad) to change the two occurrences of width="228" height="316"

          To width="342" height="474"  for medium size pencasts 

          To width="456" height="632"  for large size pencasts

 

Examples

  1. Small: 
    Solve and check: 3x-4=32
    brought to you by Livescribe
     
  2. Medium:
    Solve and check: 3x-4=32
    brought to you by Livescribe
  3. Large:
    Solve and check: 3x-4=32
    brought to you by Livescribe

 

4. How to modify the "brought to you by LiveScribe" part

    Use a text editor (like Notepad or Wordpad) to change the bold strings as shown below

        Old: <a href="/http://www.livescribe.com/" target="_blank">Livescribe</a>

        New: <a href="/http://www.math247.pbworks.com/" target="_blank">Math247</a>

 

5. Elegant way to embed pencasts in web pages

 

  1. Elegant method that Chuck Duncan uses here: http://www.dl.ket.org/physicsap/physicsapPCast/tocPencasts.html
  2. Notice how he uses some custom JavaScript functions to open pages with pencasts on them.

  3. Be sure to thank Chuck for figuring this out. 

 

Common steps (old way)

  1. Copy the set of code below for normal or large size and paste it into your favorite text editor (WordPad or TextPad).

  2. Visit My LiveScribe - Find the pencast you want to embed.

  3. Right-click to view source code, search for "flashXML?xml="

    Note: Right-clicking to view source code in IE7 doesn't always work but it always works when using Mozilla FireFox. 

    Another reason to ask LiveScribe to share embed code eh?!

  4. Copy the long string after this.  Something like this: "0000C0A80115000009C5B6020000011A24F1741D0399FEB7"

  5. Replace this string in your text editor in both places.
