We’ve upgraded the Rustici SCORM Engine from version 20.1 to version 23 to ensure continued support, improved performance, and access to the latest SCORM standards. This update enhances compatibility, applies critical security patches, and lays the groundwork for future SCORM-related improvements.
Updating to Rustici SCORM Engine 23 allows users:
- xAPI 2.0 support along with Engine LRS improvements
- Import and launch streaming video formats HLS or MPEG-DASH
- Alternate configuration sources for Hashicorp’s Vault and Consul
This update also resolves most bugs reported by clients related to SCORM. The upgrade supports a wide range of SCORM standards, including SCORM 1.2, SCORM 2004, and others. It also reduces bugs and improves the stability of SCORM content delivery in Blackboard Ultra.
Do not modify SCORM-related database tables. Changes may disrupt the functionality of the upgraded engine.
