Known issues

  • It isn’t possible to cancel video downloads if a video is downloading while the connection is switched off.
  • Chrome 55-56 has issues scrolling the menus on touch devices. Upgrading to Chrome 57 fixes this. #5407
  • Windows needs at least Python 2.7.11. The Windows installer for KA Lite will install the latest version of Python. If you installed KA Lite in another way, and your Python installation is more than a year old, you probably have to upgrade Python - you can fetch the latest 2.7.12 version here.
  • Windows installer tray application option “Run on start” does not work, see learningequality/ka-lite-installers#106 (also contains a work-around)
  • Windows + IE9 One-Click device registration is broken. Work-around: Use a different browser or use manual device registration. #5409
  • Firefox 47: Subtitles are misaligned in the video player. This is fixed by upgrading Firefox.
  • A limited number of exercises with radio buttons have problems displaying #5172
