User Question:
I just watched your 2 training DVDs for Visual Communicator, very insightful/helpful but I do have one question. We put our videos on our web site but they need to be published through flash (.wmv isn't accessible by mac users) Would you still publish as .wmv and import that into flash or save as .flv file inside VC3?
VC3 can publish as .flv but do realize that might just be a portion of what you need, since flash video files need a player too.
I have a better idea...instead of the workaround of you actually needing to do all those time-consuming conversion steps yourself--how about doing exactly what we do (free)? We upload our videos to SchoolTube as WMV, but you could upload in almost any video format, since SchoolTube will re-encode it anyways. They will convert it to flash in their nice player (see example below). Then if we want them on our own webpages (or this blog!) we grab the embed code and place on a webpage or blog like this example:
By doing this free method, you are not taking up any space on your website, network storage, hard drive, etc. Sound good? Leave any comments or questions as comments on this blog entry and we'll continue the conversations...
