Hi Paul,<div><br></div><div>I've checked the path, it is correct. </div><div><br></div><div>Okay I have just found out something, it appears the codec used by my own file converter to flv is not recognised by Xerte.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Because when I used another sample .flv from the web it works fine. So at least I know it has nothing to do with Xerte, it's the particular .flv file I'm trying to load.</div><div><br></div><div>
Thanks guys!</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><div class="gmail_quote">On 29 July 2010 06:55, Paul Swanson <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:Paul.Swanson@harlandfs.com">Paul.Swanson@harlandfs.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

mistake in the path would prevent the video from loading. You won’t see any

using a graphics icon to load a swf movie. I presume the flv video would behave
the same way.</span></p>

you uploading .flv files? The only video format supported is .flv so you need
to convert other files to that format before importing. Tools like
FormatFactory are good for this.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi,</p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I
need help. I am trying to embed video in my presentation using the readily
available template (from pageTemplate toolkits wizard).</p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">But
unfortunately, although the page is there, there is no video showing, and
neither are the controls nor the text that comes with the page (i.e. a blank
page with only the title working/showing). Even when I was trying to preview
the video at the design screen, no video is playing, although the controls can
be seen.</p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">All
other templates I have tried so far have worked well, with no problems.
Appreciate any help, please. Thanks.</p>
