<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">I have managed to learn (very quickly!!) how to use Xerte, (mainly thanks to Rons videos) but I do have some questions on video and would be VERY grateful if someone could
assist. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">We use Smartboards to record application screen captures with narration at the same time. These are .wmv files and then we have to convert those through CuCusoft software to
a flv format. When I add a media/video page in my learning object it either takes over the screen and gets in the way of navigation, or adding the default video size window completely distorts it? I have tried various resolutions of the same video and changed
the video size in various increments on the media/video page but to no avail. <o:p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">Sorry this is longwinded but I may just be missing something really simple now – wood for trees etc!!<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">We have a whole college development day the week after next and really need the videos to work and at least be legible on a smartboard. The first screen is ok but as soon as
there is mouse movement or narration it’s like it cannot refresh quick enough? Please help!!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
