VIDEO SECTION OF MEDIA PORTAL
What video formats does the video need to be in order to work with the Media Portal?
The only video format that the Media Portal accepts, is Flash Video or (FLV) format. Information about video specifications is provided from within your Content Management System.
Is there a specific size the video needs to be?
Information about size specifications is provided from within your Content Management System.
Is there an optimum compression setting for videos?
Information about compression specifications is provided from within your Content Management System.
Can I move videos from one category to another once the video is already uploaded?
No. Not at the moment. Once you've uploaded a video to a category that you've created, there's no way to relocate that video file to a different category. It would be necessary to re-upload that video to any additional categories in which you'd like the video to be viewed.
What if I don't want to enter text for each video?
No problem. While the text area is a great place to feature sermon notes, or some call to action... you can always leave it blank. That's your option.
Why is there an area for artwork in the Audio section, but not in the Video section?
There is no available space for artwork in the Video section due to the space the actual video player utilizes. Since there's no video player in the Audio section, there's room for artwork that can visually enhance and spice up your messages... like graphics from your sermon series.
What are "Keywords" for?
Keywords are simply an added feature that makes your sermon video content easier to find when an online guest performs a search.
For example... the title of your message might be... "Stewardship Principals." But in that very message, you also dealt with addiction, family, debt, obedience and sacrifice. In addition to entering a sermon title, you could include "addiction, family, debt, obedience, sacrifice" as additional keywords to be associated with that message.
When your online guests perform a search with any of those words... your message "Stewardship Principals" will show up in their search request.
Just imagine the power of keywords.
