Creating Projects
The first step consists in creating a project from the Start page of the editor.
You can indicate the dimensions of the vide player, the width of the comment board and the height of the playlist area (which is the list of sequences).
You can choose a visual theme from the built-in ones or create your own theme from a base theme.
Source Files
Once the project has been created, you have to indicate the source files that will be used. There are mainly files in the MP4 format. They can also be audio, PowerPoint or image files.


Creating Sequences
Once the sources are defined, you can split them in multiple sequences to build the outline. You can indicate the start and end positions to keep only a part of the source.
Users will see the sequences in the playlist but not the sources. Some sequences can be marked as chapters to build a two-level outline.

Adding Comments
On the user interface, the comment board allows you to display additional content and make links to other sites or documents.
You can define the display time of comments and pause the video when comments are important.

Asking Questions
In addition to comments, you can display Quiz screens. They are single or multiple choices questions. Users are invited to answer the question and see feedback for their correct or incorrect responses.
It’s a very good way to stimulate attention and add interactivity to the video. And each question can be part of an assessment giving a global score for the video.
Video Captions
A caption is a text or image displayed right over the video. You can set the position, formatting and of course display time. You can also play a sound to add an audio comment.
Lots of applications can add captions but here the source file is not modified. You can change the captions at any time.

Access Mode
Once you’re done sequence the video, you have to define an access mode for users:
Then you decide if the video must be visible on your store.
- Free: free access to whoever knows the access link.
- Charge: you set a price giving hours of access on the video.
- Charge: you set subscription offers on your store and users access the video with a valid subscription code.
- Access code: you generate access codes that you send to users who will be able to access the video by entering the code.
