Where is the Video Exporter button?

I've read all about it in the help file, but can't see where it is.

Attack of the stupids, no doubt...

Never mind... found it.

Anyone else tried this? Rather than reinventing the wheel, any suggestions of best codecs etc appreciated.

The best results I've had so far are with uncompressed avis... maybe I need another drive for this!

Also, after the export has completed, and the Publish screen says "Your publication was published successfully" then the Video Creator application runs.

Is this merely playing back the video? Clicking on Abort seems to do no harm, as it's playing without audio; I need to click Test from the Publish window to hear the sound as well.

Also, it doesn't publish the Opus graphics bullets; say the footprint, or the jigsaw puzzle shape.

Looks like a very neat feature, once I get to grips with it...

Thanks, Linda

Well, if you're planning on converting the video with something else, then uncompressed will give the best quality. The downside is of course that the files end up being huge.

No, that's the thing that creates the video. If you press abort you've cut it off half way through.

Edit: Doh! Who made me a moderator. Sorry messed up your post. :oops: - Dave.

Can you confirm that the Opus graphic bullets aren't rendering in the avi (footset, jigsaw etc)

Yes, it's broken, but will be fixed for the next service release.
