How do I add a video file?

CTE iStudio RapidWeaver FAQ
A CTE iStudio/Portfolio Lab Partnership

To add a video file to your portfolio:

1). Select the page you wish to add your video to in the page listing column to the left.

2). Open your portfolio folder and navigate to the folder where your movie is stored and select it.

NOTE: You will need to make sure that your movie has been saved as a .mov file before adding it to your RapidWeaver portfolio.

3). Drag the movie file to where you would like it to be located on the page.

A warning box will appear asking to make a choice about how to deal with the video file. If your video file is located in your portfolio project folder, then select "Alias." If not select "Copy."

NOTE: The difference between Alias and Copy is that Alias will create a link to your video file in your portfolio folder and add the video when you publish your portfolio. The Copy option will copy your file and place it in the RapidWeaver project file. Because you have created and placed your video in your portfolio, using Alias would be recommended to keep your project file size small.

4). Click preview to test your video.
