Editing and adding Flash videos
== Editing and adding Flash videos ==
While Google and YouTube offers automatic video conversion to Flash format and an easy way to add existing videos from those video portals, they usually sometimes include links or advertising to irellevant irrelevant content at the end of the videos. It is To avoid this, it's possible to upload Flash videos for inclusion directly on Madacamp.com without the resulting advertising. However, if a video has been taken with a typical digital camera , it is 's most likely not in Flash format to begin with. It Intead, it may be an in Mpeg, AVI or Quicktime movieformat. To publish such video on a Madacamp page it is necessary to convert it to FLV (Flash) format first. This can be done using a free video editor such as [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avidemux Avidemux]. Open the video file and select FLV formats via the ''Video'', ''Audio'' and ''Format'' selectors. Optionally add any filters before selecting ''Save Video'' and giving . Give the new file an .flv extensionand ''Save Video''.

The size and aspect ratio can be tweaked like a normal on-page image, by defining the pixel values as follows:
<nowiki>[[File:Video.flv|300x375px]]</nowiki>
Alternatively, [http://ffmpeg.org FFmpeg]] is an excellent and free video editing tool, but which requires editing by the command line, which may be preferred by Linux users.
