Getting my content added to the training center
Note: This feature is only available to users who have added the content add-on
As a best practice, we suggest naming your files something easy to remember for when we access them to build your training. This file name is for our internal reference only and is not displayed to users on the front end.
The different file types are:
- Videos (mov, mp4, wmv, avi, mkv, webm)
- Images (jpg, gif, png, webm, etc.)
- Documents (pdf, txt, doc, xls, csv, ppt, etc.)
- Audio (mp3 only)
- Interactive Videos (json files generated by the Interactive Studio are stored here for use in Courseware)
Tags
You can add “tags” to any piece of media in your Training Center. Once we tag a file, you’ll then be able to filter your main view by that tag, for easier file organization. You can add as many tags as you like to each piece of media.
Encoding Settings
When we encode your videos, we encode at the highest quality settings available – however that means you will want to have as high quality video as you can to start with – the ole’ Garbage In = Garbage Out analogy.
What video format should my source video be?
The Media Library can accept any format of video and file type that you upload, that is indeed a video. The files that seem like a video file but are not, will be distributed to either the “Images” tab or the “Documents” tab.
What resolution or size should my source video be?
We playback videos at a 16:9 ratio, ideally your source video should be 1920 (width) by 1080 (height). However any size of 16:9 will scale in fine. If your video is not a 16:9 ratio, we will help you and add a “pad” around it to fill up the space to that ratio.
Common 16:9 ratios
| Width | Height | Standard |
|---|---|---|
| 3840 | 2160 | 4K UHD |
| 2560 | 1440 | QHD |
| 1920 | 1080 | Full HD |
| 1280 | 720 | HD |
| 960 | 540 | qHD |
| 640 | 360 | nHD |
Once your files are complete and ready to go, simply share the Dropbos or Google Drive link to team@powerunitcoaching.com and set the permission for the entire folder to Can Edit.
