Organizational Clarity: “MP4 – Making Flash-based E-learning Videos Universal” article

From the CommlabIndia community is an article from easy, cheap solutions to meet organizational needs. In an email I received was a link to: “MP4 – Making Flash-based E-learning Videos Universal” by Phani Madhav. I must admit I do love MP4 formats when viewing any types of video the quality is close to DVD format and is usable on different types of avenues such as desktops or smartphones.

This article discusses why you should use MP4s to create Flash training programs and use instead of Flash, mainly due to the certain devices cannot use Flash effectively plus you can add subtitles (as mentioned in the article) to the videos which help with multilingual or international audiences.  Keeping the audiences involved and maintaining their interest in the material you are presenting is key so using MP4 format will assist you to avoid presentation problems as mentioned in this article.

These are four other advantages listed in the article when using the MP4 format:

1.       The quality of MP4 videos is near identical to those of original DVD videos 

2.       Content published in the MP4 format can be streamed on mobile devices

3.       Videos published in the MP4 format can be shared very easily on mobiles 

4.       MP4 can be used to develop videos for multilingual learners
