Streaming Videos
Two of ANTS sites: LION TV and Screencast.Com provide embedding code for individual screencasts. LION TV also provides for streaming of videos - but it streams all content instead of select content. If you want to stream a collection of videos from

OvidSP
I'm wondering if anyone did tutorials on OvidSP interface. We are a number of databases that are being offered with OvidSP interface and some of them most likely will be changed to other vendors in the next possible licensing change opportunity. But in the meantime, we still offer them with OvidSP, so it would be nice to quickly provide some tutorials.
I'd appreciate any lead on this or related discussion.

LION TV / ANTS Episodes available from iTunes
Everyone should be pleased to learn that we are no longer having trouble converting files to m4v and this means that our episodes are now available via iTunes!
To Subscribe to episodes via our iTunes feed, go to feed://liontv.blip.tv/rss/itunes/ and select Actions - subscribe to iTunes.
Big thanks to Paul Betty for making sure the folks at Blip.TV worked on this until it worked smoothly! Paul also got LION TV to send episodes to the Internet Archive earlier this Fall!
Cheers,
Carmen Kazakoff-Lane

Embedding Tutorials in Libguides:
I saw the following posting on the Springshare User community:
"06-02-08 04:11 PM - Post#232
I believe this may have been discussed previously, but I cannot locate that earlier post.
I'd like to use some of the ANTS tutorials (http://www.screencast.com/users/ants/folders/Da tabase%20Tutorials) as embedded video on my libguides, but the videos are too large to fit into the center column boxes. I've edited the width and height in the code, and while this does reduce the size it also only makes that small portion of the video visible. Has anyone figured out a trick or how-to to making these videos smaller without losing any of the visual content?"

To answer the Question, one thing you can do if you are using Libguides it to use our tutorials at LION TV (see http://Liontv.blip.tv/ ) It not only has embedding code - the dimensions of which you can alter - it has more. In particular, you can embed these tutorials and then use the Full Screen Toggle to bring up the full screen in a separate window (thereby making it larger and not losing any content.)
I embedded several in my libguides. You can see them at:
http://libguides.brandonu.ca/content.php?pid=11352

I do hope this helps.

Captivate Help
I'm following Richard's lead here, and starting a thread for all things Captivate. I'm currently using Captivate 3. I've got some experience incorporating video, captioning, and javascript into Captivate projects. I'm also interested in exploring the use of branching scenarios to create self guided tutorials, in the style of the Choose Your Own Adventure series (I loved those books!). Feel free to hit me up with any questions you have about Captivate!

Camtasia help
I have been using Camtasia Studio 5 (and upgrade) since last May. I've learned to use callouts, quizzes, click to continue and producing to .swf, avi and flv. I've also gotten an account at toofast.ca that allows me to embed a link to a feedback survey.
Anyone who is starting with Camtasia, feel free to contact me via this wiki.
