Hello Everyone,
I would like to add some "movies" of a variety of
procedures in my company's help system and am looking
for some advice on the best method and tools for the
job. The help system itself was created on RoboHelp
HTML 5.0.1. We currently do not have RoboDemo.
Is it best to create the "movies" using RoboDemo
software that is sold separately or import the
"movies" in .AVI, .MOV or .MPEG format directly into
their RoboDemo projects or (if possible) into the help
system once they have been generated by another
software package?
If the latter, can it be done without RoboDemo and
what is the best video format to keep size to a
minimum while delivering a high quality image?
Further, if the latter, what aftermarket software
would you suggest for constructing the "videos" to be
imported?
Thank you so much for the help.
- Tony
