InDesign added audio and video is supported but there are some benefits to using CircularFLO tools too.
The Audio & Video Tools panel (CircularFLO Window menu > Audio & Video Tools) can also be used to help prepare your documents.
The CircularFLO Audio Tools can be used to quickly add audio to areas of the page and to page turns.
By streaming video, the size of the ebook can be greatly reduced and streamed content can be adapted outside of the ebook.
To link to externally web hosted video place a text frame containing the complete URL to the video on the FLO_VIDEO layer. The position and size of the text frame is used.
YouTube / Vimeo type of hosted video is only supported in certain readers, contact us for more help with this.
m4v video or QuickTime video is recommended, make sure your video links are present in InDesign when running CircularFLO. JPEG poster frames can be attached to videos using the InDesign media panel.
Amazon fixed layout does not currently support audio or video and it is simply removed on conversion.
It is advisable to add images and/or links beneath the audio layers which will be revealed in the Amazon file or when the reader of the EPUB is offline.
