File is too big - any suggestions? Aug 28, 2013 By Comly Wilson My course is a series of 6 videos, that combined come out to 1.2 gigs of space (in FLV). This is too large for my LMS to upload. I tried converting the videos to MP4 but it didn't display and SWF, but the quality suffered Can anyone think of a way to get these videos into a SCORM that is a manageable size for my LMS? Thanks!

Comly Wilson Author over 10 years ago08/29/13 at 8:34 am (UTC) I just tried uploading them to Vimeo and inserting them as web objects in Presenter and got this message: This content cannot be displayed in a frame To help protect the security of information you enter into this website, the publisher of this content does not allow it to be displayed in a frame. What you can try: Open this content in a new window Is there something to do differently? I felt like I was on the right track
Comly Wilson Author over 10 years ago08/29/13 at 3:39 pm (UTC) I solved my problem, and maybe I can help those in the future: I uploaded all of the .FLV files to Vimeo at a grand total of 1.2 GBs But I was able to download them all from Vimeo as .MP4 files for a grand total of 250 MBs I don't know how that works, but the quality stays the same and the files get much smaller. The SCORM package is now a manageable size and loaded into the LMS
