I have several videos in my lesson which is causing the file size to blow up and it takes a long time to upload to my LMS. Can I reduce the file size?

Hi Ellen,

This is a great question and I have a great solution. The best way to reduce the size of a lesson that features many videos is to host the videos remotely on a web server or video hosting service like Vimeo and then link the video objects to the hosted videos with the 'MP4 URL' property. Also be sure to remove the video from the lesson by changing the video objects 'Select Video' property to point to nothing. Here is a short video showing the process.
