Associated Files
Since the Media Library was upgraded in summer 2013, associated files are not as obvious as they used to be. Click on 'Resources' just under the video.
Associated files can be used for attaching a file with the transcript of a video for example.
Video Conversion
The Media Library accepts files in the following formats: .mov, .avi, .wmv, .flv, .mpg, .mp4, .mp3, .wav, .wma so it will probably not be necessary to convert the video. If it should happen that your video is in a different format, there is a video converter available from AnySoft which is pretty good and easy to use. You can download a trial version here http://www.anvsoft.com/download-any-video-converter.html but the completely free version is installed on MyUHI.
