== Editing and adding Flash videos ==
While Google and YouTube offers automatic video an easy conversion to streaming Flash format and an easy way to add existing by simply uploading your videos from those video on their portalsand thereafter embedding them on a page, they sometimes this will include links or advertising to irrelevant content non-relevant videos at the end of the videosvideo streams and often include advertising as syndicated by Google. To avoid this, it's possible to you can upload your Flash videos video directly on Madacamp.com MadaCamp without the resulting advertisingor irellevant links being appended onto your video.

To publish As such video on a Madacamp page , it is first necessary to convert it the video info to FLV (Flash) format. This can be done using a free video editor , such as [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avidemux Avidemux].  Open the video file and select FLV formats via the ''Video'', ''Audio'' and ''Format'' selectors. Optionally add filters. Give the new file an .flv extension and ''Save Video''.

The size and aspect ratio can also be tweaked like a normal on-page image, by defining the pixel values as follows:
<nowiki>[[File:Video.flv|300x375px]]</nowiki>
