To expand on someone's old saying: A picture or sketch is worth a thousand words, but divide that by 10 for each minute of video ;-) Sometimes a very short video can be helpful, but I mean a snippet of from maybe 15 to 60 seconds, introduced on the (web)page with some explanatory text and then just showing the thing that really can benefit from a video. _______________________________________________ Rosegarden-user mailing list Rosegarden-user@lists.sourceforge.net - use the link below to unsubscribe https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/rosegarden-user
