- We can create a video thumbnail “Title Slide” based on an agreed template as the final touch to all videos which we can produce for you, or send you a photoshop template to design your own.
- An iTunes compatible podcast feed can be created based on the videos in the player OR we can disable downloads of the video.
- The videos metadata is searchable making your site more search engine friendly – simply create a description to and list of meta tags to accompany the video.
