Safe Executable File for Internet

[tom95521]

If you have video in slideshow there is an option "Do not include file for EXE". That is fine for with video on local storage device or local network. When you create a zip file for sharing over internet the video is not included in zip file as part of the folder or in .ptshow data file. Maybe I am missing something but I think it would be a good idea to warn user video will not be included or maybe save video into zip folder or .ptshow data file.

Thanks,
Tom

The 2Gb figure needs to be updated for Version 10 but in principle the information is still valid?

Hi Dave,

Yes. That seems to work with PTEViewer opening video in current working directory. I was not thinking about myself  making this mistake as much as a new user. It could be more user friendly by either alert message or automatic adding video to zip file (PTE created zip limited to 4 GB unless zip64 is used in the future).  I think PTE 10 will be very popular with many new users.

Thanks,
Tom
