Export a video, or put it in a page

A video explainer plays in PageDuo as it is. To send it anywhere else, export it as an MP4; to show it inside a lesson, insert it into the page.

Before you start. A video explainer.
  1. Press Export

    Export is in the video's top bar, after Play video. On a narrower window it shrinks to its icon, an arrow leaving a tray.

  2. Choose the shape

    Landscape (16:9) for screens and slides, Portrait (9:16) for phones and stories. Captions on the video writes the words into the picture — handy where the sound is off.

  3. Press Export, then wait for the download

    The sheet shows how long is left while it renders, then downloads the MP4.

  4. To put it in a lesson, use Insert on the page

    Open the page, then Insert ▸ Video explainer. Pick one of your videos, or make one about what you selected, and it lands in the page.

  5. Changed the video since?

    Select it in the page and press Update video to bring in the new version.

  6. Publish or share it like a page

    Publish puts the video on the web with its narration; Share invites people to work on it with you.

You'll know it worked. The MP4 plays on a phone, and the lesson page shows the video with its own play button.

Publishing and sharing a video work exactly as they do for a page — see Publish a page or a site.
