You want to include videos in your app...videos that reside currently on your desktop (instead of online at YouTube or something)? Is that correct? Yes, you can do this. You want to add a Streaming Video screen to your application...one for each video. So, you'd probably create a menu list that links to multiple streaming video screens. You then reference a video filename. You'd then include the files in your project. http://www.buzztouch.com/resources/Adding_Files_To_A_Project_v1.0.pdf Does that help? Mark

One note: If you add more than a few simple small videos, and compile them in your app before you distribute it, it's very very likely that the app will exceed the maximum '3G download size' and require users to have WiFi to install your app. Just a thought, it may not matter, or, it may, all depends on your goal.

It helps but, the streaming video is asking for a url and I do not have one since it is on my laptop. I don't know how to get around this.
