Hi Judy,

due to often use and often forget to select this dropdown I would still vote for a forced user interaction.

The new mockup is ok because there is only user interaction needed if material is "enriched" -- but we can loos information if user forget to change here something, leave the box as is / default and produce only "simple" videos.

For me as admin helps the forced interaction to think about the video--is there a segmentation--ups "yes" and we have better material. Tho this is in some cases more interaction--I have ever to choose a value--it would be better for the quality of the output content. This is for me important for scheduling a recording.

If you are talking about uploading a single file only, this may be not so a big problem. Most videos here are not segmented, so I'm fine with the mockup.

Wording:
- Would be better if "Slide / Scenes" is at the beginning direct after the checkbox "Slide / Scenes are in the media" - or do some better word acrobatic ;-)
- "If you check this" can be omitted, just "Media will be ..."

Regards
Clemens

We've heard a number of complaints about (and seen in user testing) how confusing the 
Media Type dropdown is (this is the control where you choose Presenter or Presentation, 
aka "flavors").
I'm proposing a minor change to make this clearer to new users.

Would appreciate comments, suggestions for improved wording. If you're a user 
(or have watched users use the admin UI) does the text make more sense? If 
you're a developer, am I misrepresenting?

tia,
Judy
