I've been using TW under node.js because I like that tiddlers are 
individual text files accessible easily from anywhere, and in a way that 
can be integrated with my regular tag-based filing system.  I've been 
making one TW per course to hold my lecture notes - easy navigation, all in 
one place, but also easily accessible from outside of TW.  I've been 
thinking about using TW as a presentation tool - keen to try out the new 
stuff Jeremy is working on (http://tiddlywiki.com/talkytalky/). I've run 
into one problem, however, which has to do with external videos. Even short 
video clips can be quite large, and so not importable.  However, they also 
can't be linked to in the ordinary way, when using node.js.  At least I 
don't think they can.  Things like this don't work:

<img 
src="file:///Users/andrewdlister/Dropbox/Economic%20Freedom%20and%20Income%20of%20Poor.png"
 
 >

<video width="320" height="240" controls>
  <source 
src="file:///Users/andrewdlister/Documents/13-14%20Documents/Friedman_TalentvsWealth.mp4"
 
type="video/mp4">
</video>

For the image, it's no problem to drag and drop to import the image into 
the TW.  But this video clip  is 9.7 MB, for just a couple of minutes.  I 
had 5 or 6 of these in my Keynote presentation for the class.

It's not a big deal to have to use presentation software. But TW is 
otherwise almost perfect (soon to be perfect?) for presentation, so I just 
thought I would ask to make sure I'm not missing something basic about TW 
via node.js.

I suppose one option is to set an ordinary TW for each presentation.

Thanks for any suggestions.
