- BMP/JPG/GIF/WMF: Images with the standard image format s BMP (Bitmaps), GPG, GIF and WMF can be imported directly from the LECTURNITY Assistant.
Assistant Export
- LRD: During a recording the LECTURNITY Assistant always produces recording documents which can be replayed with the LECTURNITY Player, published with the LECTURNITY Publisher or edited with the LECTURNITY Editor.
- AVI: Video files produced during a LECTURNITY recording have the standard format AVI. These files can be edited by any video processing software.
Editor Import
- LRD: The Editor's standard import format is the LRD format (LECTURNITY Recording Document). LRD Documents are normally created directly by the LECTURNITY Assistant.
- AVI: Video files in the standard AVI format may be imported into a LECTURNITY Editor Project, either as normal video, or as a clip. Any Video for Windows compatible codec or a DV video may be used. If the audio contained in the AVI file is also to be imported, it has to be in PCM format (this is the case with DV videos).
- WAV: Audio files in the WAV format may be imported into a Editor Project. This will replace the current audio track.
- JPG/GIF: Still images in GIF or JPG formats may be imported into an Editor Project.
Editor Export
- LRD: The Editor's standard export format is the LRD format (LECTURNITY Recording Format). It can be read by both the LECTURNITY Player and the LECTURNITY Publisher.
- AVI: By exporting an Editor Project, among other files a standard AVI file is created (if the project contains a video). This AVI file may be used with external programs for further editing, if needed.
- WAV: The audio of an Editor Project may be exported as a standard WAV file. This file may be used for further editing in external audio editing programs.
Player Import
- LRD: The Player supports the LRD format (LECTURNITY Recording Document). These files are created by the Assistant upon recording. You can use the Player to preview them directly after the recording, i.e. to control their quality.
- LPD: The primary format for use with the LECTURNITY Player is the LPD format (LECTURNITY Presentation Document). Files with this format can be produced by the Publisher. This format combines and compresses the files of your recording (LRD). Additionally some useful auxiliary files can be added (e.g. thumbnails and fonts) and this format protects your data against later modifications. Thus this format is ideal for redistribution, i.e. on a CD.
Publisher Import
- LRD: The LRD format (LECTURNITY Recording Document) is the well-established import format for the Publisher. Recordings which have been made with the LECTURNITY Assistant are stored in the LRD format.
- EPF: The EPF format (ePresentation Format) is the old-fashioned LECTURNITY import format which is still supported for backward compatibility.
- AOF: The AOF format (Authoring On The Fly) can also be read from the Publisher.
Publisher Export
- LPD: The LPD format (LECTURNITY Presentation Document) is perfect for local replay and/or CD distribution and can be replayed with the LECTURNITY Player. The high quality of your recording will be preserved.
- RealMedia: If the presentation should be distributed via internet/intranet, a web document in HTML format will be produced. Audio-/video data will be converted into the RealMedia format and can be replayed by a player which is embedded in the web document.
- Windows Media: For distribution via internet/intranet a web document in HTML format will be produced. Audio-/video data will be converted into the Windows Media format and can be replayed by an embedded player.
- Macromedia Flash (SWF): Since version 1.7.0 a document in the Flash File Format (SWF) can be produced for distribution via internet/intranet. This SWF document can be embedded into a web document in HTML format. Video and Screengrabbing data can't be replayed this way so far.
