Please note the following:
- When accessing the Gladys and Bob videos, you will be asked for a password: ACP
- embedding Bob and Gladys videos into the slideshow is not recommended, because the large file size often causes the slideshow to crash or fail to load. Keri’s video is smaller and may be embedded. If the slideshow with Keri’s video embedded causes problems, we suggest using the slideshow without the video embedded, and opening the video separately when you wish to play it.
