Start now! Get the videos ready.

Step 1 : get the videos ready.

Prepare a series of videos in MP4 format named sequentially as:

video1.mp4, video2.mp4, video3.mp4, .... up to any quantity you prefer.

Store them anywhere on your computer for now.

Consider it done!

Also, monitor the size!

Large file sizes would not break the program but sometimes add extra seconds to your loading time and the overall reacting speed.

I recommend the following for video output:

  1. Videos with 540 px in height already provide more than enough resolution for this project. You can certainly go down from there without compromising video quality.

  2. Choose the H.264 codec.

Generally, keeping each file under 2MB is a good practice. (Sharing your project through Github service may result in warnings for files over 50MB.)

You can rename the files manually or use editing softwares for some cool automation.
