How long can my video be?

You can load more than 5 hours of videos onto the video book. However, the length of the video(s) is truly limited by the 8GB of internal memory.

We recommend videos up to 15 minutes in length for the best experience. There should be plenty of memory for your wedding highlight films or any other short form videos.

How long does the battery last?

The battery lasts for about 2.5 hours. It can last on standby for about 6 months on a full charge. Our Video Books are shipped partially charged so a full charge is recommended before enjoying your video book.

How do I charge the device?

It charges with a standard Type C cable which is supplied. simply plug the included USB cable into an outlet adapter or right into a computer. Wait 30-60 minutes and the book will be fully charged.

How do I play videos in a certain order?

You can organize the videos on video books and have them play in a certain order by simply renaming and adding a number before each file. Files starting with the lowest number will always play first followed by the next videos. You can also organize the videos using an alphanumeric order.

Can I fast forward a video on the video book?

Yes. Simply press and hold the “fast forward” button and the video will start fast forwarding. Pressing the fast forward button once will simply skip to the next video on the device. 

Can I add background music while my photos are being viewed?

Sure! You can load photos and MP3 audio files onto the video album just as easily as loading videos. Enjoy a slideshow of photos with background music playing. The volume of the music can be adjusted using the volume control buttons.

How can I change the default volume?

Our video book default startup volume can be adjusted as desired, and it features a memory function. Once the volume is adjusted and the volume bar automatically disappears from the screen, the video book will remember this volume setting. The next time you turn it on, it will use the memorized volume.

Does my recipient need to have a computer or phone to enjoy the sourcingbay video book? Do they need Internet or WiFi?

No! Sourcingbay video books start playing your video(s) and/or photo(s) the moment the cover is opened. The books do not need to be initially charged or interfaced with technology in any way.
