The Whistle platform was designed around the concept of simplicity – in form and function. This approach allows the content uploaded by our clients to stand out, and not compete with the functional elements of the platform.
Videos are used to extend the client brand and create a richer interactive experience. Video is the preferred format for most people to consume content (as clearly demonstrated through most social media platforms).
Acceptable Video File Types
- MP4 (preferred)
- MOV
- AVI
- WMV
- GXF
- MKV
- MPEG2-TS
- MXF
Video Dimensions
- Whistle recommend producing video in a 16:9 video format as we know that looks the best with the app layout, but it is not required.
- Whistle recommends 1280 x 720 pixels videos. 4K and other higher-definition videos formats can be uploaded but will be compressed so the larger file size just slows the uploading process. Lower resolution videos might look a little funky on certain higher resolution devices.
Embedded Video
Whistle can also accept embedded YouTube videos by selecting the video button in the text editor and then adding the URL of the video you want to include.
