Do any of the following:

To resize the movie object, poster, and frame, use the Scale tool

proportions).

To resize only the frame, use the Selection tool to drag a corner handle.

You can also use the Fitting commands (Object > Fitting) to resize a poster within a frame.

Relink legacy media files

The FLV and F4V video formats and MP3 audio formats work best in InDesign for exporting interactive documents. While video formats such as
MOV, AVI, and MPG can be exported to PDF, they cannot be exported to Flash-based formats such as SWF.

Use Adobe Media Encoder to convert video files to FLV, F4V, or MP4 format. Adobe Media Encoder does not convert audio file formats to MP3,
but you can use an application such as Apple iTunes to do so.

1. Open Adobe Media Encoder, add the video files you want to convert, and convert them to FLV or F4V format.

For more information, see Adobe Media Encoder Help.

2. Do any of the following actions:

Place the media file in an InDesign document. See

Add movies and sound files to documents

.

If the video files have already been placed in an InDesign document, use the Links panel to relink the files to their new versions. See
Update, restore, and replace links.
