Hi Rosa,

I'm not sure I follow, videos cannot be converted to H5Ps and vice versa. You can upload a video into specific contents such as Interactive Video, Course Presentation so that you can add interactivities. However you cannot download the video as a video format like mp4 with the interactions. It has to be an H5P file which is actually a zip files which includes the video and other codes.

Hi BV,

I have some videos that I would like to use but they are mp4/ mediaplayer files. Can I change them to h5p?

Hi Rosa,

You can't convert them to H5P files. What you can do is upload the video into an H5P content and add interactivity. If you can probably explain a bit what exactly you would like to achieve maybe we can guide you on the best course of action.
