XO Lite

This new project looks to take the successful XO Stage playback environment and rebuild it in Macromedia's Flash. XO Lite is tightly intergrated with XO Backlot and allows authors to create their own online presentations using uploaded slides, a webcam and Flash video technology. Once a presentation has been created it can be linked to any existing event in XO Backlot.

This project is currently in beta, further information will be provided in the near future.

XO Sync

Taking much of the framework created by the XO Lite project, XO Sync looks to fill a gap in the production process of quality presentations. The principle aim of XO Sync is to allow author to sync slide shows to pre-recorded video via an online tool, this contrasts with XO Lite which records Flash based video live while the author presents their slides. The source of the pre-recorded video could come from an earlier XO Lite recording, or from processed video supplied to XO Backlot administrators. This latter option allows for higher quality video to be created and not limit playback to Flash, as per XO Lite.

This project is currently in development and will go beta in the near future.
