+====== Media > Synched Video ======
+This [[pagetypes|page]] allows for points on a video to be synched with sections of text.  The text can either build up as the video progresses (as in the demo below), or a new section of text can replace the previous one.
+The **Transcript Reader **page type produces similar effects for audio.
+===== Example demo =====

+==== Core Properties ====
+^ Property ^ Description ^ Type ^ Additional information ^
+| Page Title | Text that appears in the header of the published page  | Text |   |
+| Video | Add the link to the video here. | URL/Link to Media Browser | See the [[working_with_video|Working with Video page]] for guidance on which video platforms are supported in Xerte.  |
+| Page Text | This is some text that displays below the video in the left-hand panel. It is always visible on the page. | Text+ (Toolbar) | You can also include images, tables, diagrams etc, through the Page Text editor.  |
+| Pause on Synch Points | Pauses the video at synch points, so the learner has to restart it each time {**True**/False} | Drop-down | This may be useful if you want to give to time to reflect and possibly re-read the text. |
+| Erase on Synch Points | At synch points "True" replaces the previous section of text with the the next text {**True**/False}, as an alternative to the text building up as the video progresses. | Drop-down | This effectively creates a slideshow synched with the video. |
