Any Boardmaker 6 button can play a movie, You might refer to page 207 in the online manual that is part of the Boardmaker Plus Help Menu. We will need a couple of things before we add a movie
1. You should have a movie, (my most brilliant post to date!) YouTube is a great source for some cute and otherwise useful movies. Locate them and copy the URL to a Word Document for later use.
2. Download the program YouTube Downloader and install it. The file can be found at http://youtubedownload.altervista.org/
