Is there a way to import resources (in this case, videos) into the library without having to drop them into a stack? I have a videoplayer stack but it takes only URLs or “resources” which appear to be the media assets. I assume those are added into the library once used in a stack. But the videos need to be in the library first before I can use them. Sigh.

Yes, in the case you describe, you would add videos first to the resources area, then the videos are ready to use/add in the video stack you are using.

I’ve been looking for an Import button, or “resource” tab and finally was able to track it down once I found out that there really was one. Thanks! Couldn’t find it in the “manual.”
