For any space that you feel should have information filled in, but you don't know what this info is, place a # sign. And if you are sure something doesn't exist, leave it blank. We're in the process of putting together a new Poser database specifically for videos, which you can find at {{{p/hlp/materials/PoserVidsOnSlate.xls}}}. Most videos have not been added yet, so your best bet is emailing Cassandra Donatelli, and asking her whether such-and-such a video exists.
