Recently, newer Apple devices such as iPhone 7 and iPad Pro have updated how images from iOS 11 are captured and stored. By default, images are now stored as HEIC (High Efficiency Image) files.
The developer community was not advised of this update prior to the release and, as a result, 3rd party applications (like Vidigami) are not able to display these images as they are not a recognized file format. Solutions are now actively being developed to support this update.
In the meantime, Vidigami encourages iOS 11 users of iPhone 7+ and the iPad Pro to edit the the camera settings on their device to default to JPEGs, instead of HEIC. To disable HEIC on your device, simply go to Settings > Camera > Formats > Most Compatible. On the desktop, HEIC images may be exported from Apple Photos as standard JPEGs for upload.
Thank you for your understanding and patience, whilst Vidigami develops a solution to this.

MS STUCO Celebrating Women In October
This month, MS STUCO is helping ISB celebrate the wonderful women in our lives. One way to do this is to encourage a staff member to wear a colourful tutu on Wednesday 18 and 25th. If you would like to see a MS teacher (male and female) in a tutu on those days donate 20rmb.
(Optional read) Why tutus? Tutus say we are beautiful in all shapes and sizes. What's the Tutu Walk? Take a selfie, post or tweet #We for Women, and spread the message of courage & strength! Teachers will wear their tutus as they walk around the MS Cafeteria. The MS Yearbook photographers will also run a photo booth for that special photo on those days. Students can also buy a tutu for 30rmb and join the lunch time fun. Any one can make a donation of any amount to support research into the treatment of breast cancer. Look for your student council executive at the tutu stall in the MS cafeteria at lunch all October.
MS STUCO meetings
All MS STUCO meetings will be held at lunchtime on Thursdays. Be sure to leave Office Hours on time so you can attend the meeting. Special lunch passes will be given at the meeting tomorrow.
