A recent question on the Articulate community forum asked:

I want to have several hyperlinks on one slide that open different 
videos while coming back to that same slide. I also want a slide 
in which the learner can read, choose to watch a video clip or 
simply move onto the next slide.

Here is one approach to this design. Create a slide with a list of the videos and make each item in the list a hyperlink to the slide containing the appropriate video.

Embed each video as an mp4 or flv file into its own slide using the insert Flash choice in the Articulate menu. Use the default settings of advance automatically and synchronize with presentation.

In the slide properties menu, hide the slide containing the videos, set their branching to go back to the slide with the list of hyperlinks, set their view as slide only and lock it, and make sure they are set to advance automatically.

Use a similar approach for the slide on which the learner can read and go to a video if desired. The following screencast illustrates this process.
