Comments.Text: This one may be tough to answer in its current form.  Presently, it's wide open... no constraints whatsoever.  To, "learn more about video, from basics to advanced," covers everything, yet points to nothing.  Do you have a first project in mind?  Have you come across troubles so far?  Please edit to narrow your question's scope.
