Nei video si vede solo metà video.
In the videos you only see half of the video.
If you can, please fix the videos. The audio is there but on most of them half of the video itself is missing, audio plays only.
Please fix videos! They keep freezing towards the end.
Videos are damaged as half of the footage does not play with the audio, tried different media players. Thanks anyway. The homework ideas are good nonetheless.
