The largest screen size available is a 10.1inch HD screen. The next size down is a 7inch screen, then next is a 5inch screen. You can then go down even smaller to a 4.3 and 4inch screen. And finally the smallest size is a 2.3inch screen used for our video business cards.
The videos play in alphanumeric order i.e. 01, 02, 03, or A, B, C etc. When loading the videos onto the card you need to give them the name 01. or A. If you name the files in that sequential order that is the order the videos will play in.
From 1GB to 16GB, depending on your requirements. For our 5inch screens we typically do 128MB, and for our 7inch screens we typically do 256MB.
A battery life of up to 12 hours can be specified and the standard is 2 hours. Batteries are fully rechargeable via Video in a Box’s mini USB port

We supply promotional video products from business card size up to bespoke Video in a Box sizes including Video books, LP Video Records and Video Presentation Boxes.
Cards are normally supplied with 4 colour printing and gloss or mat lamination as standard. Spot Colours, Spot UV, Foil Blocking, Embossing and other finishes are available. Cards can also be supplied in other materials.
Yes, they can. We can make a product or video card box as generic as possible so that you can re-use the box for anything and just change the video in accordance to that change.
Yes, we provide the mini-USB cable with all boxes. However, if requested by yourself we don’t have to include the cable.
Once we have signed off approved artwork for the order, typical delivery if 3-4 weeks. This can depend on the complexity of the order and the quantity which can cause it to take slightly longer than this.
This varies on screen size. HD options are available, otherwise 2.4″and 2.8″ is 320 x 240 resolution, 4″, 4.3″ and 5″ is 1280 x 720, 7″ in 1280 x 720 and 10″ is 1920 x 1080. Various file formats can be used including MP4 or AVI, (we will normally correctly encode, optimise and load any video for you).
It’s extremely rare that the video screens don’t work. The manufacturers of the screen do a full QC on all screens to ensure everything works prior to it leaving the factory. We ensure all our products are packed with full protection – including an outer box, 2 inner boxes, and a 10ml white foam as well as another carton around the box/brochure which is double walled including some extra protection for the edges.
We have 3 methods of playing the videos. Typically, with our brochures, the outer case is in contact to the screen case inside. We have a magnetic trigger within both cases so once the brochure is opened the video plays when closed it turns off. With our boxes typically the screen case inside wont we touching another part of the box, so what we would use is a light sensor. This will turn the video on once the light hits the sensor. And again, turns off when the box is shut. Another option is buttons, which you can use to just turn the video on and off.
Yes, we do. We have a wide range of available samples to send out to customer ranging from Hardback to softback, including A4, A5 etc. What we do is write the sample up as an order, and send this out to you. All we ask from you is that the sample is kept in the condition it arrived in and is returned to us once you’ve finished showcasing this to colleagues etc.
In all of our video products we use lithium batteries. These batteries are used in many products now including portable chargers, mobile phones etc. They are completely safe to be shipped especially as they are even more protected with the packaging.
You can recharge the battery as many times as needed. Similar to a mobile phone you can recharge a numerous number of times. These batteries should still be working in a few years’ time depending on how many times you’ve re-charged the battery.
One. We can provide just 1 video box. The lower the quantity the higher the price. Typically, we get low quantity orders for promotional products and events.
Ideally you should produce your own artwork and video content. We do have occasions where sometimes you may not have access to a designer or design team, we can then contact our design team to produce this for you at a cost. The same with the video content we can put you in contact with some videographers to help you put your video together.
Yes, we always encourage customers to have a pre-production sample made. This is to ensure you are happy with everything, and the items going inside fit inside the fitments etc. We do charge for a pre-production sample, however if an order is placed after this, we do offer a discount on the pre-production order against your full order.
The video business cards are a great giveaway item. We used them to promote our new car and were very impressed with the return in our investment. Our clients were very impressed and we managed to increase our sales.

We were looking around for an innovative way to deliver a sample of our Single Malt Scotch Whisky. The whisky has been aged for 50 years and a bottle is valued at £25,000, so only luxury packaging would do. We found Video In a Box and with them, we were able to build our perfect video box. We knew that we wanted to include a Whisky pipet, 2 glasses and the bottle but with Video In a Box we were able to integrate a lovely video screen to show our Glenfiddich message. Our clients were blown away with the package they received, we would highly recommend working with Video In a Box.

After talking to 4 different companies and finally finding Magellan and Video In a Box, it was a massive breath of fresh air for me. The project was dumped on me and I had no experience in dealing with multiple orders from several suppliers. Video In a Box took this workload off my shoulders and they were the only company to answer all my questions and lead me down the best route for my project. It was so nice to talk to someone who actually knows what they are talking about and they helped me deliver one of the best pieces of packaging I have ever seen.

We are so glad that we found Video In a Box. Their design team came up with a fantastic 'transplant' feature on our video box to show the reality of transplants. This unique feature went down very well with those that used it! The communication from the Video In a Box team was fantastic throughout and we look forward to using them again in the future.

We needed 50 urgent TV Cards for a last minute impromptu event for some senior executives arriving from various offices around Europe, we needed a way to show them what progress had been made to the new division we had setup, so we used the TV in a CARD Express service from Magellan's dedicated video brochure division to create the cards, they were distributed at the meeting and the feed back was incredible, it could have worked any better. I look forward to working with Magellan team on all our future video brochure requirement.

Video in a Box provided us with an innovative and eye-catching way to communicate the launch of a new campaign to a range of stakeholders, including media, football clubs and key influencers. Their solution allowed us to bring our campaign ambassadors to life for a wider target audience and even delivered some pre-launch social media buzz. They totally understood the need to deliver under pressure and to tight timelines and we would not hesitate to work with the team again.
