Pic taken from 2012 2nd edition Pre-Intermediate clip. Unit 1 1F. , then just called Solutions. I found video DVDs and multi-ROM DVDs (different editions) maybe all are DVD-ROMs. There's also a Classroom Presentation Tool (Whiteboard ?).

At least there are also Czech (Maturita Solutions), Polish (Gold) and Bulgarian editions.

I think rather few clips of interest (general clips, landscape, sports Soccer, Baseball). Interviews might be of interest. I haven't checked all clips.

I found this better scene from an earlier level, Starter Level, episode 1 Just a Little Joke (Cambridge University Press), clip A1 video 1. Younger studentes sitting eating ice cream. The boy pictured is called Tom (Thomas) said he's from Paris, Texas (USA). 2 boys and 2 girls. The other boy is called Dan. One girl is Ruby, the other Ellie or similar.

Level 1 already has older teens. The previous pic was from level 4 episode 4.

I also have added some clip titles. The video series is called Get Th!nking.

There should be DVD and CD-ROMs and Split editions (4 units each) and "Plus" editions (Online skills ?) with audio and video as well. Also with interactive whiteboard contents (itools). I think a DVD is in fact a DVD-ROM. I've seen one with Starter and Level 1, obviously a DVD-ROM for students.
