Uploading Videos - Need Help! AGAIN!!!  Reply with quote  

Hi everyone, this is a great website and I'm really enjoying looking at everyones FIDS. They're all so beautiful. I previously asked about putting pictures on my homepage and got some great help and so I have started my own homepage which has been great fun. Check it out! But now I am having trouble uploading a movie. I have a movie that is a little bigger than the 5mb allowed and it is also an MPEG movie. Does anyone know if there is any way of getting it on my homepage? Thanks for your help.

I THINK you can upload videos that are only 2 mbs on here & they have to be in the WMV (?) format.
For larger files, or in different formats, you could open a free acct with one of the many different video hosting sites on the web, such as PutFile.com, Zippy Vids, U Tube, among others.
And once you upload the videos there, you can post a link to it on your home page, or diary.
That's what I've done before anyway. On my most recent diary page, at the botton I put a link to a video I shot becuz the camera I used doesn't use the WMV file format.

Hope that helps!

I did it. Thanks again guys for all your help. I'm really happy with my homepage. I got the video link up and running. Take a look if you would like to see Cheeky dancing. Isn't it great to be able to brag about our little FIDS! Laughing
