Posting videos?

[bobbys girl]

I'd like to post a couple of short videos that I've just taken. How do I go about it?

You can upload them to photobucket and post the link on here.

One I did of Laz not long after he arrived http://vid305.photobucket.com/albums/nn ... I_3692.mp4" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Thanks Mark, I'll try that.

You tube is also straightforward. Do you have a gmail account?

[MarkB]

Haven't tried this one but no account needed - handy for a quick upload https://vid.me/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Well I tried photobucket, but I couldn't download it to catchat - file too big! I'll try again in the moning.

Sue, you don't need to download it to Cat Chat, if you hover over the bottom left of the video image you'll see a 'share links' option, click that and select 'direct link' and post the link here. It will then, I believe, play like Mark's lovely one of Laz did, or this one does ..... I hope .... :

Sue i am wondering what type of video......

[MarkB]

Sue,

Not sure which of the codes you are trying to post, but I know some of them come up with a message that says something like 'unable to determine size of file' - I use the code next to 'direct link' that seems to work OK.

Nanny - it's a video of my lot enjoying some catmint in the evening sunshine. Or it would be if I could post it!

Helen - though I'd got it, but who exactly do I post it to? Sorry for being a numpty about this! To add to the hilarity my 'pooter is acting up again this morning.

Mark - I tried that and it said 'copied', I don't know where it's copied to! Or for that matter, what was copied.

Dur.

[MarkB]

Sue, it will have just copied the code onto your 'cipboard'

All you need to do is click on a new line under your message on Catchat and then right-click and select 'paste' and the code will show on here - hope that makes sense.

Eureka! Thanks Mark - and Helen!

[MarkB]

Where is it then?

[Crewella]

Yay! Sussed it I see!
