Video posting

[Mat]

I want to be able to add some short video clips to my Journal. Can anyone give me some pointers that a beginner can understand? I'm pretty sure my camera records in HD. I would ideally like to end up with a small video window with a play button icon in the middle. I've got a photo bucket account which is great for photos but when I copy and paste video from this only a link appears. Any help will be really appreciated.

Mine didnt work from photobucket either mate. It does work from youtube though. Do you have a youtube account ? They are easy enough to set up. Once you have uploaded your video you just click on "share" > "options" check the "long link" checkbox and in the field just above it adjusts the URL to be one that will embed for you. Then you copy that URL and paste it into the text you type on a thread on here 🙂

Cheers Antipofish,

I've now set up a Youtube account and all sussed. I actually just play the video I want to use, right click over it while it's running and then select the top option - copy URL (I think). I then just pasted this into the post - "Discovery Channel", in Journals.

Regards,

Mat
