Help with U tube

[Brian D]

I have been trying for 2 days to upload videos taken on my camera to u tube. After going through the motions the browser just goes on saying uploading but doing nothing.

Any suggestions?

you might need to make them into another format first, and within youtubes size limits.. i use a program called AVS video converter.. works well..

Thanks, what format do I use?

Sorry

I'm no expert Brian, but I think you need to convert to a "*.flv" where * = the file name.

I think Youtube can handle some conversions.

Like Planetfonz I downloaded the AVS program to do the converting, but it creates a watermark across the video every 15 seconds or so. That's because it's a freebie. So it's removed once you pay for the full version or find a crack to download if you're into theft. :whistle:

I used it to convert some footage from our Rainbow trip and the watermark appeared just as we did a group bumflash and the watermark covered up Jeff F's crack, which was, ironically, a good thing - not getting the crack to show the crack:blink: :laugh:

I had to photoshop a still from the video to produce this - [img size=479]http://www.australianfishing.com.au/media/kunena/attachments/legacy/images/Group_flash_and_whip_1-a3b3e93a507c322707db87e94e460763.jpg
