  1. Hi all .

    I am trying to upload a video but message comes up saying file too large. Now I am a complete computer numty so have no idea how I make the file smaller, but I know most of you do, so thanks in advance for your help.


    Best

  2. Is the video on a hard drive or a platform like YouTube?

  3. The easiest method to show a video on here is have it uploaded to a hosting site. Such as Vimeo/youtube/bitchute; then you simply select a share link from those sites. Copy that link & post into a message on here using the 'Media' icon, which will then prompt you to paste the link.

    You could use the test forum for this, this site only stores photos. My own couple of videos in my albums are from vimeo.

  5. Upload video file to hosting site
    Make sure the hosting site has the file uploaded & playable
    Copy the 'share video' link not the URL web-page.
    Visit this site & make a post in test section.
    Select after making text stating whats-what...(a new line of text effectively) the 'Media' icon & paste your video hosting link.
    Post thread/message...and see if it works
