Posting short video?

[Alphonse]

Is there anyway to load a short video clip onto the site?

I know I can link to YouTube, etc. but is there a way to upload a 20 second clip here?

I searched in the Help section without success on this topic. Could have missed it due to my impatience!

Pretty sure you need a host site such as YouTube since it requires a URL to attach.

[raywjohnson]

Sorry but videos cannot be attached/uploaded.

You can create a YouTube account and upload there, then link here.

Or Vimeo

So I learn, why Vimeo and not YouTube? Both appear to require an account.

[raywjohnson]

That is just up to you. I hear Youtube is easier to work with.

[Alphonse]

Thanks Ray and Jerod. That was what I feared.

Might want to consider putting this in the Help section or did I miss it?

[raywjohnson]

You did not miss it. It is not there. I will see about adding that. Or Huskee will.

That would be a welcome addition to the help section. I had to ask also as to how to upload a video. Instructions should be clear and easy to follow. I found U tube to be easier to navigate and use than Vimeo.

Panhead John, Does't Vimeo charge a significant subscription fee?

[Panhead John]

They have a free edition which I just tried today, it has ads and does work to post videos to our site. But I found it cumbersome and more difficult to navigate than YouTube. I’m no Bill Gates, but I liked YouTube better myself. There was also constant pop ups to upgrade.
