    You have to post the videos to a site like you tube and then you can post a sharing link to your posts

    To the best of my knowledge you cant direct load video on this and many other forums. Upload them to youtube then post the link. Super easy to do even from your phone. All you do is open an account which you can open from PC and/or phone.

    Hello,

    My wife had made some quick videos that we wanted to use on a website. We tried all sorts of ways, but the sites would not accept our version as a saved movie file. Her products are all Apple. I had the same problem with digitized movies in the beginning. After editing them, I was ready to post. But websites blocked the uploads.

    All of your photos need to be made as jpeg. The videos need to be converted to the You Tube regulations. But, first, you have to create a You Tube page for your channel. Then as you follow their rules or directions, it converts your videos to their style and now can be played anywhere. (including the HAMB.)

    In the beginning, all of my videos were in the mp4 or MOV. format. They could not be played directly on any website and therefore I had to create my own You Tube channel, J Naki . I had to be able to send my copies to them and their machine changes something to be able to link in any website. (including the HAMB. )

    It is the only way to get them on the any site. My You Tube video films have been used on many different sites. It is not a very large library, but it gets right to the point when displaying a story or facts about hot rod history or early drag racing.

    If you make a mistake uploading or check one of their boxes, you can always go back and make edits. That allows you to get exactly what title and how it will look as a small icon for all to see. If you use the black background, it makes your videos stand out for you to see and make edits or changes later.

    Good Luck and PM me if you need any other form of help. On You Tube, if you make a mistake, it can be deleted. But, make sure there are all grammar corrections and correct spelling, as the whole world sees You Tube.
