Video Upload For Advanced Users

[chris]

Here I will outline how you can upload a video to the site if you are a little bit technically incline. This post will assume that you have an already basic knowledge of our uploading system.



Lets say you see a video on a site that you would like to post here. A lot of sites, like this one, have embed codes at the bottom of the video.




Look for the box like the one below. In this case it's the first one listed. I circled it in red.





As long as the video has a an extension (the part of that link that comes after the . ) of FLV, WMV, or AVI you can just copy that link right into the upload form on this site





So copy the text that's in that box on the other site and place it here




Then all you have to do is press UPLOAD and the our server will take the video from the other site, upload it, and place it in the post.

That's it!

How do I 'steal' embeded video to save in my library?

There are a few Firefox extensions that can do that. Or go find a program called Replay Media Catcher. That grabs everything =)
