How to post 59.3 mb .MOV video
« on: April 24, 2025, 02:37:49 pm »
I tried to post a 59.3 mb .MOV from my Apple iPhone yesterday and couldn't get it to "post".  I don't see that file format listed but checked earlier videos and thought they were .mov which posted okay. Or is the combination of my short introduction and the movie more than the 612000 kb limit?  Any help would be appreciated.
Regards,
Larry

Haven't gotten a reply to my question yet which is surprising. Doesn't the forum have someone who knows about these kind of things or am I posting in the wrong area?

Typical for video to be uploaded to youtube then have link to vid in post. At least that it what has worked for me.

Thanks for the reply - I just thought that now I could upload direct without going through YouTube.

Hi Larry, There is no video upload feature in our forum.

Must upload to YouTube or similar.

YouTube is by far the easiest method and they can "unbox" just about any kind of video file.

Sorry I didn’t see this sooner Larry, YouTube is all I’ve ever found to work good on the forums too…
