RE: TUTORIAL: How to upload a Video in Dtube the Steemit channel
I am having that exact same issue right now. i uploaded a video twice to dtube and when I try to watch it it will not play. The first time it did tht I deleted the vid and posted again and this time did it 480p. Uploaded went to go watch same thing...I just hope it does not stay like that and hopefully other people who see the video see it as normal or else I am gonna be quite upset.
One other option we have for videos here is to produce our videos on YouTube and then embed them in a Steemit post. That's what I'm considering doing at when DTube is acting up and wont cooperate.
yeah I noticed some people when they post here they embed the videos from youtube to here to do the videos. Hmm these past few days I have been adjusting to how Dtube works though so I have been pretty okay with using that these days I haven`t been having much issues with it heh guess that day was just a bad day for it.
How do you embed the videos from You tube ? can't seem to upload, so thinking this might be an option for me
You can just grab the link for your youtube videos from the watch page by clicking the share button below each video. You can also copy the share URL from the video manager by going to info & settings for each video, there will be a link there.
I'm having trouble with uploading videos on DTube a lot lately myself. The days I can't get it to work I may just stick with making blog posts on steemit and embedding the video fro youtube as well.
Many thanks for responding. I eventually managed to upload one video on Opera instead of Chrome browser, but it is handy to know about the Youtube option.
What are the advanced settings for ?
The IPFS 480 is the re-encoded video, which seems to stream a bit faster than the original file. But this encoding is only available for videos that are 20 minutes or less.
It seems that you'll likely run into less problems with smaller file sizes than with larger ones with DTube.
The issues with DTube have been so bad though lately, not sure when they will fix these problems.
I uploaded a new video to youtube today and just stuck with doing a new blog post for it on Steemit.
Its too bad we're having issues too, because DTube is a such a great concept, I really want to see it work.
