Default How to....video???????

Okay...wife got me a nice camera for my B-day,and shot my first video earlier of the 68,and saved it to the computer,then tried to load it on photobucket to bring over here to the forum like I do my photos.No dice.I tried this a couple times,then went back to try to view the video in my computer file,and no preview.I then reloaded the video,and send it to HP Photosmart Premier,and can see the video,but how do I get it here to the forum,or to photobucket,so I can copy it to bring it here?
Be easy....I never claimed to be the sharpest tool in the shed,and this is my first video.I've had the camera for a couple weeks,and JUST learned how to do a video.

A lap around the 4.2 mile road racing track. Just having fun and 155 mph on the main straight. Just smoking my rear slicks

SCCA has passing Zones so I had to follow this trailer queen full race BMW M3 for a little bit

Host your video and then just post a link. My sony camera is 800 meg per minute so I have to reformat down to a poor quality 20 meg or video to post or e-mail

That looks like a fun track!Thanks for the ride.

Guess I need to get one of these little neighborhood kids to show me how to load a video.

It"s pretty much the same as a picture, load to photobucket an then bring it over here the same way you do a pic. I"d say something went wrong try again.

I'm with you! I've very computer literate, and video stupid. I have a bunch of videos I’ve taken to on gauge repairs and other items but I’m too video stupid to get them on our site.

I figure I’ll give it another try when the weather got warmer. So here’s a bump for the video challenged.

If I remember correctly, you need to "name" the video file (ie; Track lap,) before it will download to photobucket. Photobucket will reformat it automatically for viewing. It may take some time to process the file depending on the file size.

Thanks.I did name it,and this am it said that 1 video of 1 was copied,but I couldn't find it.My wife is going to take me out,but will try to mess w/it later.I'm thinking that my computer has too much crap on here,so it is slow,and by the time the video loads...it has lost the signal?????

Thanks again.

Play station? What the heck is that?

I'll have to talk with one of the guys in the back. They have a lingo of their own. Like RU and GR8 And so on. Someone need to write a book on this too!

I had a secretary here over the summer to help me on my web page,and I was running a bunch of stuff here on the forum for sale,and showed her how to find my ads,and bring them to the top.I told here she didn't have to do "TTT",but just something to get the stuff to the top of the page after it has vanished a few pages,and I left it at that.She puts "yep yep".Which isn't really okay,but not too bad,but......Someone was asking about some exhaust in the ZO6 section...a question...,and her reply was "yep yep".
