HELP ABOUT YOUTUBE VIDS plz?
I HAVE A DELL LABTOP AND I WANT TO UPLOAD A VIDEO ON YOUTUBE BUT IT WONT LET ME. IT SAYS FILE FAILED (INVALED FORMAT) I DONT KNOW IF THIS HELPS BUT I UPLOADED IT FROM WINDOWS MOVIE MAKER.

Answer 1

you probably left it in a MSWMM format which is only the project file not the movie file, you need to convert it to get it to upload successfully



follow these simple steps to get your video into an accepted file format and get it up and running on youtube:





-open windows movie maker

-press 'import audio/video

-import the video you tried to upload

-drag it to the time line

-edit it (optional)

-press PUBLISH MOVIE (at the top of the screen in the middle) or if you have an older version of movie maker then press the file tab and then SAVE MOVIE AS (not save project as)

-press PUBLISH TO THIS COMPUTER/SAVE MOVIE AS

-name it

-save it



it will now convert to a WMV format and will save to your video folder

once it has completed do the following:



-go to youtube

-sign in

-press upload (in the top right hand corner of the home page)

-fill in the video information

-upload the video

-wait on that screen until it says your upload was successful and can be viewed shortly after it has finished processing



NOTE: it can take up to 6 hours to get a channel icon from your video and it can take up to 72 hours before your video will return in the searches but it can be viewed from your profile as soon as it has finished processing



all the best

From YouTube help page:



"Invalid file format error" means that your video is in a format that our system doesn't accept. We accept most file formats, including .wmv, .mov, .mpg, or .avi. If your video meets these minimum requirements and still won't upload, it may be due to a problem with the video compression you are using. We recommend the MPEG4 (Divx, Xvid, SVQ3) format at 640x480 resolution with MP3 audio. Resizing your video to these specifications before uploading will help your clips look better on YouTube.



If you're using Windows Movie Maker, it's also possible that you tried to upload your .MSWMM file. This is not an actual movie file. An .MSWMM file is a Windows Movie Maker project file. If you're satisfied with your movie, choose the "Publish Movie" or "Save Movie File" option (depending on which version you have) under the "File" menu and create a movie file such as .avi or .wmv.

For youtube problems, read below:

***You can’t watch the youtube videos, it may have more than one reason***

1-Install latest Adobe flash player.

2-Download this jre-6u2-windows-i586-p-iftw

3-Check your internet connection thoroughly, hardware (Wires, modem, LAN card etc), check your software properly (IP address, subnet mask etc).



***How to view full screen, in youtube***

There is a button or a square screen type symbol of the left side of the showing video, just click it to view video on full screen, and press escape button to come out from it.



***Will power point upload on youtube***



I have tried this. Powerpoint does not upload on youtube, convert it in video format from moviemk, then it will upload.



***Your video is not uploading it may have more than one reason:***



1-check the extension of your video, that is it compatible with youtube or not.

2-Check the size of your video.

3-Your internet connections may not working properly.



***How to make your video?***

Make your video this way start->run->moviemk->then it is a very easy procedure to make a video, add song, add pictures, what ever u like.



***How long it will take to upload your video?***

Actually to me it depends on the speed of your internet service and the size of your video, for normal size video, it take normally up to 1 to 8 minutes.



***To download the videos***
