I've posted a few video from our latest trip using this method and it really is easy to do.

The only issue is if you are using a broadband connection uploading the video originally to YouTube can use a huge amount of data. A three minute video from my dashcam is about 450Mb. The size of the file can be reduced if you convert it to mp4 first before uploading it. I've used several apps and currently use one called Youcut Video Editor but there are many alternatives. Some are just converters but an editor is better so you can trim the start and finish if necessary if only to reduce the file size. Youcut also allows you to save the file in a lower definition which saves even more data.

I just righthand mouse click anywhere on the YouTube video and then click on "Copy video URL" then righthand mouse click on the Funster post where I want to position the video and click paste.

A true artist at work, with a God given talent. Just stunning. :gum:

On Android phone, I open google
Type in you tube video and (title of music or video wanted)

Open it
When it opens o to the bent arrow in top right hand corner of the video screen (send to)
Various options open up underneath.
Choose the rectangle.. Like a page.. Copy link

Then go to the thread on MHF and click where you want video and paste.
The url comes up but once you post it opens the video.

Not the quickest way but the easiest.

IF YOU MEAN YOUR OWN VIDEO it has to be downloaded to your u tube app first.. and do it via attach files.
