Where is your video uploaded? Youtube?

Unfortunately you cannot post a video directly to this forum (true for all forums I have ever been a part of). You need to upload it to another side such as YouTube or Vimeo. Then you can link to it on the forum.
Many forums make you do this even for photos as well.

Dave, hopefully this will help.1. Take your video with whatever device you use.2. If you don't have one already, open a free YouTube account.3. (Optional depending on your device) Down your video to your computer. (If video is on your phone you can leave it there)4. On your YouTube page, click the "Create" button, then follow the instructions. (it's the little camera icon with the +)

5. Once your video is uploaded, open it and scroll down to the "Share" link and click it.

6. The window will open, then click "copy". This will copy the link to paste in the forum reply.

7. In "Desktop Mode" (if on a phone) open the reply to the thread. If on your computer click the "Reply" button, not the quick reply.

8. With the reply opened click on the video icon in the reply toolbar.
 9. A window will open with the line to paste your video link. Paste the link you copied from YouTube and click "Insert Video".

Your video will be added to your reply post where you have the cursor placed. Hope this helps!!

PTC can this be added under the technical section so that it remains available?
Thanks
