uploading videos

Spokane Falls Club (#6381) is considering video taping speeches and evaluations. A few members feel that seeing themselves in action will help them identify ways to improve.

We have someone who can do the filming. Now the question is, can we upload the video to our website under the "members only" section? If so, how?

Sorry no FTH does not support videos.

We recommend you upload to a service like youtube, or give the file to the member on a thumb drive.

The main issue is *storage*... you cannot *store* videos via your FTH website. Use Youtube (e.g., a youtube channel) or other online storage.

Then you can link to those videos in your website (in a custom page), and you can pull them in via the web page editor's media features. The rich text editor *does* support YouTube videos and other types of media.

How secure is the YouTube storage? Members don't want just anyone to see their videos.

I think you can password protect and do a private YouTube channel. I am not certain on that. I would google "private youtube channel" and see what comes up.

Nothing on the internet is really secure, read the news.

You can have unlisted videos on youtube, but that just means you have to know the url to find them, but people try random access coeds to find unlisted videos.

If your members want them secure hand them a thumb drive with the video.
