Here's some quick guidance that should make it easier for you to upload videos. This feature is for you to share your creativity and talent with fellow musicians. Entertain us!
- The maximum size to for your video should be 50MB
- The name of your file must not contain any spaces (can can use letters, numbers, the under bar character, and the dash character).
- An odd one: if your video is less than 10 seconds long the icon below the player will not display properly because it taken from the 10th second into the video. So if you want to control what goes there, be sure something nice is in the 10 second spot
- If you use a Mac, create an .mov file (you can use iMovie or Quicktime).
- If you use a Windows computer, create an .wmv (you can use Windows Movie Maker).
- You can also send an .flv file (Adobe Flash video). Most webcams come with software for recording videos. All are fine as long as you can create a .mov or .wmv file with them.
- Make sure you have good light when you make your video.
- If you have a movie or video in a different format, you will need to convert it to either .mov or .wmv before you upload it.
- We are working on expanding the kinds of videos we will accept.
- Once you upload your video, you and other students can watch it on your "My Student Page".
- Be mindful of our Terms of Service. Do not upload copyrighted material and please, no profanity or vulgarity.
- Let's keep this a friendly place! Use your common sense and be supportive of each other!
Of course the PPO reserves the right to remove any videos it deems inappropriate.
