I wanna post my TaW video  
I push add photo/video from library  
I select it  
It says “unsupported file type”, so i try recording it instead of selecting my it from my photo library, and finish, and it gives me the same message

How do you do it?  
I would prefer to add it from my photo library and not add a YouTube video of me doing it or anything  
Thanks

> Yo it would be awesome if in the welcome to the forums info there could be a paragraph about how to embed videos directly onto the forums. This comes up all the time and it would be cool to be able to share a link instead of rewriting the same info. It could say something like, “You can upload videos to YouTube, Imgur, or TikTok and then post a link to that video on its own line with no spaces after and it will embed directly onto the forum.” There might be other platforms that work also but I…

Imgur is easiest.
