ADDING A VIDEO
Shooting
A Video: You
will need to use your video camera, digital camera, or even your cell
phone to record your movie. You then download the movie to your computer,
and upload to Videomania. We advise to first edit or compress your video
with software such as Windows MovieMaker or iMovie to add titles and
special effects or just save it in compressed format for speedy uploads.
Uploading:
To upload your video, log in and click on the upload link. Add a title,
description, tags (keywords), and choose the video channel. Channels are
for grouping the same videos together. On the next page browse to and
click the saved movie file, select private or public, and click upload.
Private is for your view only and public is for all viewing.
How
Long Will It Take?
The time it takes to upload depends on the speed of your computer and
Internet connection. If you have a adsl or cable internet connection
uploads will be faster than with dialup. Adsl connections are asymmetric
with a download speed to your computer normally 5x faster than upload to
the internet, so be patient.
When completed, you will see a screen that says, your upload was
successful.
How
can I embed videos from 26th January.com into other sites?
Click on your video and look for the (Share details //) part below the
video player where you will find the codes. Simply copy the url to link to
the page or copy the code from the Embeddable Player and add it to
your web page.
What are tags?
Tags are keywords that describe videos. For example, a video might be
tagged with car, sport, and racing.
Users who enjoy watching racing videos can then search for any of those
words and that video will pop up in their search results. Tags help you
find new videos you might like to watch, and also help you label videos
you upload so that other people can find them more easily.

TROUBLESHOOTING
It
keeps asking me to login, what should I do?
Make sure you have cookies enabled in your browser preferences. If you
have cookies disabled, there is no way for our system to know you were at
the site before, and you will be asked to login.
The videos won't play-what's wrong?
All of the videos on Videomania are streamed through a Flash player, so
you need to have the latest version of Macromedia Flash installed on your
computer. To download it, please visit Adobe.
The video keeps stopping while I'm watching it. How do I fix that?
If a video doesn't play continuously it may be due to your connection
speed. You'll need a broadband connection with at least 500+Kbps for the
best viewing experience.
Why can't I hear the audio when I'm watching a video?
To make sure that you hear sound while watching videos, please check the
volume controls on your computer. Also, be sure to increase the volume on
other conventional video players on your computer, such as Real Player or
Windows Media. This may have an effect on your computer's master volume
levels. Next, check to see if your system meets these requirements for
running the Video Viewer:
Macromedia Flash Player 7.0+ plug-in
Windows 2000/XP with latest updates installed
Mac OS X 10.3 or higher
Firefox 1.1+, IE 5.0+, or Safari 1.0+
Broadband connection with 500+ Kbps
If your system meets all the requirements, but the Video Viewer still
isn't working properly, please try troubleshooting with a different
browser. Also, please test the audio on multiple videos.
My
video is taking a long time to upload. Is something wrong?
Generally, if you have a high-speed internet connection you can expect the
upload to take somewhere between 1-5mins for every 1MB. However, the
experience is different for every user because of the variation in
connection speeds. If your video is very large, it may take a long time to
upload.
