Resolved Post a .mp4 file?

[extropic]

I checked and the file is a .mp4 (not .gif).

I tried to follow the instruction @vtcnc provided Auaki in my previous "How-To" thread but . . .

How do I locate my media album on H-M (so I can upload the .mp4 to it)?

Help! I've fallen and I can't get up.

You are keeping me on my toes! Good thing, I need the exercise, Stuffing Day is on the near horizon.

I'm going to do a How-To instruction on these two questions you ask and post them there.

@vtcnc
Looks like great instructions.

I'm still having a problem. What am I doing wrong?

When I preform step 5, and press the Save button, I get a popup error message as follows:

Oops! We ran into some problems.

There is a problem with uploading videos. I'm not sure exactly what it is, but images can be uploaded without incident. I've put in a support ticket with the developer.

Support appears to have fixed the problem. @extropic pleaes try again. I've been able to successfully upload a video. Please give it a try.
