Hi to All,

I would like eagerly to know how to upload a short video clip or a device screen video recorded . I just had an Issue in a location of my contributions in the map, and I wanted to explain this issue via recording a video to my device screen using a screen recorder app. When I am done, there were a difficulties uploading that video !!.

I didn’t know which the correct icon in the editor board to use to upload the video.

Please focus at the screenshot and am eager to know the solution :blush:.

Very Respectfully :pray:.

Osama Zaina.

@Gloire_Congo yes my friend , I’m still waiting from any Googler or any moderators a clear solution to this feature ( uploading video ).

Am angry :rage: I don’t know how to do it ! .

I have a large experience in giving lessons using a recorded video clips to my device screen.

Before I became a LG, I am used to solving a cell phones’ issues apps, apk, Android system. By using a short clip explaining to those friends got a problems with their cellphones. And here in Connect, I would like to do the same way using short clips to get answers or to give answers.

Hello @OSAMA_1 and @Gloire_Congo

We are not able to upload videos directly from our device. If you want to upload your video in connect you need to upload your video on YouTube. After the uploading videos on YouTube copy the URL of your video and paste in video upload option.

Hi @Gloire_Congo and @OSAMA_1

I’ve tried another way like upload videos from my shared album but not getting success. So I’m sure there no any other way to upload videos on connect.
