OMG! I'm a genius!

Okay, I'm totally exaggerating (obvs!), but I'm mighty pleased with myself for sorting out this video business. It's a great reminder to myself that when you hit a brick wall, which often seems to happen when you are learning a new technology, to just try a new approach.

So initially I thought I had uploaded the video from two posts ago (see here), but then I kept getting an error message and funny static. So - what to do? Well, there was actually a link with the error message - "Learn More" it said, which of course I followed but that wasn't much help at all - just IT troubleshooting 101 stuff - turn the computer off and on etc. None of that seemed right, so I tried reposting it from other computers and devices - still no cigar.

Anyhoo, eventually I decided to cut out the middle man and created a You Tube account, uploaded the footage there, then downloaded it to the blog SORTED!

So the take-home message here - just keep plugging away, try different approaches, try a work-around, give it a go. And mostly, I find, you will get there in the end.
