Need pointers on "Insert Video" button in blog…

Nothing in the manual. Can someone run through exactly what to do and expect to see come up ≠ both in the url window and code window? I would really appreciate it.

You can either copy and paste a YouTube or Vimeo URL, or put the video embed code in the HTML field.

That's curious because when I set a curser location, then paste my youtube video insertion link and press "Insert" and wait - nothing at all happens. No entering code, no entering youtube link, nothing happens when button is pushed.
User: Paul-RAGESW 7 years ago
Hm, what happens when you preview your post after doing that?

Nothing there, either where one types or in the preview. Click on "insert" does come alive when rolled over, but click does nothing either location.

My issue (again) a snag with Little Snitch, and it didn't notify me, odd. I know youtube says you can upload an audio file so I can explore that variation but is there a code for inserting there to post an mp3?

You need an image and an MP3 file to create a video to upload to YouTube. I haven't had to do this since the bad old iWeb days when I created a YouTube jukebox using their custom player which is probably defunct now!

Use iMovie or Keynote to add an image to an audio track so you can convert it into a .MOV video file. After you’ve converted the file, you can then upload it to YouTube.

Using iMovie...

[1] Adding an image and audio file
Drag an image file from your computer into the project area.
Drag the audio file into the project area

[2] Adjusting the image to fit the audio track
To make sure the file is properly uploaded on YouTube, you’ll need to adjust the duration of the image to match the duration of the audio track on your timeline.
Click the gear menu in the green box
Click Clip Adjustments and copy the numbers under “Source Duration”. This is the length of your audio track.
Next, hover your mouse over the thumbnail of the image, and click the gear that appears (not the gear in the green box)
Select Clip Adjustments
Enter the numbers from the “Source Duration” in Step 2 into the “Duration” field.
Click Done

[3] Saving your file
Click the Share menu
Select Export using QuickTime...
Name your file and click Save

[4] Upload the file to YouTube and get the embed code.
