Questions
Can I upload a video file?
No. The library uses YouTube links only. Upload to YouTube first, then add the link.
Who can see a video on the public website?
Anyone with the link or who finds it on Google, without signing in. Only switch it on for videos meant for everyone.
What does Link broken mean?
The video is no longer available on YouTube (removed or made private). Fix it on YouTube or remove it here.
