Attaching MP4 extension

Rob99 · 08-14-2023, 09:08 AM

Anyone know a way to attach a MP4 extension format video clip to a post?
Or the forum doesn't support that type??
Thanks.

No way I would click on a random MP4 file.

Hmm and why is that? not a techy, but just took a quick video of my car with my phone.

Doesn't look like mp4's is an acceptable attachment file type. When you click on "Attachments" when making a post, down below it shows a list of allowed file types and mp4 is not one of them. If you want to post a vid, you will have to upload it to youtube or some other video sharing website and post a link.

@ gtstorey, Mr Draco,
Ahh i see thanks for the quick reply & tips,
I've found this
''MP4s can also be converted to other video types like MOV or AVI with Any Video Converter''
have to see if there allowed here.
Thanks..

Yea just looked at the formats allowed i don't see the MOV or AVI as being a choice

Update, I just linked it to YT all done.
