Best place to upload a 21 minute slideshow

Postby Kathbc » Thu Jul 25, 2013 3:56 pm

Hi everyone! A newbie here. :D

Just finished putting together my 1st slideshow which totals 21 minutes and is too long in length for Youtube.

The goal is to share the link with friends and I'd prefer not to use Facebook.

Any suggestions other than shortening the slideshow (not possible!)

Has anyone had experience with vimeo?

Thanks!

The old time limits were short, yes. But things have changed. Though I don't upload long shows I don't have that kind of limit any longer. I think you can get around that if you stick to the terms of use, etc.

Here is the latest YT video time limits information:

There are others here that use Vimeo who will hopefully share their experience with that, which has its own Terms Of Use.

You can use Handbrake to make quality videos smaller in size, while keeping the quality. It is a free tool.

Also, if you have a gmail account, you can use the "My Drive" feature that stores up to 15 gigs of pictures, videos etc., you can share the link with your friends.

Hi Joanne,

Small in size as far as file goes or viewing size? I know my friends will want to see it on a large flat screen TV.

If your friends want to watch on TV, then you might be better off rendering the show to DVD, and giving your friends disks that they can run in their DVD players.

You're doomed! :shock:

Well, not really.You could see which TV format is used in the various countries and then burn DVDs accordingly. As far as I know, there are only two of those formats: NTSC and PAL.
