Gopro/Dropbox

[fifthwheel]

Off topic a bit, I am struggling to see how to upload my days riding footage from Gopro. I am planning a bit of a jolly in May, I want to upload photos and videos to a motorhome forum and also here if anybody is interested.

Its easy enough to upload my pics and vids from my android phone but I want to use my Gopro as its only a few weeks old. The Gopro has very big files and even if I resize them they are too big and will not load onto the forum if I use the "attach here" box.

What I need is a link for members to click on to see big files. I have spent hours on youtube and google and am almost beaten. I have google drive, a resizer, and the gopro quik app with subscription. If I upload from gopro quik app I have a few options to send to but I want to copy a link and post it at the end of my text on the forum.  I suppose its a clickable url that I'm after. Iv'e found one or two solutions on Youtube but they are messy and not straightforward.

All the gear but no idea.

You can't upload videos directly to the forum

 

This has been disabled for the reasons you mention! File size. They just take up all the storage space and also kill server resources 

 

You would need to use an external host like YouTube or something and then link them on the forum 

 

Personally I would upload them to YouTube and link them to all the places you would like from there and then that way if you remove the video for whatever reason it will remove it in all locations
