Can you post wmv by using a link and if so how?

[jw]

I am thinking that you cannot post wmv's as I see they are too large for attachments but is there a way to make them a link so you can just post in the body of the message? Thanks if you can help  .

Janice:

Without knowing the details of this site, one way of doing this is to upload to a specialty site like Photobucket, then linking from there.  That will work, I am pretty sure; I have done that with other forums.

The old standbye is youtube, of course, but I prefer Photobucket.

Thanks Steve, This was just a wmv that somebody made and  sent to me in an email that I have to open with a program and  I wanted to post on the forum but it keeps saying it is too large as an attachment. I assumed that I would have to make it into a link to post. Don't have Photobucket and not going to pay just to do this little thing and I didn't make the video anyway. I don't have a link for it so that's why I was wondering how do you make one? Anyways thanks for the info. Janice

I've tried and have never been able to do it. Something has changed on my PC and now when I try to open a wav file, it says "There is no association to play this file, go to set associations in control panel." When I enter that in help, it tells me to right click on the file and choose "Open with" that choice is not there.

Bullfrog this is a Windows Media Audio/Video file not a wave file...........aren't they different? I can open it just fine, it's just that I can't post it as it's too large to use as an attachment on the forum so I wanted to create a link for it but don't know how as I didn't make the video.

You can embed a video file in a forum that uses HTML, but not bbs (or whatever it's called that this one uses).  The easiest way to tell is if you use brackets [] or <> for coding, this one uses [] so you can't embed a video file (as far as I know).

If you have the URL, you can just post a link to it, so the video has to be on the internet somewhere instead of on your PC.

Janice, my far fingers hit the wrong keys. I meant wmv file. I used to be able to just click on them and they would play but somehow the association got messed up and I have to reset it.

Photobucket is not a software package, sorry I did not explain that.  It is a picture hosting site, and it is free.  www.photobucket.com  You upload videos and pictures to their server and then you can link them to other sites/forums.  Give it a look/see!

Thanks everyone and I will check out the photobucket site for the free usage............I think I was thinking of photoshop when I said what I said about costing. The video has no url as it was made by a friend who sent it to me by email.
Bullfrog, I get a newsletter from Kim Komando and this was in it one week:

Changing your file associations


4/15/2009

Q. I just bought a new computer with Windows Vista. No complaints, except for opening e-mail attachments. I get the following message: "This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action.  Create an association in the Set Associations Control panel." I can't find this panel! Also, for some reason, my pictures open in Microsoft Word.. Any help with these problems?

A. Both of these problems are easy to fix. Your two problems are actually one in the same. Your file associations are all mixed up.

Windows uses file associations to tie file types to specific programs. Each file type needs an association. So, when you double-click a file, it opens in the correct program. These various associations are often set up automatically. But they can be changed.

Your file associations were either set up wrong or changed. As your error message said, you can fix this. There is a file association control panel in Vista. But it can be hard to find. Don't worry. There's an easier way.

First, find the file you want to open. Choose one of the pictures you're having trouble with. Or save one of those e-mail attachments to the desktop. Right-click the file. Select Open With>>Choose Default Program. You'll see a list of programs. Select the program you want to use. Or hit Browse to add a program to the list. Be sure to check the box labeled "Always use the selected program to open this kind of file." Click OK.

Windows XP

The process is almost the same in Windows XP. Right-click the file and select Open With. You can select a suggested program. Or, click Browse to find the program you want. Select "Always use the selected program to open this kind of file" and click OK.

You may already know what program to use for your files. You may have installed a program for that purpose. If not, I can help.

Let's start with your pictures, which seem to like Microsoft Word. Both Windows XP and Vista have a built-in photo-viewing program. In Vista, use Windows Photo Gallery. In XP, use Windows Picture and Fax Viewer.

What about other files?
• If they're office documents, use the proper Microsoft Office program. Or use the free OpenOffice.org.
• If they're PDF files, use Adobe Reader. Or try Foxit Reader or Sumatra.
• Maybe someone is sending you Flash video files. These can be difficult to open. Try the VLC Media Player or Riva FLV Player. Both are free.

Doing it the hard way

If you prefer, you can use the Set Associations window. Vista does a good job of hiding it. To find it, click Start>>Control Panel. In the left of the Control Panel window, select Classic View.

Double-click Default Programs. In the next window, click "Associate a file type or protocol with a program." That will take you to the Set Associations window.

To change an association, find the correct extension in the left column. Click it, then click "Change program…" When you finish, click Close.

That strikes me as the hard way to fix an association. But some people like to burrow into Windows.
