Hello friends, one of the disadvantages we have in steemit is that there is very little information on the tools to use, and one of them is the dtube channel for sharing videos
Here I bring you one of how to upload videos to dtube the platform of steemit and uploaded published once to our blog
1) first of all we will go and log on to the dtube.video page on the following link
.
2) place our user steemit
.
3) We introduce our posting private key (attention is not the key of steemit, then I explain from where to copy it)
.
4) In this section on the wallet tab in the top menu,
.
5) click on the permissions tab and click on the show private key button, there will show a key of posteo, that is the one that we have to enter, I return and I emphasize "It is not the key of steemit, equally it will give error if they enter The user key "
.
6) click on the cloud to upload video next to our user
.
7) Drag our video to the "drop a file or click ..." box
.
8) select a thumbnail for the video, or click where it says take snap, will automatically take a thumbnail for the video
.
9) We complete the information of the video, Title of the video, description of the video (same as description of a steemit post, and the tags, also 5 as we do in the steemit post, and finally click the submit button
.
10) and Voila! We already have our video published in steemit

I'm having trouble, my video's don't play well...
What format is recommended?
Did you manage to solve your problem? I am having the same issue ... I have uploaded an avi file ...
Nope... still doesn't want to work for me...
i got it to work ,here;s what i did.im running OPERA ,before i load my videos up i use a program called handbrake it compresses the video.Once you have it compressed you use OPERA .Make sure you fill in the tabe space .i use the word FUN then hit enter.Dont submit it till its run the upload.You have to take a snap shot and load that second.Dont forget the steps .Will work 99% of the time.My video are over a half hour long if not more.took me a few days but this will work .My sure youve signed up for it as well Dtube i mean, That can take a week or two to get a reply.go watch my video of me falling 75 feet out of a tree.
i watched your 75 foot tree fall video. WOW! your leg was disgusting!! I can't believe you are walking after this. Was this you or just sharing a video? you are lucky you didnt die.
.avi files do not work. Look up HTML5 video codecs. You need to have the right .mp4 or .webm files.
Your videos need to be in a format that is playable in web browsers (HTML 5 Video). So the files extensions would be .mp4 and .webm. But technically you can store video or audio streams in this container formats that are not playable by browsers. But generally speaking files with this extensions should be fine.
Had anybody been successful uploading to d tube from mobile ?
I did, yes, my very first video was uploaded from my Huawei XT2
Never heard of that I use iPhone and safari doesn’t work I will try chrome and see if it does
I think it wants MP4.
HI there , D tube uses html5 (markup language for structuring and presenting content on the worldwide web). Find some useful information about the video formats that are accepted by such a markup language. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Supported_media_formats
A format that always works for me is mp4 /h.264(audio)
This is your standard format when you export from windows movie maker.Hope this helps
Excellent!.
Followed everything to a "T", yet when I hit submit the icon just rotates like it working but the video never uploads. Let pc sit for 2 hours and still nothing.....very disheartening for sure....
I'm having the same trouble. How big was your file??
Not very, only 3mins video lol
My 40mb video always stuck on step 3 sending to the blochain and neverending loading. video format is 720p mp4 just downloaded from my yt channel. Any idea what im doing wrong or its blockchain fault?
Noticed the same earlier, running the downloaded video through a converted for a different MP4 solved it, didn't like some of my youtube video download conversions for some reason.
Is there a way that I can upload a video without it showing up on my blog page? I wanted to keep my music separate from my motivational blogs
DTube is intimately linked with Steem, and it always posts to your blog. There are a couple ways around this. One is to edit the post with some placeholder text or something. You probably won't get upvotes, and thus not make money on the video.
Another solution is to use a separate account to post the separate videos. Options to do this include signing up with a phone and email you haven't used before, or you can use a service like SteamConnect's account creation tool (you have to pay steem and maybe SP to set it up) or AnonSteem (pay with steem, bitcoin, or litecoin). There are other services, too, but those options are recommended by Steemit.
Under the advanced button, what does the "Power-up 100%" slider do? Do you need to slide it in-order to get paid? is it like the "Rewards Default (50% / 50%)?
I have the same question. Can someone answer it?
I would like to know the answer to this as well
But the videos only display in 480p resolution, which is lame :(
Its 2018 and we have a video sharing platform that's stuck in 2005. How do they expect this platform to grow when video quality is sub-par?
Hmm I am new here just joined recently but is possible that may change at some point the whole 480p res thing. Since this site is still fresh and new and still in beta in many parts they will probably most likely add more after all is done just my guess I may be wrong. But I feel like this setup isn`t forever as more time passes more changes.
I agree, its likely they will smooth these problems out over time. The part I can't stand the most is how DTube crashes like 10X a day. One moment everything is fine, then next videos wont stream, and uploads wont encode.
I am having that exact same issue right now. i uploaded a video twice to dtube and when I try to watch it it will not play. The first time it did tht I deleted the vid and posted again and this time did it 480p. Uploaded went to go watch same thing...I just hope it does not stay like that and hopefully other people who see the video see it as normal or else I am gonna be quite upset.
One other option we have for videos here is to produce our videos on YouTube and then embed them in a Steemit post. That's what I'm considering doing at when DTube is acting up and wont cooperate.
yeah I noticed some people when they post here they embed the videos from youtube to here to do the videos. Hmm these past few days I have been adjusting to how Dtube works though so I have been pretty okay with using that these days I haven`t been having much issues with it heh guess that day was just a bad day for it.
How do you embed the videos from You tube ? can't seem to upload, so thinking this might be an option for me
You can just grab the link for your youtube videos from the watch page by clicking the share button below each video. You can also copy the share URL from the video manager by going to info & settings for each video, there will be a link there.
I'm having trouble with uploading videos on DTube a lot lately myself. The days I can't get it to work I may just stick with making blog posts on steemit and embedding the video fro youtube as well.
I've had no problems uploading videos now, at first l had a problem. I was using Opera Browser with VPN on and was able to upload videos, but not publish them. When I turned off the VPN. I was able to upload videosand pulish them. So people who are using browsers with VPN. Should turn the VPN off to upload videos to D.Tube or use a different browser for uploading D.Tube videos. Only Problem I have now is, I can't edit the video description once a video has uploaded or delete a video, if I wanted to replace it with video with a proper description.
Thank informasion guy, good job

I tried uploading a video yesterday and it never completed the load. After waiting over 30 minutes, I gave up. Is there a way to import videos I already uploaded to YouTube? Thanks.
Go to Firefox apps look for "Easy You Tube Video Downloader" it creates a download button just under the player, also try out an application (for pc) called 4K Video Downloader this will allow 1080 downloading :))
Thanks... will look into that, but the problem is on the upload side to Dtube. I created the videos and already have the files in my computer.
Can be network connection problem, if there is way to upload videos from youtube, tomorrow will do a tutorial about it
ive found the browers are to blame,try firfox if that dont work try Opera
Firefox is my browser and still cannot upload!
try opera
No thanks, I'll wait until all the bugs are gone.

STOPCan we edit (title, description, tags) or delete a video?
Good question it fouled up my thumbnail ("snap") it would be nice to re-upload it and fix it, but I do not see any buttons like that?
Thanks this was really helpful, especially the private key as I had entered my Steemit password and it didn't like this!
I love that it's the same user name as Steemit and not another account to setup.
I've checked your blog for a post on uploading from You Tube and couldn't see one. Is this possible as I'm having issues getting my video to load too! It plays on the screen but shows the 'whirring' icon and an error message.
Thanks for your help! :)
How long it takes to upload a 5 minute MP4 Video with a 16 Mbits Connection
other people also had this problem I just realise
Why the ifps error when upiading a video??
no, this simply does not work!!!!!i m getting error msg for"please upload a snap"
What type of files can be uploaded?
Same here.. I've uploaded the video with MP4 and snap was automatically taken. but errors come up. what'd be the problem? T_T
Same here @wof. I uploaded my entire video, added a snap and then after the upload finished I hit submit, but all I get is "Error Please upload a snap picture" So frustrating!
Hi im having the same problem. Have you solved this?
I get an error about the file type. What can be types can be uploaded?
Thanks Chef for your video, I also am a chef and have just started on Steemit and Dtube. The way of the future hey? Please check out my first video https://dtube.video/#!/v/chefluke/ft7h7yo7
The problem is though the video took forever to load!!..... and now that it is loaded it does not play smoothly like on youtube. It constantly freezes. Is this just s teething problem of the system? Let's see. I have added you on as a friend and will keep up to date with your videos and posts. I am just starting, give me a couple of weeks and I will get it all together. Thanks Chef!
What does the Power Up slider do?
Hello !
If you read this that OK we are connected to SteemIt / Busy !

@Lacher_Prise_
Very helpful post. The video seems to take some time to load. That step three part has been over ten minutes (the block chain).
Awesome! I took me a while to find the "Private Key". Glad I found this post. I am excited to post my first video about the new year resolution!
Happy New Year!
In my case, the submit button (after video information) does not work. What might be the reason?
Same here ... all goes well, but "submit" doesn't work. If giving YT a run for their money is the idea, this whole cumbersome and ultimately failing posting routine is NOT the way to go
You need to allow the entire process to finish then after it renders and creates sprites etc, AFTER ALL THAT IS DONE then you can "submit" Hope this helps anyone :))
Use Firefox or Chrome in Incognito mode on desktop (worked for me on Mac)
Thanks for the helpful information for posting videos at steemit
I've uploaded my videos and i see them in my blog but when i search the title on dtube they're no where to be found... answers anyone?
Maybe I'm doing something wrong but I just made a post now asking what I can do about it. Some technical advice needed. thanx.
When uploading video, it says 'invalid source' when I dropped the vid into the box. Any idea why it says that? Where would be a valid source to place my video, if that is in fact the problem? Thanks in advance.
I get all the way to the summit portion step 3 and I get an error to the blockchain. I read where I needed to us FireFox and not Chrome . So I loaded FireFox and did all that and again got to step 3 and got the same error loading to blockchain message. Do you know anything about this and how to resolve it?
try a new browers,im using oprea
yep i installed Firefox and i had chrome still no luck but I will review this post a bit more. Thank you very much.
thank's for the information
How about upload on android phones?
Thanks for this informative article. I really found it very useful and will copy the link for reference purposes.
@eurogee
Thank you! I needed it!
I have done exactly that but I get a message "Error while submitting to the Blockchain". Anyone knows how to fix that?
no i have been trying everything, but i get the same message ...
Thank you! Short and simple. Here I finally found concrete example of how a video post in dtube looks like in steemit and what is the connection, shoud I make both postings and so on. Good post. Keep going, buddy.
Just one question - what is the best video file format for dTube and have you seen problems with some formats?
Do the video need to be in a specific format? I keep getting an error messages saying it is not a video when I am uploading my videos.
It tries to show you a preview of what you're uploading. However, web browsers support only a few very specific formats, such as MPEG4 with H.264/H.265 + AAC, Ogg with Theora+Vorbis, and WebM with VP8/VP9 + Vorbis/Opus. If your browser doesn't support the combination you give it, it won't be able to show it in the preview. However, DTube will most likely still be able to process the file to generate the 480p version. Viewers probably won't be able to watch the original for the above reason, though they should be able to download it.
I've done all this, and it still doesn't work for me. It won't let me submit.
Hello, I do everything in order and when I click on Publish nothing happens. and no error message
Bonjour, je fais tout dans l'ordre et quand je clic sur Publier il ne se passe rien . et aucun message d erreur
My video takes forever to submit. Why does it do that? I don’t understand ....
@cocinecomounchef I don't know I can't upload any video been trying for for two hours to no avail Its frustrating
Thank you for super tutorial! May I have question: If I publish video on dtube, it is always publish on my Steemit wall at the same time?
It is possible put video just on Dtube?
Thank you so much for answer! @cocinecomounchef
Thanks for that - Just uploaded my first video
I was having trouble uploading videos using chrome, but i switched to opera and uploaded perfectly
Use Opera Browser ! Uploads did not work until I started using Opera
When I click on submit, it says I need to upload a video. Anyone having this issue?
UPDATE: while trying what someone mentioned, about uploading in incognito mode, it got farther. This time I have an IPFS error. Can anyone tell me what that is?
Thanks in advance.
what is the quality of your video ? DTube accept max 720p at the moment, and will only display in 480p for now. I had the IPFS issue when trying to upload a 1080p video. I reencode it to 720p and it went well immediately :)
I believe thats the issue i have then. I have it at 1080 60fps thank you a bunch Cobraguru. Ill have to do that then. Do you think this issue has to do with the block chain?like restrictions maybe?
I've read a blog entry that they just input 720p. they are working hard to improve D.Tube so probably that with time we'll have 1080p. they just take step after step :)
Thank you again for helping me out dude. I really appreciate it
