    I recently created a hoplink for a product and accessed it through my hoplink and pulled up the site. The site has some videos on it that would be awesome on my lens. I went and created my lens and tried to copy and paste the video, that didn't work.

    I tried to upload the video on to my PC and then upload it into a video module. Link not recognized [IMG]

    It is even possible to transfer the video on the products site to my lens?

    I would appreciate any help with this one.
    Thanx in advance

    Hi Gridellas,

    If the video is available on YouTube (double click it to see if it opens up in YouTube):

    Add a YouTube module to your lens. Place the link code from YouTube in the proper (it's apparent) place within the YouTube module.

    I've never tried it with a non-YouTube vid so I can't tell you how to do that, sorry.

    I tried to double click on the video and it started playing. That was it. I guess they don't have it on you tube [IMG]
    Guess I will have to find another way. Haven't figured out how to get my built in webcam to operate on my laptop to make my own videos. I am going to go and experiment some more with it.

    Thanx,

    If not youtube they might have used some other video processor. I would rather look into the source code of the website and contact the owner for promotion of his site thr' your hoplink.

    Good idea! I will contact the vendor and see what they say. Thanx

    Create a you tube account and upload the video on you tube, then make a link to your lens using the you tube video module.

    I have tried and I can't move the video on the site which makes me think they don't want me using it.
