Hi everyone. I have finally uploaded a few videos to the site since getting my Intova IC10 camera a few weeks ago. I wanted to share with all who do not know, how to embed a video to be able to watch it when a fellow Divebuddy wants to view your videos. 

1. Go to the Quick Links drop down menu located in the upper right hand corner of the web page.

2. Choose Add New Video, which will take you to the correct page.

3. Choose a Video name. 

4. Locate the video you want to share, for example a youtube video. There will be information on the right side of the video, URL and Embed. Copy the Embed code. 

5. Paste the copied code info the Video Code field then Upload. 

This will give you an embedded video that appears when someone clicks on your video links, instead of a web address that has to be copied and pasted into your browser. It took me two times to post mine correctly! Enjoy

Ron, thanks so much for posting this! Even being Greg’s wife, I had no idea how to do it or explain it to anyone. You MAY want to add it as a forum topic if you haven’t. I think forums are a bit more active than blogs, but I could be wrong. Take care.
