do I download videos?
While we do not support downloading, you can save
videos in your favorites for future viewing. Simply
click the 'add to favorites' button that is shown
below a video when it's playing.

- What are
tags?
Tags are basically keywords that describe your videos.
Like, if you have a surfing video, you might choose
to tag it with 'surfing,' 'water' and 'waves.' Other
users that enjoy watching s urfing videos can then
search for 'surfing' and your video will pop up
in their search results.

Uploading and Making Videos:
- How do
I make a video? For starters you'll
need to have a digital camera or some way to create
and capture the movies somehow. Then, once you have
created a movie of your own you can edit it or add
music. We encourage you to edit your videos with
software such as Windows MovieMaker (included with
every Windows installation), or Apple iMovie. Using
these programs you can easily edit your videos,
add soundtracks, etc.

- What is this
.MSWMM file? How do I create a movie with Windows
Movie Maker?
A .MSWMM file is a Windows Movie Maker Project file.
By saving the project, it allows you to return to
the movide and make modifications at a later time.
However, if you're satisfied with the movie and
would like to upload and share the result through Media Treasure , you will need to choose the "Save Movie
File" option under the "File" menu (which is different
from "Save Project" that creates the .MSWMM file).
top
- What
kind of videos can I upload?
We accept any type of video content as long as it
does not contain:
- Pornography or obscene material
- Copyrighted content (unless
you own all the necessary rights)
- Hate or graphically violent
acts
top
- How
long will my video take to upload?
Depending on your connection speed and the size
of the video, it can take anywhere from a few minutes
to several hours to upload a video. Generally, if
you have a high speed internet connection you can
expect the upload to take somewhere between 1-5mins
for every 1MB, so if your video is 20MB it will
probably take between 20 minutes - 1 hour to upload;
however, theexperience is different for every user
because of the variation in connection speeds.

- How can
I improve my videos?
We encourage you to edit your videos with software
such as Windows MovieMaker (included with every
Windows installation), or Apple iMovie. Using these
programs you can easily edit your videos, add soundtracks,
etc.
top
- Is
there a limit to how much I can upload?
The only limit is 100MB per video. We don't have
any limit for the number of videos you upload,and
we don't foresee adding a ceiling anytime in the
future. So, get crankin' and upload as many videos
as you'd like - its more content for the Media Treasure community to enjoy!

Embedding
and Sharing Videos:
-
Can I
make my embedded videos autoplay?
Yes, you can autoplay movies!
You know how there's that embeddable source that's
shown at the bottom of every video, like:
<object width="425" height="350"><param
name="movie" value="http://www.mediatreasure/v/
OdT9z-JjtJk"></param><embed src="http://www.meadiatreasure.com/v/OdT9z-JjtJk"
type="application
/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>
Basically, if you append &autoplay=1 so it
looks like this:
<object width="425" height="350"><param
name="movie" value="http://www.mediatresure.com/v/
OdT9z-JjtJk&autoplay=1"></param><embed
src="http://www.mediatreasure/v/OdT9z-JjtJk&
autoplay=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
width="425" height="350"></embed></object>
That should make the video automatically start
playing.

resolve any differences with them directly. You

that violate our policy guidelines, our review process
is primarily focused on removing adult content or
obvious copyright violations, and is not bulletproof.

Troubleshooting:
- I
can't hear the audio when I'm watching a video,
why?
To make sure that you hear sound while watching
videos, please check the volume controls on your
computer. Also, be sure to increase the volume on
other conventional video players on your computer,
such as Real Player or Windows Media. This may have
an effect on your computer's master volume levels.
Next, check to see if your system meets these requirements
for running the Video Viewer:
- Macromedia Flash Player 7.0+
plug-in
- Windows 2000 or higher with
latest updates installed
- Mac OS X 10.3 or higher
- Firefox 1.1+, IE 5.0+, or Safari
1.0+
- Broadband connection with 500+
Kbps
If your system meets all the requirements, but the
Video Viewer still isn't working properly, please
try troubleshooting with a different browser. Also,
please test the audio on multiple videos.

- My
video is taking forever to upload. Is something
wrong?
Depending on your connection speed and the size
of the video, it can take anywhere from a few minutes
to several hours to upload a video. Generally, if
you have a high speed internet connection you can
expect the upload to take somewhere between 1-5mins
for every 1MB, so if your video is 20MB it will
probably take between 20 minutes - 1 hour to upload;
