Page History
RescueGroups.org supports two kinds of videos for animals:
- Video File: a video file from your computer that is uploaded to the animal in your RescueGroups.org pet list
- YouTube Video URL: the URL of a video on YouTube that you have already uploaded
...
How videos are uploaded
The video file and YouTube video URL are treated differently depending on the adoption listing web site. When you upload a video file to us, we will automatically upload the video to YouTube so you can take advantage of the capabilities of both types of video. If you don’t want us to automatically handle the YouTube upload for you, you can disable that feature in Animals > Animal Settings > Export Settings (look for the setting "YouTube video upload").
Adoption websites that support videos
Here is how the adoption listing websites and exports support videos:
...

The RescueGroups.org website service will not display video files that have been uploaded. Only YouTube videos will be shown on the public animal web page. Your RescueGroups.org account can automatically upload to YouTube all video files that you upload to an animal. Be sure to enable the option under Animals > Exports > Settings. |
