Sharing videos

[Girevik]

I'm trying to figure out how to share videos shot on the Captivate. When I go into video viewer and hit "Share", I've tried it both with the yahoo mail and and with Youtube.

With the mail ap, it either seems to save it to drafts, or not send the e-mail along with it. For YouTube, it's trying to send it using some gmail address I'm not even sure I set up and not the Yahoo e-mail I have my Youtube set up under. What's the best way to share the videos?

It won't send if the file is to big. Try lowering the resolution:
Go in your video recorder mode.
Tap the settings icon,
Lower the resolution to 640x483 or lower depending on how long the video is. Remember it is set at 720 so that'll be a bigger file.

Can that be done after a video is shot, or just for future videos?

You could install dropbox on the phone ... it will accept your full video (no downsizing) and then you can transfer it to any computer connected to your dropbox account or via a public dropbox URL for that file ...

I think I see what's happening with YouTube. When I first connected to Market Place, it wanted a Gmail ID. I mis-typed the ID at first, and that bad ID is what it's using for YouTube. When I try to log in and do "Add Account", I'm able to log into my Youtube account linked to my Yahoo, but it never seems to remember it. Every time I log in I have to do "add acount". Because of that, when I try to share the file it's only pulling in the invalid gmail address.

Any idea how I can get my real e-mail account saved to YouTube?
