I'll have to look but I don't think the video link supports facebook. Upload it to YouTube and it will work for sure.

if these file types are not supported then maybe this window should be amended to show the proper supported file types

Its not unavailable, its unavalable for you to see. If your not a friend of the person that links the video, then you can't view it. Thats why it doesn't work.

I don't use FB anymore, so I don't know the details, but can you embed the video as opposed to copying the link?
I know you can with YouTube.

yea still not showing up
It works for me. It will not work for you, you are not FRIENDS with the user that posted the vid link. Therefore his content will not show for you. FB security, thats why it doesn't show.

yes that does make sense, as for my posting issues, my vid is set to public and the link and embedded link do not load trough the video posting icon window, and as I said youtube is not allowing me to upload. Alternatives?

Come on now I can't compete with that video lol, rad tank and vid

I am having tons of issues with technology this day, it's been a while since I've loaded to YouTube and like I said I'm not even able to fully open the upload window there are parts that don't load within the uploader window

I'm at a loss

Thanks for the compliment! What's your youtube user name? I'll take a look at your public profile and see if your video is public.

ummm... I just realized you were not able to upload your video to youtube. While you can't imbed an FB video, you should be able to post a link to it.

On FB pull up your video post and under options, select get link, then copy and paste the link into your forum post. As long as your privacy setting for the video is set to public, anyone clicking the link should be able to view the video.

Here's a link to one of my FB videos:
