FAQs

What can I upload?

 

You may upload any video, audio, or image that relates to paranormal research in some way. It can be evidence you captured in the field, mini-documentaries, how-to's, etc. Please upload your media to the proper category.


Can I upload adult material (porn, nudity, etc)?

 

Please don't.


What file types are accepted?

 

Allowed file types are:

 

Video: flv, wmv, mov, mpg, avi, mpeg, mp4, 3gp, rm, asf


Images:
jpg, gif, bmp, png


Audios:
mp3, midi, mid, wav, wma


Games:
swf


How big/long can my videos/images/audios be?

 

The maximum file size for uploading is 100MB. The length doesn't matter as long as your file is no larger than 100MB.

 

You may want to compress your video using Windows Movie Maker (free with Windows) or another video editor so that it fits the size requirement.

 

Audios can be compressed by exporting them as an mp3. In some cases, a wav file may be smaller. Audacity is a free audio editor that you can use for this purpose.


Why is there no sound with my video upload?

 

The conversion process to flv on some videos fails due to older codecs that were used when the video was initially made. Some older wmv files are this way. However, it is not necessarily limited to older codecs.

 

Try using a video editor to recompile (export) the video to see if the problem is corrected.


How do I embed YouTube and other videos?

 

Simply click on the upload tab and paste the embed code from another site into the appropriate box. You will also need to post the URL for the thumbnail, otherwise your video thumbnail will be blank (see next question to do this).


How do I embed the video thumbnail from YouTube?

 

You need to add the video file name to the URL and then paste it in the appropriate field on the upload page. This is not as hard as it may sound. For example, you would like to embed this video :

<object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/WZccz5cy3ks&hl=en"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/WZccz5cy3ks&hl=en" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object>

This is your video file:
WZccz5cy3ks

The youtube thumbnail directory is:

http://i.ytimg.com/vi/Place Video File ID Here/default.jpg

Paste the video file name in the proper place in the URL immediately above so that it would look like this:

http://i.ytimg.com/vi/WZccz5cy3ks/default.jpg.

This now becomes your thumbnail URL for the ParaZoneTV upload page.
 


Can my research team have a private group for media files?

 

Yes! Simply click on the Groups Tab and create your group. It can be public or private.
