Upload a Video

To upload your videos, you just:

  1. Click on the Products>Videos> tab and then on New video.

  2. You can drag and drop the video or click on the Select file button and wait while the file is uploaded.


    Then you complete the information for your video:

  • Write a title for the video and add a description

  • Choose a category or create one.

  • Choose one of the trainers or hosts you added or add one.

  • Add a picture as the thumbnail for the video. Recommended size is 640x480.

  • If you want to offer the video for free, switch it on.

  • If you want to make the video available for purchase or rent, click on the toggles and adjust the price.

  • If you click on Advanced Settings, you can add things like the intensity, equipment needed, and more.

Recommended Quality Settings

Here at Fitune, for the best upload and video playback experience, we recommend following these video encoding and compression guidelines:

  • Format: MP4 (file extension .mp4 is the most recommended format to provide the best user experience)

    • Even though Fitune supports various video formats, not all browsers, programs, and devices can play a particular video format, so MP4 is the safest bet when it comes to video format.

  • Resolution: 1080p/2K or smaller - videos less than 2048x1152p are considered standard (this is also the recommendation for the horizontal ratio)

  • Codec: H.264 video codec (this is the most common codec and supported by almost every device)

  • Frames Per Second: 20 fps - 60 fps (23.98 fps is a good option)

Video compressing reduces a video's file size to improve upload and playback speed without negatively impacting video resolution; at least, that's the goal.
​
It is important to note that large, uncompressed files or files in a different format, like FLV or M4V, will take longer to encode because we essentially need to encode these files in another format to work on older devices. For the most part, they should be okay, but we strongly recommend using the above guidelines when uploading videos to avoid any issues. Read our guide to understand more about different video formats and why we recommend MP4.
