About
By default, any media you upload is private. To share it with others, you'll need to publish it in a channel or gallery on your Video Portal. Read our step-by-step instructions or watch the video tutorial below.
Publish your media only when file conversion is complete, and the media is not waiting for moderation.
You must have permission to publish to Channels and/or Galleries (Categories). Ask your administrator to give you the required permission.
The instructions below are for non-Theming users. If you have Theming enabled, please refer to our article Publish media - Theming.
