  • Adding Links to my video

    Posted by Marco Aguilar on February 24, 2012 at 7:00 pm

    Anyone out there know how I can add links to my videos before exporting to youtube? I want to export the video with the links already embedded. Is that possible? I know about LinkedTube but that doesn’t seem to be what I want.

    I don’t think it’s possible, Marco. Links have to be coded into a webpage (which is what the LinkedTube feature does.) It can’t be coded into the video itself.
    Someone else–much smarter than I–may have a way, but I think I’m correct.

    Of course, you can always include a clip in your video that shows a web address. It’s just that it won’t be “clickable”.

    You can add a clickable link via compressor. I’ve done it once before but I don’t remember how. I learned this through a compressor tutorial from Ripple Training.

    Will probably get stripped when YouTube reencodes the file.
