Hi Gerald. I got that message on the webpage when I refreshed it that I sent in the previous message. Even after I changed the code again to the shortened one you gave just now and it still doesn't work the video file when checking the webpage. Would a mp4 file from iMovie work though? I thought that would be a reliable source with it been from Apple? Or is handbrake necessary?
I feel a bit stuck here....once its resolved I can save the template and use it for loads of other things but this is breaking my head in two this as I cant advance! lol Oh dear lord <(...
